maaan...why make a pack to come with the app enbebbed?
the app was made to accept icon packs, it even explains how to do them...
thats taking the credits for all the work MikePT had...

its a freeware app why crack it like that?
you made me loose interest in making more icon packs....

the files were hidden, but they were there...
im sure its a good iconpack but it goes against the sysiconz program...
:(

so it can be use WITH sysiconz manager?

also, a screenshot would be nice...

Hey Twolf! it's not mike's program! and i didnt cracked it! I MADE IT! its from the instructions of pou_pee and its totally different from yours!

Pou_pee Wrote
Here's a guide to change the default icons ('ve read it from somewhere else & so i wud like to share with all of you)

1. copy the default .app that you like to change from Z: to E:, this makes E:\system\apps\xxx\xxx.app

2. use program SeleQ to change the properties of .app and set all attribute to "off" except hidden which should be "on" (or you can set all to "off", except system to "on", either one will do) *this part is real importance*

3. with the help of s60Iconwizard program, it will generate .aif file. Just put the file in E:\system\apps\xxx\xxx.aif

4. That's it. You may need to refresh the screen in order to get the new icon by switching to "List view" and back to "Grid view" again.

This work 100% since I've tested it myself

and tzeonn maybe you didn't know how to install it.... the SIS file is the uninstaller, the filename says "SysIconsXpThemeNgagejANjALANiUninstaller.SIS" Uninstaller w/c means it is use for uninstalling! and of course the exe is the installer! Its as simple as that!...

really? you made it and made no info whatsoever in the file? thats wierd, man.

how did you overpassed the realone, aplications and recorder bug problem? did yoiu double them too?

sorry if you really made it, im just not much of a believer in anonimous programmers with no info in the program they made.

TWolf
04-10-2004, 09:09 AM
nevermind, it was like sysiconz but with no manager and for ngage only, i still think the program was the same, but ok...

anyways, how many xp iconpacks are already out there? camooon everyone, make new icons, its much better.

Dj Danny
05-10-2004, 11:58 AM
he he twolf needs to create a mega buzzin bunch of icons now :lol:

TWolf
06-10-2004, 02:00 AM
lol, im not jealous, those are xp icons...

the only thing i didnt like was him using the program from sysiconz (wich isnt mine btw, its Mike's program) and use them as theyr own.
;)

and im threatend by icons, there a lot better icon themes out there way better than mine, its not competition.
:)

MegaShark, could you please stop emailing me? i'm already compromised!

also, i did made a new sysiconz pack with a 7 color choice, but its just not here yet...could it be because of guys like you?

twolf please check your facts before sniping away. for the record, the installer i created IS IN NO WAY RELATED TO MikePT's work. I have not come across MikePT's work nor do i know of any sysicons application. the method i used to install the icons is so simple, you really don't need to code anything or create a program to install such...please, it really is simple. it's so simple, that to create an nfo file for such a simple method would be juvenile.

when you refer to the term 'crack' it is strictly used to denote a method to compromise security, to bypass passwords and that sort of thing. my question. does sysicons have a security/password implementation? if it does not (i am assuming it does not since you said it was freeware), the accusation that it was 'cracked' is stupid since there is no security to crack anyway...

I understand your concern regarding plagiarism....i assure you, this is a 100% original implemention. My own work, my own sweat. I'd like to thank Pou_pee for writing a guide for installing the icons....i learned a lot from him/her.

btw if you still doubt me you may pm me. i'd be glad to explain how i did this installer. (easy as pie). oh, and yeah, you may pm me about the workaround regarding your realone, applications, recorder icon problem.(no doubling anymore!)

peace! ;)

ok, first of all, i apolagise to all if i was too rude, it was written in a better way than it came out, thats the problem with offline conversations, they always sound diferent from the words spoken.

jANjALANi, i wasnt sniping away, i asked you how you made the bug-pass and you didnt answer, so i concluded you did copy the ones from mike.

I used the term CRACK as in MODDING an aplication, i did not made the app miself, as i already explained, it was Mike's work, and i have nothing to do with the programming since i cant even write "hello world" applications, im not a programmer.

I was pissed, yes, when i assumed you just grabbed the work from mike and did a changed version yourself (there are alredy 2 versions out there like that), when that would be foolish because it is a freeware app, why "crack" it like that? well, some ppl already did, and its frustating to see mike working on that, give it away and be stolen after some weeks.
im sure you can understand that.

also, whem mike did the program he also made a tutorial on how to make more icons so everyone could make them...so why did you copy a program that was already out there?

one think i'd like to ask, if its that simple not to double those 3 icons, can you explain how you did it so that mike can improve his program? that would help everyone.
;)

peace indeed, again, im sorry if i was rude in the last post, i had a BAD holyday (it was holyday here in PT) and that megasharks keeps annoying me.

hugs

This solution is really really great!

I had tried almost everything to make the Z: applications work in E: but not this one :roll: oh boy, i did the "shortcut" programs for nothing :lol: the solution was sooo simple. :-P

But there is a catch...

AIF stands for Application Information File

Which means the AIF is not only a Icon, it has the information (mime types/file recognizers) that associates files with specific applications.

So when you create an AIF with S60Icon_Wizard that AIF only has the icon, not the file association info.

If for example you create an AIF for MidpUi (Applications) you loose the ability of open jar files

The same happens for Realplayer, you loose the ability for open .3gp files an .rm files

TWolf
06-10-2004, 12:47 PM
so, you CAN change the icons for those 3, but you cant really use them afterwords...nice.
:(

if the realone doesnt open the .3gp then you cant receive mms's.
:(

TWolf
06-10-2004, 01:12 PM
also, appearantly changing the AIF in those files doesnt work in all firmwares.

mike and i did some tests and changing the aif works in his n-gage, but not on mine..

i have firmware:
v 4.03
26-11-2003
nem-4

Yes I've noticed that problem, i have a remedy for that and but have to do it manually. coz im still finding the right Registry or Ini or whatever File recognizers for that!

Here's the solution. Have you tried using fileman? it has an Option "Open with..." (Options->Operations->Open with...) You can be able to assign what applications are you going to use in opening certain file. example: ".jar" file it will not be recognize anymore if you changed the MidpUi aif. but when you use the "Open with" options you can assign the right application to use. the problem will be solved. Sorry guys but i have to go home. its already 9:15 pm and still im in the office. lets continue tomorow!

The association you do in fileman only works for Fileman, if you receive a jar via a message you still can't open it, the same happens in any other applications.

Anyway i have the solution, it's called AIFBuilder, it builds AIF files with icon and mime type associations but it's not user friendly at all like S60IconWizard.

i'm glad 2 see u guys working together on a better solution while TWolf keeps his big nose away instead of trying to limit other people's creativity...

btw janjalani... still can't see the file link... :(

MikePT, i haven't tried Aifbuilder, i'll find one and give a try. the fileman solution works perfectly in my phone. but the downside of it is "you have to do in manually"(Mano-mano) thats why maybe Aifbuilder is the best solution. :) Have you already solved the problem using the Aifbuilder? I hope so! coz i'm working on a different project now. FontChanger! in the future maybe we can combine SysIconzW/FontChanger. ;) Thanks for the infos!

wow....very powerfull.
image a "theme" to s60 n-gage/3650 that can change all this at once:
icons, wallpaper, op logo, font and color (pallete).
:D

one thing, carefull with fonts, my ngage got screwwed up because i tryed a epoc grd font in it, it never came back up again.

i've got a few ideias for fonts and made a few myself, but there are so many better fonts out there that its much easier just to pick one, the one i found most looking like ngage is "space age":

if you need help remaking a font count me in.

AIFBuilder comes with the Nokia SDK, and yes, i've tried it and it works, but it's not user friendly, it's made for programmers.

Fileman is not a good solution then.

I am trying to change folder icons now but no luck so far...

TWolf
07-10-2004, 03:36 PM
well...there is a way..hehehe

is *someone* made a program for windows to change the icons... hehehehe
those aifs could have that info embebbed.
