Found a fix to get the battery icon working. Make sure you have the following reg settings:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]

"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]

"BaseId"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]

"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:000003e9

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DePiek:
Thanks, it works fine.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Beefheart:
I second this, loved the no-start taskbar on 1.43 but only a couple of the icons work with 1.48, with or without sdkcert installed.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Beefheart:
Bump.

Any chance this superb taskbar could be updated for the new HD2 1.48 rom?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Hi Pagnell, yes, I already have a working update, but I want wait to post it because I want to remake the taskbar from scratch with original OS28008 or 28011 files. I hope I can work it on wednesday, so please wait a little :)

Sorry but lately I have too little time...:(

Thanks,

dafunk

EDIT: Pagnell I read right now you use roms with the start button on top left. I have to make it from scratch as well...it's just a matter of time mate ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Beefheart:
Cheers for the update mate. I was going to try and get some others to work but will wait until your one is out as your No-Start is the best I've found. :cool:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Thanks, really appreciate ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tboy2000:
I have tried a few task bars and this is the best looking of all. looking forward to the 1.48 rom version and i suggest you post it in the Leo forum too. You will get a lot of fans and praise for it I am sure. :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Updated Opening Post.

Added taskbar for OS 28011.

Please report if anything is fine, thanks :)

Ciao ;)

dafunk
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Beefheart:
Brilliant mate, works an absolute treat on my 1.48 rom HD2. Cheers. :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tboy2000:
Thanks. I installed the 28011 cab and it works well on my leo 1.48 rom but I still have the white windows flag in top left corner. How can i change it to one of the colored icons. Do i need to install one of the A-B or C-D cabs in addition to the 28011 cab?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
@Pagnell & tboy2000....

It's great to see the taskbar in a real Leo screenshot :D

Anyway tboy2000, yes, try to install the A-B or C-D cabs.

Thanks a lot dudes...if the task is guaranteed to work fine, probably will open a thread in the LEO section too.

Grtz ;)

You are doing an awesome job, but i tried to open up c-d 218xx and it says file unavaliable, would love to have it on my Tilt2. Thanks:D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Thanks for the report mate, I will move the files to 4shared.

Ciao :)

EDIT: Done, updated the links for 218XX in opening post.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mddjr01:
Thank you it looks great!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Thanks dude, you're welcome ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] crm4:
I installed Brians BW dafunk_mod 218xx A version on HD2 stock 1.43 French ROM, and only volume icon is skinned.

Is this because it's not WWE ROM?

I really wished it worked :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] maniatico:
hi did u install sdkcert cab before the tast bar?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] l3ights:
great work man. to get this, do i need to get win mob 6.5, i just download the files from 1st post
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] crm4:
Absolutely. I installed sdkcerts, taskar cab and soft reset.

Only a few icons changed, and also when i unplug usb cable, power icon doesn't change back to battery icon.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] JLowe:
How can I backup my HTCVolumeControl.dll? It is not possible for me to make a copy with Total Commander (Error because of Rom-file, 0 byte copied...).

Dafunk Wait Cursor?

I have used brian's taskbars for a long time because of his sleek black & white look. I stumbled onto your version a couple of days after you first posted it, and I have been using it ever since. In my opinion the only thing missing is a custom wait cursor. The stock rainbow cursor just seems so out of place with the rest of the system. I have hijacked some other's cursors in the past and just added it to the shell, but they never seem to match this theme. I was just wondering if you might try your hand at a different cursor. I would be excited about anything except for the rainbow. Maybe somebody could try an all red version, or an all yellow version, or an all blue version, or red and yellow, or anything but rainbow version...

thanks for all efforts and keep up the good work
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gwbard:

Indeed, a "funked"-out wait cursor would certainly be a welcome treat! :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] turt:
I also installed the mod 218xx (A2) on my HD2, but on a 1.48 WWE version (21869), and only a few icons were changed:

- start icon

- volume icon

- battery was WM6.5 original, not HTC one (and not Brians' one either).

The rest of icons (network, wifi, bluetooth, ...) remained unchanged! :(

NB: I have of course installed sdkcert ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rollercoaster:
Here is how it looks on my HD2 1.48 official danish ROM v. WM6.5:

Tried installing the NO_START Patch as well, no changes unfortunately.

Am I doing something wrong or...?

Would really love to see this work, since its the most cool looking TB here imo, /cry

Btw. The phone was running on battery power when this ss was taken..odd :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bog3nator:
everything is perfect for CDMA but the EVDO icon. the 1x icon shows correctly but the EVDO shows the standard icon.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] citiboy:
Thanks, it's work well for me on Topaz with NGR's Rom. :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] carina77:
Highlight For HD2 Leo - Installing it the right way

You're doing it wrongly bro...I'm on 1.48 ROM too...It's supposed to be done this way :

1) Install SDKCerts cab.

2) Install 28011 Version Taskbar cab- ***At this point, you'll see all the icons working now except for the "Start" button...

3) Now, Install 218xx Version Taskbar cab ("Start" button version of your choice from A1-D2)...Voila!!! You now have a "Funky" b&w taskbar!!!

4) If you don't want the wording "Start" to show, install the "No Start" patch cab and you're all good!!!

***Just my opinion, but I think this is the best looking taskbar so far with no glitches on our beloved HD2 Leo...Thanks dafunk2 for a great taskbar!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] turt:
Hi,

I've found a bug with the battery icons: when the battery level is equal to 20%, the icon displays 40%!

How can I change this? Or can you release a fix for this?

Thanks for the great taskbar by the way! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
Thanks for reporting mate.

I am doing the OS218XX version from scratch, so I hope to post it soon.

I'm sorry if I didn't answer to you guys, but these last two week have been terrible for me and I had no time.....sorry :(

So, I'm doing an OS 218XX and as soon I release it, I will start to make a version for HD2 users too...it's just a matter of time.

Thanks again and I wish you a Merry Christmas :)

i dont know if you saw my post, i am using CDMA and everything works but the EV, 1X icons...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] basis2000:
Hi, I like these Icons! :)

Is it possible to get the Taskicon for ShowCase with your Style?

THX

:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] matriarchsira:
Hmm, I, too, cannot get rid off that "Start" letters. Everything is going fine until point 3 of your description, but the "No-Start" patch does not show any effect.

Just to confirm my procedings: I copied the patch on my SD card, clicked on it on the phone and installed it on the phones storage. It did not prompt any softreset demand. I did one anyway, but still - the "Start" letters remain.

My software:

Manila: 2.5.19202525.0

ROM: 1.43.111.2 (07315) GER

Does anyone have a clue, if there is another way to get rid of the "Start" letters on the homescreen?

Thanks and also many thanks for this great work :)!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dougi:
Great work...dude..

works just perfect on ENERGY series..

best taskbars ever used..

Keep it up
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] :
Hi,

reason why "START" is not removed in german version, is that only the english ".mui" file is replaced by the .cab file.

As long as you use [GER] ROM this woun't work.

Dear dafunk2,

do you see a chance to provide the cab for removing the START letters also for [GER] Roms?

I would attached the shellres.dll.0407.mui from Dutty's HG R6 [GER]. Unfortunately I cannot copy it out of the windows directory...Any hints?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Pandemoniumone:
WM 23518

Hi Dafunk,

just tested your icons on the WM build 23518 and all works well except for this minor issue. When I go to the Mail tab and press Menu/New Mail, the left menu option on the bottom is a "Reply" button instead of "Send". This isn't the case on the stock Rom so I thought I would mention it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] faust0r:
hello,

same here, everything works fine! but "Start" is not removed, i also got an GER ROM. i hope that someone can do a .cab to remove the Start letter.

thank you
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dick Starbuck:
Thanks for all your continued support of this taskbar. I know you are working on a new version, but I thought I would just drop a note.

The newest NRG 21889 has some issues. See pic...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] petzku:
Im anxiously waiting for the new version too! Thank you for your hard work man and keep it up plz. This is by far the best, coolest taskbaricon set I've seen! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] lifeboat:
WOW! dafunk2 - not only is this the sharpest taskbar out there (props to you and Brian!), but this is THE ONLY taskbar that's worked flawlessly on my phone. Awesome, and many thanks!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Starwalker:
+1 :)!

Love it, but not working completely at 21889 or 21890 builds (as shown in the picture above).

Cheers Lars
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dick Starbuck:
glad to report that the newest version of 21889 NRG- Raphael works with your taskbar. I guess he fixed some bug with his latest release of the build. Still hoping for a Dafunk modded wait cursor.

thanks again...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Dafunk, I just wanted to let you know for your own references.

I love the taskbar mod and installed it on my CDMA Rhodium, with WinMo 6.5.x 23518. Sense 2.5.2011. It installed fine and all looks great, except I still had a white, with black lettered EV icon and the HTC Volumecontrol overlay was gone.

Just giving feedback, not a complaint at all. Thanks for all your efforts, as I know CDMA is a tricky thing to figure in, without being able to test. Not to mention all the changes in the OS lately. :) Keep up all your great work!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] enzyme:
Yep, love it. Love the START icon and the ok & X. But as a CDMA user, I am suffering from the same issues as Santod and others addressed. EVDO, 1x, and battery remains unchanged.

Dear Dafunk,

is there any possibility to change the no-start WWE cab so that it also will work on a Dutch ROM?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hesian:
On the 21890 it leaves the following in the top left:

White Microsoft Flag + Start text
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jdm627:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
I'm on 21887 WM6.5 also.. I want to edit my start menu icon (I use this taskbar: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=549092) but no matter what I do or what resource I edit in the shellres.192.dll, the start menu icon and signal bars dissapear.

I noticed my start menu icons is on 293 and 294 in shellres.192.dll, in your files its 307 and 308. No luck changing them either :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Can someone please upload here the NO_START Patch cab? All the links at www.4shared.com are not working and the only thing I would like to do is remove the useless START text from the start menu.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Thanks a lot:) I only want to remove the START text, but keep the flag button, so is this the correct patch?

Thanks again:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Open your shellres.dll.XXX.mui with PE Explorer or ResHack, go to "STRING" folder and value "321", edit "Start" there to whatever you want. You will need to unsign the file first and then sign it after you edited it, I uploaded the tools for you.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Thanks a lot. Im using standard English as far as which shellres.dll.XXX.mui to use, but I need to find some sort of tutorial on how to do this. I have never signed or unsigned files and though Ive used ResHack many times, I really dont know what I am doing here without risking making some sort of a major mistake...I thought this would be a simpler thing...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
For English language the file should be shellres.dll.0409.mui. Copy that file from \Windows to storage card and get it over to your computer, put the file together with Unsigner.exe somewhere, just drag the .mui file over the Unsigner.exe and the file is unsigned.

Now open ResHack > File > Open > chose the file > Open "String Table" map by pressing the + > Open map "321" by pressing the + > you'll see a resource called "1033" and then it should show like this:

STRINGTABLE

LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US

{

5120,	"Start"

5122,	"Storage Memory"

5123,	"Storage memory is critically low. If the storage memory is not increased, other programs may not be able to start. Use File Explorer to delete files that are no longer needed or move some files to a storage card."

}

Now just put in an empty space where Start is, like this " ". Save the file, open mssigner.exe, choose "Select file(s)", select the shellres.dll.0409.mui, then press "Start sign process!". Now when it's finished there should be a .txt file where the file is located, open it and it should say something like "The file is signed but not timestamped".

Hope this helps you ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Thank you SO much for your time to help me. Im very thankful. I will try it step-by-step. WIll make Resco Backup of my whole system in case something goes wrong I can restore it.

Thanks again ArtieQ:):):)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
np, glad to help :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Doing it now:) One final question: when signing the file at the end of the procedure with siggner.exe, should I choose SDKFailsafeEmulator, SDKSampleUnPrivDeveloper or SDKSamplePrivDeveloper (which seems to be the default)?

Thanks again:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Just leave it at SDKSamplePrivDeveloper, I don't really know what it does but I can emagine "PrivDeveloper" means SIGN and UnPrivDeveloper means UNSIGN.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
OK will do! Thanks again so very very much for all your help:):):)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
No luck. Got stuck on the very first step. Trying to copy shellres.dll.0409.mui from Windows to the storage card gives me immediately an access denied message. Cant copy it. I can maybe do a System Backup wih Resco Backup, then open the image on my PC and try to extract that file from there... something so simple is apparently so complicated... :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Hold on then, you might need ROM Extractor: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1571715

Download it, put the .exe on your phone (anywhere), start the file, locate the shellres.dll.0409.mui and put output folder as \Storage card\shellres.dll.0409.mui (VERY important to have the same name otherwise it won't extract). Now you have the file :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Ive never seen something so difficult. Impossible. The ROM extractor does NOT locate shellres.dll.0409.mui, believe it or not. Its like the file is not there. I have shellresapps.dll.0409.mui and shlwapi.dll.0409.mui, but not shellres.dll.0409.mui.

This is so crazy!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Try this file then, just move it to \Windows and overwrite the default one. Use either Resco File Explorer or Total Commander because they go through the warnings and stuff.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
Yeap, that's it, this one works. Needless to say you did the job for me so, many thanks:) When the phone boots-up and the home page comes up, momentarily word START shows-up but within a second its gone for good. Looks great.

Thanks a million. No, make that 2 million:)

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] VeEuzUKY:
ArtieQ I have a quick question. Does this updated MUI file control font size on the start menu? I just realized all the fonts of all my start menu shortcuts and folders are now all extremelly small. No system setting I try to apply changes them. I also tried several apps to control font size (ING Font Change, etc) and it changes the sizes of all the fonts on my systems BUT the ones in the start menu that stay small. Any ideas? Cheers:)

Volume icon gone on T-Mo HD2

Hello! I followed the step below but my volume icon is now gone and there is just a black box there. I am running the stock T-Mobile ROM and I am trying this after a hard reset so I have no other programs or tweaks installed yet.

"1) Install SDKCerts cab.

2) Install 28011 Version Taskbar cab- ***At this point, you'll see all theicons working now except for the "Start" button...

3) Now, Install 218xx Version Taskbar cab ("Start" button version ofyour choice from A1-D2)...Voila!!! You now have a "Funky"b&w taskbar!!!

4) If you don't want the wording "Start" to show, install the"No Start" patch cab and you're all good!!!"
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dafunk2:
@artieq and all other people experiencing wrong behaviours/bugs.

It's past a lot of time since my last update due to the fact that I have not much time lately to seat in front of my pc, but this evening I just noticed an horrible mistake I did because of my distraction:

I used the same dlls to build the 28011 and the 21xxx versions. The same dlls.... :(

Of course it can only be the source of many problems expecially for those who are installing the 21xxx version.

I'm sorry.....and as many of you will know, to build and update a taskbar is a pain in the a**...just think about that I made the same work 2 times LOL....

I know that I already promised to start from scratch and update the taskbar, but this time I have to do it really...I only need the time to do it, and it's hard to find it (wife, 4 children) :D, so this is a new promise....but I cannot estimate when will I release it, sorry.

However there will be some little changes, like the icon for airplane mode and I already made a custom wait cursor, this is a demo gif of the animation:

I think that I will follow the same idea of DarkNinja: modularity.

You will have all the "modules" (pieces of taskbar) that you have to assemble together to work with your device. This way it's a little bit difficult, but you will have a chance to get it working.

You know, there are too many devices, roms, OSes: building ONLY a taskbar version hoping that will work for everybody is pure crazyness :D

I will try to do my best :D

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dick Starbuck:
blank start icon

I modded the start icon to show nothing (blank). To use it just install whatever flavor dafunk you want (i use B2), then install the no start patch (if you like). soft reset. then add the shell res file from the Blank icon folder below to the windows folder of your device. soft reset. viola, no more visible start icon but it still works when you tap the area.

Sorry there is no cab file for this. If you want to return to the stock dafunk icon just install the shell res in the other folder. This worked for me on my raphael gsm with a 21xxx and 23xxx ROM.

thanks to dafunk for all the great work. I have to say I am excited about that new wait cursor. looks great.

[Touch HD General] SadisticRabbit:
Hey Guys,

I am sure I could do this with Windows 6.. or was it Windows 5??

Anyways, I want a password pin on my phone, but only when I turn it on.

At the moment, I have "Prompt if device unused for" set to 0 minutes. This means when I turn it off, it asks for a password when I turn it on again. The annoyance of this is that it also locks when I am reading emails etc.

I want to be able to have the device NOT lock unless I switch it off!

I seem to remember there was a setting, that you could enable power on password only.

Any help appreciated. It's driving me insane!
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
You need to go to settings > personal > phone > PIN/PIN2 and set PIN for phone. Now if you reset your device it should prompt you for a PIN
[Touch HD General] SadisticRabbit:
Hey There,

Many thanks for the reply. Sorry, I should have been clearer. This is not actually when powered off and on, I mean when I put it in standby by quickly pressing the power button, not resetting or restarting the device.
[Touch HD General] SadisticRabbit:
Basically what I want it to do is this...

When using the phone, it doesn't lock (password lock, not button lock).

When I press the power button to put it into standby, then when re-activated, it asks for the password.

My last Touch HD was stolen, and didn't have a password on it. I don't want that to happen again, so want it to ask for the password every time it is tuned on (bought out of standby), but I also don't want the hassle of having to enter the password every time the "prompt is device used for" activates. I read ebooks on my touch and it's a pain having it keep asking for the password. If I set the delay too long however so it doesn't interrupt me, there is a possibility that if it's stolen, it will be unlocked when it is.
