OK many users have asked me to revert changed (skinned) taskbar icons back to the stock XPERIA ones (most taskbar skins are currently uninstallable, but not when the user has over-installed a new CAB or when they are pre-cooked into a ROM)
I have prepared two CABs with all the XPERIA stock files
These CABs will revert all of the taskbar icons to the original stock ones
Choose the proper CAB for Windows Mobile 6.1 or Windows Mobile 6.5
THIS IS BETA
PLEASE TEST AND REPORT
[26 nov 09] EDIT:
I have prepared a CAB to re-install the STOCK XPERIA battery only, registry keys included, for WM6.5 ROMs (could be compatible to WM6.1 ROMs too, so please test)
is there a way to just replace the wait icon for 6.5 from the green SE bouncy one..
YES it will be done, for sure
I'm currently dissecting 6.5 files
Just let me finish the surgery and I will report after washing my hands
dissect away...because the 6.5 unistaller doesn't work..i had to reflash today

modifying the font ??
1- Get your new font, rename it to tahoma.ttf
make a copy of your font and rename to tahomabd.ttf
2- Open both with font creator (http://www.high-logic.com/fontcreator.html)
Go to Autonaming
3-Change the name of your font to "Tahoma" and "Tahoma Bold" respectively. Save both
4- Copy your "tweaked" tahomas to /windows/ (replace the stock ones) -> reset
Done
PS: I can not test the WM6.5 CAB untill I get my WM6.5 ROM absolutely finished and streamlined to the Sony OEM software package, then I will test
thanks you very much
Thanks for making the cab - unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work.
I'm installing it over Jack's Full 3.3 ROM, which has Anx1 Tsowen Taskbar by default.
After installation, the taskbar icons are completely blank, and all the other icons in the start menu, file explorer, etc. are corrupted, eg. folders have the internet explorer icon.
Any ideas for a fix?

This CAB restores the tweaked files only
You can ask ANGELUSZ for the required registry changes (they are just 2 values I guess)
Once you change those registry keys back, all will return to normality
thank you very, very muvh!
the cab didnt work.. i got the same results as _Robert_ did, all the icons disappeared, and there were just blank spaces.
i tried this fix though, something about using MAX TF3D and restoring the original icons:

but anyhow, thanks very much for your help, gtrab!
Anyone who know how to get stock icon files in windows mobile 6.5 ?
Or to change the them ? Please help
Hey so i just installed the WM6.5 icon pack and it all works and all but you recieve the charging symbol even after you unhook the device after charging
EDIT:NEVERMIND
Hey,
great cab, reverted everything except for the volume control on Kisja's WM6.1 Sense 2.5 RC1 rom. Any fix for this?
THIS IS FOR THE XPERIA X1 USER INTERFACE
Manila/TouchFlo/Sense phones use a different, customized phcanOverBMP.dll (which contains the taskbar icons)
So this CAB is not recommended for sense/manila/tOUCH flo devices
Try at your own risk
Why some people think
PS: If you are using a cooked ROM which includes manila, then ASK THE COOKER, because installing XPERIA STOCK files over MANILA will creatre a MESS of course.
Why some people think XPERIA has "native manila ?? Thiat's a Blasphemy !!
I just used the Stock XPERIA X1 battery icons WM6.5.cab on the H.V4 Sense Rom and so far it works with no problems.
hello everyone. i want the colored 6.1 style start button on my 6.5. will this 6.1 stock cab help? is there another way to do it?
Is it possible to convert an iconset from 6.5 for use on 6.1 ?? Is there a gd guide I could start from ?
I love the yellow folder icons in some of the new 6.5 roms but there were not enough category folders. So.... I designed my own in Photoshop so that they would totally match the existing icons in the Start Menu.
Install restart app.
Extract and copy the png icons to storage card\Programs\restart\icons folder.
Go to windows\start menu\programs and add new folders such as Web, Travel, Audio, Video, Fun, Utilities, etc etc
Launch restart to change the default folder icons to the new icons.

hi @ll,
does anybody know, how to change the slider icons? i mean i know it is possible but i don´t know the way to change them. the cabs which can be downloaded are great but i would love to have my own icons.
the rom is use is called ROM][GER][WM6.5][05.12.09]German V11 21854 Manila 2.5 and can be found
there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529794
..so long

use manila editor to find the manila files you want to change. save them as png's and edit/replace them in any paint program with the ones of your choice.
do a search for manila editor
Hello,
i just want to share my Homescreen-Appearance with all of you and give the germans out there a helpin hand.
It took/takes alot of time to find the files and cabs that made the homescreen look like the screens attached, and so its easier to find them in one single post.
Everybody who wants to have a nearly german manila can use the files attached.
Everybody else: only the files that are described to be german are german so u can use the other files without limitation
All files can be found in xda-forum or htc-developers etc...
They are free to download, therefore BIG THX to the developers.!
I haven't made the cabs/manila-files myself so i CAN'T and WON'T give support if they don't work with your HD.
The manila-language files are edited by myself.
I'm using Miri WM 6.5 WWE 21889 :: MANILA 2.5 :: REV 18.0 (latest Manila 1922 and working "My Location" signed rilphone 1.15.25.14, cab from Cortez.I)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542104
Radio: 1.17.25.09
So i can fully confirm they are workin with this ROM and RADIO.
If I change the language of a WWE Rom via the registry i loose at least SMS incoming sound, there is no fix!, so far (others reported u will loose much more...)
So i decided to edit only the manila language files to have most of the functions and buttons in GERMAN and set the manila to german in settings: (Settings->Locale & text->Location->Region:German(Germany)) for correct Date and Currency!
The manila files have to be copied with Total-Commander (or similar tool) to the \Windows\*.* folder and overwrite the old ones,
AFTER removing the DESCRIPTION i added to file name. Example:
2c89bd29_manila25-germanhomescreen ---> 2c89bd29_manila (its the language file for "normal" WWE en-us)
And of course u have to Softreset after installing the cabs or files!
U cannot rollback after u copied the files unless u saved the original files first or someone is making a .cab of them!!!
5fa4d4b7_manila25-wvganoflippingclock:
the clock still flips but the unnecessary flipping if u are going back to homescreen will be stopped.
The background is stock right after flashing the ROM. But i have switched off the Weather animation via registry because if u switch the animation off by using an animation wallpaper, there is no simply black Background (Miri has cooked this background from the LEO)
HKCU/Software/HTC/manila/Home.WallpaperMode
change from dword 0 to dword:1.
The weather animation in Home tab will be disabled
I hope, everybody is enjoying these changes like i do....
P.S. rest of the files second post.

Hi All,
I would love to create a thread that is a central hub for the following...
1. A series of steps on HOW to change icons on Roms...from folders, to programs etc
2. A set of icons or a library of icons people can download to use.
3. Make cabs to allow others to download and install on their HD easily
There is an example of some of this on the HD2...but what about our HD?
Can anyone help with any of these aspects?
Thanks
J
