Did any bros know how to how hidden folder in Leo for call sms blocker?

I cannot find the folder in the sms page. How to show up the folder in this like WM6.1
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Peaster111:
Folks,

I thought I'd share a couple of skins a made for the WM6.5 Locksreens. They are made using Leo graphics and my own. One Skin is for the MS Locksreen and the other is for the HTC Locksreen.

Currently... these are only VGA.

The pics are of the MS Locksreen, as I don't currently have the HTC Lockscreen installed.

I prefer the MS Lockscreen. Why?... The background on the MS locksreen is the same as your current windows wallpaper. The HTC Lockscreen uses a fixed background. Two files in the windows directory must be changed... (1) "htc_lockscreen_bg.png" (2) "htc_lockscreen_bg_l.png". A reboot is required before the changes take effect.

The themes are almost identical the main difference is the buttons and the background. The HTC Lockscreen retains the default HTC background and buttons.

Hey guys,

I was wondering if its possible to change the keyboard language (or add an option to switch between languages) ?

And is it possible to allow the HD2 to preview other languages ? (e.g. a message thats not written in english ) While not changing the GUI language.

I would appreciate your help :)

Thanks
[HD2 General] ZaZu90:
Anyone please ?
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
TRY AT OWN RISK!!!! I CAN NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS, LOSS OF DATA, ETC!

*EDIT*

For now I just created a Mortscript file doing all these operations. Place it in a folder with the files from the zip in the first post (the following):

1de372cc_manila

3fee37f0_manila

24DBB12A_manila

57a92846_manila

64c98668_manila

247c62d4_manila

345f892c_manila

486d3b1a_manila

0828aea6_manila

3633be96_manila

People_Pages.xml

I commented out some stuff, please check the file for comments. Some registry settings I don't change myself, you can enable them by removing the brackets (#) in front of the corresponding lines.

Use at own risk of course (Mortscript is needed for this...)

*EDIT*

ORIGINAL POST:

Well, because I hated the 2.5 messaging and didn't like the fix of disabling it and going back to windows classic messaging (not being able to tap the sms in the message tab and all) I decided to just give the following a try:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5202063#post5202063

For information, using the Topix 0.2 rom at the moment!

What I did was the following:

0. Download the archive file ;)

http://manilavga.googlecode.com/svn...nse_amarullzNoMessagingClient_2.0.0-BETA2.zip

1. Disable sense (Disable it in the today settings)

2. Make a backup of all the files you are going to replace, just in case :) These are the files in the archive above.

3. Rename/delete the ManilaFull.xml in the windows dir (mentioned in that thread as well).

4. Copy the manilla and xml files from the .zip to the windows folder (in the zip there are a few manila files in subfolders, these are language files it seems and I just put them all in the windows dir, so not in the subfolder).

The PeoplesPages.xml I also copied to the ManillaXML folder in the windows folder.

4b. Extra step! Copy the file found in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5203019&postcount=1308

Into the windows folder as well, overwriting the other manila file. This fixes a double-tap not opening the message bug...

5. Enable sense again

6. Restart

7. Add rotation to it using BSB Tweaks

(8). I had the HTC messaging disabler cab installed and uninstalled it afterwards...

I think this was all...

Apart from some expected (it was made for VGA afterall) graphical issues (mainly in landscape mode) it actually seems to work fine!

The messages are divided over different pages now, no lag when loading, etc...

Just tried it now so I might find more issues soon but thought I'd mention it at least in case brave souls want to give it a try ;)

Again, try at own risk!!! Haven't been able to test it extensively!
[HD2 General] millski:
Any chance of some screenshots? The graphical VGA issues are holding me back from trying it...
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Sure :)

Uploaded a portrait and landscape pic, just when the keyboard is displayed there is some overlap on the top. Nothing really bad though... Hope this helps, I'll see if there's something else I can make a screenshot of. But now, first dinner ;)
[HD2 General] millski:
Seems to work OK for me too :) Using Balaji 1.1 rom on Blackstone (HD), WM 6.5.x and Leo 2.01 based. Haven't tried landscape (I don't use it) but portrait seems to work fine. Only slight irritation is keyboard doesn't pop up on reply until you tap the text entry area. Much quicker than the laggy 2.5 messaging client :)

BTW I used the files from 0409 folder only, which I believe is English language. Well I'm English, and it worked anyway...
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Good to hear! :)

Don't know if the keyboard thing was different with the original software? But still, atleast a fast messaging app :)
[HD2 General] Maedhros:
Just tried this on my TP2.

Works GREAT thanks!!!
[HD2 General] Martyn Day:
is there an eaiser way to do it? lol
[HD2 General] NSider:
It works for me! Thanks dagrim1.

Not perfectly, though. Clicking on the send message link in the contact card will restart Sense, and the same will happen if I choose the messaging tab inside the contact card.

Using the 1.61 Turkish ROM (will switch to EnergyROM soon).

It should be possible to do it through a cab file. Anyone up for it?
[HD2 General] rumpleforeskin:
working for me on the topaz.

The overlap bug is more acceptable than the lagging message, thank you
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Hmmm, some possible bugs?

1. Capitalize letter when starting a new sentence doesn't work? Maybe it's the rom though, heh...

2. When sending a message I don't see the contact but just the phone nr as the recipient. Clicking the msg DOES open the contacts tab (and goes to msg tab) but then the msg isn't listed there...

Still trying to find out an easier way to do all this as well.
[HD2 General] NSider:
One more bug: clicking on "menu" doesn't show anything.
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Hmmm, does with me... You mean after opening a msg? In the msg-tab from the people/contacts tab so to say?
[HD2 General] Djemba:
Doesn't seem to work for me. Though I use Leo's Dutch version and the Dutch country code isn't included in the files. Anybody knowing a solution?

Or you need to do anything with the app.reg and _skip?
[HD2 General] NSider:
Yes. I see a flicker on the screen, but nothing pops up.
[HD2 General] Michiel0211:
Anyone up for making a CAB?

I can't seem to change things in my windows folder, even though SENSE is off. :(
[HD2 General] Noam23:
For anyone curious, this will not fix the SMS sending message problem.
[HD2 General] agent.m:
by change do you mean copy files? as i get a message saying i dont have permission when using activesync and i get

cannot copy '345f892c_manila': access is denied
[HD2 General] Michiel0211:
Exactly the same thing.

Acces denied. How do we circumvent this?
[HD2 General] andy murray:
much faster sms but now seem to have the message sending bug on 1.61

any fix`/
[HD2 General] degake:
For all who have problems to copy files into windows folder.

Grtz,

Degake

EDIT:

I added separate cab files with tweaks founded in the original downloadpackage.

There are 2 folders: 1 for GSM and 1 for CDMA devices.

tweaks contained are: - max. sms shown upgraded

- different font sizes (going from 0 to 8)
[HD2 General] agent.m:
Dank u wel

thanks you a life saver :)
[HD2 General] degake:
Graag gedaan :)

You're welcome ;)
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Cheers for this :)

And is it possible to uninstall this cab, thereby restoring the original files?
[HD2 General] degake:
Cab should be uninstallable.

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 General] NSider:
Awesome, thanks!
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Great, thanks!

*Removed the file... still requires mortscript.exe. Will put up a new version but sudden;y doesn't work at my own phone either :P
[HD2 General] manan69t:
I am not sure if itw the right place for ask but i have big problem cause i cant create new folders at sms at LEO!

I swich of the threded sms but nothing and its very importand for me!

Any idea from somebody??:)
[HD2 General] DarkManX4lf:
I tried the cab in your post and it doesnt work.

I disabled sense, installed the cab, rebooted my phone and enabled sense but the messaging app doenst work. When I click on a message it goes to the messaging app and only shows a white screen instead of the messaging app.

I tried this twice...still nothing...uninstalling the cab goes back to 2.5 messaging app.
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Ah, experiencing the same thing... I'll give the manual copying another go since the 2.5 version is absolute crap for me as well :(
[HD2 General] degake:
I only cabbed out the manual tutorial posted..

So if it doesn't work... it isn't my fault ;)

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Hehe, I think it's an access issue... Manually copying with resco DOES work but you get the warning that you're replacing some windows file or something which you have to confirm...

Perhaps the issue is caused by that (because I saw the files in the windows folder weren't replaced after using the cab. Had the same thing when auto-copying the files with sashimi btw)
[HD2 General] degake:
If I install the cab, the files were replaced..

The only thing I noticed, was that it didn't delete the ManilaFull.xml.

This should now be fixed.

grtz,

Degake
[HD2 General] agent.m:
Have you tried using zenyee disable htc messaging .cab with it? I used this and have no probs now.
[HD2 General] degake:
I quickly added zenyee's cab into the file.

Maybe this works better.

grtz,

SMS sending problem

After having set this up with the cab kindly provided by degake, this works now on my Manila 2.5.1921.

Nevertheless, it seems i'm having some (minor) issues, when sending SMS:

The sent SMS don't show up in the thread - only those, i receive.

In the Inbox the sent SMS show, but not with name, but only with number of recipient.

Is there any fix for that yet - or any thread where this is already discussed?

Thanks for any input!

Regards,

Klaas.
[HD2 General] degake:
You should search for this in the original thread, I think..

I'm not able to get the unread message number on the slider (the bubble showing how many unread message you have)

any ideas?
[HD2 General] andy murray:

[HD2 General] stianbert:
Any solution about the slider-alert. Using Max Manilla and the notification icon doesnt show howe many message...
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Yeah, also have the issue of sent sms only showing the nr and not the name (and thus not popping up in the 'total' conversation). I did notice that for one time it suddenly updated the nr... no idea why!

Hadn't noticed the unread msg nr on the slider issue yet.

You people also not getting automatic capitals when starting a sentence? This only when typing an sms in the conversation view...
[HD2 General] riotburn:
does this work for TP2?
[HD2 General] xwpx520:
my Rom: Dutty's Topaz Sense 2.5 Holy Grail R6 Multi-Lang |WWE]

Manila: 2.5.19211619

maybe you can try to follow my way.

but after install still got issue of unread number of message

this is my way:

1. Disable Sense (Disable it in the today settings)

2. Delete the "ManilaFull.xml" in the "..\Windows" folder.

3. Copy all the files to the "..\Windows" folder.

4. The "PeoplesPages.xml" also copy to the "..\Windows\ManillaXML" folder

5. Import "app.reg"

6. Rename "MessagingService.dll" to "MessagingService.dllx" in the HKLM\services\MSG.

7. Rename "SMS" to "SMS.htc" in the HKLM\system\inbox\externalaccounts.

8. Soft Reset your phone.

9. Enable Sense again.

sorry i just learn English, hope you can understand it. ^_^
[HD2 General] stianbert:
have someone tried this last registry edit;-)
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
@xwpx520: Thanks for the suggestion, was planning on flashing my rom again today so I'll give it a try and report back how it works out for me :)
[HD2 General] xwpx520:

[HD2 General] stianbert:

[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Unfortunately it didn't work for me. At least... still no auto-capital with a new sentence.

Now time for sleep ;)
[HD2 General] xwpx520:
sorry, i don't know how to make CAB file.:(

yes this problem still got, but for me the auto-capital i don't care.

i only care is that it quickly or not and can send and get message
[HD2 General] stianbert:
Can you make a cab out of this? about auto-capital, in my original 6.1 rom this were a problem to, in chat-mode
[HD2 General] xwpx520:
Tested on this Rom: Dutty's Topaz Sense 2.5 Holy Grail R6 Multi-Lang |WWE]

Else I do not know

1. Disable Sense (Disable it in the today settings)

2. Delete the "ManilaFull.xml" in the "..\Windows" folder.

3.

Copy all the files to the "..\Windows" folder.

4. The "PeoplesPages.xml" also copy to the "..\Windows\ManillaXML" folder

5. Import "app.reg"

6. into "HKLM\services\MSG"

set up "Dll" value="MessagingService.dllx"

7. into the "HKLM\system\inbox\externalaccounts"

Rename "SMS" to "SMS.htc"

7.a. into "HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging\Compose",

set up "ExecPathName" value="Tmail.exe""

8. Soft Reset your phone.

9. Enable Sense again.

that's all

sorry i don't know how to make CAB file
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Yeah, not THAT big an issue for me either. I just use the conversation view for looking at the sms and the 'new msg' button for sending sms. Works fine like that and at least now I can see all my msgs.
[HD2 General] andycted:
Hi,

testing this with blackstone flashmore rom v16d and everything works ok.

After trying the fix without the two registry changes, sms/mms were stuck in outbox. After fixing the two registry changes that went away but I think now there is no unread sms count available ? [edit] no, I don't even have that problem apparently (after a soft reset maybe ?)

Anyway the speed increase is huge, so thanks for the fix.
[HD2 General] xwpx520:
dagrim1 , can you make a CAB for this thing?

because i also don't like manual to do.:D
[HD2 General] masrterk:

sms bug 1.61

Hi,

I'm on a blackstone with flashmore 1.6d rom. I also experience this problem, here is what I've found out:

- composing the sms with the 'new sms' button in the sms tab works ok, the sms gets correctly sent

- If I compose it in the contact sms page i remains stuck in the outbox - EDIT: fixed with the two registry entries, lost unread count though

- If I send a sms with the first method, all other sms stuck in the outbox are sent together at that moment

- Replying to a sms takes you to the contact page so it gets stuck too

- Disabling Sense and sending a sms through HTC Messaging works ok, which I guess is what happens in the first method

- Trying to resend a message stuck in the outbox from HTC Messaging has no effect

- Changing the registry to Tmail.exe doesn't change much about this problem, except for not being able to press new sms button and 'all messages'

Any fixes for this 'stuck in outbox problem' ?

On the other hand the sms history in the contact page load correctly and nicely

By the way the reg file has an error I think (a double ==)
[HD2 General] shu8i:
it's working pretty well on mine :) besides that it crashed if I go to the menu. and how do i look at my old messages?
[HD2 General] andycted:
Are you on a HD2 ? Also, if you send a sms from the contact page you have no problems, it gets out of the outbox ?

best regards
[HD2 General] shu8i:
i'm on the hd2, and the messages don't get stuck in the outbox, but before i didn't have this issue either...
[HD2 General] andycted:
ok, so may that the problem arises when executing the fix on a blackstone, while works on the leo...

you know, the funny thing is that I could swear that it was working ok until yesterday...
[HD2 General] andycted:
works

Apparently not ! I've just hard reset and retried: now it works, however I'm afraid to know what I did to break the functionality !

I've done everything including the two manual registry change, but not the tmail.exe one

Now I've got a doubt: when restoring about 1000 sms via pimbackup, in the original interface there where none in the contact tab ! After using this fix everything is ok
[HD2 General] fone_fanatic:
Thanks!

Guys, these are simple steps, no need for a cab, although i might create one later before i flash my next rom so i can auto install

Just did this and the msgs showed up in classic mode, turned on threading, SR and now no msgs :( OOPS nvm, they're threading now :) took a bit to show up :P

UPDATE

So i noticed it threaded all the messages that i have restored which were received when i wasn't using sense 2.5 (when i was on sense 2.1)

The ones received while using 2.5 didn't thread and have "-GSM" in them after the text.
[HD2 General] wez89:
Yeah like a previous post said, they are easy steps, took me no longer than 2mins to copy the files over. Works great, no issues and looks better than the standard messagingclient of 2.5 :P
[HD2 General] andycted:
Some experiments

I've managed to make it work on this blackstone with flashmore 1.6 rev3 (Sense 2.5.1922) installed, following the normal instructions. Then I started playing a bit, here is what I've found out:

- after copying the files but not applying the registry fix it didn't work for me (same 2.5 interface if I recall correctly)

- after applying all the first registry entries, leaving out the dllx, SMS.htc and Tmail.exe ones, it seems to work, however I can't send from the contact tab, it says 'sim card not ready'. It seems to me that even from HTC Messaging sms get stuck in the outbox in this way.

- after applying the SMS.htc registry edit, it works, but I lose unread sms count. I think that if you don't apply the dllx registry the messages are stuck in the outbox

- If you have SMS.htc key along with a SMS key, it doesn't work too

- If you modify something while testing you are better off disabling Manila deleting Manilafull.xml, do the modifications, then reboot

- Also after adding all the registry entries, clicking send sms on the first tab of a contact (or using a fav shortcut set to send sms) doesn't produce anything

- adding the tmail.exe registry entry doesn't produce any effect apart from not opening the new sms when clicking on the messages tab

- the mortscript didn't work for me, it didn't copy the files correctly

so it works, however I don't have unread count anymore...anyone has a clue how both can be achieved ? Or at least what is the cause for the Sim not ready message ?

[EDIT: some time later]

So, some hours later after playing with the phone and maybe installing stuff I've noticed that again the sms got stuck in the outbox and at the same time the 'sim not ready' message appeared from the contact tab (very probably they are the same problem). I've checked the registry entries and the files for this fix and even reapplied them to be sure... no go ! So I've actually tried to restore the registry entries for dllx to dll and SMS.htc to SMS... now it works and I also get unread sms count notifications. Still a mistery what happened, however seem to work !

EDIT AGAIN: it seems the sms stuck in outbox come and goes randomly and isn't related
[HD2 General] Speadge:
found a bug:

sms sync with exchange 2010 doesnt work as it should:

by sending a message via the classic / manila client, it appears on my server in "sent items" with recipient and the message, i.e.: "Bin Laden, Osama".

By Using THIS Client, the message also appears in "sent items" on the server, but the recipient part looks like:

"" [MOBILE: +49176*********]

--> no recipient name..

Doesnt sound very hard, but it makes exchange miss those sms in conversation trees, what makes it hard to follow up any conversation and make the "conversation view" in exchange useless.

i think that exchange doesnt like the two quotes at the beginning.

Can s.b. fix that???

Thanks in advance

Edit:

the recieved sms are looking fine all time!

It completely fixed all my lag problems. And I haven't had any messages stuck in my inbox since installing. It did introduce another bug where it would select the previous message. Fairly irritating, but nothing worse than some of the other bugs the phone has.

[HD2 General] BumAround:
can you please confirm that the sms/mms 'stuck' in the outbox bug has gone forever? :confused:
[HD2 General] fone_fanatic:
I followed the steps in xwpx520's Post and everything worked really damn well!

I applied this fix/tweak jan 5th and only noticed the following 2 issues:

1. You don't get the unread message number over the messaging icon in touchflo.

2. when receiving a message from a news site informing me of breaking news with a link to watch the news video, it comes up as "New Push Message" and one i open it the contents are empty (takes me to another messaging client). But if i tap on all messages, its listed there with the other messages and i can view the link.

Just flashed to NRG's jan 25th rom and about to re-do this and hopefully everything will go well.

btw, my cab creating software is acting funny and need to reinstall, will get around to making the cab sometime soon hopefully.
[HD2 General] BumAround:
I t did work really damn well at the first 12 hours, before the stuck in the box bug crawled in. Well, but then I have 700+ messages restored from PIM Backup. I don't know, one thing for sure this thing doesn't work really damn well, and I blame in on Sense 2.5.... :(
[HD2 General] BumAround:
Anybody?

btw, I did apply the following reg edit:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\MSG]

"Dll"="MessagingService.dllx" from "MessagingService.dll"

....and it didn't help a bit.

I believe this stuck-in-the-outbox bug isn't ROM-related, it's just the Sense 2.5's shortcoming. :o
[HD2 General] Jawb:
Hello guys,

Can anyone confirm if this does work at all? I have tried a few times now, but every time the messages get stuck in the outbox. It looks so good compared to the "real" HTC messaging so I really wan't it to work!
