As I have said, those instruction DO NOT WORK on the Sprint Touch. The Sprint Touch uses .brn files as the icons, wheras other phones used .png. In assition, the bmptobrn converter at that forum does not work for the Sprint Touch, as the icons have strange lines through them.

Anyone know how to replace the icons on the Sprint Touch?

As promised, here are the quick-and-dirty instructions for creating Sprint Touch cube icons - no lines!

1. Backup your existing .brn files

2. Create/find your image (any format is ok)

create your image with the correct proportions:

• AL = 119 x 105
• MH = 240 x 105

3. Create a 16 bit bitmap from the image

• Open image with GIMP
• Image -> Transform -> Flip Vertically
• Save As -> Windows BPM image (.bmp) -> Save
• Advanced Options -> 16 bits -> R5 G6 B5 -> Save

4. Modify bitmap file header

• open .bmp image with your favorite hex editor
• delete bytes 0x1E to 0x46
• delete bytes 0x00 to 0x12
• save as .brn file

5. Deploy

• copy .brn to your device
• using a tool like Resco File Explorer, copy the .brn into the windows directory

Here's mine (to go with my G.A.N.T. themes):


Get on it!

*Remember to click OK after each change. Exit Regedit and go back in to verify the change did in fact stick. And most important, Soft reset.

I verified the path works. Make sure to include all \'s, spaces and upper/lower casing.

EDIT- I just thought about this, did you install to Main memory or Card? The instructions above is for Main Memory. If you installed to card, the path will be different.

still not working.
but thanks!

Now you did this on a Sprint Touch? In addition, will this work using Photoshop to save the files as 16bit R5 G6 B5 format?
