Hi,
while trying to rearrange my program screen (via creating new sub-folders and cut and paste the links to these new folders)
on the HTC HD2 I "lost" the icon for the HTC_Calender program
I now only have a white/blue general folder like icon now.
The link is working though, HTC Calender starts.
Anybody knows, how I can rearange the correct icon for the link ?
The icon itself seems to be apparent in the /windows folder
as HTC_calendar.?
Thx for help

Try a soft reset, if you haven't done one yet.
Install the program JWMD Icon Changer and find the calender icon and select it to load to default icon.

Anybody know how we can see all icons (and index) in shellres.dll file especially icons to change folder icons in menu start?
Icons for Games folder in menu start is:
1#shellres.dll,-8229
Icons for Office folder in menu start is:
1#officeres.dll,-7690
Is there any chance to see index of all icons in shellres.dll file? Perhaps do we know some folder icons, like this for game or office folder (standard folder icons with little addon)?
I've used PE Explorer to index all of these

Can you explain me how did found index of all icons in shellres.dll?
Did you found icon for Game folder in menu start?
So could I change the icon for a certain program like this?
I downloaded a game but it has an ugly icon that doesn't even look right with the game. I got a different icon I use with ultimatelaunch but it still shows the ugly icon in the recent programs list & the games folder. I would like it to show the icon I downloaded

The icon on the game folder is a file .icon that is hidden. If you use total commander and set it to show hidden files, you'll see it.

You can't just change the icon. Applications need to be digitally signed. If you change the icon, it will lose its signature, meaning it will give an error on startup. You'll need to unsign it first, change its icon using PE Explorer and signing it back.
Can you share your shellres.dll file?

I just installed the official ROM for Topaz which brings us Sense 2.5. Now, I have changed all my icons on the whole phone to new ones but when I add one as quicklink in Sense it just shows the default one.
What can I do about this?
ArtieQ, you can find the icon path for the quick links in File Explorer->Application Data->HTC->ProgramLauncher. Those override the icons in the start menu. That would be one place to start. You could try deleting the default icon there and the icon you are using in your start menu should work. Be sure to backup/copy the default before deleting it.
The icons that don't show up is not in the ProgLauncher folder, why's that? Can't seem to fix this..
The way I've done it in the past is to delete the icon in programlauncher. HTC presets those icons to appear in quicklinks for the programs listed in that folder. All other programs use the icon in the startmenu. If you install new icons, they will not go into the programlauncher folder. So, if you see the icon you installed in the startmenu try deleting the associated default icon in programlauncher. For example, I wanted to use the google maps icon in the startmenu instead of the default one used by HTC in quicklinks. So I deleted the googlemaps icon in programlauncher and it then defaulted to the one in my startmenu.
By moving around the application shortcuts in start menu I lost accidentaly
the icons for HTC Music, HTC People, HTC Calendar & HTC Calculator. Now only
.exe Icons are shown. The Links get restored automatically ater reset but with labels with "_" shown between HTC and name of the app, like. "HTC_Contats".
I know that icon pictures of the mentioned icon links are located in Windows directory, but how can I restore them to be shown correctly in the Start Menu & HTC Sense Home Screen??
thx 4 help
up............ ->
I have some Mortscripts that I have as a quck link but they all show up with the same ugly script icon. Anyone know how to change these?
Thanks. I searched but couldn't find anything...
Im sure you have put the MS directly into startmenu, right? Make shortcuts of them which you put into the startmenu folder (just like you do with programs) and you will be able to change them.

Sorry but how do I "change them" actually. I understand how to make the shortcut in Programs but how do I actually change the appearance of the icon in Sense?
Ahh now i know what you mean (i think at least )
- Use p.ex. JWMD Icon Changer (and of course any desired icon png with resolution 128x128 you can find here in the forum or via google),
- Change the Icon,
- Clear all files in \application data\htc\proglauncher (because thats the cache for the shown icons, if u leave it nothing will change),
- Softreset your Phone
Now the icons should have changed

Start Menu -> look at my HTC_Calendar and HTC_Music app - they both do not have the nice HTC icons (musical note icon and HTC Calendar app icon - the one you get when you hover over the calendar in the slider). It used to be there and when I tried to copy the file from the storage location to another location and copied it back, it no longer shows the icon - just the generic blue stripe at the top, white window icon. Any idea how I can make it so it generates and shows the nice icon? I looked at the .lnk file using notepad and noticed it points to ManillaShortcut music or calendar. That's it. There's no reference to an icon file or anything like that. Is there a reg key or something? Thanks in advance.
Can someone look in their Start Menu and tell me what (this is stock 2.13 ROM) the lnk is called and what it should point to? Currently - it is called HTC_Calendar and HTC_Music.
