Cook another start menu icon into rom?

---

Hey guys!

Iam allmost done with my first rom! But i have one last glitch that i would love to get sorted out..

I want to replace my start menu icon with one that i have made by myself.. However i can't make this work.. If i open the Shellres.192.dll file with Reshack and navigate to Icon -> 292 and replace the icon with my own one. Save the Shellres.192.dll file and sign it with msigner.. And then finally replace the one in my SYS\Base_DPI_192\Shellres.192.dll\shellres.192.dll file with the newly modified one.. it just shows my old ordinary start menu icon.. :S

What am i doing wrong here ?

Thanks for your support !!

Edit the file as you like then delete the folder "Shellres.192.dll" leaving only
the file into the top folder "SYS\Base_DPI_192\"

Quick question about this...

In my kitchen, the Shellres.192.dll is actually a module. Does this mean I have to convert it to a file, edit it, then convert it back to a module?

The reason I ask is because I've spent the last three or four days cooking a 28205 ROM and it's performing well, and I'm not too sure about how converting this particular file will effect performance - From what I understand, modules will load faster than their "file" counterparts.

Not to mention I've cooked a few "unbootable" ROM's by converting too many modules to files, don't wanna make another blunder just because Shellres.192.dll is meant to stay as a module....

Keep Slot 0 as free as possible. WM 6.5 NK allows you to use more modules without taking up SLOT 0 space, so allows more flexibility to use modules (which are faster to load)

First off, congrats on almost getting your first rom completed. We like to encourage all members to create their own roms!!

But we feel that by the time any new chef has the appropriate knowledge to do this, they should also know by now how the XDA forums work. We already have plenty of kitchen and 'how to cook' rom threads.....so why start a new thread for a query which could be posted in an existing one?
