I installed RIcon Changer onto my T3 and can't seem to figure out how to change the icons???
Or for that matter what options are available to me other then changing the app name.
I don't see any option that says it, and the paperwork is very limited.
Am I missing something?
Thanks

Anyone try Icon Manager?

n0m0n
10-24-2003, 11:03 AM
Ahhhh forget that I just noticed that its a icon app for HandyShopper, DateBk5, DataShield, and Agendus.
Guess that is not a good alternative to RIcon Manager

I also bought RIconChanger from PalmGear on Tuesday 10/21/03 I still have not received my unlock code. This develoer is Slow. I have read this in other fourms. I have e-mailed PalmGear support and the also sent a e-mail to the developer. Now They say contact them Monday if I still have not gotten a code.

I think we should get a discount or credit to PalmGear for this. I mean 48 hours is stated and it's been well over that.

None for me either! Yes but from my exp. this if typical for Palmgear. Why not just give us the code when they take our money. Don't tell me it's up to the developer, because Palmgear forces the Developers to do everything else but stand on their head! LOVE developers HATE Palmgear. However in being fair this particular Developer does appear to be slow. SO should Palmgear step in? I think some kind of QC is nessesary.

I would advise that you re-request your code with an explanation as to the time lag.
Copy PalmGear on the e-mail as the CC

OrionNE
10-24-2003, 12:19 PM
I would do that but the developer does not list a e-mail address.
Every site I have gone to that lists RIconChanger has PalmGear as the place to buy it. PalmGear will not give you the developers e-mail address. If you find the RInnovative website and click on the mailto link for the author of RIconChanger it is blank.

Even if I did have the e-mail address I believe the author might not know english. It would be hard to communicate cause that is all I know.

what a pickel...

Well I can say that you all are not alone.
This developer is not the only one that has not responded with a basic request for a reg. code.
For over 5 days now I have been requesting that Tealpoint send me my reg. code for a app that I purchased in 2000.
I have not use this app for a few years, and now find that I want to and need the code.
5 days!!!
I have been e-mailing the company direct.
Now this company used to be jump on all the customer support issues in my past dealings with them.
Well all I can say is here I still sit here waiting for something that I paid for over 3 years ago.
I even sent them a copy of my original PalmGear receipt without there requesting it so that I could address all possible needs on their end.
5 days ago!!!
So your all not the only ones, and this is not the only vendor that seems to have put Palm development or there customer base on the back burner.

tpipher
10-25-2003, 10:45 AM
Jeff I own alot of teal stuff but I also have a keygen to help friends decide if they like stuff. If you want I can send you a code if you tell me your hotsync name. Please don't lie to me in that you ARE indeed a registered user. Thanks. I mean Tealpoint software is VERY reasonably prised so there is no point in "Stealing" it. The only reason I offer is because you didn't ask someone to do it, you just stated the problem. (NO I WILL NOT make any codes for anyone else so don't ask!)

n0m0n
10-25-2003, 10:59 AM
I own the software since 2000.
The company has not responded to my request for a reg. code.
TealPoint has shown an unwillingness to support one of there OS5 apps.
I can prove that I registered the app and that I have a right to its reg. code.
Thank you.

It's NOT PalmGear! When a developer signs up, it's up to THEM to determine the method of fulfillment of a SW purchase. It can be a link to download a full version, it can generate a code, or it's 'developer assigned code.'

I love developers myself (in fact I AM a developer that sells on PalmGear -- and I don't feel that I have had to stand on my head or anything else), but don't blame PalmGear unnecessarily. Yes, they have their problems and short-comings ... but this isn't one that should be included in that bucket of problems.

tpipher
10-25-2003, 02:58 PM
agree with you but if a Dev. is not fullfilling thier end of things then Palmgear needs to step up, if they don't than there is no quality assurance. I but from Palmgear so there is someone to ASSURE me that both sides will be fair. If this is not the case what do I need them for?

I am getting really bummed. I still have not gotten a unlock code. I really would like to change some of the icons. If anyone knows the developer of RIconChanger see if you can have him/her check e-mail. I have read that he/she is sick. (Sorry for that, hope he/she is better soon.) I just wish they could have told PalmGear that the unlock codes will be unavailiable. The Demo is totally worthless. It's just a tease and lets you look at all the icons you could have. I wish it would let you change a few like 5 or 10.

Like I said I have heard the developer is sick and could most likely care less about the reg codes if it is life threatning illness. Just wish the developer could have given someone else the ability to gen unlock codes while he/she is recovering.

P.S. keelin, thx I did try sending a e-mail directly to the address you posted.

It has come to my attention that we are in the process of taking this
developer's programs off our site due to unresponsiveness. We can issue you
a refund for this order. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have
caused you. You will receive an email confirmation once the refund has been

So Now the question becomes ok we KNOW there is a market for this so which one of you programers are going to create one? Palmgear is removing riconchanger and everything from Rinnovative. NO one can get ahold of him/them. We NEED the program or something like it. Any idea's? Hey Festus (HINT HINT) :-)

Too bad PalmGear dosen't put an explaination on the site if the developer is out of commission for a while, and theat they are going to suspend sales until he is up and about. I received my codes about 3 days after paying for it, (purchased approx 2 weeks ago) but only after e-mailing PalmGear that I did not receive it for 48 hours.

If that's the case I'm very sorry for him and I hope het gets well very soon. But...he, or one of his friends...relatives...colleagues could have taken care for only 1 e-mail message with a short explanation. Than Palmgear would know what to do and there would be no thread on this site regarding RiconChanger...or it would be a thread wishing hem well....

In this case PalmGear should contact or find a means of contacting this person and see if they can generate the reg. codes for him in his time of healing.
I would recommend that.
The extra $$$ could only help and he would still have a customer base upon is recovery.
I pray that he does recover.

Any other programs that can do what RIconChanger can do. I have a few apps that are just the boring blue circle. I really wanted to change them to somthing nicer.

P.S. still hopeing RIconChanger code will show up in my InBox soon.

I tried it too. I almost got a icon the way I wanted but sheesh.. Even when I am done it will be nothing like what RIconChanger could do.

RsrcEdit is a good program, if you need to tweak things but not made for what we want to do.

I cannot believe that only one developer has came up with a program for Palm that changes Icons. There has to be another one somewhere.

10-29-2003, 07:43 AM
If memory serves me I think there was a app called IconEdit that I used many, many, years ago.
Thought I saw somewhere that it worked on the OS5, but Its all very vague.
It was a basic / simple icon changer program.
But you could create icons if you did not like the ones that came with certain programs.
Not sure if it was available in color or not.
I think it can be found at PalmGear, but I will check further.
Hope this is of help.

This is probably unrealistic. If something happened to me, there is no one in my family or circle of friends that I would think could take care of something like this for me. There are people at work, but if I was doing this on the side then they would not have access.

The independant developer is what has made the Palm such a fantastic platform, but at the same time does leave many of us exposed for support. In the end I would still choose this path, then waiting for some of these software companies to accomplish the same thing, charge me more, and be less responsive.

I pray for the developer and hope that he comes through whatever he is going through as well as he can.

Ditto my prayers are with this developer...
Did anyone ask Palmgear if they could try to contact the developer in an attempt to offer to generate the pass codes for him???
Support well they would not be able to offer that but hey they could point those with questions this forum.
I know PalmGear does generate pass codes for some vendors.
Its worth a try!!!

That is precisely what *I* was wondering. Mine is V 1.01, as well. I purchased it on July 10 -- the file is dated July 1. Why would that matter?

I DID receive a REG CODE.

:eek:

OrionNE
11-03-2003, 08:31 AM
Again I have purchased RIconChanger. $5.95 and have not requested a refund. (Still hoping for a reg code) I have found a patch for the program but it only works on versions before July 1, 2003. You see what happens is somebody creates a patch the developer finds out about it then changes the program so it cannot be patched anymore.

So what I need is a copy of the program dated before July 1, 2003. You will only be giving me a legal copy of the program.

P.S. I always buy programs that I use. This is just a case where the developer is at fault. I have purchased the program.

Thanks.

I was in touch with him before he injured his back. Here was the correspondence and what he was going to implement.

<snip>

Hi Kenny:

so how was the trip? good?
: )
we have also got more iconpack on the way!
did you check the iconpack page at
http://member.telpacific.com.au/theopoon/

a sneak preview for RIconChanger 1.0.2 which is planned to release in 1~2
week, we are also trying to add support for iconpack from other
system, like MegaLauncher, Wassup, etc...
also in 1.0.2, iconpack admin page is planned, which allow user to beam, and
transfer iconpack to VFS<->RAM!

for the Silver Screen iconpack, I don't think it will be a very good idea to
do as they should be copyright by the owner, I think the best way is to
email the creator of the iconpack for more info before any convert.

looking forward for your great icons!

He was immobile for 2 weeks, then he managed to do some Icon packs from me before he gave up because he sat too long and the pain caused him to be bedridden again. I have not heard from him since. I'll try get to him from his other emails and will feedback here. I was so looking forward to 1.0.2.

It's free too.

I keep on forgetting about Google...
Well I must create a sticky note with that.
thanks anyway.
But it looks like this is written for a much earlier OS...
Maybe that is why it doesn't work on a few of the systems icons.
Or the fact that the calc icon is in the ROM and cant be over written.

I used AppIcon for a while. It worked fine but yesterday I tried it again and it crashed every time I launch it. I even deleted it and downloaded a fresh copy. Still crashing. I am shure it is a app conflict but I haven't figured out what app yet.

I did a hard reset and tried it and it worked fine. so I know it is a app or setting conflict. I restored with BackMan and AppIcon crashes again.

I am still hoping RIconChanger will come back.

I have the same problem with AppIcon crashing. I've narrowed the conflict down to at least Documents to Go and Zlauncher. AppIcon opens fine when neither of these are installed. I know Documents to Go is in ROM, but after deleting all associated files and preferences, AppIcon ran fine. Might want to give it a try.

the trial copy of riconchanger isnt going to do anyone any good, as it doesnt allow to to change icons.... unfortunately, only the registered version will allow that...

I just noticed a new product called ZL Icon Factory on PalmGear.com
I apparantly allows you to change any icon through ZLauncher. It might be worth checking out.

I have been using that in test for awhile now... it is a very good app, and great for making iconsets for zlauncher

Is it ZLauncher Dependent?

I use LauncherX. I like it and really don't want to change. So can this ZL Icon Factory work without ZLauncher. In other words does it change the Icon in the PRC like RIconChange or just make a overlay. And do I have to have ZLauncher installed to use it.


Thanks for looking and finding apps. to change Icons. Hard to believe that Rinnovative had the corner market on this.

From the description at PalmGear, it looks like it only works within ZLauncher...

"...Advantages of using ZLauncher iconsets: No need to have additional programs on your PDA ZLauncher icons don’t modify the underlying programs. Icons “stick” even if you upgrade programs. ..."

I'm still waiting for RIconchanger :(

The correct name is "ZL Iconset Factory"

ZLIF is good solution to changing icons if you are using ZL. I can change any icon I want using ZLIF. If you are using ZL, I highly recommend ZLIF, and it is only $5.

Just as RIconChanger itself, this is Crippleware, which cannot save an icon. So you can't really test the program.

The user interface doesn't look very professional as well...

If by a 'code' you mean what I think you mean, this post will get you in a lot of trouble!!

hmm....yes. But I am willing to pay for this...thats not the issue. The Issue at hand is simply this, the developer is not coming back, and is not being sold anywhere, and in my eyes, that means this application is now public domain, therfore not piracy.

and IconFX is not crippleware, it requires a code...HSID dependant too.

I see your point but i'm afraid I disagree..there is no guarantee he is not coming back afaik and, in any case, ricon has not been declared freeware.

I have heard that IconEdit is updating their app so that we will be able to create / correct / adjust / whatever in color.
A release date was not given, but I think from my correspondence it should be within the next few months.
I have been using it for a few years now and even though it’s only in black, but it works on my T3.

actually appicon is better...it does a "overlay" if he could just update to os5 then i would be set. I would rather edit the sets on my pc then convert it to appicon iconset...

IconFX is how shall we say...not mature yet. The interface is not intuitive. And it crashes when backing out from using /importing from an iconset.
