Does anyone know how to edit the 47dd6acd_manila file so that default WM threaded messaging appears instead of HTC messaging when you click on a message in the SMS tab?

I found a modified file for Diamond, but the resolution is obviously different.

What tools would I need to do this?

Any advice, or even better (the modified manila file) would be greatly appreciated.:p

Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rotastrain:
could u attach the diamond file u found?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
Thanks Rota! I've attached the file.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
Trying to edit the file. Hmmm... not working for some reason.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rotastrain:

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
Thanks, bro!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] joecruz:
hey any updates on this? I'd like to have the default threaded messaging appear as well in TF3D when u click on a message...it's much faster and reliable...that way i wont have to click on "all messages" anymore....hate the manila one
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] joecruz:
found this while doing some searching...credit goes to krzysiec for this...take note it only works for manila 2.1 (works also with the new 2.1.19.19/htc sense)...it's awesome!!! it takes you right to the default WM messaging when u click on a message instead of the manila one...no more disorganized messages!! it's also much faster
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
Thanks for this. Works great. You are the man!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
Nope, never seen that problem with both versions of the firmware.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tomn8r:
Surely you would have noticed that if you go through and open up around 15 or so applications that the phone becomes a little more laggy?

Perhaps its just what I've been doing that makes this appear. No harm in killing excess apps though!

I would have thought that even on a theory level it would have to happen- as ram becomes less available the phone would slow down.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
Nope... TBH why would I want 15 apps running ?

Android is supposed to manage the memory by halting or killing background apps if foreground apps need memory.

I've never noticed a slow down like suggested, and I guess I open around 15 apps throughout the whole day, some multiple times like HTC Mail, Twidroid etc.

I find it best to let the OS just manage itself. :D

Anyway... don't want to lead this thread off topic. Some useful infos above and its good to have these in one thread rather than spread around.

cheers :)

Does anyone have mobile internet and mms settings for T-mobile uk?

I've flashed new rom yesterday and forget to note them... :/

Many thanks in advance...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
Call T-Mobile and tell them you managed to delete them somehow. Thay may also be on their support pages.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] johnwoo.nl:
Perhaps you would like to add this information to above paragraph:

If you don't sync your contacts to a google account, or you did not setup a google account at all, you can use HTC Sync to sync your contacts to Outlook/Windows Address Book/Windows Contacts before resetting the phone. Afterwards, simply sync them back. This could save you a lot of time entering your contacts again ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
Yes, that's true - if you systematically go opening up applications you will see this effect. It is artificially stressing the system though, because you won't be using all 15 applications simultaneously. If you use the phone "normally", you won't see this because Android will automatically close down applications as required if system resources are getting low and the application is not performing any useful work (see http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html ).

The important part is here:

Essentially, you can leave Android to manage itself, and most of the time it does a pretty good job of it. Sure, there will be situations where a manual kill might help, but I've yet to encounter one myself.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tomn8r:

Have been checking this thread in the hope that the tutorial continues.

Please :)

I have lots of questions that might be solved by the next part of the tutorial.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Hey,

Sorry for not updating sooner. I am still in school and this past week I had intense Marching Band rehearsals to lead up to our competition on sunday. Its all over now, so I have distinctly more time get back to my projects. Expect an update soon.

Cyclonezehpyrxz7
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
I did a minor update. I am sort of out of ideas. I did the unthinkable and left this alone for too long and lost my train of thought. So now I call upon you, the eager readers! What is it that I need still incorporate?

Don't mention the following because i already plan on implementing them:

-Interactions with the Registry (a bit more in depth with examples).

-Simple guide to making a basic panel (that doesn't do much)

-Go over more specifics about different TAG types.

Thats it...my mind is dry (oddly and unfortunately enough). So please, anything you would like to know more indepth (or at all) just post it here and I will fill as many requests as possible!
[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
CPR - Registry interaction

Most of my 100000000's questions are Registry related so for that part I'll wait until your Tut covers it.

In the meantime, do you know what this does?

<ControlSequence ID="Action Sequence" FramesPerSecond="30" Loop="False">
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
The ControlSequence tag is, in our case, useless. As Drkfngthdrgnlrd explained it to me a while ago, that controls animations that go on on-screen. It works for making buttons, etc. but since our phone's not a touch-screen, buttons really cannot exist. I believe that it is in there because this is a "stock" CPR, and realize that there is no OFFICIAL 6.5 for our smartphone, what the master chefs here have done is take megapacks (i believe that is what they are called) from official 6.5 ROM's for other phones and sort of splice them together to emulate a 6.5 environment.
[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
Thank you :)
[HTC Excalibur] joeskull:
Why do I think you will come up with some rom made by you? :)

Thanks for the tutorial!

[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
ControlSequence ID="Action Sequence"

According to what you explained, I deleted

<ControlSequence ID="Action Sequence" FramesPerSecond="30" Loop="False">

<Image ID="Image" Left="0" Top="0" Width="320" Height="67" ScalingAlgorithm = "TriLinear" Opacity="1.0"/>

</ControlSequence>

from the CPR and absolutely nothing changed in the behaviour of the home screen.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Which is expected. Like I said, it is a "stock" CPR...that is designed for button's, etc. Much like the cmhome.dll (which contains the atual code for the CPR), it is all pretty stock and based for touchscreens because M$ knows that if they dare change anything, they could mess it all up (haha *sigh*).
[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
Now that you mention cmhome... could you please see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=573863

Plspls
[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
"Simple" example

As an example of registry interaction, would it be possible for you to explain how to get the name of the owner directly from registry to the CPR? Lets say, anywhere in ClockExpanded. Is that possible?
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Well that is actually a more complicated thing (compared to other edits).

I'll write up the Registry interactions tutorial now ...i should probably stop procrastinating haha.
[HTC Excalibur] lajoiema:
When adding text and image ids to a page, do you know if their is a maximum on the amount of ids I can add per page. I'm trying to edit a cpr file and when I add a text id, my text shows but another one disappears. I can add text and images to the next pages and can create new pages with no problems. I'm editing the cheroclock panel and the first page has many elements because of the clock images.

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] YesHoney:
Did you check that the new images and text you add are not going on top of the missing ones?
[HTC Excalibur] lajoiema:
thanks for the response ...

Yes I did, by trying different areas of the panel.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
I haven't looked much at the CHeroClock panel, being as it is not a standard panel for our phones. I am not entirely sure if that works off of the basis of direct registry interactions or if it is managed by an application that talks to the registry... There is quite a difference.

My thoughts are:

1)Make sure no two ids are the same and follow that convention i mentioned about "text1" "text2" or "image2" "image3", it makes it much easier.

2)Try to dig into the panel by going to the registry and looking at the SK2URL and click events, see where they point. If they point to a MSCR (or an exe named after an MSCR) then it is most likely functioning like I mentioned in my tutorial, if it points to a EXE that is not named like a MSCR, chances are that it is a hard-coded program and toggling with that panel can become tricky.

Analyze these things and get back tome, if you relly cant figure any of it out, talk to the creator of the CHeroClock panel, he/she will probably be glad to lend a hand.

Hi guys.. I have a samsung i600 (already pre-installed with WM 6 Standart)

I have been using this stuff for a year..

At the beginning, everything ran smooth.. But during the last 2 months, when I tried the windows-mobile update, it said that it can't connect to the update server.. and it's always does! at the beginning, it wasn't like that.. the update was always successful to connect, eventhough there was always no new update..

Is that something wrong with my phone's connection, or is microsoft closed the update server?

And one more simple problem, my original Lavender background turned into only a grey landscape background.. as I've tried to restore back the phone to factory settings, it still remain like that.. I guess something wrong with the master files.. How can I recover that? do I need to re-flush the WM6?

Thx guys.. I really need your help, the WM expert.. Sorry if I ask help for such a ridiculous matter.. I'm an amateur.. ^_^
[General Topics] GameKyuubi:
Two problems:

1) Files with Unicode in the filename don't work well.

2) ReplayGain tag not supported.

Is there a media player other than WMP for Windows Mobile that supports these features, or an add-on to TCPMP that enables them?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] mmbika:
I just bought T-Mobile Ameo WM 5.0 over the ebay which was mentioned unlocked. I am using it with vodafone SIM. I am confused by reading about upgrades that it has to be unlopcked before it ca be upgraded. Does this SIM unlock is the 'unlock' required to upgrde or is it something different?

(1) How do I know that it is really unlocked, if it is different to SIM unlocking? As it is working with other than T-Mobile SIM proves it is unlocked? As different to other WM devices I have used, this is more like a PC booting up.

(2) What are the prime benefits of upgrading to WM6.0?

(3) I want to go for official upgrade (i.e. WM 6.0) than coocked ROMs as for now. Or should I jump to the latest (but coocked Wm 6.1 or WM 6.5) ROM? Do I loose any functionality in installing coocked ROM?

(4) And last, does upgrading to offical ROM (downloaded from links on the forum) will again Unlock it to T-Mobile? This may seem trivial, but I have a bit concern that as it is going to be offical upgrade, can it again lock to T-Mobile? If it does, than I will not be in a position to use it as phone unless I unlock again! This seems funny on my part, but better prevent than cure.

Thanks in advance
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] mmbika:
NO ONE AS YET? I gussed I would have received instant answers to very basic questions becaise I had just bought Ameo!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] avengerpenguin:
Its been a while since I did mine but will try and advise on what I can remember

1.SIM unlocking is for using other networks operators and sometimes confused with CID unlocking, I think. If your using a vodaphone sim then it is def sim unlocked but in order to get it to a safe point for upgrading ideally you need to install hardspl and cid unlock I think. There are many guides on here but you will have to search and read I'm afraid as most of us did this a while ago.

2/3.Each of the windows builds 6.0, 6.1 and 6.5 bring different things and increased functionality, 6.0 and 6.1 are worthwhile upgrades as they are both official releases, you may struggle to find a stock 6.1 for the ameo though. Again its been a long time since I used 6.1 on any of my devices, 6.5 is ok as long as you realise that its still in MS beta so you may find stuff that doesnt work or isnt perfect but it is the most up to date. Cooked roms gain or loose functionality dependant on the cook who made it and what they decided to include or remove.

4. I have never installed the stock t-mobile rom so cant tell you if it will re-lock the device but I wouldnt think so.

***Please for your own sake, read as much as you can in these forums to ensure you know what your going to do, also if you do decide to go for cooked roms make sure you use a rom suitable for your SPL****

Hope this helps
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] mmbika:
That's what I was suspecting, that SIM unlocking wasn't the unlocking required to upgrade it. Thanks for reconfirming this.

Now as there is offical WM 6.0 ROM for Ameo linked here, does that mean they (T-Mobile) have also referred their own upgrading procedure somewhere? For my Xperia X1, SE Updte utility takes care of official upgrade task, so something similar had existed sometime as there exists official T-Mobile 6.0 ROM, there must their official procedure too. I will definitely try to find it, but as yet someone had gone through it, please give some hints.

And as yet until I get a definite answer that upgrading it to offical WM 6.0 T-Mobile ROM will not lock (I mean SIM Lock) to T-Mobile again, I will prefer to defer although I am still looking to get enhanced performance, it has been with me for just a few day and I don't want to mess it up as I have slowly began to love it! Even it is like my desktop speakerphone at home / office and I have began to talk more conveniently and confortable on the desk or home. Yes, I am still not used to use it as normal small cell phone, but I hope I will gt used to it, although I find to see anything on screen during sulit days or in bright daylight.

Hi. welcome to the forum. I was new here six months ago. there is a lot of information here and you MUST take time to read and understand. not many will answer your basic questions. they is not being nasty, it is just the way it is. you must teach yourself. you will not find much (if any) information about official roms.

if you decide to try a cooked rom, Lakeman has produced a great tutorial which is stickied in this forum. It is the one I followed. here is the link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=429013

study this carefully, google anything you dont understand, dont do anything until you are sure you know what you are doing.

just to repeat what avengerpenguin said

MAKE SURE YOU USE A ROM TO SUIT YOUR SPL

good luck:)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] lennie:
to be able to flash cooked ROMs to your phone you need to hardSPL your device. HardSPl will OS unlock your device. to be able to use the best WM6.5 rom for your device you need to upgrade to SPL 3.5.

first thing you need to do:

find out what spl your device is currently using: hold down camera button (all the way down) + press the reset hole/button, keep holding down on the camera button but release the reset hole/button (keep holding on camera button until a multi colored screen comes up (then release camera button) look where it says (spl) tell us what is there.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] mmbika:
It was 1.10 something and I upgraded to T-Mobile official WM6 ROM today without any issues and overall device is more fast and chunkier. Now it is 2.35 something.

I have however noticed two issues,

(1) HSDPA switch is enabled yet 'H' icon has gone so probably it is not connecting to HSDPA mode, I guess. I want the 'H' back.

(2) Windows Live is gone.

(3) Programs icons are noit alfabatically sorted but somehow lossely scattered.

I googled that Ameo doesn't require CID unlocked and it upgrades directly and it did via T-Mobile application which runs via USB cable.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] avengerpenguin:
HSDPA may be down to the age of the rom, if tmobile didnt have their HSDPA running when the rom was built may not be included in the icons etc

Windows live should be available through cab if you search or use a 3rd party app like palringo
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] responderman:
Hi and welcome to the forum,

Now I have been using the Ameo for 2 years now, and must have flashed about every rom there is for it. So the other day I thought about going back to a stock WM6.0 T-mobile rom and try it for a few days to see how different it was to a cooked rom. Well it lasted 2 hours and I put it back to Michy's 5.1 rom. Now I'm not saying that Michy's roms are the mutts nutts of roms, that is down to personal choice, but it just proved to me why we use cooked roms. Read the WIKI, and I very much doubt you will have a fault that's not covered in that page.Also read THIS superb thread, it tells you all you need to know BE very careful when choosing a rom that you check the SPL on it, as flashing an SPL 3.5 rom onto an Ameo with another SPL will cause all sorts of problems. Like I say, Read the WIKI FIRST. take your time, and do nothing till you are sure!

Somehow I found internet access speeds even better although it doesn't display 'H' for HSDPA, because noe HD youtube videos plays smoothly with less buffering, i.e. seems good enough. Battery life has been extended.

USB host is still not good, can't retain it's status, can't load HDD or DVD or CD drives (via powered hub, offcourse)

I was just ponderind, does it drain more battery while connected to keyboard as keyboard definitely will be needing some current to drive and power to run it, that means even when it is plugged in to charger or USB to a PC, what difference does i make w.r.t time it takes to fully charge and retain there where keyboard is connected and when not?

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] avengerpenguin:
I dont think there was an offical t mobile 6.1 release, and any 6.1 stock build will be very old now as I dont think there has been any oem development for this device for a long time.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] responderman:
No there wasn't a 6.1 upgrade for our device, I think they thought it such a small change that it wasn't worth it. and not long after they brought out the 16gb device.

Hello

I've been looking for an SMS application that will allow me to hide specific SMSes (SMSes from certain people :p ) Someone advised me to ask here. I already got a suggestion to try EasyHelper SMS Security and it would work fine if it wasnt meant for WM 6, while I have Firestorm 3.8 which is WM 6.5...this version of WM makes the whole interface unreadable.

Does anyone have any idea where I could get such an application that would also work with 6.5?

I'll appreciate
