syrius Goodies! (edit: Touchflo2D related) - Touch Cruise ROM Development

//edit: I edited the Topic name so that all people using TouchFlo2D rather than only people using udKsyrius come and check this out. Most of the skins that are released/going to be released are actually more TF2D related than syrius.//
First off, I want to thank udK for the great rom. It has its flaws but Im sure you will fix this. Anyway, I wanted to contribute to this beautiful design so I made an image and an animation for the boot sequence that match the syrius look, the last "WM61" image is vista inspired. Hopefully udK will use the "udKsyrius.bmp" in ROMUpdateUtility in his future syrius roms, no offence. The .zip is attached at the bottom of this post.
Note: The preview is here to give an idea of the sequence and is not like the real thing which is a bit faster and better.

I do not take responsibility for anything that might go wrong during the following steps. I had no problems trying this out and neither should you.
1. Extract the all files.
2. Connect your Polaris to the PC.
3. copy files "WM61.png" and "syrAnimated.gif" to "\windows\" directory
4. Use a registry editor (like PHM registry editor) and modify the following keys:
(a) "\HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation\StartupGif\" to "\Windows\syrAnimated.gif"
(b) "\HKLM\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\GIFFile\" to "\Windows\syrAnimated.gif"
(not sure what the difference between (a) and (b) is but when I only changed one of them, can't remember which one, the animation was not updated)
(c) "\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\MSBitmap\ to "\Windows\WM61.png"
(d) "\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen\CarrierBitmap\ keep? "\Windows\welcomehead96.png"
(not sure what this last one (d) does, doesnt seem to do anything in the syrius r0 rls. I did not change this key)
5. Last but not least you open the "ROMUpdateUtility" folder and flash your Polaris with the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe".
(note: even though this is a very simple step you should not do it if you are not familiar with flashing ROMs.)

Also, I have an iContact and a S2U2 design in the same look as Touchflo2D and then an, in my opinion, visual improvement to the TF2D digital clock. All this will be given to you in the next couple of days. Dont hesitate to suggest other apps where the TF2D look can be applied. If this is a program that is popular or I could find usefull then I would be happy to make a skin.

Touchflo2D digital clock improved looks with whiter digits.
(note: zip is attached to first post)
Default (L) vs ice-digits (R)
In the default version of the digital clock all the images are transparent but in the ice-digits the numbers and the colon is non-transparent making them whiter. Since I dont use the AM/PM image I left it as it is, also it can be a nice look to have it a bit transparent while the numbers are white. I used the same font so there should be no other difference in looks other than the ice-digits being whiter and because its in a zip file you can combine it to your own liking having the colon transparent if you want.

I do not take responsibility for anything that might go wrong during the following steps. I had no problems trying this out and neither should you.
1. Extract the files.
2. Connect your Polaris to the PC.
3. Copy file "hh_hm_colon.png" and files "hh_hm_digit_X.png" (note X=every number) from "ice-digits" to "\windows\"
(If you want to go back to the default look do step 2. and 3. but use the files from the default folder)

Nice good work

Nice initiative!
I am trying to get t9 in other languages with a cab specifically for syrius. My first goal is Dutch, but other languages should be easy once I got one working. But I have some difficulties, for instance the shareware version of wince cab manager doesn't support importing of reg files. Are there programs better capable of handling cab files? I don't find it worth 100 bucks...
The cab I'm working on is based on the Modaco multilanguage pack. It got all the kdb files needed, I just need to get the registry changed correctly...

Ok man, but I dont know very much about that kind of stuff. I have designs and skinning as a hobby and in that field ask me anything, but other than that I dont know very much. Al I can say about your issue is that I tried a swedish t9 and now none of the t9s work but I dont think that is any help at all...

Update!
Touchflo2D digital clock and iContact skin uploaded, watch first post!

I got different languages working on different roms other than syrius, but the strange thing is that because of the differences between the roms there isn't a global solution. First I have to get it to work with syrius and then I'm going to make cabs for different versions.
It's going to take some time, I have to do it in my spare time

A total of 142 downloads but only a few comments...
I guess this is going to sound kind of pathetic but I want som friggin feedback... I dont see the point of releasing anymore of these skins if theres barely any reaction to it.
Peace!

Here it is - my critical comment. )
I`d downloaded and installed theme for iContact and dicovered a problem on Sirius R0 - that bottom butts are not skinned, they are workin fine but with incorrect images above.
(when i`ll know how to attach pictures i would place the screnncapture with the bug)

Liquidice, what verision of iContact do you use? Coz your skin doesn't work with iContact Burt Edition.
Nice skinz, thank you! Waiting for further customization.

Thx, mate.
Im using "iContact v0.8 - supware.net" and as far as I know this is the only version Its been tried on.
(added to first post)
btw. Whats different in Burts edition, is it better than v0.8?
Should I maybe do a skin for that one?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402724&highlight=burt
It has much more functions. It would be nice, if you'll create a skin for it.
And what about skinning in Mannilla2d style G-alarm (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?)t=422362&highlight=g-alarm?

liquidice, your clock fix was well received! thank you!
i use itje's touch-it 3.5 rom, and installed icontact 0.8 and applied your skin and clock fix and all work fabulously! kudos!

[SKN] Complete "IPhone like" Icon and Sys dll Set by fRED (~75 Icons)

Hello again,
I've got a lot requests about the Icons I use on my System because of my "Real VGA WMP Manila Skin" Thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3044289&postcount=25
So, I've modded nearly my complete System with custom made icons. I used ResHacked and siggner to apply the icons to the exe's and System Files. You can search the forum if you don't know how to do that.
I searched for a cooker who wants to work with me to bring out a ROM with a complete redone Iconset, but it looks like no ones want to do this with me.
So I decided to release my Icon "Standalone".
Since I don't know if it would be OK (because of Copyrights or things like that) to post here the complete modded Programs with the costom exes you have to integrate the icons by yourself.
If you would like an Icon for a special Program just post it here and I try to do one for you.
Thats enough for now...
Have fun... fRED
Here again some Screens
Some more...
Can you make these icons for the settings too , very nice!
Funny that you're asking. I just do these types of icons for Setting, so yes, I can do *g*
But you have to be patient for some days.
fRED
I think this is really amazing, do you have some installation instructions for the not so clever like myself to install?
Also, do you have or could you make icons for TomTom for MSN Messenger... Please?
This is fantastic! Keep up the good work!
Sean
I've made your requested icon for MSN/TomTom + Mobiler, because I use mobiler quite often now *g*
Update in first Post
fRED
Wow just beautiful! i really like these icons...
Thanks a lot!
How to install? Just copy to /windows?
No, it's not that easy! Look at my first post. You have to use ResHacker to apply the icons to each .exe.
I don't want to post the exe's directly cause there could be copyright problems. Also there would be problems with different languages and Version Numbers of the files/exes.
The dll's which are integrated in the pack are also German one's. If you want to apply them to an english version just extract the modded icons.
At the moment I don't want to explain how you use ResHacker to exchange icons. It's not that difficult. Just Google or search here in the forum.
Maybe anyone other wants to explain it here, than I add it to the first post.
regards,
fRED
ok thanks man i will try it
is it possible to use on Touch HD?
Of course, you have to replace the icons directly in the exes. So this works everywhere.
fRED
Thank you so much for doing that for me, your a credit to the forum matey. Keep up the good work, ill be keepin an eye on your future projects and this one, dont stop, create!
Sean Saunders
I really love those Icons.
Could you release them in .png format so they would be compatible with D-Mans Idiamond programme launcher?
Hi !
Nice work, but can you make a .cab for lazzy guys like me ?
Would be great !
Thanks
Great work, really great work at all! I'll use these icons in my own ROM now!
really great work!! thanks for the fantastic icons!
but there are just two things:
1) could you make the corners a little bit more round? they look a bit squared actually.
2) could you provide png files instead of ico, please?
Hi BlockbusterF!
First of all, I like your Iphone icons! I tried to cook a rom, and replace the original icons by your iphone style icons. If you interested in a ROM with your icons, we should make a cooperation. I make the rom, and you make the icons that we need for a fully iphone icon style rom.
I will use the new HTC 2.00 base rom for basic. First I need learn to cook a rom (now it's on ). I will get off some HTC application and put my own (maybe make some registry tweak too), and then make the iphone style.
If you interested in the idea, contact me!
PLEase say yes.....

i guess its my dream come true. i have been looking for such a ROM since the time iphone came in existance. it will be like best of both worlds.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374571may be here you can get some idea, ( but for diamond i would really vouch for iDiamond project of Dman666, as it involves the manila files direstly.
Blockbuster, great work! I've actually gone through all the work to import them into my files and they look amazing. It's quite a lengthy process, took me nearly 2 hours to get 'em all done. On top of that I was having some difficulties with a few icons (namely the RSS Hub icon and tasks) but I've got it worked out.
I thought I'd make a contribution to the project, I've made an icon for the app Diamond SensorScroll in the style of yours. See attached zip.

I noticed someone has posted a supposed Touch Pro 2 Calculator .cab:
http://mylostblog.altervista.org/software/freeware/per-htc/htc-freeware-htc-calculator-esclusiva. It looks great other than it is a huge install and it only works on WVGA. Looking at the cab file, there appears to be an XML file which skins the app. I'm throwing down the gauntlet to see who can first adjust all the layout so it fits on a VGA screen.
Also, I notice some images are .bmp and some are .png, so for extra credit see if you can convert all of them to .png and maybe save some space. I'm gonna look into this myself, but I know someone else can beat me to completing this.
P.S. - Not sure if you'll have to resize the button graphics to fit, or if the w/h parameters in the layout xml will do that for you on load.

I've done it (before reading this thread). But I don't know how to create cabs.
I resized the buttons (both portrait and landscape) and updated the coordinates and dimensions in the file "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml" (installed in the \Windows folder).
And also, I don't like all these small bmp files in my windows folder, so I moved the whole bunch to "\storage card\program files\htccalc"
I attach the buttons in a zip file, and the converted xml (also zipped).
This is not much use for most of you, but could be a good base for a VGA version.
"Installation":
1. install the original mylostblog version
2. delete the calc_*.bmp files from your windows folder
3. create the folder "htccalc" under "program files" in your storage card
4. unzip "buttons.zip" into the "htccalc" folder
5. replace "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml" in "\Windows" with the attached "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml"
To get to the scientific version slide out the keyboard or use a screen rotation utility.

[OEM] Custom Touch Pro 2 Manila
Got the dependencies working on the Touch Pro 2 files from the dumpity-dump, here's the Manila:
http://www.4shared.com/file/88620823/b845055a/PACKAGE_CustomRhodium_Manila.html
Same launch as the others-- open SIP keyboard while launching. The sure fire way is on Today->Items, open SIP keyboard before checking TF3D. Let's see if others can modify it faster than xboxmod (I'm busy with my ROM this will take take to resize)
EDIT: this is an OEM, not a cab, if you don't know what to do with it, then...
EDIT 2: this has not been resized, it's in CFC form, this came from the Dutty dump coming from SatScan.
Welcome to the EzInput 2.0 Keyboard Suite project.
Ok, the time has come.
HTC has rushed to prepare a pre-release of its EzInput 2.0 technology just in time for the MWC in Barcelona, and we have it here ready for our tweaks, hacks and workarounds.
These are the new layouts - only Phone Keypad and Full Qwerty, this time.
The first two Beta cabs are ready for download, but beware, this is just for experienced users only.
As you'll see, the known issues are a bit annoying, especially if compared to what we're accustomed to with the 1.5 release.
But that said, the huge use of .xml configuration files will probably mean a quite easily customizable experience for all the known form factors.
Sadly, it seems that although the .xml configuration files might be ok, the keyboard in its current form presents too many bugs to be acceptable for a day-to-day use.
Feel free to make your tests and prepare your cabs and packages. A better release will arrive as soon as the first Rhodium and Topaz phones will be ready for prime time...
Downloads
WVGA
NoKbd - Phones without keyboard
FullKbd - Phones with full hardware keyboard
Known Issues
Availability of Keypad Layout.
The Keypad layout is available and working, but not selectable using the settings or the old Input Panel.
To select it, you have to use the new SipMenu, included in cab B1.1 and above.
Only the newer phones from HTC can use the SipMenu (Elfin, Diamond, Raphael, Opal, Jade, Blackstone, Iolite).
The layout can be forced - in Portrait mode - using the registry.
Languages Availability and Selection.
Not all languages are available on the pre-release rom.
The Beta1 cab includes English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.
There's no way to select them using the standard Input Panel.
To select it, you have to use the new SipMenu, included in cab B1.1 and above.
Only the newer phones from HTC can use the SipMenu (Elfin, Diamond, Raphael, Opal, Jade, Blackstone, Iolite).
The old Language Packs made for V1.5 are *NOT* compatible with V2.0.
It seems that the main language can be forced through a registry setting, but it has not yet been verified.
Landscape mode keys don't work as expected.
In Landscape mode, a few keys don't seem to work at all.
The .xml layout definition files seem to be ok, so this might be a bug in the code.
Changelog
25-Feb-09: Beta1.3
Solved the space issue.
Removed an extra Tegic setting (coming from V1.5 customizations) that was causing it.
23-Feb-09: Beta1.2

[APP]UPDATED VERSION HTC Album Version 3.0.1911.1826 from TP2 (MADE VGA)
In other news here is the HTC ALBUM Version 2.5.1820.4127 and 3.0.1911.1826. the only thing i see different is 2.5 version does have Album Social Networking and it works with FOOTPRINTS. 3.0 is truely from TP2 and doesn't support footprints. other than that it moves quicker than other albums. this is all i can see that is different. (THANKS TO CONFLIPPER FOR THE CORRECTIONS)
to use it with FOOTPRINTS with version 2.5 you must have it installed already. When you click on a picture that has gps lat and long cordinates in it select menu and scroll down. under save to contacts you will see 2 blanked out lines. the one under save contacts opens google maps while the one under that one opens up footprints.
Version 2.5.1820.4127 that works with footprints, you can download from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ynjlvtjawvc
Version 3.0.1911.1826 that doesn't work with footprints and is from TP2, you can download from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ktjiyjzzytn
see pictures below from version 2.5 that works with footprints
UPDATE 2/26/2009: version 3 has some pics still need to be resized in should be posted soon as i am working on it as we speak.

I guess there has been a bit of misunderstanding... The merge idea is great, but we should make it gradually...
Let's wait for Ameet to be back logged in...
Having all the links in one place is good idea but deleting the original threads is bad. Now it's not possible to share information, experiences and etc in an easy manner.

Yes, a better idea would be to use a main thread to post the download links, and separate threads for the ongoing discussions... trying to follow posts regarding each package would be overwhelming, in a single merged thread...

Hello,
The merging of ezinput to oem's was not the good ides
Anyway; Today I have again started the conversion of wvga ezinput 2.0 to qvga so I have successfully completed 30% of work but still there is lot to do. Here is the screenshot.
Thanks and regards
Sincerly sorry guys. I guess I misunderstood the whole idea of merging requests
I'll start the restoration as soon as I reach home. Regret the inconvenience once again

[ITA] Custom Titanium Panels Translation

07/08 - PLEASE INSTALL ONLY MORTSCRIPT VERSION 4.2 (LATEST OFFICIAL), LATEST BETAS ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY THE PANELS!!
And here we go, time for a big change! As usual you need to:
Disable Titanium (in Settings - Today);
Install original english panels (you can find links a couple of posts under);
I advise a soft reset;
I also advise to check with taskmanager for running mortscripts (kill everyone!);
Install the cabs for the panels you want to translate;
Soft reset again;
Turn on Titanium;
Play with it as long as you want;
Please, give me some feedback!!
I finally got to create single cabs, each one for the respective plugin (every zip contains the needed cabs). Actually, you may have up to 2 cabs for every plugin, that is because some panels need only regedits, other only modded mortscripts and other both of them. You can see which original-english-panel-versions I used as a base a couple of post under. Titanium Weather modifications is here, while SegoeUI font for Titanium is here.
Ok, less talk and more cabs!
(reVersed)
FIRST POST - OLD STUFF!! - GOOD ONLY FOR ORIGINAL ENGLISH PANELS LINKS!
Hi! I'd like this thread to be some kind of "repository" for translated/modded panels to use in Italian-localized WM6.5 ROMs.
In the zip you can file localized/modded versions of:
Favorite People Plug-in (based on 0.98 - thanks to AppStar)
Titanium CommManager (based on 0.32 - thanks to chriscsh)
Opera Panel 9.7 mod (can't remember where I took that, sorry! If you're reading, tell me and I'll update! - Original panel by showaco)
Titanium Weather (based on 4.2 - thanks to Showaco)
Titanium Quick Launcher (based on last version - thanks to gullum)
Titanium Plugin CVolume (based on last version - thanks to duhhh)
Titanium Notifications (based on 1.3 - thanks to larbke666)
CLauncher (based on 0.21 - thanks to chriscsh)
TWolf Multi-plugin (based on 1.6betaC - thanks to TWolf)
CDigiClock (based on v0.46 - thanks to chriscsh)
Great job
--DELETED--
Finally, separate cabs for regentries and modded mortscripts to install over original panels... have fun and report!
provato ad istallare il weather su mako 1.36.....non funziona oppure ho sbagliato qualcosa, ma sono ricirso all' hard reset per cancellare il casino fatto
google traslate:
tried to install... the weather on mako 1.36 not working or I something wrong, but are ricirso to the hard reset to clear the made casino
Strange, Titanium Weather wasn't finished yed, but I did have it working properly... Anyway, wait for the release of JMLToday in italian language, it's based on an italian weather database so it should be completely translated into italian. Have a look HERE or HERE. I'm using the Skin JMLToday_First.plg and I'm very happy with that.
Does the JMLToday 5.3 working good in italian language?

Yes it does! And I did the translation, so trust me!
*g* Sure - but as I tested it, I saw nowhere "Pizza" - so I was unsure *g*
I hope we will get some sunny Skins from Italia
Have you tried the PLG-Converter for your resolutions? Would be good to adapt all translated panels to integrate it.
Maybe in next versions I can place some "pizza, spaghetti e mamma" here and there...
However, what is the PLG converter you talk about? Is it the windows program to convert cpr's/plg's to other resolutions? If so, I wouldn't know the use...
On the other hand, if you're talking about the short panel "setup" which is found in some panels (the one asking for the screen resolution), I'd be glad to integrate it anywhere but have got no clue. I'm mostly a translator, I'd like to have the time to investigate WM and produce graphics (like skins) but I don't... By the way, I could really use a hand at building cabs of these translated panels, now the install procedure is a little tricky as it requires to install original english panel first, italian regentries after that and finally the cab with italian translations of the mortscripts... I'd really like to have one single italian panel cab!
Moreover, let me point out one thing I got to try on my skin recently: most (all?) of the panels involving mortscripts, DO require a specific version of Mort's MortScript to run. For example, your JMLToday, CComm and CNitrogen (3 I can remember right now) work properly ONLY with version 4.2 (and not with the latest betas); and I fear that a lot of issues I had with other programs like Suiller's sUC (which is also based on mortscripts) happened for that reason. So, this should be made very clear in the requirements, but quite noone does that: if you think about it, it was me to point that out in your JMLToday skin thread after a short talk with the panel author. But I bet the others don't know about that! Ok well, let me know some of the answers to my questions... thanks for your interest!
OK - Spaghetti next time
To PLG-Resizer ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4254497 ) Post #2 :
With this Program you can adapt each JMLToday-Skinto each resolution (WVGA,QVGA, VGA, WQVGA - portrait and landscape)
And: If there's a PlugIn which doesn't support it - you can use it to - for all resolutions (the most plugins use only "default.plg") (or does all Plugins support VGA? )
To Mortscript 4.2: It's the last stable Version - and so every serious developer would develop with this Version - not with a Beta, which is not forward-compatible. But you can addthe MortScript Execute to the Working directory of each Plugin - with the different versions - so it should work, too.
To make a cab is hard - I know. Especially for Titanium. Therefore I made a Framework, which does that for the Skinners almost automatically: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4198295&postcount=7
Have a look inside, how it works.
You only need one step more - and all that you can find here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509492
Take the new .dll and add it to the .inf-File like he description and put the 3 needed files in the lugins Main Directory. Than you can make italian cabs.
Youmust learn, how it works - but I neveround any example for all of this and had to search in different sources, to get the framework. Look inside the Framework (especial "AllImages") - and you will see, how it works.
If you have problems - you can upload the Framework of the italian Plugin, you want to cab,and send the Link to me by PN, then I can have a look. ok?
Is there an account used that is expired?
Hi,
always get a red cross instead of weather data.
I used EUR|DE|GM011|DUSSELDORF as location code which was working in another image with built in Titanium Weather a few weeks ago.
Now I use another image and dont get Titanium Weather working

MANILA 2D "How-Too-From-Scrach" tutorial request... and a bloody LIVERPOOL theme!

MANILA 2D "How-Too-From-Scrach" tutorial request... and a bloody LIVERPOOL theme!
Greetings, lads.
This is probably, possibly, definitely the best forum for mobile apps/hack etc!
I own an OMNIA since one month (I DIDN'T checked out to see... OMNIA II is on the way - and it's a bloody awesome phone, the best!), I'm "playing" a lot, I'm "wearing" a "Sector Zeus" Rom (Sector is the very best "cooker" to me) and I've changed almost EVERY POSSIBLE UI there is in the planet, to find out what I like more!
Many UIs are simply... "disaster", some o' them are quite good, few are really great... but I think (these lucky HTC bastards!) Manila 2D with TouchFlo is the BEST, the SIMPLIEST, the MOST FINGER-FRIENDLY of all!
So... I'm using M2D along with "Zeus BlackLite"...
Now... I want to find a GOOD, step-by-step tutorial of HOW TO MAKE MY OWN themes for M2D!
I'm capable to make good looking graphics (check my web-site: http://www.lupus-creations.gr - press the ENGLISH version! The other is... "all Greek to u"!), but I don't have a single clue of how to make a M2D theme or to make it in .CAB VERSION!
Can you give me your "lights"?
Also, finally, I've search the web to find out a decent LIVERPOOL FC theme, to install it first in my OMNIA, till I make my OWN Liverpool FC theme.
Is there any?
Thxs in advance for any kind answer of yours.
Regards,
R.
Best way to start mate is to take another theme unpack it then start replacing the graphics files with your own some of the Manila themes come Packaged in .m2dct (manila.m2dct) change the m2dct to .zip (Manila.zip) some come in cab files you can download freeware ce cab file software google it
Like your graphics and look forward to seeing your themes
Nice example here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424479
Got it...
I'm on it... Thxs, m8. And for your kind words, too.
I posted a cab with an xml tat makes less files to edit. it should be in the mega manila thread. Unpak the ab with wince cab manager or better yet ervius package creator.
in te initflashfiles ou will notice tat onl half of the files get dumped in windows. (lower file count in windows folder = better performance) I also got rid of 28 files that repeat them selves through out the tabs. also I changed most of the bitmaps to PNG'S (MUCH Better) some files still have to be bitmaps like the ones in the photo tab.
so it is less work and I tink that it should be a great starting point for you.
I personally like to make "performance" themes for manila. that is to say hemes made for low end devices like the wizard which has limited space ram and processor. so I usually save most of my files in 8bit 16 colors.
the challenge for me is to make it look good and work fast... currently working on a "ducati" theme. should live up to it's name.
I was actuall thinking about writing a tutorial recently concerning making lighter skins. reaon I started to make my own is that on some occasions I would istall some one elses on my wizard (when i still had it) and would get terribly dissapointed at he performance drop.
I think that will be my next project.
EDIT: found the page fot you.

BLOODY MARVELOUS, dear "S.V.I"!!!
Thxs a lot!
Another Q.
I've start workin' in a M2D skin o' mine...
I can't understand - first - HOW can I enable the ANALOG clock instead of the digital and... HOW - second - a skinner is managing to PLACE the analog clock NOT in the middle but in the upper-left corner! I've seen some skins, with the analog NOT IN THE MIDDLE! I want the same thing for my background pic, 'cause I have my "theme" in the middle and right... and I've left "empty" (more-or-less) the upper-left, for the clock...
Can you please gimme your "lights"?
Thxs.
P.S.: Generally, .png are TOTALY suitable for interfaces, instead .bmp - .bmp are HUGE kb's images and therefore, the skin will be "hard" for less-powerful devices.
enabling the analogue clock i a rgistry setting in hlkm.software.htc.manila.home. set the reg to 0.
there is a value in the home xml tat movs the center position of the clock. the number digits have to be moved also. the values for that are top left corner of the image file. it helps to draw a huge cursor layer to help you figure out the poitioning.
sorry for the spelling. my keyboard is misbehaving. mut be dirt under the keys.
as soon a I have some free time (hopefully this weekend) I will write this tutorial thing.
I have finally got the latest manila "fixed" with analogue clock as well as digital
did ou know that the botom bar (slider) can be only 1pxl wide?
Well, m8... you gotta write down this bloody tutorial for M2D!
I can't wait!
I hope you write it in this weekend... I'll be around, every day!
Cheers and thxs!

Would like to make a custom manila 2.5 slider

Can someone help me, i would like to change my 2.5 slider icons so they would look like the rhodium stock ones. I've attached a file (i don't remember which member did this.. sorry) with them resized to work properly with SENSE 2.1 's calendar tab (because of the date shown on the calendar icon).
more specifically, i'd like to know how to extract the files from that cab, and where i can get a 2.5 slider cab so i can change the colored icons to those black and white ones, plus new ones for the footprint & the twitter tab
Actually i have good basics on program developping but i have never made an executable cab file.
Also, does anyone know how i can get rid of taskbar icons that were pre-installed on a rom that i use (uzeb french rom).. i think he used this package ( http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=65911 ) (it's the same icons that i have on my device) but i would like to use the original 6.5 icons instead.
Thanks in advance!!!

To extract files from a .cab, I usually use cab2oem.exe, which will more or less achieve what you want.
To make .cab files, I use WinCE Cab Manager, which costs $99, though there are excellent free alternatives, such as QuickCab, if you don't need advanced features.
Lastly, to replace the icons, you need to use an untouched shellres.192.dll from a 6.5 ROM. Since I was working on a project involving such a file, I'll attach it (as a .cab installer). Just install it to your device, soft reset, and you're good to go. If the cab doesn't work, or it produces unexpected results, just uninstall it and post what happened here.
EDIT: It's attached. I had to zip it because the upload kept failing.
thanks a lot for your time dave, but i didn't see any images after extracting my cab, i just got 38 files without extentions (0cfe494a_manila, 59c727fc_manila,...) ---> 12 of them are 65kb each, 24 are 17kb each + I also have 1XML file, 1 RGU, 1 TEXT and 1 DSM. To be honest, i don't know what to do with that at all
And about your cab, well it did restore the SIGNAL icon and the notification icons (new text, missed calls...) but the rest stays the same (wifi, active sync, battery, volume...)
Anyway, thanks again man you're great

The manila files are as they should be. Manila uses PNG images that are somehow reformatted in a proprietary way, to become the xxxxxxxx_manila files. If you need to edit them, I'd look into Mode9 editor, or another manila editing program. Just set the directory that the xxxxxxxx_manila files are in for all folder options (when you start it for the first time), and you're good to go.
The DSM, XML, RGU, and Initflashfiles.txt files are useful only for cooking ROMs. Cab2oem is a tool for creating oem packages from cab files, so they can be baked into a ROM. Since you aren't cooking a ROM, you know that the files go into the \Windows folder, and there aren't any registry entries (confirmed by looking through the .RGU), they're not terribly useful to you.
As for the icons, I don't quite know what else to do. You could try dumping your ROM and looking for the images you don't want, then dumping a stock 6.5 ROM and taking the images you want from that. Then, you could create a .cab to replace the images, but I think that'd be a lot of work, not really worth it, and there's no guarantee it'd even work.
Also, if you manage to create a black and white slider, post it on XDA please(I like the black and white style from the older versions much more than the colored ones). Hope that helps
OMGHAX 600th post!
well the cab in the first post IS a fully working b&w slider but for SENSE2.1, all the icons are from the winmo 6.1 stock rom so if u have sense 2.1 in your device, my friend you will be happy with that cab trust me (somebody from xda did it for me a couple of weeks ago and i've tested it myself.. but i wanted SENSE 2.5 in french so much and a rom just came out that is not heavy on memory usage so i flashed my device for the 1st time but sadly, the rom was too customized ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/editpost.php?do=updatepost&p=4984984 ) even if the tweaking part is perfect
can't nobody take a look at this? Think about it guys : to have sense 2.5 with a the BLACK & WHITE stock SLIDER. + All the icons are provided with the perfect size (in the cab) except for twitter & footprints!! :S
wouldn't it be great?
so, nobody wants to see their rhodiums to look classy with 6.5? ...
just kidding
bump. i want some classy b&w slider icons for sense 2.5 (unfortunately, i cant help). my today screen just getting too much on it with maxmanila and i think it would look cleaner. the dusk theme has good looking slider, but i would like to see just the slider and not the whole thing (plus dont think its compatible with my current rom; juicy r5)

i'm with you on that, i mean there's too much colour on manila 2.5 home screen for our devices,... at least, if the slider looked like the stock one, b&w, the screen would look cleaned up,.. plus having a stock feel on it
(ag'n, sorry if me english bad izz, native language french )
I would also be interested in the STOCK black and white icons for the bottom bar/slider in Manila / Sense 2.5...
Thanks.
well i'm not a cook or a chef, but since an official landscape support is (obviously) coming soon, i think i will work on that seriously.. all the knowledge i have on the subject is what has been advised by "dave the tytnII guy" a couple of posts ago..
so to begin with that, i need the manilla files coming out of both:
-a basic sense 2.5 (by that i mean a portrait "only" version)
-the files from sense 2.5 with official landscape support (just like in ark666's latest rom)
-plain b&w icons for the footprint tab + the document tap + twitter tab (i have my ideas on how to get these but the final result may not be perfect..)
so i'll be sure to make 2 of them (since there's the document tab in the second one + landscape so there may be more files to handle -- also the one with landscape may not work on portrait versions of sense 2.5)
--->> i'm asking u xda folks : can anyone provide me those manilla files, and will anyone be able to put my work into a cab? (i'm not a pro, i'm just a passionnate HTC user )
currently using nrgz latest 2.5 rom, and i would also like to have a custom slider.
so far
i have done an export of all manila files from the phone to the pc, and then used cfc-gui to export all png file. this gives 1420 images.
i thought i could easily look through these files and spot which ones where the ones used for the slider and then replace them.
the trouble now is, i can see multiple images that could be the one used ( ie i have 5 twitter "t" that are all the right size )
so does any body know the manila file names of the items used in the sense 2.5 bar.
what would be handy is the manila file names for all
14 slider icons, the preview picture, also the icon used in the sense tab settings.
wow, this is exactly the way i have planned to proceed...
now, the only way i can think about is to start working with that, even if i have to do it one by one for all of the image files :S.. then it should work i guess
... but also we need to find the right images for both footprint and twitter tabs...
so nobody wants to see that happen i guess...
