I just unzipped the download Custom FW Tools to my desktop.

So I should take the unzipped X5ii.fw file you made and put it in a folder on my desktop then unzip unpack tools.bat only into that folder?
Does the X5ii need to be connected during this? 

I really appreciate your help, Relic.

The only time the X5ii needs to be connected (more specifically the mSD card) is when you are loading the firmware on to it. From there update the firmware as usual with the mSD card in slot number one.


Here's a brief instruction on how to change the equalizer names in the firmware with some pics to follow along:

Here I placed the unzipped firmware tools and the unzipped X5II.fw file in the same folder named " Default_FW1.0 ".

Note there is no x5ii folder.


Then you need to double click the " unpack.bat " file to extract the firmware.

After double clicking the " unpack.bat " file. Now there is a x5ii folder with the unpacked firmware inside.




Once that is done you should enter the ' x5ii ' folder and this is what you will see.
Navigate in to the ' str ' folder.



Next enter the ' English ' folder and this is what you will see.




In the ' str/English ' folder you will see all the .ini files for you to be able to change the text.
Find the eq.ini file and edit the portion that I have highlit in the following image.



Again, only change the text I have highlit in the eq.ini file. The text within the < > should not be touched or else the X5ii will not understand the file.

For example: For the Custom equalizer do not change "< style_custom >" just change the text in between...
" < style_custom > My EQ < style_custom > ".

I used spaces in my example because otherwise they won't show up in my post but you should not add spaces to the lines you are editing.


Finally, once you have edited and saved the eq.ini file (overwrite the file, don't change the name) you want to navigate back to the folder that has the pack.bat file. Double click that and you will have a new X5II.fw file (it will be overwritten) that you then load on to your mSD card and update the firmware as normal.

Koukol, I've done a few edits to my instructions above in case you missed them. Just for clarity.

SUCCESS!
 
Relic, this is definitely above and beyond!

SUCCESS!

Relic, this is definitely above and beyond!

By the way, you can change any of the EQ names, not just the custom EQ.

Yup...I changed two
Now I have a Harsh Remover and Bass Boost.
I'm curious why Rock was changed to Angie.

Oops! I have the JH Angie IEM and I had an EQ for it I guess I left in the public FW. :rolleyes:

I never heard of those IEM's.
I thought it had something to do with THE STONES.
I was thinking...I love the song too but a setting dedicated to it?

Lol! They're part of the JH Audio Siren series IEMs and all of them are named after famous rock songs. There's Layla, Roxanne, Angie, and now Rosie. Angie is indeed named after the Rolling Stones Angie song.

I absolutely love my Angie by the way!

So did Bowie and Jagger!

Sorry for going inactive on theming, I've been busy lately and haven't had the time. Also, I think I've drained myself of ideas, and the firmware limitations discourage me from further theming. A third reason would be that I don't have the X5II to test on.

If I can get a few themes done for the original X5, maybe I will release a second themepack for the X5II.

I think that I am going to complete a theme pack before selling my X5II, because I learned how to use both photoshop and .psd files, and might want to improve my digital and UI creation skills. 
 
EDIT::
 
If anyone can help me:
 
What happens if I make an Icon Bigger? I mean, it crashes, breaks? Or if it works, from what place will ti draw the icon ? Left corner?

Typically the upper left corner. I have a few icons in my themes that are larger than the stock and didn't need to change the coordinates. Mind you, there may be overlapping images if they go too large. That's where the tedious process of testing comes in if you change the resolution of the images.

Any idea how to revert back to the original theme?

download the original x5II.fw and install it. It will revert all 5 themes to the original ones.

Yeah...just copy and paste the original into the root menu and click "replace" when asked.
