ok, there are still very minor tweaks to be done but for the most part it's FINISHED!!!

 

after 2 months of work, I've made this image.res that has almost replaced every image. I tried to make this as the apple computer company would, not necessarily based off their system. I think she turned out well. It'll be nice not to work on this everyday.

 

I have around 19 buttons that I wrote a number on but couldn't find their place because I don't use divx disc, cds, sirius, hd radio, or xm so if you guys let me know where they are with screen shots I can replace them.

 

this is awesome i love it, Im a newb to the whole Avic scene- but i have already change an updated some of my own backgrounds and completed the bypass Hardwire change. Is there a guide on how to change it to this , I tried searching but could not find anything...I want to do this but not sure how to start let alone complete the whole process.

 

download my "image.zip" on page 1 of this topic

 

take the "image.res" out of the zip you downloaded

 

put it on a sd card with the testmode folders to get into wince (first sticky on hacks forum)

 

put it in the apl folder... replace... good

 

 

also I won't be going out of town tonight I'll be leaving tomorrow morning so I'll have an update tonight

Did we ever figure out a way to view your new icons? When i open up the folders and go through the icons i'm not able to view them.

if you've got cs2-4 you can use bridge... works the best

Lol. I have no idea what that is. I just have a regular picture viewer or paint. Guess i'm outta luck. I just never had this issue with opening bmp's.

Posted Mar 10, 2009 · 16:52 UTC#30

google bmp viewer i'm sure there's something out there

Posted Mar 10, 2009 · 16:59 UTC#31

I can view all the other bmp's that weren't touched. So why wont it let me view the one's you replaced?

no idea...

 

what os are you using... windows 7 could see all of them and had thumbnails

Posted Mar 10, 2009 · 19:42 UTC#33

whoa whoa whoa, im still on XP. I didnt know that that you had 7. Beta test? (off topic I know)

 

I wish we can collaborate on this, and help post up other colors with you too. Kinda like the Nano, you like the style but you want different colors with it. Red is what im aiming for.

 

I also wish i could go on that business trip too. Kinda out of a job (Thanks Circuit City :roll:).

 

I bet a Ipod + pink theme would be hot with the girls (maybe even me :oops:).

haha yeah I'm beta testing... on my mac at work so I won't be able to help for a couple hours

Ok guys, made some big improvements... at least in my eyes.

 

I replaced missing things that were found, also improved on a few things

I'm sure no one but me will notice but whatever

 

Also just desaturated the blues and made a gray image.res for people that can't do that as easily

 

blue [updated]:

gray:

I won't be able to make any changes for about a week so if anyone has a problem let me know within the next 2 hours

yeah i got a copy, it still needs more puffy buttons from Basketcase but its pretty much done. I wish I had the before and after pics because i fixed a lot of things that makes my eyes twitch... like factory phone settings where EVERYTHING was boring and blue.

 

This set up looks awesome in my car since my dashboard and panel is all red

 

*oh yeah i dont know how to host or post a file up*

Posted May 01, 2009 · 17:30 UTC#40

Good stuff man I'm glad you got most of it!

 

Next week you and I will figure out what else we need to do, I'll stick with the boring blue haha but lets keep this sucker alive.

Give me some time to take care of any blemishes and ill post it up.

 

Also as for orange... try out the shades of red and see how you like it. Cause it still might blend with your system (Nissan uses orange+red theme), im pretty sure orange can be done easily but time consuming. but i recently found out about the "action" which makes it all faster.
