I get the 3G symbol no problems there but when it drops to 1x it just says "G" with the same color and everything as the "3G" symbol just drops the 3. If that makes sense to you? Is that how you made this or should it be actually showing the gray 1x symbol? Was just curious more then anything I kinda like it not showing the dreaded gray 1x symbol.

Re: Custom Taskbar

Ok, first off I am a noob & trying to learn as much as I can about the TP2 & how it works. I have successfully unlocked it & installed Mightyrom. I have installed the latest tsowen taskbar6 but still have not seen my phone change to the 3G symbol. I called VZ wireless due to reading a different thread about 3G vs. 1X & tech support indicated that the VZ 3G is the EV symbol. Is this correct? if the phone is saying I am in a EV status, is that actually 3G? I tried to uninstall the taskbar so I could install the sdkcerts cab but I can not uninstall it. I installed the tapres.192.dll for the 3G symbol & the sdkcerts even though I could not uinstall the task bar & now my EV symbol reverted back to the factory format but all other symbols are still tsowens task bar. Did I do something wrong? Can someone please help? I don't want to do the dreaded "hard reset" to correct this problem.

I dont know if this will help you but isnt Mightyrom 6.5? If so did you make sure you installed the correct taskbar for 6.5? If so then I am not sure installing the tapres.192.dll will help you? I installed that on my 6.1 stock rom from VZW because when I installed tsowentaskbar6v2.1(lite) all I had was the "EV" symbol and never got the "3G" symbol. So again I dont know if this will help with 6.5 rom? If thats indeed what you are running now. All I did was installed sdkcerts (soft resetted) installed tsowentaskbar6v2.1(lite) (for 6.1 rom) (soft resetted) then installed the battery cab for 1% increments. When I did all that I had the "EV" symbol so tsowen made that file (tapres.192.dll) so it would show the "3G" symbol. All I did was dropped that file into the windows directory and replaced the original one. As I said not sure if this will all help you but wanted to atleast try to help. I to am a noobie and learning as I go to all this!

Re: Custom Taskbar

Thanks for the reply but yes I did use taskbar6 WM6.5 version, however I doubt the dll got put in the right place. Where exactly do I go to install it? How can I uninstall everything to start over without hard reset? Is there a way to save all of my settings (i.e. ring tone, setting etc.) without having to reset them after a hard reset? It seemed to be working fine except for not having the 3G symbol until I installed the sdkcert cab & the dll.

All I did was use resco explorer and copied and pasted the dll in the windows folder and it asks if you want to overwright it and you just click yes. Soft reset and that was it. I dont think you need to uninstall sdkerts just uninstall the rest and then reinstall everthing then try copy and pasting the dll. You might even be able to drag and drop the dll using your pc in activesync dont know never tried it that way? Just connect your cell to your pc open activesync open explorer my device windows folder then just drag and drop the dll file into the windows folder. This way might work not sure? If not get resco explorer. As far as saving your stuff I use spb backup. You can backup everything or pick what you want. Hope this helps?

Check the file below, I am assuming that Verizon is now showing the 3G icon which is like the Ev icon since you are CDMA and not GSM, if you were GSM it would read the 3G icons out of the phcanOverbmp.dll which are there but I think it is reading the tapres.192.dll which contain the CDMA Ev icons so I have swaped them out with the 3G. Give this a go and let me know if it works or not.

That worked perfectly!!!! Thankyou very much!!!! I appreciate you taking the time and doing that for me!!! Your post has been thanked!!!:cheers:

didnt work for me, im on verizon, mr. x rom

Re: Custom Taskbar

Hi guys maybe someone can help me! I just go the touch pro 2 and unlocked it and then loaded v6.3.1 I believe and when that installs I get a sim unlock notification the only way to get rid of that notification is to uninstall v6.3.1. I have sprint network and would love to use his taskbar. Any help would be grately appreciated. Thanks !!

It would depend on whether or not u have loaded a custom rom, most being 6.5 versions, and you're trying to use a 6.1 taskbar, on the first page tsowen should have a link to 6.5, try one of those.!
