i can give you a small hint maybe will make your work easier, flash your rom without shellres.dll, then add it manually, if you want to replace just hard reset and try the second one, and so on, so no need for cooking or flashing (i'm not sure if that can be worth for shellres.dll, but i used this method for some other system dll files)
i don't know if you are good in making cab files, if you are not that good, did you try Wince Cab Manager and make a cab file containing shellres.dll with removing all properties for this file (in Wince Cab Manager).
i hope i gave you some of useful information
good luck for you work, don't stop till you got what you are looking for

All this is THANKS to Gixxum!!!​
The ORIGINAL PDF manual if you need it..
Before getting started, please take a quick look at the sticky's that are located on the very top of the Excalibur forum, or visit here for an encyclopedia . At the very least, this will help you learn some of the terminology used here as well as give you an idea of common issues and how to solve them.
First thing you want to do is decide which ROM you would like to upgrade to. Take some time and read these threads:
Kavana’s 6.1 ROM.
Kavana’s 6.1 ROM - Remade by Ricky.
NRGZ28's 'Rose' Rom.
NRGZ28's 'Rose' Rom - Remade by Ricky and Stylez
Read the features and changes (for each version) in the first post of each thread linked above.
Once you have decided on a ROM, download the appropriate file to your computer and place the unzipped folder on the desktop.
In addition, download the files below and save them to you computer. (You might need them later.)
SDA Unlock Application (unzip this file and save SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe to your computer)
Tegic eT9 US English Keyboard Layout
Error 270 Fix
So lets get started:

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
YOUR SCREEN TURNING WHITE....IS NORMAL AT THIS POINT!!!

Lets continue....

Do this with the USB cord DISCONNECTED from the computer.
Scroll down or up to the settings panel.
Select
Scroll right or left to USB to PC.
Select
UNCHECK the first option.
Connect the USB cord after you click on ok.
You are all done!!!

[Q] Manila

Hey guys,
I have got a brand new HTC Touch HD with WindowsMobil 6.1 and I saw this picture here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How can I make my interface like this? I heard I have to use "Manila" but all cab Files I installes ("Manila 2.5 v3.0(beta)", "Manila 2.5 v2.9", etc.) didn't work.
Somebody told me I have to "cook" something (??).
Is here somewhere a step by step tutorial?

Yes it's possible to have that interface, but...
First of all You have to read a lot about flashing new ROM to your phone, because your picture shows newer system with new Manila (a.k.a. Sense 2.5)
Check this post for ROM section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
and when You'll decide to change everything, choose ROM with Cookie's Home Tab (this is very powerful tool for changing home tab)
After that You won't recognize your new device

change your windows mobile (rom) to 6.5. i think KWBR rom6.5 for HD is better.after install cookie home tab and editor.and edite your home screen.

Help needed
I have doubts of what to do with this files I upload above. Now i'm trying with Stock rom and golf rom...the files are: build.pro, build.img, update.bin and update script,i'll update a folder with theses files from both roms! I guess this files are giving the problems because the rest of the tuturial is easy
So, Golf ---> Explorer, can someone with experience edit theses files so the rom dont have errors in booting up??? I made arrangents as I say below, but no sucess :S
-> build prop must have where is device and all...pico instead of golf!
->boot image must be of golf with bootclasspath line edited with stcoks'
-> Update binary (can i copy paste the stocks one?)
->Update script: this is the trick one, i dont know much :S
