[Icon Set] AppTile & AppIcons for Advanced Config [Collection Thread] - Windows Phone 7 General

My colletion of AppIcons & AppTiles for replacing the icons with Advanced Config by Julien Schaps.
Added new Glass Icons & Some more Icons to the non Glass version.
Instructions;
Download & Install Advanced Configuration Tool for Windows Phone 7 Beta from above link. Download is near the middle of the page above the comments & advertisement.
Copy the AppTile_*.png & AppIcon_*.png's to \Windows of the device using Windows Phone Device Manager or the USB Hack/TouchXplorer/Advance Explorer methods.
Open Advanced Config Tool & change to Tile & Icons tab.
Select desired app/hub & then select the desire AppTile & AppIcon png's. (Some Hubs/App are currently disabled in the Advanced Config tool because they have Live Tiles & changing those Tile images will cancel out the Live Tile Functionality.)
Select Change, then OK to confirm changes.
There's a second pop up asking you to restart to make changes, click OK if done, Cancel if you want to change more icons.
NOTE: According to the developer of Advanced Configuration Tool, schaps, it works with HTC & LG devices for change icons. The tool also has some support for Samsung devices, but NOT Icon changing. Please report any problems about it not working to the developer. This thread is just a collection thread for icons. I can't help getting it working.

Not exactly an XDA thing or on topic, but found an interesting Windows tweak for Media Center. I've always hated how if you mute Media Center, it mutes the system volume so you can't play music/youtube/etc in the background really. Well I found an app/shortcut "hack" that'll allow this. Download Media Center Mute & follow the instructions included. The just click the shortcut to mute/unmute Media center without effecting the system volume.

Can i upload my custom icons here too? Or should we open a collection thread?

I am going to be doing more as time goes on. I also made a glass over lay for the tile, just need to figure out how to customize the tiles first.

DOWNLOAD LINK
The site has both WM 6.5 CAB files & WP7 XAP files. You want the XAP files, he makes apps for both OS'es. You need your device Unlocked & Tom XAP Installer v1.2 to side load the app. There are quite a few thread here on XDA that have instructions to Unlock your device.

No reason, I just didn't know the specific size & figured 200 x 200 should be big enough & would be scaled down.

Be my guest to unload yours here. I'll change the title to "Collection Thread".

3 icons in metro style
These are my first icons, in metro style
Special made for:
Ascii Art SMS
DeBrander (Homebrew)
RemoveSideloadLimit (Homebrew)
I know they are not the greatest, but maybe you guys will like them

how to use the icon? which folder i can copy ?

just put them in the windows folder of your mobile (for example with the windows phone device manager) and apply them with the new advanced config tool.
@drkfngthdragnlrd Maybe you can put this in the first post

Thanks very much!!

Another question,why can not choose the people,phone,message .etc. when i change the icon.

Ok... No new thread
Sinse we can make this a Collection thread then ...
This is the first set of the icons that i will make for use in tiles.
If i find some time i will make another set...if you want any specific one
please let ne know..

Thx very much for your icons pack!
Have you an idea to find app Phone to change this to AppTile_phone.png
I can find with advanced tools 1.2..?
:-(

For now, those built in Hubs that have Live Tiles have been disabled by the Advanced Config developer. If you change those icons, you'd loose the Live Tile functionality.

The answer from drkfngthdragnlrd is correct ...for now they are disable...
I made some of them because this will change in next versions...
For the time all the live tiles app its good practice to not change the tile picture...

those icons look nice but they are a terrible design for metro. too much chrome. tile icons should be basic

My idea of what WP7 should of looked like (Photoshopped, not real);

drkfngthdragnlrd said:
That's your opinion, personally i don't like the simplistic look. I like eye candy, which is why i release them for other who like eye candy. Instead of criticizing my work, why not make your own & post them here.

It's a fact that your design goes against the metro theme. There's a reason why MS didn't make anything look like that.
my opinion is that metro is better but it's good that you're making them for those of you who don't like metro and want eye candy. It does look good though

Modified Icons for Kaiser Home Plugin

Hello all,
You may have seen my earlier thread with the modified color clock digits for the HTC Home Plugin. Well, I just can't leave well enough alone! This started off as JUVS color version of the Kaiser Home Plugin. I took some of the icons from JUVS version and some from Schaps. Then I made the 'unselected' ones dark and lit up the selected one with a bright spotlight. I also changed the house colors a bit and turned it to face the other side. Just didn't seem right with a blue roof . I like it better now and I hope you do too, see screenshots attached.
To install:
First install JUVS Kaiser Home Plugin, color version, see the CAB file later in this thread. Then go in and make sure the plugin is unchecked in Settings, Today, Items. Make a backup of the HH_FW*.* and HH_HOME*.* files in your Windows folder for safe keeping. Then copy the contents of the ZIP file attached to the Windows folder on your device (not the zip itself, extract the contents) replacing the same-named files. Reselect the plugin and take it for a spin. Love it? Good! Hate it? Restore the original set of icons and associated files or reinstall.
By the way, the colored clock digits I made for the original HTC plugin work perfectly here too. Copy them over the same way if you like. You can find them in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314510
And, that reminds me, I figured out the bezel issue affecting some of the icons in the files I put out for the original HTC Home Plugin. For those who were bugged by that issue I am attaching a bezel fix ZIP file that will correct the issue and leave a nice transparent icon background in keeping with the them of that set of files. You could use this fix on this Kaiser version as well and it will remove the spotlight from the selected item without affecting the colors and brightness/darkness differentiating selected and unselected. You just have to see it to see if you like it.
Is this for Hermes or Kaiser? This is posted in the Hermes WM6 forum.
Yes!
This applies for both actually, but I'm using it on a HERMES, running the Kaiser HTC Home Plugin. See the 5 tabs instead of 3? If you want it, look for JUVS version in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316107
gmgonzal, great work again! Thanks!!!
i'm trying to copy over the files in vista but i can't seem to... do i need to do this via the phone?
nevermind, stupid vista won't let you extract from an explorer view of a zip file
so the spotlight for each tab seems to show the old black/white icon when it is selected... going to try to recopy the files again.
That's because...

This is meant as a mod for the JUVS color version of the Kaiser Home Plugin. It brings the color icons that you are missing. You should install that first, then copy these icons over. I'm including the CAB file here in case others need it also...
do you know if this has the fixes included in the version posted on pg 6 of the original thread? thanks!
works well now. was wondering if you could do the spotlight with a transparent backgd instead of the gray? looks better with the default ATT them. thanks!
Here you go

I guess I could , I wanted to do that next myself, it takes more effort to clean up the graphics for that. Check back...
This is great, thanks! Removing the bevel was part of the things I wnated to change about this plugin. What I would really love to be able to do now is completely remove the useless highlight that appears over the icons when they are selected - is this possible?
edit: just to be clear from the post above ... the highlight I mean is not contained in the images, I mean the OS highlight that appears over the images themselves when selected.
Also, for me personally, it would be great to be able to change the colour of the font used - if I change the colour of the clock images, then the font stay white which looks inconsistent to my fussy brain!
Thanks for any help with the highlight thing though.
good work, works well ! thank you!
I know what you mean

That highlight pi$$es me off too, what I always wanted to do was have the icons in greyscale and then make them bright color when selected, with no highlight around them. But that highlight seems to be built into the code. As far as the text color, Zoharbl said in my previous thread that you can change the text color for each Today screen item with a program called Today Agenda, but I haven't tried it to see if it works on the text on the top of the HTC Plugin. Here's a link if you want to try it:

CHECK OUT NEW WEATHER APP & THREAD! (This Thread Retired) ODSHOWeather.CAB (8-07-08)

CHECK OUT NEW WEATHER APP & THREAD! (This Thread Retired) ODSHOWeather.CAB (8-07-08)
**Note**Thnx to Rafer,NRG/Z28,Pudgedaddy, Luckybandit!!!
WE HAVE A NEW WEATHER APP!!!! IT IS BETTER AND MORE EFFICIENT
CHECK OUT THE NEW THREAD!!!
Updated: (7-08-2008) ODSHOWeather v1.0.2b (8:37 p.m.)
Please read all instructions before posting. Thanks.
Showaco, I are happy to bring you what will be one of the final installments of the weather panel. I have worked on testing this thing for a while. The new addition is the radar page to the forecast panel. This includes a new app that is included in the cab. It's called Weather Radar. It is located as your right soft key link. Just click it from your phone to set it up. This is a separate app that runs in our panel, but is not required to use the panel at all. I just included this, because it is frickin' sweet. Just input your location and it shows an updated radar image for your area that is updated by the NOAA every 6 minutes. Trust me, if you work outside for a living, this is a godsend.
Like I said, this weather radar app is not part of our weather update or any panels display properties or anything, it is simply a link to a separate (yet related) app. That's all.
With that being said. This radar page is pretty sweet. Follow the instructions below to make sure your clock weather, forecast panel, AND radar are setup properly, before you use this. Hope you enjoy, there are 4 wavs for you to check out as updated voice messages. There are 4 panel borders that you could display. You have an option for now forecast panel (lite version) and an option to display a forecast panel (full version).
Look at the 3rd url below, in it is a zip that you can use to replace your digits in your clock panel. The digits1 are the originals, the digits 2 are the HTC Diamond Font numbers. If you are curious as to what they look like, just search HTC Diamond. Luckybandit posted these, so thanks to him. In order to have these display, just rename either folder to digits and drop it in your \Program Files\Outerdepth\KPWeather folder. They will overwrite the ones you have, but don't worry, I have supplied you with both. They will not completely show up until the forecast panel update has run, so set your fupdate value to 1 in your reg, and then run the update. The location in your reg is HKLM Software\Outerdepth\KPWeather.
Lastly, we do have a banner, so you can also edit your banner's display text. It is located in the options menu as well. It will be displayed in the scrolling texts in your clock panel. ENJOY!!!!!
CHECK OUT SHOWACO'S POST #2!!!!!
Instructions:
1. Download cab from link below.
2. Copy cab to smartphone. Using explorer or Total Commander, click on the
cab. It will install. If you have downloaded the cab before, don't
worry about uninstalling it, it will do all the work itself. That's it. All installations are done.
3. Go to your weather options and set them up. Do all of the options, if you want or expect all of the features to work!!
4. Run Weather Update. It will write your forecast panel and radar. That's it.

Here's the original 320x240 sliding panel cpr file for anyone who needs it to remove cclock weather and fat panels.
Looks nice! I'll have to try it out soon.
Looks great
The thumbnails look great. I have a couple of questions:
1. Looks like you are using the fat panels. Is it possible to use just a fat panel for this, and slim panels for the rest of the panels?
2. Will you be posting a cab anytime soon that automates the installation?
Thanks.
Great job
Can't wait to load your app on my Excalibur and try it out but I am at work and need to wait until I get home since you do not have a cab file.
Looks great but !!!! Even though I have added quite a few things to my phone your installation instructions are beyond my knowledge.
Step #4? More explanation needed. Are these registry files. Are they exe files? Where do I copy them and how do I run them.
Also, one other thing that I would like you to include. When you include the new option of radar, can we choose our own radar. The local TV station has an great radar screen for mobile phones that I would like to use.
Thank for all your work,
Tim

1. In sliding panels, as of now, all panels must be same size, no exceptions. But if there is interest, it is possible to kinda create the illusion of different size panels using panel backgrounds.
2. We hope to have cab up in a few days.

To run the reg files, you need to use a reg editor, I use resco explorer which does a great job but there are others.
As for as radar, It is possible to use custom radar, but that isn't the way we were headed right now. But we will consider it.
thats sweet.....its goin on mine as soon as I get home
The one thing I might like to add it that if you have any issues after uninstalling NRG's Chome Weather , where it gives a whie screen with an error unable to find weather.exe it's because it's still stuck in your notifications queue. Run Sktools and locate your notifications and find the offending notification and check it, then remove it. This will stop that error.
I'm only mentioning this in this thread as to warn others about this possible issue just avoid any confusion that by installing outerdepth's weather app, it does not cause this error.
Locked out of Messaging
After following your directions I am unable to acces messaging on my Dash and there is no weather. Please give more detail on step 4 on how to actually "Run" and reg file. Is it an import?
You're going to have to tell me where to edit the scrolling marquee stuff. I dont see where to customize it.
Nevermind: I found it.... for anyone who wants to know, you have to edit the KPWeather.mscr file in notepad or other text editing software and locate the txt8 value about a little past half way down the page and edit it. then overwite other original .mscr
Update: Where would i go to edit the Condensed Text in the forecast panel. I want to read something else besides CWeatherODSP
Nevermind on update: I figured out how to change the condensed text in forecast panel too.... i'm such an idiot sometimes... was an easy find.

For non weather related additions to text loop, it can be easily added in the loop.mscr as a regwritestring added to bottom of current list.

It would be nice to add that as an option in the weather options .mscr.... other folks may not be saavy enough to use a text editor. It would kinda of "idiot proof' that function
Awesome App
Congrats Outer & Showaco. It's a great app & it works flawlessly. Only suggestion I have is if it's possible to make this for normal panels (I use normal, not slim). I know it's very difficult to put that much of information on this size (and I must say the clock panel looks AWESOME) but my other panels look really fat with too large fonts.
Anyway it's just a suggestion. The app is really cool and I have to say thank you for all your hard work
Cheers
Hey Outerdepth, this is awesome. We're finally going away from CTestUIPlugin. However, after copying my weather script line for line, even down to the directory names and graphics used... I would at least appreciated a little statement that this is all possible because you're using my application But hey....

Will be done later tonight, thanks for the input. We will add a user text line that can be edited from options panel.
You may also want to edit the Title on the consensedtitle panel. It currently reads: CWeatherODSP .... which to me doesn't seem to descriptive. I personally changed it to read "7-Day Weather Extended Forecast". that seems a little more descriptive to me. Of course you can do whatever you want to it, but using the title i use or some other variation of what i use may be a little more descriptive.
Slim Panels

If possible, I would like the slim panels. I hope that there are others who would want it enough to motivate you to create the illusion you are talking about. Thanks, and waiting for the cab...
Yeah! A Real Weather App
Great job guys and will be even better when you add the "Doppler Radar" with automatic updates. Please use the newly released "Doppler Radar" for smartphones and pocketPC devices, again guys, this is a super awesome job.................!

Chome Configurator Panel Icons Tutorial

Hello xda's, altough I'm not that technically savvy, I managed to learn how to create and manage icons to use in creating Chome Configs panels. Thanks to some xda members like Stylez and Nrg for their help so here it goes, and please correct me if I'm wrong.
Find your icon, I like using the icons from www.iconspedia.com, their icons are hardcore and of course hi-res.
The icon size is 22x22 with the highest dpi you can manage. To resize the icons I use Paint.Net(Stlyez ) this program is so ridiculously simple its not even funny, just play with it for a minute and you'll have your icon outputted in no time at all.
Icon Name (like the say, "don't know why it is, it just is" lol)
To have some common factor I use the name Chome in my icons that will be used in my panels ie.
chome_gps_sat_active.png
chome_gps_desat_inactive.png
or you can just name it - icon_sat_active.png and icon_desat_inactive.png but again notice the common factor
I don't know why its sat_active.png and desat_inactive.png but all the icons have to end in that format. Once you have your icons launch Chome Config and create your panel ie. Gps, once you see it go inside and create your 1st page, at the top it says:
Panel Icons:
here you'll follow the aforementioned format including the path of the icons like so:
\Windows\chome_gps_sat_active.png;\Windows\chome_gps_desat_inactive.pg
I highlighted the ";" so you don't forget, if you mess up the icon name or path, you'll end up seeing a red icon with an "x" in the middle, alerting you that something is wrong
The active icon is the icon that will show up when you select that panel and the inactive icon is the icon that will show up when you are not in that panel. If you put the both icons the same, then common sense dictates that the panel will use only one icon for inactive and active views, a lot folks like to have inactive and active icons just to show a little contrast but the choice is strictly yours, and that's why I think this is such a great piece of software, its so configurable yet simple to use once you get the basics. Below are a couple of my icons I used for my Gps panel that holds the following apps: Garmin, Google Maps, Live Search. The little color icon is my active and the bw is my inactive and the original, so you're able to compare the scaled down versions
Well I hope this helps someone and again if some of the more technical members can add some more knowledge, please comment
Good post man, looks like it took some time to do this... So lets keep this post up in order for people to see it and not start new threads asking questions on this topic...
Re: Setting Up Panels
To carry on the subject here is how to set up your CMYApplication the same goes for all panels.
Here is what it look like:
I have set up Opera Mobile
The Red arrow is the name of panel when condensed "not on the panel"
The Blue is the name shown on the top of panel when expanded
The Green is the location of the .exe "program want to open"
The Purple is the location of the picture .png "i place mine on storage card in a folder called PNG"
You may find that page 2 doesn't show as i think there is a bug i have had it on both ROMs hide the page and make a new one to get 20 pages for 20 programs
Hope this helps.
Excellent guys !

But this will show you how to make your own panels
Hope it helps.

I try my best lol just on the up to my Tube, then will post link saves people having to download shame that can embed vids on here, or can we?
I did some searching around, but I couldn't find an answer. Has anyone indexed these panel icons, and the reference numbers for the default? I'm trying to find a panel icon for the myfaves in black and white, so that I can add it to my quick dialer panel. Any thoughts?

Nice work I somehow managed to not comment a long while back. I figured some of this out thru trial and error but some of the tutorial actually helps me tinker even more if I want too. It just sucks that one must redo all of it again with a simple flash...

There must be more we can do through walk through edit.cpr? I got a how to change the panel with PE which i could upload but maybe we need a thread deicated to it all?
Blackjack2 you could change the title to something else like Video & Picture tutorials?
Just a thought...
I feel dumb but is there any docs on how to use Chome I cannot seem to figure it out and I don't want to mess anything up.
Thanks!
You're looking at one buddy, just ask and we'll tell you.
This was very helpful, as I was sort of lost. I had the right idea, but some things weren't totally right until the picture tutorial that stylez put together. Thanks so much.
Great job to both of you.
I added a link to this thread in the original CHome Configurator thread.
Opera on panel
Hello,
Ive been trying to add favorites from opera to a panel, is there a tutorial somewhere how to do this ?
I actually have not been able to add Opera mini to a panel but I think this is how I installed Opera mini..I went to mini.opera.com and installed it but to access the application I have to go to start/java/launch opera.. I can find opera in the application list if I use the template for apps in ChromeConfig and it does add it to a panel it just doesnt work lol
So if anyone knows how to get either of those to work would be awesome.
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys,
Thanks a lot for your tutorials but I am still not able to get my icons to show up. The icons on the top bar(_sat_active.png and _desat_inactive.png) show up just fine but it is the individual icons that dont show. This is the case for both my applications as well as my contacts. Any suggestions?

Great theme and I have it, too, but if you never tried it note that you loose the carousel with this theme - just for the record. And some of the widgets have French titles.

I used google toolbar translate. You have to register with the website and then you can download.
As for the fact that it removes the carosel, it's well worth it.
I recommend it warmly.

Hi, I'm using this theme for the first time and I'm having problems with opening sms messages. I get signs for recieving the texts but when I go into the messages page I can't open them at all.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to recify this,

I really want to use this theme but still not work after installing everything..
How to remove some pages/screens, Dont need all 7?
I have a question regarding the number of screens, Can i change it? I dont need that menu menues, and over half of them are left empty. Can I remove the empty ones?
I also miss favorite contacts buttun/window, How can i get that?
Thaks alot for any tips!
Favourite contacts buttos is still present: Add Widget -> Diver Sence -> ContactsFav.
And AFAIK there is no possibility to change number of screens...
i dont get any word at this site.
Could anyone upload it to rapidshare and post here link?
btw there is english support for this?
My PC died
Hey everyone,
My PC died and I wanna download this via mobile...
But Mobilecustom doesnt work right with mobile downloads...
I asked the maker and he said that i could see if someone else could upload it to their 4Shared or megaupload or something and grab it from them, it would be okay.
It is not okay to post a download, but someone could email me link...so the mass public wouldnt get it...
please PM me if u can help!
For those having problems installing it, make sure that:
1) You are using SPB Mobile Shell 3.x.x
2) You have installed the Message2Reg.cab so that you can use the SMS widget
3) All else fails, reinstall SPB MS3
Personally, I think this theme is fantastic, although I would like to somehow link every page back to the home page with a button somehow...since you sometimes have to swipe three or four times before you get back to the home page.
Other complaints are:
1) No carousel...i miss the eye-candy =P
2) Some widgets are in french, although that's easy to live with and also makes you seem more sophisticated to your friends
3) You cannot change the Professional page...it is now a redundant page that only shows the time and battery meter - I would prefer to have my agenda or calendar there
4) You cannot use the widgets unless you use the full theme...unless there is some "widget capture" program that I have missed
Otherwise, it's a fantastic theme! Definitely worth it and it is good for novelty if nothing else. Somebody actually asked me if I thought that the Android OS was good!...until I told him it was WinMo and he was like " no way!"
Any idea of how to change the launcher button to fav-contacts?
How do i change the "launcher" button to a contacts button? Saw a screenshot in this forum on page 17 that someone had done it.
Dont se the point of having a big button for luncher menu on every screen?
I cant seem to make it fullscreen.. i would like to have the ugly top bar gone?? is this possible?
I could definitely do with a list of widgets, and images to go with them. There's about 20 clocks, and dozens of message widgets. It's really hard to customise it not knowing what's what.
[hint hint, if anyone wants to do this they would be being very useful]
pretty nice theme thnks
Sence Revolution
Great theme running on my Raphael alongside Blue Eye TF3D theme. Just need to change background of Sence: I know how to delete background file etc, but do not understand 16bit bmp. files?? Photoshop offers me a choice of 8bit or 32 bit. Can anyone help me choose the correct res ?

[customize] your HTC Hub Live Tile

HI. First off all i have to tell you that my english is terrible. Sorry for that.
I have made the decision to edit my HTC Hub Live Tile, because i did'nt like the HTC Logo at the Tile and more the 4 little app-icons.
I have found the registry entry "hkey_local_machine/software/htc/htc_hub/token".
There are be 4 values named feature 1,2,3,4. I have replaced any .png value with "NO_SUCH_FILE" and pressed "OK". But every time i did this, the Value changed back to his original state. Can someone tell me whats my mistake?
The next thing is to erase the HTC Logo from all the 44 pngs. I think it should be not really a problem for someone with the know how. I have tried it and it looks... let us say dilettantish.
So if someone could help me please... and sorry again for my broken english.
First part is done... xD Got the live tile now without the "tokens"

can you please upload your xap file?
It's not a xap. It's only a transparent png. I wasn't able to modify the regiytry because the htc hub app seems to reset the registry everytime the app refresh itselfs.
Thats why i searched the 4 Tokens and overwrote them with the transparent pngs.

Hi Der Fuzzy
OK found the application to overwrite
Sorry. At the moment i'm not able to post the directory to the app... i must hardreset my device... to much messed arround with the registry.
Must be this path, or am i wrong?
\Applications\Install\1A0EE8C2-48B1-DF11-8A2F-00237DE2DB9E\Install\Res\Generic\images \

thanks.
Did you get the homescreen backround worked? i have tried 100 registryentries but i still wont get it.
\Applications\Install\1A0EE8C2-48B1-DF11-8A2F-00237DE2DB9E\Install\Res\Generic\images\token\
Edit the attached images.
Note: The Number Images in that directory are the Weather Temperature in the Live Tile.
EDIT: Oh no, we need a root access to do this. The files must be hidden or you just can't copy them out to edit yet. From what I've been told, the UI is supposed to be XMl based like CHome's CPR's in WM 6.5, but can't find the files anywhere.
As for the HTC, someone posted this already.
yeah... but it looks like my dilettantish try to erase the "HTC" by myself. A friend of mine is still working on it.
Wtf? Your IE Tile is themed, too.
Looks like its just a question of time to customize WP7.
The HD2 Community is on the right way...

You need Advanced Configuration Tool v 1.2.0.0 by Schaps to change icons. You can't change icons for tiles with live tile content as that'd make you loose Live Tile functionality, at least for now. So Schaps disabled those hubs/apps.
See my Icon thread.
You are great. Why did you open a thread especially about customize your WP7? You have so many threads around here. It could be very usefull.
Most of my work was for WM, I did a lot of work in CHome/Titanium. I was the one who found the GUID for custom plugins, which paved the way to all those plugins like ATContacts, Showaco's Weather Panel, etc, etc. Right now, I have only found 3 hacks/customizations. Maybe once I have more, Ill link it all. For now, people can just look at my profile to find my threads.

Hi Der Fuzzy
Yes that fixed the icons showing, but still have the words showing on the main screen (Stocks and Need for Speed.)
How do I get these off?
Thanks
FPM
Working!
Hey everyone,
I managed to get the HTC hub tile without apps icons nor HTC logo,
I 'm now testing the live update as soon as I get results, I will give you feedbacks + some extra files.
Note that the 4 files replaced in isolated store folder ain't enough, there are few files that need to be replaced also.
I only used the Windows Mobile device manager software with its file Explorer tab( simple copy & paste)

Cool Gsidhom
Hope you can supply the completed xap? If not then will overwrite my own ones when you supply the files
FPM
Confirmed working with LIVE TILE
It's a simple copy paste procedure used only through "Windows Phone device center"
Very Simple but do it carefully to avoid deleting extra files.
Use the "read me.txt" file in the attachment to help in modification.
you MUST Unpin the HTC hub Tile from Homescreen before modification.
