This is just a basic look at the hack I did using Resource Hacker. The full guide can be found at http://www.zuneboards.com/forums/zune-hacks-mods/40297-zune-software-hacking-... (I am the author of the thread).

  • how do u change the device menu background?

  • @sHaDa7x you have to figure out what firmware you're running (for example, the HD runs on Pavo) and find a background with that name in the zuneshell.dll file and replace it. My link explains it.

  • I'm currently following your tutorial on the zune boards (awesome work, btw :D) but when I open file 1033 from STYLE.UIX the code looks somin like this

    00D0F165 34 43 87 9A 83 83 etc. all the way through the list It does not have

    Color Name="DarkGray" Color="55,58,61"/

    Color Name="WarmGray" Color="130,134,137"/ and the like at all

    How do I get it to display the code right? I'm not an expert and can't figure it out

    Any help would be very much appreciated

  • @z90OoAluYsioNoO09z Anything relating to Styles.uix doesn't work with software versions 4.0 and beyond. If you're following the link to ZuneBoards I supplied, I have it at the top of the post.

  • @Link9228 Is there any possible way to get back a 3.0 version? I've looked everywhere to download the 3.0 back rather then the 4.0 - It sucks that they went and encrypted the .dll

  • @z90OoAluYsioNoO09z I'm sure there are ways. All you should really need to do is download the 3.0 software, disconnect from the internet, and clean everything related to the zune software. The only problem with this is that you can't access the marketplace or anything online, and there's a chance plugging in your zune will make your software complain about updates. Furthermore, if you have a Zune HD, it doesn't even work with anything pre-4.0. In all honesty, it's probably not worth it.

  • @steventaylor80 I don't know where he got the desktop background, but the one he used on his Zune menu was from an artist on Deviantart called alexiuss.

    Go to alexiuss . deviantart . com -just remove the spaces.
