^I think it's an image rather than an icon, but I can't see the image really.

I'm wondering if it should go in bundles/com.apple.springboard but not sure. I'm not familiar with that image and can't see it either. Can you post a better picture and also what top image are you trying to change..

yeah it does go there or also Folders/SpringBoard.app i don't know if it has capitals or not i would have to check my theme but even in those it doesn't work so i changed the actual pictures themselves the actual stock iphone pictures. but it still didn't work i'm trying to change the Default_UMTS_ON.png and FSO_UMTS_ON.png in other words the 3G at the top when you are connected to the network but with no wifi the immage i posted is just the S for the 3GS symbol, but green just to replace the 3G.

Huh, I'm just not sure how you would do that. There are a lot better minds here on the forum then me. Perhaps they may know, sorry.

I do not believe that this can be done by inserting a image this way,
Here's a suggestion, I have seen on Cydia apps that will change this 3g (as well as other status bar images), why not download one and take it apart to see how they accomplished it.

thanks for that idea that's how i know where to put the images in winterboard themes and on my 2g i replaced the edge just fine and on my 3gs i have seen that it has switched to the image i replace it with but it only stays for a little bit and will go away and go back to the defalut so i'm really confused thanks though i wonder what is wrong

Again, with 3.0 I just don't think you can do it though winterboard. I may be totally wrong. As I said, over my head.

if anyone needs this i figured it out i got to thinking about how i was pretty sure if 3G wasn't available it would use edge so i also replaced the edge images in my theme and now it works i was wondering why my 3G custom image would work when i was in town but not at my house so often haha.

so if anyone comes across this here are my S logos i just made for my 3GS instead of having the 3G as in my post above you need to use the default and fso of both edge and UMTS i posted the whole theme too so you can just get that instead of all the images seperately
