just copy the image files for the selected programs and paste them into the root of your start menu folder within windows. There are quite a few variations of nicely designed ones in the forum. alternatively you can just use some compiled cabs from dinik or drik...

I need the original black slider (1e29e8e7_manila).
Thanks.
Please, I need the original black slider archive (1e29e8e7_manila), for my Diamond. Thanks.
Delete this files and make a Soft reset, the Orginal will be back.
All Ok. Thankyou very much BassX.
I am looking for the original htc slider in .cab form for my theme.
I have the O2 xda Ignito which I don't believe has it anywhere.
Can anybody help with this?
I have searched and tried to find a glass slider to work with my today screen but both the "Transparent glass slider" by Pamas
and the glassflosetup.cab (by I'm not sure) for some reason wouldn't work.
I'm trying to rectify the problem below. (doesn't look quite right does it???)
Thanks
I've also tried various other sliders but was informed that either a glass/transparent or the original htc one looks best with the icon set.
EDIT>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I have since found a clear slider and LOOK same problem (see attached thumbnail 2) ?!?!? Is my icon set the problem?
here is the original slider (manila file). Just copy it to the Windows folder

Thanks I'm hoping that my do it, anybody got a .cab file
I can manage those
I am pretty useless
Apologies for the double post but does anybody have the .cab file for the original black htc slider. I have tried to copy the manila file (above) into windows but had no joy.
Thanks (This would really finish off my wallpaper)
It is because you are using the transparent slider. You need Nisse's 3icon menu if you're going to run a transparent slider...
Also handy hint - Use Total Commander to copy any unzipped files across to your \Windows folder as that will bypass write protection.
Hey all! First off, I DID NOT create these icons. I merely swapped over .png's from an existing icon set provided by..........????? Well, I'm not sure who created this, I came across them not too long ago and have been searching for a landscape version since. Very much thanks to the original creator and I hope you don't mind what i've done here. I don' know how to make .cab files so you'll need to place these files into your \Windows folder manually. Remember to back-up your existing manila files in order to remove mine later (To remove mine just overwrite my manila files with your original ones.) Also, If you can't see the files in the folder, make sure you are able to view hidden files or folders on your CPU.
i like em. do you have any for portrait?
Here's portrait icons. It comes with a green cursor so I included the transparent slider I use as well. Install the cursor 2nd. Again, much thanks to the creator of this icon set as well as Pamas for the slider.

Sketchy style looks great. I like the icons.
If I copy all files inside windows, do I have than a Landscape mode. I just ask a stupid question because, my homescreen will not turn for it self.
Once in a while it turns but than it shows me on the left half side the screen tf3d but without slider (Tab). On the other side it shows just scratching something (can´t describe it).
thx for you help
If you are using a Diamond than no, my landscape files will not give you landscape mode. They are for TP users. The portrait mode icons will work for both diamond and TP. I suggest that you remove the landscape manila files and you should be fine.
I tried it and it doesn´t work. I use touch HD. Do you have any idear how to get a Landscape mode for HD because I open a thread with "Show me your Landscape screen" and they said that I have to Flash another rom, what I don´t want yet (because of Garanty).
Does it not give another way? I like to have you own because for my theme I use sketchy icons (Tabbar) and this Landscape will complete my theme.
thx
Hi all,
I have dutty's latest rom installed, and I decided I wanted extra calendar appointments on my home screen. So I *fistly* Installed "Compact Homescreen - Autohide Call history, dynamic appointment list" from hallatore from this page, then "Homescreen HD - Tore edition" from the same page because I wanted my wallpaper back.
Now, every time I tap the clock to go to my alarm, TouchFlo resets, and tapping calendar entry's goes to the old style calendar.
PLEASE HELP. All I wanted was some extra appointments on my home screen, and a dynamic 'Missed Calls' bar. I've cocked it right up.
.
The cab files seem to include the following:
00000cab.000
1C684C~1.001 = 1c684cd8_manila
25D044~1.002 = 25d04412_manila
2A0AC4~1.003 = 2a0ac464_manila
_setup.xml
Is there any way I can reset these to how they were?
Maybe if someone can copy these files from thier "Dutty HD V3.7 XT Final" rom for me, I can overwrite them in the windows folder... Would that work?
.
.
.
PLEASE!
PLEASE!
Can anyone who has Dutty's latest rom installed, please copy the following 3 files from the windows directory for me!
1c684cd8_manila
25d04412_manila
2a0ac464_manila
PLEASE! I need them back to normal.
.
Here are the 3 files.
They are copied from Duttys 3.7 XT Final with Manila 2.1.
Please press start, and count the number of icons available on the start menu.
If there are 30 slots, you're on Manila 2.1. If there are 24 slots, you're on Manila 2.0.
Please only use these files if you are on Manila 2.1. I don't know how they will work on Manila 2.0.
Edit:
If you go to settings tab -> all settings -> System tab -> Remove programs, don't you have the option to uninstall the two cabs you installed?
This should set your system back to normal.

Thanks for that Royan. It doesn't seem to have made a difference though. Now I'm thinking it's made some registry changes I don't know about.
Can someone check to see what registry entries the attached cabs have changed, and what they should be.
I feel such a fool. I'd just got the phone to a state that I could live with. I'm so annoyed at myself for trying to change it.
.
Both files do exactly the same, and that is installing the above mentioned files to the windows folder.
There are no registry changes made.
The way it looks, is that the second file you install will overwrite the changes made by the first file you install.
If you try to uninstall from remove programs, the system should be back to normal.
If that doesn't work, try removing the files and soft reset.
Soft resetting after removing the files, should restore them from ROM.
Last attempt, if that doesn't work, is hard reset. However, that will wipe the phone, so get a backup of all data you want to keep!
PIMBackup is a good program to save PIM data such as call history, SMS messages, contacts, appointments etc. You can find it by searching this forum.
Good luck

I've tried uninstalling, but the uninstaller claims it can't do it, then asks me if I want to remove it from the list, which it can't do even if I press yes.
I really don't fancy doing a hard reset, I've spent the last week setting it right up.
There must be a registry entry somewhere that tells it what to do when you tap the clock, it used to go to that lovely new alarm screen.
Also, what did the new rom do when you clicked a calendar entry on the home screen? Did it go to the new style calendar? I can't remember. It's currently going to the old style microsoft pap.

New style...
Did you try deleting the files with Total Commander ( not regular file explorer), and soft-resetting?
Actually, try renaming then to *.bak instead of deleting (just in case... )

Royan
I renamed them using Resco and did a soft reset as you said, but I'm now thinking it's not those files. The installation must have changed something else.
Damn it.
.
The installation of the two cabs did not do anything anything other than installing the three manila files.
I've opened the packages in CAB Manager, and I did not see anything else.
If the problem is not the specific files, then it must have been something else you installed.
Maybe try to uninstall one and one program, soft-resetting after each, and see what (if any) fixes the problem.
If nothing helps, I'm afraid a hard reset is your only option.
Look on the positive side, If you spent a week customizing your phone, you know what you did. It shouldn't take you more than an hour or three to get all it back.

2 hours later and...
Hard Reset - Done.
Reinstalled everything, resynced, re-setup my emails, put all my favourtites back, all that's left is to remap my contacts with thier facebook selves and I'm done.
NEVER DOING THAT AGAIN...
Unless someone knows how to get more appointments on the home screen on Dutty 3.7 XT...
Congratulations!?!?
Good that you're back to a working device.
Just sorry that it took a heard reset to do it.

After loading a number of apps I have tried to tidy up and reduce the number of icons on the Start Menu by making a few more category folders. This I can do but when I switch the apps into folders the icon also remain on the same page as well as in the new folder - which rather negates the point of the exercise. Oddly moving apps out of folders works fine.
Any suggestions out there? And I not sure whether this is a particular quirk with Dutty's ROM (Holy Grail) or just WM 6.5.

Create your new folder in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs for example a new folder called 'Tools' would be /Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Tools. Copy or create your shortcuts into this folder. Once in this folder check you have no duplicates in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs.....if you do, delete these
Fallen Spartan. Thanks for the quick response.
I think that is what I am doing but I end up with icons in both the main Start Menu plus in the new folder. Looking in file explorers the moved apps are only in the new folder not still on the main menu. I was hoping a soft reset might clear any "ghost" icons but they are still both there. Any further suggestions? Thanks

Dont copy them, make your new folder then cut and paste the shorcut you want from the root of the start menu folder to the new one
Raymond try this app sk shortcut manager, you get a free 14 day trial, if you still want to use it after that time you will have to buy a licence from here

That's fine now. The originial icons are disappearing from time to time - and not coming back. Bit odd really. (have realised that the phantom icons disappar from the mainstart screen when you you try to move them up or down ewith the context menu)
Second question if I am allowed that in one thread? No I have new folders anyway of customising the look of the icon?
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere the forum is so big it is hard to follow current posts let alone hunt for old ones.
Thanks again
RE-start is a good app to customise ur start menu icons/folders... check this thread for more info

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.
