I want something simple with only change really being the green battery with 1% increments. Is there anything like this one that works well with 6.5. I have it working fine with my only problem is that it shows the quickgps icon when my data connection is inactive.

Speaker and Battery Icon
The Speaker and Battery Icon's are located in the phcanOverbmp.dll file. The following are the steps to change your battery icon and speaker Icon out and to also give you the battery percentage.

1. First install the sdkcerts.cab
2. Install Taskbar%20Icons%20v2.cab
3. Install darklord battery metre v2_fixed.cab
4. To have your battery meter give you actual % such as 33% instead of in increments of 10 install nuePowerDriverCDMADiamond-100-v1.0-cab.cab updated 11/13/08
5. To fix the battery % either use a registry editor and change the settings as posted below or install FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.zip (no need to do both) updated 11/11/08
6. To fix the little font when you click the speaker icon install HTCVolumeControl.dll in the attachment below (Thanks opuscroakus) updated 12/5/08

I really only wanted the battery changed, but if not this one from 6.1 looks decent, anything similar to this work with 6.5?

Except for the Start icon (want HTC icon) everytying on this taskbar is what I'd like to have on my new TP2. This is the task bar I was using on my TP before I got my TP2 and really loved it. I'm new to wm6.5 and TP2 so if someone could cab up this taskbar for the TP2 on 6.5 (not 6.5.x) that would be fantastic!

Thanks,

I modified this taskbar to show the EV icon.

I am not the creator of this taskbar, I just made an EV icon to kind of go with it. It should work with 23075 and 23081 WM 6.5.1 builds. I have only tested on dcd 2.30 and has been working fine for me.

Received a PM today asking me if the only way to get help or something made was by donation, the answer is No. Donations are much appreciated but are not required from me. When I first started this it was because I enjoy doing this and still do. I am sorry that I have not been around much lately its due to primarly work. Things are slowing down and almost to the point to where I can jump back in here and start making new taskbars and monitor the questions more often but please do not feel as if I am waiting on a donation to help you or create something. I try to do it as time permits. If I have promised you something or you need something please shoot me a PM reminding me of what it is.

I am working on converting my taskbar 3 updated version to WM 6.5.1 so please be patient and it will be out soon.

Also donations go towards software that help me create these taskbars or images for those who are wondering where any of the funds goes towards.

Any new updates coming? The thread below made it sound like you were able to get the software with all of the donations you received. It'd be great to see some new stuff.
