HTC Logo for Start Icon - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hey buys. First post. Love the forum. I have been searching for a SIMPLE way to change my start icon to the HTC logo. I have installed the HTC only cab but it also changed the icon for multiple notifications on my existing taskbar. I am running the stock sprint rom. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx

The Start menu icon is part of the taskbar. So unless you know how to modify specific files for just the Start menu icon, you're stuck with using taskbar packages made by our valuable XDA users.
Have a look at this one. It's pretty good to me at least.

Touch HD icon

I am looking for the icon displayed as Touch HD (you will see it on 'My Computer' when you connect your HD with ActiveSync).
But I would like to have it either as ico, svg, png file so I could use it myself for other folders or similar.
Any help?
Nobody?
For a better understanding i made a screenshot.
I want that icon as a ICO, PNG, etc. file.
Anyone?
A few sizes just for you All should be transparent backgrounds even thhough they dont appear that way on the screen
thanks a lot!
no prob wiz. i know they aren't perfect but i'm no pro. If you look at my sig now (i stole your idea haha) i mad one with the BG color of the forum so it would blend. For some reason this forum puts a white BG where transparent would go. Help yourself to it if you were going to put it in your sig
vista ico file and png
Here is another vista icon zipped.
I use large icons on my desktop and that gray spot on the right side of the original icon was annoying me so I removed it.
That original icon still shows up though under 'Portable Devices', does anyone know how to change that?
How will u chang eit?
HD icon
By the way, is it possible to change the icon of any programm? When yes, how?
Rgds,
Hi CorruptedSanity & francescrm, I guess those questions are addressed to me. They are not very clear so I will try to cover as much as I can...
CorruptedSanity, If you are asking how I changed the icon, I just used an icon editor program. If you are asking how will I change the icon that is showing up when you connect Touch HD to the computer, that is what I am trying to find out also but I think it involves locating and replacing "sync.ico" file both on the phone and vista.
francescrm, if you right click any shortcut or folder on vista and then click 'Properties' there is an option there to change the icon. If you are asking how to change it on phone, you can use a program called SK Shortcut Manager .
sk282, yep thats what I needed to know.
Thanks

If you are using a winMO 6.5 rom hComber is brilliant for changing icons, you can even find some on these very forums!

Change TF3D Tab color

I´ve modded my HD with nocurtains application and new Icons for the TF3D, however, the squares aroud the icons are still grey, is it possible to chande the color to match the theme?
If you mean like mine then I did it with the attached cab file (or at least I think it was that one that did it).
That´s it :d
How did you chenge the start icon? Have that CAB?
There's a thread about it here. I can't remember without looking but I seem to think the file also has various other icons altered. If you wanted a version with just the HTC logo altered I can do that for you? Or if you want the full coloured top bar I have a more recent version than in that thread that uses files just from the HD when possible.
I already have the colored topbar, but if you can post your version of the colored topbar with the icon changed it would be nice, can you also change the start to "iniciar" ?
Then can you post the cab for changing only the logo?
Sorry about the delay I got a bit sidetracked yesterday.
I've attached two cab files. One replaces the Start icon only (all the other icons are untouched). The other is one I created using just files from the Touch HD when possible (the other version knocking about seemed to use some differing files from the Diamond and also had two 80% battery indicators but no 79% which I've fixed). You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it. I've changed the word start to "iniciar" with a lowercase I. If you want it with a capital I let me know. I've been using the second one on my phone for a week or so but with Touch HD with no issues but other than me it's completely untested.
Also, the modified files are from a WWE ROM using English. I believe other locales use different files.
this thread will be moved to the theme , software and application section
It looks amazing
Please, send me the cab with Capital "I"
Can you explain me how do you make this cab files? To complicated for a noob?
Here's the same cab with full colour icons, HTC start icon and a capital I in Iniciar. You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it.
To create the top bar took a bit of figuring out at first but once I'd got my head around it it's fairly easy. All the guides are on the forums somewhere. I'll have a look to see if I can find the ones I used.
Once the files are modified creating the actual cab file to install them is very simple thanks to an excellent program called Quickcab that is also on the forums. You tell it which files you want copying to the phone and where you want them, create any registry keys that may need altering (this top bar has one key that changes the amount of battery statuses to 101). You then give it a description for Remove Programs and a file name and click create.
Hi friend! I liked your botton icons. Where can I pick this theme up? Does it include Stocks icon?
Thanks
It's from an excellent Diamond theme by DjOuBhAa called Simply Black. When the Touch HD first came out someone adapted the full theme but I only wanted the bottom icons so I took out the manilla files for the icons and made my own cab file. Unfortunately it doesn't include a Stocks tab icon (the original didn't either).
I've attached the cab I used as well as No Curtains to remove the top and bottom curtains and Pamas Transparant Slider to give a transparent slider and remove the background on the icons not currently highlighted.
It also looks very good on a lighter background
Hello, in the transparent slider i see an whit symbol only over the indizies-tab.
All others are ok. Can you help, that all tabs are blank, when sliding?
Thanks
Manfred
Thanks a lot for the icons and all the work you had.
There is only one other thing I would want it to change if possible, the battery icon, I saw one that looks better in my opinion, it´s somewhere around xda, but can´t find the link, please see post #2202 in the following link.

I've just double checked my Remove Programs and also my Cab folder and they're definitely the two I installed (apart from the actual icons) to get my slider as it is. The only thing I can guess at is if the order you install them in could make a difference? Maybe try them the other way around?

[REQ] Sprint Menu Icons missing a stock icon

Hi All,
I've just installed sprintmenuicons.cab to get the really nice looking icons at the bottom, but it's missing the small icon and the larger transparent picture that appears when swiping for the stock tab. I assume that this is due to the Diamond not having the stock tab present. Is anyone artistic enough and technically capable of adding this to the cab file?
Also, is it possible that we could start a menu icons thread here with attached screenshots and tabs that work on the HD? We've got clocks and top bars, but I've not seen a menu icon thread.
Cheers, A.
i'm also looking for the stock icon for sprint tab. thanks
can anyone offer the stock icon for sprint tab?

What taskbar icons are you using? (WM6.5)

Hi! I'm trying to replace my taskbar icons and I can't find something nice. I hate icons that are TOO colorful or too small to see.
For example, I enjoyed these icons on WM6.1, even if the WiFi icon didn't work properly. But these don't work in WM6.5. I liked gtrab's X seris too, but I guess he discontinued them.
I would also like to have the SE logo as the start menu icon, and also the bouncing logo as a waiting cursor, with transparency (possible in WM6.5).
Of course, the icons have to be compatible with WM6.5 (21874) and Manila 2.1.1919.
Any suggestions?
Nobody wants to share their taskbar icons? I can't believe that all of you use WM6.5 with stock icons. Or WM6.1.
These are the ones I used to have on my phone until I decided to go back to the stock icons. I preferred using the 5b version for the numerical battery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520547
More or less the same as the ones u linked except these are for 6.5 . Can't remember if it had the animated SE logo or not tho. Probably not.
I use this one but no SE start logo or bouncing waiting cursor for you...
Thanks, Euqrad, I think that's exactly what I was searching for.
Mopal, I'll also try the dusk icons, they look nice and discreet.
Wow thanks Euqrad, this taskbar is perfect !
@darthmelk
Well you made me miss those taskbar icons so I decided to use them again and put together a cab for the taskbar iconset D v5b including the battery percentage fix from here which includes the SE wait animation from here. Works just fine on my X1i so I thought I'd pop it in here in case you wanted to give it a try.
Credits goes to the respective owners/creators of these icons and I apologize in advance if I shouldn't have done this.
That is perfect, it works excellent, exactly what I wanted!!! Thank you very much!!! My X1 looks nice again!

How to change carrier wallpaper and color of sense 2.5

I have recently updated my ROM to the current ROM that is posted on the HTC website. I am enjoying it, but I would like to know how to change the stock blue color to black, as well has how to remove the carrier logo from all of the tabs, not just the home tab.
I have looked all over the internet for help with this and have not yet come across an answer. Can anyone help?

Change wallpaper: Settings tab > Personalize > Home tab wallpaper
Remove carrier logo: Use a custom ROM. To the best of my knowledge, the carrier logo (I'm assuming AT&T) is layered into Sense. You can't remove that.
Browse around the themes section of the TP2 forum, to find options to remove the stock blue ATT theme. Dusk is one nice looking option:

To change the background in all tabs, you might try Cookies Home Tab. It has the ability to do this easily, and tons of other awesome customizations. I've linked both CHT 1.8.5, and also the 2.0 beta, which adds tons more customizations (such as an Android-style 3-screen wide home tab) but has a few bugs still (only one I have found is some occasional spontaneous rebooting of Sense, and the Quicklinks move around by themselves once in a while):

There are other solutions for changing the background in all tabs, just use the Search function and type "background all tabs rhodium 2.5".
