Here are some Start Icon's for you guys. Refer to the first page on how to create your own. You can use a free program called IcoFx for converting or editing icon's

This is the folder called Ico.zip

This is the folder called Vista Orbs

Hi, can someone please post the original shell for QVGA?

i messed mine up.

I couldn't back up my orignal shell because it was write protected.

can someone please post it?

thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] stylez:
If the file wont delete then with total commander rename the extention on the end .bak and soft reset, this should work as the file thats in the ROM will be replaced on startup.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Ray_jai:
yes, but i need the original to replace it.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] stylez:
Did you try what i said?

You don't need the original it loads from the ROM as you cannot delete files in the ROM... So the rename will make the ROM load the file.

From Post 1:

The reason i say rename is because you may not be able to delete, try to delete if not change the ending like i said on original post.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Ray_jai:
But i still need an orignal to work with.

i can't find the topic where i got a clean one.

the ones i find now, have modded vista folders and different loading icon.

the orignal in my rom is not clean.

i need a clean version.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] stylez:
So if you delete or rename you wont have the original please i'm trying to help you here, the original gets replaced.

The original will be the one that you had when you first flashed the phone or the original ROM you use without any modifications.

From Post 1:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Ray_jai:
Yes i know what you mean.

and I thank you for trying to help me.

but my rom's shell is not clean.

it already has mods done to it.

i want to revert back to a clean one.

I'm sorry if i'm not making sense.

thanks again.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] stylez:
Now ypu make sense your original post eas that you had edited and not kept back up, but you want one froan original ROM with no ediys as your original ROM has edits...

Probably this is not related to Start button, but it looks like it.

And it has on bottom bar (the one with sofkeys titles) and on it icons - the same size as Start icon, the same separator (white vertical line faded on both sides) ... but on other bar. Anyone who knows ho to do that - assign icons to softkey titles? It looks like WM-native solution.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] kaivish:
this error msg in the mssigner appears when the file that u are trying to sign is open or being used by another program. for example if u are using reshacker to edit the shellres file, after editing, just save the file and exit the reshacker completely, then try signing the file, it will work.

i also got these error msgs in the signing txt file and if u try to copy this file to the windows, it will mess up a lot of things (icons etc...).

if a file is not signed, windows will not accept , therefore not load the file.

always save the file and close all the apps using or opening the file before signing it so that it signs successfully.

hope this helps.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kaivish:
u will have to delete the shellres.96.dll.mui from the windows directory. but it will not allow u to do it as it is, since windows is using the file, it will be protected from delete (but not from renaming it:rolleyes::rolleyes:).

Rename the file to, for example, shellres.96.dll.mui.old.

then reset ur device and then go to the windows directory, delete the file and reset again and everything will be as it was before.

When you install the Taskbar cab it installs a Shellres.192.dll then when you copy the Shellres192.0409.mui to change your start icon this has not had the network icons changed in this file so they get overwritten by the mui file.

The way i solved this problem was to make a copy of the shellres.192.dll from the cab (with modifiyed icons) Modify it with start icon and waitcursor then save it as shellres192.409.mui job done (your new shellres192 now contains all the modded icons for taskbar and start icons/waitcursor) worked for Me see my sig

Here's the Maserati logo, Subaru logo and white Windows flag (again). I've throw in some previews this time, plus a screen cap of the Maserati logo in action.

Myke...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] twolf:
mysha, thank you for the white flag icon, but it looked a bit "crispy", probably because it was made for VGA. :D

I took the liberty of creating a new one for Qvga, already in a CAB with the registry settings and with both the icons for VGA and Qvga:

I created it from your VGA file, because I really liked the "waiting" icon bigger.

Also, it took me quite a while to find the correct way to create my own icons, there are some tutorials already here, but they are not complete, the best one was from another forum, here is my version of it:

How to create your own Start Icon

---------------------------------

0. Download the Start_icon_maker.zip attached in this post.

1. Create an icon in 41x36 if you have a VGA, for QVGA its 21x18 then save as .ico file in 32bits (I prefer to use Microangelo for this).

2. Copy you "shellres.192.dll.0409.mui" or "shellres.192.dll" (for VGA, if its Qvga the name is "shellres.96.dll.0409.mui") from the \Windows folder to your SD card then to your PC.

3. Unsign the file using Unsigner (for this just drag your file on top of this EXE and it will become unsigned).

4. Open it in Reshack and go to "Icon group/4609".

· Click on Action/Replace Icon/Open new file.

· Insert your new icon, click replace.

· Save your modified file (carefull no to confuse files, he creates a second file as the original backup).

5. Open Siggner.

· click Start sign Process (for MFS follow directions in the link)

· a window will pop-up with "Process finished!"

· You will see a that a text file has been create for your shellres on your desktop

· Open the text file, if you see "Warning: This file is signed, but not timestamped, Succeeded" you know the file was signed. If not you are doing something wrong and it will not work.

6. Install "Icone Demarrer.cab" if you have not done yet, its contains the necessary registry fixes for all this to work.

7. Copy your modified file to your SD card.

8. Open Resco explorer and overwrite your file into the Windows folder.

9. Soft Reset and enjoy.

A lot of these come in "shellres.96.dll.****.mui" format. I have an Alltel Touch Pro, so could I just rename the "shellres.96.dll.****.mui" to "shell.192.dll" and drag it into my Windows folder, or would what cause problems? The file size difference as well as the difference in image dimensions (21x18) are what's throwing me off. Any clarification would be appreciated, thanks!
