Ahh, thank god lol.. Thanks for the feedback after, i hate it when noone says if its working or not, coz then i have no idea if it worked or not as i'm using wm6.5

Regards and thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] RSchris:
Hi Dark Ninja,

Just to let you know that your fix worked perfectly. Thank you very much for your very fast solution. That's because of people like you that WM still exists, you can be proud, as the community is proud of these greats members.
[Windows Mobile Themes] muzens:
For all the effort you put into this, just thought I would help in a small way, a little feedback and thanks never hurt anyone, lol.

Thanks

:) Agreed
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Thanks a lot! :D

Thanks much appreciated both of you:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
Whoa... Didn't know what happened here...

First, I deinstalled the skin and the volume fix. After that, I installed the new version of the skin (including the volume fix).

But: My E-Mail-Settings and Internet-Settings were gone. Had to renew them... Does anybody else noticed this problem?
[Windows Mobile Themes] muzens:
I had no problems with internet settings or e-mail. I just installed/replaced the new taskbar, everything is good here. :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] beababe:
Any release for WM6.1?? :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] zenkinz:
yes, I used the right version (20xxx), and it breaks the volume overlay (an small overlay layer that shows the volume bar)

so I use the dll in my kitchen, replace the two icons using reshack, and it's now ok. thought I should let you know.
[Windows Mobile Themes] zenkinz:
+1.

prefer the android folder icon.
[Windows Mobile Themes] jegloco:
i installed the taskbar icon for wm6.5 V2, followed by volume fix 19xx...

i still cant see the volume icon in my taskbar...

did i miss something??

please advise.....

regards,

jegloco
[Windows Mobile Themes] gianton:
is the green volume overlay fixed in the wm6.5.x version?
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Hey DN,

as you know from your Android Taskbar thread, I can't keep myself from testing your stuff on WM 6.1 :p

And actually we have pretty much the same situation on this taskbar as we had an the android one: Installing this taskbar works just fine on 6.1 as well! The same issue with the shellres.192.dll is present, though. So what you need to do is to change those very same icons to remove that ugly white square! Icons 4610.ico and 4615.ico...

There is also, as you said, the problem with the gradient background on the taskbar. But there is a possibility of having a gradient background based on colors (as the standard windows mobile themes). I guess you could do that in ThemeGenCE or similar software? Kamil had some knowledge about that...

Alternatively, if you create your icons from png files instead of bmp, you could create them with transparent background? Then you will have no more issues with the squares around the icons on the transparent taskbar (as in WM6.5 start menu) either, and the taskbar will work on all themes...
[Windows Mobile Themes] fr0st420:
Thanks for the update dark ninja. This taskbar is very nice.
[Windows Mobile Themes] pimpol10:
Thanks

thanks so much for the data signal fix!!!excellent!excellent!:d
[Windows Mobile Themes] chino331:
i love the update!!! as the previous post, thanks for fixing the data icon!! awesome job! :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Perfect, Il use yours as the key then! I thought you were tlaking about the taskbar icons, although i realised you wernt talkign about that, il use your post as a reference to first post.. Thanks again, Also about the folder version.. Il do that tonight hopefully if i get time.. regards.

Is there no icon on the taskbar? try this cab

Sorry, i dont quite understand what you mean by the green overlay?

True, I get what your saying here.. Im working on removing the backgrounds but that is really slow at the moment.. stupid me shouldve done that before the release.. So until i do that, il then be able to get a wm6.1 done.. (btw, releasing the wm6.1 version for the android one just now ;))

Thanks and no porbz :D!
[Windows Mobile Themes] longice:
Hehe, yeah that icons editing is a hell of a job :p Looking very much forward to it, though! I saw your release, gonna try the cab right now and post the feedback on the android thread:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Purzelkater:
Uops, you are right - now have V2 installed and volume fix 2012 was the right version. :)

Well, but now I have the problem with the "overlay volume" on Sense music tab. I can change the volume, but only a black box with one black bar I can see. :confused:

However, I like you tasbar... :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
I have the same problem but for me, I can change the volume but no overlay appears.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Fedr0:
Same here. It's not a big issue for me, as I adjust the volume by hearing, but it'd be nice to have it back. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Guys try this tell me if it helps..

[Windows Mobile Themes] chuayw:
thanks alot :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Purzelkater:
Thx for your helb, but the cab has non effect (after soft-reset). :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] bl4ckb1rd:
i modified the cab with WinCeCabMgr and take the HTCVolumeControl.dll out

and add followed registry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay]

"LoadIconFromResDLL"=dword:00000001

so the volume icons will be loaded from other dlland the HTCVolumeControl.dll stay's untouched so the overlay worked as before.

-bl4ckb1rd
[Windows Mobile Themes] Fedr0:
That's interesting, I'll try tomorrow morning as I've just flashed a new rom and I still have to set everything right... :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
I tried that but I already don't see the VolumeOverlay :confused:

(Didn't had any issues with a black bar)

EDIT: Okay, it worked. I just deinstalled the "Dark Ninja Volume Fix 20XX"
[Windows Mobile Themes] Fedr0:
Is it possible to have a .cab just for the waiting cursor? :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
Okay, here's an another contribution to this lovely project.

It's for all user of MS VoiceCommand. I skinned the notification icon to match this theme perfectly. I created two versions: black & green (see screenshot).

Hope you guys like it :)

NOTE:

deactivate VoiceCommand before installing (activate it again after softreset)

didn't test the cabs, please let me know if it works

If they don't install, try the ones from this post:

Is there a way to have the fullsize signal bars instead of having that data arrows and the signal bars? It would be more androidish that way. Or is this just a cdma thing?

VZW 3G Icon

Great work. I am using the Dark Ninja Desire Taskbar WM6.5.x V2 + % Battery and it has resolved all of my needs but 1:

1. Resolved as I have the start menu button when I turn off touchflo3D--great job

2. Resolved a simple strightforward taskbar with a battery meter that is legible--great

job as well

3. Resolved; a tasbar that does not break the HTC Volume dll. Other taskbars that I

have tried always returned me to the old windows version--great job as well

4. Unresolved; Can I you make this same taskbar with the 3G Icon instead of EV? I am

on Verizon and when I am on the stock rom I have 3G but so far all develoepers that

I have found use the EV icon instead; I have tried Tsowen but thus far none of his

have worked to give me all 4 items that I am looking for. Your was the closest as it

of any others that I have tried. As it fills 3 out of the 4

Thank you in advance for your asistance...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Funny, in my other thread people said editing that number to 0 fixed there problem, whereas in this case editing it to 1 did.. As long as it fixed it though.. It just used to enable the overlay.

Unfortunately there isn't as its inside the dll where the other icons are sorry..

Nice ;) i dont really use voice command.. but looking good.

Yeppp its just a cdma thing, normal network bars are the same a smy screenshot in first post.. But once your data connection is on itl change to the arrows and signal bars on top.. If it wasnt like that you wouldnt know when your connected or not? Or am i wrong (no cdma in england :D)

3/4 quite good ey.. although the reason why i did a, EV icons was because the stock one said that, is it 3g/EV for everyone? //:confused: only then can i actually change it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] sqlmotoq:
Yes 3 out of 4 is exceptional:D.. Yes mine is 3G for all of my Verizon phones. I have 3 users in my house and they always show 3G and others I have talked to on Verizon show 3G also. If you can't change for all I understand but maybe a hotfix to update the taskbar for those who have the 3G icon could be a fix as well. If not no biggie as it is not a deal breaker as I can just keep using yours until someone builds one with all 4 items:D:D Thanks for the fast repsonse :cool:
[Windows Mobile Themes] cesium:
I cooked in the WM6.5.x V2 + % Battery bar into my ROM, but for whatever reason the battery icon no longer shows the percent increments.

It showed the % increments when I used the cab to install though.

Any thoughts?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Righty tighty.. Il try encorporate that for you then.. After ive done with my android stuff, il work on this project more..

Hmm, check that the reg settings under HKLM\Security\Resover\Bitmaps

Basedll = phcanoverbmp.dll

BaseID = 0

BatteryIconStart = 1001

BatteryIconLevels = 101

Also the key "BatteryIconLevels = (dword) 65"

BatteryIconLevels = 101

If still doesnt work, check that you have included htc's packages for start icons etc in your rom, i dont know if that was the problem, but it happened to me when i cooked my rom.. The battery icons were stock but after including htc's packages on the taskbar etc, it worked :)

Regards
[Windows Mobile Themes] Fedr0:
Well, I'll check the .dll and take the resources out then. :D

I'm on a TD2 WVGA. Very nice taskbar (using the WM6.5 V2 + % Battery (No Start Icon)), good job, but I have 2 problems:

-When the phone detects multiple networks the wifi not connected icon shows up twice.

-How did you get the time AND clock in the title bar?

can anyone help me, i just installed the taskbar on my HD2, am using Miri's latest 6.5.x ROM. my start-menu won't work any more after installing the taskbar, it will just freeze the device for some seconds when i press start!
[Windows Mobile Themes] kwill:
Couldnt get the cabs to install. Said it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
Okay, try these ones...
[Windows Mobile Themes] tomasz:
Ran into the same problems (Miri 6.5.x V10, steve0007 colored version). Also, the network reception icon doesn't seem to refresh too well. Icon sticks at 'searching' only refreshes to 'in call' when calling and after hanging up, it stays that way.

Start menu not functioning was a dealbreaker for me, so I had to unistall. Graphically, the best looking icons available imho though!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Drakknar:
+1. Same problem here :(

Probably it's because of the new WM build
[Windows Mobile Themes] ArtieQ:
Dark Ninja, do you have any idea why my taskbar gets messed up when I try to change the WiFi icons in my shellres.192.dll? I'm not using your taskbar tho, it's about another one.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
I have no idea why this happened, The files are signed properly now :confused:, Il take a look, it seems to be consistant in miri's roms.. What version of his rom are you using?

Could be two problems, either its a damaged dll, or the files aint signed properly... What i normally do is, save the dll as .res in reshacker, then get another working dll and "update resources" then sign (also remember to unsign before). If you still need help, PM me..
[Windows Mobile Themes] ArtieQ:
I don't know if it's a sign problem, I always unsign before I edit the .dll and resign it when I'm done. Well, I will pm you about it, I also have another request, can I take that there too?

For people having issues with htc green volume overlay not working in manila 2.5.2012, i have made a HTCVolumeControl.dll from my 6.5.x build 23549 rom. now everything is working great with this taskbar!

[Windows Mobile Themes] Purzelkater:
Okay, maybe I'm to stupid but how I can fix the overlay problem on Sense 2.5.2012 music tab? :confused:

I have installed:

Dark Ninja Desire Taskbar

Dark Ninja Notification Fix (deutsch)

Dark Ninja Volume Fix 20XX

Dark Ninja Volume Fix

Lycox HTC Hero Task- and Softkeybar

Everything works fine expect the volume overlay on music tab. I've tried to replace the htcvolumecontrol.dll and change the reg as seen in this thread but no effect. :(

Well, the Dark Ninja Volume Fix 2012.cab fixed the volume icon on the taskbar but not the problem on music tab.

Okay, one other little issue I've found: If the phone is establishing a wifi (wlan) connection, I can see the modified wlan icon on the taskbar but this will replaced with the radio strength bars icon until wlan is connected.

volumefix 20XX cab makes problem on xperia

after installing that i suffer from not working hardware volumekey

i made my own

if anyone experienced a same trouble.. try this out:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
Try this:

Deinstall

Dark Ninja Volume Fix 20XX

Dark Ninja Volume Fix

Then check

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay]

"LoadIconFromResDLL"=dword:00000001

if it's already set to "1". If not, set it to "1".

This worked for me.

Im gna fix all the volume problems, i found a walkaround so once i update it no more volume problems. :D

Ok I'll be waiting for your update really want to use your taskbar so badly...i'll just have to wait....:confused:

Great. I will wait. I uninstall it as the signal bar refuse to show signal strength and after tweaking the reg, the media volume overlay work but break my hd2 windows hardware key function.
[Windows Mobile Themes] disflipissofresh:
what about the signal bar? Instead of 4, can you make it into 5 so we know that we have a full bar?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
yeah, instead of installin a new dll, i found a way to just not include it and use registry instead. So your rom volume stuff will stilll be intact

actually, its supposed to show 5 bars, althou i have no idea why it doesnt. Im looking into it now.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bgcngm:

The green icon that appears when a call is in place is a little messed up with the network bars...
[Windows Mobile Themes] tsalta:
Hello i have question.

All work for me on my Balckstone also the volume work but i have one problem for example always when i open SPB Radio after close it the volume key not work anymore lol.. after Soft Reset the volume work again but all the time i use SPB Radio always stop to work.

My question is do this is from the Taskbar and the fix? i install 19XXX because im with this version of HTC Volume or its caused by some conflict with the application?!

About the Signal Bars is the same here always SHOW 4 full Bars the last Bar is always empty:)

About the Wait Animation is SUPER SUPER COOL i love it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BUMP THAT:
i really like the taskbar for 6.5.x im usin it now. but i dont like the android icons under the taskbar when u tap it, i want to put the windows ones. how can i do that?? or can u help me please?

these icns here with the clock and batter and wutnot.... i juss got my 6.5 lol

basically i want the taskbar with the default icons for the status indicators.

i installed Dark Ninja Desire Taskbar V2 WM6.5.x
[Windows Mobile Themes] Sultan1993:
i saw somewhere your taskbar, but in white color, and i can't remember where..do you have that taskbar?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Hmm, wierd, i think i know why thats happening and it'l be fixed in the new version coming.

Hmm, did that problem persist without the taskbar installed? a user showed me a new way of not overwriting the Volume dll, but using the icon. So int he next release there wont be any more problems with volume as i'm not going to be replacing that dll.

I just made a four bar version in fact (because the desire version actually has 4 bars) see the screenshot.

Hmm il see if i can do that for u although itl be afterwards. coz too many versions are confusing me and they look a right mess like my other thread .. sorry .. But if u pm me il try get back to you with that version.

Here?

@All making a white version(ish) for this.. Heres how it'l look as ive seen a few people using it witha white background but it dont look good due to no background on the signal bars. But heres how it'l look.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BUMP THAT:
ok thank u!
[Windows Mobile Themes] tynpcya:
Help Please!

I downloaded the taskbar w/ start button v2 for 6.5, but it doesn't show the clock with it!

Also, there is this blank black box on the taskbar to the left of the battery.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dalek_Caan:
6.5 is not supposed to have a clock in the taskbar that is 6.5.x. The black box is the volume icon check in the start of thread for fix.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Cypher84:
Want to say thanks to Dark Ninja awesome work. I have been using the 6.5.x taskbar for ages now and its still far and away the most slick and polished and goes back on my phone after every rom flash!
[Windows Mobile Themes] tynpcya:
It said the volume icon was fixed in March 17th ish. I can't find the cab for it...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
As dandnj said you cant get time and battery for 6.5 unfrotunately.. for backbox issue install this

thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] tynpcya:
Thanks it worked. =)

I was also wondering (its optional) can you make one for the bottom part (w/o those bubble buttons)? Same bar. (I like consistency) and change the sound to something like the other icons?

(OPTIONAL) you don't have to do it if you don't want to.
[Windows Mobile Themes] BUMP THAT:
another question lol

is it possible to disable the top bar transparency? it looks kinda odd with light backgrounds. see attachment
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Il try find something better for the sound icons, although the desire ones are the ones i have used atm. As for the bottom bar that one is not my work, but im probably (no plans yet) going to make a black type of theme like this so stay tuned.

Yeah i know what your saying.. Thats why ive put a background on signal abrs and the ones without also (see pic form my post above) so its consistent, although i dont know if its possible to remove transparency :^) il see though.

Regards
[Windows Mobile Themes] BUMP THAT:
Got it, so where do i get that signal abrs then? :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] tynpcya:
Mine for some reason is the same old 6.5 volume button. It didn't add the desire one.
