[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tim Alsop:
I just downloaded and installed (onto R8 rom) version 3.65 of Max Theme Maker - when I run it I get an error which is not obvious. I therefore wondered if anybody else has managed to make this theme maker work with R8 rom ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] The Boss:
I use it on R8. The screenshots I posted of my screen is made from that program. I use the 3.64 version.

Remember the first time you use the program - go to the Utility-tab and make a Back Up of your manilla files. Then if anything goes wrong, you can allways restore your manilla by pressing Fast Restore.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Yes, the soft reset is new, it used to work without a soft reset.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tim Alsop:
I cannot get as far as Utility tab because when I run MaxTTM I get a screen asking me to press Enter button - when I press Enter I get an error screen showing a lot of info which looks like a Windows error. Were there any special instructions for installing on Dutty R8 rom ? I didn't install NetCF 3.5 because when I tried it told me there was already a later version installed - should I just let it install anyway or was I correct to not install NetCF ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] The Boss:
Try the 3.64 version. That works for me. I have not tryed version 3.65.

I have not installed any NetCF. I have the MaxTTM cab on my sd card and every time I flash I just run the cab from the sd card. I install the program on sd card too.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tim Alsop:
That worked - thanks. It looks like 3.65 version does not work on this rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pete_thomson:
That would explain why Google Maps shows it trying to pull info from 41 trillion sats!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
its over two days and havent seen any major bugs reported yet, which makes me happy, I know R8 might be a tad slower comparing to the recent ones but its due to me fixing outlook notes synchronisation which has to re-edit the xip for it.

I will do a clean version without manila in next rom since I;, happy with R8.

thanks for all your support:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] barisahmet:
Bug with messaging with specific contact names.

To reproduce it:

- Save a contact named "Bla Bla <3" without quotes.

- Receive a message from this contact.

- Open messages in manila.

- Tap on message.

No messages appear on the screen, and you can NOT answer. You can acces it from "All messages" section tho. And you can reply either.

I dunno more specificly how to reproduce this bug with what kind of symbols in names. I think you will figure it out.

Sorry if already known bug, I checked but didnt see any. Thanks for the rom btw, it is best for everyday use.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
i will wait for new build yes,

but I'm using 23009 with 21928 shell32.exe and now you can also hold and drag any icons and folder anywhere on wm6.5 start menu:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] epimazzo:
Hi Dutty!

Will you still finish the upcoming one over 219xx as announced or will you wait for a newer build?:)

I see an opportunity to look around these integrated features over touch.:cool:

Take care!;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zenkinz:
yes, I've actually highlighted this in the earlier ROMs (R4/R5 and v3.8/v3.9XT), but guess it went hidden due to excessive number of posts in the threads.

hopefully the stickies on the bug/links would help others from having to spend unnecessary hours just to find out this.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] 2 die 4:
does anyone have problems with their battery life, mine dies in like a day now, and on 6.1 roms it lasted for about 6 days!!!!!????
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] enyaj:
Yes my battery only lasts a day. But it's fine with me coz I think there's nothing much that can be done there. As long as the ROM is close to perfect.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
No problems with battery here, mine drains as expected given the amount of daily use. The only way my battery would ever last 6 days is if I never used my HD...and this is simply not an option :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aromatical:
Yep

Does ithelp to let you know that I have a SouthWing SH 105 Bluetooth Headset.

MSVC works from the phone ok, but can't get the right combination of buttons to make it work from the headset.

Does anyone have any ideas?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
Symbols for letters?

Has anyone experienced symbols being used for words when typing in Opera? When I want to search it displays correctly but when im typing in Facebook some symbols show on the screen instead of letters.:confused
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
I tested this and I'm getting the same result. I just went to xda and began posting a reply but it was typing in symbols :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fuzzywerewolf:
3.65 verson works fine using it with the layouts currently.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
you need to go in to opera config

its using the Wingding Font

you can change it to Tacoma in Fonts
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
I just uninstalled the custom font I installed previously and the problem went away.

I would prefer to continue using the font so I will try your method ozmoran.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] enyaj:
Experienced severe lag when scrolling through pics in the album(Manila) while listening to MP3's through Manila Music tab. Is that normal?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
It's working fine here, posting to xda.

Characters show up as they should.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tacginc:
What do you mean by combination of buttons? If you mean the talk button on the headset to activate the MSVC, then follow these instuctions I post in R7 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4196332#post4196332

Also, don't press and hold talk button, just press and release. The MSVC prompt will active in the headset.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
No lag here. I'm connected to wifi, listening to music in TF3D music tab and scrolling through pictures in the album.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
I have seen this a few times

Type opera:config (Im sure you know that already)

Look at CSS Font and Font :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
This method didn't work for me. The symbols are only corrected by uninstalling the custom font I've installed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
I will have a look at mine as Im using the Font you provided me so I will see if I have the same prob
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Well, I'm not sure what I did differently the second time around but I'm no longer typing in symbols and I still have my custom font installed.

The only setting that needed to be changed in opera:config was with the "Font" tab. The CSS Font was okay. I changed to Tahoma in two different locations and saved the changes. Then went back to xda (of course :)) and the symbols were gone. Thank you for the help with this one, I appreciate it!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tingen:
Hi Dutty,

I have tried but it only open for "Tom Extendede Menu" like if i go trough Start and Tools.

I need to open the program page in manila. There must be a solution.

Thank you for your replay and a great rom. Out is good, but home is best.:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
No worries, I just did the same on mine too ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mpf54:
I have been able to get it to activate voice command from the bluetooth headset but it is not send voise and audio via the headset. I still have to use the handset. I actually swithced to the non msvc version and installed the retail version and it works fine. Except for no incoming phone announcemants. Was able to get it working in R6 but not R8
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
I noticed something earlier when I enabled Tom Extended Menu Program Tab

When using that tab the soft keys freeze and show all settings and remove on all tabs

Soft reset fixed of course, I actually prefer 6.5 start setup now anyway but thought I would mention it
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tingen:
I found the solution:

HomeRSKPath=manilla://programs.page

:):):)

Duttys WM6.5 R8 No-Manila / Clean Version.

Things to know about this No-Manila/Clean Version.

Same build 23009 only difference is that now you can hold and drag any icons and folders on the Start Menu.

Manila Taken Out.

Other Manila related packages taken out.

Opera taken out.

Google Maps taken out.

Adobe Reader taken Out.

Mp3 Trimmer taken Out

Face Book Taken Out

SPB Screenshot Taken Out

This will be my No-Manila/Clean Version of my WM6.5 ROMs after some consideration. I will try and make cabs eventually but some of these cabs are already posted on XDA.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
No Manila version uploaded, uploading to rapidshare now

http://duttythroy.net/download-area.html?func=fileinfo&id=413
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] enyaj:
I was actually thinking of making a clean version request to you Dutty. I'm really looking forward to this clean version of yours of course this should run faster than R8 would that be correct? But would love a cab file for manilla though if thats possible. Just in case. There are really lots of stuff that I don't use on any ROM:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Have you tested this? I get a message that it's unsigned ...and can't be opened.

Solved: You also need to delete the key HKLM\Softare\HTC\Manila\"HomeRSKArguments"="contacts"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tingen:
It is working.

You must go to start>Tools> Tom Menu Extended

Make sure that "HTC Manila 2.1 - With programs tab" is on. Then soft reset.

Open Reg Edit and do this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]

"HomeRSKText"="Programs"

"HomeRSKPath"="manilla://programs.page"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aromatical:
Ok Thanks for everyone that helped me, I am now able to activate MSVC with the headset.

However I have a similar problem to the one shown in the quote above now, it does not appear to be sending audio via the headset, voice I am not sure of as it is difficult to ascertain.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
I'm not sure but you can cheked media in mssvc settings and see if that helps
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
You were too quick. Yes it works but you also need to delete the following key, otherwise it's added as an argument which causes the error:

HKLM\Softare\HTC\Manila\"HomeRSKArguments"="contacts"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] insectskin:
Hi there,

Is it just me or in start menu the wallpaper behind isn´t with that "shadow" anymore?

In R6 there was a big difference in start menu and with the device locked (color of wallpaper). If you know what i mean.

since i flashed R8 i cant remenber if in the start menu was always like this.

Is it? is there any cab to enable it again (make it darker)? or should i hard reset my device?

Thanks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aromatical:
I am being a bit stupid at the moment, how do I get to MSVC settings in manila?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aromatical:
It's OK, I found it under all settings, voice command.

I ticked media and it made no difference. Wonder what could be the problem?

It's still useable though but may be difficult when I am driving the car with the top down.

Sorry about the 2 posts in a row!!!!!!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] OldFellow:
Worldtime is not working well

I selected New York time and San Francisco time - both are the same!

Any ideas?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alkerion:
Hi,

Just a question before installing this ROM, can you use copy/paste on Contacts ?

On mine I can't (amazin how Manilla 2.1 is bad on several points), and I also cand add a phone number to an existing contact from a SMS, a new contact is always created, really annoying.

Thanks for your feedback

BR
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sean3:
Here you go. Copy the wallpaper into File Explorer->My Documents->My Wallpaper. Then Go to settings->Today->at the bottom tick "use this picture as the background"->select browse and find the name of the file, most likely called "Manilla%20wallpaper%20v2.jpg". Select it, exit and soft reset. Hope that helps.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] 4800:
Not sure if this has to do with the ROM but the MMS settings for vodafone in the Netherlands are wrong.

I need to change manually start/text/menu/MMS Options../Servers/Vodafone MMS/connect via setting from Vodafone MMS to Vodafone live!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Yes, unfortunately these are restrictions in the current version of Manila.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Have you updated the operator database before running connection manager?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dizzle:
Screen off during call

For anyone interested in getting the phone to shut off screen during call without installing a 3rd party app change the following reg to '1':

HKCU\ControlPanel\AllLEDMgr\LightSensorPollingEnable
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sean3:
I believe the program you're thinking of is may be Touch-In-Call.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zooklov:
Yes. and after you selected your correct background, use "tom menu extended"

Amazing soft included in this R8.

so u will be abble to use both "start" and "settings".

You'll find usual settings in manila under "settings" tab and "more"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fitaly:
Great Rom once again Dutty rules!

This rom made me change over to win6.5 for good!!

Does anyone know what the registry setting is so you can map win6.5 lock screen

button to manila home soft key. I know about endkey but it seems slower than the lock

button on windows start menu.

Thanks AGAIN DUTTY

Beer on the way
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] 4800:
Yes, it tells me its already the latest version when I do a manual update.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sean3:
I believe it is HKCU/ControlPanel/Backlight/AutoDeviceLockEnable DWORD=1. Then Soft reset. The lock screen should engage when you turn the screen off. It has been working for me. For some, it seems does not.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fowler002:
I managed to get this flashed using the uspl route after a few hours, the hspl route kept giving the 262 error and I didn't do the manual sspl incase hspl 1.56 didn't work afterwards.

updating the usb driver kept giving me the code10 error(driver can't be started or something like that) for which the xp instructions said is fine but I was doing it on vistax64, after a few time I got the code39 error(corrupted or missing driver), so in the end I used my other pc with win7x32(the drivers updated fine and spl 1.54 was flashed fine).

I ended up using the custom ruu method to flash the rom as got the img not found error even tho I'd put the blacimg.nbh to the route of my card, no other folder etc where on the card.

its prob been asked but where is the program tab on touchflo and in the start menu? I ended up installing mobile shell 3, been using it on the stock rom for the past 1 - 1 1/2 weeks) and finding it easier than touchflo(tho found the battery drains quite a bit faster even if I don't have the bluetooth or wifi on).

anyone tried s2p yet? I can't seem to get the album view(where it shows the album art(or lack there of) when you turn the phone to landscape) to work, I've tried gyrator 2(don't think its the current version, its a december 2008 version according to about). managed to do it once but the rest of the time the screen only flashes but nothing happens. can sweep to change the album ok tho.

so far installed spb mobile shell 3(as already mentioned), spb wireless monitor, s2u2, s2p(already mentioned), power sms(I'd backed up my sms messages before flashing and have restored them now),
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
This is a known problem with the timezones. Some city's are correct and some aren't. Unfortunately there isn't a fix as of yet.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Thank you for this Dizzle, works nicely! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] illuminated:
Copy/paste is available everywhere if you install FingerKeyboard. Once installed, after you select the text you wanna copy, press <Shift> and you'll see cut, copy and paste commands above few buttons (long press on buttons activates the text/commands written above the standard/big letters).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alkerion:
okay, I think I should understand that you also can't copy/paste on Contacts.

Are HTC putting lots of efforts to do something as unusable as the iPhone ?

I'm afraid I'll have to go back to the old but practical original rom....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alkerion:
This KB is just unusable for me, too big and not in Swiss French either.

I love the small Resco KB :-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alkerion:
How dumb I am, I haven't even thought to use CTRL key... you save my day (and my HD) ;-)

I love Resco because the KB is real small, that save lot of space on screen for useful data.

[off thread subject]

I'm really disapointed with the new Manila, in most if not all areas it's worse than V2.0, it's perhaps looking better, but it's less readeable and slower to use.

Most of the screens are bigger (taller), requiring more screen dragging -> lost of time

No more arrows on SMS, picture,... screens, really stupid to have removed them.

Saddly it seems to be even worse with Manila 2.5.... even the main screen doesn't display anymore the next appointments....

My HTC HD is becoming a toy for kids more than a professional and efficient device.

BR
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fitaly:
Thanks for the response Sean3, but I mean map a key so you can press it to lock screen the way u do with S2u2.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
The left soft key in WM programs menu has the lock function mapped to it. If you find it in the registry and copy it to the Manila softkey location it should work, I think ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] insectskin:
i think you didnt understand what i mean.

If you check dutty´s pics in the 1st post the background on the R6 in menu was like it shows but once you´re in the lock screen that same wallpaper gains full color.

This doesn´t happen in R8.

This is what i would like to have again in R8.

thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tboy2000:
Sure cxkx, here are a combination of some i designed and some i found. Matching folder icons.

Use an app called Restart to replace the icons.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tboy2000:
Yes i hate the new htc touch keyboard with no arrows. you also have to scan and tap on the suggested words at top of screen where as in old htc touch keyboard they appeared above the keyboard itself. also space bar does not always add a space. so frustrating.

Gone back to R3 which has the old keyboard and als0 default ms keyboard which has ctrl for cut copy and paste.

How can HTC design a keyboard with no CTRL key or gesture support? Shame on them.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cxkx:
Thanks! great icons, reStart messed my start menu in the past though, the order of icons would just change by itself all the time.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fitaly:
I have tried but I can't find anywhere in the registry a reference to WM programs menu lock function..

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fitaly:
Yes the endkey does lock the screen, but the WM programs lock screen button is for some reason twice as fast and don't really like the vibration with endkey.

Thanks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] insectskin:
This is what i mean.

Check out the right pic darker than the left one.

When you press start it shows the same pic but with that effect (darker).

The right one (lock screen) is full of color. If you press "Lock" the image on the right will have a normal color.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bond_guy_2002:
I heard this. Does anyone know why when one streams TV channels (e.g. from the local Starhub Mobile TV) using Dutty's R8, the resolution is very poor. This is in stark contrast to the high resolution streams that one gets from Miri's latest ROM. Are there specific settings in the registry that the service provider uses to identify the device and thereby stream higher resolution channels apart from the Custom User-Agent string in Opera?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dgen:
Does the Youtube app supports landscape in r8?

I've spend a lot of time configuring my today screen so.. :p

If so, flashing to r8 would be a 'go'..

Dutty...you did a mighty fine job with your 6.5 releases :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] insectskin:
indeed. I really like that effect and its great for some wallpapers.

In R8 this doesn´t happen.

Now with some wallpapers some icons are almost unreadable...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bond_guy_2002:
You are absolutely right for noticing that ... hope something comes out to get that benefit back into future releases ...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
From build 23008 and below the original theme works with a lighter background with readable texts,

From build 23009 aalso with build 21928 theme as to be edited so it can read readable text below the folders sub-icons , so the theme has to be darker, I cant see the real big deal though:confused:

What was the fix for the screen going black after playing a video in Manila?

I searched R6 but couldnt find it again, its not a big deal as I dont watch Vids much and can always go Via Album.

But if there was a fix I may as well use it

Other than that this ROM is perfect I have had no probs with anything
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fitaly:
Can anybody help me with Duttys R8 WM6.5, I can't find where the registry key for WM programs menu lock screen soft key is so I can map it to Manila home key.

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ozmoran:
Off Topic

I also use Dusk theme but my start menu Icons are not black what Cab does that?

Everything else works for me

Cheers

EDIT

found it
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
with 23009 build it only move to top, but stupid from MS, BUT IF U use the no manila version u can move and drag it anywhere folders and icons,

the next future roms will have that function also.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
thank you, its boring here also, as I cannot find much else to do with R8:), its great.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pawkar:
R 8 it's just great. Any idea Dutty about relase 21928 build? I use for few hours rom from pdaviet and seems to be great. But your roms rocks. :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ultimatepichu:
somehow this question is not solved. Some users like you and me are among the minors who have this problem. I don't know why though. Other way is to use the alternative cab provided by dutty. But that only revert to the version without social networking (if I'm not mistaken).
