I've been searching for some answers, but have come up empty. If there is a thread where there is more info specifically on the new TF3D2 interface, please point me to it.
I just upgraded to my first 1.56 ROM (Dutty's 3.7). The new interface is taking a bit of getting used to, especially the change in the "Programs" and "Start" menu (i.e. they are now the same thing). Has anyone found a way to seperate the two? Also, "All Programs" option takes you to a single colum list, which is annoying to scroll through to find a program that you didn't put into the main programs page. Is there a way to get the old system back, where "All Programs" was handled by WinMo and the icons could be sorted into folders?
I used "TF3D2 Tweak V1 By At0mAng & Danny_and_2" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502102) to enable the Programs tab, but the tab is the same as the start menu, and doesn't scroll properly. Was there an alternative to this?
I also tried to use Tweak HD 0.5.4 to change the soft keys and a few other settings, but it doesn't work quite as well. Has anyone found a (better) way to change the soft keys on the home page?
Finally, I'm getting a weird colours on my screen on startup. When I turn off/on the screen (using the power button, or if it turns it self off after a minute), the problem goes away. This isn't a ROM/SPL problem, as it didn't happen the first couple times I started the phone, only after I installed something (I think).
Thing's I've installed:
G-alarm, CorePlayer, Live Search, Total Commander, Skyfire, AE Button Plus, TF3D2 Tweak, HD Tweak, FInix_VGA_Battery_Icons, htcAddicts cleanRAM, few Dutty's add-on cabs. Any culprits?
(Image 3 is after I've turned the screen off/on)
Thanks for the help!
HI
Mate,
For me it looks like SPL problem for sure ....Did you make sure you have the correct SPL version before flashing ?
I did. Followed CrackWhore's guide, and made sure I had 1.54 Signed SPL/Official 1.56 ROM, then used USPL 2.5 to flash to Dutty's 3.7. It all worked fine, and there wasn't any colour problems at first. Must have restarted 5-6 times while installing stuff. Colour problem only started after installing something. If it was an SPL problem, would the problem go away after turning the screen off/on?

I agree,have you tried re-flashing ?
I haven't, though I think reflashing would fix the colour problem. I'm not too worried about the colour thing, though, as it's only an issue during startup, not regular use.
I'm more concerned about personalizing the programs menu/soft buttons.
there are cabs/tweaks which will make the start menu go back to normal and you can add the programs tab. Same goes for changing the programs to the 3/4 column version. You should be able to find directions for both in either Dutty's thread in the ROM Dev section or in the Applications section of the thread.
Thanks, I've looked there, and I'll search a bit more. But at 727 pages, Dutty's thread is one of the longest threads around! If anyone can point me in the right direction (app names), I'd appreciate it.
EDIT: For anyone that may have the same/similer problem, here's a solution I've found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505400. Though it doesn't change the Start menu or programs tab, it changes the format of the All Programs list, so it's four colums instead of just 1.
Still looking for a way to change the soft keys on the home screen and to get a working programs tab.
Reflashing Dutty's should fix your colour problem.
I had the same issue... For some strange reason it seems changing the HSPL from 1.14 Olinex to 1.56 Olinex and then flashing your first 1.56+ ROM causes the boot up screen problem. Then I flashed another 1.56+ ROM and the issue went away. Well for me anyway.
arpitp, You can go through this thread. There are multiple solutions/options. for having folder links in start menu
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=518217
Ah, thanks crajee! That should give me enough room to sort/link my programs, no need for the programs tab then.
Thanks everyone for the help!

Hey guys,
I installed Touchflo on my Xperia. Works very well! But i have a problem.
The right key keeps remapping it's self back to "Today" after i start Touchflo.
I want this button to turn the display arround, but everytime i set it up, it remapps itself again after starting Touchflo.
I there a solution for this problem?
settings -> button -> map as whatever you want
what do you mean with "turn the display arround"? landscape?
In short, no solution if you have TF3D installed.
Install AWBPlus.
@guap
yes, i mean landscape.
@paroxsym
are your sure? is this a known problem?
You could start TouchFlo via MortScript.
Last lines should be
Sleep(10000)
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C3","Flags",14)
and the Button gets remapped. I've got this in my Autostart folder.
Sounds complicated ^^
I hope this problem will be fixed in the coming Manila 2 landscape.
you gotta search for hd-tweak...it´s somwhere in the blackstone forum...i got it on my xperia, and it just works find.
softreset included
there´s the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
In the Deveopment/Hacking forum, you can find a fix from me which works without further tweaking tools
I hope the simple trick will be used by the rom cooks in further ROMs, at least Hammamed told me he will use it
I know this has came up before but i am not sure if this is solved.
I download the gyrator and everything is fine. However whenever I lock the phone I can rotate the TF3D screen. Once it is in landscape mode, half of the screen is mess up. Is there any instruction to disable rotation when the phone is locked?
thanks for advice in advance.
Same here , I couldnt find out HOW
I'm not sure even where to begin (please use search as this has been solved like 5 times over; not that it was really a problem to begin with, just an issue). But to save you time this once (SEARCH) here's a couple options.
If you want to keep using Gyrator: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448141 (that itself has two different solutions, one applied to probably what you have done and have auto-rotate everything and then exclude certain things and the other is rotate only things which you want rotated (probably better, definitally safer and less buggy)).
Furthermore you can change from Gyrator to Gsen or ChangeScreen(probably better as it's dumbed down and made really simple but still very effective) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468488&highlight=rotate
Lastly (not really, I just don't feel like typing more) you can change your ROM to Dutty's as it runs on the new manila v3 which allows for landscape rotation (Dutty's is not the only ROM that has it, so once again, you have choices here as well).

You need to set Gyrator so it doesn't rotate in the lock screen, manilla should already be disabled but when the phone is locked manilla is not the foremost app anymore. To do this add a new event above Rotate, Edit the event and call it something like Disable (Lock), set the Application to Dialog, set orentation to portrait, set Actions to Rotate screen. Click apply then Click and hold the new event and set it as Orientation and click apply again. This will also stop your email from auto rotating in message view, but if you go to landscape in the list view you can still work in landscape for email and SMS.

I already did so, thank you. But I really wanted to get manilla working in landscape mode with the standard ROM. I saw it working fine with other cooked ROMs but not with mine. The only way to solve this is to flash with a newer ROM ? Or there is a cab to solve this issue ?
New rom
Hi there, I believe your problem stems from the fact that your version of manila does not support landscape viewing. Having tried a few things with varying success, I flashed to Duttys 2.1 rom and am glad to have done so. It's a far superior experience with hugely improved notifications, faster response times, more storage space free on the HD itself and it also rotates manila without glitching the backgrounds.
I recommend you try it
Actually the dealer told me that I would lose the warranty if I flash the device with non official ROM. Also my ROM is not found on the internet ( 1.14.488.3 WWE )
no current stock rom runs on manila v3 and therefore no stock rom supports landscape. In order to avoid voiding warranty, you can flash the rom using USPL (keeps original SPL) and then before sanding your phone in for w/e reason you simply flash back to original rom (by either backing yours up or chances are it's already posted in the wiki ROM section as they have most of them). If you were to send in the phone with a none stock rom, they may or may not refuse to fix it because technically you have voided the warranty (but if you flash it back to original rom using USPL, then they have no idea)
Hi there,
I just upgraded to a wm6.5 rom with s2u2 preinstalled, so I tried it and am pretty happy not having to search for the unlock button anymore.
I installed the tPRO2 skin and set the same wallpaper as in tf3d, so it looks a bit like part of the system.
I've still got two problems:
I'm used to do multitasking, for example when browsing with Opera I sometimes press the home key and start word mobile or such to look up passwords etc. Usually, I'd be able to switch back to the running opera with the tf3d task list, but on this rom, leaving an application immediately kills it. I made sure it's not just the tf3d task list by looking up the running programs with the wm task manager. When s2u2 kicks in, the running applications are left alone. Does anyone have an idea what causes the programs to be killed?
Second, I'd like s2u2 to only show the unlock bar instead of the tf3d slider. This way, it would look much more like a part of the system - is this possible?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Edit: the rom is NmLs v1.5.1, i just found out this is tf3d2 beta. haven't seen any changes so far, but the rom thread says so.
I am experiencing a rather frustrating problem here. When I change the volume in HTC's audiomanager, it appears a grey column on the left side of the screen (see pic) instead of the green overlay in the middle of the screen as it should be.
What is the problem here and how can I solve this? IMHO, there is a PNG missing. But where do I find that PNG and where should that be stored on my device?
I just found another user with the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5028797&postcount=192
It seems that by installing A_Brians WM6.5 Taskbar gfreek edition, I did change HTCVolumeControl.dll.
I will try to change it back to the original DLL.
OK, I have reinstalled the original DLL from the ROM using SKTools, after changing HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\OverlayUI from 0 to 1 the grey column has disappeared, but the overlay stays also disapeared.
I'm having the same problem. I think it has something to do with the custom taskbar you have installed. I installed a custom taskbar myself and it caused my music volume graphic to disappear too. I beleive it has something to do with HTCVolumeControl.dll which has been changed. I re-installed it but it made no difference. If anyone has a solution to this, it would be much appreciated.
Happy New Year!!
*EDIT* Snap! It looks like you found the problem at exactly the same time I posted this. Spooky!!!! If you find a solution to the problem, please post it here. Thanks.
Well I simply gave up after long horus of REG tweaking and changing files from the ROM and from the internet to get it back.
I hard resetted the Phone yesterday and voila, the volume overlay is back. It's an awfully dirty procedure, because I spent half of the night and a few hours today to get all Programs and Settings back. Unfortunately I had only backed up the whole system (including that overlay problem), so the backup was not very helpful at all.
I remember reading, I think its to do with that taskbar you have installed, I had it and had the same problem, now I dont (hard resetted) and my music bar is sorted
I uninstalled the taskbar. No change.
Then I tried to get HTCVolumeControl.DLL back from ROM, no change.
I treid to install a HTCVolumeControl.DLL from the Internet, no change. Well, there was a change here. I had WM Volume control suddenly. You know, the black and white control bars at the top right corner we all remeber from WM5.
Then I gave up.
hi everyone im trying to uninstall cookies 1.8.5 due to the menu on the home page not workin at all. it highlights when i press it but nothing happens. i cant edit home layout or wallpapers or chteditor itself. it does work from the windows menu but not the the menu tab located at the bottom right of the screen. i was messing with the home layout personalizing it as ive had it since it came out (1.8.5). i had the previous cookies version before and never had a problem (1.7.1, 1.8.0). ive installed a quite a few apps including notification colors and colors for toggle and switches made by dinik that come in the 1.8.5 version of cookies. dont think theres any issues there as ive had them for a while now. i was going to uninstall cookies and reinstall it as im sure it everything would go back to normal again, but i try to and it say "not all of the program could be deleted do you want to remove from programs list?" i press yes but doesnt even erase it from the installed programs list. im stuck dont want to hard reset unless i really have to any advice? also i uninstalled the toggle and switches colors cab and the icons themselves have dissapeared except for the text under it but they do work when i click on them. i have the tmous hd2 with stock rom 2.10.531. thank for any help
I think this was a bug in 1.8.5, for some ROM's , I think there is an updated version, maybe just install over the top both the CHT and the Editor ...
I am not sure of this but I think I read it somewhere if I see it I will post it ...
this is something else i reinstalled cht on top of it and now seems like cht is completely removed besides the editor? that was kind of weird! im goin to reinstall it one more time to see what happens!!
Hi parmakr,
Have you tryed closing HTC Sense before you uninstall Cookie.
Had a problem removing a previous version of Cookie but closed Sense and then went to remove applications and it removed ok. Then just restarted Sense and everything was ok.
Hope this helps.
thanks guys for your help. what i did was reinstalled over the existing cookies 1.8.5 that was already there. i restarted the phone and all of cht was completely removed, how, i have no idea! so i installed it a second time and now everything is the way it should. sounds odd but whatever works i guess. so anyone that cant uninstall cht using the remove programs feature just install cht over the existing one and it should remove it completely, atleast for me it did! install it a second time and you should have it working fine. or take "rutster" advice wich seems the more reasonable way of doing it. would of tried that first but couldnt wait for people to post their advice! thanks though as i will try that next time i have an issue like this one!
Glad
Hey

Hi somebody
I have more or less the same problem: can't remove cookies home tab 1.85 from my HTC Pro 2, 6.5 device. I've read all the posts but nothing is exact the same.
I'have installed CHT 1.85 but it didn't work at all, later I tried to install CHT 2.00, the installation was not succesful because Pro 2 tries to remove CHT 1.85 first which appeared to be impossible. (Senze of, erarse RAM fully). Looks like system got froozen while undeleting. Please help because CHT looks great and very useful.Thanks
