WARNING: installing this taskbar implies a risk of rendering your taskbar inoperable (especially if you have a stock rom on your device), which leads to impossibility to access the start menu to remove it. To avoid this, go to post #3, read it and install the attached cab.
JUNE 20 UPDATE: added new cab -Alecs WP7 Taskbar V2.0- built with HD2 files. This cab works both on WM6.5 and 6.5.X and on most devices (theoretically). This time I added CDMA and other specific icons. You'll notice that all the icons in V2.0 have rounded corners (this suits better with the actual skinning trends on XDA). To get the volume icon working, download Volume Fixes V2.zip and install the appropriate cab inside. Please note that is still in TESTS! And don't forget to post your feedback!

Built for HTC devices! Chances for this to work on other devices
(Toshiba, Samsung, Asus etc) are small.
After almost 4 weeks of work on this project I managed today to finally take out the first cabs. I'm pretty sure this is gonna look good on your phones, it does on mine. Though I don't particularly like WP7 themes, I must agree that their light blue tone really looks good on a pitch black background, so I decided to set this blue-square look on the taskbar.
INFO (read carefully)
This is a work in progress! Some icons (not many) are not skinned yet; further skinning is scheduled, but for now my work focuses on adapting the icons for W/QVGA. CDMA users will have to wait a few days for an updated cab, as I did not had the time (and patience) to draw the cdma icons for this release. Some of the icons were created by modifying images available on the web, thus credit goes to their authors. Please, do not post questions like "Will this work on my X device?", just try at your own risk and find out if it does; it's hard for me to know the effects of these cabs on different roms and devices. Due to the current rom abundance it's impossible to create an universal taskbar cab file and to make all users happy. I cannot be held responsible for any eventual damage or disfunctionalities following the installation of my cabs.
HOW TO INSTALL
1. If you have a custom taskbar installed, uninstall it first and reboot.
2. Download and install the cab that matches your OS (WM 6.5 has the start icon on the upper-left corner, WM6.5.X has the start icon on the bottom-left corner), then reboot. Though the cab contains the certifications, it's safer for you to first install sdkcerts.
3. For WM6.5.X- after the installation there's a chance your volume icons won't get skinned (or the volume area will not respond to touch). In this case you must identify your version of HTCVolumeControl.dll (you can find it in the Windows folder using Resco Explorer or Total Commander, but be sure you uncheck the "Hide hidden files" option first). Then download the appropriate VolumeFix cab from post #2, install it and perform a reboot.
First release: 22.05.10

- Alecs WP7 Taskbar V1-WM6.5.X W/VGA

V1
V2
Currently skinned icons:
-signal
-volume
-battery
-notifications (sms, mms, missed calls etc.)
-alarm
-wifi
-GPRS, EDGE, 3G and HSDPA icons and connecting animations
-activesync
-headset, BT stereo headset
-start icon
-flight mode, GPS, no SIM etc etc.
Other Icons:
- Custom wait cursor (used temporary): the standard WM cursor switched to light blue.
- Custom system folder icons (icon is from a shared icon archive here on XDA. Whoever the author is, I thank him). If you don't like this icon, uninstall the taskbar and go back to the old boring folder icons
- Custom icon for .exe files (that don't have their own icon)
TO DO:
-nothing; this project is currently on hold and no further updates scheduled.
Special Thanks to:
Shahab2500, for his testing activity and feedback.
djcedric, for allowing me to use and modify his nice speaker icons
DarkNinja, for his great wait cursor (not used in this release though)
Other users who did a great job with their taskbar projects (dafunk, Brians, Dinik, ArtieQ and so on)
Ascary, Phenomen, Steff195, Khosty and other people who encouraged this project.
All people who like and use this taskbar.
If you like this project and wanna see it grow, don't be shy and press the donate button . I do this for fun, but any contribution is appreciated.
HTCVolumeControl.dll versions:
In order to prevent the imposibility to access the start menu and reach the "Remove programs" option to uninstall my taskbar if it didn't work for you (and your taskbar disappeared), install the attached cab. It sends a shortcut to start menu in your start menu (sounds weird I know), so you can place this shortcut as a sense quicklink (see the screenshots). This way you'll still be able to go to start menu if your taskbar doesn't respond.
HD2 users can remove my taskbar by going to Programs Manager via Sense 2.5 settings tab.
Note: I'm not the author of the exe file used in this cab (this exe opens the start menu), and unfortunately I can't remember who the author is. But the credit goes to him, whoever he his.

me either... thx, n' i already used nickshot 4 a month ago
Looks really nice bro, I'll give it try!
Edit - Unsuccessful here on my HD2 running Miri's v17.0 Rom. Made sure I had the sdkcert installed then installed the 6.5.x cab and the only icon that shows up is the Bluetooth icon. It did not render my device inoperable though so I was able to uninstall without issue.
Not working on my HD2 German Stock ROM 1.66.407.1.
All taskbar icons disappear and I can't access start menu after installing this.
Uninstall worked at least.
Oh, @Etihad, I forgot to mention that this is for WWE roms only. I'll update the first post with this info. However, there is a fix for this, read below:
gfreek said:
Known issue with some ROM’s when installing this taskbar:
The start logo, signal and other icons do not change this is because this taskbar works well with WWE ROM’s that call on the taskbar file shellres.192.dll in windows folder for these icons, if you are using a ROM that calls on shellres.192.dll.0409.mui if it’s English ordepending on the language you have on your ROM that 0409 number could be different example 0410 etc...then not all the icon’s will change!!!
This can be fixed after installing this taskbar go to windows folder of your device and you should see these 2 files shellres.192.dll and shellres.192.dll.0409.mui first rename shellres.192.dll.0409.mui toshellres.192.dll.0409.mui_z andthenrename the shellres.192.dll to shellres.192.dll.0409.mui in the windows folder of your device using either Total Commander or Resco File explorer soft reset that should do the trick! If this sounds complicated then post here with the name of that file in the windows folder of your device example shellres.192.dll.0409.mui or whatever it is then I can post a cab fix here!

(Gfreek's original thread HERE).
Very nice looking. thanx.
awesome
this is awesome. looks great. waiting for a qvga version.
also your avatar is also a good one.
felicitari
felicitari @alecs, arata super...astept cab-ul pentru cdma!!
Thanks for appreciation guys, it means allot after all this hard work.
QVGA version is coming soon; almost all icons were resized, but some of them must be build from scratch, as resizing makes them too blury.
Two thumbs up!
Very glad to see your work here. As we spoke on other forums, I can hardly wait to test the WQVGA version, and maybe include it in my roms, with your permission, of course (but we already discussed about that ). But, you don't have to rush this, just take your time and get the best of it.
I could use the blue WP7 style cursor also on my Omnia.
Until then, two thumbs up!
QVGA Version
Taskbar looks great with your icons. Eager to see the QVGA version for installing on the phone.
imax98
it didn't work well on my omnia 2 wm 6.5.3
only the time appears..
Omnia, Omnia 2 and other non-HTC devices have different dll structure, so it's normal for this to not work on these devices. I updated the first post with this info. I'm working on a dedicated cab for Samsung Omnia, but I can't promise anything for Omnia 2 (different resolution, different dlls, allot of work for replacing all the resources).
To those who try the cab and it doesn't work, please specify:
- your device
- your ROM (6.5, 6.5.X, build, version, author)
- the nature of the problem (taskbar dissapearance, misalignments etc)
.
Great job. Works perfect on 6.5.x Nrgz ROM! Congrats!
i guess i made a right action when i specify my device.
i'll wait for an update on my device....this taskbar looks cool actually.
nice taskbar

If you have a gsm touch pro, then you can flash NRG's rom with it. There's some oem's available for cooking your own rom, but they haven't been resized at all that I know of.(still wvga instead of vga)
did you change the notification bubbles? for texts and emails and such
not yet but it surely will be done..
as showaco said you can flash an NRG rom
anyway, im gonna start doing some progress right away..i think i make the selections a bit darker. When i pump up the light on my phone it looks a bit more grey than black, so i'll fix that
i will update the first post soon with exactly what has been modified

I present to you the Shadowline Series. The roms I make are made to be cutting edge, using the latest in Windows Mobile and HTC with a mix of my own taste in graphics, tweaks, and fixes.
Because the purpose of this rom is to be cutting edge, not everything will always work as intended at all times, and that is where you come in at. I need all of you to test, and report back on what needs fixing, tweaking, or even suggestions for newer versions.
This rom, can not, and will never brick your device, unless you do not read the instructions or do something that you aren't supposed to do.
The latest HardSPL is always recommended as that is what the rom will always be based on.
If I do not implement a feature or a request, It is because it will not work, will break the intended design, or it will be worked in at a future time. But I do encourage feedback on everything as you are the ones using it, you should be the ones that have a say in it.
I personally do not own any version of the Rhodium/Touch Pro 2, so all testing will be done by you. So please do report bugs you may get!

Explanation of WiFi tweak:
When WiFi is enabled in Comm Manager, and you have already previously connected to a wireless point, your Windows Phone when a Data connection is needed will automatically turn on WiFi, and connect to the nearest preset access point. If no access point is nearby that has been set up, your Windows Phone will automatically turn WiFi off again, and connect to your local Wireless Service 3G or GPRS network. While connected to WiFi using this method, if the connection is no longer needed, or the phone is put into standby it will automatically turn WiFi off to preserve battery.

*** Rom Release***
Hello everyone, This is the first release in the new Rhodium version of my rom series.

Also if you can, take screenshots of anything and everything.
Bugs to test for in this version: (this does not mean they ARE there, but they have a possibility to be due to the inability to test myself.)
Anything with WiFi, bluetooth, or phone.
Video playback,
Camera,
FM Radio,
GPS,
Apps besides Manila not working fully in landscape,
Graphical Bugs.
This version includes:
Windows Phone build 23060
Build 23420 Contacts Manager

Update:
Now has a newer Manila and all other HTC packages. Take a look!
NOTICE: A soft reset IS REQUIRED after the first successful boot to get everything working properly.
<|Download Manila 2.5 Version Now|> *UPDATED again!*
error message
it looks very nice but upon install there is a large error message about copilot live on the screen
Hmm, there is no copilot included... how odd..
error
I'm sorry-I should of been more specific. It says windows can't find copilot file
same here i am having that error on my screen for 5 min i reset the PDA hope it will boot up.... can boot the pda but the error still on the screen...
Shadowline: Did you remove copilot from the ConfigAP file as well while cooking?
I ran into this yesterday as well. I haven't loaded your ROM though, but I guess it's the same issue.
You need to change the file:
<Your Kitchen Dir>/OEM/Rhodium/0409/ConfigAP.txt
And remove the copilot line. Then the ROM will boot up fine.
i cant launch the touch flow 3D so i cant go to the settings... cant stop the error from the task...
i reloaded the rom and will try one more time otherwise i have to remove this from my phone
Bro i will wait for it be fixed and for sure i will want to try it out... the screen shts look so good... and i like the finger friendly 23060...
This looks really promising, ive always wanted a rom with manila 2.5 on a newer windows 6.5.1 build. Ive tried some others before, but they always had some issues that i couldnt get over, im really picky
Just got a quick question for people that have tried this rom:
When rotating the screen in the photos tab of manila, is the bottom bar still stuck to the right side of the screen, ie does the bottom bar stay in portrait mode while manila moves to landscape?
Small irk, i know, but its tiny things like that that bother me, although i know that this has nothing to do with the cooking of the rom, rather than the windows build itself.
I have started downloading it before reading about the copilot bug, i noticed that the file size is >180 MB, which is strange to me, I usaed to dowbload rhodium ROMs in the range of 100-150 MB only. Does it make any difference for you?
I flashed this ROM on my Rhodium (RHOD100). Do a hard-reset. Then it boots. During configuration it shows square window (occupies about 30% of screen and is centered) with "\WINDOWS\copilot.wm6ppc.ca... is not found". This window has no Ok nor Close button. After "ca..." it continues, but display doesn't respond on touch and also on any button excluding the reset one, so I can't scroll the text, go back or to Today screen. It stops on "Tap here to launch HTC Sense" on purple background under error message I've tried to describe. No other action.
After restart it does "first use prepare" again. It never completes this operations and never get to regular Today (Sense) screen.
The screen during first use preparing is very nice! But not enough to be the only use of Rhodium
Ah yes. That would be the problem.
Download links are down now, pending upload of the fixed version.
Edit:
Both files updated. This version should have no problems booting now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hi, it still has the copilot error at startup
I do not know if I have the old or the new version,
(I was download/installing just before or after uploading the new version),
but I get the error too.
I have downloaded the copilot.wm6ppc.cab from the internet en placed it on my storage card and I'm trying to copy that to my Windows folder.
I'll keep you informed.

Sure pal.....hope you'll like it.
looks very nice, will try it later today....did you manage to get the spacing between X, Battery and Volume right or is the battery still close to X and pretty far from Volume? that seems to be the case on all 6.5 rom taskbars :/
I already tried to install it. But just the splash screen changed not the taskbar... Is that the correct cab?

The X and Battery icons is a design from MS I think and there is nothing we can do. It is suppose to have a bigger pressing area for our finger.
What i did was to shift the Battery Icon to the far left of the given area so it won't look too close to the X icon.

[THEME] ★★Apple 'ipad' WVGA Windows Mobile 6.5.x theme★★ by Jeffrey2000
UPDATED at 19-9-2010 22:45:
Coming up next.... a theme inspired by Apple's ipad theme... here's a picture in advance how it's gonna be...
Remember this is NOT a HTC sense theme, I just happen to have this installed already and like it together with my windows mobile theme!!!
If you want it like this you can better install NRG's 6.5.3/Dinik (in my case omnia 2/i8000) rom and apply my theme after, you can have this views via Cookie's home editor / edit home layout and drag&drop the interface as how you want it to be.
DON't FORGET TO PUT THIS THEME AS DEFAULT or nothing will change
Drop a few lines if you like it (or not)
+ this theme includes an Apple styled on/off switch!!

UPDATED at 02-10-2010 21:00:
Made some adjustments to the theme like the buttons and some other things:
v1.1 includes:
- new improved buttons
- new improved scrollbar
- new improved selection bar
- new improved messagebox title
- new improved shelf/icon dock
version 1.1 can be downloaded here.
--------------------------------------------------------
Just uploaded v1.2, changes:
-fixed the button color + shadow
-fixed the softkeybar messagebox (toast)
-fixed the shelf/dock (softkeybar)
-fixed the radio buttons
(The below files are not the latest cz my upload limit @xda is gone and I dun wanna clean up...)
So just to be clear, please read this clear!:
This is NOT a Sense, Manila, Titanium or CHT theme which I made that's all Dinik's work. I've made the Windows Mobile theme... like the scrollbar, softkey buttons, pushbuttons, taskbar, softkeybar, checkboxes, radiobuttons, comboboxes, selections etc. all within Windows and ofcourse the portrait/landscape background so you don't need anything else in fact.
About 80 d/l's and no reply? Come one ppl do you like it/hate it any comment would be nice!
Upped the same theme but now with blue buttons...
Hi Jeffrey,
I installed the cab and chose it as default theme. The buttons look very nice. I'm missing the wallpaper from your screenshots above though. Where can I find it? It showed up very briefly when coming back from CoOkies Hometab Editor but now it's not displayed. Do you have a hint for me?
Thanks and regards,
Petra
P.S.: I just saw that the background in the Start Menu is the new one but unfortunately it is not on the Home Screen (CoOkies Home Tab included in Energy CHT ROM), well, at least not in portrait mode. It's also there in landscape mode on the Home Screen though, but where is it stored so I can also choose it for portrait mode and in the lock screen???
Tnx for ur reply but well the pics are being copied to \windows\ but I can upload it here aswell see below...
Version 1.1 is uploaded, see the main topic or d/l here.
v1.1 includes:
- new improved buttons
- new improved scrollbar
- new improved selection bar
- new improved messagebox title
- new improved shelf/icon dock

-fixed the softkeybar messagebox (toast)

-fixed the radio buttons
Hi jeffrey2000,
You said that this is not a Sence theme. But it looks like a CHT theme right?
So we could install your theme even other any Sence ROM with CHT installed.
Can you confirm?
It's not a Sense, Manila, Titanium or CHT theme which I made that's all Dinik's work, I've made the Windows Mobile theme... like scrollbar, softkey buttons, pushbuttons, taskbar, softkeybar, checkboxes, radiobuttons, comboboxes, selections etc. all within Windows and ofcourse the portrait/landscape background.
thanks, works on OmniaII nice!
I have only the WM6.5 Home screen with your wallpapers. What do I wrong?
Looks intereseting !! Downloading and installing it tomorrow for sure!
- Keep you posted!

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but, for this theme you need to flash your ROM with NRG?
Is there not some way of getting your theme to work WITHOUT switching Roms?

You don't need any specific rom, any 6.5.x rom will do. But like I said many times before this is a Windows Mobile theme the rest you see is sense 2.5. So in case you want it exactly as I have it you will need a sense rom with Dinik's CHT (cht theme) such as NRG's rom.

No flash required, just a plain wm6.5.x theme.

Maybe forgot to select the theme within Windows Mobile settings?
Go to "start / settings / home" and select the ipad theme from there.

Yeh it's that simply just install the cab, select the theme within the Windows Mobile settings and the theme will be working straight away. Just make sure you have a Windows Mobile 6.5.x device.

Roosticity icon set 20.10.2010
Almost 300 sharp vector icons to suit .sencity theme
Have you seen the superb new .sencity theme by _LeCiel_? It's clean, simple and STUNNING!
But some bits are not quite finished yet and like many of you who have tried it and are hooked on the look, I am impatient and want more- and want it NOW! My old program icons looked like a dogs breakfast sitting next to the slick .sencity design and it was already driving me nuts - and LeCiel had only released the theme the week before!
So I got all fired up and put this icon pack together and now my phone looks almost all .sencity. I now walk taller, my teeth are much whiter and now a single look from me makes the ladies go weak at the knees....
So this is the Roosticity Icon set – I hope you enjoy them!
LATEST UPDATE:
14th November, 2010
Major update- have completed all "Standard ROM" icons including settings folder. Covers all Energy(.sencity) HD2 Leo and Blackstone ROM icons- please let me know if I've missed any. Remember, this will also cover other (non Energy) .sencity ROMS and other Energy ROMS (Rhodium etc) except for the occasional icon which can be changed manually with JWMD etc. (I've focussed on Energy ROM simply because that's what I use).
Also, have now separated the zipped packs into "Standard ROM" and "Extra App" packs assuming the standard ROM packs won't require as much updating from now on. Don't forget you can use icons contained in the "Standard ROM" pack for any of your custom apps also, so have a look in both packs for what you need.
THANKS of course to _LeCiel_ for a fantastic theme- the .sencity thread is here.
THANKS TO CONTRIBUTORS:
They drive us pretty hard at the Roosticity Icon Sweatshop, so if you know anyone that can do an honest days work for an honest days pay (well actually it's chicken feed) then I'd be glad to hear from you. Contributions welcome.
LYCOX thanyou for additional icons - find these extra icons here at post 16 of this thread. Lycox icons up to last update are included within the Roosticity pack.
COLOSSUS_R thankyou for additional icons- find these extra icons here at post 78 of this thread. Colossus icons will be added to the Roosticity pack with the next major update.

ROM CHEFS:
You're welcome to use these icons but please add a post here so we can take a peek at your work, and if you are using the .sencity theme then why not add a link back to here so your users can more easily find icons for the additional programs they load
ALSO THANKS TO:
Thanks to the following for vector source files: Reflection Icon Set by Webdesigner Depot, FREEGINE Vector Icon Set and the Liquidicity icon set by Go Squared.
UPDATES HISTORY:
11th November, 2010
Minor update: Some corrections and additions. Standard ROM pack almost complete- some settings folder icons to come in next major update.
3rd November, 2010
Updated zipped folder to include all the "Standard ROM" icons included in the cab plus a stack of icons for additional programs. Includes extra icons Lycox has contributed up to this date. Now almost 200 icons in total.
2nd November, 2010 (Melbourne Cup Day)
Completed icons for apps that are selectable through Cookies Home Tabs and put in to a CAB. This CAB also covers all start menu icons apart from icons in settings folder.
HOW TO LOAD ICON SET:
A) CAB
1. Copy cab file to your SD Card or phone and run it. The cab will replace the standard start menu icons that come with most ROMs.
2. You will need to clear the HTC Sense icon cache to update the icon links in Sense, and then soft reset. (Use either JWMD as below point B.3, or there's a small utility to do this called SICC (Sense Icon Cache Clearer), or manually by deleting all .png files in ProgLauncher folder (Application Data>HTC>ProgLauncher).
3. There may be a few left over that need to be changed manually with JWMD due to ROM and icon naming differences. Icons for extra applications that you have loaded will not be replaced automatically, so match an icon from the zipped file to your application and change manually with JWMD.
4. If you want to change back to your original set-up, simply un-install Roosticity from your Remove Programs menu (this won't remove icons changed with JWMD- you will need to remove those ones with JWMD)
B) MANUALLY or with JWMD Icon Changer
You can manually rename and copy and paste icons into the correct locations, but I used JWMD Icon Changer to do mine initially, so below describes that method.
1. Download the ZIP from the link below and copy the extracted folder somewhere on your SD card.
2. Use JWMD Icon Changer to replace the existing icons (read instructions from that thread on how to do it- it’s simple)
3. Clear HTC Sense Icon Cache. (JWMD has a feature to clear the HTC Sense icon cache under Menu> Tools> HTC Sense Tools> Clear Icon Cache.)
4. Select yes to Soft Reset.
5. DONE!
BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD: STRICTLY NO DOWNLOAD MIRRORS- provide a link to this thread on XDA instead . Plus- use your THANKS button if you get some use out of these!

Thanks guys, I'm glad you like them - I enjoyed being able to add something
Re new icons yes there will be more, but I don't get chunks of free time regularly so can't promise it will be regular and fast! However, I'll add a request list to the first post which will hopefully make it easier for others out there to help add to and improve this pack.
Very nice iconset. I really like that you even payed attention to the white inner-border and tried to make the icons as close to the CHT icons from .sencity as possible.
Congrats!
So I have to change each one manually and cant just import it? I dont get how to import the set because you dont have a theme file or something
Hopefully there will be a cab or even better, fully integrated into sencity by default.

use CSMI and SICC to change icons, manually.
This gives you the possibility to mix and match icons, since atm not all icons of (for example) EnergyRoms are present.

Thanks it's great to know you like it- I'm chuffed! And yes it's those little details that make the .sencity design look great. (It's much easier to copy a good design style than to create it though)

I'd have no problems with that of course, but in any case if not then at least this set of icons will be there to add some extra options and to cover extra apps etc.
Just for information: I'm currently working on some additional icons. Hope to release them soon.
P.S.: Nice work Rooster

hey, can anybody share the psd file and/or write a quick tutorial how to create icons for the .sensity theme? i think that would be best as some gusys (me for example) use apps, that maybo nobody else use (as duden, pons, pschrembel, langenscheidt, oxford).
plus we would have a very huge collection.
