How to restore v-2 manila theme?

Got the file that fix the slider. but i would like to get the background of the home page, just like it was in V-2. this background is too dark for me and i really liked the previous one.

I know it's just a simple file but i can't find it.

How can i do that?

Weather data

Impossible to insert a new town in weather data base (with weather database editor).

Any solution ?

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] autdev:
how did you solve the power draining problem.

when i testet MN7 after first start my akku is going down in a few hours! powerguard showed over 250 mA

even shutting of display. after removing software normal batterylife come back!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
I think it's not compatible with the new manila. Please take in mind that this manila is new, it has almost 2000 files and all the present tool or themes have to be adapted to the new files. So, we have to wait that the amazing developers of this community will work on it ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
Read first post, other languages are supported, german too :p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TraumaX:
ahh awesome to get up and see this! Great work, can't wait to try it out! I actually regret sleeping in now! :rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bnbrival:
Hi Davideuck,

Tks for your great ROM and works. I like transparent Changed clock and slider on Manila as your V5. Do you have .cab file?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] andolfree:
flashed.. fantastic... so fast

ps= only a question.... NO FINGER Menu?? tried on Dutty1.9 and was a great thing
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
You have to install HardSPL before the rom. Look at the sticky threads for it.

Then, you can flash this rom using CustomRUU.exe or the other version you will find on the first post of CustomRUU thread(this one is a sticky thread too). ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
You have to understand that we don't have his source! This stuff it's reconstructed from his rom dump. So, It seems just amazing to have this rom AS IT IS in my opinion. And, other feature can be related to the rom build(21018), but as I've said on the first post, 20769 it's really faster than that, and all the other apps works good with it(I remember, MSVC full working on this rom). So, for me this is the best solution, I don't worry about a menu :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] lynne02191:
haha, good good, but i'd rather looking forward to have the original manila version, cos I think that should perform in a more stable way, am I right? maybe...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
Umm, I think this version is stable too. The V-6 will have two better points:

1) it will be a little faster

2) all the apps and tool for manila will work on V-6, and not yet on V-1_HP for obvious reasons
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mouki_9:
hmmmmmm, i see also no dutch support for the new keyboard....

do you guys have any clue when a dutch t9 will be available? I have tried many cabs for the dutch xt9, but all messed the keyboard up. For example type the letter 'k' get the letter 'l' or something like that. Also all those cabs are for ezinput 1.5 and not for the new keyboard. Hope some can shed some light on this matter
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mbrudnoch:
use ezInput 2.0 with languagepack, i'm using polish and it works perfect

Another fantastic additoon to your collection. I did try Dutty's but had problems with compatibility with flipiit not working properly and opera mini. No problems with this rom and best of all feels faster. :)

Love all the new features.

Great work Davide!

Many thanks

This is the first time I use the new Start Menu. I prefer the old one.

Is there any setting for me get the old Start Menu?

I just installed and how do I do hard rest (using clear storage) since I cant find it :add progarm"?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mioqiu:
I prefer the old one too
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zoroskynet:
The start menu much more user friendly than previous one. Just try some give time to yourself you will like it.

For the all setting issue go settings tab on the manila you will see left corner all setting button. Push that one it will work....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dannyng:
Thanks zoroskynet, I play for more than 2 hours and try to give this new Start menu a chance but somehow I still not able to get use.

I like the old one where it has "program" & "Setting" where i can check a lot of thing.

How to go setting tab? Every time I press the Start Menu, it come out the "Add program" stuff.

BTW, I revert back to Davideuck V.6.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Seven_PRX:
nm, can be deleted
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lucas0511:
Great new share, but indeed the settings tab in the start menu would be great to have. V3 is definitively a keeper, respect for David.

Default Background

Go to the manila settings page, select "Wallpaper" and answer to the question "Would you like to use the default wallpaper?" with "Yes". That's all :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Setting icon in the start menu

You can make a shortcut in "\Windows\Start Menu" to "\Windows\manila.exe" with the parameter "--switchtopage settings.page".

PS. Okay, the icon is not the most beautiful one :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Not with the start menu. In manila is a setting page, just scroll. On this page is a "All settings" button on the left side. Select it and you are in the "old" settings dialog.

Is there a tool?

Yes, but with "High Quality" some videos stops after 1-2 minutes to load the next part. But until this moment the video is smooth. With "fast download" I haven't this problem and the whole video is smooth without any pause.

Select "fast download"

Lexisgoo Dictionary problem on HP ROM's

David, i have been using your ROMs for sometime and have to say that they are exceptional. I am currently testing v-3 HP. Thanks for all your hard work.

Just waiting for WM6.5 to be improved, as i find it rather sluggish at the moment.

Is anyone experiencing issues with Lexisgoo Dictionary with the HP ROMS, i.e v2 and v3 HP? Any menu pop ups seem to disappear very quickly. This was fine with ROMs 6.5, not to be confused with WM6.5.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mickael91210:
Thanks David, it is simply the best ROM I used !

Is somebody with the same problem : I disable TF3D by Settings/Today to make a modification, after I can't go to "settings" by the Start Menu? I'm forced to use Total Commander Windows/manila.exe and go to "Settings" in TF3D to activate it on "Today".

If you can access to "Settings" by Start Menu I will do a Hard Reset.

Thanks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dolohan:
congratulation, its really the best rom i used for now. i especialy appreciate the new album that behave like iphone's one. smooth quick. a pleasure to watch picture.

the fact is that actionscreen is useless for me. is there is a way to remove it ? didnt find anything in startup menu :/
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dgen:
Okay great rom Davideuck :)

Everything I've installed works like a charm...and fast :)

Only one minor problem: The battery drainage is enormous :p (r 1.10.25.25)

Again...thanks for the hard work you put in this rom!

-edit-

battery drainage due to wireless setting 'best performance'? :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jestreb:
Back to Davide HP!

Finally, all things important to me has been fixed.

Album rotate photos normaly

Opera rotates as it should and without crashing

Sound notification works on incoming call

Home button works in manilla

Didnt try any other things because I can live without them.

Viewing .mp4 movies in included new 3.0 album is much smoother and entire ROM is faster than one that i had before.

I like new start menu, It takes me 15 seconds to get used to It. To access all settings through settings tab in TF3D is normal thing for me now, after half an hour with CVSD V3.

Thank you for great rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nanoo-eg:
how can do this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lucas0511:
Elim, thanks for your feedback. What I actually strive for is to call up WinMobile settings page - not Manila - from inside the start menu. In V2 there was a shortcut built in. Havent tried your suggestion, but assume one cannot call WM settings with manila.exe - and settings.page sounds more like a Manila page.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stefh:
Is it possible to add Dutch as an input language?

Somehow if I use the 14 input languages CAB, T9 doesn't work anymore, and the keyboard does not respond any more. So it seems it only worked on my original firmware.

That would be really nice. Using V2 since it came available and I am very very happy with it.

Happy to flash to V3, but I am done with installing everything and importing my contacts over and over again ;)

But it sounds really promising!

Thanks for your hard work!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Yes and in my old ROM it goes to the settings page of manila :confused:

That is NOT correct. On the settings page from manila is a direct link to the WM settings.

That is correct. It opens the settings page from the manila interface but there is a button to open the WM settings.

But maybe someone has a direct link to the WM settings? I am not. :(

Hi, do you mind clarifying this a bit more?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Seven_PRX:
TY for the new version; testing it atm.

1 big issue I ran into:

When I go to Messages, and create a New text message, then under Menu > Add Recipient; I can *only* select from my Contacts & Company Directory; but *not* from my SIM card.

Can anybody else see the contacts on their SIM there, or it's a bug? Personally, I want to keep my contacts only on my SIM, because it makes the flashing easier, and if my phone would break, I would still have all contacts on my SIM...

oh, and edit: having an option Settings under Programs/in the new Start Menu would be nice indeed, so we don't have to go to the Manilla Homescreen, Settings, All Settings :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miniterror:
going to give it a try

hope i can get used to the rhodium style

i think the start menu looks a little bit like iphone on this way

if i cant get used to going back V2_HP topaz version

still thanks for this great rom the first impression is that it is really faster than v2 topaz version

youre the man:cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Okay.

1. A shortcut is a normal text file with the extension "lnk". You can see this in the directory "\Windows\Start Menu". All links here a shortcuts to applications somewhere on your device.

2. The text has the syntax (form):

([Iconnumber]#)"[Path][Filename]" [Parameters]. Therefor you can open a shortcut with any editor.

3. The explorer on a windows mobile can be used to open any directory. Therefore use the directory path as an parameter.

4. To create now a shortcut which start the explorer and assign to open a special directory you can:

a) create a text file with any editor and store this file under ""\Windows\Start Menu\...". Don't forget that the file must have the extension "lnk"

b) or copy an existent shortcut and edit it.

The text/link must have therefore the following form:

"24#"\Windows\fexplore.exe" windows\start menu\programs\Games".

PS. There is also the possibility to change the icon of this links but I dind't check it. Therefore the syntax is:

"[Path][Filename]?[Path to iconfile][Filename of iconfile],[Iconnumber in the iconfile]" [Parameters]

A iconfile here is a EXE or DLL file.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Canaan:
Thanks for your help Elim. What i tried earlier was to go to windows\start menu\programs\Games with Total Commander, tap and hold the games folder, create shortcut, then enter the path "24#"\Windows\fexplore.exe" but that didn't work. I'll try your above advice now. Thanks again.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lucas0511:
Elim, to clarify for all, in my "old" V2 the Settings button in Start took me directly to WinMobile settings, in the WinMobile environment - not the new Manila version of these settings, with one more button for "All Settings".

What I and many others I am sure would like to achieve is Start/Settings directly to Winmobile Settings (the "old" interface), instead of scrolling to the settings tab in TF3D, then pushing "More" in that page, and finally reaching the full list of settings, in WinMobile.

David had this in his old V2 - or was I the only one to have it, maybe after using Matze`s German language files to change interface to German?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ekerbuddyeker:

Anyone know how I can revert to NORMAL colors in email etc (not the light to dark screens which find hard to read)?

You Tube App & Video Performance

Hi All,

Really looking forward to flashing this ROM. Just a few of questions to the people who have already flashed it:

1. What is the You Tube performance like? Is their any lag? You Tube worked brilliant on my stock ROM but doesn't work great in some of the Cooked Roms I've tried.

2. General video performance - e.g. watching a Divx in CorePlayer. Again this wasn't a problem for me in the stock ROM but video performance not so great in some of the cooked ROMs.

3. How to create links for programs that are already installed on micro sd card so that they show up in the list of installed programs?

Really looking for a bug-free ROM and I hope this is it!

Thanks

so facebook interegration isnt included because HTC stripped it out of the retail topaz rom? Am I correct?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Canaan:
Tried that but not working. The games folder shows up on the list of programs and i can add it to the start menu but when i click on it, it takes me back to the Home screen.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
I am wrong, HTC hide it, thats all (see @hazard.za) and it ...

EDIT: ...work. I can login to facebook and after this I can see my events :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] darthbane2k:
I think you are confusing me. I dont mean the social networking engine which has youtube and facebook upload from HTC album, I mean the actual interegation in the new manila - where you can pull a photo, status update and event for a contact from facebook
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fifo:
this BUG remains in V3. Nobody answered me before, I am trying again. Can anybody help me fix this problem please ? :confused:

Except this, no problems for since yesterday flashing it. Another big thanks to you Davideuck.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Haha, after I read my posting, I think a little moment to add which facebook function I mean.

Before we missunderstand again, I add some pictures :)

Is this the function you mean?

EDIT 1:

#1: Event page when I came from "All people"

#2: Opera with facebook after I click on "Me - my Updates" on #1

#3: Event page when I select my own contact

#4: Enother dialog when I click on "Link Profile" on #3

PS. These dialogs also shows current events etc. I only use for the pictures an empty profile.

Not just emails, unicode seems to be missing throughout the whole manila - If SMS is sent through manila in Russian, it goes as ??????. It's not possible to find a Russian contact. If I disable manila, unicode is back in place. Additionally, that manila is a real memory eater. So, I disabled it and enjoy the rest of the features :-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mrmomoman:
I am not sure if this bug has been reported.

When sending a picture via email the keyboard layout does not revert back to a full keyboard. It uses the keyboard layout for inputting email address. I mean that is does not contain the spacebar instead it has the .com in its place instead of the space bar.

I am keeping this on as I like it. Resource hog yes but stable enough for me.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xdaman85:
The new version has removed curtains and changed the slider with a transparent one, this looks very cool in home page, however it looks a bit tacky in pictures and programs tab, is there a cab available that can revert it back to the way it was in version 2?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
Yes I have that but the problem is when I try to login it will not allow me to put my full email address! so example I can only enter anyname@hotmail.co.u and that's it I can't enter "k" so to answer your question NO the facebook integration does not work for me!:-(

I don't really get why this is a problem: You have to tap twice to get to the settings - no matter which way:

"Classic method": Click the start button, click settings.

"New method": Click the settings tab in Manila, click "All Settings".

I don't have to click "More" as you state... :confused:

Do you think i need to do another hard reset? I have soft reset several times. When I am sending out SMS text I cannot get the keyboard with the space bar. I get the .com and the "/" where the space is.
