i just test Manila 2D (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173&page=110)
it doesn´t work on my Blueangel (latest xplode beta rom)
does any version work for you ?
if yes, please post manila 2d version and rom version
it is not working on devices that do not support touchflo, currently BA and himalaya and i think prophet, all other have ported touch.dll (touchscreen driver) which is compatible with touchflo
Thats why it does not work on non htc devices either

do you think that it might be possible to make Manila2D point towards Ftouchflo instead of the actual touch.dll?

check the recent posts, manila now works
so far slows booting (around 5 minutes) after complete startup it is fast and stable, also i will publish my edition of cabs because in herg's thread there are too many crapware which is not needed for manila
Do you have a link for this?

Works much faster if you load the 2d manila cab first then patch followed by the other programs than the sequence described in the installation read me.

Using your 'patched' Taskmanager, Album and Audio with herg's #15 + #16 +#1(common dlls) works fine for me on Blueangel and my Atom, Saved 13MB of space!!!
Thanx for optimising it so much.
well thanks, this is the way it should be
I think xplode is right here, I also would like to say the same.

I'm using your cabs on Helmi's WM6 with Evil3000's German Language Patch applied and couldn't notice any significant speed hits on my BA. Boot-up is slowed down by no more than ten seconds. Excellent work, xplode, thank you very much for your excellent work.
well my first test cabs slowed down the device, but after this post i made a huge progress

Actually, it doesn't hang the device, it just makes it ungodly slow. It actually takes close to 1 hour for the device to get past bootloader (yes, I waited that long )
But after that, it just gets stuck in the "Tap Here to Start TF3D" and "Launching TF3D"
It looks like M2D all over again, which tells me that there might be a similar set of issues with this port as there were with M2D. In other words, the reason for this thing not starting up is probably the same as for M2D... just a thought though

Doh, I just tried to install m2d from the main development thread (v20). Took a while to install and when I did a reset it just stayed at the 4 color bars screen. I assumed it was dead and did a hard-reset. Didn't think to let it sit that way for an hour! lol
Going to try and install this xPlode version now.
I'm a little confused as to the versions though. Are we only supposed to install the xPlode version, or will we be able to install updates from the main m2d dev thread?

That's because that version is not yet ready for non-htc or older devices like blueangel. Hopefully they will get that to work. But i prefer xplodes version for our kind of device cause that's the perfect installation made yet for all devices.

I couldnt instal the touchflo cube... I did everithing right, but i couldnt. What could I doing wrong?/???????? My Rom is BlueAngel WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2) - HELMI_BA_WM6_R0 and I tried to install this application: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333513 .
The topic i was pinned to is for touchflo - finger scrolling- not for touch cube.
Is this stable for O2IIs? I heard it's not stable and seems BA users didn't like it very much.
Anyway, I am trying it now.

Are you sure?
I've installed the "TouchFlo - ALPHA 4" cab file, and after doing a soft reset, and starting (I think it was FTouchFlo) I do see the little S and / or L, but thats about it. (I did read all 50 pages)
Am I missing something? All I installed was the FTouchFlo_a4.CAB file.
I got the file from the 1st post @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334965

all u here installing TOUCH use SPB PLUS 4 it has inbuilt smooth scrolling for conatacts , messages, MS IE etc. and the most advantage is that "NO BUGS".

SPB 4 only supports a limited group of apps while Ftouchflo is not limited. I have been using the new version 1.3 for 3 days and it is working perfectly with no slowdowns at all. So far, I'm very happy with it.

Hi, been home from work on a sick leave all day, and being bored to death started looking at the possibilites of perhaps making Manila2D available on the X1 (Portrait-mode only though)!
Instructions goes like this.
1. First, install the latest version of Manila2D. It can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
Follow the instructions found on that page.
2. Next, install the VGA-update made by pijulius, everything explained here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429224
(the file you're looking for is the last link in the first post).
3. Go to Settings -> Today and uncheck the TouchFlo-plugin.
4. After you have done that, download my file, extract HTCHomeSettings.xml and move it to the Windows-folder of your device.
Go back to the settings for Today and check the box for TouchFlo. Voilá, working.
If your ROM is not WWE, but perhaps Swedish or something, you can follow the instructions in the last answer of this post, this will fix alot of problems you might otherwise encounter:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2691419&postcount=2741
Thank's to: Herg62123/others for Manila2D, pijulius for the VGA-version, darth maximus for his QWVGA-version that taught me alot, and ababrekar for the HTCHomeSettings XML-tutorial.
Will continue to work on this to see if I perhaps can improve it somehow
Screenshots:
Oh, the background image is taken from a QVGA-Manila2D-theme and resized to WVGA-size, renamed hh_fw_background.png and put in the windows\manilagfx-folder.
Bet it looks awesome on that screen.
Good job!
Great!
I really want my X1 - NOW!
Oh my!!! That is nice.
Can you make Manila2D work on one of the panels? Or does it remove panels?
I suppose the next step would be to get the new version of Manila from the Touch HD.
Hehe I'm unfortunately not that good This is a today-plugin for the Microsoft Today-screen, which is one of the panels!
Yeah, hopefully we'll get a version that's made for WVGA from the Touch HD when it's released!

Which prototype do you have and how well does it perform .. panels and touchflo interface?
Would be good knowing on what the final device will be capable of.
Sorry I havent answered..been too busy trying to figure out this xml-thing! I have a 256 MB RAM-prototype..obviously I love it, wonderful phone! Even better now with the Manila2D up and running!

How's it handling the panels and overall performance with the 256 mb?
Any bugs you've noticed? How's the keyboard?
Did you add this as a new panel along side the other panels or you completely remove xperia panels?
and could you try TFL3D next time wonder how the speed is going to be with the 380mb ram version

Even with 256MB and the latest ROM X1 is fast enough. The keyboard is OK, I can make comparison only with E90 and TyTN, but I think that X1's is better.

This isn´t a new panel or something, its a today-plugin that runs on the "standard" today-screen, which also happens to be one of the panels!
Unfortunately there isn´t any good versions of TouchFlo 3D out yet!
Any idea if it will work on other WVGA devices, especially Toshiba G900? As far as I know G900 has only 128 mb ram so that may be a problem.
Doesn't work on my G900, cycles message "Tap here to launch Touch 2D... Launching Touch 2d... Tap here to launch Touch 2D"

i tried many " cab " , but all of them had some problems

I tried a couple of .cab installs of TF3D but had similar frustrating problems. So I bit the bullet and installed Jack's v1.06 ROM [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445818 ] and it's incredible. Very fast, stable and looks great.
I think it's the only way to get this properly working on the X1 for now.

Hello,
I need help here .. I'm new in this forum.
So I couldn't decide which one is better TF3DHDB2 or Manila ?
There is lot about it here, I read most of it .. and now I'm confused.
should I install TF3DHDB2.cab ? or Touch-IT_Blackstone_Manila_HD_FULL ? to get the most performance and functionality.
and is there a Beta 3 or final version of TF3DHD ?
Thanks
I think, it`s both the same.

No, they are not. Darran did some change and some functions (e.g. AVRCP) could work
So which one ?
dunno, just extracting the German version from an HD build and see how well it worx on my x1
with Manilla i allways had problems with this darn Album. lagging like hell and keep freezing my phone.
Stick with itje's Touch-IT version. I had both versions and Daran's was slow and buggy. (sorry Daran)
I found itje's a bit buggy too (sorry itje ).
Eventually I came to the conclusion that TF3D probably isn't going to run perfectly on an Xperia whatever these guys do with it (geniuses though they may be).
I hope one day they will prove me wrong - and no doubt others will claim that I'm already wrong...
Just to let you know...I was almost giving up using TF3D on the xperia until I found a great fix. It's floating round on these forums, but it consists of disabling TF3D from the Today screen, creating a panel, and then loading TF3D in the panel.
I don't know if this is old news, but I applied the fix and NOT ONE SINGLE CRASH in three weeks...which is fantastic compared to the original Touch-it TF3D crashing twice per day. I'm not sure if it applies to all TF3D versions, but I ran the fix on the latest 3.01 Touch-it ROM.

I agree cos I stopped using TF3D after a while and I no longer want to use that in my Xperia as I rather use softwares like SPB Pocket Plus with Inesoft Software.

mp3trimmer already comes WITH itje's rom. no need to install it again. which "social network engine" are you talking about?
you'll find all programs if you click "start" (upper left) and then "all programs" (lower left).
I used this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442154 to get the cabs and installed them. Cant find the option to trim MP3s at all. and i downloaded the Touch-It Blackstone Social Network engine. Any ideas?
Im hoping that by downloading the engine that the social networking sites would pop up under the internet tab where youtube is...you know where i mean?
oh, my mistake. you installed the cab and not his rom with manila cooked in...
okay, i'm sorry, but i never used stock rom with manila-cab. but i can tell you this:
- manila works best if cooked in, use a custom rom (i.e. itje's touch-it v.10. but there are many good roms, have a look in the rom-developing-part)
- the cab you used is from november 2008, there's a newer version out now
- "social engine": never saw it in the internet tab, it connects your contacts with a corresponding facebook-friend.
so, bottom line:
programs should show where i told you above, even in the cab i think. and: manila as a cab is slow, cooked-in it flies these days.

typing this from my mobile, so to keep it short:
- you need to apply "hard-spl" first to flash a custom rom (it's a sticky)
- if you're flashing itje's v.10.2, be aware that there is a bug for some people with sending sms. i NEVER had it though. also you'll need to apply 2 or 3 fixes.
- READ READ READ!
if you're going to flash ANY custom rom you'll have to learn a lot. "just install and everything's perfect" won't work. and everytime you flash a new rom you'll loose all data on your phone, so make backup first!!!
if you're willing to get into this - do it. it's worth it and it will really improve your x1. if you want to have everything working out of the box with many restrictions - apple makes such a device...
Ill let you know how i get on, im just loading 10.2 now so we shall see

hope you did a backup of your data - if not, don't come yelling if it's all gone...
edit: the fixes needed
since the thread on v10 is pretty much to read (it started as v7...), for starters the 3 fixes needed with this version.
- Advanced Network (found in itje's first post, under the dl-link for the rom itself)
- "v10.2_corrected_highlights.zip" (also posted by itje, somewhere in the thread, search for it)
extract the files in these two zips to your \windows-directory (on your x1) with total commander (comes with the rom)
- v10.2_smaberg_1_percent_battery.cab (install normally. this fixes a bug that the battery-meter always shows 100% full. alternatively you could install another icon-set from this forum. watch out if they're for WinMob 6.1 or 6.5 though!)
the cooked-in build of opera mobile 9.5 doesn't work with the hardware-keyboard of xperia. either install build 16194 (iit's from an official x1-rom) or try opera mobile 9.7 beta.
every other question you should ask in the thread of the rom you've chosen.
this should set you up, from here on it's all tweaking, lots of reading, learning and adding apps to your likeness.
i have a problem like this one: i installed the touch it manila cab and then i installed the touch it htc album but... i cannot find the program... what do i have to do?
EDIT: ok i found two exe files in the windows folder wich are : HTCAlbum.exe and AlbumSearch.exe, and when i run each of them i have HTC Album... btw the problem is that i have no text in the menus... what may be the problem?
Thanks for all the advice guys...im installed and up and running and so far so good, no issues at all, the sms seems to be working fine etc.
Ill apply the fixes as noted so far as and when i come across the issues!
Cheers again all
