Hey... Is it possible to extract WM themes from a ROM?
Easierr if you could just ask someone here (using the ROM) to get the .tsk theme file for you.
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

It's the registry...
I've found many differences between 6.1 and 6.5
Still learning how the new OS works
trust me i know too well how tricky the registry in 6.5 is..i've had to reflash about 5times in 2 days because of the damn registry..im currently trying to find a way to change the font in titanium without having to modify the .cpr file..hw's ur surgery coming along

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 ?
Hello!
I am trying to create *.nbh file that will flash only splash screens and animation without touching my rom and anything else. Just splash screens.
I would like to hear from someone a brief instruction on how to go from bmp/png/gif files to short nbh file that will simply flash my splash screens and boot animation.
The reason I am asking is because some custom ROMS contain splashscreens that I don't like.
I am on Verizon and having XV6900. Current ROM is NFSFAN's V6 WM6.5
Thank you in advance.

Copy/paste from my answer to you at PPCGeeks LOL
Your not going to just flash boot splash screens - a flash is a flash and it will overwrite your ROM on your phone
two ways to do what your trying to do
1) cook your own ROM - integrating the splash you want to use (its built into most kitchens)
2) search for an app that will let you replace the splash screen on your phone - its there, I dont remember the name though but its there

Would you be so kind to remember what the name of the application that allowing to change splashscreens? I've seen nbimg.exe, but it only converts bmp to nb. That's not quite nbh.
If that's too difficult maybe you will help me out on how to cook my own ROM using nfsfan's rom as a base?
I downloaded PPC Kitchen and its kinda tedious program to figure out in intuitive manner. However I noticed there's possibility to add splashscreens. Which is good.

Theres lots of threads on Kitchen how-tos - I dont cook that often so I am not a reliable source for Kitchen info
As for NFSFANs ROM as a base, you better ask him first, last I know he like many others lock their ROMs
And I just dont remember it, if I get some time tonight I will do a search and see what I can find ...

Found two items that may help - of course its based on what and if a splash screen was cooked into the ROM to start with - seems it isnt needed to be
patchsplash.zip - not sure where it is just read up on it in a Diamond thread
and
In a registry editor, go to:
Changing the boot picture/sound:
HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCAnimation (startup animation and sound)
and
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Splash Screen (after the splash screen used)
Hope that helps
Detroit Doug
Yeah I changed mine in Advanced Config. Just take the .gif that you want to use and copy it to the /Windows folder. In System Tools> Advanced Config, go to HTC Animation
Change the "Startup GIF File" to point to your file. Hit done and let it soft reset. Upon reset, you'll see your new animation.
Okie doke! Thanks guys for your responses. Its clear with animation now. I'll dig a little bit more about actual splash screens.

Hey check out post number 5 in this thread, might be what you are looking for. I used it to flash just the the boot (first two) screens w/o flashing an entire new ROM.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=238065
I had some trouble with the image sizing, so let me know if it works for you.
This post has 2 questions.
Intro: I have a HTC HD flashed with Dutty's 3.7 XT ROM MSVC. I have used HD tweak as the tweak tool.(I am not sure this is relevant).
1) I downloaded Diamond tf3d config and installed it. I tried running it and get an error as soon as it starts. I tried the standard fixes including deleting the tweaks file as well as ensuring the "PressureThreshold" key is a DWORD. It makes no change, the program still gives an error. Could anyone suggest a fix.
2) I want to use tf3d config only for installation of .theme files. Is there an alternate app to do this? Also I know that i can just extract the .theme file as a zip file into the windows folder and restart touchflo for changes. However how do I remove the theme? I read somewhere that I can just delete the replaced files and the original files will be self re-generated. Is this true?
Please respond.
I Dont Believe That Diamond TF3D Config Functions Properly With New Manila Someone Feel Free To Correct Me If I Am Wrong
Well, now that you mention it I remember that tf3d config worked for the stock rom which has old manilla, and doesn't work with dutty's rom with new manilla which I am now using.
So if I cant use tf3d config does anyone know an alternate way of installing .theme files other than tf3d config.
Yeah I'm interested in alternative ways to install themes aswell, can't get TF3D Config to work at all
Yeah, I finally found out that tf3dconfig does not work with the new manilla. to install the theme, change the file extension of the theme file to zip, extract and replace the contents in the windows folder. Am not too sure how to uninstall.
All this information was found after 4 days of searches in xda. the search function on the site does seem to be strange as I ended up with the relevant result on the last page.
newbie here
sorry if i posted in the wrong place
