****Sense UI 2.1/2.5 REAL MODE9 FIX****

Update 11/26/09: Version 3 Non Graphics Fix

1) V3 eliminates the need to re-center the icons by way of modifying the images. All icons have been re-centered through Mode9 fix. It took awhile to figure out the mapping system.

2) Re-positioned the date on the calendar tab icon.

3) Re-positioned notification bubble icon to fit better within the silder tab.

Please uninstall the V2 fix and the position fix cab (only if you had it installed). Download and install V3 Fix, and you are good to go.

Update 11/24/09:

1) V2 should complete SUI2.5. It took awhile to figure out the notification bubble in the People Details Tab.

2) I need feedback on V2 SUI 2.1 if there are any sliders left still un-transparent.

3) Added Stock Slider Position Fix cabs below. These will center the icons on the slider.

****I've spent countless hours on this project, putting aside other projects I've started for myself. I don't ask for much, but some appreciation on my work here would be greatly appreciated. There has been 600+ combined downloads for this fix and a very small percentage of feedback or thanks. I make it a point to show my appreciation elsewhere on this site for shared knowledge and upgrades. This project was very time consuming and aggrevating at times. But it helps to make the custom themes that much nicer. Please show your appreciation, not just for my time and efforts, but also for others who have also spent countless hours for the community! Thank you!****

Finally, figured the whole thing out! This slider fix is 100% transparent. No secondary icon, no calendar date, and yes...no notification bubble. There are 2 downloads below for the fix, SenseUI 2.1 and SenseUI 2.5. I have also provided each respective basic slider icon (it looks like the pics below.

Installation is simple. Download cab and place on SD Card. Run from File Explorer and Ok the soft reset. If you are running a theme that has a transparent slider, there is no need to re-install that theme. My fix is only system files. I have also provided a basic transparent slider for those still running stock theme.

Note: If your version of manila is cfc compressed, you will notice your slider icon being a white square. No proplem, just install my basic slider tab or uninstall and reinstall your custom theme. Thanks to tsalta for this info!

Enjoy!

Nothing better than a contribution in your first post. :)

Keep up the good work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Thanks. Spend most of my time here just reading.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Russ741:
Great job dude! There are a lot of folks in the ROM dev forum that will be very happy with YOU!

Russ
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] BWheezy:
Seems to work perfectly on Energy Rom Photon 11/18, thanks a lot!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Thanks and you're welcome!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Seifer1975:
got a small problem. I tried it on manila 2.5 1921 build and it worked perfectly. however the slider in the music tab after you clicked library, becomes opaque.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
I never use music tab but went to it to see what you were talking about. Could you please provide a little more info. Also, it appears I only have one sample music in there, do I need to add another to see the slider you are refering to? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Never mind, I'll have the fix file for you in about 1 minute
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Here you go. Uninstall the basic trans slider cab and install this one.

Edit: Moved to OP.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Smalltomato:
Worked for me, thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Seifer1975:
perfect!! now all sliders are transparent. cool! thank you so much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
No problem. You're welcome. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] muntos:
Can you find please a fix also for the other tabs (contacts, call history...)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Seifer1975:
These are all transparent already. Did you download and install the latest basic slider attached in the first post?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
I see what you are talking about. May not be the same on 2.1 but on 2.5 (which is what I am on now) call history tab, etc is not transparent. I'll look at it now. I believe why I didn't catch it before is because I was also pushing manila to the phone for my theme at the same time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
There will be a new release for the 2.5 version hopefully before this weekend. I have already found 1 file that handles the call detail slider. So thank you for pointing that out, as now I will ensure the next release is complete.

Will someone running 2.1 and my fix please check all tabs for slider and report back. I would appreciate it. Thank you and bear with me please.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Please see OP
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] MykeChester:
installed the slider...but icons are overlapping:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Did you follow the link to PPC geeks where my actuall thread is? That is where the 'fix' is. The slider you installed is just a basic, hollowed out slider.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] MykeChester:
ok...i see you update your post here with the fixes...thanks;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Yes, when I posted the updates a bit ago, I went ahead a put download links here too. Get the position fix cab too while you are at it. This is the first I've posted these anywhere.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Aussi:
Very nice man works like a charm even on the touch HD!! Thank you

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chizzwhizz:
i tried to instal this and it did nothing to my phone...doesnt look anything like the screenshots. i followed your instructions carefully also
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
What OS and what Version of Manila SenseUI?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
For those of you who downloaded the 2.1 V3 Fix, it doesn't work correctly. I didn't bother to flash over to 2.1 early this morning before I released it and that was a mistake. The same fix for 2.5 doesn't work for 2.1. You should not see any secondary icons on the slider while sliding across (most of you know this). I have fixed the notification bubble popping back up in 2.1 but centering the icons is going to take some more trial and error. I plan to work on this later tonight into tomorrow. Thanks to purian23 who brought it to my attention. 2.1 will be unavailable until I fix it. I have flashed back to 2.1 (yuck) to make sure the next release is correct. This is why feedback is necessary!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] leepriestenator:
As I understand it, this fix is supposed to sort out the duplication of the unread message indicator on the mail and SMS tabs. I just tried it on the latest 21877 build of NRGz rom and it didn't work.

ROM: NRG Phoenix 2

Build: 21877

Manila: 2.1

Release: 27.NOV

Thanks for you effort.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
It will now...V3 2.1 is back up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Diesel-30:
Will this work on T-mobile's 6.1 OS or would I need to flash my phone and install a cooked 6.5? I'm trying to avoid having to do that but this sense presentation looks amazing...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
One last change guys, sorry.

It appears my manila kitchen got corupt or something, couple last minute changes I made to 2.1 V3 prior to release were not saved. These change affected the layout of the notifications bubbles. It is fixed now. Redownload please. Thanks and once again I'm sorry!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Diesel-30:

is my question dumb? I'm kinda new at this...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
You'll have to flash. If you want to stay stock, there are plenty of trans sliders available. You just have to search for them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Diesel-30:
Thanks...I really like your stuff though...it just might push me over the edge...

Help Needed

Hello there,

I installed the cab but my tab are not transparent, they were opaque and you can't see the deleted icon. Is there anything I am doing wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Did you install the Basic Icon also?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Dibbson:
I installed both cabs, but when I installed the basic ontop of the first. It went from grey/silver/noicon just slider to clear like it's supposed to, but the entire slider, icons and all moved down a bit. Any ideas? Thanks ahead of time, and great job. Also, this is off topic, but how do you get rid of the black curtain that pops up when your sliding across the icons in Sense 2.1? I have removed the regular top and bottom curtain, just not sure about how to do that one. Thanks again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
I just want to be sure we are on the same page...Do you have a weather clock, ie. weather on the home screen under the clock?

The black screen that appears while sliding across the slider...I don't know the manila file off hand but if you open your manila with CFC-GUI it is called 'alpha hitbox'. It is a 2X2 sized image but make sure you get the right one, there is more than one. Most likely it will be with the 'Home/VGA' grouping.

Screenshots would also help diagnose your issue with my fix.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sopis:
Hello

Awesome work here man...

although it does not work properly on my device :(

I am running manila 2.1.19201317.0 with weather clock.

I also have HDwall so I can run weather animations with custom background.

What happened after installing both of your cabs is that the slider icon is now transparent but the slider itself is still gray and the icons are bigger then before and they are offset a bit...

Do you know what might the issue be?

Thank you.

OK..now I have uninstalled the slider and kept the slider icon...I can see the icon underneath the slider icon and the icon is bit offset so for now I have to remove the slider icon as well....hope you can help me...THANK YOU!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Ok, please...first of all re-read the OP. This fix does not change any graphical manila files with the exception that you install the basic transparent slider icon. The 'Fix' itself is only the Mode9 System files. The grey slider you are referring to is the curtain. That is a graphical file and I did not touch it.

Second, 2.1 was a PITA. Yes, the icons are somewhat bigger. It was a weird mapping system within mode9 that I could not lock down 100%. The only way for me to re-center the icons made them a little bigger.

Once you install this fix, you can change or add any theme to your liking.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Dibbson:
Thanks for the manila cfcgui info, much appreciated. Here are 2 images before and after the install. Hope this helps. Also the weather clock is present on the home screen, but i had not updated the weather (fresh flash images here) so you don't see in these pics, but it would be there had i updated the weather. Sense 2.1 on TP2

Before After
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
That is how it looks for everyone running stock 2.1 with my fix.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sopis:
Thank you so much for your answer!!

No worries, I read everything before I posted...but I don't understand everything so that graphical parti probably what I missed somehow..

So how can I get that as you say curtain transparent?

Should I look for something like 'Transparent Curtain Manila 2.1'?

Or maybe do you have some cab or link to that?

Thank you again!!! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Exactly what you search for. I don't have a cab or a link at this time. Lower curtain is what you want.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sopis:
Thanks!

You would not imagine how difficult is to find it though :D

I wil try more to find it...thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Diesel-30:
Does this work on T-mobile?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
As long as you have SenseUI
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Diesel-30:
Mmm I have a lot to learn still...I don't have sense I have my stock 6.1 on T-mobile but I was thinking of unlocking it and just adding this Sense to it...

Can that be done or do I need to be rocking a 6.5 to make it work?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Yes, you need 6.5 to have/use SenseUI. If you are after just the transparent slider, there are plenty for your OS already been out since phone released.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sopis:
Please someone tell why the heck it is so difficult to customize these things :D :D :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Hey chuckz07, great stuff and its definitely appreciated. But, I have one problem I was hoping you could help with. Im using a rom that I believe may have your fix cooked in with the transparent slider. The problem I have, is when I try to install a cab to get the original slider icon back, the icons on the slider are still blank. I tried installing the slider icon blank you posted and then reinstalled the stock slider icon cab. Still blank though. I was wondering if you could help out with figuring out why? Thanks much in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Which ROM?

Edit: Never mind, I miss understood what you asked at first. The reason is, is because the mode9 fix does not change any graphics. The graphic is actually still there but the programming hides it. Let me know what cab you are referring to and I'll look at it. Sounds like you want a cab to install the original files so the graphics come back, correct?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] glcK23:
Tried this with basic WM 6.5 basic, doesn't work, tried all versions and none worked.

Waste of time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] nuron:
This worked for me on NrG's roms and it's definitely appreciated. glcK23, how hard was it really to install and uninstall this? You gave it a try and it didn't work--now you know and you can move on to different roms or try other fixes. Different chefs incorporate different code into their work so there's no one-cab-fix-all solution because there's no many variables.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] glcK23:
I am using standard WWE WM6.5, I would have thought it would work on basic WM6.5 rom moreso than edited WM6.5 ROMS.

Do not get me wrong, I am in no way trying to be disrespectful, I fully appreciate the hard work it takes to make these .cab modifications, but it did not work for me on WWE 6.5 basic rom:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
The rom is NRGZ's Leo 28088 rom. And you're spot on, I'm just trying to get a cab that lets the original graphics be shown again. Ive attached the cab I'm trying to use as well. Thanks much as well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Your first post seemed very disrespectful! Check the version of your manila, if it is not 2.1 or 2.5, it will not work.

I figured that was the the rom you were using. He wasn't even kind enough to mention where he got the fix from in his changelog. I will look at his cab, but regardless you will have a fix soon. Just give me a day or so to get the files together. Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Thank you for this reply.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Has it been about a day yet?

Try this cab and let me know. Uninstall the NRG fix cab first.

NOTE: Only install this cab if my fix has been cooked into your custom ROM and you want the stock slider back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] glcK23:
This is my WM6.5 Info: Windows mobile 6.5, build 21854.5.0.80, sense 2.1 ROM. I tried both 2.1 and 2.5 versions of your transparent slider but none worked... 2.1 gave me the stock slider + a white box, so I installed your fix for that and it did nothing . Here is a pic of my phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Install the 2.1 fix then install the basic slider cab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] glcK23:
Didn't work, again...Picture below after installing 2.1 FIX then rebooting, then install Basic slider 2.1....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Dude, what's the issue? You are looking at the fix. Slide your finger across the slider, do you see secondary icons popping up as you get over the next tab...no. Behind the slider is called the curtain, lower curtain to be exact.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Well, hopefully he will add due credit to his first post man, as it's really great work. It's much appreciated from my end, thats for sure. And the cab worked perfectly. Thanks much. But, one question, does the cab cause the overlays to come back? I mean, you cant tell much with the stock slider,unless you go really slowly. So, can I actually install the mode 9 fix now and I wont get the overlays?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Ok, you sort of lost me there momentarily. You don't want the overlays but you also don't want the transparent slider correct? If that is the case, then yes you can install the fix. But I can also redo the cab for exactly what you want. It will be later tonight but let me know exactly what it is you are after.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
LOL!! That's exactly it. No overlays, and no transparent slider. As well, does it matter if the slider files are CFC compressed? In terms of keeping the same speed when sliding and such. Ive noticed that manila 2.5 is WAY faster when it is CFC compressed. Thanks much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Compression does matter when it comes to speed. NRG did compress his manila, but that is ok because my fix came from compressed files. I will redo the cab so hang in for a few and I will put it up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Kwill, Try this...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Thanks much and I tried it, but it made the slider back blank. I meant to ask also. Do I need to give you my manila files so I can still keep the few customizations he made to the icons?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Originally you said "No overlays and no transparent slider". Now I'm really confused on what it is you are after. Are you after a look like this...Only slider tabs and nothing else? In other words, the slider images are there but there is nothing else?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Man, I really am bad at explaining things apparently:D But, your fix made it to where the icons have no overlay, making the transparent slider perfect when sliding (basically, not seeing two icons, one laid on top of the other). When I go back to stock (using the cab you provided), then the overlay appears to come back (meaning you see the icons overlapping each other when you slide). I only wanted to know if the same fix can be applied to just the stock icons cab you provided me? So that you see no overlay. Its really not a big deal as when its stock, the slider is solid colored, so you cant notice the overlay really. The last cab you provide just made the icon slider blank again. I do like the last suggestion of no slider icon showing at all. That would be pretty cool:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Kwill, no slider tab and no overlays...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Looks good Chuckz!! The only thing weird, is that for some reason the home icon isnt moved up properly as seen in the screenshot
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Don't go too much by the placement on the screenshots. That was the 1st 'graphical fix' in which I manipulated the icon images themselves. I just never put up new screenshots afte V3 fix.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Actually, thats how it looks on my device as that screenshot is of my phone. For some reason, the home icon is moved lower than the rest. Not a big deal, it just looks a little weird:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Oh, simple answer for that I didn't think of yesterday. Those images in OP were taken from 2.5 not 2.1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Ah, got you. Thanks. I have one other small request from you. Do you think its possible to make the slider from this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5114221&postcount=8, but for manila 2.5?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
I've looked at the files. Yes I can, but no I will not without permission from the person who created them. You get him to PM me permission, I'll do it. Or, maybe he has already started on it. Either way, discuss with him first please. I don't use anyone's work without their permission first.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Completely understandable and I should have done that first. I have PM'ed him and ask that he PM you. Truly noble thought process you have and it's much appreciated:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
No problem man, and I appreciate your understanding in this. I'll await his PM.

Works brilliant with KWBR Topix 3.2.2 Blackstone (Touch HD)

FIRST OF ALL :

I would like to thank the creator of this cab.

AND :

This work works brilliantly with Kwbr TOPIX 3.2.2 over at Blackstone ROM Thread
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] chuckz07:
Thank you, you're welcome and glad to hear it works good for you!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kwill:
Hey chuckz07, remember the slider I asked if you could do? Well, I think (as has been indicated in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=596903) that the slider is not what I thought it was. I was referred to the Dusk thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4267808#post4267808 to get the slider. But, once there it appears that the slider is actually transparent with a black tint to it. I was looking for one that is solid black, but glossy. With that said, since you've looked at the slider files, is it actually a transparent slider with a black tint to it? Or is it actually solid, glossy black? If it is solid in color, then of course we should wait to hear from ancola66. But, if its not solid black, do you think you would mind go ahead and making a solid, glossy black one? Thanks in advance.
