complete newbie - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi guys,
I am a complete newbie and I have downloaded a nice Clock which I want to replace on my device. Can you please tell me how to do it?
It has lots of files with "_manila". How can I install it?
Thanks for your help

Welcome to the forums, you just have to copy the manila files to your Windows folder and accept yes when asked to overwrite the files.

hi, am also a newbie, what do the folders with _manila stand for? i just got my diamond, what's the very first thing i should do so that i can modify anything? do i need to download the hotfixes from the htc website? thanks a lot!

The hotfixes are only to fix something that's not working properly on your phone.
In many cases, like my own, they're not needed, so don't worry about them.
If you want to edit your TouchFLO 3D, you can get the Manila Customizer from here (thanks Grumps). For a beginner, like yourself, I'd say that's pretty much all you need, but when you get more experienced and want to change things yourself, you can get the Manila Editor from here (thanks sushilange) or the CFC GUI from here (thanks Chainfire).
But like I said; you probably only need the Manila Customizer for now. It's very easy to "break" your TouchFLO 3D if you don't know what to do or how it works.

The esiest way to change clocks and all that stuff with manila files is manila customizer, u can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437420
i use it on my diamond with TF3D2 and it works just great to install/replace manila files

How can I change the TF3D Tab Icons?

Hi guys.
Til now I managed to change the wallpaper in all Tabs and the icons in the topbar.
Right now I am looking for a way to change the Tab Icons on the Touch HD. I know it is possible cos I saw already some pics in the forum. But does anyone know how to do that or does anyone have a cab file ready to do that?
Hope there are nice iconsets out already.
Thanks in advance!

You should do as in Diamond!
Look this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2784137#post2784137
search for manila editor on this forum
download that
copy all the .manila files from the windows folder on to to a local folder on your computer
run manila editor, provide the source of your manila files then extract them as png, and then edit the tabs you need to change
But all you really need to do is read the instructions from the manila editor thread on this forum.
I mean on the diamond there are cabs for the original (11tab?) version and the 13 and 14 tab versions. Should this be a problem to use them on a HD (whihc has also 11tab in the original rom)?

Great post! Beautiful theme. Can you post just the tray icon files or even a .cab? your instructions are very simple I just don't use/need TF3D config. (I've encountered problems with it in the past). I'm running the stock rom with the old animated manila files over the top (could possibly be the cause of my problems but in a give and take between the two, i take animations). Thanks in advance

There's one cab within the archive file you downloaded, which will restore the font back to original. All the info are in the readme file .
Just remove the "\windows\welcomehead.192.png"

Just remove the file "\windows\welcomehead.192.png". Or, create your own Welcome file. Do a google for keyword "welcomehead.192.png" and you should be able to find link to readme on how to create this file.
From my vague knowledge on the ROM image, the original "welcomehead.192.png" shall get reinstate once you remove the money box one follow by a soft reset.
how to remove T-Mobile name. my network is not Tmobile
Where can i find the fonts used in this theme (manilla and windows fonts) ???

What ROM are you running? It would be the manila version native to your ROM.

That ROM came stock with manila 2.1, not sure what the build# is though
So my Manila Bruce, probably is the 2.1..
Right?
Yes, it would have to be.
Once again Bruce Inman, thanks.
I have oyher question, and sorry if it's a silly one but I really don't know the solution!
I looked for Manila 2.1 themes, and it was difficult to find some of them, but i found one that it was nice ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563451 ), i downloaded the "Boost Manila 2.1.zip ", installed the .cab file but and nothing! I mean, it wasn't at the Today opcion in the Settings tab..
I don't know what am I doing wrong, if the file that I downloaded was not the best one, if it's not correct one for my HTC..
Sorry for bad english!
Thanks for the help

First, the file you downloaded was for the Diamond, not the TD2, therefore it is incompatable.
Second, go here to post 5. These are the different versions of the Manila theme. There are many because each new build of Manila tweaks the home layout, so they are always slightly different.
Lastly, remember Max Manila is a Manila theme, not a windows theme, so next you need to find a windows theme if you want to. I use Dusk themes because I like the black bars. Dusk themes are ROM build dependent so look for your build number, if you don't see it, use the newest build available. This is the one that loads to your Today Settings and you must select it to display. There are also Dusk Clocks and Taskbar icons in that thread as well.
If you scoll through the Topaz Themes and Apps threads, you will find more themes and most will have full instructions on how to install.
Good Luck.

Thanks for the help, for all the time you expended.
I'm scared now, when i started to look for themes, i never thought that could be so dificult!
I'll try!

Max manila does not work for 2017, 2018 & 2019 version. I think it works for 2016 version if I remember correct.
Latest MaxSense can be found here...

Has anyone ever modded Sense/Manila with all the tabs enabled?
I am getting an HTC Leo (1024 Tmo) and I would like to have Sense/Manila with all the tabs enabled.
I did this for manila 2.0 for my QVGA (Tmo Wing) by enabling the tabs in the HTCHome xml and adding the correct images, etc...
But when I was unpackaging the latest Leo image I see that all the manila files are labled "0b1b17c3_manila."
And I don't see an xml file to edit.
I'm a bit confused as to what you're asking. If you're talking about simply cooking in the regedits for enablement/disablement of tabs on boot up, then it's:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Manila://home.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://internet.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://twitter.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://music.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://settings.page.hidden"=dword:00000000

"Manila://inforwidget.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://tv.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://calendar.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://weather.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://peopleCallHistory.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://email.page.hidden"=dword:00000000

"Manila://people.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://footprints.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
"Manila://facebook.page.hidden"=dword:00000000
I'm pretty sure you already know that though. Are you looking for Sense tab packages? I feel like you would already know where to get those as well, which brings me back to being confused as to what you're asking.

Yes. Thank you. That is what I was looking for. To be honest I didn't know about the registry values. I only know what I did use from cooking for QVGA devices.
(I gave you thanks as well )
Can you point me in the right direction (link-wise) to cook Sense into my ROMs?
My ultimate goal would be to have the latest Sense version with all the tabs enabled for my HD2 (1024).

[Q] Manila: editing 22e41977_manila (home layout) to see more calendar entries

Hi All,
I searched a lot but could not find a solution, so here's what I want to do: Manually editing the 22e41977_manila file to remove the RSS reader (allready done this one) and use the newly available space to display the next two calendar entries instead of just one. I know that CHT can do that but CHT slows my device down alot. So I want to edit the homescreen by my self and cook it in the ROM.
A similar question has been asked a while ago here, but with no really helpful answer.
AFAIK CHT also edits the responsible Manila file so some one allready needs to know that Do you guys have any hints?
I am using the latest (2021/2) Manila from OBOE BTW...Thanks alot already!
Hey mate,
I too tried to work on this and asked similar question here.
But with no luck/help yet .
It will be good if we can have this working.
BTW: Default Manila home does display one entry from calender but only if that is NOT FULL Day appointment .
Thanks.
Sounds like your best bet would be to ask in the CHT thread. A lot of the people involved in that project are more than willing explain how certain aspects of the mod are accomplished. They have helped me in out in areas like this. Just a thought
Another Idea that just popped up in my mind: How about using the plain manila we have now, install CHT and modify the home layout according to this. Now backing up the respective manila file(s?) and uninstalling CHT. Afterwards replacing the manila file in the ROM or the kitchen. Could that work? Thoughts?

Manila files used in CHT are very complicated and tightly coupled so we cant use part of those files .
We can try to look into the files (responsible for this task) of CHT and figure that out... but that is not easy .
Thanks.
