You're my boy blue!!!

Man, here you are again with the icons, I'm excited! I just gave my Touch the Diamond overhaul today.

My suggestion on the style would be to either keep it the way you have (I personally use the grayscale effect in UL on the icon touch) or have the icon image in grayscale with the Diamond green font, I believe it's an emerald color.
[Windows Mobile Themes] TweakMan:
WIcKED

I agree. I would like to see the grey scale my self. I'm starting the diamond express on my touch as we speak. Your the man blue. Oh by the way, thanks for all the support you've showed in the General Questions thread. Keep up the good work.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
thanks for your feedback.

okay here is another test.

But i think we need some color, but text or picture ? Both would be too much.
[Windows Mobile Themes] TweakMan:
ChANGED My MinD

Actually , I changed my mind. I just started gettin some of the home screens on my touch, and I would actually much rather use the Opera in red. I would really like to see both. You couldn't really get it perfect unless you could mix it up with the grey scale and the color's.
[Windows Mobile Themes] TheChampJT:
How about instead of the gray outline, use the green, with the colored icon and black font?
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
mmh, after some sleeping, i thing the first thought is often the best, i will make some icons for testing with grey text and colored symbols and try them also in vga

question: what iconsize do you need for vga , 64 x 64 ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] NNagendran:
definitely both vga and qvga.

My perfect icons would have

1. Color variants: Black and White

2. Highlight/Border color: Green for White, White/Gray for Black

3. No Text, Only Images

4. Images in Gray/Black/White (I prefer un-colored)

Thanks mate.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
as some of you may know i was making about 340 icons for my last set. so making this new one with black and white background would be too much for one man, because this will last weeks or months.

so i will do the white background because i like this clean white style that is so different to all this black styles here in the community.

but i will do more tests and again some questions:

1 do you need the icons also highlighted and for what app ??

2 what size do you need for vga ??
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:

I have a few requests if possible:

netfront, active sync, spb backup, slingplayer and ewallet. Also, if you could possibly post the icons in .ico format for ultimate launch. Thanks in advance, your icons always rock!
[Windows Mobile Themes] TheChampJT:
Blue, always making my PPC eye candy. Love the work man! I would say use the same apps from the prev set.

@m_kranzler11: blue listed the site to download software to convert to .ico

Love the "AC/DC" on the sounds icon! Cause I'm back in black..

Diamond Icons in .ico for UltimateLaunch

Here is the first set in .ico.

Enjoy!

And of course, thanks to blue!
[Windows Mobile Themes] wittanny:
Icons are far too small for Ultimatelaunch. Can you make it 48x48?
[Windows Mobile Themes] robpet2:
great work on the icons
[Windows Mobile Themes] TheChampJT:
They are in 48x48, .ico images have different size sets included in one, did you adjust the size in UL?

Trust me they work, there on my Touch right now.
[Windows Mobile Themes] wittanny:
Sorry, just looked from thumbnails. Great work!!

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] NNagendran:
any possibility of having the icons without text?
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
i'm sorry but no chance, thats the look i like most and i dont have the time doing so many icons also in different styles.

more icons will come, this is a first set so that you can use most of your apps.

also working on german text icons.

thanks to champ for making icos out of them.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nani:
Thanks ! Looks great ;-)
[Windows Mobile Themes] MrDSL:
Any chance of getting some icons for

Lock

WM5torage

Myspace

Backup

HTC Album

MMS

Theres always one for Email and SMS how about one for MMS also?

thanks awesome icons..
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluber:
*Thumps Up* for your new Collection

i am a great "white" fan, and the icons you made so far are almost already all i use on regular bases. i hope i am not offending if i add some request that would be cool!?

additionally to the "vibrate" i would like to have an "Mute" and one for normal "sound". one for "Flightmode" and a "car-profile" icon would be great.

other than i can only thing of a "Phone" icon that can be missused for missed calls or as shortcut to phone history and one for "www" icon to mark a global internet application tap :-)
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
okay, some downloads ;)

i will do more icons in the evening, but when making such a set its neccessary to have first all basic icons (like contacts) and then i will do something like "pocketcm", sound profils and special apps like wm5torage..., kaiser tweaks and so on.

For some apps i have to make completly new (like my "rotate") Icons/graphics. For example wm5torage has no Icon that can be used by me, so some of this apps will last longer than others.

but post here what you need, i read it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
UPDATE SEE FIRST POST 79 Icons
[Windows Mobile Themes] lsherif:
Great Icons

Might be a silly question, but being new, how do i replace these lovely icons with the existing ones in my HTC Touch ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] kuja:
hi, i really love your icons, ive been searching the whole day for a way to change the shorcuts icons but, its not that i havent found how, its just i dont know if thats possible, i used forum search, google, tried many programs... but nothing, and i really wanna use them :o
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
no prob.

this icons are for launchers or other software you find here at xda devs or softeware you can buy. if you have one of this apps look in that thread how to change icons.

you can´t replace the orginal icons of htc with this but you can use it for ultimate launch, ifonz, mobileshell, htc home and so on.

maybe one of the users can post here a screenshot for him ? im allways interested what you guys do with the icons :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] kuja:
thats what i thought, just for external programs, its just that i dont like that kind of programs and i imagined icons in programs in start menu, and also on htc home launcher...:( :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] kuja:
what do u think about this? i dont understant it well, but maybe its possible

http://www.ppcsg.com/lofiversion/index.php/t80127.html
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
you are at xda devs and dont like external software ? Funny :D

but you can use this Icons for HTC Home ! (a external software from HTC ;))

just looked at your link, maybe its possible, but seems to be difficult. YOu must xcange dlls. Wouldnt do that. And my Icons are to big for the startmenu, even if you make them smaller.
[Windows Mobile Themes] kuja:
but how can i used your icons with htc home? you can onlu choose programs and it takes the program icon... :confused:

and do you know a program called sk shortcut manager? it lets you change program icons, but only choosing from a kind of dll packs, u know hot to making a pack like that with yours? that would open maaaaany possibilities
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
install this freeware app for changing htc home:

http://electrogeek.com/blog/2008/04/10/free-htc-home-customizer-for-wm6/

If you need help search here for htc home or home customizer.

most users here use other launchers/GUis for their mobile phone and not the startmenu or the windows mobile programfolder, so there is no need for them(and me) of changing dlls.

maybe this are questions for the noob thread ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] kuja:
lol, i dont understand why people with many messages like to say noob and noob and noob and

noob, a few messages doesnt mean noobish ;)

pd: i tried most of that programs that you say and i know what is hhc, anyway, thanks 4 the help (and 4 the icons of course)
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
another update, see first post. Now 96 icons also in .ico.
[Windows Mobile Themes] TheChampJT:

[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:

[Windows Mobile Themes] swain69:
HI,

I have a VGA device and downloaded both the VGA and QVGA icons. The VGA icons (png) cannot be accessed in UL. Also for the QVGA, I have changed them to 48 (Normal) and 48 (Pushed), but they still look really tiny.

I know I must be doing something. Any suggestions?
[Windows Mobile Themes] MrDSL:
UL will only use .ico files..
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
"Problem": UL needs ico format but my icos are only 48 Pixel, so:

1. use my 64x64 pixel pngs

2. search for freeware "icofx" and install it on you PC.

3. Put any icon u want to use from my icon-folder in the window of "icofx". A dialogue appears, on the bottom you now choose userdefined format: 64 x 64 pixel (or maybe a little bit bigger, i dont know because i dont have vga)

4. save this to a new folder and ready is you ico.

this goes really fast but you must do that for every Icon you want to use.
[Windows Mobile Themes] someguy917:
Request

Could you make a regular phone icon. I love the set but I am tired of using your phone icon from the glass icon set. Or maybe just tell me if I missed it, UL wont let you actually see the icons before you use them.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
i will do that the next two days. and some more icons. i m sorry, i was a little bit busy with other graphics.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
okay, here are now 147 icons in first post.

i have done some new for a wile and cant remember what are new :D but im sure i havent postet the phone icon so here is a preview.
[Windows Mobile Themes] someguy917:
Amazing. That is just what I need, now I can use all these icons in my ultimate launch.
[Windows Mobile Themes] HostileJava:
These icons are awsome, but can I make a few requests?

Internet Connection Sharing or ICS, Remote Desktop or RDP, Wififofum, Wifimerouter, Tetris, Solitaire, Chess, NES, Task Manager, and Volume.

Ok that's a big request, but I suck at graphics, these look awsome, and I need these few more to make everything match :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluemetalaxe:
okay i found time for this update, all icons are done, but dont know what wifimerouter is or what kind of software or what it does so i can´t create a icon.

In the png Folder is my white and dark BLANK background, so everone can create more Icons. The Font i use is "Trebuchet MS", RGB: 32, antialiasing

Greetings
[Windows Mobile Themes] HostileJava:
I actually spelled it wrong, I reread the post after you posted it's WMWifiRouter, and here's a link to the thread on it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=357152

These look great BTW, thank you very much. The only thing I think you may have confused is the Todo List and the Task manager? Unless you meant for it to look like that, but when I said task manager I meant the program that manages running programs and process's. Here's a link to what icons for it usually look like.

Also attached is a Diamond-ish skin for SPB Weather and a very crude skin for SPB Pocket Plus that I threw together real quick.

Thanks for the icons & inspiration :)

[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] kekspups:
Good day!

I recently bought a XZ1 and I am trying to read myself into how to root this phone but I feel like most of these things are explained very hard to understand. For example, I have read about how the the camera wont work if the DRM keys get deleted.

So I tried to install the eXistenZ Pie ROM that works on Stock because the install instructions seemed easy to follow. The first issue i have had was with flashing firmware with Newflasher right at the beginning. Everytime I got into the flash mode the device manager showed me the phone as android with a exclamation mark so I tried to install the drivers manually. That worked but newsflasher doesent. I get the following error:

Everything is just so complicated to me and I have really spent a lot of time trying to figure things out but so much just doesent make sense to me, like which rooting instructions are even still uptodate and which are not.

Could someone please explain to me in a non complicated way for a stupid person like me how to root this phone? or atleast link me a instruction that does that? Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TrainPhones_6:
One of our relatives gave us a Samsung S7 Edge Sprint from the US. We had it "unlocked" at a local third party cell repair shop (pretty common in our country) and so far, it can receive and send text messages using our local sim cards. The problem is it cannot connect to LTE or even 4G using Mobile Data. It still boots the Sprint during restart and I cannot access Network Operators at Connection settings. For reference, I keep testing it using Globe Prepaid and Sun Prepaid sim cards.

One site says use the official method of calling Sprint itself but we don't have the original SIM card anymore. So I dunno if rooting even solves the problem or if I should still attempt to unlock it again
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
There's nothing you can do. The Sprint version doesn't have a 4G GSM antenna. It uses a CDMA antenna instead for LTE. None of the carriers in the Philippines support CDMA. It's actually not used much outside of USA and Canada. Only China and some Latin American countries use it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] sharpz811:
Just as the title says I'm just asking those of you who are rooted and a quick brief explanation of why? Even those not rooted I would also encourage to Express your reasonings.

Personally I'm not rooted right now because I don't have TWRP and Google pay is iffy at the moment but I would love to root for substratum, adaway, and Viper sound mods.

Thanks guys.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] wrongway213:
Google Pay works with a simple fix in Termux app - no issues with it unless you use EdXposed.

I'm rooted for modding, theming, ability to install custom kernel, Button Mapper capabilities, Swift Backup, ability to fix device ambient EQ, ability to mod Active Edge, ability to use Lawnchair with QuickStep recents. mod accent colors to cool neon colors, iYTPB YouTube mod.. Substratum (not using currently but will be soon), ability to hide navbar.. the list goes on.

I'm rooted because this is a Google device with open source code and active development so modding and customizing my device is easy, fun, and I am able to see the changes being made without the blind guesswork and hackery involved in trying to develop for so many half-baked source release devices.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] pdfruth:
rooted so I can use;

- AdAway

- ViPER4Android

- EdXposed

As previously mentioned, Gpay is working fine.

And you don't "need" TWRP to root the P4XL.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] sharpz811:
Thanks for your input guys but I'm a little confused through googling I see a magisk module that supposedly does all the necessary scripting in the background and then like mentioned here I see manually editing via termux. So I'm just wondering what is the exact procedure or is there a thread I can't seem to find with the exact instructions?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] wrongway213:
I recommend this Termux fix, believe spaceman860 from DU is the first I saw using this but could be wrong, copying this from Telegram

Gpay fix v2

1. Install Termux app and open the app

2. Type pkg install sqlite hit enter and let it install.

3. Type su hit enter

4. Copy and paste this then hit enter

am force-stop /data/data/com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel && chmod 777 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db && /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db "update main set c='0' where a like '%attest%';" && chmod 444 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db

5. Reboot

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] sic0048:
I'm rocking a P3xl, but I rooted for...

Advanced Charging Control module - allows me to control how the battery is charged - (ie lower the max charge to 80% and other things that should increase overall battery life)

Active Edge Mod (mostly standard settings, but can squeeze to take a picture when the camera is open instead of having to press the shutter button on the screen. This really helps when trying to hold the phone with one hand).

Viper4Android

AdAway

YouTube Vanced

ExperimentalX kernel - great kernel and it has high brightness mode (HBM) support too. (Like the Pixel 4 series, the 3a series has a max brightness that is actually lower than the screen is capable of. HBM overrides this and truly maxes the brightness. It really helps when using the phone outside in bright sunlight).

With the Pixel 4 series, I think being able to map the Soli gestures for other things might be very interesting too.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
They don't call it the bleeding edge for nothing and something had to come first; there would never be support without need and there is no need until someone creates it. Realistically Google has used their power over the ecosystem to require support and it's going to be ubiquitous in the near future. For now, some of us have to bleed a little bit...
