Manila 2.5 QVGA: Development Roll-Call - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello Folks,
So VGA development for Manila 2.5 is underway, I am proposing doing a collaborative effort with the MuttiM team. I think this would be the grandest app for any QVGA device.
So if you have any development skill, please let us all know in here so we can form a team and get Manila 2.5 working on our devices.
Regards,
Paul

I would be willing to optimize the graphics once they become available.
Less ram usage and faster load time. Let me know by PM.
This should be exciting.

Is it really possible to port it to qvga devices? Does this new manila need 3d drivers? I remember, TF3D-QVGA was working on my device, but with white zones where animation/3d acceleration was needed. And standby problem...

I believe Manila 2.5 has no animatons....it's....kinda of a cross between TF3D and Manila 2D, hence 2.5
Paul

Would be really great, because I'm a bit tired of that boring WM6.5 homescreen

sorry to inform, but manila 2.5 is full of animations...every thing you see should be considered an animation element as it can be moved around to whatever place you need...its not a step behind but always a step forward...
since opengl is needed only devices that ran TF3D will be (if its ported) able to run manila 2.5

ps: i have manila 2.5 running (original resolution) on my polaris...

I can port the VGA graphics to QVGA. Want my help?

If someones wants to extract 2.5 from this ROM we can start the porting sooner. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493657

people work on these things, when they have time and there is absolutely no need for requesting...you will get what everyone here is going to

Thanks guys.. This is not album art it is a replacement to the music note key background that comes with S2P.. you can get any background you want as long as its a png or change image to png and you must rename it to pmusic and dimensions are 235*201, and place it into my device/program files/s2p/gfx and replace the current one..
Enjoy and be creative..

[Sept 8th 2008] SilverHawke's TodayLife Skins [UPDATED]

Here are a few new skins for TodayLife that have a SPB MobileShell feel to it. The program is currently under development and is not yet fully functional. These skins are an example of it's flexibility in terms of customization.
TodayLife by dazzlingdaz
All you will need to do is extract the zipped file and copy/paste the folder to your Program Files and run the TodayLife.exe file.
Currently tested on a HTC PPC6800 (Titan). I am unable to show the indicator for voicemail, but I have heard other phones have this ability. If the indicator alignment is off, please let me know and I will try to move it around.
09-08-08 Update:
currently tested using build 275
changed clock to 12 hr format
moved lock into better position to view status icons
added dividers for appointments on the homescreen
changed date format for appointments
changed battery image
changed launcher page
5 action buttons instead of 6
labeled contacts/weather page (still blank for development)
exit button closes the program
Screen shots of build 275:

The theme isn't bad either.
Forgive me for being a step behind but is the UI itself up and running yet or are these skins for its impending release?
The release for version 262 only has function ability for the home and exit screen. All of the other buttons are placers for upcoming developments. You can download his program and run it but as of right now it is limited on what it can do. He is currently working on a build to launch programs. I have not downloaded his current build just yet. Please follow his thread for upcoming updates.
The UI is still in development but going at great speed.

If you are not one for testing, I would just monitor the main TodayLife thread until an official working release. These skins are mainly to show off what the program can do and hopefully gain interest in the program. I'm would say that yes, these skins will have to change according to whatever is added/deleted in the future developments. I hope this has helped answer your question.

A new Manila version?

HTC is working on an update of his famous interface:​
http://udk-lab.blogspot.com/2009/06/quali-novita-ci-attendono-dopo-lestate.html
​
That would be awesome! Hopefully as a VGA version too thistime, cuz the Diamond and Pro are everything else the "outdated"!!
It looks like a version to accompany the wm6.5 update for the Rhodium later this year.
Nice.

Probably it will be produced specially for future devices manufactured by HTC, which will have all (maybe) WVGA resolution...

Click to expand...

Looking at the screenshots, it appears that they have moved on to developing exclusively for WVGA. For example the homescreen has the extra buttons at the bottom to launch favourites, on the TP/Diamond there is not enough room for these links to be visible all the time and you would have to scroll down to see them
Even in devices WVGA so, when there are several appointments displayed in calendar.​
They should make the clock smaller. The homescreen could be so much more efficient, and more customizable like SPB MS3. If you could combine those two you would have awesome software!

It is real, it looks like TF2D more than TF3D.
NRGZ28 published a BETA 6.5 ROM for BlackStone last week with this new manila. But the day after he deleted all the screenshots and download links. I flashed it and used for an half hour, it was not ready for daily use yet. Main feature of new manila is that you can reach all the settings and customizations by manila.

Take a look here (don't know what resolution you're working for)

This is the best UI,why it's not being pursued?

I know many of you use touchflo 3D,with some SPB Mobile Shell.
But I absolutely ditch touchflo 3D first,it's not customizable,that's why I hate it so much,I need a smart UI (user interface) to allow me do whatever I like,for example,remove any icons from the desktop,and add any icons,links,shortcuts,widgets in any place of desktop.
And I will make the background of the desktop clean,crystal,open,sunshine,broad,bright....
This is the ideal UI I am looking for,just like the Window XP or Vista.
Touchflo 3D (or newer version HTC Sense) failed to bring all these amazing things.
Currently I am using SPB Mobile Shell 3.5, it's one million better than touchflo 3D,but it takes me too much time to customize it, for example,you need to remove all unnecessary default shortcuts,widgets from the desktop...in addtion,there are some features I dont think it's practical for users.
One day I saw eXPerience UI devoloped by digitalEXIPIDETION, I think this is the real UI I have been looking for,it's exactly like window XP, but unfortunately digitalEXIPIDETION seems to be closed,I only can download eXPerience for QVGA,nowhere we can find VGA or WVGA.
After painstaking search,I dont think anyone devoloping new version of eXPerience.
Why it's not being pursued? chased?
Does anyone know something about it? I am ready to pay USD50 for eXPerience that are working in HTC Pro2 (WM6.5 rom).

Anyone knows WisBar Advance Desktop is ok for Pro2???
I think THIS is what you are looking for my friend.
Notice it's changed and will require a newer device, such as the HD2 or better to run it. It is 3D graphics accelerated.
Have you checked Infinity out?
http://forum.ageye.de/
It's brand new and still in ALPHA but already it's very usuable and because people can easily write widgets and skins for it, it will be more customizable than Sense and SPB Mobile Shell.

It's a way to do anything in the UI. You make your own UI. Many examples exist and you can make your own, including meters, shortcuts, clocks, agenda, calendar, contacts, etc. etc.
