What could be wrong and is there a solution.

Thanks

What's wrong is you used an old shellres.192.dll (or other .dll with the icons in it) with your custom taskbar. They add/change icons in the shellres, etc. with many of the new 6.5.x releases, so you have to update it for just about every new build (it seems like anyway).

I got an Imagio back in October,while waiting for the HSPL I have been trying to mod my taskbar. I have found that I can load tsowens 6.5 and others, they look to work correctly. If I try to mod an Imagio original dll or those medded by others, the Imagio will not display my updated dll images. I have the updated msigner with current certs. Anyone bumped into this? I have researched this for two months now and I can not find anything I am doing wrong.

Jason25, If this was directed to me, I have all of the tools as laid out by tsowen and others, I have checked and rechecked my process and tools. My previous phone was an Elf where I was able to mod the dll's to my satisfaction.

I also use romextractor to get the dll's off the phone.

sorry robo that was for vin255764. for your situation why not just replace the images in the working modded taskbar? I am using a tsowen taskbar but the task manager button is still stock so I am going to fix that when I get time.

I had problems with this too and realized I had to do a copy and paste, "copy to" doesn't work.

jason25,
Well, I have tried that. I installed a taskbar from tsowen, this appears to work just fine. Pulled the HTCVolumeControl.dll back out. unsigned it, used reshack to extract the images. Used Imageforge to mod the images, reshack to move the images back into the dll. Ran msigner on the dll. On my Imagio I renamed the dll, soft reset then moved my dll into Windows, soft reset, power off..................

When the imagio starts up I do not have my images or tsowens for the volume. It reverts to the stock images.

I have noticed that if I try this with a stock dll from my imagio when I unsign the file the file size does not decrease. If I continue the process with this file I get the same results.

Maybe I need to wait for cmonex and conflipper, then dump the VZ garbage.
