I've debranded my W715 from Vodafone to NORDIC. But now I'd like to have back the battery icons of the Vodafone firmware as I like them better (see attached picture which is from a modded W595). Is there a way it can be done on my W715? If yes how do I do this?

Also I'd like to change the right softkey button - which got currently "Search" on it - to "Contacts" (as it was in my old W760i). What files do I need, where do I get them and where do I have to put them?

Edit: Added picture as an example which icons I'd like to have.

If you want vodafone icons, go right on back to that firmware... No other way I'm afraid.

No way I'll put that Vodafone-stuff ever again onto my phone! Then I'll have to live with the icons.

So what about my softkey problem?

You can`t change battery icons with patch or tpa/system/icons method
at DB3210 phone!
Read tutorial to change your softkey,it`s easy and search for "Kontakte"
in menu.ml,to get the right "Action internal type".

Will this RIGHT_SOFTKEY_HOOK.itm
and an empty "Customize_upgrade.xml" work if I copy both to tpa/preset/custom?

Edit: BTW, gani, I hope you don't mind me taking your screenshot as an example...

you could download a vodafone branded MAIN for a slightly older A2 phone. . W760 for instance. should have the same icons.. extract the MAIN with read3150 and use the SE ImgTool to get the icons out, and then edit your menu.ml to use those images.

How do I edit the menu.ml? In what way? How do I "tell" the file to use my icons? Where do I place my icons? Does it even work on a DB3210 phone (as gani wrote it can't be done (yet)...) ?

BTW, I changed the right softkey with the RIGHT_SOFTKEY_HOOK.xml code posted above and packing it with TUGzip. To get the contacts the correct string's "Phonebook".

Editing the menu.ml won't give you the Vodafone battery/signal icons, so you know

ah, sorry I was too tired when I read the first post .

yeah, you can't change the battery or signal indicators.. just the menu icons..

for what you want, you have to wait for if/when patching comes out for DB3210 phones.

Right noob moment here .... where can i get or what can I use to create
an empty customize_upgrade.xml ???

I've got my right_softkey_hook sorted !

ignore me .... if i'd only just check what I type :-]

customize_upgrade.xml, when checked with a "proper" xml
editor was found to have an invalid character !!

Does anyone know the size of the battery icons of a W715? I know I can't patch it right now but I'd like to have the icons ready when patching's possible.

Hi! Is this the tutorial that I should be reading for my W995? Or something else?

I'm really new to this so I hope someone can point me in the direction to customize both left and right softkeys and the main menu.

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I managed to get the Right soft key changed but the left soft key refuses to change (stucked at Media). Below is the code I used and I don't see anythign wrong with it. Any takes on this?

Um did you upload it with a customise_upgrade? And did you pack it right

I tried Vodafone FW once to see the icons and God are they ugly

I actually like them Just all the other stuff I don't

Hm.. I didn't consider that to be double posting because the previous post was posted about a week ago..... Anyway, that's not the point.

Yea, I did pack both exactly the same way but somehow the Left Soft key doesn't change - its still stucked at Media.
