[Guide] Start Icons Skins QVGA-WQVGA-VGA and How-to - Windows Mobile Software Development

Hello i made this thread to post my skins for start icon, a thread already exist but it will be clearly at that, i think
This manipulation doesn't use more memory, no app required.
Here is a preview of what's looks like:
{
"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_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is a preview of differents skins you can use
For QVGA WQVGA:
Install "Icone demarrer.cab" it's just 2registry key. (thank to my friend Shakass)
Then put in "/Windows"the file named "shellres.96.dll.****.mui"
**** is the localization code of your ppc's rom (040C for France and 0409 for US/UK)
The files you'll find in the folder are in 040C so change them if you're not french.
And Soft reset
This operation will replace too your wait cursor by the wait cursor vista by Marshall if you want to keep your cursor follow the How-to instructions to extract and modify your shellres.96.dll file.
If you want to put your original system just erase your shellres.96.dll.****.mui file and soft reset.
The folder QVGA-WQVGA contains all the Start icons
French Code 040C

Us Code 0409
Pack QVGA-WQVGA

Open the file named shellres.dll.****.mui and go the String value 321 change the name, compile script and save then sign with MSsigner and put in /Windows; Enjoy !!
Here is some shellres.dll.040C.mui modified: Démarrer, Start, HTC, SFR, Vide(empty)
Change the country code if necessary.
If you like it, you can Donate to XDA .

For VGA:
Same manipulation just the name of the file is "shellres.192.dll.****.mui"
The folder VGA contains only the "Blue windows" and "Office" Start icons for the moment if VGA's user wants some other, request it
"Points" icon added.
Apple Colors - Blue vista - Blue windows - Superstart added on post #168
Dark Glass windows on post #203
Mushrom on post #204
F star on post #194
Eye on post #211
Big Thanks to
Lolento who made a "How-to" to create and change your own icon;
Marshall who give us the way and all other xda members
Here is the Start discussion thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378084
And the first How-to of Lolento on post #40.
If you like it, you can Donate to XDA .

Thanks. I will try it in a bit.

How-To
​If you want to create your own icon,
For QVGA WQVGA
Create an icon in 21x18 then save as .ico file (32bits)
Take one of the "shellres.96.dll.****.mui" file
Or if you want to keep your own Wait cursor:
Copy to your SD card then to your PC the file named "shellres.96.dll"
Open it in Reshacker and go to "Icon group/4609
Clic on Action/Replace Icon/Open new file
Insert your new icon, clic replace.
Save your modified file takes the name of the old "shellres.96.dll.****.mui" and the old takes the name of "shellres.96.dll.****.mui".
If you have used your own "shellres.96.dll" file rename it as "shellres.96.dll.****.mui"
Open Mssigner,search your shellres file, clic Start sign Process
a window appear "Process finished!" then go where is your shellres file, a text file has been create
Open it, if there is wrote "Warning: This file is signed, but not timestamped,Succeeded" that prouved all is okay
After you know the suit.
For VGA
Same things just the size of the icon must be 41x36 and the name must be "shellres.192.dll.****.mui"
What is my Country Number?
Execute the Mortscript which is in the folder "ShellresNameHelper" (with Mortscript) Big Thank to mr_deimos for this script.
All the Softs are in the Tools folder
If you need some ideas here is a french site with lot of PNG image
http://www.customxp.net/PngFactory/
Write in the search bar what you want.
When you do a start icon file
Post the info (VGA QVGA; US FR)
And the PNG file or a screenshot
Enjoy!!!

Cab Version of the Certificates
Here is a Cab Version of the certificates for those who are not comfortable with Registry Editor. This worked perfect for me.
Thanks for the great skins.

works great on my tilt thanks a lot

Once I install the cab, what do I do? And how do you go about changing among the various icons? Sorry for the rookie questions.

Choose an icôn and go in the folder which has the same name, then put the shellres file you'll find in windows. If you aren't french change the "040C" by your localization code (0409 for US)

hey amigo great post ( pub AM first Post please lol)

Do I have to put the icon itself under "Windows" as well or do I leave that in the folder? And ho do you get the default flag back if you don't like a particular icon?

^No you have to add the icon with Reshacker in your shellres file found in the /Windows folder.
Thanks alot for these clear instructions. Will give it a try when I have the time.

very easy installation , I love alienware icone

Thanks I've succeded to change the start menu icon,
but when i want to change the second time it says " File Storage Space Is Full or Read Only " so what should i do for the next??
thanks

@johanrominj: I don't understand what you say
@rock4mayo: I never had this message when copying new file
maybe try to rename the old as "shellres.96.dll.****.old.mui" then copy new file; soft reset and erase old file...Tell me if it's okay.

I would like to have this:
as my Start-Menu icon.
Can you give me the original points.png file in VGA, or can you make shellres.192.dll.****.old.mui with this file included?
That's better for you?

Changer for 6.1 Homescreen CPR and DLL files

This is a simple script for helps in locating cpr and dll(it actually looks for dla files like the weather ones are named) files that you have stored on your phone. With it, you can navigate to your file and choose it, and then it will take care of overwriting the current file being used.
I wrote this because I change up my cpr files alot and have different dll files that each one works better with different themes. So I wanted to be able to make a folder on storage card for dlls and cprs that I could easily copy and set on my homescreen.
To use this, once you have placed it on your phone. Run the FileChanger.mscr. It will ask which type of file you want to find and change, pick one and hit OK. Next, the File System Viewer will open and you will need to navigate to where you keep the file and choose it. Click OK, and it will ask you if you want to set the file change. Push Yes or No, and it will do the rest.
You can install these 2 files(in the zip below) anywhere on your phone as long as they stay within the same folder. They can be in main or storage, program files, my documents, wherever you want. Once placed, you could create a link to start menu or use CHome Config to set it to a panel for easy calling. Your cpr and dll files can be place wherever you want also, and do not have to be in the same folders. They could be scattered as long as you know where to look.

***This is a mortscript file and you will need Mortscript to run it. I attached the cab below for anyone not already using it.
***This only works for Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard
I could have placed this in a cab, but then it would install where I wanted to keep it, and not your choice other than main or storage. That's why I left in zip form. I will add some dll files tomorrow.
EVERYONE : If you have dll files or cpr files you would like to share( and I know some of you have them and can make them) PLEASE post them in here for everyone to enjoy.
Added portrait version so cprs would load correctly.
Here's some neon glow dll files for your homescreen. These dll files also includes new default icons. Just install using the changer.
Here's a few more. After unzipping, just put them on your phone and use the changer to install.
Here's some cpr files that will work to put a simple ODSHOWeather display on clock panel. There is a slim panel and a standard size panel version. Just unzip and use the changer to install.
The Feather zip is for use with Feather Weather and includes slim, standard and mini panels.
All are for landscape devices.
This is exactly what I'm looking for....I'll have to try to figure this editing out.
Thank you so much showaco. That was so simple and exactly what I wanted. Is there a way to slow down the scrolling text. It's fippin fast.

yeah, LOL, in the weather folder. Look in program files\outerdepth\kpweather\ and find loop.mscr. Open this with notepad on your pc. When you look at it you will see the text lines being written, with the RegWriteString lines.
After each one of these, there is a Sleep command. The numbers are milleseconds, so 1000 would be 1 second, 4000 would be 4 seconds, 3500- 3.5 seconds. That's how to set the time delay, just change to desired delay, resave, and then copy to phone. You can set each sleep command to a different delay if you want, some of the texts take less time to read and some more, so just play and get it where you like it.
hey show,,,,, don't forget to post the orange .dll i made for you:

Yeah, I'll post it tonight, I'll put up the whole theme you put together. I was hoping ya'll would all post your stuff on here. I know you and Outerdepth and NRG all have some, I started to post them all and decided I would let ya'll do it if you wanted to share. Thanks for posting yours!

ok.... i only asked you to post that one since i didn't keep that theme or .dll (imagine that?)
This is great, this way i can try yours and even put the WM7 dll from the weather 3.1 app and try them all easily.
Finally got my homescreen how i want it, but different panels to try would be great.
Since my troubles always came from my panels disappearing with a full replacement of cpr files, would it be possible the script replaces common parts of cpr files but leaves panels it doesn't know alone? (Worst are the NRG cpr files bringing up myfaves and the like)And does not show panels that are currently hidden? For say different versions of ClockExpanded w/o touching any of the others?
That would be most awesomest!
But even just replacing bronze in a jiffy is great, thanks,
Daniel

the cpr file is either all or nothing... no merging or editing....... basically the cpr file is similar in concept to the home.xml files..... the cpr file can be edited in notepad as well ( if you have a bit of understanding of how .css or .xml works) what basically happens is that the file( for the excalibur) it replaces the chome_320x240.cpr in the windows directory. The only way a .cpr file will mess up your panels (all by itself) is if a certain chome name ( such as "operator services" or "music") are omitted from the .cpr file..... usually the culprit is something in the registry that has to be manually changed.
I have mortscript.exe in my /Windows directory, courtesy of MiniWeather. If I place these two files into a directory on my storage card, will they still work ok, or do they need to be in the same folder as mortscript?

I believe it will work. If they say not associated with an app, then go to your mortscript.exe and click on it to see if that will register them and then try them again. If they still won't work, then you can do one of two things: 1) move the file changer.mscr and chomerefresh.exe into the folder with the mortscript(they only take up about 3 kb) or 2) download the mortscript cab I posted which I know can run files from anywhere. I have my changer in a new folder I made called changer along with all my files on the storage card. The cpr and dla files do not need to be in same folder as the changer itself, so you can put the cpr and dla files in storage while the file changer itself is in main.
Here's the theme and the dla by itself for all the longhorn fans!
The theme zip has the dll, the scheme.xml, and the UT wallpaper.
Enjoy, courtesy of Pudgedaddy, because he loves the longhorns.hehe
Right, Pudge? Maybe I'll see you at the Red River Rivalary game.
Mini Panels
Here's a cpr for mini panels, they are narrower in width and work with ODSHOWeather for the clock. Shown here with neon blue dll.
I really don't want this thread to end up in the dumpster. Its such a neat tool and i love theming my phone.
Here's a few new dll files just for sports. I included a gold and silver tint to go with the olympics(lol). Also, here's a texans logo panel.
Any requests for team logos?
Here's a new dll file for a variant of the chrome border, this one is by Kron2.

Can't get this to work.
Copied over your HTCVolumeControl.PNG file from your .rar to my tHD Windows directory (using Resco Explorer) but it had no effect.
Am I supposed to use the original .CAB file from your first link, first and then do this ?

Just copy the HTCVolumeControl.png to \Windows and soft-reset. That should do the trick.

I would like to ask if it will change the text as well? I use Chinese rom. Will the volume control screen's text change to English after install the png file?

No, it won't. The .png file only contains graphics and no text.
Nicely done! Trying several out on my THD.
Do you perhaps have the original Photoshop files in layers? Was thinking about using 1 of them, but changed slightly here and there (color of background bars).
great work.
but cannot download all the png files, could someone pls upload the attachment?

Well, would you beleive it if I told you that I have NEVER used Photoshop (maybe once or twice in a tutorial lesson..it scares me a bit!).. I used GIMP instead & didn't do much of a design.. Only relocated & adjusted a few things here n' there..
Again, I did not create these files, they were originally made for the Diamond in a different thread & I've adjusted them for HD.. <<< lazy lazy me!

I have found the solution to make High Quality wallpaper in 2.5.191xxx HTC Sense!
This solution let you have your own HQ wallpaper as default wallpaper and weather animation at the same time.
First you need a wallpaper with résolution 480x768(1),if you don't have it then resize HD wallpaper 480x800 into 480x768.
you need also the 2 manila files 4bfcbbee_manila(512x512 png file) & 54612042_manila (512x256 png file).
create new file with size 512x515(3) and very important with resolution"95,987"pixels!!!
Take your wallpaper(480x768) and from the upper side cut it in 480x515 and paste image in the new file you have made before on the left side,you will have empty area on the right side, then resize the file into 512x512.
Ok first image file is ready to replace in 4bfcbbee_manila file(with m9editor),be shure to unckeck "read only" in properties of the manila file first or you can't replace the image file in it,when the image file is replaced with m9editor then recheck "read only" before you copie it back in your windows folder!
Now the second file,follow the same steps as for the first file but cut your wallpaper from the bottom into size 480x256.
create new file with size 512x256(2) and very important with resolution"95,987"pixels!!!
Take your wallpaper(480x768) and from the bottom side cut it in 480x256 and paste image in the new file you have made before(512x256) on the left side too then it will look like this:
Ok second image file is ready to replace in 54612042_manila file(with m9editor),be shure to unckeck "read only" in properties of the manila file first or you can't replace the image file in it,when the image file is replaced with m9editor then recheck "read only" before you copie it back in your windows
folder!
Now copy both manila files you have create into windows folder of the HD,be shure to choose picture wallpaper first in menu on today screen.
When you have copyed both files into windows reset your device first!
When the device as restart then choose weather wallpaper and enjoy HQ wallpaper as default wallpaper
Here you have a screenshot with the result,i use Max Theme ultimate but its working without too.
I have work a long time on it to find this solution!
Im very sorry for my poor english,i hope its clear with this little tutorial and some pictures
Maybe we can use this to make new HDWALL for the 2.5 sense?
Also cookers can use it maybe?
Don't forget to say thanks if this is usefull to you
Tips & Trics
1.How to easy have the exact size to cut your wallpaper on the right position:
Thanks to kilzone who as given an easy solution!
there is an easier way to do this. When you select the marquee tool you notice (in the options bar) the option 'Style' which is probably set to 'Normal'. If you set this to 'Fixed Size' and type in 512x256 you have the exact size in one image (This is the correct way of making a perfectly sized marquee area.)
Looks good.
What programs do you use to make this? Where can I download them?

I have found the solution to make High Quality wallpaper in 2.5.191xxx HTC Sense!
This solution let you have your own HQ wallpaper as default wallpaper and weather animation at the same time.
First you need a wallpaper with résolution 480x768(1),if you don't have it then resize HD wallpaper 480x800 into 480x768.
you need also the 2 manila files 4bfcbbee_manila(512x512 png file) & 54612042_manila (512x256 png file).
create new file with size 512x515(3) and very important with resolution"95,987"pixels!!!
Take your wallpaper(480x768) and from the upper side cut it in 480x515 and paste image in the new file you have made before on the left side,you will have empty area on the right side, then resize the file into 512x512.
Ok first image file is ready to replace in 4bfcbbee_manila file(with m9editor),be shure to unckeck "read only" in properties of the manila file first or you can't replace the image file in it,when the image file is replaced with m9editor then recheck "read only" before you copie it back in your windows folder!
Now the second file,follow the same steps as for the first file but cut your wallpaper from the bottom into size 480x256.
create new file with size 512x256(2) and very important with resolution"95,987"pixels!!!
Take your wallpaper(480x768) and from the bottom side cut it in 480x256 and paste image in the new file you have made before(512x256) on the left side too then it will look like this:
Ok second image file is ready to replace in 54612042_manila file(with m9editor),be shure to unckeck "read only" in properties of the manila file first or you can't replace the image file in it,when the image file is replaced with m9editor then recheck "read only" before you copie it back in your windows
folder!
Now copy both manila files you have create into windows folder of the HD,be shure to choose picture wallpaper first in menu on today screen.
When you have copyed both files into windows reset your device first!
When the device as restart then choose weather wallpaper and enjoy HQ wallpaper as default wallpaper
Here you have a screenshot with the result,i use Max Theme ultimate but its working without too.
I have work a long time on it to find this solution!
Im very sorry for my poor english,i hope its clear with this little tutorial and some pictures
Maybe we can use this to make new HDWALL for the 2.5 sense?
Also cookers can use it maybe?
Don't forget to say thanks if this is usefull to you
Tips & Trics
1.How to easy have the exact size to cut your wallpaper on the right position:
Thanks to kilzone who as given an easy solution!
there is an easier way to do this. When you select the marquee tool you notice (in the options bar) the option 'Style' which is probably set to 'Normal'. If you set this to 'Fixed Size' and type in 512x256 you have the exact size in one image (This is the correct way of making a perfectly sized marquee area.)
When i try to copy the manila files to my windows folder it says i dont have permission to do this.The files are read only and when i try to change the attribute, nothing changes. Any ideas?

give me the files i will take a look
sorry wrong post..
I mean the files on the windows mobile device. I cannot overwrite them prolly because they are read-only, but when i change their attributes they are still read-only.
Hi there,
I was searching for some mods with my own wallpaper on different or all tabs, and stumbled across this fresh piece of code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3616825
Lets you create and install (via .cab) your custom made background (hires/all tabs) and slider icons.
Hope this helps.

Actually you can - even for 2.5.192xxx but you have to install grzegorz10_Background4all_Tabs-Manila_1920.CAB first, then select the manila 2.5 profile in the hdwalls settings. Then you have to install the cab and select weather wallpaper. Unfortunately for now i cant get it to work 100% correctly - i get black stripe on the right side of the screen - its like the size is not entirely correct, but i have the same problem using your method so it may be something related to the rom im using(or the all tabs background cab im using) or something like that - i have to check some stuff and figure this out.
edit: i measured the black bar on the right side of the screen and its width is exactly 29px
i think not 480X768
but 480X696

[Kitchen] How to create an acer E101 Rom, just for yourself?
First, here's a list of the different tools I've used:
Ryan Kitchen, from Ryan (Acer-club.ru) : http://acer-club.ru/Novaya-kuhnya-dlya-redaktirovaniya-proshivok-t822.html
Xip kitchen beta 6 from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443383
Stock rom from acer : http://www.acer.com/worldwide/selection.html (Lauch the utility and grab the flash.bin file located in the installation folder before flashing)
Latest WM build from Da_G : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445
SYS Porting Tool For Ervius Kitchen : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6138699&postcount=25
Step by step instruction:
01.Put your original flash.bin from acer website in the "Original_FLASH" folder in the Ryan_Kitchen
02.Execute the first batch "1.Disassemble_Flash.bat" and follow on screen instruction
03.Wait for 1 little minute after the end of the execution and lauch the second batch "2.Disassemble_Flash.bat"
You should now get a kitchen folder wich contains a "OEM", a "PACKAGEs", a "ROM" and a "SYS" folders. (and a dsm file on the root).
04.Delete everything in the ROM\XIP folder except the "boot.rgu" file.
05.Delete everything in the Sys folder, except the .ROM and .VM folders.
Creating your new XIP:
Extract all files from the latest build downloaded from DA_G and grab the xip.bin from it.
Get your actual xip from the Ryan_Kichen\Ectracted_ROM folder
Use Xip kitchen to build your new xip, follow the instruction of the original thread.
Copy the result xip-xip.bin to the Ryan_kitchen\New_XIP folder an rename it to xip_out.bin
Creating your new SYS
Extract all the files you need from the WM build with the sys porting tool for ervius kitchen (follow the original thread instruction)
For the ACER E1, we need to use 96 DPI and 240 * 400 resolution. I'm sure you know your regional code.
Copy all the files from the differents folders to a single one, to get something like what you've previously deleted from the SYS folder of the Ryan_Kitchen\Kitchen folder. Put all those files to this folder.
Copy all the files from the MSXIPKernel and the MSXIPKernelLTK from the WM build folder to the Ryan_Kitchen\Kitchen\ROM\XIP folder
06.Launch "3.Make_Flash.bat" and follow on screen instruction.
PkgToolsBuildOS is now runnig, go to BuildOS, click Load Rom and click The green triangle (play)
An error message appears (g'reloc not found) simply ignore it and close the program.
07.Launch "4.Make_Flash.bat" and follow on screen instruction.
08.Launch "5.Make_Flash.bat" and follow on screen instruction.
Your new rom is in the Ryan_Kitchen\Output_FLASH folder. Rename it to FLASH.bin and copy it to your SDCard.
09.Flash your phone.
It works for me, it should work for you.
Enjoy.

I've tried to cook manila directly in the rom without any succes, but feel free to try it.
Just for information, all the manila components used has been grabbed from the official HTC rom for the touch2 (mega).
You can simply used the ryan kitchen linked in the second post of the thread to unpack my rom and copy all the mega package from the OEM folder.
Enjoy.
Hello
Do not understand too much your topic on the establishment of Roms !
Maybe you could explain to me in French?
Thank you
