@gtrab
I've installed an earlier series of your icons (from V1.50, I think) on my Polaris (P3650)
Only QVGA, so not as pretty, but they work fine and present much better than the bog-standard ones in most ROM's. They consume very little Storage, of course
Great work! Nice.
The whole set was re-compiled to avoid conflicts but I am glad to hear they also work in the Polaris
Just to check for sure. Is this compatible with the R2AA010 roms?
As these have different shellres.192.dll 's
If so... how did you get reshacker to open the bitmaps inside the dll?
It crashed here...

You need PE Explorer to edit shellres
But it is basicaly the same (R1, R2...8 and R2...10) at least regarding icons and dialogs
Thank you for pointing out PE explorer
works like a charm!
_________________
EDIT:
Somehow it doesn't work that charming
It opens the file and makes it easily editable.
But when sending back to the phone it messes up the icon order and it's not working.
When skimming through the dll there seem to be some icons that do not work ..
any idea how/why this is possible?
have attached the original and my version to see if it makes more sense to somebody else..

1- Did you unsign -> edit -> sign the DLL ??
2- Do you have your registry tweaked to re-route batt & signal icons to phcanOverbmp.DLL ??
3- Is you phcanOverbmp.DLL stock or has modded icons inside ??
(phcanOverbmp.DLL icons will override shellres.192.DLL signal/battery icons and other)
4- Have you installed any program which adds HTCvolumecontrol.DLL ??
(HTCvolumecontrol.DLL is NOT presnent on stock Xperia, but it will override your shellres.192.DLL Speaker icons)
5- Sure your cooked 32x32 @ 32 bits icons into your new DLL ??
Double check and tell me what happens
does anyone know of a way to inclease the sixw of the "X" ( close ) button. also all the start menu icons?

Yup...it's in itjes 4.0 rom... does this only effect the speaker icons? (don't care to change those..)

the windows icon seemed to be 41x41 pixels when exported
I'll test in the next days, unfortunately deadly busy at the moment.
But will get back to it!

Yes the start icon is different, but after many many hours of frustrating trial and error tests I can give you a hint:
Better make it 41x36 or it won't look OK
As an example, here I let you my own START logo for the upcoming "X" series "standard" version (non-SE) - It MUST be 41x36 to display properly
.
Thanks.
Looks good

Hi! Do you think it'll be possible to do a change in the next version that in the flight mode to appear a small plane icon? And, will be too much asking for a wait bouncing icon without the square frame, too?? Just wonder..
Good work. Thanks.
thanks. very nice indeed!! looks much better than the standard icons. i notice youre working on a newer Fseries. any chance of making the "vibrate" icon different? at a quick glance its very similar to the silent and loud speaker icons. thanks

Yes I am working on a completely new speaker icons set for this series, plus Line 1 and 2 icons and other improvements
"F" series updated
Added Line 1 and Line 2 icons
Changed speake vibrate and off icons
Many other goodies
Enjoy
Thank you very much for the beatiful icons
Can I ask one little thing ? I'm using the wireless today plugin, which is very useful when you use the standard WinMo today screen.
Since I installed your icon set, the bluetooth icon of the wireless today plugin doesn't display (I have a white square instead).
Do you think it is possible to fix it? Many thanks
cheers mate! i appreciate ya work
thanks
look great

SEX1 VolumeControl I
WORKS & RELEASE DATES
26 feb 09: SEX1 ALUM VolumeControl II
- Added SONY ERICSSON FONT: Will apply to VolumeControl, CommManager & Camera, optionl font in word etc. [PS: should I make the font bigger ?? tell me what do you think !!]
22 feb 09: SEX1 ALUM VolumeControl I
- Based on Itje's Touch-IT porting from HTC Volume Control (WVGA full screen display)
- Font changed to Tahoma, resized from 18 to 16 points (I didn't like how it looked)
- Changed label "Ringer" for "Phone" (why? because!) May like to have "silent" instead of "mute" too ??
- Skinned buttons and Volume bars to match SEX1 ALUM series - my artwork adding a touch of Xperia-esque metallic brushed alluminum finish to the "vibrate" and "silent" buttons and the volume bars - the attached pics don't honor the great looks of it !!
- Fixed DLL locale from chinese to WWEnglish 0409
INSTRUCTIONS
1- Uninstall any other HTC VolumeControl app first (REQUIRED or you may not be able to uninstall later)
2- Install SDKCERTS (REQUIRED or may not work properly because I signed the system files with a Private Developer SDK certificate)
3- Copy the CAB to your phone and click it to install
4- Restart phone immediately (IMPORTANT)
NOTICES
- Standard taskbar speaker icons included; special speaker icons can be added on request
- As always, feel free to edit/share/change/mod/tweak my work; and of course, if cheffs find it useful it can be cooked into any recipe
- If you want to get rid of the standard "beeps" go to \windows\ and delete "Volume-20", "Volume-40", "Volume-60", "Volume-80" & "Volume-100" (Tip thanks to jcsxda)
- Developers/cookers ZIP package with all source files on post 2 (including the Sony Ericsson-like font)

Just want to say thanks to you and to all developers for make so many good application and other stuff....
Keep going that nice....
I hope you understand what i mean........
gtrab: WOW! It looks fantastic! Does it have any issues with the X1 or can I use it for cooking?
Zero issues Norti
I missed the HTC Volume Control from my ole diamond, and the Touch-IT Volumecontrol solution was not working as I wanted into my Xperia, so I decided to tweak the program myself to make it better and a little Xperia-esque
IMHO the Tahoma font at 16 points looks great and the brushed alluminum buttons were a must: I bleeding needed to integrate this app with my phone
Whatsmore, it's 100% compatible with tsowen's taskbars, FInixNOver's icons, Angelusz's works over tsowen and my taskabar
You wanna cook ?? I posted the tweaked DLL, MUI and PNG files to share with all of you, so go ahead and have fun Norti
PS: The MUI file is WWE 0409, but I can edit the text to whatever you want

Thank you, I think I'll give it a try in future ROM versions
great, your version fixes the bug with losing focus in all applications on screen rotate after volume control was active, that i had with other versions..thanks
I appreciate this (and all) works, but why should I use this instead of Touch-IT HTC volume control? skin?
Does this require M2D/M3D/manilla?
This looks great gtrab!
Have been looking for something more finger-friendly than the system volume control ...one question -will it work on standard ROM running normal today? Or does it require manilla to be installed / running?
Am hoping i can use it without TF3D etc (as I don't use that) -beautiful graphics!!

If you like the font of the original one and can live with it's landscape mode then you don't need this one
Main difference is this is not a plain "transplant" from Blackstone, I have worked it (re-scripted DLL & MUI and skinned PNG) to better match the Xperia
Ive installed it, tried installing it on sd card first then installed it on device still does not work, an ideas?
And 1 other thing, An SE style manilla dialer would be amazing, i really liked that dialler before i removed tf3d and settled with spb mobile shell 2.0

1- install it into the DEVICE, not the SD card (files must be copied to /windows/)
2- Install the Xperia original dialpad, go to this thread
I do have the original xperia dialpad. and it is installed on the device now still not working thanks for swift response
Beautifully designed!
Installed and working perfectly -thanks so much gtrab!!
One quick question -is there a way to stop (or customise) the confirmation sounds ...the beeps each time you change the volume level?
I just want it to be silent -no beeps when changing volume ...is this possible?
Works perfectly. Thank you for this! My only complaint is the default speaker icon. I will need to reinstall darklord's icon, but that is forgiveable.

Since many taskbar icons sets and HTC VolumeControl both use the same DLL file, one will always replace the other
Plan A: Uninstall darklord's icons, install VolumeControl, reinstall darklord's icons
Plan B:Gimme the speaker icons you want into VolumeControl and I can cook them for you
Remove or change "beep" sounds when setting volume
@gtrab
I've now installed your SEX1 icon set too ...both are working and looking just fantastic! Many congrats on your design skills.
Is it possible to remove the beep sounds when changing the volume level please? I just want silence as I change the volume...
Is this possible??

Thanks for your kind words, but I am more a "skinner" than a "programmer"
The "beep" is normal behaviour on every HTC VolumeControl
I have no clue on where to change it, but I will take a look inside the DLL guts again
The idea is great, but it does kill my volume icon.
I don't see why, as there's no Windows DLLs being replaced, very odd.
What can be the cause?

SEX1cons_X_v1.1-GreenSE.CAB [Start icon: Green Sony Ericsson, Waiting cursor: bouncing Sony Ericsson]
Developers package [DLLs, ICOs, shellres variants] available on post 3
- darthmelk asked for a TF3D2 "single-slider" HTC Volume Control version
so I prepared a VolumeControl DLL for all of you using TF3D2
If your volume slider looks like this, you need to add this DLL @ post footer to keep it single instead of double
Just replace HTCVolumeControl.dll @ /windows/ with this one
- These are screen caps from R3PUBL1K to show how the "X" series "Line 1" icon displays
(this was just a test for the "Line 1" icon only, the others are not mine):
And this is the "Line 1" icon for the "F" series:
Also, I will try to make separate CABs later, this way anybody will be able to add Line 1 & Line 2 icons to their favorite icons set
AND MORE TO COME !!
SOON: I'm working on a "deluxe" version of the "X" series with more detailed & colourful icons
Sort of this:

I really like your X Series. I'd suggest that you make a SE and Standart version like the one you made in Beta 3. I love this blue / silver windows logo.
If you consider making more versions with "more detailed & colourful icons" ... I really like the combination of blue and silver. Blue battery and earth from Beta3 were great .
Thanks for your work on all this icons and skins! Keep it up

I like indeed the blue windows logo :>. You could go with a SE logo version and I take the windows one .
It's just the question if gtrab wants to make several diffrent cabs with just one new icon (start logo). Alternatively we could replace the icon ourselves if gtrab publishes them and tells us what to do . They are not in the current ICO package, aren't they?
how do i get the battery indicators to show on the task bar? I'm using vista hide right now...but rather use yours.

Pretty simple, just remove VistaHide and soft reset.
Tried the icons, the animation is great, the icons look good, maybe smaller than I thought.
What I would like:
1. Green SE start icon and bouncing SE wait icon included. I overwrote the shellres.192 file but I would prefer it to be integrated in your cab.
2. Red battery when low.
3. Move the signal bars up not to overlap the icon border. Or if you can't do that, cut the border where the signal bars will be displayed. It will look nicer.
4. Bigger battery icon without the numbers.
Nice job!
I'd like green SE start and wait icon too

ok...thanks...

Perfect work! Thank You, Lord!
Now this is near perfect for me...
Thanks very much
Do you have plans to work on the animated AS icon?
Excellent, I think you managed to please everyone!
I think the only problem now is with the signal bars over the icon border. Does the system put the bars in that position or you chose to make the icons that way?

gtrab mentioned this before to me...
There´s nothing I can do about the signal bars being out of frame cause those bars are generated, not replaceable icons as the other ones
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
SO it might be better to this icon differently without the boarder? or just make a change to the icon and remove the bottom bar
Well, then I guess the best idea is to cut the border where the bars appear.
Nice job gtrab...looks nice on xperia
Thanks a lot...
@gtrab
For now on, i stick with this set that I love it.
As I asked in the F series, is it possible to do a small change that when switch to plane mode to see an icon like a plane? Something like my second image (excuse my lack of talent).
And, for the wait bouncing SE logo, can be done without the square? Only the circle?
Thanks!

It's easy to do it yourself:
unsign shellres.192.DLL
edit the DLL with reshacker or PE explorer
START icon is no. 292 inside the DLL
go to icon 292 and replace it with your desired icon
re-sign the DLL
copy it to your /windows/ folder
Sorry, i'm a n00bs here.
If i want to install both the start icon and the wait animation, what should i do?
Do i just simply install the cab files or there's something else i should do?
Thx.
nice work dude
Is this meant for a specific WM version?
I installed it, and while the bouncing wait icon works just fine (and looks very nice ) the rest of the icons don't work
The start menu icon is missing, as are most of the other statusbar icons (battery, network... only bluetooth icon is visible)
Also other icons seems to be messed up; settings option in the start menu suddenly has the sim-card-toolkit icon...
After uninstalling all is back to normal.
My OS version is 5.2.19608 (Build 19608.1.2.60)
(Vodafone UK R2AA007 version)

Nice work, been looking to change the look of the ugly windows logos but wanted to keep the simple white icons, this did just the job. Cheers!
I love the bouncy thing. I have a request if it's possible.
Is there a way to remove the square box surrounding the SE logo? I think it would look much cooler with just the circle.
Great stuff, keep it up.

It's impossible to change it because that's the way Microsoft made it
Maybe you have forgotten your stock one: take a look at the "standard" spinning windows wait cursor and you will notice it has the same white square surrounding the spinning circular windows flag...

Another n00bish question here, is the border on the square mandatory? I'm asking because PNG files support transparent background and perhaps we could use png's for the animation instead... I'm just brainstorming here.

The wait anime is a sequence of BMPs, not PNGs
You can contact akp99 or angelusz, they have been testing for transparency
This is awesome, thanks.
works like a charm....love your work man...THANK YOU!!!
awesome! thank you!
Update: 25/04/2010 Sorry everyone due to my current heavy workload, I just don't have the time to focus on this, so with that in mind I'm putting development on HOLD until I have ample free time to resume again!
In the mean time if anyone else want's to continue development with this please feel free to do so!:
Update 15/02/10: Ok guys after putting up the screenshot of the V6 Final with the new battery icon, I can see some of you don't like it therefore I have decided to attach V6 TEST 5 so that you can actually see how the icons really look on the device because IMHO the screenshot doesn't do justice to the new battery icons!
If after V6 TEST 5 the general consensus is that the new battery icon is a NO, then for the Final release I will revert to the V5 Battery Icon and the numerical battery icon!
Also this time when you install the V6 Test 5 cab the START text will be displayed, if you don't wont that then install attached NO START Text patch!
P.S> This is only for GSM not compatible with CDMA!
Although V6 is for HD2 users, I think it should be compatible for any WVGA Devices using WWE ROM's so it should work on Touch HD, TP2 and Diamond 2.
Changelog Version 6:
- Works best with HD2 1.66 WWE ROM
- 2 Versions with or without START Text being displayed
- HTC Volume Overlay Fixed
- Added Green Overlay to appear in other Apps i.e. Core Player, Opera, Resco Photo Manager etc...
- Battery Bug Fixed
- New Airplane Mode Icon*
- New Roaming Icon
- Updated Data Icons G,3G,and H
- SIM Pin Pad Graphic error Fixed
- New Cleaner Battery Icon
- New Speaker Icon's
- Cleaned a lot of the files
To Do:
- Finish off CDMA version!
*Please Note: you will sometimes get Airplane icon appear when there is no signal present, this is normal, it's not a bug it's how the OS calls on this icon when no signal being recieved by the phone!
Please ignore below Screenshot as this will NOT be the Final version!!!:

Brain's Taskbar WM6.5 ~ gfreek edition Version 5a/b!!!
Version 5a = New Battery Icon
Version 5b = Old Numerical Battery icon
Brians WM6.5 Taskbar - gfreek edition Version 5a/b Change log:
- BT Stereo Headset mask fixed!
- BT Wireless Stereo Icon
- MMS Icons Fixed
- Nicer 3G, HSPA, GPRS Data Connection added thanks to Spike and Eac!
- New Speaker Icons
- Vibrate Icons
- New Signal Bars
- New Battery Icon with big percentage numbers that can be read clearly from a distance!
- Old numerical Battery Icon for Version 5b
- New File explorer folder and Storage Card* icons that match default wm6.5 folders
- CDMA compatibility**
*due to the limitation of the wm6.5 handling any icons that reside in the shellres.192.dll you cannot put any fancy folder icon’s example with drop shadows and angles as they look very blocky and poor so I have stuck with the default wm6.5 folders icons although still not that great they look ok! I did experiment with other folder icons which also looked good but decided against it because some of you guys might not like it!!
**I’m not 100% sure that all the CDMA icons have been done as I’m in the UK so those that use CDMA please confirm if it’s working for you if not post screenshot of icon issue and I will try to fix it!
Tested and working fully with Duttys HD WM6.5 R6 Turbo and Miri WM 6.5 23004 :: V 23.0
Note: Please uninstall any previous versions or any other custom taskbar before installing this and as always install attached sdkcerts.cab before installing, if you have already done so then NO need!

Alternative Mirror thanks to shawcyn! http://www.homeserver.com.my/download/wm/gfreek/
For matching taskmanager dropdown icon there is a workaround solution look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=231
For Version 5b go to post #2!!!
P.S. For those who have the battery percentage not in sync with your notification manager i.e. there is a discrepency of 1% then do the following:
go to registry HKLM\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps and change the DWORD value of "BatteryIconsLevels" from 101 to 102 and soft reset, battery level will now be in sync with system battery monitor orinstall the attached cab fix!
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS ONLY FOR WM 6.5 ROM's SO WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY ON WM 6.1 ROM's! FOR WM 6.1 get Spikes excellent taskbar here: Spike's ~ 6.1 MicNeo TaskBar Varients
Special thanks to InsecureSpike and m6silver, you guys are amazing!!
Known issue with some ROM’s when installing this taskbar:
The start logo, signal and other icons do not change this is because this taskbar works well with WWE ROM’s that call on the taskbar file shellres.192.dll in windows folder for these icons, if you are using a ROM that calls on shellres.192.dll.0409.mui if it’s English ordepending on the language you have on your ROM that 0409 number could be different example 0410 etc...then not all the icon’s will change!!!
This can be fixed after installing this taskbar go to windows folder of your device and you should see these 2 files shellres.192.dll and shellres.192.dll.0409.mui first rename shellres.192.dll.0409.mui toshellres.192.dll.0409.mui_z andthenrename the shellres.192.dll to shellres.192.dll.0409.mui in the windows folder of your device using either Total Commander or Resco File explorer soft reset that should do the trick! If this sounds complicated then post here with the name of that file in the windows folder of your device example shellres.192.dll.0409.mui or whatever it is then I can post a cab fix here!
Same as above version but with the old battery icon!!!

Thank You, Working great on Dutty's WM6.5 R1
Reserved for any updates and fixes!!!
lol, god bless you <3
hey gfreek..
I really like your fix!! And thank you very much!
But it doesn't seem to work on Dutty's 3.3..
Maybe someone else can confirm what I've experienced?
I used the sdkcert which you attached but still not working correctly..
Here's a screenshot to show you what I get shown..
3.3 is WM 6.1, right? this is a 6.5 taskbar
Ups.. my fault..
Sorry for that.. But would it be possible to make this work on 6.1?
Thanks in advance!

As I use WM 6.5 Rom on my HD so sorry this version of Brians Taskbar is only for WM 6.5 ROM so will not work Dutty's WM 6.1 v3.3, the taskbar .dlls files on WM 6.5 are different from WM 6.1!!
I'll see if I still have the old Brians WM 6.1 Taskbar Icons on my laptop no promises but I'll try to fix the icons and will post it here!
That would be awesome! Thank You very much..
perfect!!
was gonna do this later, but you've saved me the trouble

Ok piccolopunto I managed to find the old Brians WM 6.1 Taskbar files and have edited the Start, OK and X buttons! not 100% sure if it will work so can you please test and report back! many thanks!
I tried to upload the cab here but for some reason it doesn't upload? so can you download from here: LINK REMOVED! cab does not work sorry!!!
Sorry man bad news.. it doesn't work.
But thank you very much for the effort..
Hi there... I just installed the taskbar icon and i love it! However is it possible to change the color from green to blue? Like in the signal bar, bluetooth icon and wifi... And I hope there will be an icon when you beam a file. Thanks!
Sorry man bad news.. it doesn't work.
Everything is the same as in 6.5 version..
I did check twice and I'm sure i did install the one you've uploaded..
I'm confused..
But thank you very much for the effort..

Thanks for testing it! just want to clarify does it install ok and you get graphic icon errors? or it just does not install at all?
Sorry piccolopunto if I was using a WM 6.1 rom I know I could get to the root of the problem and fix it!!
I would recommend you to try a WM 6.5 rom trust me it's now a lot stable then a few months ago it's comea long since then! I'm using miri's v14 wm 6.5 with no problems at all and this is someone who would religously would use only Dutty's ROM's on a daily base not to long ago!!
Ok i've desided to put out the first release of my Max Manila Theme
Install instructions see below
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

}
Install
1. Ok first, if you do not already have it installed, install No Curtains, you don't have to but I recomend it.
2. Install the Touch X startmenu transparent BG, this will make the startmenu fully transparent (looks realy good with this theme)
3. Install the Theme cab
4. If you like to use the HQ Wallpaper install the HQ cab
5. Set the Dark Woman Pic as Wallpaper for both Home and lockscreen
(6. May need to softreset)
Enjoy
Release info
Ok the Theme is optimized to use with the small clocks and only 1 Calendar Thingy.
You can set the big clock and/or 2 Calendar entries, but the pics will be a little bit of
Have fun and tell me what you think.
If you need them here are the Notifications PNG's and manila files but it should be included in the cab
@skilty don't know why it doesn't work but you know you have to use max manila ultimate
REQUESTET STUFF

Very Very nice, i wonder if we could see more colours like green for example ?
Does it work with stock roms?
Nice theme!
just tried it on my VGA diamond..everything works fine except the clock and the notification icons..
could you post the images and manila files and i'll try and find the right files to change.. i'm running manila 2.519202525.0
keep up the good work
@skilty don't know why it doesn't work, the files are in the second post
@WingZer0n I guess it should, but I haven't tried (but for all to work you have to have installed max manila)
Yeh really like this, very nice, installed it onto Miri Ver14 but I'm missing the clock mods and don't have 5 program shortcuts :s
Do I need Max Installed to run these settings?

you shouldn't do anything with the png's exept create manila files off theme
you have to copy the manila files of the notification icons into the windows folder. (you can't use the normal explorer for that, use Totalcomander)
if it still doesn't work, try my other notification theme link in my signature

hanx for ur reply
Meant changing BLUE to GREEN ( clock, tab icons, noti icons..etc )
Great theme, but having two problems. The top bar hasn't changed (not transparent) and the bottom windows bar (Phone/Menu bar) hasn't changed either. Anyone else seeing problem with those or have any ideas why it's not working for me?
Using L26HDLEOV3.
Thanks
Looks great hempe. I'm using your black flip; you missed a file out for it in the clocks zip so here's a zip with all the flip bits.

1. Have you softreset after installing the theme cab?
if you didn't do so else or if the problem remains
2. check with total comander what's the value of:
Code:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\SoftKeyBar\SoftKeyBarThemeImage
shoud be \Window\HDWall_softkeybar.png
and
Code:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\TaskBar\SoftKeyBarThemeImage
shoud be \Window\HDWall_taskbar.png
if the registry entry are those, check if the HDWall_... are the right pngs

Checked the registry values and they were the default ROM values. I checked my windows folder I do not have HDWall_taskbar.png nor HDWall_softkeybar.png. Which cab is suppose to install those? Any way you could provide me with the two .png files and I'll just manually set them? Oddly enough, lockscreen and startmenu look like they should (except the background is not HQ like the background in manila...not sure if that's normal).
Much thanks!
ok i put a zip with the cab that should install the softkeybar and taskbar in the secound post.
You have to softreset after installation.
The png's are also included in the zip
BEST THEME for sense 2.5 as of NOW!!! Thanks. To make it compatible with MaxUltimate. Great great effort!
