All the menus I have, I downloaded from that thread (including the ones I showed thumbnails for).

It might be in a pack - one guy posted a link to a 17Mb pack containing a bunch of icons. If you can't find it tell me which one you like and I'll rapidshare it.

Here's my first modded K800 menu.
http://rapidshare.com/files/50251375/MyCustomMenu.zip.html



The menu goes well with an XP theme I got from someone (not my own work), and I've used a collection of different icons from various authors gathered from the K800 software modding thread at se-nse.

The menu uses two java apps (which you have to install also), these java apps replace the Play Now menu item and the Internet Services menu item. Internet Services is accessible via the online button, so hardly seems useful to have a whole menu item devoted to it in the menu.

The two java apps I've used instead are Mini Commander (a Total Commander clone for J2ME - file management, rar and zip, text editor, ftp, way better than Moby Explorer) and Video Maniac, which plays movies but also gives faster ff/rew and a fullscreen progress bar (missing on the K800 inbuilt player)

I've also moved the Video Call menu to within the Entertainment menu, and moved the Radio menu out of Entertainment and back into the Main Menu.

I've deleted the Demo Movie menu, the Sim Kit menu, and wireless village menu (my friends) since I don't use them and I prefer to have as few icons cluttering up menus as possible.

The archive above contains the menu, icons, theme and java apps.

Did a little preliminary modding on my K790a tonight. Used the W880 acoustic drivers and they work much better than the original K790a ones. The earpiece volume is noticeably louder now. Speakerphone seems louder too.
I also went ahead and deleted all the crap that was previously undeletable, like ringers, pics, video clip. I guess as I get braver and figure out more about FAR I'll do more. I wish there were more step by step tutorials for this stuff.

@max: you've modded your menu as if you were God. That's a nice work from you.

I went through all this with K750, and it's virtually the same deal. On my K750 I had whittled it down to six main menu items (phone, multimedia, Organiser, Internet, Tools, and Settings) in single row format. Everything was still there but just more efficiently organised in submenus.

The shortcut to java apps is a neat trick, as it allows you to then add that java app to the shortcut menu.

That second menu looks sick! How do you download it?

Anyway, can you change the Video Call button to Radio, the Playnow one to Quadra Pop, and the Calls one to Video player?

Thanks Vegetaleb, but in this moment i don´t want to change my menu. Of course i have try it with iPhone icons. Menu.ml was bad wroten and radio, video player and track id has vanished. I have reflashed back with Seus and must wait for original K810 menu.ml, before i make any other changes with Far manager.

Now i want only the Video maniac java application. If you can help me i will appreciate.
Thanks
