I removed Total commander and now everything works fine. the Icons look great. I had to fix the battery metter with a registry editor since the link for the cab file was not working. Other than that, it looks great.

hmmmm never heard of that or experienced that with total commander before........ sounds almost more like you had another app installed that was conflicting with it.......

I finally got the battery to work, however for the start menu icon when i go to /windows the shell res.192.dll0409 original will not let me rename it or even delete it so i am unable to put my new start mui file there. What am I doing wrong?

yuppers you could use either resco like stated above or you could use total comander also.... i jsut like resco better since it is a easier to navigate file explorer.

this how i did it ..

save your work on your sd card

I used total commander

I go to windows.. i find the file an rename it an add .du at the end

go back to sd card copy an move to windows .. soft reset an your on.

now you can go back to your windows folder an remove the old .du file if you like

The only way to have the original MS icon is to install the original shellresXXXX over the one u installed from the taskbar cab.. or request a CUSTOM icon here:

just to make sure I understand this, even if the EV icon is showing i'm still connected to the RevA version of the network correct? all this does is change the icon, but not any network connections correct?

if you have the ev symbol you are getting full rev a speeds... if you asre getting 1x than you have slower speeds or the line is in use like a text message is being sent or an email per instance.

ok, so my registry settings are the same as suggested, but yet my battery indicator in the task bar shows 72% but yet when you click on it and see the actual battery status bar it shows 8 out of 10 bars. anyone else deal with this or have a fix?

Does it stay at 72 or does it go down with time. If it does, its correct. You prolly have to get to 70 percent to show 7 out of 10 bars, then 60 percent for 6 out of 10 bars, ect ect.

why is that odd? if it was the other way and your phone got to 19% the low battery would go off telling you to shut it down or it was going to..... you would lose at least 9% of your battery life each time which in my books would be huge considering if i was at 20% or 1/5 of the battery life left i wouldnt want to drop to 10 and get that warning right away.... just my opinion but in the first posdt get the 1% one if you like that better and it fits your style better.
