Thanks MG this helps a lot, I am not sure what is up with the Bluetooth and need to figure that out. For the transparency I will have to work those and come up with a fix. The call history since the phcanOverbmp.dll was added I think it is taking over so I will need to look at a fix for that as well. Almost there my man!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Huge favor here guys, need someone who has a Stock WM 6.5 ROM and no added taskbar to check the following registry items:

"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:65

"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:3e9

"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"

"BaseId"=dword:0

I need to know what you have with Stock.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
if i uninstall your taskbar will that put all the entries back to stock?

i have had no other TB on this WM6.5 rom, the only things i had were the test dlls you sent so there was no reg changes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Hi,

nothing to do with your request, but i think your shellres is messed up.

it works, but you know ive asked 4-5 times to have a particular start orb, well i decided to do it myself and add it to your dll and it cannot be opened.

I have tryed with restorator and it will not open and i have also tryed with RESHACK and that gave me access violations.

please can you tell me whats going on, or put the orb i want into the shellres please?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
I don't think so because my cab puts those entries in there so your phone will display all the added icons from the phcanOverbmp.dll see originally the phcanOverbmp.dll only contained 20 battery images and the rest were added in there. This is what we need to do with the shellres.192.dll from WM 6.5 because as 12aon said with WM 6.5 there is no phcanOverbmp.dll but if placed in there the phone will read it, however with that being said this is where some of the conflict is now coming from such as the call history icons being read now from the WM 6.1 phcanOverbmp.dll and others. As for bluetooth I have sent a PM to 12aon trying to figure out where this icon is. I seen it in the shellres and have skinned it but as you posted it is now showing up, others have posted and it shows up for them so maybe its how the ROM's are being cooked. With WM 6.5 most everything is now being controled by the shellres.192.dll file with help from the tapres.192.dll and the outres.192.dll files. MG is this the icon you had for your call history?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
No, this icon is for the contact info:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] hefman:
MG, I was able to edit tsowen's newest shellres for a colored start menu icon, so I know it can be done (see screenshot). I'm sure tsowen will get around to it, but I've posted my shellres, if you want to use it. Or, if you have a specific graphic you want, I can give it a go.

BTW, I've been digging around for the resource that has that hideous HTC quickmenu icon in it, but I'm not having much luck. The HTC task manager uses resource files called TaskmgrCustRes.dll and taskservice.dll, but the icon is not there. Anyone have any other ideas where this bugger might be?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Thanks for the info, i have got to the point now where i just want the thing to work!!

restorator is opening all other dll's but that one!! lol

im going to try and find a "working" version of PE Explorer!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
FINALLY!!!

I dont know what was going on but i finally got my icon into the dll!!

what you think?

I have been working on others if anyone is interested to see them?

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] formula84:
Can you please post I like.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Ill just check with Tsowen
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Bro I have been hunting this sucker down as well and will do more digging now that someone is on it, still trying to fix the Bluetooth icon.

MG you didn't have a screen shot of the call history how it looked before? I can try and find it and plug it into the phcanOverbmp.dll
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
give me a sec, ill remove your current taskbar and re-apply the dlls and post a shot.

give me 5
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Ok,

this is a weird one. i uninstalled the taskbar, restarted and my device had standard windows icons etc.

i decided to check the call history to see what it looked like and this is what i found.

It turns out you hadnt skinned the call history, what i saw was just the standard icons.

I have seen the icons that do this in the shellres.dll for WM6.5 close to the top if i remember rightly!!

It's fairly difficult to follow the goings-on on this thread but I must commend the devs here. Will there be any cabs soon? Love MG's set of icons but would prefer the start menu white 6.5 icon. Thanks in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] VoXHTC:
Sorry wasn't able to reply tsowen. Been stuck at work. Your new cab fixed the EV icon. Still no bluetooth icon I've been trying to fix it myself with no luck.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mddjr01:
Love the globe by start can you release a cab? Thanks! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
There are cab's out already I have one a few pages back and if you check 12aon's signature he has one too.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] jneilliii:
yeah, the orb goes with the theme better, please post cab if possible.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] adwinp:
Here's a vanilla shellres from the latest 21210 WM6.5 build.

Anyone have some files to QVGA screens without 5mb of files? With 1mb +- :o:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
what do you mean?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] J0nas:
sorry my limited english :o

I would like put these icons on my phone, but, the file size is too large for my memory phone... If is possible made files with files\images to decrease file size.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
whats your language?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] jneilliii:
Thank you so much.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] J0nas:
:(:o:o

I mean that this one is for a vga and is 5mb bigger, so what i would like if someone could do is, a qvga dll file, that can be smaller than this one, perhaps 1mb if possible. I thought so, because the pictures inside will be smaller than the vga pictures, i'm i right?

Thank you

ps: I'm a portuguese guy!:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
It is being worked on, we have just started working on WM 6.5 taskbar's but I assure you my man gadgetfreak from PPCGeeks will be working a QVGA version, also you are correct in some sense the images are smaller and should take up less space which would save memory.

Hi to everyone....

I want this tsowen taskbar, where can I download it?

P.S. In this taskbar It's included the wm logo? I don't like it I prefer the standard.

Large Title Bar

I have something weird going on with the Large Title Bar.

When I press the top bar, to get the System Status Menu, and I'm connected to data, the signal icon displays both the "H" indicating my data connection, and a phone icon. Is there a way to fix that?

Also, as you already know, the large icons are very fuzzy/distorted. Is there an easy way to fix this? I know aruppenthal's RRE ROMs have been updated to correct this problem. Is the issue just that the images in the Large Title Bar dll need to be a higher resolution?

P.S. I attached a screenshot below of the issue I'm taking about. As you can see in the first pic, I'm connected to Data (you'll also see I was able to fix the "OK" button, and the BT icon in the Wireless Today plugin).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Fix is being worked on by GadgetFreak at PPCGeeks, he has been the man tackeling my LargeTitaleBar
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Mr. Makk:
dude its height to misusing power. many ppl know i started this thread and now its in your name thanks to some moderator. such a CHEAP act dude. grow up.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 12aon:
I hope you realize the absurdity of what you are assuming. Why would anyone go through that much trouble to steal a thread, when you can just start a new one. It's just a simple product of merging threads. I hope there is some way you can be restored as owner of this thread, but in the mean time my first post better be useful right? I do also hope you realise that this is a community though you may not be owner of this thread for now people are still being helped, and you can still be of service like you were. As I said in a PM, I'm still willing to update the first post according to your preferences. But I am thoroughly not amused by your way of handling this, although I understand that your upset. So from this point onwards I will consider the air cleared and I will hold no grudge whatsoever, I hope you will come to see that I am really one of the good guys, 12
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Let me clear the air a little here, I merged the threads from the original Taskbar thread already out there since you decided to create a new one, when merging threads they automatically fall in chronological order as they were created. A new thread was not needed just specifically for the WM 6.5 taskbar and technically its not even in the right forum as this is not HTC Diamond specific but I let it slide and merged everything in the previous thread mentioning WM 6.5 taskbar items. Therefore, there was no misusing of authority nor will I except taking shots at other users nor myself in public or through PM as you sent me. 12aon happened to land on top and he edited his post for the community and everyone else in the thread explaining what this thread is about. Now with that being said a simple PM to myself asking me to restore you as the creator would have been suffice verses the manor in which you handled it. Now if you wish to be restored as the owner of the thread I sudgest you contact me through PM otherwise the thread and owner will stand as is.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Captain_Throwback:
Ok, so I figured out the problem with the Bluetooth icons -

There are actually TWO bmps that WM 6.5 uses to display the BT & headset icons on the Transparent home screen. One is the standard file, i.e. "BT On Mode.bmp", and the other is a background file, "BT On Mode Mask.bmp". The Mask file is the negative/transparent background of the regular file. The Mask files will need to be provided along with the other files in order for the BT top bar icons to display correctly on the standard transparent home screen. Otherwise, the system will use the previous (stock) Mask file, which cause the distorted image.

P.S. I think this might only apply for people using the HTC Dialer, since those files are found in the same package as the Phone Canvas.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 12aon:
Ah yes nice one muchas gracias for the find, 12
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Work around for the battery images since WM 6.5 they are located in the shellres but only 11 icons are included so for those who wish not to use the phcanOverbmp.dll due to the dialer skin take the old phcanOverbmp.dll and delete all the bmp's and icons other than the battery images which should be 101 images starting with Icon Group 1001 now save the file as phcanBattery.dll make sure your registry is set as below:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BaseDll"="phcanBattery.dll"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BaseId"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:000003e9 (Hex) [COLOR="DarkRed"]or 1001 (Dec)[/COLOR]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:00000065 (Hex) [COLOR="darkred"]or 101 (Dec)[/COLOR]

Make sure you double check and you deleted everything out of the .dll other than the battery images. Tried the above mentioned technique and it worked correctly.

Hi there Tsowen, I've installed this on my 6.5 Rom and have a problem with Single Volume Control.

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] VoXHTC:
Did you enable the default skins for the volume control or the dialer pad? I had this problem a couple times. iI changed the skins on the keypad and volume. Diamond Tweak has the option for the volume skin , it's best to leave everything HTC style for now. Never did see what the default wm 6.5 volume looked like. I got some weird "HTC Volume Settings, Do Your Volume Settings" message and it didn't allow for any options.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nicelad_uk:
I'm on the HTC volume control but its something to do with the HTCVolumeControl.dll file. I've found another from a previous top icon set I had working, but it does change the volume icon after loading, but thats just cosmetic. I'll attach in case others have the problem.

On another note, anyone got this version with the HTC logo as the start menu? Looks soooo much better with that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Captain_Throwback:
As an addendum to my previous find, I believe that a side effect of anyone using the stock WM6.5 dialer along with tsowen's of 12aon's taskbars will be that the Bluetooth icon will not display in the taskbar.

The reason for this is that each of their taskbars includes phcanOverbmp.dll, which seems to override the BT icon info in the shellres.192.dll. This dll looks for the BT icon bitmaps in the \Windows folder (both the icon, and the Mask background file), and in the absence of the Mask bitmap, on the standard home screen, no icon will be displayed.

I can confirm this because I tried deleting the "Mask" bitmap files prior to cooking my ROM, thinking that it would just use the regular bitmap files, but instead, I have no BT icon show up on the top bar.

If you are not using the HTC Dialer, I recommend following tsowen's suggestion regarding the battery icons. This may also correct the BT icon issue, since I don't think those bitmaps are part of the standard 6.5 install. Someone who is using the stock dialer will have to test it, though.

So maybe its a good idea to have 2 separate taskbar versions after all - one for people using the HTC dialer (including phcanOverbmp.dll), and one for those using the stock dialer (using phcanbattery.dll). Of course, we still have to work out all the kinks, yet. But progress is definitely being made :).

Thanks for all the hard work eveyone puts in its greatly appreaciated
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nitroproductions:
tsowen, i installed the icons and all of them got replaced except the 3G icon. The attached screenshot should give you a better idea. I checked and verified the registry settings and they are all fine. Im not sure whats goin on as it doesnt seem anyone else is having this issue. any ideas? I am running [ROMeOS²][WM6.5][42009] v2.101 PUBLIC TEST | 21501.5.0.7 with the latest Xperia radio. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey dude,

Nice to hear from you, shame it is on bad terms. this guy is an arsehole!!!

I have made a graphic for just such an occasion, i use it for all my other digital artwork, and it is bound by copyrights!!! Fully Legally Enforcable!!:

I have edited it abit so my details are not showing, but do y ou think i should make a "Standard XDA Dev's" Anti-Theft Banner for Everyone/Anyone Developing artwork here?

I think that this could be used in a few ways:

1: you should put this into the head of your DLL's, assign it as an unused icon, i dont know if you can make it so that the dll is corrupted when it is removed?

2: You should also post it in the first post of the thread

3: It should be included in the zip file with the CABS.

this will make everything copyrigth to this site (If i have XDA-Dev's on the banner somewhere)

Shall I Go Ahead and create the XDA Developers Copyright?

Art Theft is DISGUSTING!!!

EDIT: Also you can create a "Creative Commons" Licence HERE which allows you to set different attributes for how people are aloud to use the work.

With this Licence I have created HERE the work can be distributed UNALTERED and ONLY if CREDIT is given to the original artist.

Here is my latest cab for test and evaluation and still Beta at the moment I am hoping with this the BT Icons are cleared up. Still have the standard WM 6.5 Start icon and I know I am missing the voicemail icon I believe. I also need someone to test out the speaker phone and see if the icon shows, I think this one moved from the tapers to the shellres if not then I know where it is.

Do you want me to make an XDA Developers Customised version?

which can be displayed in the first post?

I think the above should be one big link to HERE or HERE

do you want the usual torrent of screenshots, or can i get away with the ones that havent been working, i.e. BT and speakerphone?

MG
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tsowen:
Yeah I think we can display it in the first post and should cover the entire thread and all the artist within the thread.

Yeah you can just give screen shots of the BT and Stero if it works and also the speaker phone icon. Also can you post or email that Start Icon you had for when I go final with the release of the taskbar? Also if you see any other icons missing or not working right let me know. I am not sure if you read a few pages back about my idea with the phcanbattery.dll and leaving out the full phcanOverbmp.dll basically just taking the batter portion of the phcanOverbmp.dll and saving it but renaming it phcanbattery.dll and having the registry point to it to read the batteries. I think this would help with the Dialer . Anyways I will work on that tommorow and post for those who are not using the HTC Dialer.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Yeah i hate the HTC dialer, it takes SOOO long to load!!! even when putting the PIN in you cant press a button for about 35 seconds!!

Ill get that icon for ya tommorrow, im just off to bed, been acting in a short film all day!!!

pchanbattery sounds interesting!! and promising!!
