The signal icons work differently in 6.5.
You have one icon file for the antenna icon, and the signal bars are rendered separately. Dig around in shellres, you'll see an antenna icon, and a set of signal bar icons without anything attached to them.
The signal icons start at 5092 in the shellres.192.dll, and go till 5096. Something interesting - there is 7-bar support there. I'm guessing there's a registry entry somewhere to enable it... but it wouldn't fit well as 5 bars barely fits before colliding with the speaker icon. I'm sure MS is still going to change this.
The only icons you need to change are:
4675 (antenna icon)
4676 (phone icon)
4941 (data connected)
I noticed after this though, that while in call, I was still on the old icons. So then, in phcanOverbmp.dll, change the following to the phone icon + signal bars:
68 (no bars)
155 (1 bar)
156 (2 bars)
157 (3 bars)
158 (4 bars)
There aren't icons present for 7-bar support in this file.
