Just what I've been waiting for!!!!!!!!!!! Looks amazing!!!!

EDIT: Any chance we can get this working for Manila 2.5 w/ Sense 2.1 messaging mod???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
I'd also like to encourage everyone to post their own skins once they make them and share with the community!

A nice library of skins for everyone to choose from is the goal of making the speech bubbles skinnable.

Enjoy everyone!!

Installed this on Energy.BLACKSTONE.21892.Sense2.1.16.Feb.2010.rar

But nothing changed... pressing the messaging tab still brings out wm messaging...

I installed the cab ... am I missing something? or is there something else I need to do?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daeinnor:
Sure works after converting to package & cooked in my TP. Thanks!

Will be watching out for your next porting project ... Sense 2.5.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
all in due time. meanwhile, you have amarullz's classic messaging mod for 2.5.. except that it might not work for wvga :)

that rom may be using a mod to redirect the messaging tab to wm messaging instead of manila messaging. if the people messaging tab isn't disabled, you can access it through people detail.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeniroInk:
How close are you to releasing a sense 2.5 port?? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
not that close. i'm porting it as i go along. i managed fixed some bugs that are present in the original wvga and amarullz's port.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TMartin:
I'll upload the EXT included in Calkulin's Kitchen that I use if that will help ya.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hasseye:
amazing work kimi...wish i still ran sense 2.1 to take advantage of all what u do....just wanted to say thank you.

i jumped ship to the 2.5 2012 port and its really a great port...i wish you can dedicate your time fixing any minor errors that remain and hopefully have every1 that still uses sense 2.1 to enjoy the benefits of 2.5 2012...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Request:

In regular manila 2.1 (yotgatz's version, iirc) the stock tab updated via wifi and gprs - basically any internet connection.

In sense 2.1 and 2.5, it seems to only update thru a gprs connection. Anybody have a ready mod, or know how to make it able to update via any connection?

I no longer have a data plan (short-term, anyway) but would still like to use the tab.

Thanks!

Call History Crash

I managed to fumble across a solution for the weather crash / updating issues I had (still not exactly sure which trick fixed it, but I followed a few suggestions found in this thread), but now I cannot resolve this Call History crash. I read something a page back about possible dll file issues, but I didn't see any sort of definite solution. Has anyone else been able to fix this one? If it is a dll issue, where would I find the correct dll files? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blast0id:
thanks for this... I have now included this, with energy themed "chat bubbles", in my energy themed sense 2.1 mod rollup... for those interested check my signature for a link to the post, I added a screenshot to show the look of the chat bubbles I made using kimi's template...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] higher diamonds:
thanks for all the hard work you have put into sense 2.1

messaging mod is working good so far :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] buzzard808:
For Those Having Call History Crash

Ok. Something told me to check the Gen Y 1.5 Manila 2.1 cab file to see if there were any files that may be missing from the Sense 2.1 cab and sure enough, I was missing the ContactUtility.dll file. I extracted it from the Gen Y cab and placed it in my \Windows folder and now I no longer get the crash when accessing the Call History (YEAH).

Now, the only issue I have is when I access the Event tab or All Contacts tab within the Call History screen. Just need to find out what else is missing now. Hope this helps others.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
The ContactUtility.dll that matches this port was posted in this thread at least 3 times in the time this thread has been here. Use the correct NewContactCardEditor from THIS thread and use the ContactUtility.dll from THIS thread and all those problems will go away. I don't have any of the problems that ANYONE in this thread has mentioned to date.

SIDE NOTE:: If there are any skinning genious's out there who are interested, we need a "Manila-like Skin" for the new speech bubbles to make it better match the UI.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vernox701:
Do you think 2.5 is too big for verizon touch pro with the memory crunch. I tried sense 2012 and 1921 but the messaging is just so much slower than sense 2.1. Although I like that sense 2012 vga port has nice menus and has a newer look everything works for me using 2.1 right now So thanks for the alternative
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Made a small tweak to the SMS bubbles but it still needs a lot of work to make it look more manila-like in style.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] teorouge:
Sorry Kimi, is it possible for you to provide an EVK package for that mode? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GadgetFreak:
Kimi, Any thoughts about porting the eReader tab to 2.1?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
that may be related to manila.exe itself. lua code can't really change much in that regard :(

2.5 is a memory hog. it helps a bit to disable tabs that you don't use, but at the end of the day, you may find yourself low on memory.

i attached it below. make sure it gets added after the sense 2.1 packge.

that tab uses a manila service dll to load ebook locations and images as well as the eReader engine. so, it might not even be possible to do on 2.1. afaik, 2.1 can't load dll's that aren't already defined in manila.exe. currently, only pre-existing tabs have the possibility of being (partially) ported since they may share some common functions.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SDreamer:
I just recently moved to a 6.5 build (21884), and I'm using the album included in the packages for Sense 2.1 from this thread (one in the kitchen I use is WVGA, so I'm using the one from here (build 3_0_19181428_0), and I find it extremely slow when I use the scroll wheel to zoom. Am I using the right album or is there a different version I should be using?

EDIT: The included Topaz VGA for 6.1 seems to work with 6.5... guess its fixed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hamid.plus:
Dear Kimi,

I would be realy pleased if you could develop a WVGA version for "Sense 2.1 Retractable Slider mod"

Thanks a lot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sharkie405:
The glass clock? Which one? There are several. Here's my favorite...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SDreamer:
Was wondering if anyone had any other icon sets, perferably the original leo slider icon set (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=546496&highlight=atom+manila+icons) not the 1919 version. Trying to find something with a "neutral" color palete (not too fond of all the green of Sense 2.1 has by default. On the topic of color, has anyone modded the color highlight (the green when you tap one something) to something else?

Chat Bubbles

Here is my attempt at some chat bubbles hope you like.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hector_huerta:
I finally found how to do this.

using MortScript you create a new File for example NewAppointment.mscr

with this:

Fecha=FormatTime("Ymd")

Run ("\Windows\HTCAppointment.exe","--mode=new --date="&Fecha)

then you can execute directly the NewAppointment.mscr (for example adding as a shortcut in QuickLaunch)

I hope this help you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ipeedalil:
hello first off thank you for the port and the wonderful mods its great but i do have an issue with the panoramic bg mod and the weather animation mod not working together i was wondering if ther is a work around or if some one could point me in the right direction

Here are some clock cabs I made up for Sense 2.1 vga

touch below the taskmanager to toggle between Flip clock, analog clock, or both

They don't work with BGmod (they have it already)

Added a Clean Home cab that works with my clocks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Screenshots?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tank001:

After installing the clocks i can not change the backround.

whats the problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vernox701:
HD Mini Lockscreen

Does anyone know if the new hd-mini lockscreen will work on sense2.1
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tank001:
You have to uninstall BGmod and Compact home before installing the clock they don't play nice, then install the clean home cab I made if thats the look you are going for ( I never tried them with panaramic background but I suspect they will also not work with that mod )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mwalt2:
The lockscreen is not dependent on manila, so yes (but only 6.5 and 6.5.x as far as I know).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vernox701:
okay thanks Will give it a try
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Stephan_X:
Thanks for the hint! after uninstalling Compact home now it works fine!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Berth666:
sorry for the question but is there anywhere a application to config the sense?

The delete tabs and so on.

Don't found anything...

thank you
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sharkie405:
I'm not using Sense 2.1 at the moment so forgive my lack of memory, but can't you rearrange and remove tabs using the settings tab?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gmic1000:
Yes, it's possible.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Berth666:
yeah that's right - thank you

"someone made a simple request to add the carrier network provider text back to the homescreen which i had removed from my port. this little mod will add it back in. the downside is, i had to reduce the number of upcoming appointments from 5 to 4 just so everything will fit."

Is it possible to add this text on the normal home screen ?. I know that the clock will obscure it, but i can make the clock smaller. I tavel a lot and it is a pain to flick back and forth to see the carrier...thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vernox701:
Network Carrier on Homescreen

Not sure how to edit the manila files to achieve the results you want but those are the files you need.

Here are some clock cabs I made up for Sense 2.1 vga

touch below the taskmanager to toggle between Flip clock, analog clock, or both

They don't work with BGmod (they have it already)

Added a Clean Home cab that works with my clocks

-----After Installing dual clock white...and soft reset ....nothing happens!

not installed Compact Home or Bg Mod !!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tank001:
Do you have any other mods installed try uninstalling them first then the clock cab, if you have none and installed my cab did you tap below the task manager to toggle through the different clocks you can have just flip, just analog, or both

Hello.

Sorry for my bad English.

I have 1 question.

How can I completely disable Home Weather Animation?

I'll try this code

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000001

but it don't work.

Waiting for yours help.

Thnx.

I've seen people report other time zone problems, but not this one...

I travel back and forth between Dallas and NY. When I am in NY and Sense detects my location, the time is set correctly. When I am in Dallas and I get location detected, my phone is set an hour ahead. I have a city for weather/time as Dallas - that shows up correctly, it's only "My Location" that is wrong. Furthermore, when I first land in Dallas and the phone gets the time signal from AT&T, the clock is set correctly; it's only when I get weather/location that things go wrong.

Has anyone seen this - and more importantly, fixed this? I am using a Fuze with the Stock AT&T ROM and the VGA port with yotgatg's service pack v1.1

My homescreen link to call register on Touch Sense 2.1 stopped working. When I have a missed call nothing happens on homescreen. Still there is sign "call register" and not "1 missed call", also led notification on my Diamond will not start. Diamond acts like nothing happened. After clicking on call register line on home screen there is the missed call but the notification is missing. I installed Resco Contact manager and I´m using it as a call register but I still want to be notified about missed calls. Any suggestions what does this and how to solve it? Thanx in advance.

Hi,

I'm looking for double clock but without Background4all... Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
use a custom wallpaper and don't install the weather wallpaper mod. that registry setting looks like it's for sense 2.5.

i don't travel between time zones, so i've not experienced this firsthand. this sounds like an issue with the location service itself.

is the resco contact manager intercepting the call notifications? sense relies on wm state and registry changes. if wm isn't seeing them, then sense won't see them either.

i'm not running sense 2.1 right now, so i won't be able to mod and test it at the same time. the little free time i have is spent providing some support to fixable issues :o
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bliind:
I'm having a problem with your retractable slider mod. I love it, but I can't seem to change the slider, which is a problem because I'm using EnergyROM and it's a transparent slider, so I have no top layer icons, so whichever icon I'm on is hidden. Not a huge deal, but if there's a way around it, it would be greatly appreciated.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stoobie-doo:
I figured out the problem... For some reason, the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HKLM\Software\HTC\TimeZoneAutoFix\UseWeatherSetting was set to 1; changing it to 0 stopped the behavior (which was basically to retain the time zone of the 1st place identified by the location service)

calling contacts

hi,

I am using the ROM given in my signature and installed your Sense port. Thanks you for your effort and fine result.

But: It is unable for me to call a contact via the People tab section or direct from the All People list. I have four buttons under the contact picture in the flip mode. Pressing the left two nothing happens, pressing the right two, text and email messages pops up to get compossed.

Does anyone other have this issue with no calls dirct from contacts? Using the Windows Mobile contact manager it works.

Maybe does the Manilla port redirects to another dialer (tachi?) which I dont have installed?

Thanks for your help :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] T4J:
hi , same here, anybody knows what's wrong?

thx in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mwalt2:
Yes, you need a dialer from a phone with manila 2.x on it. The tachi one works, there's a vga leo port by pyrorob here, a qilin vga port and rhodium vga port by amarullz. The qilin is in this thread somewhere and rhodium in this one.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rottgrub:
Is there a way to disable access to the "week view" of the calendar tab add-on? I searched, but didn't see anything. I would imagine I could edit the manila file that provides the menu, but if there is an easier way it would save some time.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rottgrub:
Found it. I edited "26948339_manila" and removed the menu item, and then updated "50279975_manila" such that any reference to week view would instead open Day view (just in case).

In case folks are curious, I am doing this since Week view causes the tab to lock up when the mod is built into Manila 2.1 (rather than with Sense 2.1).

Cheers!

I can not find the home.nl-nl.xml ( or home.de-de.xml ) ( i am from germany)

and i can not find any language pack .. only the "old" pack from geny Manila2.1

Can you tell me, where i can find a german translation, or what i must do, to get the Weatherclock

without IDS ?

many thanks..

And how can i chose another city to home tab? Why only my location?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SDreamer:
I was wondering if it was possible to fix some shortcuts, specifically the contacts shortcut. When I click on contacts from the Programs menu, or the Start menu it brings me back to the Windows Mobile contacts, and not the contacts of Manila/Sense. The same goes from when I hit the call history icon (not softkey) of the tachi dialer, it brings me to windows mobile call history, and not the sense/manila call history. Or is there a way to disable the sense/manila contacts and call history page, while still retaining the function of the people tab? Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
To add another city to Home tab, tap on the clock in Home tab and add city. That would also add it to the Weather tab.

My Location is not perfect and it doesn't seems to work with all cell towers even within the same area. For example, when I am in my house, I would be in the coverage of 2 cell towers, one is not working with My Location (maybe due to the fact that it is not in Google's database) and another is working. All I need to do is move my device to different location in my house.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
The shortcuts in the Start Menu are hard-coded to specific target. Since the Contact shortcut is hard-coded to native Contact, it would of course open that. In the Sense package, there is a registry value that when enabled would cause Sense to create some shortcuts to Sense Contact, and etc and it is disabled by default. Find it and enable it. Upon first start-up (after a hard-reset or a flash), Sense will create the shortcuts for you. For the WM native shortcuts, just delete them.

Btw, I'm assuming that you're cooking your own rom.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
can you clarify what "message sent report" is?

i ported this mod to 2.5.2012 already but haven't released it yet. there are a few more things i want to fix and add to it first. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cnzqy1:
Can you make it a registry setting for the character count limit? For us who use UNICODE message very often would like a setting of 70/67 instead of 140/134.

BTW, can you post the lua script of Sense 2.1 Messaging mod? I tried decompile but not 100% success, I just want to change the limit.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kimi_sae_ireba:
i'll add a registry setting to switch between 7-bit (default), 8-bit, and 16-bit characters in the near future.
