Kimi, before you go maybe you can take a look at this please and offer any kind of help/insight to a fix would be greatly appreciated! Im using NRG's latest rom on build 23518 running sense 2.1.19202517.0. Only thing installed for sense is below and all have worked fine with other roms not making this problem. This problem has happened though from a fresh flash of the rom with nothing installed yet! So obviously this is a rom flaw but hopefully looking for a fix here since i really dont want to flash another rom. Would greatly appreciate it!

Running att tilt2 on wvga screen. AS you can see in the portrait pics, the top is missing a bit. On the first 2 wallpaper pics, this is the default pic in the rom after flash so its sized a bit better but still a small blank black bar across the top, can really see it better in portrait.

Now the other 2 pics are a custom wallpaper that is sized exactly the same as the stock default wallpaper but appear even worse! Any ideas???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Also, to make matters worse, cooked in is a mod or flaw so that the wallpaper is set to ALL tabs! Which sucks because the custom pic it's very hard to read texts/calender with such a light colored background. Before i would have the stock black background for all tabs and only custom wallpaper on home screen, any way to still do that with this?

Any way to change the default wallpaper for sense so when i press default for wallpaper it goes to what i want it to? Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
the problem is the bg4all mod that was used is for a vga screen. that's why you're getting all of those gaps. you'll have to find one for a wvga screen to fix it. the file you want is mainly 7adfaca3_manila. as for the default wallpaper, look at these registry entries:

disable manila, remove both entries, and reenable manila.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Do you have that specific manila file or anyone else not using the bg4all mod ur talking about? That way i can see if it helps, thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Reg Edit?

To add to this looking further i found this? See the registry pic below, i changed the one that is highlighted for wallpaper tweak, it was set to "1" by default. I then changed it to "0", soft reset, now it seems to have turned off bg4all tabs! Problem is now, look at the first 2 pics. Seems now it has moved my portrait pic higher and the black bar gap lower, but still the same in landscape.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
oh wow, that made it much clearer. that rom is using my bgmod :D

i made a few adjustments to my mod and attached it here. let me know if it works correctly. btw, changing that value to 0 will return the background to normal behavior (custom wallpaper on home tab, default everywhere else).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Raptordin:
Kimi, I Highly appreciate your work, I would love to ask if you can remake your super excellent kitchen to one which is ready for Blackstone WVGA as I am facing problems in doing so myself and for the hell of me can't find out why. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Thank you so much! This solved my problem 100%! Thats exactly what i wanted, my custom wallpaper on home screen only and default on all tabs. I installed your cab, soft reset, went into registry, changed the value to tweak wallpaper from "1" to "0" and now its complete and the home screen image i choose is resized perfectly in portrait and landscape as it should! Thank you so much, this has been bugging me for awhile now with this rom!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TMartin:
So it wasn't my WVGA version of your WeatherMod I hope??? Me and a few other people have been running it on our TP2's without issue. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SDreamer:
I'm having some issues, I think I mentioned this a while ago, but did not get a response. The flip clock on my rom keeps freezing. WinMo's time is still active, and shows current time, but the flip clock on the home tab is stuck, and I have to restart Sense (through the today settings) to get it back to working to only have it freeze up again later on. Any ideas how to fix it or what's wrong? I have most of the mods installed except the calendar tab update.

my weather wont update at all, wont connect to the network, any suggestions?

Have you deleted the forecast cache?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
Hi,

I've ported New_Contact_Card_1_0_19183725_00 fully to VGA (landscape). However I haven't resize the images to VGA yet as I currently do not have any image edit which can save BMP in 16-bit (required mode). I searched around the net and GIMP suppose to be able to do so, but I'm downloading now.

Anyway got to go to sleep as it is 2:51 AM here. I'm hoping that when I wake up, somebody resized all the images (landscape only).

Attached is the CONTACTEDITOR.EXE only.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Are we also able to scroll in landscape with your fixed version?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
Yes. Only the images is cut off (because they are still in WVGA).

Got to go to work! It's 6:41 AM

PS: Please please... when I reach home tonight somebody already resized all the landscape images.. :)

Darn, cooked a ROM and flashed before I went to sleep. Home internet goes down (Touch Pro connected to laptop), laptop goes to sleep and Touch Pro automatically connect via 3G (because of activesync) and sync everything. There goes 20% of my monthly phone plan in the drain in one day... :eek:

Edit: Btw, to calculate VGA width = 640 - ( 800 - WVGA width )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
I'll see what I can do as far resizing images goes. Fortunately I just reinstalled photoshop about a week ago.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeniroInk:
Tried deleting 'forecast cache' using total commander & it wouldnt let me delete it.... id'e really like to get the weather update working...

Make sure Sense isn't running when you try to delete it.

Help plz

I tried to install this on HTC Diamond, to internal storage, with all the packs, so that didnt work...So my normal phone memory is full, and I was wondering also about problems with Manilla 2.0 and sense 2.1 overlapping, and if so, can I remove Manilla 2.0 withought a ROM update? and also apply this to the other packages found in this thread please (ROM: Satus ROM 6.5 (HTC Diamond 2 Version))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeniroInk:
works like a charm now.... Thanks!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Well I went ahead and tried to give it a shot resizing the images. I failed dismally(the image is resized, just looks like crap):
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
You must save the bitmap as 16-bit, not 32-bit or 24-bit. Not all image editor can do that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
Ok, I've done resizing all the images (at work, duh!). There is however one more thing for me to do. When the add photo button is pressed, a dialog box appeared (to choose the source of the photo). It is not centered yet.

Anyway, those working at HTC must be a bunch of weirdo. All the images are actually upside-down. What is actually done by HTC is, they flip the images (upside-down), and the make the height of the images negative, thus making them appear as they are. I have no time to hex edit all of them. So, the ported images, you'll see that they are now upside-down (when viewed by any image editor or image viewer) but they are actually correct when displayed in New Contact Card.

EDIT: Hmmm, I don't think I'll gonna finish porting the add photo dialog box. I've successfully moved the background but I also need to move the buttons too. Too much work to be done but not much anticipation. :p

I've attached the full package if anyone interested.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stoobie-doo:
Did you do anything else to get it to work? I deactivated Sense from today, deleted file, soft rebooted, re-enabled Sense, attempted to update, and failed. Did you follow any additional steps?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sc00basteve:
I have! Many people seems to prefer 6.5 builds, but after I copy/replaced the Tools folder (Thanks bootcamp for FS errors, heh) I've been running a 28011 build in this kitchen and Loving It!

Has anyone had any luck, or figured out, the g-sensor classes for this so I can give my Dad a Sense2.1 Diamond build for x-mas? :)

I mean I'm sure it would work great without them, but the TouchDiamond (when I had one) was much easier to use when Auto-Rotate was fully functional. Any help is appreciated but I will hunt around for the info as well. Cheers

x100 for animation on custom wallpaper please. Can anyone post/make a quickfix cab for this to work please? Im no brain so have no idea how to edit manlia files and what not, would probably just break my phone with my luck. Using NRG's 12-21-09 standard sense 2.1 rom on build 28014 and its working flawlessly! Only problem of course is zero animation if i change the home screen wallpaper to one of my own which is a HUGE drawback! Whats the purpose if we cant even have our own home wallpaper working??? Would greatly appreciate it, thank you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
try using a different version of htcscroll. an htcscroll.dll masquerading as htcscroll2.dll may cause problems.

that's a bug with manila itself. the alarm settings won't stick unless there's already a pre-existing alarm entry.

actually, i do have a mod for weather animation on custom wallpaper. it's embedded with some of my other unfinished mods. give me some time to separate it and release it as a standalone. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] benko286:

Hi! I have a bug... My icons of manila is some small... I don't see it... Sorry for my english. What i must doing?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
try these registry entries:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Weather.EnableCurrentLocation"=dword:0

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\InternetPush]
"EnablePushInternet"=dword:0

sense 2.1 may still require both GoogleLocationService and HTCGeoService to exist.

are you using custom slider icons? sense 2.1 slider icons aren't the same size as manila 2.x icons.

Music Tab and Bluetooth A2DP

I use bluetooth car stereo, with my fuze.

When playing music with the music tab through the bluetooth and using the remote for the car stereo to change tracks, it launches Windows Media Player.

I searched the thread for blue and bluetooth and found nothing.

I have seen "fixes" for this issue for the Manila 2.5 threads, which did not really fix it in 2.5.

The Windows Mobile build I am using is 28011.

Does anyone have a way to fix this?

Thank you very much! I find a problem - I randomly inserted into the kitchen transparent slider from Manila 2.1:D

Already transparent

EDIT: Stop Sense then copy it into your \Windows folder then soft rest.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeniroInk:
I installed the 'aGPS' .cab from the 1st post... then I deactivated sense & followed those steps. After that I connected to the web, minimized opera... then updated the weather & it works fine now
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stoobie-doo:
Hmm... I set up Sense by loading the combined 6.1 support CAB (I am on the AT&T Stock ROM since this is a company-owned phone) rather than the individual CABs, I wonder if that makes a difference.

I am curious, why run and minimize Opera? Was that to make sure you had a data connection established (I run Exchange ActiveSync, so I usually have the data connection on).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] koki1975:
Thanks. Looking great :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TMartin:
Good to hear!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeniroInk:
It will work with or without aGPS installed... sorry I just figured that out. I followed those steps that were given by yasinusta and that was pretty much it. But for some odd reason, when I hit "update now" my weather wont update, my data connection has to be running 1st... then it will work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
do you have any mods for the hometab installed, especially ones that modify the clock itself?

it must be installed to the device. you can probably install sense 2.1 over manila 2.0, but that will slow down file access quite a bit.

yes, i made it more simple to install by including all the necessary packages.

the documents tab is a beast on its own. it seems redundant for its service dll to import mode9.dll again. i'm thinking that this tab isn't entirely completed yet.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
just to keep people interested, here's a wip screenshot of my upcoming mod. i may not have enough time to add the other cool feature i wanted in there. i got too sidetracked with the new topaz manila 2.5 :o
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GadgetFreak:
That looks interesting...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] madnish30:
It looks rather cool...

But now that 2.5.2011.3030 is almost a VGA reality shouldn't we all be completely focused on 2.5 ?

Please someone tell me after landscape and speed on 2.5 why would anybody stick to 2.1 ??

I'm not being sarcastic just asking for a opinion as i can find no valid reason......

And anyways HTC will continue with 2.5 development not 2.1........

so just wondering ??

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TMartin:
That's HOT!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stoobie-doo:
So long as 2.5 can't be installed via CAB, I'll have to stay with 2.1 on my corporate owned device. My personal phone, anything goes (so long as I have a few hours and a recent backup :rolleyes:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TMartin:
A corporate owned device can be flashed back to stock too :p

I've flashed many work phones!!! including over peoples lol :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Badwolve1:
Ditto :D

I have a corporate Diamond :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] madnish30:
Absolutely agree...

But with all those huge dependencies i don't think Sense 2.5 will ever make it to a .CAB

And with that said I don't think Sense 2.1 will ever reach to HTC's mainstream snapdragon processors they would rather flaunt the graphics and the bling...

Wow nice guys lol..

I'm a student just 17 so I don't have corporate phones...

And i dare not ask my mum to get a windows because if i by mistake also brick that I'm so gone !

lol.

Anyways Cheers.

good to know your opinion...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
there's also the memory footprint. i'll be bouncing around between 2.1 and 2.5 for awhile. i already partially ported 2.5 (different from amarullz's own port).

it can probably be installed by cab since i remember getting it to work months ago when 2.5 was still fresh. the problem is, installing so many files to the device will slow down file access. that's why i would prefer to cook it in.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Nice to hear ur working on the port. For the person asking why we use 2.1 still for me simply because its bug free and fast! The day 2.5 is just as fast if not faster and bug free, ill stick with 2.1. I also dont like all the clutter on the 2.5 home page, reminds me of old school htc home on wm6.0/6.1! Now, its just more finger friendly and nicer looking but if u think about it, its just exactly the same as manila 2.5, lol! Time with alarm info/sms/email underneath, three rows or more of shortcuts to apps, only thing different in manila 2.5 is that it has a flashy weather show!

I always install compactsense home, no curtains, and transparant slider anyways to have the screen as clean and clutter free as possible. Rather look at a nice picture then a screen full of apps and what not. If i wanted that id get an iphone, lol! Love my att tilt2 but dont see manila 2.5 gettin too far on this device or the likes mainly cus of the OS compared to phones that manila 2.5 is ACTUALLY made for being double the OS as these wvga/vga devices. Im sure as newer version of manila 2.5 comes out it will be maybe quicker then now but dont see that happening real soon so manila 2.1 it is!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blast0id:
for anyone with a raph100/110 running latest EnergyROM, I did a mod "rollup" with some customizations... not sure if it will work the same on other devices or roms... but anyways here's the link to the original post if you would like to check it out...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] higher diamonds:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] madnish30:
I agree about the .CAB install part...

And about your port and AMARULLZ port i really can't think how it will be different except that two different developers did it.

Porting means scaling down the size to fit in our screens

So i wonder..

will you release it for public ???

How will we chefs chose one ??

never heard of two ports of the same generation of manila..

lol

anyways do keep us updated...

but ulitmtely manila 2.1 will fade away

But the latest version of 2.5 that is 2.5.2011.3030 is reported to be very fast compared to older versions..

And it has landscape from HTC itself so no more tweaks...

and clutter can ber removed minimised and loads of more tweaks there for 2.5 compared to 2.1 .......

you should try one of the ROMs with this version there are many ROMs on your devices section as the release was WVGA so it went straight on to devices !

Anyways i'm still on 2.1 just for the same reasons plus the lack of landscape atleast still 2.5.2011.3030 is ported for my VGA screen.

And now that i see two great developers amarullz and kimi both are preparing different ports things look good for the future..

cheers mate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stoobie-doo:
I guess I don't understand enough about the internals of these devices to know how having an app in program memory when installed via CAB vs. in ROM would differ so much, but I'll trust you. Either way, on a device I rely on for work email and Office Communicator more than anything else; being a fraidy-cat with the phone is the way to go. I'd be willing to live with a slow 2.5 CAB, or may make the switch at some point to that licensed SPB Mobile Shell I haven't been using to stay out of trouble.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
for now, my port will be kept private (at least until it's finished). i don't like releasing incremental updates and confusing people in the process. amarullz has had more experience than me with porting 2.5, so he knows what files to look for and will probably finish porting sooner. i'm learning what files do what as i go along. i already found a few things i'm not too fond of about 2.5 and will be tweaking them a bit (these will be optional).

i'll still be supporting 2.1 since it's light and fast and some people would prefer it that way :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] madnish30:
Thank you so much my friend, the fantastic work you guys do really means alot to us.

:D

Thank you.

Maybe you could give us a screenshot preview of your port ?

and i know that the tweaks you do are really good !

Like the one about the messages in the dialogue boxes they are really cool be careful HTC might steal your work ;) because their statement says that "whatever changes are mad on their work becomes theirs itself" some people say and believe that HTC took the landscap codes from ROTASTRAIN's landscape on 1921 ......

who knows....

Hello,

one short question. Can someone give me a short instruction, how to install the Sense 2.1 Email Tab Add-on V3 ported from Sense 2.5* on a german ROM. Where I have to put the xml files and what's about the translation.

thanks

Install the cab found in the zip file. Then in the xml folder, select the one representing your language and copy its content to \Windows.

Someone posted a link to MSDN describing the code used for each language. You can try searching in google for "MSDN locale code".
