Hi,
I've installed Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB on top of Sundreams ROM.
This ROM rocks and it very fast on my BA with apps installed. OCed the BA using XCPUScalar.
However I've got a problem with the adding Programs shortcuts in TouchFlo (launcher tab). After selecting the program, the form closes and no program is added to the shortcut. The + remains a +. Anyone experienced this problem?. Is there a way to add the shortcuts manually in a configuration file?.
Also where can I configure TouchFlo settings?
Also the front screen calendar is too basic for my taste. I used SPB diary. How can I use a more advanced calendar with TouchFlo (shows 5 days or more)?.
Thanks to all ROM contributors. Any insights appreciated.
Customize it using this one:

make sure you installed all the Xplode CABS before the manila to have it working
This is from my own experience I am sure some experts can help more.
Update
Thanks for the reply.
I have installed the following cabs:
HTCAlbum-2.5QVGA.cab
Aku1.4 Sounds.cab
Aku1.4 welcomehead.cab
HTC htcStartMenu.cab
HTC Enchansements.cab
HTC TaskManager 2.1.34837.5
HTCFlashLite.cab
HTC AudioManager.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
To which cabs are you actually refering to?. Am I missing something?.
Well as regards to the launcher, I have added the applications manually via registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Launcher, however the application do not run when clicked on. Icons appear as a 'blank icon' rather than '+'

Any ideas?
As far as the calendar, no one seems to have been able to use a different calendar as of yet. Having said that, there is one alternative that I am using right now (with which I am pretty happy). There is a program in the Dev and Hacking section that is called Manila Control
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447504&highlight=manila+control
This will allow you to switch back and forth between Manila and Today (just set up an Up-Down gesture with FTouchFlo Config). You can then put any Today plugin that you want (ie SPB Calendar) and just switch to it when you need to see your calendar. Hope this helps you on that end.
Now, as far as the cabs, you should install the following cabs:
HTC_Enchansements.cab
HTC AudioManager_2.0_1819.1228.cab
GoogleMaps_compressed.cab
HTC_Task_Manager_2.1_34837.5.cab
HTC_Album2.0_1818.3032.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
FSP, DShow, WMP, Youtube, Video Fixes.cab
These are the ones that I have on my device and I have not had any issues with speed or anything like that. Hope this helps!
Thanks for feedback. I have managed to find a workaround via registry. I did'nt add the "uptime" key before. Once added the icons are functional and show up.

Attached is a cab installer for HTC Plus!
This application adds a nice clock and messages interface to the today menu, as well as adding an application launcher with included high quality icons for the applications.
As found, this application was non-functional. HTCImgCodec.dll has been added (exists in some ROMs already) and registry settings have been changed to disable the Backlight Adjust function. For some reason when this function is enabled the device hangs during boot and a hard reset is required to fix. You have been warned. DO NOT ENABLE BACKLIGHT ADJUST.
Screenshots below. More stuff to come.
UPDATE: I've replaced the file with an updated version. This update changes the installation defaults in a manner that should help anyone who experienced a problem installing the previous version. No changes are made in the plug-in, so if you already have it working don't bother updating.
another new one to try thanks bro awe3some!!
It looks interesting!! Thanks for the new stuff and more important, for the warning!
Very cool today plugin! Too bad it doesn't have weather... So, Ill stick to the HTC Home plug.
OK
Nice and pretty, thanks my friend.
not working x500 wm6 =(
now we need it customized like all the other HTC plugins.
Customisation
This plugin is easily customisable. The layout is stored entirely as bmp images under \Windows\HTCPlus. And all the programs chosen can be modified under HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCPlus\Shortcuts.

good
Very cool today plugin!
looks nice! can i still use htc customizer to customize it?
Nice today plugin.
However, it is still lag far behind O2 Plus, which has sould profile, call forwarding, task manager and more...
very nice man
Thanks
Nice! Although I still prefer HTC Home.
Looks great, but couldnt get it to work on my Touch. The today plugin does not appear on the screen, nor in the list with available plugins. The Options tab is present though :\
great thankz
thsnkz,
jdac21
Thanks a lot
I'm going to try it
Unfortunately not working
possible fix
I also originally had the problem where the plugin was not appearing in the list of plugins or on the today screen, but the HTC Plus tab was still displayed in settings. I was able to fix this problem by copying HTCImgCodec.dll into \Windows. I added it to the cab. Perhaps this file is not being copied? Check for its existence and try manually extracting it to \Windows if it doesnt show up.

I installed it on my Artemis with official HTC Asia WM6 rom and for me it works until you switch off the device. Than you can never switch it on again, only by soft reset with stylus!
So I uninstalled the prog quickly...
Otherwise it would be nice to have it on Today screen, so if someone could construct a bug-free cab from the extracted files I would really welcome it!
cheers
Will download an try when I get home!
has anyone been able to customize this plugin?
1. add voicemail to indicators
2. map text message indicator to palm threaded messaging app
i love the simplicity of this plugin, hopefully someone will develop this or perhaps point me in the direction on how to customize this plugin.
I am currently using WAD2.0 and very happy with it...
Just wondering what is Manilla 2D and what is TF3D - these are apparently "all the rage" and just wondering what I am missing??
can someone explain in basics what each of these are?
are they just skins to appear like the Diamond?
Thanks!
no they are not skins they are the 'new' htc home apps from the diamond (tf3d) and the jade (manilla 2d). You can't run tf3d on your vogue so don't bother, I've been running manilla 2d for quite a while and I really like the ease and flow of the interface. the best was to put it on your vogue is with a new rom that includes it, however you can also install it using the downloads from the thread in the dev/hacking forum.
Try it, you'll probably like it.
thanks ; when you say "home apps" do you mean that manila replaces the Today screen.
can I run Wad and Manilla ?
also, i searched for a .cab for manilla, but cant find it - there numerous skin, manilla-hack threads, etc, but please link me to the cab install thread. Thanks!!!!
if you get a rom with it already included you can install manilla controll and switch back to a second today screen using a softkey.
Hey folks,
I would like to configure the softkeys on the Touchflo home screen (bottom).
I want to set left sw botton to contacts and right sw button to calendar.
I tried this ways and no one worked:
- Software KeySwop 0.4.1
- Software HD Tweak 0.5.4
- Software RemapSoftkeys 1.0.0.1
- direct edit of the regiytry (as seen here: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/...tcuts-on-windows-mobile-today-or-home-screen/)
KeySwop was able to change the names of the buttons, but no one worked after that.
Any ideas to manage that issue?
Greetings

Manila 2d customizer
Just tried to add calendar with M2DC and it worked without problem.
hm... have you installed Manilla 2D (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173) and the Manilla 2D Customizer (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392)?
Seems to be very beta. Runs without problems on Iolite/Xda Guide?
Thx
Woko
Hello, no need to install Manilla2D in our devices. It's already present (TF2D).
finished
Perfect!
Manilla 2D Customizer solves it quick and easy.
Installation on storage card is possible.
Thanks!

im using tfdetacher 6.5 and the right softkey on the wm6.5 today screen says touchflo but when i goto touchflo, how do i set the right softkey to take me back to the 6.5 today screen?
In the tfdetacher config program. I believe it is in your start/programs by default.
its in my programs start menu but i click on it and it just takes me back to touchflo today screen, i wanna get my wm6.5 today screen
Try looking under settings, or a folder called system tools, or something like that. There should be a program called TFD Config somewhere in your Startmenu. You did install TFD and having it currently running right?
yes its installed and running but its real slow on switching over and sometimes the soft keys will start flashing and also i want to be able to use weatherpanel 2009 but cant seem to figure all this out. srry, im such a noob..lol
Dunno what to say man. It works flawlessly on my Vogue. Maybe you have too many programs running and are low on RAM. Sorry I don't have any other tips.
ok, what version of touchflo detatcher do you use on your vogue and also, could you post your screenshots of all the settings that i need to do to make it work and to make weatherpanel 2009 be incorarated in that as well. i do have 2nd today installed just havnt set it up yet
ok, i've set the softkeys correctly in tfconfig and they still dont respond. is there something i need to do to the registry to get tfdetacher to work right on my vogue using NFSFAN'S V12 6.5 ROM
ok, i fixed my issue except im not using tfdetacher, instead i downloaded and installed Manila Control v1.0, went to config and selected manila 2d which fixed the right softkey on my touchflo today screen but not on the 6.5 side so i then got into my registry and changed these variables:
1. goto HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CClock
2.change SK2TEXT from "Set" to "TF2D." (no quote)
3.change SK2URL from ":MSCLOCK;AppRunToHandleNotification" to ":M2D_Ctrl" (no quote)
4. do a soft reset and everything works great
now all i need to do is figure out how to incorporate Weatherpanel 2009 in this equation, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hi guys
Been searching for ages now on the forum and on Google and haven't been able to find the solution to a couple of issues I'm having with Sense 2.5 on the official HTC ROM (which was flashed by HTC on repair of my TP2)
1 - the text messaging is useless (for me) in Sense 2.5. I prefer the original Windows mobile way of messaging - how do I get back to that? SMS doesn't appear in Outlook anymore???
2 - None of my methods that worked in the previous WM6.5 Sense 2.1 ROM for making the Start menu appear in 4 rows seems to work?
3 - Shapps Advanced Config seems to disable my settings? I can't get into Remove programs so can't uninstall? Need to Hard Reset?
If anyone can help with the above I'd be very grateful!
Thanks
Hello,
1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614
3. Go to the Manila Settings-Tab. There is a program entry (I don't now how it calls in english ROMs). There you can unistall Software.
Hi ChatFix
Thanks for a quick reply!
I'll have a look at that link now
Unfortunately I didn't explain 3 properly - the settings tab in manilla is not accessible once I install Advanced Config, so there's no way of actually getting back to the Remove Applications icon to be able to uninstall it...

1. I can use Windows Messaging instead of HTC messaging with no problems.
2. I do have this problem, but I believe there is a reg edit specific to 6.5 that my 6.5.5 one does not work on nor does any that were for Sense 2.1.
3. I think your installation of the ROM or Advanced Config is borked. I have no problems at all.
I have found this little tool. So you can disable Manila, uninstall your software and enable manila with the today-settings from windows mobile.
Hi guys!
Thanks for your replies, it's really appreciated
Nagrom - Did you use the link provided by ChatFox to enable use of the Windows Messaging Client rather than the HTC one?
Chatfix - what exactly does that file do? Does it disable the entire Manilla 'home' screen and display the standard Windows Today screen (or WM6.5 Titanium screen) or does it still display the normal Manilla 'home' screen but disable certain parts of the HTC 'wrapper' (e.g. notification bar)
Oh - after the last hard reset, Advanced Config appears to be working OK now, phew!
I'm teetering on the edge of reflashing the old Sense 2.1 ROM, but I really don't want to!
This file disables all Today-Plugins. (Manila 2.5 is still a Today-Plugin)
