Any body know how to change the Mobile device icon, which apperared when installing Activesync, as it really does not match my Umicons set :(

Cheers

I don't have Active Sync installed so I am not sure which executable or DLL file the icon is stored in. However, you could use a program like Resource Hacker to edit that exectuable or DLL file and change the icon by replacing the resource.
 
Hi madmatt, i tried changing all the icons I could find in the dll files (none in the exe) via reshacker, and it did not seem to do anything but I guess I forgot to refresh my Icons...... Doh! :laugh:

Thanks anyway tiz sorted now :)

Cheers they are the Umicons set with my own special twist :) hence the 256 colour mobile device icon was scabby so changed it to an image of my IPAQ :)
 
Doh just noticed that when I reboot the old icon comes back, yet if I refresh the icons (using tweak ui) my new one comes back, oh well windows weirdness i guess :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
