just messing around with the general call png... Any ideas

.... thanks for looking.

ps The middle is clear so your own theme colour shows up as you should be able to see by my screen shot.

Looks cool qosmio. Maybe some vibrating lines around the icon (((icon))) on the corners?? Just a thought. Good job!

I made the background first then pasted the icons etc on top and made it to 1 layer, the easyest way to remove the icon is to cut the icon, then copy the same part of the backgroun from another area then paste it into the cut area, for my work i use Gimp on windows XP

Regarding overclocking I would argue that it saves battery life.

When the system is idle the CPU uses 0% power, so only when the CPU is active will there be any power drain, and as the operations carried out by the CPU will be completed in a shorter space of time when overclocked in theory less overall power will be used.

The benefits of overclocking are most evident when gaming- for example a game which does not run smoothly may well do so once the device has been overclocked.

Place the .png icons into usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon

Place the 2 .xml files in etc/systemui

now reboot your device to see the new icons in the power key menu.

*note* applying this mod will remove some of th default options from the PowerKey menu, the options shown in the screenshot are what you will get unless you tweak the systemui.xml file yourself.

Can you tell me how to add a secure device button or do you have the original xml files? I forgot to make backups. Thanks!

Thanks in advance.

The font is called Tabitha, i'm not sure where you can download it. You should place the .ttf files in home/user/.fonts and reboot.

Good luck!
