Q; How to install themes (cab version)?

How we do it;

Cab file are installer programs. This works to make registry edits, install new applications and install new themes. Do NOT extract a .cab file!

- Download the cab file; copied it to your Storage Card (on the place you will).

- Navigate with your "File Explorer" (that came with your phone) to the place where you placed the cab file.

- Press on the cab file you will install it.

- Most of the time you will see a new window popup with the question where to install. (Advice all themes must be install on internal memory, not on SD)

- Follow the installation procedure, and follow it by a soft reset.

​

Q; Some Icons don't changes after restart?

If some Icons are still the same after Restart?

01. Prefer clearing HTC Sense's icon cache.

Go to your Device's \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher Folder and delete all the *.bmg files inside. These are icon caches that will be recreated upon next boot.

03. Delete All Old Icons from the Quick Links Menu in Manila.

04. Restart

If by clearing HTC Sense's icon cache, the Icons still doesn't change?

01. If you try to use a custom icon which have the same filename of one of the images found in \Windows then Manila will always load that original instead of your customized one!

In order to easily fix the problem, just rename your icon .png (Not that one in \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher).

02. Delete All Old Icons from the Quick Links Menu in Manila.

03. Restart

04. And change it again in Icon Changer (To the renamed .png file).

P.S.: This bug affects ONLY manila, therefore in the start menu everything will look fine BUT in the Home Screen you will always have the original icon!

05. Restart

If the Icon don't shows up in Icon Changer, so you cant change it from there?

01. Go to \Windows\Start Menu.

02. Duplicate (Copy & Paste) your .lnk (that don't shows up in IC).

03. Open again Icon Changer. The Icon now should be viewable.

04. Change the Icon.

05. Go again to \Windows\Start Menu.

06. Delete your Original .lnk and rename Your New .lnk to what you whant.

07. Restart
​

Q; How do I get more shortcuts on my home screen?

Important; there are different possibilities; but fore all of them counts one universal rule:

Read attentive the instructions/information on there threads, before installation, and follow the instructions!​

<<< 16 shortcut for Manila 2.5 >>> Link

<<< 25 shortcuts on Home and more >>> Link

<<< Max Manila 2.5 >>> Link

<<< Co0kie's Home Tab >>> Link

Personally I prefer CHT; But this is personal use/opinion; and I tray to be neutral. Each application is useful, and behind each of them are very good creators​

​
