When installing ROMs shortcut apps are gone - HD2 General

Well i notice all the apps shortcuts have been gone when you install a new ROM. Is there anyway i could get the music icon or tweeter icon to my shortcut app launch? i really will love to have those shortcut back to my square boxes. thanks

Launch Cookie's Home Tab Editor and "export settings". Make sure you save the file to your storage card.
Then re-import the settings after you've finished the Flash.

cLaunch: Shortcut icon for settings?

Hi Evertone,
I´m using cLaunch to create shortcuts on my today screen. I'd love to have a shortcut (icon) to settings.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks in advance.
I'd like to know that too...
cLaunch and shortcut to settings
Not sure if you had worked this one out yet but I found the answer. Download iFonz onto your phone. One of the files in that app is called 'settings' and is a shortcut to the settings on your handset.
You can then copy the settings shortcut to My Documents (or other location of choosing) and link cLaunch to that file. iFonz can then be removed safely and you are left with your cLaunch shortcut.

Vovichek&Jamrecords 20 shortcut cab issue(?)

When installing this cab, I've noticed it places shortcuts in the Start honeycomb for the HTC apps (Twitter, People, Calendar, Music and Footprints). None of these shortcuts have icons assigned to them, so they look naff.
PS. I didn't notice the additional shortcuts before I installed the latest ROM.

Is there a way to have more than 20 icons, im greedy
Not sure if this is the same issue: Jamrecords works well on my phone; but after adding programs I can't delete them. Is that the same problem?

Change Manila Home Quicklink icon

I'm using stock rom 1.48.832.1 CHT
I've set one of the home quicklink icon to http://touch.facebook.com, but I really don't like it use a thumbnail cache of the page as the icon... So I went to registry and changed the path of the icon to the facebook.lnk pointing to the Facebook app... However Manila refused to refresh the icon...
I've also try to work it out another way round... Set the quicklink to the facebook app and change the address manually to http://touch.facebook.com... However when I press the icon it still launched the facebook app....
My goal: To set a quicklink pointing to http://touch.facebook.com with the facebook app as the icon
Anyone know what I've done wrong? Thanks

Quicklink icons aren't the same as in the startmenu

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.

[Q] Getting icons back?

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.
