I have made lots of taskbars but lately when i switched to dpi192 and searched for new taskbars to take some ideas and make my own i have some problems rather weird.
1)I downloaded some taskbars and opened them with WinCe cab manager.
In some of them their shellres dll appeared to be like the original one with the stock icons, but when i replace this file in my phone then the new icons appear.Where are these icons in the shellres? How is possible that restorator or reshacker doesnt show them?
2)I took the phcanoverbmp file of one of these taskbars and put my icons on it.It worked flawlessly with one build and when i changed build then the icons changed to the ones the phcanoverbmp had before i modified it.That means that in restorator I see my icons and in the phone I see the previous icons.Kind of magic!!
Well i checked in my kitchen that no other phcan or leophcan existed.
I would appreciate a reply on these questions!!
mmmm weird.. i had that issue with PE explorer once.... but then suddendly the XP screws up with a blue screen so i need to reformat and now the PE explorer and restorator shows me the changes
Edit: hope you arent playing with files from 6.5 into builds 6.5.X and viceversa cause it dont works
When you change build you must change again shellres.192.dll,shellres.192.dll.0409(or you native).mui.
Im not taskbar maker but this is what i can see in a taskbar cab that i downloaded.
I see also outres.192.dll,tapres.192.dll.
If you are a cooker i suggest you to put those files in an EXT package so for every new build you will not going to change them from SYS.
If you want only copy them into windows folder or make a cab i suggest you to sign them before or use sdkcerts.cab.
Here is a reg key to check:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:00000065
"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:000003E9
"FuncDll"="CDMA_RSSI_PPC.dll"
"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"
"BaseId"=dword:00000000
Thank you guys for replying.
No i did not use wm 6.5 dll, It seems that somehow when you dont use a virgin dll and you overwrite the old icons with the new ones with restorator or reshacker, then sometimes the old icons remain and though you dont see them in the restorator they appear in the screen.
I made a progress,I used virgin dlls and this time signed them with the last msigner 2010.I made a cab and cooked as an external package using zzz as you said although this wasnt the problem.Now everything is fine, i can sleep.I dont know if it was the msigner version or the virgin dll.Ihave many times overwrighted icons, in already modified dlls, with restorator (without using virgin dlls) without problems.This time didnt work mayby.
Now the only problem i have is that when i check windows default in home screen then when i hit the windows button to go for example in start menu, then the x button doesnt return to titanium any more.
This doesnt really matters to me because i am an spb fun.I unchecked windows default which i do anyway and no problem.But maybe it should be nice to know why,maybe some other guys have the same problem.
Mmm, now the device stucked in boot screen once during sashimi, now i installed the programs manually, maybe I must fix this problem I previously described.
Any idea?
Thanks for your replies.
you must know that if you add in the kitchen a dll or whatever it doesnt matters if its signed or not... unless the tsk's with themes. cause the kitchen sign everything... the sign process of dlls or other thing are for patch working roms

I am not sure when it happened but i have lost the ability to change themes. I have it set to the Windows Default theme and can't change it to anything else. When i go to settings, then Today, I get a list o fthemes. But if i select any of them and hit ok, nothing changed, even after soft reset. Th eonly thing that changed is when i highlight an object, the highlight is a different color.
I am sure a hard reset will fix this, but I don't want to do that yet.
What exactly happens when you select a theme? Does it extract some files from the .tsk file? If so, what are they and where does it go?
Perhaps, those files are write protected andcan't be copied over in my case.

WOW, this is happening to me right now and it's driving me nuts! it seems to have happened after i tried a blackish greyish theme called vista something. Have you found a fix for it?! or does anyone know how to fix this? all i can use is the windows default aqua theme
This is happening to me right now also. Has anyone come up with a fix for this yet?
im still looking for a solution. if i find it, ill post it here. if you find it, please share!
This is happening to me too. I decided to change themes the other day and nothing happend after selecting and hitting 'ok'. Even the themes that came with my Mogul dont work.
I have tried removing themes and soft-restarting and no luck.
Does anyone know what files are modified when you select a theme? my guess is that something is getting corrupted.
Using a registry editor, go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\
Do you see a key named after the theme you installed?
If so, change the value of Role from 64d to 24d and then remove your theme as you usually do.
Here is an expert's explanation:
BenThon said:
Nevertheless, there is a light problem with TSKs created with XML :
I have found a drawback writing TSK with _setup.xml :
New keys in registry :
HKLM\Software\Apps\name of TSK
HKLM\Seurity\AppInstall\name of TSK
And it creates a folder in Windows\AppMgr\name of TSK with a tmp file inside. You can't delete these folders as they are System.
Tsk installed with XML have registry key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\TSK_Name\Role = 64d
So, When this key is set to 64d, application are masked to the uninstaller.
If you put the value 24d, as other applications, you can uninstall TSK with classical uninstaller.
It deletes the registry keys of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\TSK_Nameand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\TSK_Name
and it deletes folders concerned.
So :
actually, when a TSK is loaded with xml, it creates keys in HKLM\Security\AppInstall\TSK_Name\Role = 64
and folder in Windows\AppMgr\TSK_Name
But you cannot uninstall the TSK by normal procedure because the uninstall is hidden by the value 64 of Role.
If you set this value to 24, it is possible.

borealcool,
So if I understand you, you are saying that when I change to another theme, the system is trying to 'uninstall' the current theme? So if I change the value in the registry it will be able to change or 'uninstall' it?
I was thinking that it could have something to do with a locked file of some sort becuase I have also been stricken with the 'access denied' phantom. I can't delete files from file explorer no matter what they are or where they are stored. (and no other programs are running)
I guess I'm going to have to become familiar with the registry...ugh. Do you have a recommendation for an editor?
TSK and _setup.xml
I think you are right borealcool !
It seems that I have played with fire by permitting to create TSK with information file "_setup.xml" :
if there is not a conventional inf file (with extension ".000") themes does not work with OS < WM5.
there is a drawback with theme and _setup.xml (which I explained here in september 2006 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1016599#post1016599 and in a RTF file (TSK and XML (EN).rtf) which is in the zip file of ThemeGenCE.
I have found the same problem in this forum : http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1291292
Please read the TSK and XML (EN).rtf where I explain how to solve the problem and give a solution with ThemeGenCE and PocketPC connected with ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center.
I can give you an advice if you do not want to have problem with themes :
Create themes with ThemeGenCE with setting for create the themes in the Options Tab for TSK with "+ Inf" only selected.
If you load a theme from Internet and you are not sure how it was built, take it into ThemeGenCE, check the "+Inf" option only and save the theme with your modifications.
Same problem here.
I have the same problem it will only load the one default .tsk file no matter what tsk file i select. if i go to reg and check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\
I don't see any entries for the tsk.
I also checked HKEY _CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\TODAY
It shows the tsk file i have selected but theme still remains the green generic one. Ican select a picture as background but I have some cool themes too. Any other ideas to fix this?
I'm using aT-mobile Wing WM6
Thanks all Randy
can those who are having the theme problem still successfully connect via activesync?
qu1nn
activesync
Activesync works but I just reformatted my computer and loaded activesync a couple of days ago.
I know this question is prolly silly but do I install themegence on my computer or on my WM6 phone? Also which version should I use for creating themes on my mogul? Thanks
It seem happends when I changing theme with task tray hidded.
I used to hide task tray with dciNoBar.exe.
And then, the CAB files can't be installed too.
WM6 seem can't creat TSK entry in today category.
So, I have'nt found solution, just hard reboot and reinstall all.
I was having the same problem until I noticed HTC X-Button 1.5 was the culprit. I changed the Button settings to "End programs by tapping and holding "X". This solved the problem until I was able to get the theme changed then I changed it back to "End programs by tapping "X".

new welcomehead
Here is a welcomehead.96 (bootscreen) for those, who have no prophet. Look at your own welcomehead´s name in windows, and give this file the same name (welcomehead-96.png or welcomehead96.png....), make a backup of your file and replace it with the new.
After some questions:
Pocket CM Theme is not for version 0.16, only 0.15
Thx for so many downloads until today. Don´t forget, that you need to download all files for the installation. I couldn´t put them all in one folder.

There are some steps to do:
First use total commander and search for *.png- and *.brn-files in windows on your ppc. Mark them all and unmark in the properties "Read only". It takes a little while, then the write protection of your files is removed. Look at the name of our own welcomehead in windows and give the welcomehead from spiderman-theme-folder the same name. Sometimes they have different names like welcomehead96 or welcomehead.96 and so on. Copy all your downloaded *.png, *.brn and *.tsk-files files into windows. The ring must be taken to Windows/Ring. If you have a touch-like dialer, you can also use the dialer files. The usual wm6 dialer cannot be styled with these files, i heard from another user. The best is, to make a copy of your old files, if you want to replace them sometimes. Make a soft-reset and look, if your cube looks in the new style. If not, go into registry: HKLM/Software/HTC and look into your folder "Biotouch"/"Biotouch", what´s the path for the files there. It must be \Windows\A01.brn... not \Ext_Rom\A01.brn... I integrated a Biotouch.reg into the download folders. Compare the entries with your biotouch.reg. If you have the same entries, you can replace it with my file. Otherwise you must rename your paths manually from Ext-Rom to Windows. So your pocket pc read the windows files. The today theme can be selected in Start/Settings/ Today.
If you have pocket cm until version 0.15, you can take the cmt-file into your folder Program files/ Pocket CM and choose this theme in the program. Poicket CM 0.16 is not supported.
It´s a little work, but if you have done it once, you can use other themes in the same way.
Hi All
First of all I am new to all of this but have spent the last week trying to figure out what to do but failing badly - therefore apologies to you all if my question could be easily found through a google search ...., but I have failed to find it
So at the heading says - how do I install a theme/manila files onto my Ignito without using TF3D Config - I have tried copying them across to the windows directory but still cannot see them listed under the Today settings.
I am using TF3D, on a 1.93 rom on a O2 UK tariff
Fingers crossed someone will be able to help me in simple - idiot proof - instructions
Thanks all
Jean
Ermmm - in light of the fact 77 people have looked at this but not replied does that mean ....
a. Its a really stupid question not worthy of a reply
or
b. No one knows the answer
a lot of people use tf3d config on 1.93 roms with no known
problems.give it a try.you can always take it off again and
return to your stock rom.
Hi i have a 1.93 rom which had the o2 theme, i installed the original black theme on it using tf3d config and ive had no problems.

use total commander to copy and paste the files into the windows directory!
Is there actually a reason why you're trying to do this? TF3D Config is a quick and easy method for changing your theme so to try and accomplish this manually seems needlessly complex. Which, I'd guess, is probably why no one's answered your question; it's likely that no one has ever tried to do it manually as TF3D Config does it all for you.
For the record I've got the stock 1.93 ROM on O2 and I've managed to change theme with TF3D Config without any problems at all. My girlfriend's done the same with her stock 1.93 Vodafone ROM.
Hi All
Thanks so much - the problem I am having is that I can't find any themes within the TF3D config programme - so for example - it asks for a path to the file containing the theme - I highlight the theme location but it then does'nt load
Am I being really dumb!!
Thanks again all

loool OMG select the folder where your themes are located!
You can't select TF3D themes in the Today settings. A WM6 theme (.tsk files) yes, but no Touchflo.. You'll have to either use TF3DConfig> Create a folder called 'themes' (without quotes) in your storage card and put the xxx.theme files in there. Use tf3dconfig, press 'path', doubble click storage card, highlight themes, and press 'ok'. There has to be only .theme files in there, no folders or zip files, they don't work...
Or if you want to copy files to the windows directory, the method is to extract all the manila-files from a theme. Copy and overwrite all the manila files to the windows folder. Folders, zip-files or .theme-files do not work. Only manila files. I wouldn't recommend this one, but you gotta do what you gotta do..

Thanks again - I've done exactly as you say - and in fact that's what I have been doing - yet no theme is available within TF3D - I'm trying to install a manila theme called Black n Blue - I get a warning saying I must have 20mb free - which I have - so at a complete loss as to the problem.

Hmm this is weird.. what ROM do you have? Is it stock? And what version of tf3dconfig are you using?

Rom: 1.93.206.3 wme - Original o2 VERSION
TF3Dconfig: 0.6.7
It's very frsutrating as the process should be simple - yet installing a manila theme in anyway seems impossible - I can change the picture background via Flo and of course have a WM theme if I turn off Touch Flo - just not install a theme that intergrates with TFlo - thanks for the time and help
Yes I can imagine. But on the thread about tf3d config, it says 'Please do not install a Theme on a 1.93 ROM!' Maybe he's referring to stock roms? I also have a 1.93 rom, but it works without any hassle. You are not willing to update to a custom rom?
Have you tried to copy all the manila files to your windows folder? Use total commander.. original explorer does not work..
I think that's what I'm going to have to do - just less hassle if I can get away without replacing the rom - never mind it was worth a try - the weird thing is even copying across to the windows folder- via ActiveSyn - also does'nt work - so a bit stumped
Thanks for all the help though
You would have to use Total Commander to to copy files from your 4gb storage card to your windows folder. It doesn't work with activesync or explorer..
Ahh okay thats good to know -off to try!!!!
Perfect - fiddly - but worked a treat - it was trying to copy across via Active Syn that was the issue - hugely appreciated thank you
It's worth noting that this can't be an issue with stock ROMs because both my girlfriend and I have successfully updated our TF3D themes using TF3D Config and we both have stock 1.93 ROMs.
Not that that helps you out at all, but at least people reading this will know it is perfectly possible to do this using a stock ROM.

Same here, i have tried many themes on the stock o2 ROM with the TF3D config with no issues.
I can't believe so many people out there don't realize what the problem is. The aforementioned "Black and Blue" theme (and many others) is NOT a .theme file, so the TF3D Config application CANNOT be used to apply it. It is instead just a bunch of manila files that need to be copied into the Windows directory (with Total Commander from the sound of it). I have had the same problem with the same theme.
Are we being dumb in that there is a simple way to create the .theme file? From a collection of manila files?
Hi
How does one cook a custom theme into a ROM and make that the default theme? I've tried editing quite a few registry entrys and it still does not work.
Another question along the same lines, how do i cook in a custom today wallpaper? I've tried changing registry entrys here as well but it didn't work either
Thanks
Mod edit: Solved thread
well...
long history here...
First.. the themes for 6.5 and 6.5.X are not the same theme, so genereally if you want to cook inside a theme that you have made... simply be sure that you have a TSK that contains all the registry entries for images and the two images in JPG format with your size screen set them as "read only" and "archive" attribs then save the cab as winmo cab then rename it from .cab to .tsk then.... put it into a EXT pkg in your EVK kitchen or whatever you have EVK or OSK make a pkg called "my theme name" inside a folder called "FILES" inside that folder all images of the theme and the TSK too... then go to your RUNCC or autoinstall or however you have and set in the txt file this comand...
TSK: \Windows\My theme name.tsk
at the end of the file this way in the botting procces frist customization the theme will be set as default
is the dirt way but you can make it safely instead of changing many regs that simply you will forgot the original
Y'all must to remember that if you want to patch the theme or install a them in a runing working rom in teh device you must to trust sign the TSK but if you are cooking the kitchen will do it for you
The wall paper is easy: just set whatever pic you want as the wallpaper using either Home-settings or the pic and video tool. Then open \windows, and look for the newest files. You'll see two files named stwater_###x###.png or something very similar (could be tdywater). Grab these two files and then when you're editing a .tsk file, include the files in it. Now you're done.
If you want to cook the theme straight into the rom, then you need to dump all of the reg keys and put them into an app.reg file in a package that runs at the end of the build. Name your two wallpaper files (portrait and landscape) "classicblue_stwater_480_640.jpg" and "classicblue_stwater_640_480.jpg," and stick them in the same EXT. (To get the proper names for your device, look in (SYS\Build#\dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640\COMMON\base_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640), obviously with the proper resolution.) Look through your add2config.txt or config.txt files, and make sure that no other stock .tsk is run during customization.
I know i to cook a theme and set as default and blabla....but its interesting know how to trust sign the TSK when i make a theme.cab to put in a working rom...can you explain?

A way that bobsbbq has taught me, and has worked for a 6.5.5 theme
make a new folder in your EXT packes, called whatever the theme is, and in there make another folder called files, in the files folder copy across everything in the theme's cab. then go back into the root of the themes package folder and make a new text document called add2config in there paste the following:
TSK: \Windows\XXXX.tsk
where XXXX is the exact name of yout .tsk file found in the themes cab (so it will also be in the files folder if you want to copy the file name exactly.
Save the text document and then just select it in your kitchen

I started having problems with Farmer Ted's way so I tried this one instead. It works perfectly except for one thing, that it needs a restart before it's effective. Is there any way to get it working on first boot?
I use this one:
OEM\ExtendedPKG\config.txt
Code:
LOCK:Enabled
TSK: \WINDOWS\Htc_black.tsk
LOCK:Disabled
RST: Reset
This will set that theme on first boot, of course you need to have RunnCC running.
You must change Htc_black.tsk with your tsk name.

sometimes you need to take your theme tsk rename it to .cab open it with cab manager and change the pics inside
the manila use as default a pic inside the EXT or OEM pkg it contains the manila app... search for the image and just replace it same size, and attributes.

Thanks. Will try it out
what would the image name be? in EXT Manila.exe is only in Manila_Core and I don't have any image there except Manila files...
In OEM I saw the default HTC Black.tsk along with HTC stwater images...
Do I need to replace these 2 Images (HTC Black Stwater... 480x800 and 800x480)?
Hi old chefs,
I tried the new kitchen 1.26 rc4 v2 in my hd2 GSM dumping the 2.13 tmous, applied the proper operator packages and is working fine but i cannot manage to apply any modified phcanoverbmp file.
Its strange but when i replace the file in a reg tweaks package file the phone cannot see it though it sees it before changing the file (it sees the 100% battery icon and works ok but when i apply my own phcanoverbmp the icon returns to old style battery icon).
I cooked succesfully shelres.192 tapres.192 outres.192 and volumecontrol.dll.
The original rom has tmous_leophcanoverbmp file but of course this file must be replaced.When i replace the file the system also cannot see it.
When i apply my taskbar cab the phone ends without bottom buttons and theme and is hanging.
The rest of the rom produced is working really fine.
The question is the following:
Must be another setting in the new kitchen except oem operator package for phcanoverbmp?Phcanoverbmp is only in the oem operator package?
Are there any other settings that i dont know?
Its very strange because i replace a working in previous kitchen phcanoverbmp file and the system or kitchen cannot see it!!
Thanks in advance
If you need to change the battery icon, take all your files , pu them in an EXT folder named zz_battery_icon.
Be sure to name them with zz behind the name so they will be the last to be copied.

if you want to patch the existing running OS in your phone you need to sign the dll if you want to cook it... dont need to resign

Well you are wright, also you must unsign the file right before modifiing it because after the file doesnt work.
I dont know the reason of the malfunction i had, i did the dll mod from scratch and everything is ok now.
Also newbie taskbar makers must know that when they modify a modified dll, they must extract the icos from dll and then use them in a virgin dll.
If you drag and drop the icos from a dll to another, as can be done in restorator, the process is faster but then sometimes the old icos, before modification appear, although i dont know why.
