Manila2D on Sony Ericsson X1 (Instructions and file in here!)

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!

I'd really like to know that too!

I suppose someone will have to look into the Xperia Panel SDK:

Too bad I cant program : (((

I've already got that installed... but unfortunately they only support C++ for Panels at this time... am waiting for 'em to support C# and VB.Net CE.

Lets hope it wont take them too long to bring out a new version! )
Nelsh:
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"

If you just install Manila2d (without the VGA-icons and without my HTCHomeSettings.xml), does it work then?

I installed non-HTC device patch, and now it's working. It's quite fast.

NavNGo iGo 8 for the X1

I'm a long-time fan of NavNGo's iGo navigation solution, and since yesterday also a happy owner of an X1. However, these two are currently not on speaking terms with each other. Installation seems to work fine, but clicking the application icon results in, well, nothing.
Searching the net in general and this forum in particular has shown me that this has been a problem with a number of HTC devices. I have tried a couple of the proposed solutions for some of them, but none have worked so far. Has anyone managed to get iGo 8 (or, for that matter, 2006 - I have both) running on the X1 and, if so, how? Any help would be appreciated.

did you update to the latest version with the contentmanager? also try to disable agps on your x1 and try again, but what also can happen is that it dont likes the WVGA Resolution for that i dont have an solution.
regards charon

Using latest version. I read in other forums about disabling agps, but saw other posts claiming that was not necessary with the latest version. Either way, if I'd want to try it, how do I disable agps?

I think what you have to do is find a skins that is wvga compatible for it. I've been looking all over the net to find one, but I cant. I'm sure this is the problem.

I've seen this site before, but when you look at the included resolutions in the folders they only have 400x240.

Download the skin with 400x240 resolution and modify the sys.txt to include the following lines
[interface]
resolution_dir="400_240"
vga=1

well.. Did it work?
I'm also a fan of iGO8 and I'm getting my X1 tomorrow.
So I really hope it works ok.
one thing you could try is to add the sys.txt lines without using the skin. Does the original skin resize if you do that?

Oh sorry for the mix up, I've basically been preparing all my software that I was using on my omnia to use on my X1 that I will get in a few days, So I won't be able to test this yet, but I believe that the skin was the only think that would've been a problem on the x1, but now it's solved. If it doesn't work even with the skin, I have tomtom7 that I know works on the x1 (according to other owners). But I can't wait to have mine!!!

Hi to everybody,
I thought about using the Garmin, but if the Igo could be used on the X1 it would be better still.
Do you have novelty?

[3/12/08] HTC Touch HD TouchFLO 3D for VGA Devices (like Diamond or Raphael)!

Hey guys,
Even though I don't have a Diamond or Raphael, I decided to take a stab at this one, because I've seen many people requesting it.
So, without further ado, here is the download link for the dumped Manila from the HTC Touch HD:
http://www.4shared.com/file/74338802/4bedbf7a/MBarvian_Blackstone_Manila.html
And if it doesn't work, the link to the Touch Pro TouchFLO 3D:
http://www.4shared.com/file/74338804/a28e1a4f/MBarvian_Raphael_Manila.html
Please report back with your findings!

Hi my friend, i´d like to try this HD Manila but your links don´t work, can u please upload somewhere else?
Cheers

ikow this is probabaly a dumb question..but if im runnin a FUZE with TF3D why would i want the Touch HD version?
is there significant differences?

yes, like the ability to customize manila (change order of tabs, etc.), (should have) a smoother experience, and a whole new stock tab!

it is very easy to customize. I believe it's in the Settings tab that you can change the order (left to right) of the tabs by dragging and dropping. Also, you have a stocks tab on your Fuze?

I'd like that answer too. Any perceived problems in just trying it anybody (assuming the device has hard SPL that is)?

Doesn't work
On my Athena (VGA, WM 6, original ROM) I tried the Blackstone TF3D, after install it went into a loop
1 - "Tap here to launch TouchFlo 3D"
2 - "Launching TouchFlo"
Then back to 1 again, after a few loops it froze
After complete uninstall of Blackstone, I tried the Diamond TF3D, all files copied but no setting, or program to launch, it also did not appear in Settings/Today/Items where it could be checked.
Was looking forward to giving some better feedback than this but neither TF3D runs at all.

[DEV] OpenGL ES Test Application

Hi everyone...
I've been playing around with OpenGL ES, struggling to get it to compile, and eventually succeeding to discover that some of the parameters I set wouldn't work on the Diamond.
I've fixed all of the issues that I know of and now I want to see what devices a little test application will work on.
Hopefully, it should work on all the MSM720X based devices, and anything else that supports OpenGL|ES, that support can either be hardware or software acceleration, so those of you without the more recent devices can give it a shot and see what happens.
You should be presented with a triangle, that you can reorientate with mouse click and drags...
If people could test it out and see what happens, I'd be very happy
It may even lead somewhere!
Tested and verified on:
HTC Touch Diamond
HTC Touch Diamond2
Xperia X1 (sortof...)
HTC Touch HD
HTC Touch Pro

it works perfectly on my HD !

I've tested it on my german O2 XDA Diamond Pro and it works very well and feels very smooth - even with chainfires gfxboost being disabled...

Fast and smooth for me
Did you do it in C++ or Managed Code?

Click to expand...

C++. Which is why I had trouble setting it up. Koush's managed API is easier to set up, but slower to run...

Attached is a new version that utilises a wrapper for some OpenGL ES functions, and l3v5yExtendedFunctions for some window creation etc...
It should have comparable frame rates, memory usage etc.
It also utilises the accelerometer of HTC devices, tap the center button (or anything that sends VK_RETURN) do toggle it.
You need to copy both dlls and the exe to your device, then run the exe.

Fast and smooth on my diamond here
and the new version is flickering a bit by fast moves

I don't know, if this has supposed to work on Iolite (different chipset), so i tried it . App even didn't start. It shows usual error with "either it is not signed..."

That probably means your device doesn't have a libGLES_cm.dll file. Which means that by default there's no OpenGL ES support.

Something that may be of interest to people here...
This is a game built off the framework created earlier... Should work on the same devices

Tested all apps on HTC Jade and all run smoothly..

Tested on x1 Test1 in post1 works but freezes for a second here and there.
test2 run but displays hello! and then closes.
and in the coin thread i reported it worked flawlessly on my x1

But since the coin works, it may be because of the version of the dlls... No idea why... I'll have a look though!

[GAME] Collapse Chaos- Another Block game from AT&T

Collapse Chaos​This came from dumped Topaz ROM and should resize itself to most resolutions(see below for confirmation). Works great on VGA Raphael(Fuze). I had a whole thing typed up about the game, but it got lost when I tried to upload. It is a game like Tetris/Bubblebraker which you have to touch similar colors to clear the stage. There are several types of gameplay as well as "Quest" and "Free Play" modes. Unlock more by playing quest Attatching a few screens. I suggerst you try this game If you find where game data is saved I willl add a backup feature in my Flashback scriipt(see sig).
I will remove the cab at request of AT&T or software developer if there are any copyright issues​
Tested Devices
(Report if it is working, stock ROM, Cooked ROM, any details)
Tested and working on Fuze.
Tested on TP2 some working, some not. May be a ROM issue?
Does not resize well on QVGA devices, but can be played if you dont mind the resizing issues.
Not working on Diamond yet
Possible Solution to Game starting for a moment then just exiting found here.​
LINKY HERE​
Recommend installing to device to avoid problems
EXT available upon request.​

Works great on the Fuze. oddly quickly addictive. it's similar to the other games with a nice time constraint and the modes are nice as well. Great find! Here's a little more on it (I borrowed your photos) http://www.fuzemobility.com/collapse-chaos-in-the-wild/

Another new rom?
BRB.. Got to flash mah Fuze! lol
Nice game!

this sounds great ! Thanks for sharing dude

thanks, im trying it out now on my blackstone

Orange UK Diamond Working Fine
Great little game, nice find dude!
Working great on my Orange UK Diamond (1.93.405.1 WWE).
Oddly isn't resizing correctly on my GF's Omnia - graphics all chunky, edges and tops of screen missing etc.
P.

works more or less on the T-Mobile Wing
But the resolution is definitely off. I can only see part of the screen (part of the black area in the center actually), as if it zoomed on the middle. So the blocks on the periphery are not visible and the bottom row is almost completly cut off (I'm talking about the row of blocks before the horizontal line). The score on top is not visible during the game either.
The pixels are also kinda large. I think it tries to display for a VGA screen.
Oddly enough, I can still play the game and reach level 10.
And the link to the menu is superimposed to the bottom row of blocks.

on my touch hd the resolution is off a bit but the rest works fine, miri 2.5 rev 7.1

it doen't work on my HD
When i launch it I've got a black screen for 1 second then I come back to the home sceen of TF3D...

What are the odds on getting this ina QVGA resolution?

Doesn't work on my Diamond with BSB6.5R. *tear*

Doesn't work on my topaz either ...

Works great on my Rhodium. Thanks.

Thank you. It looks great.
But at the moment it does not work on my HD.
It tries to start but immediately goes back to the TF3D home screen.

Just to say it works on my polaris QVGA so im happy . Maybe it has to be a topaz/rhodium base for the app to work otherwise im out of ideas. or 6.5??
