Rom cooking + welcome.exe

Hello everyones
I'm cooking a French ROM, so I've a problem with welcome.exe.
I've a shorcrut in startup folder so it start at each SR. So what the method for auto-delete the lnk file in startup after hard-reset ?
Sorry for my poor English.
Thanks in advance.

I'am certainly far from the problem, but in wm5 the welcome.exe is in the windows file (not start menu) but how it move i don't know

Normaly, welcome.exe have a link in startup but is auto-deleted after execution, in my ROM no (and you say that ) but I don't know why...

I'am not sure, but if you think it's an auto-delete, how can you do "align screen" after ? (i've not test it with ur rom )

No it only delete the link

make a cab that adds a welcome.lnk to startup folder but link it to some other exe this should overwrite the alignment link and add that cab to extrom

Installing themes/manila files without using TF3D Config on a 1.93 o2 ROM

Hi All
First of all I am new to all of this but have spent the last week trying to figure out what to do but failing badly - therefore apologies to you all if my question could be easily found through a google search ...., but I have failed to find it
So at the heading says - how do I install a theme/manila files onto my Ignito without using TF3D Config - I have tried copying them across to the windows directory but still cannot see them listed under the Today settings.
I am using TF3D, on a 1.93 rom on a O2 UK tariff
Fingers crossed someone will be able to help me in simple - idiot proof - instructions
Thanks all
Jean

Ermmm - in light of the fact 77 people have looked at this but not replied does that mean ....
a. Its a really stupid question not worthy of a reply
or
b. No one knows the answer

a lot of people use tf3d config on 1.93 roms with no known
problems.give it a try.you can always take it off again and
return to your stock rom.

Hi i have a 1.93 rom which had the o2 theme, i installed the original black theme on it using tf3d config and ive had no problems.

use total commander to copy and paste the files into the windows directory!

Is there actually a reason why you're trying to do this? TF3D Config is a quick and easy method for changing your theme so to try and accomplish this manually seems needlessly complex. Which, I'd guess, is probably why no one's answered your question; it's likely that no one has ever tried to do it manually as TF3D Config does it all for you.
For the record I've got the stock 1.93 ROM on O2 and I've managed to change theme with TF3D Config without any problems at all. My girlfriend's done the same with her stock 1.93 Vodafone ROM.

Hi All
Thanks so much - the problem I am having is that I can't find any themes within the TF3D config programme - so for example - it asks for a path to the file containing the theme - I highlight the theme location but it then does'nt load
Am I being really dumb!!
Thanks again all

loool OMG select the folder where your themes are located!

You can't select TF3D themes in the Today settings. A WM6 theme (.tsk files) yes, but no Touchflo.. You'll have to either use TF3DConfig> Create a folder called 'themes' (without quotes) in your storage card and put the xxx.theme files in there. Use tf3dconfig, press 'path', doubble click storage card, highlight themes, and press 'ok'. There has to be only .theme files in there, no folders or zip files, they don't work...
Or if you want to copy files to the windows directory, the method is to extract all the manila-files from a theme. Copy and overwrite all the manila files to the windows folder. Folders, zip-files or .theme-files do not work. Only manila files. I wouldn't recommend this one, but you gotta do what you gotta do..

Thanks again - I've done exactly as you say - and in fact that's what I have been doing - yet no theme is available within TF3D - I'm trying to install a manila theme called Black n Blue - I get a warning saying I must have 20mb free - which I have - so at a complete loss as to the problem.

Hmm this is weird.. what ROM do you have? Is it stock? And what version of tf3dconfig are you using?

Rom: 1.93.206.3 wme - Original o2 VERSION
TF3Dconfig: 0.6.7
It's very frsutrating as the process should be simple - yet installing a manila theme in anyway seems impossible - I can change the picture background via Flo and of course have a WM theme if I turn off Touch Flo - just not install a theme that intergrates with TFlo - thanks for the time and help

Yes I can imagine. But on the thread about tf3d config, it says 'Please do not install a Theme on a 1.93 ROM!' Maybe he's referring to stock roms? I also have a 1.93 rom, but it works without any hassle. You are not willing to update to a custom rom?
Have you tried to copy all the manila files to your windows folder? Use total commander.. original explorer does not work..

I think that's what I'm going to have to do - just less hassle if I can get away without replacing the rom - never mind it was worth a try - the weird thing is even copying across to the windows folder- via ActiveSyn - also does'nt work - so a bit stumped
Thanks for all the help though

You would have to use Total Commander to to copy files from your 4gb storage card to your windows folder. It doesn't work with activesync or explorer..

Ahh okay thats good to know -off to try!!!!

Perfect - fiddly - but worked a treat - it was trying to copy across via Active Syn that was the issue - hugely appreciated thank you

It's worth noting that this can't be an issue with stock ROMs because both my girlfriend and I have successfully updated our TF3D themes using TF3D Config and we both have stock 1.93 ROMs.
Not that that helps you out at all, but at least people reading this will know it is perfectly possible to do this using a stock ROM.

Same here, i have tried many themes on the stock o2 ROM with the TF3D config with no issues.

I can't believe so many people out there don't realize what the problem is. The aforementioned "Black and Blue" theme (and many others) is NOT a .theme file, so the TF3D Config application CANNOT be used to apply it. It is instead just a bunch of manila files that need to be copied into the Windows directory (with Total Commander from the sound of it). I have had the same problem with the same theme.
Are we being dumb in that there is a simple way to create the .theme file? From a collection of manila files?

How do you use .theme ?

how do you use .theme ?

Personally I am also not sure but I think you did not bother to search it out.
Others might famed you for this... so do a search b4 you post a new topic
No offense

install it with Diamond TF3D Config 0.6.7

Sorry...
I should have been more specific i have 1.93 rom which it it doesnt work on, i meant any other way then TF3D Config.

I have "instruction", how to do this:
1.Instal Manila Customizer (on Internal Storage!).
2.Make new Directory in "\Internal Storage\Program Files\Manila Customizer\Icons\".
3.Extract files from "*.theme" by WinRar (or another APP) into new folder.
4.Create empty ".jpg" file, named as Your folder, and copy it to "\Internal Storage\Program Files\Manila Customizer\Icons\".
5.Run "Manila Customizer".
6.Click "Options->Change->Icons", and find your folder name near "Item Name:".
7."Click to Apply Iconset".
8.Click "Exit->Exit and Start TF3D".
I think, it can help you...
PS. Sorry for my English

TF3D Config does work on 1.93 ROMS, I've no idea why the TF3D Config thread says that it won't as this has been proved time and time again to be false.

1. TF3D works on 1.93 for some.. or most^^
2. Rename "Blabla.theme" to "Blabla.zip" or Blabla.theme.zip whatever u want... then u can extract all files and copy them to your Internal Storage.
From there u can use Resco Explorer or another explorer to copy the manila files to /windows
overwride everything and restart TF3D Today Plugin.

Thanks xmod

Hi xboxmod
Great job man~
It work on my diamond.
Thanks a lot

You did it! Only glitch, you have to tap "Tap here to start TF3D" after soft reset... however, impressive! A bunch of people will thank you, and I'm one of those!
So last thing to fully port HD to Diamond is the list of letters on the right when you scroll for example in "select city" weather tab... it's too long, is it just a matter of resize like that in the HD weather panel to actually see the 5 days icons on the bottom?

Awesome work!
PS. maybe you can add a reg to avoid the manila show in the TaskManager:
[HKCR\Software\HTC\TaskManager\ExclusiveList\System]
"manila2.exe"=dword:0

not bad.. quick and easy bro!
i see that it basically cuts outs the steps that was needed to run the app, cause the keyboard pops up.
either way..thanks for this!
Late,

Hi xboxmod, really thanks for your work. Unfortunately, after i installed the cab, my manila.exe keep crashing even i tried your manila.zip attached. Please help if you feel free....
1. My windows folder manila.exe is 3mb... why ur attached one just 12kb?
2. I have 7mb free space before install the cab , after install and uninstall this cab i only have 4.xmb left, which files i can delete ?? (Now i restore my 3mb manila.exe and i can't see any manila2.exe in my windows folder.)
Again, thanks for your effort and i still want to make it work anyway....

thank you, works like charm so far!
yet it´s not that small (3mb), luckily I have enough space due to custom rom ;-)

HI
my cab contain 2 files
manila.exe (my loader)
& manila2.exe (quartz tf3d executable)
my loader work like this:
the today plugin call manila.exe (12kb)
then manila.exe call manila2.exe the real manila executable!
so be sure to delete manila.exe before install the cab
& use only Mun_rus manila or hd manila

Nice work Xboxmod.
Could you share the complete package of your manila?

Thx work excellent? Does it restart at 0 atomaticually?
Great work =)

Opal Phone Canvas CAB

Hi,
i downloaded the Pack linked here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2870848
But this one is not installable on my Polaris. It says "Installation not successful".
I also downloaded M-Amines Opal Phone, but this one is also not installable correctly and it does not have this slider, that protects the buttons, that i can not click "end call" with my face
Does anyone have a Cab with the slider as shown on the pics in the link above?
I have M-Amine's 2.0 (GER) installed
Thanks...

I don't remember where I got this cab from and I'm not sure whether it has the slider to answer etc. You might want to check the name/size just to make sure it isn't one you already tried. Hope it helps.

Thanks, it is the right one.
BUT: It looks weird
The Slider is not transparent and the Red Button which ends the call is only red and does not show any font.
Do you know why and how to fix it? Maybe I'm doing something wrong

Read this in another thread but can't remember where it was: Maybe try this and then attempt to reinstall the cab file. Hope this helps.
Delete reg keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PhoneCanvas & set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled=0, it should then return to the default windows mobile dialer.

You need the right language files for your ROM.
I installed mbarvian's CAB from here, and it has 3 language file:
phcanrc.dll.0409.mui
ContactAssistDll.dll.0409.mui
PhoneSettingExt.dll.0409.mui
Since I use your same ROM (M-Amine 2.0 [ITA]) I needed .410.mui files and managed to extract these
phcanrc.dll.0410.mui
PhoneSettingExt.dll.0410.mui
from AZTOR Diamond's ROM, and just copied ContactAssistDll.dll.0409.mui to ContactAssistDll.dll.0410.mui.
I am attaching these files, just unzip in \windows and reboot.

P.S.
I also had to install jadeStatusIcons.cab to fix the "battery shows as always full" problem.

Here you go...
I haven't tested these files, but they should work.
In order to extract more languages, just download the ROM in your language from AZTOR thread, extract DIAMIMG.nbh from the archive and issue these commands (you can find the executable here in XDA, just download a recent kitchen...):
NBHextract.exe DIAMIMG.nbh
ren *_OS.nb OS.nb
NBSplit.exe -kaiser OS.nb
ImgfsFromNb.exe OS.nb.payload imgfs.bin
ImgfsToDump.exe imgfs.bin
If everything is fine, you will find a "dump" folder which contains every file in the ROM, just open it and search for the MUIs in your language.

Any idea?
Many many BIG Thanks in advance !!

Hi all
I reply to myself: I got the solution:
For whatever reason the Category key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0 was corrupted: after Ring, some gabrage appear poluting the key.
I just earased it and leaving only Ring and now my phone is ringing and vibrating again.
