When i extract my OEM SYS and ROM folders, i edited the battery status .bmp's(B1btn.bmp etc..) in the OEM/OEMAPPS folder, then recooked and flashed, how come the custom battery images dont show? (just shows the normal one)

Easiest way to say it is that the battery icon, though you are able to see the bmp (That one actually is for inside the phone) ;) but the real battery icon you see on the top bar of your screen is embedded in a .dll file

You will have to extract the .dll file, insert what you want then make sure you resign the .dll file... pain in (_)(_)

My apps are :
Axialis icon workshop corporate v6 - easy to edit & create icon library (dll,icl)
IconCool icon editor v5 - superb to convert icon size & colour
EXeScope - to edit PE resources
Corel PaintShop Pro to convert image to lower colour scale without colour bleeding in icon creation.
SignTools

Resources are app component like icons,images,menu,dialog box, etc.

Signtool to make ur dll or exe or cpl signed so it can be loaded by OS.
