it seems to be faster, switch from portrait to landscape is faster, but the animation is not smooth, i try on Photo module only
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cnzqy1:
It works for me fine, and the animation do work faster. Great work!

By the way, can you make a stopping clock from flipping 1 hour and 2 minute back fix? The fix I use for now is a little buggy. It should be a LUA file in Home tab. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
I just tried these... Wow. Very nice... They work perfectly. I'm looking forward to the other tabs. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
I'm not sure what you may be using for the clock flip. The version I'm using seems to work well. I've not had any issues with it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cnzqy1:
Will try, thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BigDedx3:

Don't know whether it's a operator customized one or not.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
Thanks.. I read about new Manila (2.5_19214010_0) version before :).. Thanks for the link

But do you know if it was operator custom? (TMOUS)

EDIT:

oh man, maybe we should wait for unbranded versions :(

Ok, HTCUtil 3.14 CAB from my SUN-Y Diamond Rom is attached.

Btw, something ot, but maybe interresting: working landscape camera with Sensor SDK V4 <- working rotation in Manila AND taking landscape photos!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Is your new rom allready out ? Just wondering ... :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nmvmorgado:
Here stays two cents,

I'm using GFXG Rom based on yozgat ROM and the installation and initial tests went very well. But, for safety reasons I always copy the "original" files that are going to be replaced on my phone, which makes a bit long the process. Therefore I would like to know if there's a script that creates a backup and then copies the files (using a manually configured file, of course).

Thank you all, especially the team behind HTC Sense 2.5 Port!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zeppelin95:
Man, it's GREAT!! These tabs are flying after moving your files to /Windows

Keep on doing this! especially try to make something like that for the home tab or weather animation. THANK YOU :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jmckeejr:
Sure. Its called a cab :p I would just use WinCE cab manager or even SKTools has a cab program named CabInteger which lets you make cabs on your device(very cool). Otherwise, as long as the original files are cooked into the ROM you can simply delete the new files and the originals will take their place.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gho57:
i have a problem with 12 quicklinks, after install on my diamond slider icon appears over the screen, this is an example:

:confused:

any suggestion?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kisja:
Which VGA port are you using?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nmvmorgado:
How embarrassed :o!!! Of course, that way you can automatically reverse the process. How stupid was my question??!! Thanks jmckeejr
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lazyboy0172:
you must read minds! i just came to the forum to search for a mod to get rid of the animation when going to the email tab and i find this posted today. I installed the mod for all the tabs even though i was mostly interested in the mail tab and i can say it works as advertised, thank you!

in what branch of register?

If in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila does not work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Whoa, I love you for that !!!!Thank you so much, especially the new speed of the photo app is impressive and even the landscape music tab is usable.

But: what have you done with the calendar? Cannot see any differences.

Some small glitches (?): in the landscape music tab by jumping to the next album (distance small between both albums):

the cover flow is now a bit odd (hope you can get what I mean):

In the original animation, it was a smoothly (more or less, but limited) flap out of cover1 and cover2, finishing with cover2 lie on top of the cover1.

Now you have a full and sudden flap out of both covers, finishing with a smooth overlap of cover2 above cover1.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Hm - where to put the registry entry?

However: Great idea, but what is with the work done here (Post 10 here in this thread)?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4956989&postcount=10

I have mad a small mock up, showing your version with an shortcut bar on top.

I think it would be a good idea to put by default important WM/HTC links (in contrast to my screenshot): Home, Settings, Calendar, etc. (Yes, the pre-configured ones in the old HTC-program tap). Sometimes, when the Diamond hangs, I was happy to have them...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danilovac:
There is also another way to have a start menu in list format, just changing the shape of the honeycomb with the files attached, just move them to the \windows

I do not know who made this files, sorry..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sentenza:
This is so Great, i was wondering about that, and you did it !!

Many Thanks !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
OH MAN... I AM SORRY... THAT WAS LATE NIGHT RELEASE :o .. I am forget about Reg key.. But it was fixed now :), you can redownload or edit the app.reg with this:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
; Enable/Disable
"Programs.EnableStartMenuReplacement"=dword:00000001

-----------------------------------------------------------​

Yes, it act just like Manila 2.1 + EnlargeStartMenu.

I am sorry about it.. already fixed now :o

In Calendar, I decrease transition frame rate... when you scroll to next month/years or change the view, but yes I don't feel that smooth, the best FastManila I think was Photo tabs, and about Music tab, I will find the best values for this animations/transitions, it was to show you that it was possible to make it faster, but need some Intense works & tests.

again.. I am sorry :D.

Ok, I think your idea was good enough to try :), and add right softkey to jump to Settings tabs, or other actions...

I think i won't change current manila style to make it more consistent in style/themes so it look more "pro :D", just feel like HTC who design it..

n.p. Because I playing with WM6.1 for now, and old start menu was bugging me :P so I create this...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Not working here :(

I am on a German Rom - do I have to enter a different string?

BTW: is it possible to put the right softkey on WM Settings?

UPDATE: OK sorry - and thanks - I was too slow on reading ;)

Man - I cannot wait until the optimized values are found for all tabs if they work as nearly perfect as the picture tab does.

You definitely gives the best present for this Christmas :D

UPDATE 2: might it be, that I have to edit this Manila Full xml file? Just wondering, as you included an app.dat?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dom1n8tr1x:
Great work! I cooked the files into my ROM and are very pleased with the results.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sentenza:
So do I, this mod is nearly perfect, the photo tab is sensibly faster than the older one.

And in my opinion, there is no problem of graphical quality, it is totally acceptable ;)

Nice Work ;)

Read The Manual Here: [ 1st Page - 5th post ] on [ Manila 2.5 VGA Updating Info ] section -> [ Update package which contain XML File(s) ]

ok I copy it:

Update package which contain XML File(s)

Make sure you delete \Windows\ManilaFull.xml in your device before you restarting the manila

Copy XML files into both \Windows and \Windows\ManilaXml
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Yes - I read it

I deleted ManilaFull.xml and copied AllPrograms_Pages.xml to the /windows directory and the /windows/ManilaXml

Then: Softreset - but pressing the start button still bring up the old menu =(

UPDATE: Hm - excuting MailaStartMenu.exe does not work either. I select it in the /windows directory, but nothing happens (size is 7.00kb) ... will redownload and report

UPDATE: it is still the same - btw: the app.reg is also still missing the address line - were't you re-uploading it?

Where is my mistake? Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
Oh.. Don't forget to disable EnlargeStartMenu if your ROM included EnlargeStartMenu

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\EnlargeMenu]

Do you have an idea ? Thx ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rumball:
I was having the exact same problem on my Diamond (couldn't for the life of me get the AllPrograms tab working). I finally gave up and set Programs.EnableStartMenuReplacement to "0" (thinking this would disable everything) and guess what...it started working! ?!? :confused:

So as odd as this may seem...try setting HKCU/Software/HTC/Manila/Programs.EnableStartMenuReplacement = 0 ... this did the trick for me for some reason.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sentenza:
Thank you ;)

But no miracle for me, it doesn't work...

I don't understand, i'll try to redo it fully in my kitchen, and will see.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] basthet:
Lucky you, it is still not working for me =(

Well - but good to know, s.o. is working on that feature =)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] celoni:
what i ve to do for integrade this in a cooked rom???

sorry for english
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
Sorry for anyone who use the mods and cannot run it, the problem previously was from .exe file that will run if Programs.EnableStartMenuReplacement was "0", and terminated if it "1". But don't worry, I fix it, and give you more now :)

For WM6.1 users who don't like an old Start Menu, or maybe WM6.5 who prefer another Start Menu for your Program Launcher, can use this mods.

For French and maybe other, you should modify the app.dat like this :

Originally it was :

the manila lock is only work on 2188X?

cause if i cook with the 280XX, the top & bottom not autohide :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kisja:
Yes, I think the problem is, that the manila windows is repositioned by an external exe to fit the new layout. So fullscreen Manila can't work. Or are the landscape tabs pics and music fullscreen? So it's not a problem of the locker. The exe resposible for the repositioning of manila does not support fullscreen.

Sadly It won't work on current 1921 core :(. I try it, and when it loaded the manila stuck, and OS didn't even responded. so reflash it... may be we need to wait new unbranded version, so we can fully porting it again.

Did you successed to make it works on your device?? can you send me your packges/what packages did you included to your kitchen??

That looks like a Menu Enhancement issue. Have you changed the reg entry that determines how many menu items are displayed?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMenus]
"PortraitMaxItemCount"=dword:00000009

9 is too many for our display. If you're using Leo Menu Enhancement, changing it to 7 is okay. Using a Rhodium or Topaz version, 6 is a little better. You can make it whatever you want, really.

Do you add the following into initflashfiles.dat ?

Directory("\"):-Directory("Windows")

Directory("\Windows"):-Directory("ManilaXml")

Directory("\Windows\ManilaXml"):-File("DocExplorer_pages.xml","\Windows\DocExplorer _pages.xml")

Also you need to have the "StartIconLoader_2_5_19214010_0" in order to make SENSE working right.

The only one issue I have now is it seems the document tab only can support English, do you have any idea how to change the Languague in manlia format that I can support other language (I need Traditional Chinese 0404) ? Otherwise, it will only show IDS_XXXX for teh softkey. (My phone is TOPAZ, but it seems the LEO 2.01 is working one)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silentP:
Ok guys, need your help yet again... see the attached pic. I cannot fing the graphic associated with this problem. I've tried menu enhancement, but it seems not to do any good. Am I way off base??? Thanks guys.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
Yes the ManilaXml was the first thing I do. also for IDS_XXXX I take the 6f286a05_manila from TMOUS ManilaCore. Will try with new StartIconLoader_2_5_19214010_0. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jmckeejr:
you should use htc volume control. look like you didn't include it. otherwise you can't change those graphics without using external application.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silentP:
I thought HTC Vol control didn't work correctly? I'll try it again. Any particular version you recommend J? By the way, say I did want want to use my external progs to edit, which file would it be in?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jmckeejr:
Yes, Volume control doesnt work with newer builds, but does work very well on COM2(looks like screenshot is from COM2). Never seen any skinning done on the default MS volume control except by using Wisbar Advance. It is drawn by the system, so to change color you could use sktools to change color of window background but it would also change other areas. The Radio buttons are in shellres.dll I think, but again not sure what can be done with them.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silentP:
Yeah, it's COM2, everything seems to work well with it. Thanks for the help. I'm trying VolumeControl 2.1.19163532.0
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chihliouma:
Thanks for the help, you are genius, it works, but except the only one "IDS_ALLDOCUMENTS" locatesin the left-under side when scroll to Document tab. I do translate that into 6f286a05_manila, but why it doesn't show the correct one ? For the rest is all correct.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
Hehehe... don't know if it can works :D, I only know that if there is new tabs there will be new strings in Manila_Core.

I don't even manage it to work yet (even with new StartIconLoader),... maybe because I am use WM6.1 now.. will try it with WM6.5 at home :)

hmm... Which Manila Core did you used? TMOUS version? I try it in current ported 1921... maybe the Documents tab only worked for new Manila Core version (It mean, we should wait new unbranded Manila Core because we need to reporting anything again :))...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chihliouma:
Yes, I am using the TMOUS version, and also most of the Packages are from LEO 2.01. I guess the document tab is not matual yet, therefore, some portion is not complete or final. But strange thing is how come all the IDS are succesfully translated but only that one is not ???? I may need to try more. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
Excellent... Works like a charm as long as I turn off the "Lower Backlight" option. I'm not using Lumos. With "Lower Backlight" option on the brightness stays at minimum. I leave that option off myself.. so its perfect for me :).

Thanks! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
On a related topic... I'm using a Transparent version of the calendar that you guys might find of interest. With the default background or black, you cannot really tell any difference, but if you use the BG4ALL mod then the calender background is transparent. This is a CFC version...

I located the file for you. The "appt. corners" are located in the "5fad1e24_manila" file. Attached is a pic of the one I modified Green. Thanks for asking about it. I wouldn't have thought about it prior, but I like it better too. One a is "CFC version" and the other is "standard non-CFC version".
