Application is used to generate patches to change GFX icons for DB2020 phone models, use a program like main3raw/GExtract to extract .raw file from your "main" firmware file, you can also use the application to save all image files within the firmware to .png format (like menu icons and so on if you wish to use as templates).

Its advised to use a png compressor to lower the size of the images you will be patching into your phone as you will not need to select so many donner images (donner images will be permanently removed from the firmware untill to remove gfx patch or flash new main).

To be honest, I have generally stayed away from most of the GFX packs that's out, people tend not to post the .png files and some patches can conflict as people sometimes use the same images as donner images.

I'm basiclly just running my own battery pack and signal pack at the minute (There in the screen shot of my phone in the Quad Band thread Smile)

I released those ones (with psd's) as a starter kit to help people get into GFX'ing, they have different color cylinders so people can make there own, ill upload it later for people to try Smile

Oh yeah I do a tiny GFX'ing too (I noticed you have demonz eXistenZ for the w800 in the download section...... its by me Cool its based on signature_boys eXistenZ pack but I added alot more icons and stuff and splash screens).

Neon Starter Kit:
Only registered users can see links on this board!

I've put a little Battery and Signal Kit together to help out the member's that are a little newer to the GFX'ing, the Neon Starter Kit include's two psd Templates, one 15 Layer Battery Template which has guide marker's and 6 Cylinder Color choices including three Pearlecent effect Cylinder's :p, and also a 19 Layer Signal Template also with guide marker's and a choice of 5 Signal Bar Color's (sorry no pearlecent), and a choice or 6 GPRS Coloured Marker's, you will need to edit the Boarder's and the Boarder Padding Layer's at least if your going to create Icon Set's with the templates (I suggest making the padding layer almost Transparent for best effect) but you'll get the hang of it Laughing.

Neon Icons:

Ready made Battery and Signal Neon Icon Set (the set in the centre of the Screen Shot), with 3G Icon, Battery Charging Icon and No Signal Icon's as extra's to keep with the Neon theme.

Also not everyone has the money to buy PhotoShop or is a little worried about torrents due to viruses, so i tracked down a great little plugin for Paint.NET that allows you to edit and create psd documents for the ones that want to play but don't own PhotoShop.

Icon Pack does not contain any patches, so you can choose your own images to be removed form your phones Firmware

Enjoy.....
diezil

"This pack is intended to help people create and modify Battery and Signal Icon's for the Mobile's.
Please do NOT release pack under your name, you hold rights over any Icon's created with these template's other then the supplied colored sample's within the template's.




OK this pack is just to help you guys get started in the DB2020 GFX'ing world, if you just want the icons download the Neon Icons file (only includes the blue set in the middle of the screen shot), but if you wish to use the Pearlecent battery set or the colored signal sets, you will need to download the full kit (only 100kbs or something), you will also need to build those ones yourself (hense it being a kit to encourage member's to try the GFX'ing), basicly everything is done for you though, you will just need to edit the Cylinders/Bars (guide layers included) give the boarder padding a 50% transparent effect, flattern and resize..... made it sound so simple there, but I'm sure if your intrested in GFX'ing it'll be a piece of cake Smile

Or if you just like the look of the neon blue set download and use with DB2020 GFX Replacer.

@Diezil: I forgot to type @Farrukh in that line Wink
But if you want to check it out, its really simple
- Download a DRM for any phone (e.g. L7 or V3i from downloads section, it will have DRM - in its name)

- Download:

- Open the download DRM .shx file with DRMPort. It will parse the images and create a folder with the images.

Its possible that we might have to 'adjust' the height of the icons in the status bar, since the icons for moto are 15 pixels in height (I don't remember SE's, but the ones for 240x320 must surely be taller)

240x320 use 24x24 pixel for the status bar (I think.... in fact I'm sure Razz).
176x220 use 16x24 I think it is, but even so its still no biggy resizing icons, in fact I noticed a few Menu Icons that could possible be used also Wink
(at least those are the sizes used in all the ones I got Laughing

PS: I got a new SIGGGGGG lol......

Hehe nice sig

Actually resizing itself is not a problem, but maintaining the quality is. You resize a 22x15 icon to 24x24 it is not going to look that good

Plus, in moto, we have 4 levels of battery. In sony there are a lot more. So either you can edit the battery icons and insert more intervals or you can go ahead and take the same image for two levels of battery.

For the menu icons, the same follows....but resizing would be easier

For all of them, it would be much easier if we port from 240x320 moto DRMs and skins.

Will try and post the first port tomorrow (my pc got busy today Wink)

Well photoshop does a good jod at resizing most things (although not all member's have PS, but gimp is a good alternative which is also free (and available for widows aswell as Linux), I downloaded drmporter earlier today so I'll have a try tomorrow also Smile

I had a K810 R6BC002 MAIN lying around in my pc (I delete all after uploading), so I just made a test patch. I have also included the signal pngs. So if someone can test (the patch, or make a patch himself by using the pngs), and let us have a look to see if its worth porting, I'll port the whole pack....currently its just signal icons for testing.

@diezil: Yeah I know R8BA024 is used, but I had R6BC lying around in my pc.

These are for battery. If you can post a screenshot with them applied, it would be good and I'll try to post the whole pack tomorrow.
Btw, any recommendations on what the pack should contain apart from ring style/battery/signals icons?
