You're best off just using Restorator 2007 and replacing the icons in the 6.5.1 build you want to do. It's pretty simple using Restorator since you can drag and drop icons in/out of the dll's. What SYS are you running? Check out the gadgetrom thread in the diamond forum here. I think someone (bikeandestroyx?) put them in one of the 6.5.1 SYS. The thing is, you seem to have to do it with each new build. If you don't, you end up with buttons on the bottom bar missing text and other problems since MS is changing lots of stuff with each build.

Thnx mate, but I've not found the thread about that you speak. I've a 23060 build version. Thnx for all.

PS : Excuse if my english is a little bad

I installed the 6.5 taskbar but the battery icon shows that its charging all the time even when unplugged ?

ok fixed that issue but the battery icon is off by a few % from the system. The icon shows 46% while the system shows 50%..

Here is my latest task bar. What you are getting is a sneak peak of my soon to be released GadgetROM. This VGA, CDMA only for now. I'll get around to a GSM version as soon as I have the time. Let me know what you think! Thanks to Riley05 and Rusty Duck for some preliminary testing. And thanks to Bilbobrian at XDA for the battery layout, and Tsowen for the icon base.




5-9-09 Update: Here is the conversion of my Round Taskbar theme to WM 6.5. Just Download and install the attached cab. After you've installed SDKCerts, of course...

Note, If you are using the Topaz Notification Enhancements, you can install that cab to get a skinned Notifications manager.

One thing to note, I am in all likelihood abandoning skinning the HTC Large Title bar due to all of the distortion issues, etc. Since I am runing Rhodium TF3D and WM 6.5 now, I am just going to concentrate on those features that are still actively being deployed by MS and HTC. It seems the LTB is going to go away soon...


6-9-09 Update:

Here is a preview of what I'll be posting in the next couple weeks. Right now, this is exclusively available in Drybonz' Bear-Bonz ROM for the Sprint Diamond.

6-10-09 UPDATE:

Due to Drybonz ending development of his Bear-Bonz ROM, I am going ahead and releasing the custom taskbar early. For right now, this is CDMA only, and is geared to someone running Rhodium since it has the dll and icons for the new Notifications Manager included. It won't hurt your phone if you aren't running Rhodium, but it will eat up some space...

I am working on the GSM icons now and hope to have something done by the end of the weekend. The current battery is by Misfortune for his TB v2 and is included and modded with his permission. I am actually looking at changing the battery, too, so, ahem, bear with me on that... .

Also, as usual, all the usual provisions apply: Back-up your device, install the SDK Certs cab, make sure you have the nuepower drivers installed (or the battery will not display properly...) etc, etc...

If you are a ROM chef and wish to use any of my taskbars in your ROM, just please PM me and let me know.

6-14-09 UPDATE:

Thanks to Indagroove, the Bear-Bonz Custom taskbar will now work with GrooveROM and Mighty Mike's ROMs. This version includes the revA icon and a few other tweaks.

I have also finished and uploaded the GSM version of the Bear-Bonz Taskbar as well! Enjoy!

Dear Sir,

I've installed your GadgetFreak Custom Taskbar on my Touch Diamond 2 . I would like to know how to uninstall it to my default taskbar.

Thanks.

Maybe I am having a search brainfart, but is anyone customizing the bottom bar for the newer 6.5 builds (23069)? The only one that I found was Brock's and I have been searching for the last couple of hours.

I have seen quite a bit around but you have to look closly.
I know there is a couple on these threads, but I would start searching backwards...

Attached is a cab from Joojoobee666 for build 23034(QVGA) but it should work fine on 23069(QVGA)... Its a start anyways

Edit:
Attached are the extracted Icons for the start button, OK and cancel...
Just drop into your windows folder...

I'll look through those two threads, thanks for the file, but I am on a Touch Pro.

Edit: I found the VGA version of the file you posted, thanks. WOW, there are a lot of attachments in that thread!
