Manila Editor is out of date...

it seems that the manila-file system has been changed between the versions... the old manila file (ver 2) can be edited with the Editor, the manila files from the Manila 2.5 can't be edited anymore..:mad::mad::mad::mad:

need an update from the author
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] astuermer:
Manila 2.1 also. Only garbage on the screen :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ben_duder:
To anyone looking for a more recent Manila editing app, I highly recommend Chainfire's CFC GUI. It's far more user friendly, and completely compatible with the new Manila files :D

Big Tnx Sasha and Dmitry your tool it's very very good

It's possible to import edited png in to manila file in next release?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
- Connect your device to pc with ActiveSync.

- Open Windows-Directory on Diamond

- Copy all manila-files to you pc
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Maybe :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skrap3:
I love this tool :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Did you made it by your own on direct file editing?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skrap3:
I downloaded the t-mobile cab file and compared the manila files from this to the files from black clock mod and renamed the t-mobile files.

Only playing a bit arround and trying. But no renaming anymore, just found out the theme files are extractable.

Have you found out anything with the hidden tab? In the t-mobile manila theres another activ tab.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
i think i am the biggest idiot in the world but i still dont understand... how to i find the windows directory?

aaaaaaaaaaah
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skrap3:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
there lies the problem i dont see the windows directory folder???? is this normal
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] blazingwolf:
Yes. You need to turn on the view all files in your explorer.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] blazingwolf:
@sushilange,

Thank you very much for this program. Very nice job. :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
ok i have found the manila files.... but i cant open the windows folder with the manila editor.... am i missing somehting agian

in manila editor i go to select path...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] KukurikU:
i guess u are using vista. i have the same problem in one of my pc. one pc is showing it the other don't.

the problem is in vista not showing system files/directory. it doesn't matter if it's his own (vista) windows directory or something's else (ppc).:)

i tried with admins rights i tried everything, still can not see windows directory in (strange) only one of my pc's....

sorry, i was wrong. i checked again and i can see the vista's windows directory but i can not see diamond's windows directory.:confused: what now?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] vetvito:
^ Do you have "show hidden files" checked.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] KukurikU:
i guess i have because (look at my previous post after editing) i can see the vista's windows directory.

found it and yes, it's checked (folder options/view).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
i cant open any folders through "select path" in manila editor

thats my problem
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Pharaohnough:
View System Files

Okay everyone.

Here's how to be able to view the system files on your Diamond (and Vista).

See the attached screenshot I just made- should do it. :D

You need to UNCHECK that option
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] KukurikU:
:o how did i missed that? because i was seeing my vista's windows directory...i guess. yep, thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Pharaohnough:
I guess it's a bit confusing because on Vista you can see Windows by default but on WM you can't (from a PC)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
still when i go into manila editor i cant open any folders....>>>A>ER>E
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] KukurikU:
now try and change the attributes for the files. i think they have "hidden" attributes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
how do i change the attributes....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
I said it so many times!

Do not select the Win-dir of your diamond with Manila Editor!!!

Copy the manila-files to pc!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
sir i understand... what i did was take all the manila files from the phone and copy it to a folder on my desktop called "new folder"

now when i go through manila editor and click "new folder" still nothing appears....

please

How to transfer a png into Manila?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skrap3:
not yet possible.

Found out that some files on every manila are uniqe and the config manila files were needed for changing the style. But most are named the same.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
There're some black spots in the format, but we're working on it. Next week maybe. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skrap3:
I know its a little off topic but if anyone is interested, here are all files from the chunghwa manila you need to change the look.

Just copy the files to the windows dir.

http://rapidshare.com/files/136176814/chunghwa_manila2.zip.html

The Chunghwa tsk file is also included, just change it on the today settings.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] kleech:
Can someone told how to pack those (XXXX_manila) files to XXX.theme then let it works with "TF3d Config"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Just wait until I add this feature to Manila Editor, because then it would be much easier to create those *.theme-Files instead of doing this manually.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] HTCDiamond22:
Well we hope we could add a

1.Tasks tab (there is a tasks logo from the HTC touch pro)

2.Omnipresence tab (vista logo)

3. Google Earth tab

4. Diamond TV tab (maybe, considering it is payware)

5. IM tab or

6. RSS tab

:cool:

then we will have the perfect phone

nobody seems to be reading old dev thread, so i'm posting some

HOT NEWS here :)

Great thanks to my friend, Funbit, who aquainted me with IDA - the best disassembler/debugger ever, I've cracked down path hash also, so we:

- are one step closer to manila programming/extending, coz we can add extra files now

- will have a convenient theme editor/creator for any ROM, coz now we can just rip out all .qtc paths from .mode9 files and then convert them to manila-native hashpaths

Stay tuned ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] KevinNash:
:D For sure, can't wait !

Great job ! :eek:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] _Nomad_:

Hello guys!

While we need some time to port my findings from flash/air to win32 manila editor, here's another theme mockup, just to keep you entertained :D

Have fun ;)

P.S. Don't forget to set wallpaper manually
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
Thanx :)

Can't wait until you release the manila editor :D

Will be so much fun to create different manila themes!! :D

@D-MAN666 what is '6c658481_manila'? Its a black square but where can I find it on the layout?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
It's background grid squares... just to make it solid black :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
Aha .. ok .. tried it , but its nicer with the Gray squares for now :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
Yeah, of course you can tweak it by renaming and/or not copying files :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
renaming!? ... only between manila files, right? (but they have to be similar shape/size?)

or for ex .png to manila also!? :eek:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
Between manila files (for now) only, of course. But size doesn't matter as manila uses UV texture mapping to show graphics. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
Aha .. nice .. will start experimenting right away .. :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
You've been hinted in previous posts, dude: use Total Commander (available in both PC and PPC versions)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Dpakrawal:
Im having trouble.. Am unable to change the file attributes even using total commander... I used the ppc version.. the changes dont seem to take place at all.. Any suggestions !!??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
Copy all _manila files to your computer then use Total Commander to change the attribute...

or download a theme and use ex. winrar to unpack the _manila files to a folder on your computer...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htcfanboi:
ok finaly!!! but now i have another problem.... changing the icons!!!!

i edited the mail icon... and made it look really cool.... i renamed it to the original name.... but i dont see it in manila editor it is 59c727fc_manila and the attributes are not on hidden... so i am confused thanx guys
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
No, you cant edit the files yet... Thats what they are working on with the Manila Editor...

You can only rename the different _manila files

for ex. the bluetooth icon is '1831bbe5_manila', if you copy and rename that file to '032a0546_manila', it will show a bluetooth icon instead of the little house in 'home' tab...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Dpakrawal:
Thanks... I had already done what you said... But the problem is when i wanna copy these files (after making the changes) back to the windows directory.. I says cannot copy/move the files !!..

What I'm trying to do is.. to change the colour of the clock in TF3D.. I have the files needed to change the manila colour.. but cannot overwrite them with the ones already in the windows directory of the device !!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] D-MAN666:
OMG, what's wrong with you, people? (c) :D

Just use Total Commander (PPC) to transfer files from somewhere (on device) to Windows dir :D :D :D (sorry, i told, i can't hold it any more)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Dpakrawal:
Dude !!

I have tried all of those things.. It still does not work.. Whether i try to overwrite the files from my PC.. or from anywher on the device.. using totalcommander and resco explorer... It gives me the same error !!!..

"CANNOT COPY/MOVE"...

Any other suggestions !?!?.. :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
Is this theme compatible with TF3D ? If YES, how can I install it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
I mean this theme
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
@gabib77

Just copy the _manila files to the windows folder on your phone...

( if you had done a search, you would have figured it out by yourself? ;) )
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
Sorry, but I got a link from a friend and it does not appear the whole topic...

Anyway, thanks and perhaps I have to do a back-up first...

It is the beginning for me I have a HTC TD only from yesterday :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NisseDILLIGAF:
no backup needed... original manila files is always in the rom...

just delete the files you put there if you want to change back...

...you could delete all '_manila' files if you don't have any other tweak installed, like call log tab...

but beware, you could mess things up... know what you are doing before you do anything... ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gabib77:
I get it... thanks again!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Manila Editor is not finished yet and end-users are not able to change the theme yet!

At this time this thread is more for developers instead for noobs.

That's the reason why I put the thread to "ROM Development" and not to the other category where everyone is looking for new stuff.

If we release a version of Manila Editor which can easily change the theme and can create a *.theme-File for TF3D Config we will tell you this ;-)

So if you have questions about replacing the _manila-Files or asking if it is required to make a backup, please use the search or create a new thread :-)

But....i don't know how this app work :confused:

- I must connect my TD (mass storage or Active Sync ?)

- Then i launch MalilaEditor

but how i can find the right folder to explore ? It is on phone ? but i can't explore the phone memory with this app :/

Every one can write a small tutorial for noobs, like me ?

Thx & Regards

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Bandit13:
FYI

But the manila files are located in \Windows\ directory (Hidden Files). If you want to see the manila files with manila editor, you must copy them directly on your PPC with Total Comander or Resco Explorer for example on Internal Storage and after, copy them on your computer.

You will be able to search the path with manila editor and show them

Sebastien
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] leopardone:
if you set to see ALL the files (hidden, system...) in windows, you can copy them directly from /windows/ in Diamond to PC :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] blazingwolf:
Just move them to your computer.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sushilange:
Great news:

We fixed the problems on converting a png/bmp/etc to qtc :-)

Are your manila files flagged as read-only? Maybe this causes the error you got. Tomorrow i will release a version, which remove the read-only-flag before replacing. For now, please try to remove the flag "Read-only" and maybe "System".
