Question: how to show BT icon in IconBar?

[bigix1]

Some devices like Omnia, don't have led notification.
So, the only way to have info about BT activation should be icon in upper iconnbar (not in traybar, because with manila it is not visible).
Wi-Fi do it. But BT not.
The icon is present in dll (it shows when received a file), but non show when set BT on.
There is a way to make it?

I have the same question in reverse :)

I recently flashed a custom ROM that added this icon and do not like it. It serves no purpose for me (I always have bluetooth on, and clicking the icon does nothing anyway). I can't figure out how to get rid of it.

Searching for "Icon" in the registry did not even hit anything.

i'm not into omnia at all, but there are a few threads dealing with changing taskbar icons, maybe you can find info there about how to add the icon and change its looks.

The OP does not want to *change* the icon, he does not have it at all and wants it there. And I am the opposite, I *have* the icon and want to totally remove it.

It's an icon that shows whenever bluetooth is turned on.

There is some way to turn the bluetooth icon on and off, because the last ROM I had (which was the same WinMO version) did not have the icon, and this one does.

EDIT: Also before anyone asks - I have no bluetooth apps in Windows/Startup, so it is not that.

hehe, it's controlled by some dlls.. but first thing you should do is to download Advanced Configuration 3.3 by Schaps and DISABLE the phone skin

the op needs to do the opposite.

Argh, really? I really like my skin... why would the phone skin affect the bluetooth icon?

[nir36]

you can notice that when you install different dialers, you also get different taskbar icons... that's why :) with the dialer, some dlls are supplied.

If I disable my phone skin, my dialer is now all busted :(

If this icon is supplied by some DLL, can I delete the one in question? Or replace it?

I use Manilla2d so I don't have a bottom tray.

I am talking about the status icons at the top.

which device do you have?
i recommend using the new iolite phone canvas.. it has the BT icon with the skin enabled by default..

You are wrong. Read what pauldgroot
FAQ:
Q: Is it for the Samsung Omnia?
A: NO, and it never wil be! (sorry I don't like Omnia users, most of them are newbies at WM and ask stupid questions)
No comment.

And i tryed last iolite phone canvas, but it is QVGA, not WQWGA (omnia is 240x400) so don't show very well.
But BT icon works :)
So, i have Omnia, i have default Win phone Skin, and i think it's not easy to have the BT icon in iconbar if i don't have a good phone canvas :)
But the question is: can i use simply the dll and its associate keys for obtain it without change phone skin?

[nir36]

oops, i completely forgot it was an omnia.

I assume you can just apply the dlls..
i didn't deal with taskbar customization too much..
but as i told you, there are 2 threads, mentioned in an earlier post, you can find many icons and guidance there..

[brunes]

So... no one knows how to remove this icon if present? Maybe i should start a new thread with a better title.

I"ve also been trying to figure out how to get rid of the bluetooth symbol...
