How To: Use Dock Icons for the miniPlayer

Err0r

This guide explains how to give your M6 a drive image in My Computer, Windows. Depending on the icon choice, it will look more or less like this:

There are 15 icons to choose from, they can be seen below:

Here is how you do it:
1. Download the attached files and extract anywhere.
2. Look at the image above and choose an icon.
3. Copy your extracted files onto your mp3 player. Put autorun.inf in the root, and the icons in the SYSTEM folder.
4. Open autorun.inf with Notepad. You will see that it points to a icon, by default it is icon 1 ("icon=SYSTEM\M6_icon_1.ico"). If you have chosen to use another icon, just change the icon name. For example, if I choose to have icon 5, it will say "icon=SYSTEM\M6_icon_5.ico" in my autorun file.
5. Save, you can delete the unused icons from your player if you want. You can also change the drive name from "Meizu miniPlayer" to anything else, simply change the text after "label=" in the autorun.
6. Disconnect, reconnect. Voilá!

What a nice trick!! Thanks Err0r. I also just discovered that you can do this with other USB items such as a USB stick. Very helpful. Thanks.

Oh, and neofusionx, if you download the .rar, you'll see the individual icon files in a directory.

basically, this can be done with any UMS device. at least, that's what i read somewhere. :D

in any case, i love the dock icons. i've used it in my m6 and even named it "Horus". (i have a penchant for naming my gadgets. lol) thanks Error!

That doesn't work for me... The name works not and the icon too ... :/

Err0r

If it does not work you have installed it wrong. Did you follow the procedure above?

Same here I have done the same like you told, Err0r. I don't think its so hard that i could have done anything wrong :P

You may be erasing the label [autorun] that must be the first sentence on file.

Your file autorun.inf should have the following information inside:
[autorun]
icon=SYSTEM\M6.ico

In my case i renamed the icon that i like to "M6.ico" and copied to System folder.
