I was sorting the start menu icons on my HD2 today and I now seem to have broken the HTC_Music, HTC_Calendar, HTC_Footprints, HTC_People, HTC_Twitter icons by moving them into a folder called HTC. After a soft reset ugly plain generic icons were automatically created in the root of the start menu and the ones I moved into the HTC directory were also reset to ugly ones. I tried copying back the ones I moved back but they still remain the same. Any idea how I can fix these broken icons?
Cheers,
Richard.
try this tweak:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\IsShortcutEnable
Change to 0 and soft reset.
That happened to me, but I didnt change anything for that to happen. I dont use the shortcuts and that is was HTC Sense is for, so I just deleted them...was that a rash decision?
I tried the above registry edit, but it is just not working for me. The icons in the start menu are still bland icons.

after making the registry changes, did you delete the icons and soft reset?

I can't change the start menu items, I can't add shortcuts or remove shortcuts to and from start menu...I mean, the changes from editing menus did not appears immediately in start menu...
It needs soft reset to refresh the start menu...strange...
This is really weird!!! :?
for me, when I change the menu items, the changes are reflected immediately!!!
What ROM version you have?
When I hard reset my xda2, the problem was gone...but after installing many2 apps,it happens again...dunno which apps cause the problem though...my rom is 1.60.00
This also happened to me too!!!! :roll:
I think the problem is that there is a limit to the number of icons that you can have in the start menu. Adding any further shortcuts after this limit has been reached will have no effect!
I don't think so...Because I have only 5 items on my start menu...
and, I found any other problem too...the new installed apps doesn't display the shortcut in Programs Folder (start>programs), It needs soft reset to refresh the programs folder, or you can simply enter games folder and go to programs folder again to refresh it... :roll: :roll:
Gotcha!! I have found the answer for this problem...the start menu freezed and need a soft reset to refresh it when you use a theme that not fully compatible with WM2003...just use the theme that fully support WM2003 and the problems gone!
I've done a search but can't find anything.
All I want to do is change that little flag icon (top of start menu) to something else.
I have 1.93 rom so can't change themes, and don't want to change anything else.
Is there a .gif or .jpg that I can overwrite?
Thanks!

Thanks guys... I'll read through it! I have my new icon. Just hoped it was going to be really easy to implement!
Piece of advice for you before you copy anything into the windows directory make sure you copy and keep the shellres.192.dll, shellres.192.dll.0409.mui, phcanOverbmp.dll and the HTCVolumeControl.dll
I have the carnero taskbar icons,didnt like the htc logo so changed it to a black vista orb and had no sound in the earpiece? a hard reset and another go later and its all working fine. BE WARNED!!!!!!!!
I have a problem with the htc hd 2, when you press the windows logo button on the bottom of the phone you jump to menu where all the icons are (such as installed programs icons and settings).
what happened is that all icons are missing except the today icon, how can
you bring all those icons back?
Also when you install a new program the phone doesn't make any icon in the menu. I have soft reset my phone with the reset button on the back but wouldn't work.

I hope for your sake I'm wrong, but that sounds like a hard reset is needed, to me. Wait and see if anyone else has any suggestions, but that sounds quite a nasty problem.
I have got the same problem... any ideas how to fix it without hard reset?
I have two such icons .. HTC people and HTC calendar. It seems it has something to do with turning corresponding tabs off and on again.
Yes it would me nice to fix it without hard reset Any suggestions?

How do you turn the corresponding tabs off and on?
Another thing hhen you go to the setting en press menu on the right corner then press more then nothing appears/happen?
Settins / personalize / home screen tabs
And I can confirm it .. first I had no such icons. Then I disabled calendar tab. Still nothing. Then I enabled calendar tab. And THC Calendar icon with no picture (only default one) showed up in the start menu. Now if I remove the tab, the icons gets removed too. But as I enable the tab again, icon is back.
Same for HTC People icon.
Only tweak I use which could have something to do with this enabling all settings icon in start menu (via BsB tweaks).

I see what you mean thanks for the effort, but with these icons the htc has no problems, its with icons you see when you press the windows logo button, its a long list with all the installed applications. In this screen they all disapeared except the today icon.
Some help from anybody would be very appreciated?
Hmmm
I had the same issue.
Flashed 1.48 over it.
Havn't had the problem since.
Check this dudes thread for additional/replacement icons...stunning stuff!

Updating rom solved the problem thanks for help me out!!
Any other solution available other then updating my ROM...cause it's already up-to-date.
I got this issue after a soft reset by BsB Tweaks.

Additional info:
- I'm using a Dutch ROM (so "\Windows\Startmenu\Program files" is called "\Windows\Startmenu\Programma's" )
- It happened after a soft reset after altering the Led Notifications/Message Notification setting
(I think the soft reset itself might have caused it)
- I have been moving startmenu items around using my ActiveSync connection
All I've found on the forum thus far is: Hard reset your device...but I really don't wanna.
Damn, it happened again. I'm stuck with just the Today icon again.
For a while I thought: leave it be. With Co0kie's Home Tab I can access all applications I need.
But I recently noticed that I cannot access my advanced settings screen either... and there's no shortcut for that.
Too bad, nobody came up with a solution that doesn't require a hard reset or ROM Update (which basically means the same: Clean slate).
Anyone?
Hi Guys,
I've had the HD2 for about 2 months now and am absolutely loving it! One slight problem that I noticed this afternoon though was 3 double icons appearing in my Start Menu.
The duplicate icons appear with the default blank square icon whereas the correct icons still have original icons that I applied with IconChanger. The double icons all work and start the correct programs. I've had a look around the forum and seen similar posts but, in general, the guys that have had this problem have 16 or 20 quicklinks installed, I don't. I tried renaming/overwriting the icons in Resco Explorer which worked but, after a soft reset, they've all come back again!!
Is there any way I can permanently remove these duplicates without causing any damage to the system?? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

First page, item 42. Did you miss this thread when you were searching?

Not to worry, I used Resco Explorer to make the duplicate files hidden and, after a soft reset, I got rid of them. Mods can delete this.
Thanks
I find in registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\ two links: HTC_Music.lnk and HTC Music.lnk.
The first cant be delete, it's reappear after a reboot, so i put the data of the second into the first and delete it and the shortcut in \Windows\start menu\Programs.
I only change the key Rank and add Icon and Name.

Current Devices - HTC HD2 (Leo) Ver 1.43
How this issue started:
I created a couple new folders to better organize my Start Menu and to appease my OCD. I cleared the dead icon links from my Home tab, cleared Icon Catch and did a soft reset.
I now have icons in my start menu - that are active - that should have been moved to a new folder - which are also active. Strange.
Stranger still is the fact I can't see these by browsing in phone, computer, or with Icon Changer. They just don't show so I have no way to remove them by conventional means. They're like... Ghosts.
Anyone know how to get rid of these ghost icons?

If they are the HTC program ones, its a registry key you'll need to change.

Actually none of them are HTC apps. They are kinda random:
CleanRam (and config)
WebTV
SPB TV
Bananas
BsB Tweaks
CHT Editor
Omarket
JWMD Icon Changer
I moved all of these to diff folders, amongst others - yet these icons stay. Would this still be a registry issue?
And yes i cleared Icon Cache
