If you check out this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622235 or just pm djcedric (the OP) I'm sure he'd be able to help out with it a little. As well tacchan's taskbar here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5484342 works perfect as far as I know on my device as long as I don't use the htcvolumecontrol.dll in his cab. The problem lies in the .dll's from what I know though. Hope this helps.

Last one I found and this one worked perfect without me having to mod any .dll's and it doesn't break the htc volume control thats in most people's roms. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5573902#post5573902
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Il pm djcedric, hope he found a solution.. But is the android taskbar working? If so i could skin it to the old icons.. I think its a problem with the builds, maybe theres a difference in .dll's from different rom builds.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nirvanax:
not working in my hd2 with miri rom 3.0 but this task works http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=625465 maybe you can change it please thanks in advanced
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Does it not install at all? Or did it install but no change? its working perfectly on my touch hd with no problems :S..
[Windows Mobile Themes] nirvanax:
install but none of the icons bar changes ;(
[Windows Mobile Themes] ark666:
It installs and i don´t see any icons.

Regardless on how much i´d love to see this taskbar on my Rhodium, i think that a successful installation depends on the versions of the dlls you´ve tweaked, and all of those are from old WM and HTC apps versions.

Nevertheless you did a great job to come out with this.

Regards.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Hmm try the attached cab.. then isntall the taskbar.. lemme know if it helps..
[Windows Mobile Themes] ark666:
Thank you, but it´s the same, if u need some help from my part you´re welcome to pm me.

I´m cooking them to see how it goes.

Thanks again. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
I have no idea what the problem could be, what rom version are you using? il try make another shellres dll again using the one you gave as a template..

Is it the same for everyone else? could someone post if its working for them?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jfive1325:
I tested both, but ended up showing no icons in the taskbar at all.

I'm running on 21889, with the taskbar at the top (probably your work is designed for the taskbar at the bottom only?)

Anyway, this is the most nice looking addon for me. Hopefully you could find a way to fix it to fit most versions.

Regards :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] ark666:
I´ve made a rom with this.

And it´s one of the best icons i´ve seen on WM 6.5.X.

Uploaded pics.

P.S.: Bluetooth and Stereo headset icons need to be perfected, (minour).

Waiting animation is blue, maybe another colour, a more neutral one, (green), would suit everyone, but this is a personal opinion.

:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] jug6ernaut:
How hard would it be to port this to 6.5? non 6.5.x?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jperezalv:
Nice taskbar. Installed the black one with the battery percentage icon and looks great. Good work!
[Windows Mobile Themes] galonzo23:
Will this work if I have the correct volume icon, but I am just not able to use HTC volume control? My hardware volume buttons bring up the WM volume control.

I am using the verizon stock WM6.5 ROM w/ sense 2.1.19xx, I installed "DN_dandnj71 Android Taskbar WM6.5 V6 + Black % Battery.cab" along with "Dark Ninja Volume Fix 19xx.cab" (I don't think I even needed it, as I had the correct volume icons to begin with, just not able to use HTC Volume Control).

Any help would be much appreciated, this is by far the best task bar out there! Many thanks to Dark Ninja ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] fmedrano1977:
If your trying to run a percentage battery, icon levels should be set at 101.
[Windows Mobile Themes] fmedrano1977:
try this cab, i edited it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ficano67:
help, start button doesn't work!

I had installed "Dark Ninja White Theme WM6.5.X for my Touch Diamond2 with 6.5. I know, its my fault...

Now the start button (touch on screen) doesn't work...

I can't go to setting tab and so can't remove the application.

Please help me, what I suppose to do?
[Windows Mobile Themes] fmedrano1977:
If when you connect your phone to the cpu, it syncs up still. In activesync, on menu bar, hit tools, then add/remove programs, uncheck the box of what you installed and hit the remove, next, OK button. dont remember exactly what it says.
[Windows Mobile Themes] onkytonk:
Hi there,

Just wondering if there is a QVGA cab with orginal wait cursors?

All the ones I have tried have the android.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] msoccer2:
Installed taskbar on my diamond running WM 6.1 and its great, but it is black. I would like to have the white one. Please help. :o

(sorry if this has been answered before. Didn't read the whole thread)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
I do not believe the white themes are available for 6.1 actually
[Windows Mobile Themes] msoccer2:
Thats unfortunate. Black still looks good though.

Thanks anyway
[Windows Mobile Themes] megaman 2:
Do you have a cab for just the wait curser used (the one you have pictured)?

Also, just the top task bar?

Im using WQVGA but can adjust the files myself if you have them (and tell me where to place them in my windows directory)

Thanks so much for all of your efforts!!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
That would be the taskbar cabs. They don't change anything else
[Windows Mobile Themes] M102:
Works brilliantly! Nice work :)

Looks nice on black themes also... Thumbs up! >.< b
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
It's possible to have a white taskbar, but then you won't see your signal bars because they can't be skinned (at least not properly). So there is no good solution ATM for white 6.1 taskbar, sorry.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
Hi,

When I install you taskbar theme I get a very big dailer keypad?? Is there any fix? I´m on wqvga.
[Windows Mobile Themes] davidgk:
i installed Dark Ninja Android Taskbar WM6.5.x V6.cab . the battery bar always shows full even when low batterry. any idea?
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
That has nothing to do with the taskbar. Are you sure you didn't install anything else?

Did you install SDKcerts? You can also try following this procedure:

If it doesn't help changing the BatteryIconLevels, you can also try changing to 101 or 102.

Remember that you need to do a soft reset after every edit you do in the registry.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
Yes I didn´t install anything else :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] Sulquendi:
I'm in 6.5.5 and my signal icon is not fully skinned :

- When connected (E/H/3G/whatever) -> Skinned

- When in plane mode or no signal -> Skinned

- When not connected & with signal -> not skinned (gradient of grey/white bars on white background. No Dark grey box for theses 1-5 bars)

For the moment i've solved this by modyfing the taskbar white background & adding the grey box in it (Working... But when the taskbar is resized when displayed in landscape mode, it gets ugly)
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
That's because DN may have missed or left out a couple of icons when creating the taskbar. This taskbar consists of hundreds of icons so it's a hell of a job making sure every icon is in every version of the taskbar :p And beware I was referring to WM 6.1 where signal bar icons can't be skinned. They can be skinned in WM 6.5.5.

As you say yourself, modifiying taskbar background is not a fully good solution. It's possible to fix all the icons but I don't think it'll be a prioritized task right now, sorry.
[Windows Mobile Themes] XCipherX:
Your taskbar is great, but i have some issues about some text.

In the taskbar text is white.

Any idea how to fix that?

And I miss some taskbar icons you could maybe put in someday in a update.

1. Touch X Taskmanager

2. USB Icon (When you connect your phone to the PC by USB)

And maybe on the first page.. you could maybe post a picture with all the taskbar icons that comes with the Taskbar so people knows they get the full package.

Other then that im super pleased with your work and it looks really good with the GTX Theme and your white theme :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] jubeh:
I have a request. I'd like this taskbar (and maybe a matching bottom bar with soft-button backgrounds) found on this page, but for the stock 6.5 rom (I don't think it makes a difference, but it's for T-mo US):

http://winphoneblog.com/2010/03/18/android-taskbar-icons-for-windows-mobile/

for the lazy, it's this:

I installed the one available on that site, but it's obviously for 6.5.x, so it doesn't look right.

This thread has now shifted focus and it uses now a white theme but I like the black theme with android sense style icons better.

If not possible, then would somebody point me to a thread where I could learn how to do this (make a taskbar/bottombar theme for 6.5) myself?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
Take a look at DN's other taskbar it is I think the one you are looking for

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=639842
[Windows Mobile Themes] jubeh:
Thank you, I found it in one of the previous pages and was about to edit my post. I'll leave it there in case other people look for it.

Might be a good idea to include a link to the other thread in first post.
[Windows Mobile Themes] gargon01:
Hi guys,

Great taskbar! Would it be possible to get just the new wait cursor (the white one) as a seperate cab or manila file?

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Themes] bachansoo:
is there a way to get only the internal battery icons?
[Windows Mobile Themes] fmedrano1977:
Help..

Can someone point me in the right direction.

Edit: Figured it out.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tunay:
Dude, any possibility to share the gray background?
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
You can find it yourself in the GTX thread (check both the continuation thread and the old thread).
[Windows Mobile Themes] criscrebot:
here we go again

I hope dark ninja can address and fix this problem. During the call, instead of dialer pad, you can see 2 icon of start menu at the bottom. By the way i'm using qvga 2, OS 6.5x.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tunay:
Well, there was a reason why I asked you. I'm not able to find it dude...

The ash from Iceland is make it even harder :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] iceblade997:
thank you so much for posting the WM6.1 version

greatly appreciated
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood your question. You meant the grey start menu background? It is actually the white one but with opacity at (just my wild guess) around 80%. You can set opacity by selecting the wallpaper as today wallpaper from the Album app.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tunay:
I wonder, how to fix the square for my volume icon.

I have tried:

I have a black box on volume FIX.cab - Just restores the stock icon...

Dark Ninja Volume Fix 19XX-20XX.zip - I have tried both. None of them worked for me. The Square is still there.

And, 19XX and 20XX is Manilia versions, right?

And by the way, by software reset, you mean a soft reset or a simple restart?

Thanks...
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Soft reset and restart is the very same thing (turn off and turn on again, alternatively press the red button behind your stylus). What kind of device are you using? You could try the Volume Control hotfix from the BLUdroid thread as well (see my signature).
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tunay:
My signature :D

I use Leo...
[Windows Mobile Themes] andreasb29:
Hi,

is it possible to change the red white Wallpaper into a white one? I´m using a Leo with WinMo 6.5.x
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Ah, I see. Then I guess the volume fix won't work. But it might be worth a shot?

You can change the wallpaper yourself whenever you want like you usually change your wallpaper.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tunay:
You mean that one the "blue" therad?

Yep. Direktelenke her: http://www.4shared.com/file/uq5tVggO/longICE_BLUdroid_Volume_Contro.html

For those who get stuck with WM6.1 and want to have a "somewhat" lighter taskbar (white actually don't work at all), i made this lightgrey-theme.

I don't understand how to do this part, I've looked throughout the phone and haven't saw where to enable it. It's probably very simple, can someone help please?

Thanks

Edit: Oops, I found it. It was very simple! For anyone else confused, you go to settings then click Menu > All Settings at the bottom right. I doubt anyone else is confused though...

Could you please help in editing resource

Hi, I'm using your Android taskbar and it works great except that

- The zoom icon disappear (the left most icon in taskbar popup menu)

- Can we have default wait cursor instead the cute android ?

and could you please provide brief instructions on how to extract dll and edit it, I already know how to use:

- XDA ROM Extractor - I can extract the rom file (shellres.96.dll)

- itsutils's PDOCREAD.exe to dump all rom files, and I can do it without any problems

- imgfs_tools for extract rom files from WM emulator

- Signer and unsigner

- ResHacker

- Resco explorer to copy the file back to \Windows

I have searched XDA on instructions and follow them with caution but still have no luck, after I copy the file back (just shellres.96.dll, that is signed) and then reboot, it seems that icon is not load and can't access start menu. But I can install your Android Taskbar QVGA without any problem.

Steps i've done, please suggest me if I skip something or do something wrong:

1. Extract rom file, shellres.96.dll by XDA ROM Extractor or PDOCREAD

2. Drag the file to UnSigner.exe, the console blink, file size didn't change

3. Open with ResHacker

4. Just save as new file without any modification (for testing first) or replace resource

5. Open siggner.exe and browse to the newly saved dll

6. Process with SDKSamplePrivDeveloper cert

7. check in signing log, no error, dll file size increased a little

8. copy to my device/emulator

9. use Resco explorer to replace the original in \Windows

10. Soft-reset

11. Failure, seems like icon can't load from shellres.96.dll

I tried on:

- WM 6.5 Emulator WQVGA

- My Samsung i900, running with WM 6.5.3

results are the same, failure as I mentioned

Many thankssss in advance,
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
It is possible the zoom was not skinned, though not sure - bear in mind QVGA was put together as requested but not tested as the author didnt have a QVGA device to use

As for editing -

Looks to me like you are following mostly the right steps .though I just pull the dlls from the cabs with WinCE cabmanager, or copy them straight out of my windows folder. what icon are you trying to edit from shellres.96 that isn't working?

Also here is a little guide i looked into http://winmo.techparaiso.com/how-to-create-custom-taskbar-icons/
[Windows Mobile Themes] reversehead:
Thanks for reply, for the zoom, it's ok.

for editing, I'll try using the tools from your link and for icons I want to editing is taskbar icons e.g. sound, etc. but even I do nothing to the dll, just extract and then copy back to \Windows, it failure as I mentioned.

However, I will try every method possible to do, I'll try to extract the dll from White ninja cab and edit it instead of from my ROM and will report the result later.

Many thanks,

You see the both screenshots. The white on one with the red ciccle marks the taksbar. When i tip on it the next screen appears. The black one. Now i will skin it to GTX :D, what else.

How or better on which place i can find the things? It is the shellres.192.dll? You know which icons to change? I stuck here and see no light at the moment. Possible you or someone else can halp out to push me further.

P.S.: Do you have also a working version without the %-battery icon?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Toldo:
Any chance on fixing the wrong display of icons on left small softkey in various situation? In dialer, the keypad icon is replaced by the ok icon, then without a keypad th second bubble flag (win icon) is displayed. Next place is when you get a message, there is no icon on the button where there usually is the reply icon. The same for messages list, there is no delete icon but a list icon instead, which makes two exactly the same icons on the left and right. Quite annoying. These icons are taken from bitmaps, not dlls so i guess it should be easy to fix... Maybe some registry tweaks?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
you are on QVGA right.. those are tougher to troubleshoot and fix since the author and those that have helped do not have QVGA devices to work with
[Windows Mobile Themes] pongster:
That looks like the HTC Notification Enhancement package;)

Which taskbar version has the battery percentage IN the battery icon? Thanks! :)

Solution found:

Didn't read carefully enough. The taskbar images are missing, that's why I didn't find them immediately. If other people are looking for them, they are a mod from dandnj71 and can be found here.

WM 6.1 small signal bar

Hey,

Just a small question, I've been using you're taskbar for a while now, and it really is great. I've also read the complete thread and didn't found a mention of my problem (although I did read something about problems changing the signal strength bars in wm 6.1)

The 'problem' I'm facing is the very small signal bar, in comparison to the rest.

I'll try attaching an image to show what I mean.

As you can see they are not on the same height and much smaller than the rest. When it's looking for a carrier I get a nice looking box with antenna, i was wondering if it was possible to always show that with signal strength in it :)

Or if it is possible change the signal bar color to the same green color as the battery icon.

Also i've noticed some artifacts around the battery icon ? Is this normal ?

Thanks for the help and the fantastic taskbar :D

Please help on how to extract the dll from rom

Hi, Dark ninja or anybody

Could you please tell me which method you use for getting .DLLs from the rom ? (and if possible, please give a brief instruction/link for resource(s) to do so)

Because I already tried every possible methods, XDA ROM Extractor, itsutil, imgfs. and after that I do unsign and then sign with cert. and copy back to my device/emulator, it didn't work, the icon resides in the DLL didn't show up and make my device unusable, I have to delete it to restore from rom and reset, and then it works again.

Even I just extract the DLL by methods I mentioned and then copy it back without any modification, it didn't work either. And I noticed that the size of the file extracted from ROM is not the same (noticed when my device ask me to overwrite the file).

But if I extract the file (shellres) from your cab (Android taskbar QVGA on Post #2), and then unsign and then sign again and copy it manually to my device, it works like a charm. So, I think that the problem of mine is because the method of getting the file from the rom.

Many many thanks in advance and sorry for my broken English.

Hi Dark Ninja,

I have a question im hopeing you know the answer to. Im using WM 6.5 Stock HTC Rom with your 6.5 Android Theme. The theme and taskbar work well, but i cannot get the wallpapers provided on the first post to work aka the White one`s i think it was in a .TSK format. Ive tried overwriting the existing Dark Android white.tsk file and it didnt change the Today and home screen wallpaper it still uses the HTC wallpaper . I tried custom creating a basic white wallpaper for a test and when i apply it to the home screen i lose transparency on the weather icon,calendar and call history.

Am i doing something wrong can you help by any chance?
