[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
So are you saying that scrolling in the Message tab works for you using the 2016 Core (when not using Messaging Client)? The reason I used the 2012 Core is because it wasn't working for me. What did you have to do to get it working?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Just the usual registry trick by cnzqy1. The only problem is with 2018 Core. However as stated, it's caused by manila.exe.
[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
I think I'm confused. First thing is that my Photos & Videos tab is bigger when Landscape is enabled, not disabled. I don't know if that's due to the old Core I'm using.

And I cannot for the life of me find the registry trick you're referring to by cnzyq1. The only mod I found was the CDMA fix, which shouldn't affect scrolling in the people tab, right?

EDIT: And I just tried Fullscreen mode for the Photos tab using the 2016 Core, and I still have the same issue. Could it be the version of Album I'm using?

How to disable the HTC messeging client ? Is it a dependency ?

Zenyee CAB doesn't seem to work, it enables Windows style messeging but no message can be opened and nothing can be composed.

The reg tweak posted on first post doen't seem to work for me :/

Any other way ?

PS: when i cook in HTC messeging client and it is enabled the emails can't be opened and neither a new one can be composed..

Any help ?

PPS: using 2.5.2016, Build 23569, Rhodium dialer.
[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
Okay, here's an odd update - Everything's working now. I changed nothing (I just added some packages I didn't even use), and now TMartin's mod from 2012 is working with the 2016 Core/People tab. AND, so is Fullscreen mode in the Photos tab. The ONLY thing that's still weird is the size of the Pictures in the Photos & Videos tab (2016 ported version). The only time they appear the right size is when Landscape is disabled. I would update to 2018, but I don't CFC my Manila anymore, and the ported packages are CFC (thay are, right?) :rolleyes:.
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Ok, now I'm confused... :)

Regarding the Photos tab, originally when I was porting 2016, I maintained the photos to the correct size (as what they should be). Then people started complaining that they are too small and yada yada yada... So, I enlarged them, and then some other people started complaining that they are too big and yada yada yada... so I just ignored the whole thing and leave it as it is now. Yes, the one in 2018 also has the same size as 2016, but I reduced the size a little...

So now, I do not know what is the right size anymore... :eek:

EDIT: Attached is two batch files I wrote to CFC and unCFC manila files. Just extract them to the folder where you put all the manila packages in. Then drag and drop each of the manila package folder onto either cfc.bat or uncfc.bat for it to do its work. See screenshot attached on how to use.
[Windows Mobile] madnish30:
any help please, i have checked the message enhancement its ok,

still cant open messages in email inbox and can't reply or compose.

Also cooked in the No Htc Messegiung client reg, but still htc messeging client is default.

do i need to cook in kimi's patch or amarullz's patch along ?

how do i disable HTC messeging and enable windows messeging?

is Messeging client a dependency ?
[Windows Mobile] accessing:
what worked for me was not cooking any messaging clients and used kimi people messaging mod.
[Windows Mobile] madnish30:
Thank you for answering can you please pass me a link or attach the MOD, as on search there are a couple of versions and that confuses me further :confused:

Thanks for the help.

P.S: Then i suppose Arcsoft will be needed to get MMS working ?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Just follow the instruction here. And yes, you need Arcsoft MMS.
[Windows Mobile] madnish30:
No luck !

Cooked in Arcsoft + HTC message Package + Kimi Msg Mod.

On a new message clicking on the message gives me the message in Kimi's MOD ( that too partially mixed with HTC's ! - i haven't even cooked in messeging client ) on clcking on all messages it opens windows mobile style inbox but again cant click on any message and same for email ( but no email can be read or sent eithe from manila nor from inbox ) please help.
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Have you checked you Message Enhancement package? Anyway, there is a package that would cause the problem you describe but it is a very long time ago. The package is Outlook Enhancement. Remove that package if you have it.
[Windows Mobile] madnish30:
Oh yes i have outlook enhancement cooked ! i will try without it !

Sorry for being a PITA but HTC Message has to be cooked in right ?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Yes, you can cook that in.
[Windows Mobile] etoy:
lol,i'm one of those yada yada guys :) btw,can you please tell what are the values to edit when editing the photos size and the transition? i'd like to make them similar to the good ol' 2012 ones that are still the best size and have the nicest animation imho..

[Windows Mobile] Captain_Throwback:
Thanks for the tool. I just ended up CFCing my Manila anyway so i could try out the latest 2018 :rolleyes:.

Let me post screenshots of what I'm seeing. I think the reason you're not seeing it is because you're not previewing any 480 x 800 (WVGA) pictures in your Photos tab. Check out the difference in these two pictures.

The first one is with Landscape enabled, the 2nd is with it disabled. The 2nd makes more sense (to me) because it doesn't cover the heading, and you can actually see the stack of pictures. That's how I'd expect it should look by default. If you only happen to have 480 x 640 (VGA) pictures you're looking at in the tab, you might not really notice it, because they wouldn't be as tall & cover up the heading. So I guess my question is, what needs to be done to have it look like the 2nd picture when Landscape is enabled (keeping in mind I know NOTHING about editing manila files, and I have tried, albeit unsuccessfully).
[Windows Mobile] fjlour:
I have a ROM that has this version of sense. Is it normal that the tabs don't have background image?

In previous versions it used to have a soft glowing dark background on every tab. Now it has nothing, all black.

Is it possible for me to reverse this? Is there a file I can replace with a custom image?

Home Tab Background Issue

Hi, I'm using the Sense 2.5.2016 VGA port. I tried th set the home tab background (wallpaper) but nothing happens. Is that a bug or I missed something?
[Windows Mobile] sharkie405:
When you click on the wallpaper button does it pull up Album or WM Photo Viewer?
[Windows Mobile] dhncali420:
Re:Home Tab Background Issue

I had the same issue, I was missing Media_Tool_kit_1_2_20113122_0, cooked it in and that solved the Home Tab Wallpaper not changing problem for me

Edit: I was getting WM Photo Viewer, then added Media_Tool_kit_1_2_20113122_0 re-cooked and then I was getting Album and I was able to change home tab wallpaper

It could be an issue with your 26948339_manila file. Are you sure you have all the tabs you are trying to cook in included in your 26948339_manila file?
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
For Twitter tab, I think you are using a CFC version of that package but the Core is Non-CFC.

For Audio Booster, try using the one from Tachi.

As in the screenshots in post #2?

Settings Tab :Sound&Display PRB FIXED

Hi again,

After copying and overwritten "Settings Tab" files from "PACKAGE_LEO_S_Manila_Settings" from POST-1, the problem for WWE ROM is FIXED.

I compare all files between "Etoys Non-CFC" and this original package, could not see any difference :confused:. But after copying them, the problem is fixed.:)
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Hmm, I found 2330fc3c_manila in Core language package, not Weather.
[Windows Mobile] etoy:
here's the WVGA original manila 2.5.2016 packages,CFC and non-CFC. both are already localized and ready to be cooked :)

rev2:

-added 0409 weather database 2330fc3c_manila file to manila core package,it caused weather tab to restart sense.

rev3:

-updated Manila_Home lang files with missing IDS_DRAGREMOVED_TITLE (Drag and release quick link to remove) localization file.

-removed 2016 stock and twitter tabs from the full pack (available separately)

you can download the full pack,which includes the following tabs:

SENSE 2.5.2016 CFC rev3

SENSE 2.5.2016 NON-CFC rev3

(Stock and Twitter 2016 tabs are not ported to VGA by programatix).

i attached them separately so you can still download them if needed.

---

@VGA users:

use older 2011 Stock and Twitter ,they have VGA port.

icke kindly uploaded both CFC and non-CFC versions.

---

if you already have rev2,you can just download the updated Manila_Home_WVGA_rev3 package,attached below.
[Windows Mobile] cnzqy1:
It's 2.5.2016 right?(Not 2.6.2016)

I just uploaded an update to the People tab. It suppose to be in the release but for some unknown reason, I forgot to copy them into the release pack. Sorry for that.
[Windows Mobile] ceesheim:

[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Ok, I confirm the problem when there is no photo available.
[Windows Mobile] icke:
What issue is fixing with this update?...Couldn't see any probs in people tab.:o

BTW...my problems with twitter and audio booster wasn't caused on CFC'ed or NonCFC'ed packages...everything in twitter tab and musik tab works, like it should. I think, it's rather caused on SharedResource or HTCFont_Link...maybe I should try newly packages?:confused:
[Windows Mobile] hasseye:
hey etoy not sure if it makes a difference, but i beileve the sense you uploaded was from the test rom and not the shipped rom. Not sure if anything changed, but for safety issues anyway you can LOC the shipped sense ?
[Windows Mobile] etoy:
i can LOC them again,just didn't already do that because Captain Throwback said that they're exactly the same rom here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6943317&postcount=1758

looks like the files programatix ported were already from a shipped rom and not from a test one.

btw if you want me to LOC them again..no problems :)

--

edit: now i'm curious about that,will compare the two sense packs later :)
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
I'm pretty sure the Audio Booster issue is related to Audio Booster package. It is not ported correctly. Use the one from Tachi.

Regarding the icon in Twitter tab, I think it's Sense issue. The tab might be using some resource from Core. I tried cooking in Twitter from 2012 and I see that the icon is missing. Cooking in Twitter from 2016 and it is there again
[Windows Mobile] hasseye:
if its not to much of a hassle, maybe it would just be easier to remove all doubt and LOC them again?
[Windows Mobile] cnzqy1:
No need, 911SnIpEr(the source) also confirmed it. If you still doubt, do a binary comparison.
[Windows Mobile] mwalt2:

Album 3.2

@Programatix

I have always installed your Album 3.2 mod on 2012 with Captian Throwback's 'T-Back Facebook Online Album Fix.cab'

I see that 2016 does not have Album 3.2...and does not connect to Facebook online albums.

Will the two aforementioned mods work on the new 2016?

Thanks for your great port!!
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Sense 2.5.2016 has Facebook integration internally (all Sense 2.5 seems to include the code but is either turned on/off by using the registry). To have it work properly you also need other packages like Facebook Engine, Social Networks Engine, New Contact Card, Album 3.2 (with Facebook support, eg Huashan version does not support Facebook) and etc. For Album to download shared photos, you'll need to create a folder called "PINET_ROM" at the root of your device.

So far, I'm using the Facebook feature integrated in Sense and it works well without any problem. I do not take any screenshots of the People package features because of sensitive information it contains.

Curious...now I cooked in wvga package from 2012 and portet vga from 2012 and now twitter works like a charm. Icon is shown and settings fonts are correct.:confused:

But I have little trouble with email tab...letters in portrait are to small.
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Look like you have 2016 WVGA Email overwritten by 2012 VGA Email and then overwritten by 2016 VGA Email. I come to this conclusion because 2012 VGA has a resized (shorter) envelope image (one of the manila file) while in 2016, I do not resize the image, thus the manila file for it is not included and it supposed to use the original one.

Btw, please note that some files which are modified in 2012 are not modified by me as I sometimes make the same modification in different files. Thus, it is not advisable to mix 2012 port and 2016 port of the same package. Another effect that you might see is font too small or something similar to what you've reported.
[Windows Mobile] runkle6:
hi, what is the name of the taskbar icons?

[Windows Mobile] RyanMogul:
Great job on this port programatix!

I have a pretty darned smooth and occassionally stable 2016 ROM with all the goodies. I am using CHT 2.0 and had to figure a few things out but I am pretty sure I am close to perfection. I tried as much as I could to eliminate the restarts but now I think I need everyones help. If this helps I had 2012 working perfectly before this.

Every now and again Sense will just crash for no reason and restart itself and then be fine. This happens sometimes when first booting the phone, without even touching the screen once so I know its not something to do with htcscroll. I have included a list of my build below as a text document. I use old style kitchen but you guys can see the versions of packages etc.. If you know of this problem and which package you see that you think is to blame let me know. Thanks in advance everyone.

Edit: I have finally figured out the problem. Before I was using CHT 1.8.5 and did not have any problems so I invesitigated further. I failed to read the fine print on CHT 2.0.0 thread and it says there is a known problem with the tasks widget causing Sense to randomly crash only when there is no tasks in the tasks list. So if you disable the widget or add a dummy task you will not have any problem. Here is someone discussing the problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11973299&postcount=4107

So what I have to do now is either revert back to 1.8.5 CHT and have no problems, or tell all my users of my ROMs to watch out for the bug and that is an inconvenience. I know developing is exciting but I wish people would hold their horses when they announce something from Beta to *Final..

Great job again programatix, a little scared to try the 2018 yet or 2019 I think I am going to wait.

programmatix, thanks for the great port. A couple of issues that I have run into on ROM in my signature as seen in my screenshots. The send group message which will list the people in that group to check off and send to doesn't seem to list the people for me to select. Don't know if this is a ROM issue or a port issue, so figured I would post it here first and then quote this post in NRG's thread. The first screenshot shows the missing selection area, and the second screenshot shows that sense does see the number of people in the group.

[Windows Mobile] programatix:
It's Contact Picker. You need to use the older 19xx version.

I think I know why but I need to investigate first. Just for your information, when I was using the 2012 port, installing CHT 1.8.0 will move the photo up. CHT 1.8.5 solves this. When I am porting 2016, if I use the existing code for VGA (built-in), the image are moved up. So I used the WVGA code and modify it. So if it is now moved down, I think there is some incompatible issue. I'll check my port again and try the VGA code.

[Windows Mobile] programatix:
I think it will only work if your WM is WM6.1 and WM6.5 COM 2. Else, you'll need other 3rd party auto-rotate app.
[Windows Mobile] icke:
That is not correct...did same reg entries on my HD2 (SYS 23569) and it's working, but for some reason, after reset the phone, it takes a while till screen could be rotate...or you go to settings or open start menu and go back to home tab...then it works.
[Windows Mobile] programatix:
Please note that HD2 is always an exception because it has the latest driver. Even Volume Control works on HD2, but not on older devices. For auto rotate to work, older devices can use any version of Sensor SDK but must overwrite a file from their own Sensor SDK, thus the limitation to COM2 build.
[Windows Mobile] cnzqy1:

And about adding Home Tab quicklinks, I told you in another thread that you have to hex edit HomeService.dll, but I don't know how to. You may figure it out by yourself or ask Co0kieMonster.

EDIT: one more, look at the add quicklinks menu, and look at the bottom, you will a small blank area overlapping the menu, maybe the menu area should be larger?

EDIT2: The registry in Home VGA should be Home\9, Home\10, Home\11 instead of Home\10, Home\11, Home\12.(Because the number starts with 0) Or users can add anything to the tenth quicklink.

I spent too much time perfecting the drag-to-remove feature and I forgotten about the Remove Quck Links in the Menu. For now, just tap and hold on the shortcut until it got plucked out. Then drag it out of its socket and release to remove it.

Regarding Photos & Videos tab, I can resize it to any size and it seems like it wouldn't make everyone happy as previously everybody saying that it is too small... maybe I just make it configurable in the registry?

About the quick links font being too small... well, making it bigger won't fit it properly. I'll try playing around with the font size first to see the result. The other way around this is to reduce the number of quick links to 6. Let me see what I can do so that it can be configurable via registry. Maybe let you guys choose whether to have 6 or 12 quick links.
[Windows Mobile] cnzqy1:
And another thing about the can't delete issue, if there are quicklinks only in the last 3 quicklinks, the "Delete Quicklinks" in right soft key menu is disabled.
