[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ahirshfield:
CallHistory & Calendar Tabs built specifically for Dutty 1.5 - no glitches/perfect!

To all Dutty 1.5 users,

I decided to make a combined Manila TouchFlo3D addon package containing perfectly built CallHistory and Calendar tabs.

For us lucky users of the best cooked rom, we now have a guaranteed working version of these two new tabs.

This is a combination of the following Addons with all due credit to their respective creators:

CallHistory

HTC - original mode9 files extracted from Orange custom rom​

Calendar

0.75 - EN-US Locale Only

D-MAN666 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=423647​

Active Icon

Alternative - In keeping with Manila standard icon theme

The guide

for manually adding the CallHistory whilst avoiding introducing any bugs (such as no SMS menu glitch):

Tab Positions:

Call History is the 3rd tab, between People & Messages tabs;

Calendar is right at the end, after Programs

Please don't ask about removing the 'Call History' or 'Calendar' links on the Home Screen under the flip-clock as they are not removable at the moment.

How:

As per the above linked guide, I have manually added ONLY the relevant CallHistory & Calendar sections and there are NO other differences from the original. If you want to see what sections have changed, simply use WinMerge to compare your original file with the new one I created. This should help you understand the changes required in case of a future ROM upgrade...​

This is built specifically for

Dutty's rom v1.5

with it's specific version of Manila. There are no files overwritten in the /windows/ directory, other than the updated '26948339_manila'. Therefore the only changed file is 26948339_manila for which the specific version included in this rom was used as a base with only the relevant XML (Page Order; Components & DialogManager) for CallHistory and Calendar added.​

Instructions:

To install, disable TouchFlo3D in today-settings, run the .cab file on your device. To uninstall, again ensure TouchFlo3D is disabled, then remove using the 'Remove Programs' in system settings.​

There should be no worry about backing-up or restoring '*_manila' files as they are always revertable to the rom originals as follows: To restore unmodified rom files, dissable TouchFlo3D in today settings, use "Total Commander" (http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm) to delete any modified version of the file on your device (in /windows/). This will 'restore' the original ROM version of this file.​

Disclaimer:

**While this CallHistory/Calendar XML will work for you as it is based on the supplied 26948339_manila file from this specific Manila/ROM version, it may NOT work correctly for you or others when using a different version of Manila, a different ROM or even a newer Dutty rom.**​

Dutty, I know you try to steer clear of 3rd party apps and customisations but give this a whirl for us please. It's clean and tidy I promise, inspect the cab contents if you want... ;-)

Best regards,
