[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
Just wanted to mention that if you're overwriting the files in the CAB with the ones from the RAR I originally posted, you're actually overwriting a newer version with an older one. The DocumentBrowser tab version in the CAB is 20121926, while the version I originally posted is 20113211. Both, however, work fine on my VGA device, using a modified 26948339_manila file (I also include the Footprints tab, though).

I also saw your post that the 26948339_manila file may be looking for the Doc_Explorer.xml under \Windows is addition to under \Windows\ManilaXml - I can adjust the CAB to install it to both places, if you think that will solve the issue.

FYI - The CAB actually does everything for you, so you shouldn't have to disable Sense, or even delete ManilaFull.xml. I was able to simply install the CAB, restart when prompted, and it just worked. I'm not sure why it only works for some and not others.

And also, the CAB is only set up for 0409 (WWE) - The file location entries are likely not the same for other languages.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] User1977:
A German version of Manila obviously has some Manila files with other file names as an English version. Because of this I think, the German version uses another Manila file as the English version to show the title and so necessary file is missing or has the wrong file name. I should find out, which Manila files contain the text "[[IDS_COCUMENTSTITLE]]" and "Dokumente" (German for documents) in a German version of Manila with documents tab. Unfortunately, I don't know a German Rom with the documents tab. I use this Rom and the cook hasn't integrated the documents tab.

Another solution I have tried out are the registry entries in HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\Manila\Configuration\11. There I have changed "[[IDS_COCUMENTSTITLE]]" into "[[Dokumente]]", no effect.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltwater:
OK. Managed to extract the rom so should have all the files. But for now, you'll have to use the files from "Sense_2.5_Footprints_eReader_Documents_WVGA.rar" since there are about 450 files for footprints (and I'm not planning on testing it).

This is the steps which I expect you'll need to follow (note I am not testing it!)

1. Back up your stuff etc.

2.Disable "HTC Sense" from the Today page (Setting>Home>Items)

3. Edit your "26948339_manila", set page order correctly, and delete "ManilaFull.xml" which will be regenerated.

4. Place all the files from the "files" directory in \\windows\ (except Footprints_Pages.xml which goes in \\windows\ManilaXml).

4. Place FootprintsService.dll (file not dir) in \\windows\ too.

5. Import the registry items from app.reg

6. Add registry item, to enable settings page (if exists):

Something like, but for Footprints (sorry can't remember if there are settings for it, you might have to work this bit out yourself, I'm guessing this bit):

EDIT: 7. Don't forget to delete the "Configuration" key under HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila in order for it to show up in your Tab Customization (this will be re-generated on startup).

26948339_manila" Settings will be:

For eReader tab (again, not planning on testing this one yet or getting the 2012 manila files), but should be similar steps...

This may work it may not. Let me know, if it doesn't it may need the 2012 files instead.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltwater:
Well another long shot here, try putting (I'd guess just after <Manila Mode9Path="HTC\Manila\manila.mode9"> in 26948339_manila):

<trans-unit id="IDS_DOCUMENTSTITLE">

<source>Dokumente</source>

</trans-unit>

That's was something else I saw on my searching travels. Also try without the referencing [[ ]] where you were trying before.

Also, did you try changing it in the ManilaFull.xml? Sorry but I don't know enough yet, not much information around on how it fits together, so lots of edits and resets trying different things.

Ok, didn't realise the cab was 20121926, no probs. With 3 options of manila versions, it should give people a fighting chance then.

Doc_Explorer.xml etc seem to be fine just in my \Windows\ManilaXml folder, but might fix some someone's issue. Think the cab works fine for most, it seems. I guess the cab might have issues if the 26948339_manila has other info in it too (seen older versions with more in) as it is based on the NRG 26thFeb rom.

Anyway, glad you could see the thanks from everyone here 1st hand.

Ok, don't forget if you do more changes you'll have to re-generate the ManilaFull.xml file & re-edit (its built using 26948339_manila, _pages.xml files etc so was something in that process which was over-riding it).

Another post, another tab...

Been having fun with tabs here. I just managed to get a Call History tab (at the very same time manila loaded with it working, I found this thread which adds Call History tab and start menu tab). (So I take back my earlier comment about not been done for 2.5)

However, the results of my testing shows you can extract many of the existing sub menus from Manila and use directly as a tab (without adding any new xxxxxx_manila files). i.e. The Tab Manager, Comms Manager etc etc. The comms manager is still read only though, which suggests there are registry settings missing perhaps. I'll post how once I've shaken all the issues out and checked it doesn't mess anything else up. Also font/background is an issue, plus will change the soft key menus if I can (& sort out the icons too).

Also gives you a basic facebook update tab, since that is kinda in the People tab already. Of course, manila loading is slow with these extras so won't keep them all.

Status:

Comm Manager Tab (Read Only)

Tab Manager (Functional)

Documents Tab (Functional)

Call History (Functional)

Facebook Tab (Basic but Functional)

eReader Tab (waiting Test)

Footprints Tab (waiting Test)

Messaging Tab with HTC only (waiting for Message_Pages.xml file [PLEASE])

Edit:

You can use the attached file to add read-only comms, basic call history and basic facebook without adding any manila files (using the borrowed pages method) - by editing your own 26948339 & adding the sections you want, plus deleting the configuration registry entries to refresh the settings tab page. The call history tab linked above works too and looks much better though (so I'm using that instead).

For now, I've reached the limit of what I can do without looking deeper into it, I hope to be able to change fonts, add menus and ideally build tabs from scratch but will see about that.

this cab looks very promising. I installed it on my WWE Rom (With Turkish translation : MUI Code 041f) but it showed IDS_SEARCH, IDS_ALL strings on the tab. Do you guys know which manila file I should edit for those strings? I really don't want to switch to English. But a document tab would be really perfect :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
If you had the Footprints tab previously, but don't have it after installing my Documents Tab add-on CAB, it's because the Footprints tab is not included in the 26948339_manila file that gets installed by the CAB. To fix this, you simply need a CAB that will replace the 26948339_manila file with one that includes both tabs, and deletes the ManilaFull.XML so that Sense can refresh all the tabs. Just in case you've tried to customize the tabs, I would also delete the HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration registry key so that can refresh the tabs as well. How about I make this easy and make that CAB for you? :)

EDIT: CAB attached. Let me know how it works. NOTE: This is only for people that LOST their Footprints tab after installing the Documents Tab. It will NOT GIVE you a Footprints tab if it's not already cooked into your ROM.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltwater:
Oh right, been trying to sort it out on mine. (Unfortunately it's not the Messages_page.xml file then because it is the same as mine).

At the moment, I've got HTC messaging from the people tab and if I click on the message itself, but MS messaging from the rest of the messaging tab (annoying me it's not fully one or the other, but when I tried HTC 2.5 Messaging it was slow when not cooked in).

Unfortunately, can't quite find the reference points, I'm guessing in a luac script perhaps donno.

I've been trying to work out how manila is put together, but can't find much info around which explains it.

Edit: I just installed HTCSense_amarullzNoMessagingClient_2.0.0-BETA3 in an attempt to fix it. Still have the same problem (but with improved HTC messaging...). Just want to change the links in the Message tab...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Reporting an issue I see with the Documents Tab when installed on top of Rhodium Manila 2.5.

The documents tab looks at email inboxes, etc and lists email attachments (suitable documents that haven't been downloaded to the phone yet).

Clicking on one of these attachment/documents from Document tab triggers a download in the email tab. Most of the time, the download is successful and after a short time to download the document, the Document is displayed in the Document tab.

If for some reason, the download fails or if the App (say adobe acrobat) has an error opening the document, Manila freezes up as a whole. I remember seeing an error message in previous ROMs based on Leo/HD2 Manila, which had the Documents tab cooked in.

The Rhodium Manila appears to be missing some hook somewhere and just hangs (Start button & Native WM apps work). Not a major problem, but if it happens, the UI/Skin is completely gone and a full phone SR is needed.

This applies for any other language too.

I'm not aware of any language files for the documents tab, someone may have some, but the language files for other tabs are simple enough so you may be able to create your own.

The english (US) language files for the documents tabs are:

1a93e5c6_manila - ExpandedDocument

4db93f9f_manila - DocumentExplorerSettings

4e4ebb4e_manila - DocumentExplorer

35bfc9f0_manila - docicons

43326f20_manila - DocumentExplorerBrowse

<xliff version="1.0" lang="[B]en-us[/B]">
<file datatype="plaintext" original="DocumentExplorer">
<header/>
<body>
<trans-unit id="IDS_ALLDOCUMENTS_SK">
<source>All Documents</source>
</trans-unit>
<trans-unit id="IDS_LOADING_MESSAGE">
<source>Loading...</source>
</trans-unit>
<trans-unit id="IDS_DOCUMENTS">
<source>Documents</source>
</trans-unit>
</body>
</file>
</xliff>

You should be able to change the language code [lang="en-us"] to match your language code i.e. [lang="de-de"] & translate any of the id's using the above. At first just change the language code and see what happens...sorry but this is a guess but hopefully it'll start using the file since it will match your current language (you can translate after).

Of course do the normal delete of ManilaFull.xml etc etc to ensure it creates it new.

EDIT: This will probably not work, since the 1a93e5c6_manila is the file path and name which also include the language code. You will need to use manilaHASH.exe to generate suitable filenames.

i.e.

7825aca6_manila \windows\htc\people\locales\en-gb\peopleupdate.en-gb.xml

35452D58_manila \windows\htc\people\locales\en-gb\facebook.en-gb.xml

5470CE36_manila \windows\htc\people\locales\en-us\facebook.en-us.xml

1st try to work out the filename & path by trying to generate the manila number above for each of the files, then alter for your files. I'm 80% sure this will work if you do it right. (Please confirm if it does).

You'll need to restore your (26948339_manila) Tab Control file to not have the docs tab referenced, see my new wiki about the Tab Control file.

You will need to delete the entry for the documents tab:

<Page Order="XX" Name="docexplorer.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_DOCUMENTSTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\DocExplorer\documentexplorer.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true"/>

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltwater:
Thanks for the screen-shot, explains it now.

Oh right, I think I know what this is (although no idea why it's happening on yours and not mine). In the Tab Control file (26948339_manila), it defines the icons to be used for the tab:

"icon_normal" - is the icon shown on the tab slider

"icon_selected" - is the icon when the slider is on the tab

"icon_preview" - is the large icon shown when sliding over the tab.

It was confusing me since there isn't really a difference when you slide over the tabs normally and that the "icon_normal" and "icon_selected" appear to be the same for mine. One of your manila files will contain these icons, I expect the version of the file you have, the "icon_selected" is different to "icon_normal" so it shows the tab is selected by popping out more (but clearly that is not how the rest of our sliders are done).

You can either:

a) find the file with the icons in (i.e. using m9editor) and replace it with one from another manila package,

or:

b) the easy option to try is set your "icon_normal" and "icon_selected" to the same "DocumentExplorer_Off". Don't forget to delete manilaFull.xml to refresh manila.

Sorry but I can't test it, but that's my best guess. Otherwise, it may be the document script placing the icon wrong, but hopefully not.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltwater:
Shame, unfortunately then it's a lot harder to fix. It will probably require a change in the one of the 115 manila files either the icon or I'm guessing one of the mode9 files. Unfortunately I'm still learning with manila so it is too big a job for me to try to find where this is occurring (particularly since it doesn't for me).

The document tab here is simply an unmodded copy of the files from the ROM kitchens, the cab just does a few of the manual reg changes and allows manila to reset.

As I said you can try other versions of the files it may be different, but I couldn't say for sure. The set I posted for "Manila_DocumentBrowser_2_5_20121225_0" was extracted from NRGs 16th Feb ROM, this is what I copied over the top of the cab install for my 26th Feb NRG install.
