did you install the exec rom on the regular atom?

I did, and it's really great. No issues with camera, WiFi, or lines on the screen, all is well. I "upgraded" from the latest O2 Atom wwe rom.

Um so what did you do to upgrade??? Was it the official atom exec rom from o2, and was it a matter of just using active sync to flash the ROM???
Nice work by the way, looks funky..
Matt

Where may i download this new rom guys?

woftam placed the link to thread hosting the d/l
you are looking for the Edited_Xda-Atom-ENG-20060614_R060428N_EX0018_for_Atom version i think... I have d/l the rom but waiting on a answer before i install.....
Hope this helps.. god know i need some!!!
Matt

I can't understand... how it can be better - if you replace extended rom (hidden partition) with old atom... you will have old aplication on your Atom... nothing new..

OK dude,
Maybe you should read this thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=52925&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=100"
Not that hard to understand i reckon
NICE WORK AGAIN LADS!!!!!!!!!!!

As above,
the Exe rom has "extra's" that standard atom rom doesn't.
Download Rom from here:
http://rapidshare.de/files/27952658/Edited_Xda-Atom-ENG-20060614_R060428N_EX0018_for_Atom.rar.html
Unpack the rar ,
connect PDA via USB/ActiveSync
run Device Software Update Utility.exe
dont touch till finished !!!
done !!!
soo easy...
and due to me requiring less additional programs, this does run faster !!

LOL,
to prove:
exe come with 192 ram ??
Above : rom says 192,
actual is less

this version also fixes the bug (camera, wifi..)?

Well after having the modified exec rom on my atom for a few days i have decided to resort back to the original atom firmware "4261".
To be honest i could not find anything valuable enough to keep it. The original rom gives you the choice to install O2 plus and phone plus and the headset patch through O2 connect.
The wireless manager looks pretty and the world times is boring, so back to the original firmware for me. There are still a few bugs with the exec rom so i wouldn't bother.. CAM works fine and wifi work fine no matter which rom i use. I did notice i couldn't use small icons on my today screen with the exec rom.. other than that, nice try....
Does anyone know where you can get some cool themes for the atom like woftam has used in this thread?
Thanks for the hard work guys but will wait for the next rom from O2...
Peace
Matt
P.S if you need to resort back to the original firmware, remove your sd card, connect device via activesync, hold the cam button and the soft reset button to force the device into BOOTLOADER mode. Next run the rom exe from your PC and you are away.....

Does anyone know where you can get some cool themes for the atom like woftam has used in this thread?

matt,
I designed those themes myself,

Is the Manila Interface posted here a joke or really works on some of your devices?

Hi everybody
looking around to find out what is the status of HTC concerning a probably new drivers release for the devices with Qualcomm 7200 chipset and i've found the file below, which should contain a new User Interface code name MANILA.
I'm sure most of you hear about it.
Well, i've been trying to install the file, but in some way i don't get it, even if I edit the cab and write a new setup.xml. May be because I have the Original O2 ROM on my Orbit 2, i'm not sure at all
Could some of you try if the install works on your cooked HTC Roms ??

wellthe m9 files in the HTC directory looks like xml + code (LUA perhaps?). In the manila\manila.xml file it has this line 'Mode9Path="HTC\home.m9?testParam=1" ' but there is no testParam in home.m9... could try removing that and trying again. Did you remove all today items before running this? I'm at work so just looking through the files, havent had a chance to test yet.

There's a cab here:

YMMV

exactly LUA language is inside, e.g.:
-- Adapted from class function at http://lua-users.org/wiki/SimpleLuaClasses
function __class_ctor(class_tbl, ...)
local obj = {};
setmetatable(obj, class_tbl);
if (class_tbl.__init) then
class_tbl.__init(obj, ...);
else
if class_tbl._base and class_tbl._base.__init then
class_tbl._base.__init(obj, ...);
end
end
return obj;
end
function class(base)
local c = {};
if type(base) == 'table' then
-- Shallow copy of base, including all functions and properties.
for i,v in pairs(base) do
c = v;
end
c._base = base;
end
c.__index = c;
local mt = {};
mt.__call = __class_ctor;
setmetatable(c, mt);
return c;

I was trying to remove some files too during the pause, but I'm in the office too.

it tells me that htc home has been closed unexpectedly

i think they are already dissecting and mutating the cab file (from the link above: htcinsider) to be used on our devices..

also, that's a cool name.. coz, i'm from MANILA.. hehehe..

When I first read the thread title.. I thought.. WTF?!
Oh.. so it's a new interface.. I thought it was something from here.
I live in Manila too.
Could somebody post some screenies? I'm getting really curious here.

Yeah.. I already saw them after I posted.. I just didn't bother editing them anymore.
Too bad it's slow and works only on VGA. I guess it's for those future "video-centric" HTC devices (that I'm not going to buy). Maybe Eten will make better devices by then.

4 those who cant get it off rapidshare
Non RapidShare Link

good but not usable (to slow)
it seems to be a good application but very very very very slow.
it a vga compatible with libGLES_CM.dll in manila directories

RBM44 /Battery Meter with Percent/Updated Again/

I found a really great battery meter in this ROM http://pdaviet.net/showthread.php?t=33272. I had been looking for something like this, but didn't find anything suitable. So, I ripped the battery meter and cooked into my own ROM. Here's a screenshot of it on my phone:

The OEM package is working on my Kaiser.
I also made an updated (for the second time) cab version.

I really like it. I'd rather have my clock instead but it DOES look great, very official looking! Could it be put in the task bar, maybe?

This little app looks great, but when I try to install the cab file, it erorrs that it is not signed with a trusted certificate. My phone is unlocked and the Cert check is disabled in the registry. Not sure why it won't install, never had any problems before.

Try installing "Magic Button", a task manager by transcreative. They have a battery meter that looks almost exactly the same

@ems: oh crap. i forgot about that... i'll fix it when i get a chance. i read somewhere about someone having the same problem. i'll just pull up the thread and repost the cab.
@sino8r: I have no idea. All I've done is rip this from a ROM.
@xd1936: I'm not talking about the bar on top (which is wktask), I'm talking about the one in the taskbar.

Thanks a Million, will give it a try.

Have you guys noticed any compatibility issues with Manilla2D?

Installing SDCerts.cab and the Soft Reset, still does not fix the problem. I still get the error when trying to install the program that it is not digitally signed with a certificate, blah...balh...blah....
I am running Manila2D, but I disabled it and still no luck.

well to be honest i have no idea whether or not a cab would work. If you'd like to try ROM cooking then that's another story. It is possible that the cab i made is bad. To see whether or not the cab installed properly check HKLM\Security\Resover\Bitmaps and report what you see.

Hi,it does'nt work because the cab is not signed .

I extracted that cab and it has only phcanoverbmp.dll. My cab has phcanoverbmp.dll in addition to another dll file.

Well I installed the cab and something changed because the battery icon isn't the one from my ROM anymore but it's also not the one you have either...it changed mine to just to the normal battery icon from WM 6.
Thanks for trying though, keep it up. You're doing better than me! lol

Nice battery gauge Looks very official indeed.
If you want some more colorful battery meter, and a one that doesn't waste precius top icon realestate, try this one:

There're indeed similarities. I installed few days ago this version (the one you're talking about). It is not only changing the battery icon, but also PIN dialer, icons in the call history...That's why I uninstalled it.
The version from this post applies the same changes (PIN dialer and so on) :-/. However, for some reason, the battery icon is OEM, not the one you show in your first post. i used the second cab you made.

Did anything become of this. It looks fairly professional..

[DEMO] 7 OpenGL ES demos for Diamond

Simply unzip the content to any folder, but the /resources folder and underneath files must be copied to root.
Instructions
After startup, click the top right corner cross or press the DPAD to quit.
Some demos will have different effect when tap the screen, just try it.
Enjoy!

Will try it out immediately!
As you can see in my sign I'm currently using Panosha ShineOn 1.6 ROM on my Diamond. I don't know if he changed any drivers or so in his ROM, but I can only initiate tutorial 1 + 2.
EDIT: ok, yeah... misread the instructions. Had to put it on the root on the storage card, not the internal memory.

Only 1 and 2 work.
Some do Nothing at all
Some give openGL ES init error.

all seven worked out fine for me
i got stock 1.93 ROM

Just 1 & 2 For me, Stock 1.93 ROM

@ALL
If you can only run 1 & 2, make sure you have copied the folder \resources including the underneath files to root.

Amazing work.. Looks great. The resource should be on the root of the device and not the storage card.

Really nice, great work

Interesting,
on the last test (7) (as pictured in your first post) I get a FPS rating of 74/75

Windows Mobile does not seem to have a concept of "current working directory" when launching an application. It's pretty annoying.
I work around this using the following:
public static string CurrentWorkingDirectory
{
get
{
return Path.DirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembliy().GetName().CodeBase);
}
}
Then use that directory to build relative directories...

Only getting a xray mark of a finger
Hello i have installed the application
And indeed you do not need the VB.
Only when i started it crashed the first time. I have re
ïnstalled it and it was solved.
Only i'm getting a glimp of my fingers that's it.
When I press enter nothing happends and the hardware key performs to increase/decrease the sound so this is impossible that it works somewhere else.
Or it should have been tweaked with the softkeys.

Glad to see a portuguese around here!! Cool app!
Cheers!
