enhanced menu on 20**** rom

Hello,

I use enhanced menu on a diamond htc rom 2.03.406, and it's work fine.

For this i'm extract gwes.exe from cloudy v1 rom (i think that work with other gwes.exe, if they com from a 21*** rom).

You musty install sdkcert.cab and after you past in windows directory the gwes.exe file, with total commander or resco explorer.

You make soft reset and all is good.

Tchao.

wapvirus, will you PLEASE make a blue theme to work on VGA? i got a blue theme on my phone and I would love to make my HTC menus match also! I tried using the below image but when I replace the original and soft reset, the menus no longer work... i had to go back to the original green! :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
I don't think anyone fixed it i installed a condensed font which much improves the problem but still not fixed
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Ok here is the VGA blue Copy both files to your windws directory then soft reset and your done :)

your old graphics don't work coz they are for WVGA :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chino331:
thanks for the blue theme! when I put them in the \windows folder and soft reset, I had the blue but I also had lines on the top and bottom of the menu (see screen shots). this is what I read that causes it in previous posts:

"from what i can tell, the new skin isn't aligned correctly to match the original skin. if you compare both side by side, you'll notice that their locations don't match and extra things were added to the new skin that weren't in the original."

I've attached the original green, could you make sure it's all lined up? I already tried checking it myself but my photoshot skills SUCK! thank you SO much! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chino331:
I couldn't post the original file in my previous post so here it is in this one (incase you wanted to try to see if they were aligned right). also in the zip file you said copy both files to my windows directory - there was only 1 file! again, thank you for helping me out on this!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
This is nothing to do with alignment the small blue parts at the bottom of the Menu.bmp are the wrong size and they are used to make the bars for d-pad scroll they were wrong size it's hard for me as no VGA device to test on
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chino331:
these still aren't working - I've posted screenshots of what the recent ones look like!

Fully Working QVGA word wrap issue fixed

This is my fully working QVGA version

Fixed all graphics

Fixed word wrapping issue

What i did :

Changed the font for a Very condensed true type font as QVGA has less room on the bars and font size

Changed all graphics keeping black bars changed arrows for black as stand out more changed radio led for a nicer glossy green one :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mbarvian:
you are the man sir!

how'd you get the text wrapping fixed, was it the font?

thanks a bunch man :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eboelzner:
Here is a Menus.bmp that has 3d arrow bars...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mbarvian:
that's interesting

i would've never guessed it was the font

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] manoli20:
ok, another question.... to get the gwes to work on my TP with Build <2100, ive sort of come to the conclusion, that the only way to do this is to flash it in the rom... is there no "Move and Overwrite" function to do this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mac_es:
Ok,

Here you have the version I use. It has th dll modified by chanonbravo. It was posted in the thread of his rom.

It is green based, quite accurate to the original. I have no issues whith it:

I have the correct font

I haven't text wrapping error, though if it is a very large string it will warp it abruptly (it will take all the space)

They are oem, too lazy to pass them to a cab.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Read the first post's in this thread for all the dependencies build 21000 and above also gwes.exe and dll's i think ??

My version works on my build 21o15 just must be one of the lucky ones

Also ROM builders will be including this in there roms soon so you could always wait for one of them
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
did you, by any chance, try Segoe Condensed Bold?

I'm just wondering why the font you used does not render smoothly. Is it a cleartype issue -- or what?

very promising!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
I have tested a whole load of fonts i think only True type work and the Font i used came out the best for size (text wrapping) i am sure someone will crack this problem,But for now it's working for QVGA

Segoe Condensed Bold size 14
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mac_es:
I have ALREADY posted a dll whithout text wrapping for QVGA! The dll was modified by chanonbravo
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Have you tested this DLL and font as all i have tested most in this thread and they still Text Wrap with large words that's why i was messing around with the font a solution to the problem ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JoOoSs:
Can you give me a cab who can works with my Elf ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
Thanks very much. I figured you had already tried Segoe Condensed Bold since it is part of the Segoe family which is now a primary UI font family used by Microsoft. I just wanted to ask for sure :) thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
Can you translate this for me please?

I know dlls are essential system files and are part of the elements that control hidden functionality. But are you saying that you have pulled everything together into a CAB file for QVGA users? If so, can I get a link please? If not, would you consider making a CAB file, so dumb noobs like me can just automate the installation? thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
ok this cab file is using the moded dll files as described (posted by mac_es )in your last post can you please post your findings back here (screen shot) showing long menu item as i can't test this my version is cooked into rom

Ok this version doesn't work for me still has the text wrapping problem so that was a waste of time for me any one else want to try this version the dll files are much larger than originals but no change that i can see in menu (so at least my version works)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
Nonetheless, I will test it on my T-Mobile WING, but it will be in one more day, because tonight I am flashing to a new ROM. But if I get chance to, I will test it BEFORE I flash. Thanks for assembling into cab, even if you're saying it didn't work for you. appreciate it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
wapvirus -- i'm at work so not able to read thoroughly right now. I tried the cab you made: it wouldn't install, saying it was not signed, etc. So then I tried installing one of your w@p cabs which I downlaoded a few days ago. It installed. I reset. Didn't see anything take effect. Wondered if conflicts with QuickMenu, so I selected from QuickMenu Options to "not run at startup", "not replace system menu", "not register win key" .... then I soft reset again.

Still, I see nothing in the way of large menu replacement.

(a) maybe I missed the whole concept, or

(b) I am failing to activate something

(c) install;ing it wrong (i installed to device, not storage card)

(d) my phone simply cannot use this app.. I have t-mobile wing, not a very robust phone model (HTC Herald)... and so i went back to first post in this thread:

I'm just going to assume my WING does not meet this spec. I'm a newb when it comes to this stuff. When I read this thread the other day, thoroughly, I *thoiught* (but probably wrong) that when people asked for a QVGA version, and then someone supplied it, that it would work on phones like the Wing/Herald.

Anyway, thanks again for making a cab to test. /qs

Anyone can answer my question : why the Rhodium menu doesn't work on my elf ? (Build 21028) ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Please post your results after you do because I too have a Wing and am curious to see if this works.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] quicksite:
Well I tried it on my Wing, and as I mentioned upthread, I saw no menu enhancements at all. Nothing.

Except in one place, and it was just an odd collision of some kind of code:

Within my iContact (Burt's Edition), the Call History was suddenly in that "Impact Condensed" typeface, but at like 12pt -- normal size of the text. I tried various apps and I could not see that font show up anywhere else, and for sure not in menus and popups.

Odd, huh?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mac_es:
As they are modified dlls they have been signed whith sdks certificate so, you will need an unlocked secutiry rom or cook it. I'm using it, and it doesn't wrap the text
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Thanks for the information, saved me the trouble of trying to find the space to install it on my Wing.

could someone with a QVGA device please try the .cab file attached. It should have no issues, and has the default look.

all credit goes to mac_es and chanonbravo

hopefully it should be the last version for QVGA. :)

you must have build of 21000 or newer!

please post your feedback ;)

Same here. I tried it on a T-Mobile WING, running newest ROM from Herald/WIng chef Ivan; build # 21018.

Won't install.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mancom:
I have too say, it didnt work for mi eighter. I had Elfin with Build 21028.1.6.0.

OFF topic: This build is strange in many ways. Its some kind of mix or something. It looks like it was takien from X1 Experia, coz its showing song titles on bt headsets, ex. HBH-DS980. And this is only build that can do that.

Strange build indid.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ivanmmj:
21041/21042. It started out as 21018, but I changed it a little while ago.

I've been looking for a way to make it work, too, but so far I haven't found any way.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mbarvian:
Sorry about that one guys,

this one should install just fine ;)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Appu:
Hi all.. is there any way we can edit or hack through a file so that it works on builds prior to 21000.. wat is soo special about 21000+ anyway?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dipje:
Updated graphics core, and more importantly: new support for developers to 'hook' into certain system actions, and intercept clicks on special areas.

Things like the Rhodium ManilaStartMenu, Menu Enhancement and other new tricks use this core to change special elements of the OS.

This core is located in the gwes.exe file, but as far as I know and heard, you can't simply copy this over. The real working is still using / cooking a rom with a proper newer build AFAIK.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] letama:
Regarding this not working on elf or other devices, I did some experiments with my diamond. I usually have a rom without manila, and I was not able to make it work either.

Just to test, I added manila package to my rom, it didn't do better as manila doesn't launch for some problem elsewhere.

But it started working as soon as I launch manila manually. So it seems that there is a dependency somewhere with manila 3D, and that manila has to be running to have it working.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mbarvian:
what build is your ROM?

i have QVGA and no Manila and it's working fine

It's a 21042 SYS / 21041 XIP, ported from Topaz rom.

It's very strange then. Maybe some kind of initialization done somewhere is missing. My rom is very light and doesn't have much HTC packages, I tried a few times and each time I launch manila, the menu starts working.

Could you list me your oem packages ? I could try to add some to match your configuration.

I tried the "Copy the new gwes.exe" trick but it did not work for me. it would just hang my screen at the white boot screen.

In Settings->System->About-> The Build is in parenthesis i have : Build 21109.5.0.0 Mikado) But it don't work (Sorry for my bad english...) Why ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
by default, the newer builds of the menu enhancement checks to see if manila is running. the hook is still there, but if manila isn't running, it'll just call the default windows menu instead of the enhanced version. there's a registry setting to change this. goto HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMenus and create a new DWORD value:

EnableManilaCheck = 0

a soft reset isn't required. the menu enhancement will work now regardless if manila is running or not.

i've tried build 21109 and it never worked for me. i don't think that build number is even legit considering the latest build for 6.1 is 21043.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ivanmmj:
I wonder if there is something wrong with build 21041/42 also, as I can't get it to run the menu, either... but then again, the notification enhancement works just fine.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
with the later builds, i could only get the menu enhancement to work by cooking it into the rom. there must be some initial hooking done when the rom initializes after a fresh flash. installing the menu enhancement after that process won't register the hook. funny enough, i remember it working when i installed the menu enhancement on build 21015. something must've changed in the later builds. the notification enhancement works for me without cooking it in.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ivanmmj:
I cook all my ROMs. But I just realized that the RGU wasnt being registered due to a mispell. lol I'll try that again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dsixda:
Sorry to chime in so late to this thread, but I finally got the Menu Enhancement working after cooking it into the ROM. The CAB file had not worked for me.

But, I noticed that my kitchen used a different HTCScroll.dll -- it was the one used by the Rhodium Notifications.. this version is a little bit bigger than the HTCScroll.dll found in the Menu Enhancements CAB (93KB, compared to 91KB).

Here is the DLL attached. Copy it to \Windows and reboot, and possibly your Menu Enhancement will work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Röchelhilpert:
I have cooked the tachi version in my rom ... it works fine.

But i have an issue in Landscape.

The Menü dons´t fit´s the screen. It´s a little bit to big.

I wonder because tachi is also real vga.

Possible it´s not designed for landscape ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sheennick123456:
can you post the original OEMs of "tachi"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
the tachi is still in development, so the programs on it are still considered a work in progress. the default values for the menus in landscape mode is still for a wvga screen.

HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMenus

"ItemHW"="440,740,72,73"

"NaviHW"="440,46,740,46"

740 is the width of the menu in landscape mode. on mine, i changed that to 580, and it looks fine in landscape mode. the version of the menu enhancement found on the tachi is 1.0.19133520. the latest version i could find was 1.0.19141731 which is from a topaz rom. the dimensions of the menus can be easily changed through the registry.
