Nice

I'm trying to do something similar to this myself, because I don't like the icons used here, just personal preference, I still salute your work. However, I am having trouble getting the device to allow me to copy the DLL files from it in order to edit them. Are there some registry values I can change to make the device allow me? Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] hatredz:
wow. beautiful! tnx for this!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
No it is very hard to copy ROM files from Windows, the easies way is to dump your ROM, but you don't need to dump the ROM again since I already did it, just download my developers package and use these DLLs, edit them to your personal preferences

Here is the list of icons and respective files:

BITMAPS (24 bits, 32x32 size) from /windows/*.bmp

- BT On Mode.bmp

- BT Discoverable.bmp

- BT Stereo headset.bmp

- Stereo headset.bmp

- GPS-icon.bmp

PNG IMAGES

- welcomehead.192.png (the boot screen, 480x800) from /windows/*.bmp

MUI SYETEM FILES (all icons 32x32 32 bits)

notify.dll.0409.mui

Alarm/reminder notification bell = icon 2

DLL SYSTEM FILES (all icons 32x32 32 bits)

- CDMA_RSSI_PPC.dll

phone/data signal strength

- HTCVolumeControl.dll

Only necessary when Touch-IT Volume Control is installed

Speakers (on, vibrate, silent) = icons 1,2,3

- outres.192.dll

SMS msg = icon 2

EMAIL msg = icon 3

- phecanOver.dll

Sony phone canvas = all bitmaps

Speakers = icons 100,101,103 (overrided by HTCvolumecontrol.dll if present)

Active Sync USB/PC connection = icon 22

Active Sync off disconnect = icon 93

Missed call = icon 92

Roaming = icon 102

WiFi disconnected = icon 104

WiFi connected = icon 105

WIFI searching animation = icons 106-115

Battery = icons 23-43,116-195

- shellres.192.dll

Wait animation = bitmaps 4896-4911

Speakers = icons 16,17,18 (changed = 4,5,16 in my DLL)

Multialert = icon 30 (= 17 in my DLL)

Sync animation = icons 270-290

Start = icon 292

(I also edited BT icons 3,4,5, WiFi icons 49,50,51,370,371 and HSDPA 201 for testing purposes, but seem not to be necessary)

- tapres.192.dll

Roaming = bmp 22256

Voice msg = icon 15

Speakerphone = icon 16

- tshres.192.dll

WIFI new net detected = icon 1

Hope this helps more users to get down on it

Well, I did say that ... yes, the GPS icon displays briefly and occasionally in place (ie. instead of) of the phone bar icon when the GMS signal strength wavers. It does not display for me at all when the GPS is actually being used.

As far as I can tell, the GPS icon itself, when it shows, looks OK. It never displays for more than a second or two.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] emokulit:
i can't seem to uninstall this!

it says "was not completely removed"

help please
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] quetzalquatl:
@ianll8888

reading your post, seems to me that the GPS icon appear more like a "NO phone signal" icon replacement!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
Even when warned otherwise, package is completely deleted

Remember you need sdkcerts first

Reinstall sdkcerts, reinstall package again and then remove package

Works

EDIT: I observed that uninstalling after reinstalling from other version overrides the original system files, thus avoiding a full uninstall. SOLUTION on post 3
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] emokulit:
thanks!

i like your program.. the problem is.. when i installed spb pocket plus it created another battery icon.. i changed one to a clock but the other one doesn't change to your customized icon
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] quetzalquatl:
Try this: settings>system>spb pocket plus>uncheck "taskbar battery indicator". Soft reset.

Funny bluetooth icon

This is fantastic, except my bluetooth icon is distorted as shown in the screenshots linked below.

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/3QbARFeOzNn0gK1iu6TyHg?feat=directlink

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/_K2fjPY2LQhsoye_92OqYg?feat=directlink

It is the same for the icon for 'bluetooth visable' mode as well, all other icons are fine. I didn't have any previous icon packs installed and made sure to install the sdkcerts.cab prior to SEX1cons.

Am also running Jack's Lite 2.1 ROM if that makes a difference as well. Any help would be great since is pretty much the last thing that would complete the look for my device.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] ricster2000:
I installed this yesterday and having EXACTLY the same problem as well :( not sure why its happening
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] PC Master:
can anyone tell me plz how to change just the start icon to SE icon?!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
I described which file to edit and the exact point where to edit in the second page of this thread

@fxcoupeman83 & ricster2000:

That's the lack of a bluetooth mask, the distorted BT icon appears when using aa non-black taskbar. A fix will be up in no time
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] ianl8888:
I just love it when people assume that I don't know the difference !!

My post stands ... OK ??

The point is that the icons under discussion here (GSM signal/no signal; GPS) appear in the same place successively in the task bar when GSM signal strength is marginal to drop-out. This is what we call a clue.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] ianl8888:
Further to the above post, I've attached a JPG of my taskbar icons when there is no GSM signal.

As may be seen, the NO GSM SIGNAL icon is really very difficult to mistake for a satellite dish (the GPS icon)

My semi-informed guess here is that the GPS icon displays in the wrong place (ie. where the GSM phone signal icon resides by default) and is overwritten by the phone icon as a WinMo default

I'm using Jack Leung's Lite ROM v2.1. The icons are from gtrab's phcanOverbmp.dll
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
@fxcoupeman83 & ricster2000

or any other using a non-black takbar:

Please try this CAB and report if the BT icon improves over the non-black background

Uninstall SEX1cons v1.0, then install this new one and please REPORT

Should look a lot better, like this:

;)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] emokulit:
thank you!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] fxcoupeman83:
Thanks gtrab, new version works perfectly and looks fantastic.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] quetzalquatl:

This is exactly what I ment. Ok... with other words, but certainly with no offencing intention. So, don,t get it wrong... I'm here to learn not to offend people. Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
This is really great. But got a little question: is it posibble to only changes this 2 things?:

1- Taskbar Icons:

* Incorporated new icons (my work) for Speakers, Messages, Headsets, Romaing, Notifications, USB to PC, WiFi detection, WiFi disconnected & GPS

* GSM phone/data signal: from HTCLeener Option 1, untouched, plus some picks here and there from HTCLeener, crazylilboy & tsowen, all edited by me to match carnero's squared icons

* Battery icons: from Darklord69, untouched (10% increments due to hardware limitation; if you have a solution please share)

2- Start icon: Sony Ericsson LOGO from guap - retouched by me

Or if that is a problem just point 1. And how to do that?

I really like the icons so hope you can help me.

Thanks in advanced,
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
Sort of a "standard" set for any phone ??

Hmmm I like the idea, let me work on it

For WWenglish or for any language ??

:)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
Yes sort of standard set:)

I'm using a dutch rom so any language if that is possible.

If not possible can you maybe just tell how to change the other things back after installing your great program. Because I really want to use this but just don't like the splash screen and the waiting cursor/icon(just personal opinion, no offense)

regards,
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
Send me your "notify.dll.0409.mui" file from your dutch ROM and I can cook a dutch customized package, otherwise you will only miss the notification alarm (bell) icon
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
@killer8nl:

I have cooked a non-Sony Ericsson version for you

Only changes are:

CHANGES:

- SE logo removed from start and wait

- Removed Xperia boot screen

- Merged my icons with tsowen's shellres.192.dll who's got a nice HTC icon from ppcgeeks for start icon

I called it "standard Q series SEX1CONs"

- Still have not merged the world behind the bars, busy day...

Also, I extracted a notify.dll.0413.mui from a dutch ROM and cooked a dutch version for you

Please test and report, if all goes OK then I'll add them to the main front

PLEASE TEST AND REPORT
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
really great:) I'm sure i'm gonna use this when you sort out some problems.

I installed the " gtrab_SEX1cons_Qseries_std_v1.1d.cab " but I've seen some problems. The enter password(at startup) page is changed to the manila one(not the normall speria one). Also the start button icon at the left corner is changed to a htc icon(xperia icon looked better in my opinion).

All other functions are really great:D.

Keep up the good work:)

Regards,
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
These are no bugs: as I stated in my last post, I just merged my icons into tsowen's shellres.192.dll in a hurry, BUT ARE YOU GETTING THE DUTCH ALRAM SIGNAL ??

tap clock -> alarms -> tap bell and read the text "play sound", "flash light", etc, it should be in dutch
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] tr41n:
Well, thanks for your work, very well done and great looking. I just wanted to support killer8nl on this one: if you have Touch-IT Blackstone Dialer installed and no icons at all (X1 stock) then your cab will mess up the dialer. If you cab is installed first and then die dialer, same thing happens. Is there a method to fix this as I don't like the stock X1 dialer.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
You are crazy :D

I love the Xperia dialer so much I cooked my icons over it,

and you want to preserve the manila (blackstone) dialer in your Xperia ?? LOL

Completely inverse ideas

The "dialer" UI is the phone "canvas" over bmp file (phcanOverbmp.dll)

Posssible solutions:

PLAN A: Use Angelusz' version of tsowen's taskbar. Tsowen worked over the stock manila diamond phcanOverbmp.dll (same as blackstone)

PLAN B: Copy your Touch-IT phcanOverbmp.dll as a backup before installing SEX1cons, then copy it back to \windows\

You dialer will remain Blackstone-ish, but you will miss some icons cooked into that file (Active Sync USB connection icon, Roaminng, Missed call and WiFi icns)

PLAN C: get me a copy of the Touch-IT phcanOverbmp.dll and I can add the icons inside, not touching the phone canvas bmps

I´ll remove the newer files since they don't do what they were supposed to do
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
I think tr41n means the enter password on startup is changed to the manila one and he and also me prefere the xperia one(and you also did you said in your last post). I attached a phote of what it is like now.

Btw. the call aplication in the start menu is still the xperia one it is just the password at startup.

For the alarm signal. Everything seems to be dutch:) very nice.

Also the start button icon is still a htc(it's tsowen I know) but the xperia icon would be nicer. It would more fit your original skin what got a very nice se icon in the left corner.

Thanks in advanced,

If you need any further testing I would pleased to help you.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Angelusz:
Ah yes, I've seen that guide and soon decided I didn't have enough time for it. :p

I'm using almost the same tools as you are, except that I use Photoshop and non-trial (non-legal) versions of PE Explorer and CE Cab Mgr.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
I haven't seen that screen never in my entire life :eek:

Which dialer skin are you getting with this PIN skin ??

Can you post a pic please ?? Or is it equal to the one I am showing on the first post ??
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
I haven't installed any skins or whatever so it should be the normal xperia skinds but this is what i get after installing the dutch version you posted yesterday.(screens attached)

First skin is the pincode page at startup(should be the normal one but i get the manila one after installing the application)

Second screen is how the dial section looks like(just normal)

Third screen is what the call list is like(I painted a red line around the changed icons)

Hope you can sort this out. If you need any further information I would be pleased to help you.

Keep up the good work, the icons are really nice:)

Regards,
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
I already PMed you

Got the info and figured out what the problem was with your cutsom DUTCH version

I have temporarily removed the DUTCH version but I promisse we will solve this today together
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] tr41n:

Now you can have a look at the dialer. I'd like to use this together with your icons if possible :)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] alias_neo:
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply, apologies for the lateness in my thank you.

I guess this is where I was going wrong, although I am familiar with editing system files I am unaccustomed to the "Mobile" platforms and the inherent problems with getting the files from the devices. I did not think to assume that a ROM dump would be the easiest way to obtain the files. Somewhat of a practice of mine (for security) has been always to use a copy of the actual file in use made by my own hand, in order to ensure correct versions and what not, again, a downfall in my methodology in this case.

Where might I find your development package, I assume it will vary depending on release, as I am now on R2AA_10? (going back to my paranoia concerning file versions.)

Thank you again.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
I would have to cook yet another version for blackstone...

Anybody elese interested on a blackstone version ??

BTW: Just finished the "standard" edition (sans Sony Ericsson stuff, plain Windows plus the icons) - Download link in the first post

aye aye sir:

Angelusz' "AnX1 Tsowen Taskbar - SE Mods V1.2" is blackstone-based, shouldn't change your horrible blackstone dialer :p

PS:

NEW FILES UP on first post:

- IMPROVED SEX1cons version 1.2, english and international

- NEW STD1cons version 1.2 UP (same icons, no Sony Eircsson shizz :D)

- DUTCH language MUI file (complement for the "international" version, just copy to windows folder and will add the notification bell->clock icon for dutch users ;)) - look at the third post

No Icons

Just incase anybody wants the Start/Wait mods as in gtrabs work but without the changed icon set, here is the modified version I made and am using.

Please let me know gtrab is you are opposed to me using bits of your work or if you would prefer i present them differently.

All credits to gtrab, i merely made this dll without the iconset, because I didn't like it. (I'm a perfectionist and minimalist) and the new icons are too "loud".:D

You know the drill, install sdkcerts.cab, then copy this dll to windows folder to overwrite, restart immediately.

P.S. Included sdkcerts.cab cause it was really hard for me to find, more places it's linked the better.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] VanMobileMan:
Thanks gtrab, those icons are staying forever. As for the volume I don't like TouchFLO3D style mods much as the Blackstone Youtube player cooked my X1 video player abilites.

But so far I love it! Those icons rock, and I'm usually one who frowns on mods. Very professional and classy.

Just out of curiousity can you send a screenshot of your X1's today screen. I wanna see what your working with.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] nurps:
Any chance you could include the bouncing SE Icon with black background from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=482727?

Black Wait

I have added a copy of my No Icon shellres.192 with the black wait from the post you requested. I'm sure gtrab will do the same with his set that has the custom icons if he has time. If not I may do it for you if I have the time.

Attached to my previous post (#53), stock icons and everything just the wait icon and start button changed.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] darthmelk:
Excellent, I also liked the waiting and start icons, but not the coloured taskbar icons.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
honestly speaking, I find the new iconset too detail and becomes hard to see when it's shown up in the device (the granularity doesn't show up in a 3.2" screen and in fact makes the icon look bad)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] killer8nl:
The icons are very nice. And the dutch files are working fine.
