Old Start Menu and Programs in Manila

I think this post went unnoticed b/c I see alot of complaints about the Start Menu. Here are the registry edits to revert back to the original start menu and to add the programs tab back in Manila:

To enable "old" Start Menu (Disable new manila start menu):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu\Enable ManilaStartMenu =dword:00000000

To show favorites programs page on manila:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\Manila://programs.page.hidden =dword:00000000

Now you can keep the bells and whistles of the Rhodium Rom and still have the old start menu. Thanks to JPL69 for this info!

David, you might want to add this to the first post.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Yeah but don't click on one of the icons. First the program is started but also the start menu pops up :eek: Here is something missing for the old program page.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Blessed HD:
Same annoying problem happened to me :mad:

other than that; GREAT ROM !

Many MAny thanks Davideuck ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] IPatty:
Yeah you're right. The start menu programs work fine, but when you select a program from the programs tab, the start menu pops up before it launches. Hmmmm. :confused: I'll try to find a solution.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] GoldCoin:
Good news. I think you're the first one who don't have any bugs
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MAMeingast:
Hey Elim! You finally had your chance of answering this dumb question! But your explanation is still to complicated... I think it should be as follows:

1. Pick up your HTC Touch HD.

2. Make sure you have a firm grip on the device.

3. Head for the next bridge in the area - preferably above water or atleast a few stories high.

4. Throw the device off the bridge as hard as possible!

5. Leave us alone with these endlessly repetitive questions that have been answered before!

I just flashed this ROM and I am getting pictures in caller ID, but a blank square instead of the default image for those that I don't have pics for. One thing that doesn't work for me is the ability to cycle through phone numbers in the phone tab for my contacts that have more than one number. You used to be able to thumb right or left to change the number but it just stays on the default or whatever number they called in on.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
No, I also have no bugs :)

But I call not all my not-fulfilled wishes a bug :cool:

Okay, I've got a cure for my problem.

Someone tell me how to remove calendar from the home screen?

When I use the calendar in menu, it pulls up a different calendar than on the home screen or tabs.

So, how do I remove calendar from the home screen below call history?

Thanks,

Mark
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
I would rather ask you to try a reflash and a hard reset without the SIM or the storage card. I am sure your issue will be resolved. try a soft reset before trying out this.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] orangecrush:
Great idea... never thought about doing it without the card.

Thanks very much.

Mark
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] orangecrush:
I know everyone likes the TF3D application but after reflashing at least 2 dozen times over the last week trying different ROMS, I thought I'd give my .02.

I really like David's ROMs but unfortunately, I'm having too many quirks using either Topaz or Rhodium ROMS.

I realize that they're never going to be perfect but it's too much for me to have quirks since I use my phone for my business. I don't have time to wait for call history tabs to present themselves, etc, etc.

Anyway, I dug up some of my old software, Spb phone suite to be exact and disabled TF3D.

I reverted back to David's V1 and memory usage in the low 30's, I get the best of both worlds. I have a phone that fits my needs and phone software (V1) that FLIES.

It's GREAT to click on a tab and BAM, it's up.

No errors, no quirks, just David's reliable V1 software without the flashy TF3D. (which was never really as reliable as it was flashy for me)

My .02....

A little bug,when I rotate opera page,the phone pad show on the screen at the same time,why?Anybody else?How can I solve this problem.thx
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sas90850:
I tried both roms and found some bugs which listed below:

Summary of bug in rhodium rom

1. Internet sharing shortcut problem.

2. Youtube video playing lagging.

3. Home button problem.

4. Alarm problem. When I turn off alarm using V3 Manila, alarm go off again. It cant be turn off.

Summary of bug in Topez rom

1. Internet sharing shortcut problem.

2. Youtube video playing lagging.

3. Dailer Pad caller ID white image when marking a call.

4. Alarm problem. When I turn on alarm using V3 manila, alarm will not go off.

However, I go to window built-in alarm function and turn it on, it will go off. This bug actually happen all ROMs if ROM chef use Topez version.

Any idea?

Before i upgrde to Davideuck_V-1_H.P i had not problem setting up my hotmail. But it seems now the interface has change and when i set up my hotmail, it requires me to enter the server for the IMAP or POP3 server name ...

Do u have any problem on this ROM ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
I use to have similar issue sometime back. after a lot of research, realized that it is caused due to the Topbar icons. once I uninstalled it, every thing worked fine. if you did install thi, remove it and chk it.

Rhodium bugs

Davide,

Thank you for the great ROM. It works quite well, although I've got two remarks:

1. On Rhodium ROM v2, it is impossible to switch between the cities in the weather tab, the two small arrows present in the previous version are simply absent.

2. Alreader does not remember its settings and fails to load previusly saved ones, so I had to install a version on may SD card.

And thank you again for the great job!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] marco899:
Just slight with your finger.

I love this rom compared to others I have tried.

...

the huge amount of memory it takes up (and some memory leaks which leave it at 80% at times with nothing else running)

the new icons for some of the apps. If we had the orginal stock generic icons, i would be a happy man. I have enabled the original start menu and these new icons look so out of place.

Hoping for fixes in next version otherwise excllent work.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BigCall:
Can anyone to explain how disable the New Menu Enhancements and New Notification enhancements.

I like new manila v 3 but this 2 things,personaly, i don't like.

How to create a shortcut to Games folder?

I'm trying to create a shortcut to the games folder so I can add it to the new start menu, and I try'd with touch commander, but don't work, every time I start the shortcut from the start menu I get a message saying "The file 'Games' cannot be opened. But if I start the shortcut from the folder where I put it, it works.

Anyone know how to do this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] GoldCoin:
LOL. a "not-fulfilled wishes" are :

I want my ROM to make me a coffee every morning

I want my ROM to take me to mars

I want my ROM to give me a nice handjob

Well these are some "not-fulfilled wishes" that i can live with.

But.. when some buttons doesn't work properly, or when i get error messages

when trying to access to simple functions on my device - these are BUGS.

I really want this ROM because it looks amazing but until now only few confirmed that they managed to make it work without any problems.

I would like to try it by myself but i'm too worried about not being able to

restore my original ROM back.

I tried a lot of Roms the last days and this is definitely the best rom. it is stable, smooth and I love the direct link from start to the programs.

But I have a ringtone probleme. When I use my HTC in connection with my bluetooth headset sometmise my HTC rings and sometimes not.

Is this a already known bug? Who has the same problem? thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dinopall:
Try : delete in directory windows\startup the link to msvc and then soft reset.

This solution is OK for me.

The MSVC do not really function in this ROM.

Ok i've flashed this and i must say how amazed i am.

This is really good and so far no bugs at all.

Do i need to hard-reset my device after flashing?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dextrosan:
It is advised to do so.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gallygally:
I want to ask how to install the new manila from post 2 on my Blackstone without flashing the new ROM as I do not want to flash HSPL for warranty reasons.

I suppose that I have to enter the phone memory when the phone is in bootloader mode.

Thanx in advance

PS: Somebody before me asked this question but I did not find the answer.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] barbapappa_86:
I think you can flash to orginal SPL later if youre phone need service.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:
Can be bugs but must not. Sorry, but I work to long in IT buisness, to account everything for a bug.

For example the buttons can be a bug or only a new specification from HTC for this buttons. They work but in another way.

I haven't seen any error message until now. So I don't know where you taking about.

This ROM has fewer bug for me then my stock ROM. But take a look into the wiki pages, there are most stock roms and you don't have to make a backup by yourself.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gallygally:
Well, I need to extract my SPL because the one uploaded in the Blackstone wiki is not actually working. Therefore, it will be a lot easier for me to just install the manila from post 2.

However, if there isn't any chance, I will have to flash HSPL.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Elim:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] foulke:
I didn't get any bugs yet.(I'm on Topaz V2 HP)

I'm using it since 24 hours, and no problem seen.

I asked a question about a color top bar. Because in Topaz V1 there was nice color and percentage for battery level. But in this version I had some problem sometimes with the dialer that was messy : not covering the full screen.

I've read in these threads that the problem cam for the top bar. So I guess this is the reason of the battery stuff in V2. Am I right ?

As some others said, flip_it is a little too sensitive. That's why I disabled rotation for Manila.

I've switched to French Manila using "Duttys Rom HD French Manila.cab", and did the modification in the registry : everything OK !

The new notification manager works better than in V1.

I've tested GPS, BT, Wifi browsing, and everything is fine so far ;)

I'm just affraid of the memory consumption.

Really a big thanks to Davideuck !

Finally I'm wondering what I could expect in V3 :D

Ah ! I've found : CVSD instead of MSVC.

I have a question :

Why is V2 Topaz zip 30Mb bigger than V1 Topaz ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dextrosan:
I'm not sure why the colored battery was removed, but I installed it on my V2 Rhodium and it's working without any problems. If you want to try it, just go to this thread and install "FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.cab"

Hope it works for Topaz too.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dannyng:

Copy to device and to your start menu, rename it to .lnk.

Another question: How can I block autorotation during my phone calls?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RRibeiro:
Nice, thanks.

It works great. Now I can use the new menu system and have access to all programs like in the old menus.

Great.

The ROM is great, however, youtube videos do not play well. In fact, on my original rom, after installing flashlite 3.1 the same thing happens.

Does anybody else experience the same problem?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
This is a known issue on both the ROMs. David will fix it in the next release. So, hold put.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gallygally:
Well, I suppose that adobe should fix it, it is their software.

However, if there is a way to remove the flash lite 3.1 player will be a good temporary solution.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] foulke:
Thanks for the tip.

I installed and it works. Like on V1 I only have color for the battery meter.

But at least I have my percentage.

Anyone knows why V2 ZIP is bigger than V1 ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dcoales:
Hi David,

Thanks very much for another great ROM.

I have only one issue and there is probably nothing much you can do about it as it is only for us bods in the UK. When I try to access the bbc.co.uk/iplayer site and select a program to watch it launches the new Streaming Media player (which looks much nicer than the old one) says it is buffering but never gets above 0%. Finally I get a timeout message.

I was previously using your V5 where this worked perfectly.

If this is just a bug in the new Streaming Media app I can always go back to V5 which for me has always been the pinnacle of perfection anway so I'm not really worried - the new Streaming Media app does look good though if there is a way to make it work.

cheers,

David

If I recall correctly the whole phone canvas app is called "cprog.exe" or something like that. At least it was in the Topaz roms.

EDIT: Fixed the name of the prog as per next posters correction
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RRibeiro:
You have to add "cprog.exe" to Flip It.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aleks9:
Great ROM. I think this is the best nowadays.

I would like to know if someone knows how to set the same background in all tabs with this ROM.

Would like to translate some of the Manila files that have not yet been translated to German. Has anybody extracted the xml manila files from David's share, and is willing to share them for translation. Have attached an example in need of translation. Screen after applying Atze's German cab for Dutty Manila V3, which already translates most of Manila V3.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gadgetuk437:
Yeah, that annoyed the bejezus outta me too... until I realised it was a new 'feature'!

Now, instead of thumb-sliding to select the other contact's numbers, you tap the miniture contact-card to the right of the contact's name and you're whisked off to a new page where you can choose which number/email address to use. Kinda back to the oldskool really.

Installazione solo tramite microSD?

x Davide, e altri:

ho appena scaricato il file zip, ma ho visto che vi solo il file x l'installazione tramite SD, o sbaglio?

magari se esiste qualcuno mi puo' indicare il link x l'installazione " normale"?

p.s.di solito le rom di Davide avevano anche il secondo file...::)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jentech:
Yes, you're right, that's the way it is in the Rhodium versoin but I'm using the Topaz version and it shows the oldstyle 'h' or 'w' or 'm' with arrows to indicate more numbers. I guess the background coding is from Rhodium and the face is only Topaz.

Hi arby,

first , if you write in Italian no one can give you reply. this is a rule that we need to follow...........

second: have you another ROM stored in your folder? if yes:

keep BlackStone Custom RUU, or maybe you have Blackstone RUUWrapper....

delete from that folder all the other files and copy inside ruu signed.nbh from Davide

after this run the RUU and you ll be able to flash your phone.

if you dont have any Wrapper, see the att.

Have been using the Rhodium ROM for a few days now and it has been almost flawless.

The only problem I have is that the phone freezes sometimes when launching S2P. About 50% of the time. And I have to pull out the battery to fix it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Arthenik:
I used to have the same problems with S2P. I presume you have it set to start upon inserting your heeadphones jack? If yes, you can solve it by setting S2U2 to not flip in Flip It and always unlocking it before you insert your headphones. It hasn't frozen on me since I've started doing this.

Manila Translation problem with V-2

DAVIDEUCK do you have any idea, why in your V-1HP translation .cab of Manila is working absolutely correct, BUT using the same .cab with your V-2HP causes 70% of translated words doesn't show correct?? There is allways IDS_XX... instead of translated word.

The thread with the translated .cab can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=490844

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] davideuck:
The reason is simple, I've deleted the languages files from manila, becouse they are a huge amount of files(947 files), and the rom goes better(noticeably better), deleting them.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dogans:
Thanks for the response, but I don't use S2U2. Just S2P.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MAMeingast:
You can disable the autolaunching of S2P when plugging in headphones and rotation of S2U2 in the settings of S2U2!
