Need assistance please... - Hero CDMA General

Ok, so I need to know where the heck the HTC Sync icon is. I need to make it transparent to go with my new taskbar im creating. Anybody? Also, where is the *New Text* icon and the *New* Gmail icon?

u need to go into the apk of the apps for that, thats what i did

Thanks. I found it after I posted. Lol. I'm still trying to find the stupid sync icon. The one I think it is, is already transparent. Driving me nuts!!

PM ratcom or emerica6541 or change the thread title so they know to look in. They have already done it, so they will know which pngs need edited.

ok i found where it is.
do an adb pull of /system/framework/framework-res.apk
then open it up with a file manager like winRAR, etc.
navigate to framework-res.apk/res/drawable, scroll down, and look for the following:
stat_notify_sync.png
stat_notify_sync_anim0.png
stat_notify_sync_error.png
those are it. i believe you can find all the others in there too.

Search for 'Theme Generator for Windows CE' on google
I use it a lot and does good job
I downloaded it and am trying to learn it as we speak. I have a theme right now that I really like I just want to get rid of some of the greys to add a bit of color to it. I gotta figure out which fields adjust which colors. Since it is for WM5 I'm having a hard time figuring out what goes where, but I think I might get it eventually.
Also, is there a WM6 theme database anywhere?
Thanks!

It's a nice program but, the UI is all messed up. They have icons everywhere. Basically trial and error method to learn.
Since I was building a Theme Application I had to learn it quick. Other than that I do not have much experience with themes!
I have no idea about the theme database. that would be great!.
If you go to the link at my signature... rk-TSR you will find the theme I built.
Cool let me go check it out.
Yeah, the theme generator is really haphazard and disorganized. I'm not real thrilled with the GUI, but hey, it's better than nothing, and it is free, so far be it for me to complain!
I noticed, for no reason, all of a sudden, when I apply a new theme, I can't click anywhere on the top of my screen. I cannot X out, get into the Start menu or anything. I have to softboot my phone. I haven't changed anything, it just started happening. So, every time I try a new theme, I gotta softboot.

I don't remember the steps involved, But since you say 'Apply the theme' are you applying the theme directly from the 'Theme Gen App' ? if so try saving it as tsk file first and transferring it over to device and apply the theme.
Sorry, I should have been more clear.
I change the theme within WM6. I go to settings > today > select a theme then click OK at the top.
Once i do this I cannot access the top bar, regardless of the orientation. I can't close by hitting the X, or open the start, or anything that is at the top, even in landscape.

Ok, I just changed my myFaves settings, and it caused the same problem.
wtf
dammit
I don't wanna dump all my settings and start over again.
Hmm thats strange,
Are these themes you just created on the Theme generator?
Probably something is wrong with your method.
Can you try one of my themes on your device and see still you get the same problem(since they are also created with the same program)
My device is 'Hermes' with WM6
I tried a theme that I modified in the theme generator when it happened. I bet I messed something up. blargh!
I'll give yours a try in the morning.
I'm most likely going to be clearing the device and letting it reinstall the OS, so it won't be a problem anymore. I just gotta get my outlook contacts saved.

Here, assuming that your phone is qvga since I didn't notice you posting which phone you have, download this theme that I made in ThemeGenCE. If you still have the same problem after installing it then it's most likely something other than your theme causing the problem. If it doesn't cause the problem then let me know and maybe I can help you figure out what you're doing wrong. I've made hundreds of themes in ThemeGenCE so I know how to use it pretty well.
To create your own theme. heres a start!

I tried your themes and it is still doing it. I like your designs though.

Switch off your device ... sorry, couldn't resist that one! I've had a good search, but not found anything on that one... it doesn't seem to be a function that anyone else has wanted to implement before
on home tab...push thumb upwards and clock will magically disappear.

HD2: Can the lock slider change to bottom?

Does anyone know how to change the lock slider to the bottom like the iPhone? please help. Thanks.
search "S2U2" via google.
problem is I'll slide twice as both two lock screen programs are running
For a start, there is a way to turn off the default lock screen if you're using S2U2
Tip 27 from the Hints and Tips thread (I strongly suggest you read it all)
Tip 27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0, or use the following cab:

Second, you don't need to use a 3rd party app, you can just run the HeartOfWolf Lockscreen mod in my signature and it'll move the slider to the bottom of the screen for you. I have no idea why they put it at the top?

Can you explain a bit about this one rather than just post the cab please
You can try the HD2 Mini lockscreen cab..it's quite good, just don't use the PIN unlock.
It's slide down to unlock and it tells you any missed calls, SMS, emails etc...i quite like it actually..

You can also take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632637
At the bottom, the OP posted a modified 480x800 cpr file to do want you want. All you need to do is change the extension from .txt to .cpr, open file explorer and put it in the Windows\Lockscreen file and soft reset.
EDIT:
Also, if you are using the HeartofWolf Mod and would prefer to have the original larger slider size instead of the small skinny one, I've made a few modifications to his LS_LockScene_480x800 and attached it below. All you need to do is change the file extension from .txt to .cpr and install it into your windows\lockscreen file, soft reset and you're good to go. Of course, please back up the original LS_LockScene_480x800 before installing this one, just in case you would like to revert back to the small slider. And of course all credits to HeartofWolf, I just made a couple of changes to his work.

It literally swaps the slider and phone location on the lock screen, nothing more.
Another nice solution is DJ Pete's locksreen. It's a simple modification of the windows lockscreen with manila clock, calendar appointments and slider variations. You can find it at pocketpc.ch in the thread
[Lockscreen] iLook v3.0c [NEUE VERSIONEN!|WM6.5/6.5.x WVGA][27.02.10].
! It's in German.

Kandekied, to get you started, go into your windows directory inside file explorer and open the lockscreen folder. Next, copy the file LS_LockScene_480x800 somewhere onto your PC and open it using notepad. That particular file is for Portrait. If you want to modify landscape also, then copy LS_Lockscene_800x480. With the file open on your PC in notepad, you are now ready to begin modifying. The particulars of what you want to do would take alot of space on this post to describe, but to get you pointed in the right direction, I've copied a few threads for you to look at that will help you get started.

You see, this is why I asked for more information about this in the first place. I never install a cab that I've not read about first and that people have tested a bit. You should always link to the thread a cab came from, not just the cab.
Also, chill out. You installed a cab from a random thread and it wasn't what you wanted. If you have to hard reset it's your problem not ours.
If people don't reply to a post it's because they either don't want to or don't know. There is no point in wetting your panties and posting multiple times. It's more likely just to p!ss everyone off and make them not reply.

then why not share that with us
because i briqued my tablet 3 time
you must edit systemui.apk wich is in system/app folder. Inside there is "\systemui apk\res\drawable-mdpi" and look for
6 files :
ic_sysbar_back_default.png
ic_sysbar_back_pressed.png
ic_sysbar_home_default.png
ic_sysbar_home_pressed.png
ic_sysbar_recent_default.png
ic_sysbar_recent_pressed.png
you must edit them and replace it
but when you remplace it, the system crash, you must reboot and that's all
Can you post a link to where you found your icones you used looks kewl.
i found them on google image
My god those icons are horrendous.
yes, i made a better home button

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to each his own. Enough cliches!
The easiest way to do this is to copy the SystemUI.apk to your PC. Open the file with WinRar, navigate to the correct folder within the file /Res/drawabke-mdpi, then delete the desired files, then add the news ones to the same directory. Make sure you make a backup copy of the file first. Then, using root explorer copy the file back to system/app. You'll get fc after fc. Just reboot the tab and you'll have your new buttons. Just did it, so I know it works. Not sure I like the way they look. I'll leave them for a few days to see if they grow on me lol
Just finished mine
ninja morph does this from within your device.gonna make my own nice pink icons. I will share them with you guys.
