p.s I've tried search but didn't work out.Thanks in advance.
Your answer is SSMaPa - Here
Its a little executable that you run and change where you want the browser (for example, as you can do the clock etc) shortcut to link to.

Hi guys!
Do you know a contact application that can be intergated with tf3d? I mean instead of the normal contacts page to open that? What about icontact?
Thanks a lot!
Mike
Use this :

You can remap some buttons of tf3d to another app, works great, but read the thread before using it
Thanks dude!
Great work and easy to use!!!
hi all,
i am new @ this forum and found out some nice things. I'm using s2us, g-alarm, coloured icons for those icons at the right upper corner, digital battery display.
I have some question, but cannot find the answer at several fora. I hope you can help me:
1) What is the application called, that can set the background for s2u2? and how can i change the slider icon?
2) the icons at the right upper corner, are there apps to make my own? because i dont really like those i have now. or are there icons made by others that u can recommend me?
3) how can i download/install themes? any recommended themes?
4) i have seen many threads about manila, but cannot find out what it is. is it a theme or a app?
5) how can i delete apps that i dont want to use anymore?
6) any other recommended apps?
7) how can i change my start button, to that one with the htc logo?
thanx

Just before I start answering some questions, I know that you are new here, but one of the things that you'll very very very quickly learn is that people here have little tolerance for people who don't do their own searching. We're not angry people, it's just that the questions you ask have been answered previously (maybe not in so many words) and are just a quick search away. If you look at the top of the webpage, you'll see a toolbar. Going from the right side, there is "Log Out", "Quick Links" and "Search" (there are others). Click "Search" and you will generally be able to search for whatever you want.
Another handy website is http://www.google.com.
Now, onto your questions:
1) You can change the S2U2 background simply by reading the instructions that came with S2U2. Get the jpeg you want as your wallpaper, then copy it into /Program Files/S2U2/gfx. To find out more about customising S2U2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354111
2) Have a look in this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=474&order=desc
3) Have a look in this same forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=474&order=desc. There are many themes in here that are in the *.cab format. Simply copy+paste onto your device, then run it
4) Manilla is Touch Flo 3D
5) Start Menu -> Settings -> System -> Remove Programs
6) Use the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com or search this SAME forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=474&order=desc. Please please PLEASE don't ask how to use the wiki....because it's basically idiot proof.
7) This is answered in question 2. Have a look in this SAME forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=474&order=desc
FINAL TIP: be patient and SEARCH in this forum. I, along with many other people in this forum, have learned the hard way that just by doing a little search and being a little patient, you can find the right answers without annoying people.
Good luck!
First off, welcome to XDA. Secondly, I think skulk3r answered your queries very efficiently and eloquently. Others possibly wouldn't as these questions have been asked many times before.
I would remind you to read the forum rules, especially No.1 Search before posting.

Hi, new user here, thanks for a great forum.
I just got my HTC Hero and i am loving it. The only thing i am missing very much is a working application for renaming shortcuts. If you add a shortcut to a person "James", default action create message, it shows on the desktop as "Send to J...", which would be great to be able to change.
I have tried both Anycut and Bettercut but none of these work on my phone. I am currently using Modaco 2.5 Core, but i haven't been able to make any of th apps work with the generic european 2.73 rom either - the icons i create do not show up, the Edit button shows no shortcuts to edit, and the apps crash.
Question is then,
1) do anybody have any idea where shortcuts are stored in the filesystem, and how they are represented, data wise? I created a new shortcut and then copied all .db and .xml files to the pc and started looking for it with a sqlite client and file search I but couldn't find anything there. (lol, hey, had to try something
2) do anybody know a combination of a custom rom and a shortcut management application that work together on the HTC Hero?
3) do anybody have any pointers to how to manipulate the shortcuts through java code/api?
Thank you in advance. Hope to be contributing to the forum, im truly fascinated with this thing ! Truly a great gadget.
Best regards
hi guys,
I was wondering if someone could help. I have done a lot of searching but unable to find an answer. I am using the GXFX's rom which I am very pleased with. I also tried to install sushi's touchflo 3d config.cab file on top of this but get errors referring to 'exception errors', so I removed it. What I would like to do is
a. customise the home screen to add new icons. At the moment I have the large clock, call history and calendar. Is tehre any way of adding more icons or changing this screen without losing existing functionality and stability ?
b. How can i put an icon that open a web page to a certain url address, is this possible. I am thinking of terms of say windows XP. Maybe I am asking too much.
many thanks for your help.
can anyone help please ?
Hello
Could anyone write me a quick overview of creating icons for the HTC Desire.
I have looked, and searched ( Which seems to search google and not the site), as much as I can through the forum. I am a artist and would like to create a few icons packs, as I own this phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

It depends on what ROM are you using.. If your running LauncherPRO,GOlaucher or ADWlauncher/X then its very easy to create some icons. If your artist like you mentioned, then create some in Gimp/Photoshop, save it as .png, and transfer them into your phone. Then you must find setting in your laucher to change the icon image from your SDcard. Thats not the science
Hey there, and welcome to the forums.
I've been creating my own icons for quite some time, and I've found that this works the best no matter what launcher are you using.
1. Create your icon, If you're going for the 1x1 then a good resolution would be 128x128. If you want 2x1/1x2 tiles then you need 128x256 or 256x128. You get the idea. Save in .PNG and make sure the parts you want to be transparent are so.
2. Move your icons to your device, if moving a lot of icons, USB is the best but if you just need 1-5 icons transferred then Dropbox is very handy.
3. Download "Desktop VisualizeR". It allows you to create shortcuts with your own icons, with or without label texts.
If you want to change the icons you have on the dock, then it's very launcher-specific. I have LauncherPro, if you click and hold your finger on a dock icon, a menu pops up in which you can change the icon, the app, etc.
If you have any more questions, don't be afraid to ask.
Good luck!
Thank you Rafalema!
That is exactly the information I was after. If I could see the Thanks button I was +1 you, but for some reason I cannot.
However, as I cannot, I would like to say thanks again , I could not find that information for the life of me.

The Thanks button appeared after posting, so I have now +1ed you.
Thanks again lol
Thanks!
And when you're done with your icons/icon set make sure to post them in the 'Themes' Section!
