Hi guys today you will learn how to change any icon of installed app in C or E.

Lets begin :ashamed:

Tools that you will need

1. Unsis 2.5 and Xplore

2. an app with the desired icon to change the original icon (for example best call recorder to change TotalRecall icon)

3. Now use Unsis to unpack Bestcall recorder and extract it.

4. Look for the file called BCallRecorder_0x2000FE5A_aif.mif

5. name it to TotalRecall.mif (you must know the real app name in this case is like I wrote but can chage (sometimes could appear with UID: BCallRecorder_0x2000FE5A_aif)[/COLOR])

6. Send the TotalRecall.mif to your phone (I use Bluetooth to send it to my inbox).

7. Search it it xplore.

8. Once you fond the file just replace it in C: or E: \resource\apps\paste it.

9. go to you menu and voilá ;) the BestCallRecorder icon is now a TotalRecall icon :dance:

I have change the Tyscreensaver icon and TotalRecall icon see

You can repleace also icons of apps from z drive, but you need to copy *.rXX file of target app to c drive (like with changing startup image, which is described on forum

Yes, indeed my friend, thank you for the info ;). karma added

Hmmmn .... strange ... no need for particular app. icon to have exact matched UID ...?

no, don't need that ;)

Great ... let me try than with some favourite icons ... i cannot believe that can be so simple - just rename icon with exact program name and replace(overwrite the original one) in to the C: or E: \resource\apps\ ...
Thanx, must try ... rep ++++ ;)

You´re welcome my friend. Enjoy ;)

thanx mate I will try it ;)

thanks for the help friend.. :good2:

Roland thanks for help our friend above.

Make sure you give the exact name.

TotalRecall.mif is the true icon name of TotalRecall so you copy

BCallRecorder_0x2000FE5A_aif.mif and rename it like this TotalRecall.mif, ok?

Try and give me feedback. It's simple :)

Okay...

I installed rotateMe and wanted 2 change the icon in2 the nokmote icon...
I have opened and extracted nokmote and found this: Nokmote_0xE000B842.mif

I have changed it in2: rotateMe.mif

Dropped it in the N95 8GB and due 2 the installation of rotateme in c:, I have placed it there in c:/resource/apps

nothing changed.....Because you did it wrong, first find out the filename of the original rotateme MIF file. I am sure its not rotateme.mif but rotateme_xxxxx.mif (xxxx is the UID). look for this file in the c:/resource/apps folder ;)

Thank you swankyleo, I couldn't help our friend rolan95d because I was dinner ;)

rola95d my friend do like swankyleo said and should be fine.

Thanx Swanky ....... (again)....

U know...
I think it's missing ion the description that U first have to copy the *.mif string with use of unsis.
Then extract the app u want 2 change and change that new with the name U have copied B4...

Now when i put it in c:
It stated overwright yes or no.....

So, maybe the description can B updated?

I still don't it in the first post.
With your help i did....

Hello Albertobom! Many thanks for the great work.:) The procedure can be made whole by telephone: by not using the program unsis but application in python for symbian 3rd edition called smartsis that also has the function of breaking the files sis. As unsis ago. Here is a screenshot as I split the file sis best call recorder with smartsis.

Here are some icons extracted from New Style theme by PiZero and New Smile Mini (I don't remember the author, sorry). Previews inside the archive. http://rapidshare.de/files/39872004/Icons.zip.html

Thanks mate... Do you have the latest icons of acidsonic? Like mobitubia, emtube, wmp 11, bluetext, etc...

care to tell us the steps how you extracted the files?

not working for me! copied 'CorePlayer_20012FA6.mif' renamed it to 'rotateMe_0x200087B5.mif placed file in c/resource/apps but icon stays the same? using hacked n95 silver

edit;
woke up next morning and icon had changed!! strange!!
now... how do i change it back!!:weedman:

No mistery here: just read this after discovering it myself. The only thing we need to know is that the aif_mif files contain the app icon. If we replace it with the icon of another app keeping the original filename and restarting the phone, the change is made. And that can only be done in hacked phones.

My problem is a little deeper: how to use PNG or even SVG icons (like those in Flahorn icon pack) in substitution for the apps MIF icon?

Its so simple!, amazing icons in my phone.. :d great idea..
