Weather icons for s2u2 v0.9x or more

Enjoy !
Any more?

THANK you very much

htc Weather icons.
These have been cropped to 48px wide x 32px high, in order to fit on the current version .97
To put larger icons on screen, the app would need to place them using their top-left pixel as a locator, which I don't think it currently does.
Anyway, these work as they are:

and Medweather 23x23
There are tons on the SBSH site but you'll need to use Photoshop to batch convert them to png filetypes and keep the transparency.

One more.
Enjoy

Hi. First of all, don't judge me, because I'm new here.
My question is: How do I change the weather icons. I moved them to the weather files in gfx in S2U2 file. Soft-reseted, not nothing. My source of weather informations is SPB weather... CAN YOU HELP ME...
THANKS.

I also encounter the same problem. I overwrite the weather png files in s2u2 folder and the weather icons is gone on s2u2.

If your sourc is spb Weather...
these icon won't work.
spbWeather uses a single bmp file with a transparency channel laid alongside the icon images.
Pocket Weather and Weather Panel use individual icons.
For more spbWeather icons, you can go here:

You'll need to register to download them

Hi,
my sourceweather program is HTC Home but i'm not be able to use this icon set.
Can you give me some suggestion ?
Thank's in advance...

Once I've downloaded the icons I like to have from there, I noticed inside the zip file for the themes within Spb weather it shows two lines of icons side by side in a single bmp file how would I go about making these show on S2U2?
Thanks in advance

They should be in the gfx\weather folder
and it should just show, as long as you've selected spb as your weather source in the S2U2 Settings application.

So I should just copy the zip files over into gfx\weather or should I extract them first?

The file called...
weather.bmp should be extracted and inside the \gfx\weather folder
If you're i8n any doubt, uninstall S2U2 and re0install from the .cab file. All files will be re-instated in their corect positions, including the spb icons

If you use HTC Home Customizer you are able to add a new iconset to the HTC Home Plugin. Some of the downloaded iconsets will also change the icons used for S2U2. Don't know why, but it works!

How to change DEFAULT TouchFlo 3D Background? (NOT SETTINGS WALLPAPER!)

How do you change the DEFAULT TouchFlo 3D Background? I know that there is an app that will make your wallpaper display on all tabs but that is not what I want. I do not want to change the wallpaper through settings.
I want to change the DEFAULT Background in TouchFlo 3D.
Does anybody have any idea how to do this?
Side note - Also, I managed to figure out how to get back the Top and Bottom Curtains. You can find my cab file to install them in my post below(#5).

Does nobody know what that manila file(s) is called? Or possibly have it(them) handy so that I can make a cab file?
Please all help is appreciated!

I'm amazed that after several hours of posting this, nobody knows what this manila file is called... All you theme makers out there do you have any idea at all or does everyone just throw in images and hope for the best?

I think that's the bottom curtain - 1864da05_manila.

Thank you!! Finally someone answered me. You the man!!
EDIT: That was it! Made a cab file, disabled manila, installed the cab, re-enabled manila and beautiful it has become once again!
Thanks again man.
EDIT AGAIN... That file worked, but only for all tabs but home. Strange...
The following cab file includes:
1876f286_manila
1864da05_manila
18c460d8_manila
It will give you the Black Top and Bottom Curtains but the bottom curtain will only work on all tabs but home.
I will continue in my venture to solve this problem and when I finally do I will re-post the cab in it's complete form.

No mater what i try i just cant seems to change the icon for the above mentioned although under SK he icons are changed.
Can someone pls enlighten me where i went wrong?

Are these icons also available in VGA? For QVGA these are great but I think a lot of users are now using VGA devices so for us, these icons won't work for us.

thanks for sharing
Can sk shortcut manager change the icons of spb ms3 launcher?

Icon Size
Is there a way to get bigger icons?
I tried to enlarge them with psp and replace them with reshack.
That doesnt work. The icons stay small.
In MS3 bigger icons would look better to me.
Maybe that is a setting MS3?
Eric

HI,
Can anybody explain to me how I can change the Icons on my Omnia using the SK Shortcut Manager and the dlls from the first post?
How can I assign them to a certain icon or is this just automatically assigned by choosing the dll file in SK Shortcut Manager?
Many THX!

I use WinCE cab manager to add/remove image files in the theme
but every theme has a ".tsk" file that determines the background, top bar, bottom bar colors, and sizing of tabs..etc
my question is how to edit the TSK file.. i used ThemeGenCE before with WM 6.1 but when i use it now with WM 6.5 i am able to change the background but all other stuff gets messed up
any theme editor for TSK files that work with 6.5?? (keeping top & bottom bar untouched?)
Thanks

Yeah, double-click the TSK, man!

S2U2 Optimus clock + weather W(Q)VGA

Browsing through the 4pda.ru forum i found a nice optimus weather and clock for S2U2 posted by JambazZi and decided to use it on my device. Sadly, weather widgets were not numbered correctly and they were a bit too stretched with a distorted appearance, so i thought i'd make one of my own straight from the original optimus widgets and share it with you guys. After applying the files to gfx folder, set clock alignment to the left, choose option 1 time format and set today's weather forecast to Touch Flo 3D. Lang file provided in the folder contains the modification to DefaultTimeFormat1, needed for the clock to be aligned with the weather widget. I named the clock clockD but you can replace any clock you want or add it as a new clock as long as you modify the lang.ini file. Remember to save file in UNICODE when modifying the lang file and don't save it as text, but "all files" option. Thanks to 4pda.ru & xda-developers member Yurik , who provided me with the original optimus widgets. You can use any wallpaper you like, weather widgets' canvas is transparent. Here's a few screenshots, if you like my work, just hit the thanks button
P.S. Please backup your weather, lang.ini file and clock if you are replacing one of your previous clocks, in order to get back to your initial settings if something goes wrong. Safest way is to edit your personal lang.ini file to have this line, instead of using my lang.ini file, cause you might have different settings for slider, text, etc: s_DefaultTimeFormat1=______':'HH__':'mm
Thanks to torickray who modified the weather icons you can now use it with IPTweather too. Just download his weather files from here
Thanks to bismuth89 for providing (w)qvga version. Download qvga files from here and wqvga from here
S2U2 Optimus weather-clock

Could you develop a wqvga version?
thanx

im not sure where did i get wrong...
i copied the weather and clock files and paste it on gfx...replace the lang to your lang....and set it up all but nothing happen.

Did u set the time format to option 1 and choose clock font folder clockD ? Clock alignment must be set to left. Are you using Touch Flo 3D ? Did you update weather in Touch Flo ? Make sure you actually replaced the files and not just adding mine and leaving the originals there. Delete the original weather folder and the original clockD folder and then copy mine in the gfx folder. Also delete the lang settings and then copy mine. Make a backup of your files first, in case you want to get back to your settings.

Unfortunately i only own a Blackstone which is WVGA, but JambazZi from 4pda.ru has a wqvga version, you can use his and see if it works well on your device. Here are the files. The lang file is in russian, but you can modify your lang file, instead of using his. All you need to do is modify DefaultTimeFormat1 to the one in his file and add a new clock to option 6 called optimus, i think his clock is called optimus. Or just rename clock to one of the already existing clocks clock/, clockD, clockS, whatever. Hope that helps. His WVGA didn't work for me. If it was shiny outside, i got a windy widget. Maybe his wgvga version is numbered correctly. Try it and let me know, if icons are not numbered correctly you might need to rename them to suit the actual weather outside.
P.S. @ mad_a_22 : read your private message on the forum.

Is your phone WVGA ? Post a screenshot please. You might need to resize the weather icons to fit the screen. The weather is designed to be used with Touch Flo 3D, guess it might work with other weather tools as long as it is scaled correctly. What weather program are you using ?

Yes, WVGA - OmniaII. I'm using IPTweather, mort scripts to modify registry. Maybe you have right, that modification of icons are needed.

I haven't used any third party weather application in S2U2. Send me a link to the icon pack you used before and a screenshot to see where exactly they were positioned, i might be able to edit the optimus icons to appear correctly for your IPTweather tool.

It's hard for me to guess the exact size of the icons used by other weather applications and where exactly they appear on your screen, since i only used HTC default weather i made the icons to fit to the weather provided by the TouchFlo. You should try and crop or enlarge the icons' canvas in order for the clock to appear in the white panels.

ahhh, it's beautiful! weather images look great on HD2, thank you, Sp1tfire! but there's one problem with time, digits are moved to the left more then they have to be. check it out on the screenshot. I've made everything in settings according to the first post. how can I fix this?

Time format should look like in the screenshot below and lang file must contain this line:
s_DefaultTimeFormat1=______':'HH__':'mm

Sp1tfire,
yes, that was the problem.. thank you. I've copied lang.ini to gfx folder together with clock and weather images.. such a shame..
but now something new appeared, see the screen, please. It's concerning lang.ini, as far as I understand, but I haven't backuped the old one to correct yours.

Hmm, i don't use the text in these 2 lines in my lang file.
s_CS2UText=
s_S2UText=
Mine it's blank. Probably original S2U2 text was "slide to unlock" for s_S2UText and "unlock" for s_CS2UText (without quotation marks)

typed "unlock", made some settings changes, now everything is on it's places , looks perfect! you ROCK! thanx!
