Custom Taskbar

[Lylej2k]

Seeing as how the previous thread was getting a little un-organized I've decided to start a thread on customizing the icons for us titan users. I will be updating the first post of this thread to keep us as current as possible.

YOU MUST BE USING OPAL PHONE CANVAS FOR THIS TO WORK. Be aware that 911 does not work with this dialer as of now. that can be found here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...22&postcount=1 again, thanks mikee4fun

To get started, visit this thread http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44293 and follow steps 1, 2, and 3. That will get you the battery and speaker icons. PLEASE NOTE I have not been able to get the % above the battery to display right... for now. I also have a few icons that i have yet to find and resize you can see them in my screenshots in this post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=45451&page=3 post #21

if you dont want the battery and speaker you still have to install sdkcerts.cab which i will post here.

To get the battery to display correctly check your registry and make sure it reads as follows, otherwise your battery will be backwards. (show 17% when you're at 83%)

Make sure your registry says the following:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:65 (Hex) or 101 (Dec)
"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:3e9 (Hex) or 1001 (Dec)
"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"
"BaseId"=dword:0

To get the different signal bars and data icons use the attached cdma_rssi_ppc.dll (this one I have not resized but it displays fine for me.) This is still a work in progress, and I will update when things change.

Credit for the Battery, Speaker, and signal bars goes to the people in the thread I posted above.

For the 1x and ev icons use the attached tapres.96.dll (i know it says tapres.192.dll in the other thread but, on my titan it was 96)

For the bluetooth icons use the attached .zip

Credit for these goes to Mikee4fun

For the messaging Icons use the attached outres.96.dll

Credit for that goes to me i resized all the icons for qvga.

ok here's what you do, IN THIS ORDER
1.)install sdkcerts.cab
2.)Step 2 from this post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44293
3.)Step 3 from this post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44293
You will need to rename the shellres.192.dll to shellres.96 if you want the custom start icon
4.)Copy the 4 items from the bluetooth zip and place them in /windows, and overwrite (you may want to backup the originals)
5.)Copy the tapres.96.dll file from the .zip and place in /windows, overwrite (you may want to backup your original .dll files)
6.)Copy the outres.96.dll file from the .zip and place in /windows, overwrite
7.)Copy the cdma_rssi_ppc.dll from the .zip and place in /windows, overwrite

Soft-reset and you should be good to go.

If you're having problems read through this post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44293 as they have covered alot of little problems. I will also do what I can to help.
