It's pretty easy to do

Just change the time style in the time tab of the regional settings to

HH:mm:ss (note the Capital HH)

This works for me

I have tried everything I could find to fix the messaging icon lock up issue. Nothing seems to work. I found if I change my (dont know the proper name) large icon pics that pop up when you hover over the tab everything works find. As soon as I put the gold and diamond ones back in the messaging icon dies again.

You can use the diamond and gold for your tabs but change out the large ones and it will work. At least for me this worked.

I have no idea why the large icons would make the messaging tab crash...really wierd

sms crashing

hey guys, dont mean to interject but if u wanna fix the sms tab crashing with themes PROBEX is the guy to ask. I have installed 6 different themes and the only ones that have worked without crashing is his. He stated in another forum we're part of that the issue is dealing with the mask of the icons. Something about 1 of them has to remain the original size and color or something like that. I dont know specifically how to fix it but I know he does. Theres so many themes I want to use but I cant bc of the sms crashing so some of the skinners may want to ask him bc thus far, hes the only person that I know of who knows how to actually fix it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] robosiris:
You guys ....

... are simply amazing. I'm truly having a hard time figuring out what theme to use due to so many beautiful and interesting manilla themes popping up in this thread. Just when I say to myself, "Ok, this is the last theme I'm going to download and use", one of creative geniuses suck me back in, and I love you guys for that.

I know .. useless post. I just wanted to express my thanks to you guys.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mpenguin14:
@spacemonkey, I am sorry to hear that M2DC is causing you problems... you know there is a restore button functionality? The new build today even gives you a choice between restoring your whole theme or just your xml. Whenever M2DC starts up it looks to see if a HTCHomeSettings.xml file has been backed up by M2DC, if there is no backup a new one is created.

There should never be the need for a hard reset because of M2DC, all it doe sit modify the xml file and overwrite image files, If you find your device is fuabr then there is always hte option of uninstalling M2DC, and then downloading the default xml and hh_ images from the first post.

If you have a problem in the future I would be more thna happy to help you out in the M2DC thread or by PM

THanks for all your work, I am using your NOVA theme now :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
agreed.

i cant even put my phone down because there is a new theme every hour.

I noticed that freezing issue last week when I was using a rom with manila built in. The rom I'm using now, its not built in, and I'm running the latest update of the beta. I have no issues at all with freezing of sms or any other tab. I have all the tabs enabled except for Operator. What manila build are the ones with the freezing issue running or is it built in?

The mask issue will cause touchflo to crash and attempt to relaunch, this issue is different in that it freezes touchflo and you can't restart it without a soft reset. The rest of the phone works fine during the freeze.

Probex, any thoughts? What about you KidNamedAlbert? Did you find the problem earlier?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phantomy2g:
sms crash explanation

this is very easy to fix and yes it does come from the xml... first thing is to not use M2DC sorry twolf but its not stable enuff right now for theme junkies... its best to also use the default theme prior to modded theme or after a hard reset or fresh flash.... do not enable my favs or operator widget... for designers u need to use the exact grey color of an original tabbg mask(best to do this by coloring a whole 28x28 original box with the grey then pasting the black of the mask u want over top)... now this may/or may not(doesnt on my device) cause people error but i read that u just move people to the right of mail to fix this hope this helps glad to see it wasnt just my theme.... not to mention cab installs and placing all at one time in windows directory also causes problems from various theme conflicts. as designers most icons come one at a time till a final result on our device but the themes dont necessarily mesh well with other devices and previous theme installs... it seems the kaiser i use takes any theme zero problems but after adjustments the people who had issues with my theme were able to get it running smoothly on their device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] showaco:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] natefish:
Not useless! I also want to thank you all. (I wish XDA-dev had the "thanks" button like PPCGeeks has--I would click thanks for all who have contributed).

I also want to encourage you skin-creators to support mpenguin14's amazing work and make your themes M2DC compatible. I have really enjoyed how easy it is to switch (currently enjoying the alabaster skin, MobileMatt) between different themes. Keep up the great work, folks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] claus1953:
Same problem here. but that is not on all themes. have the problem on GoldenOldie and BlueGalaxy of the ones i have installed, BlackVista and Albert's TypeR gave no problems. Have the latest version of M2DC installed, and M2D cooked in my ROM (don't know which version it is).

mchapman007 great work, your skin is beautifull thank you for your share ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] showaco:
I've tried 3 different kaiser roms to try to figure out this sms issue. On bengalih's rom(without manila cooked in) I installed update 18 of manila and had zero sms tab issues. With the dft rom(manila builtin), I experienced the manila freeze on sms tab. And on hyperdragon III(manila builtin), I had zero freezes but sms wouldn't display, only the big icon showed until I would move to next tab.

Anyway, I tried all these with my GoldenOldie theme, and got three results. So it seems it works good with latest update, but has different issues with the older builds and/or cooked in builds.

Sorry for the inconvenience of unsuccessful installs, but its more than just a theme issue, it also has some other stuff involved.

I also don't think its a M2DC problem either, since I didn't have it installed while testing any of these.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mpenguin14:
@phantomy2g, I hope you don't mind me asking but what exactly about m2dc has been unstable for you? I am just curious because M2DC is the first windows mobile program that I have written and I am trying to learn as much as I can, and the user impressions on the application are very important to me.

The valid complaints that I have been hearing about are most all due to memory issues, and I have release 2 updates in the last 12 hours to hopefully remedy those concerns.

I am open to any and all feedback and bug reports. If you think a specific part of M2D is fatally flawed let me know why and maybe I will change the functionality (this happened yesterday about 200 posts ago when kidnamedalbert, blazinwolf, and alltheway convinced me to not require a backup of the current theme anymore).

I will continue to develop M2DC even if no one really uses it, I personally like the convenience that it offers me when setting up themes, and trying out new themes... And just like everyone else when trying out new themes I do get Manila 2D into a state where it won't start, and all I have to do is start up M2DC, click on the restore tab, click on the the "Restore XML Settings" button and click on the the "Restore Theme Files" button, and I have the equivalent of a fresh install of Manila 2D to play with and eventually ruin again :)

Thanks for the detailed explanation of the sms tab, that will definitely get used by me while I am trying to figure out why i broke M2D in the future

Sms Issue

I finally got Golden Oldie to work with my kaiser, i upgraded my manila 2d to update 18 and now sms is working.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] showaco:
Hey MPenguin14, great app. I don't think your causing the sms issue, maybe just aggravating it a little. I enjoy using M2DC as it makes it incredibly easy to switch themes or icon packs. Keep up the development!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phantomy2g:
manilla2d customizer

oh sorry for confusion pal its great program but until manilla2d and m2dc are on the exact same page and designers xmls match the most current m2dc its kinda tuff to troubleshoot the different issues when people have all types of devices and different roms cooked-in m2d and non-cookedin and people say well im using M2DC and everything isnt matching up on both ins thats all sorry for the comment it was meant more for the themeaholics going from theme to theme and people creating icons and xmls from different m2d builds... which may just be the problem in itself people need not copy xmls and just icons and ill bet there is a drop in issues... of course for home clock positioning and whatnot xml editing will have to be done but the designer can just include instructions... and this is just my take on it i apologize again for any confusion and please keep up with the development of ur app it is wonderful to us all here and definately needed
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phantomy2g:
hey i see u have a kaiser which is great cuz i do to and i was having the same sms issue just showing big icon till i panned to another tab but i was able to over come this by creating the mask icon from original if u would like i can do one for u and at the same time i had to have all tabs enable except for operator and favorites i tried adding one or the other and it hangs again... also if u have tampered with the original size of the tabicons u will run into trouble but this is still fixed with what i have said above
