I ran into a problem while attempting to relink some icons disassociated during a Start Menu reorganization. Because of the number of icons in the Windows directory, the browse bombs trying to list them. Moreover, it won't let me simply type the full path to the file. Even if the browse could handle it, it would be too slow if you had more than one that needed to be done. It works as expected if you are selecting from a directory with a reasonable number of icons. However, it's no rarity to want to specify one of the icons from the Windows directory. This issue could be solved by implementing allowing the selection by either browsing or typing in the full path.

Thanks!

Same here. I've noticed this on both 2.8b and 2.9b.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] IT_Architect:
I don't remember or do "save the theme", but I do use the clear icon cache option after I change icons. After I do, I receive a dialog box that states that I have to do a soft reset. Then I press the OK to that I get the customary program crash with the "An unexpected error has occurred" error. Then I do a soft reset and everything is good.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Hello,

I updated my ROM, and I am unable to load my backuped theme. :o

Error "Méthode introuvable : ResetPocketPC"

I have \Program Files\JWMD Icon changer\Themes\ with *.png and a BackUp.ictp file

Any clue ?

hi amazing Mr. :)

i used the JWMD Icon Changer V2.9b on my omnia 2 GT-i8000 but when ever i try to browse to the icon folder it gives me error and close the app.

any advice ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
There seems to an error with 2.9b, I would recommend you go back to 2.8b for the time being.

anybody still having the soft-reset problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DarkAlpha:
yes, always
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
OK .. preparing you guys an update for this.. I will upload a new version later this evening (9pm +8 GMT)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
Hey, that's great! I'll just throw this out there, because it has been a while since it was mentioned. When trying to change icons, if you search the Windows folder for icons, the progress meter will get about 75% through the scan and then the program crashes. Right now I experience that on 2.8b.

Also, while building the CAB, could you please include the start menu icon for this program in the install? Thank you very much.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
Ok. Will try to do something about that issue in Search. AFAIK, the error caused due to out-of-memory, and probably some GDI buffer which has been a problem since day 1. But I'll see what I can do about it.

Icon, yep sure :)

New Release

Version 2.10.0819.2011

UPDATE

- Updated Picture Browser UI

ADDED

- Application Icon

FIXED

- API missing method - issue when making a soft-reset

Check the 1st post to download the CAB.

GUYS I NEED A QUICK UPDATE FROM YOU IF THAT MISSING METHOD HAS FIXED. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
Hey Null,

Just ran v10 and so far all looks good. I was able to do the following:

1. pick icon from windows folder without crash

2. clear icon cache

3. soft reset after clearing icon cache

4. new app icon looks great and is applied

Just for the sake of being anal, it would be cool if the start icon had the prefix "Start_Icon..." on it, since it is in the windows folder. But that is just me being picky.

I have to say, the scanning for icons of the windows folder worked great and it actually went fairly fast, given how many image files there really are in there.

Is there anything else specifically you would like to see tested with this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] poyensa:
thanks for the update nullstring :) installed in SD and working fine in my HD2, WM 6.5.5
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
looks great will get soon
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vladimirus:
Will this work with icons NOT in the start menu? For examples, to change the generic "favorites icon" found in \windows\favorites folder.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
so how are you guys doing with this app?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
It's doing everything I wanted it to do. Thanks a ton for still working on it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vladimirus:
for changing start menu icons, is very good! How about for changing icons not located in start menu? It doesn't seem to do that but maybe I missed something?

Sorry, not at the moment :)

Last update: 17 August 2011. That is awsome. Thank you so much. I do still get Errors when importing a theme. "FileNotFoundException" I am using NRG's July 4th ROM. Would anyone know how I can avoid that? I gues I will recreate the theme with the newest version and Save it again. Maybe that will help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
Sorry guys but theme import and export will be dropped soon. I have a better one but currently under development but not active due to a lot of stuff I have to work on. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
Also, you can use CHTS for icon theme backup and restore. It works quite well, it was written to work with JWMD Icon Changer. The link is in my signature.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vishwajeet19:

I could answer that only if you were reading properly about reporting an error. It was written in the very first post:

NEW RELEASE

October 05, 2011 - Version 3

ADDED

- Refresh Start Menu Icons

-- no need to restart after making a changes and sorting the menu items!!

FIXED

- Potential bug in Picture Browser which doesn't clear the memory
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] swiss420:
Thank you very much for the update. Works great so far. I was not able to test the import yet. Were you able to optimize somthing in that department? You were saying earlier that the Theme Option will be removed I assume that has not happend yet since it is still there or have you reworked it already? Just wondering.

Since everyone else seem to have left Windows Mobile App development you definetly deserve a little something for the work but I hope there are others that will also donate something to make it count a little more.

Totaly understand that you are looking into WP7 it seems sooner or later we all have to move on. Are you personaly using WM, WP7, or Android if you dont mind me asking? Just in case you ever need some graphics works done either for an App or Threads let me know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
It will be removed soon. ;)

I just got your donation and like to say Thank you very much with that!

Well, currently I am using Windows Mobile phone, I had an Android device but I sold it, I was just disappointed with the device specs it self.

Am trying to develop an app for Windows Phone 7, but I could only test it via the emulator and cracked version of WP7 image, but of course It has to be tested on the actual device.. I can't just buy one because its so expensive here, plus, new WP7 devices keeps coming, and I don't want to like feel like, ok I was left alone again so I am keeping some money to buy the one that I really like

sure thing!! :D

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Edvin73:
Maybe I do not get it but where is the point with the last version.Theme is removed but it was very useful for someone who likes different icon themes for different skins.Where is the last version of the icon changer better than the 3.0 b version.Thanks for the answer.

And for those with the icons not changed(mostly with the quicklinks), clear the icon cache.It never fails or rename the app,folder,program etc.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
you can download 3.0b :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Edvin73:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rookie69:
Sorry. I have not really testet the new version yet. I have a little bit work from my boss. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grinminded:
Same here not working ung sort current items.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
this is very confusing .. sorting is working in my WM65 Build 23017 and even in Windows Mobile 6.5 Emulator.

I tried cooking 23053 but no lock running it in Device Emulator.. can someone please show me a screenshot of your registry again, now with Name and Values, I have to look at the "Rank" .. I can't reflash my device right now..

same base key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\startinfo\start

if you have "Games", "Today", or any subkeys, open it and make a screen shot of it showing names with Group, Rank, Icon.

sample screenshot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rookie69:
That was the reason for the last video. Rank is the same for most icons. (Rank is shown when saving theme)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
there's no problem with having the same Rank value. Rank is just used to determine the position of the icon in the start menu..

ok here's the plan guys, i'll appreciate it if you make a video, it'll help a lot! make a video, that starts with Sorting, scrolling from top to bottom in the current icon list and saving a theme.. please :( this is to determine if the value set to Rank is updated or not.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
guys, I flashed my elf with WM65 Build 23053 and tried sorting , jumbling the icon arrangement and its working!! how come you guys don't??

theoretically, I think I got the problem.. and thanks to Rookie69's video.. though am not sure I'm correct..

Do guys ever arrange your icons (in StartMenu) by dragging?

Windows Mobile 6.5 (taskbar at the top)

Favorite / REG_DWORD

FavoriteOrder / REG_Binary

Windows Mobile 6.5 (taskbar at the bottom)

ItemPosition / REG_DWORD

this NameValue pair messed the sorting.. and this only added when you manually re-arrange the icons in your Start Menu
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TheRem:
yes. i did drag-arranged some of the shortcuts (maybe about 5 times) before installing your program.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:

@TheRem

can you please check if the sorting works now? :) thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
DragonWorld's referencing the same registry key values. :D

am not going to flash my elfin again :D

have you tried "Scan Uregistered Shortcuts" ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rithina:
Some of my icons are not registered as well and i can't change them.. eg.. "Remote desktop mobile"

use "Scan Uregistered Shortcuts"

this will register shortcuts in the registry...

what Windows Mobile 6.5 build number are you using?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rithina:
Yup, I tried that. But it wasn't working and only 2 shortcut like dice game and today was registered.

My build is: 5.2 21856

yes i do but register only one icon :((
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] guap:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
where's the attachement? and can you send me a file list starting "\Windows\Start Menu"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nullstring:
i've got a doubt that some SpecialFolder reference where missing or it was changed in registry.. or Italian version is different.. ? (wish some Italian developer can confirm that) :confused:

in C#, they way to handle this is :)

string base_folder = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.StartMenu);

that way I don't have to worry about getting the correct StartMenu path in different language. :rolleyes:

but now, am worried and confused again.. :(
