manila 2d and today - Touch Cruise ROM Development

I love manila2d but i also like to have many apps in today as gprs counter etc
since it is not possible to have them on manila 2d....
would it be possible to launch manila as the cube? would like to choose between those two ways ..maybe it would be too slow
is it possible?

it would be ok even a second today that starts when you push a key and quit when you push it again.
I tried second today but it seems to don't work

SecondToday works for me really goooood. ...

Try this one, it work great for me :

Np here you go
You have to tell me what you want to se and i tell you in run smooth on my polaris when i shift betwin today screen it turn the other today programs down

ok, i see. will try to do a similar setup on mine. thanks!

Configuration homescreen
Is it possible configure today? I´d like to see more than only one appointment. I dont need to view the call history. So the best will be to cut call history and extend the calenar view...

I have secondtoday running:
1. TFlo 2d
2. Spd Diary
and this works very good.

It is posibility, but my idea is to see calendar in manilla today (it is so nice...). Calendar in default view is not so useful.

Yes, the same for me.
And when I push the calendar-button in the mainscreen, I open my second today which shows me SPB-diary!!
Download VJBrisk [http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJBrisk]
1. Rename vjbrisk.exe to Calendar.exe
2. Make a link to you secondtoday
3. Name the link VJTarget.lnk
4. Copy the new Calendar.exe and VJTarget.lnk to your Cruise in de \windows map

Thank you so much. But I dont need any calendar application - Im satisfied with the default one. Only I want to see 2 (or more) upcoming appointmens (in main home screen - manilla 2D. So my idea was to edit probably HTCHomeSettings.xml file. As i told: remove call history, it will make more space for calendar appointment. May be use smaller font if it will be necessary for view 2 (at least) appointments.

second today
hello
i have installed secondtoday.
First Today screen: TF2
Second Today screen: SPB Diary + the ''launching TouchFLO...'' which always stays like that. Am I doing something wrong here? I only want to see the SPB Diary program on my second today screen.
Please advise!
Thanks
piXie

in the options of secondtoday just check spb diary. Do NOT check TF2d.
TF2d has to be enabled only in general today settings

thanks!
piXie

Any idea where I can download a cab that contains manila 2D for polaris?

Todayagenda and manila2d

Hello to all brains
i have question
Is there a possibility to include spb diary or today agenda into manila2d surface?
It is for me very important that i see my apointments and my todolist when i open the phone. But today agenda and spb diary is only for the home of windows mobile and i cant see the progs. It would be perfect anyone of the brains can include it.
i know that it is possible for the spb mobile shell manila skin with a xml code but i dont know wheter it is possiple for the real manila2d

Best solution so far is to use SecondToday and map it to a hot key, that way any today plugins that aren't in manilla can be accessed with a single button push.

Using the SecondToday works just fine for me. Looks good and mapping it to a key. Is great. I rely too much on todayagenda to lose it on manila.

I fully agree! This would be really great.
Another thing I miss: I can't use phonealarm or any other today plugins. A profileswitcher would be great as well...

Install "Second Today" and you'll be able to use other plugins.
I found something about the commmanager tab at google an this forum but its is a solution for Touch Flo 3D and i can´t find the 26..._manila file on my htc with the Manila v5 Rom by EPS Roms. Please Help!
I would also like to be able to do this. Along with adding a more detailed calendar tab.

Problems with Manila 2D, pls help!! (Old:Searching for a new Today Plugin)

Hi Guys!
I wasn't online for a long time, i think everything has changed here
Well...i started this thread, because i cannot read through all unread threads...
Maybe i could help others with this Thread, too!
concern in this thread:
Currently im using Battery-Status + UltimateLaunch...It's very stable, but i don't like the theme anymore...also it doesnt support landscape...
So i want a new "Today Plugin".
"Wishlist" for the TodayPlugin:
- Portrait + Landscape Support
- Good looking (maybe a "modern" style)
- Stable (no Beta's, besides its stable!)
- Today-Screen integration (No MobileShell,PointUI,..., cause it's a "lay-over"-App(Reason for this: With this apps you need a hack/workaround, that the original today screen is NEVER shown!))
- low requirements (fast)
- Customizable (Define Program Pages, and define my own sms,mail,calendar,... -apps)
Which today plugin can i use???
If you don't want to help me, just ignore the thread

Truth is there is nothing that is %100 how you requested. Not yet anyway.
You have three you can look into:
Throttle Launcher (My favorite---ThrottleLauncher.com)
Manilla2D
GSmart
There is also HTC Home, but I think your more into the above stuff.
You must at least try Manila2D (TouchFlo2D).
thx very good article
thx very good article
Hi there!
I've tried Manilla 2D and...wow, THIS is what im searching for
BUT i have a lot of problems with it...
I've downloaded from this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173&highlight=Manila2D
the zip file "manila.zip" (the first downloadlink in this post) and installed all apps, including the 12MB big cab "Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926.CAB"
then i installed the manilla2D configuration tool...
then i've downloaded the german translation, an copied all files in the "windows" folder of the archive to my windows-folder of my device...
then i've downloaded the "bliss" theme (tsk+wall) and copied it also in my windows folder...then i activated the tsk file...
after this, m2d was starting...but i have following problems with it:
- If i switch to landscape, m2d stays portrait...so the bottom items are cropped...
- i cant see any text on the home tab....i can see the icons of "calendar" and "missed calls", but i CAN't see any text next to it! same problem on the "settings tab"...just the icons, no text...the same problem in the HTC album (if i click on a picture in the picture tab the album shows up...if i click the bottom right icon, i can see 4 lines..i think these are the options, but i cant see any text!!
- if i go to the weather tab, i cant see anything...blank screen...(maybe its the same issue, such as the "no-text"-issue in the tabs i mentioned above?)
- in the sms tab sometimes, there is "(null)" instead of the date...in the mail app this "(null)" is ALWAYS shown instead of the date...
- where can i download themes for m2d and add it in the m2d configuration tool?
- and is it normal, that i have to overwrite the background-png in the "manilaGFX" folder to gain my own background in m2d??
please help, manila2d is so beautiful

Dude, I know that you are confused, but everything is in the Manilla thread.
This thread shouldn't be opened.
the plugin (application) in my opinion would best meet all your requirement is wad 2, eventhough it is not free but you can download a trial version. it is highly customizable and you can find some very beautiful and modern looks. this is best application if you want to replace your desktop.
p.s recommended for advanced users only

@mankaranjot:
Well...Wad2 is cool, but VERY hungry...manilla 2d is the app im looking for..now i have to fix the problems

Contact tab on my Today Screen?

Hi guys, I have searched and searched but cant find.. Is there a prog that can fix so I can have lets say five contacts on my today screen? So I just tap them and either get some options, sms or call up. Or it just calls them up.
Hope u understand what I'm out after =)
Of course I mean the today screen with the TF3D disabled =)
Thx
If you are looking for an appliacation without TF3D, for a normal today application then try SPB Shell.

Sid
You can also add Contact's pictures as a quick shortcut on the main screen of SPB Pocket Plus.
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/?en
I have used nearly all of SPB applications, and they are absolutely professional.

You can definately use it with "2nd Today", I am using SPB Traveller with 4 different clocks & VOIP on the normal Today Screen.

Sid
I run SPB Mobile shell, it's not active as a plug-in, I can still use the slide move from "Start" tho ( 15 extra fav contacts and stuff ), and by using Fantastic Bytes Softkey Manager 1.1 my right softkey is set to SPB contacts, works like a charm

try http://software.palminfocenter.com/...tact---Contact-Management-with-a-Visual-Touch

notification for missed SMS

does anyone know how i can make my TD vibrate when i missed an SMS/EMAIL/CALL
(and keep vibrating every 5 minutes or so untill i read the message)
???
I'm intersted in this too. Is it possible?
I am very interested to this. + 1!
great idea!
it is possible?
Phoneweaver can do this among other things. Google it, its not freeware thou.
SPB Phone Suite can do this!
Pocketmax PhoneAlarm as well...
I believe all of these are Today plugins, so you'll need something like SecondToday to run them.

To get this to startup on phone start, go to program files/osRemindme, create a shortcut for the exe, then cut and paste to your windows/startup folder.
For this same purpose I have been using the alarmPal for sometime now, and now also on Diamond. Apart from vibrate, you can set reminders of missed calls/sms/email, like 1 time repeat every 2 minutes for next 3 times.
Check my signature for my solution (VibraNotify under 3 utilities)
SecondToday is not needed.
I am using SPB Phonesuite and once installed it is running in background. You can manage the setting in Start -> Settings -> System -> SPB Phone Suite. In phone notification you can select reminder for unread message and missed call in every 1/5/15/30 min and notification type (sound and/or vibrate).
Just without secondtoday you cannot use other feature like photo speed dial. And I did not notice any extra battery consumption.
((I have never tried Phoneweaver and Phonealram but if they would add the programme shortcut anywhere in the windows and running in the background just like SPB Phonesuite do, then I suppose you don't need SecondToday too))
I've just switched from Phoneweaver to SPB Phonesuite. Both can be controlled without the today screen, but I preferred SPB Phonesuite as you can set it to remind you with a tone different to the normal one. Phoneweaver reminds you too but plays the same tone. Both have automatic profiles too, which work excellently.
