Background: All of the flip clocks posted to date use a modified version of the Manila file "1c684cd8_manila"... this is also used in other mods... such as "Background on all Tabs", "Remove Carrier Logo", etc... and none were modified from the TP2 original... therfore... all lost certain functionality...
Look at the screens posted... none show as many items listed on the Home page as there were with the stock TP2!!!
I have modified the TP2 file to enable the Flip Clock already available in the TP2...
and NO LOSS of functionality!!!
BEWARE... any mods that over-write "1c684cd8_manila" after this install... will render your Home page unusable...
Tested with Verizon on a TP2... may work with other carriers...
Enjoy!
Just copy the files in the zip to the Windows folder of your TP2... cab is in next post... thanks to all!!! cool!
Here is the cab posted from PPC.
And I just tried it and it works perfect.
I have been looking for this since I got the Verizon TP2 so thank you.
i have verizon .. i have a sweet flip clock with out the color square..
but my home screen doesnt work...
is there one for verzion that will work ,, you guys post up with white background.. i want one with clear background.

know this: if i ever get to heaven i'm putting in a good word for you!
Woot! Awesome work! I'd been looking for one that worked properly on the VZW TP2.
Thanks!
P.S. A transparent clock would be nice as well
All my themes will be fully compatable with all carriers without modification of any mode 9 manila files and there is a background on all tabs done the correct non hacked way... and a different one that fits correctly in landscape mode it also does not use cfc compression so no need to have a patched manilla.exe to use my themes they are in one cab file change everything images are compressed even futher then cfc is capable of so the themes run faster then anything else out. This is no small feat as sprint, tmobile, and Verizon all made changes to the TF3D interface to have themes work on all... well... I bet I'm the first ;O) custom animated bootscreens start sounds and full interface.. keyboards and dialer is fully skinned. check them out on youtube PROBEX- TF7X, Naughty By Nature, and Ladies First themes. Pocketnow .com has also done videos on them. These will be available with in the next 2 weeks. ) tested and working so far on Sprint- Verizon- t-mobile- gsm euro version and telus.
The voda phone version of the TP2 will work for the TF7X theme as well as the Ladies First theme but due to the fact I don't mess with the stock manila mode9 or lua files the text remains black so Vodaphone users running stock will not be able to use the Naughty By Nature theme as the text will be unreadable.
Does this have a negative impact on "Missed calls"?
So does this work on the T-mobile TP2? If not, can someone point me in the right direction to get the white flip clock?
Hot dang it worked! Confirmed this works on T-mobile TP2!!! LOVE IT! Thanks!
sauber! eh - fantastic!!!
IT WORKS
confirmed worked on a sprint TP2 with a custom theme. very nice ty ty ty!!!
hey everyone! i got a question lol..
i decided to go with the tmobile 6.5 and was wondering is there way to have the the animated weather on the home screen? like in the newer sense
Hello
Yes,it is possible,of course.
I do not know about Tmobile ROMs though,but about HTC custom ROMs I do know.
You just need to install custom,official HTC WM6.5 ROM,and you will have everything on it...animated weather especially looks great.
You know the procedure of flashing? If you do not,go to ROM section,this is not a thread for it.
yes i know how to flash..
been coming here since my touch pro1 but i recently flashed to the tmobile rom just too check out the new upadate to 6.5..so i need the official htc rom instead?
You need to run a rom that specifically has the Sense 2.1 (notice SENSE and not just regular 2.1) or a rom that runs manilla 2.5. Either of those has the weather background you are talking about.
The problem is that T-Mobile changes the default wallpaper to something other than the animated weather wallpaper. I am looking for a way to enable the animated weather wallpaper on the TMOUS ROM and will post back if i find anything.

You can try this way. Pick a T-Mobile wallpaper you want. Use HDWall to make a cab from that wallpaper. Install the cab file and soft reset.
From what I can tell, T-Mobile replaced the animated weather wallpaper with some T-Mobile.png for the default wallpaper. Can anyone upload the animated weather wallpaper from the EU ROM or similar?
HTC Sense
Well guys,
I am reading all these posts,and I just wanted to give you all a small advice...
I realize that most of you guys live in the USA or Canada,and I can understand why do you want TMobile ROM that much.
However,I highly recommend official,stock HTC WM 6.5 ROM,because it has all the stuff we need.
Our friend asked for weather animated screen. So,if you really want that,install the ROM I mentioned and enjoy. No hacks,no registry editing,no nothing. Just flash and enjoy.
Besides,it has a lot of functions you will like a lot. ( And you will get a real,Windows Mobile 6.5 look..........
Best regards from Serbia.
well the official ROM is nice because then we don't have to load cabs for the keyboard and MMS fixes. As well as cabs for the my account, VVM, and myfaves if you happen to use it. I did run the EU ROM for a couple months until I found something better and it was great. But I do not need the animated weather wallpaper bad enough to prefer to install all the extra cabs i would need to make my phone work for me.
If you could go into your phone and attach the animated wallpaper then we could load it onto our phones as the default wallpaper and it would make life much happier
Animated Weather aka HTC Sense
@Zylograth
Well,I am really willing to help you guys,but maybe you know the following:
Animated Weather is highly complicated program,which is not consisted of animated wallpapers only. It changes according to weather...if it is rainy,small drops are all over the phones screen,if it is snowy,snowflakes are all around...if it is sunny,sunlight is all over the place..it is the most beautiful today screen I have ever seen.
However,I will try to figure something out. So far,I know it takes about 25 MB of RAM...can you imagine how big that .CAB file would be,when it takes about 25 MB of RAM? I need to find a way to extract it from my ROM and make it usable,(if it is possible at the first place,but I doubt)
Yeah, I am not too worried about it, though it would be nice to have. If I decide that I cannot live without it I will go back to the EU ROM, but for the time being I am happy with the TMOUS ROM lol

Thanks to El Daddy, weather animations are as simple as using HD walls and the hack below (old HD walls cabs made in winmo 6.1 work, too)
Awesome!

I just used a HD walls cab and made 2 reg edits.
HKCU/software/htc/manila/
delete the value for CashedBackgroundPath and HomeBackgroundPath. That should work!

Dear M2D developers,
Is it possible to have a version of M2D with the ability to supprt animated background / gif image etc?
I have read somewhere that we can use other today plugins alongwith M2D with the help of a cab posted somewhere in this forum. I tried to use "GIF today" plugin but that didnt work
It Would be real cool if the GIF support is integrated within the M2D itself.
Dunno really, just an Idea that seems to be quite achievable with kind of experties you guys have

No responces!
Is it not that appealing or it is not that easy??
Or is it something else that I dont know?
Experts' comments will be very heart whelming though.
in two months I think it's possiblehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpwtGal76ko&feature=player_embedded---------------------but no with manila
Searching for those strings wont result in any finds, or results in only custom ROM crap. (sigh)
Ok, im trying to find some stuff for Manila 2.1 WITHOUT SENSE. it just doesnt seem to exist... or at least i cant find it.
I want to know what tabs are included with the 15 Tabs mod, and where to get them.
I would like the stock TP1 Neon slider icons, saw a guy on XDA that had them, but cant find the files.
You made me laugh Manilla 2.1 WITHOUT SENSE does NOT excist. Manilla = Sense...
Manilla 2.1 is called sense.
Manilla 2.5 is called sense.
Wow, really? Then your an idiot too! TP1's have Manila 2.0 and WinMo 6.1, TP2 has Manila 2.1 (no Sense) and WinMo 6.1 stock....
SOME versions of 6.1 come with Sense, but not Sprint, and i believe 2.5 Sense comes with WinMo 6.5...
Talon,
Try searching for Manila TF3D v. 2.1
(Which Lenny, is not the same thing as Sense 2.1)

dont be so rude dude, htc has renamed manila to sense. so its sense 2.1 and 2.5
Hold ur fire!! This make me a little confused too. So what's real difference between Manila & Sense??
Both posters are correct. TF3D originally was called manilla. HTC Sense is technically the upgraded version of TF3D. Most people simply refer to HTC's GUI as Sense instead of manilla or TF3D.
Since many of the roms here are from HTC hero,hd2 etc etc, they are using the newer Sense GUI.
Original roms, use the manilla GUI, which was been re-marketed also as Sense. So manilla/TF3D was renamed Sense 2.1. Sense 2.5 is the original Sense which was first on the HD2 and HTC Hero.
This will help some.

Using any numbers in the search (simple or advanced) gains only an error, which is why i posted. Try searching for '15 tabs' and itll go to the advanced search page with 'No results'...

I disagree a little, there IS a difference between Manila 2.1 and 2.1 w/Sense. Try putting a Sense item on regular 2.1 and watch it break. I tried PPCgeeks.com to sort out the TP2 stuff, got much support, but they didnt do anything about it. When you ask for customized stuff, everyone assumes youre using a cooked version of 6.5 (which has Sense 2.1 or 2.5 depending the ROM/Chef), not 6.1, and then the Manila version gets even more in the way of stuff.
I mean i like my TP2, it works like the TP1 should have, but the TP1 had so much more support for the stock ROM's and 6.1.

For the neon slider icons, try either or both of the cabs I attached here, they might be what you're thinking of. If not, they uninstall easily.
I've also had trouble finding a bunch of TF3D 2.1 compatible sliders etc, it's clear that the bulk of the interest and efforts here now are sense 2.5-related. I think you might have a little better luck googling (not through XDA) for "TF3D 2.1" than "sense 2.1"...I've found that most of the stuff you're looking for to be tagged that way.
brent372 has put together a website that does a great job of explaining and displaying the differences between TF3D 2.1 and Sense 2.1, and he has a fair amount of customizations for each, particularly sliders/icons...check it out HERE

Yea ive seen Brents work, but its all 'skinned' stock icons, or the goofy looking 6.5 icons. Still nice stuff though.

Did either of the neon sliders end up being the one you're looking for?
Since you're running TF3D 2.1, you can easily build your own sliders using HDWalls, and you can use just about any images you want for the icons...the app does a great job of resizing them as needed and building a cab to install the whole slider for you.

Yes it was the one i wanted. Now im looking for a taskbar of the same lol. I didnt know that HDWalls was a program, thought it was just a 'image on all tabs' thing.
Thanks.
How come none of the stock Icon sets i can find, dont have the Navigation icon? The Neon set above has a 'layered' one, meaning it sets it over top the grey icon (off center though).
Oh, and the HDWalls is working nicely, got two icons done so far

Navigation Icon? I don't have a 'navigation' tab on my 6.1, so I'm guessing that it's not part of the regular set of tabs and therefore there's not a provision for it in the usual list of manila files for the icons.
If you (or somebody) can just pin down the exact name of the manila file for that specfic tab's icons, you can use HDWalls to create one (for a different tab), and then just rename it to match the odd manila file related to the nav. tab. Let me know if that makes sense...I can do it better than I can describe it lol
I have the Touch Pro2 which still has TF3D 2.1 (non-sense lol).
How do i go about locating it? I know the files are in the Windows folder, but how to view them? Guess ill do some google searching too.
I also want the comm manager tab and the programs tab back, that was on the TP1...
Try CFC GUI and make your icons: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470798
Have never heard of a navigation tab though, but if exists, you'll be able to find it with CFC GUI
hey there
first i am sorry if this posting is against the forum rules, i do hope that it is not however.
here is my idea:
The Toch HD seems to be running much faster without any wallpaper. E.g. when the background of Manila is just black an there is no wallpaper at all, it scrolls more fluently.
so, is there any way to completely disable all the wallpapers in manila 2.5? in my case, i got the energy rom which sets wallpapers for all tabs by default, can i disable this?
i think we would get a nice performance boost.
regards, burobernd
p.s: no just taking a black picture file wont do the trick ..
x2
is there a cab to disable the wallpaper in home screen of Sense 2.5?

Hello, do you mean when you use the standard wallpaper of manila?
I've one Idea. You could use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511
With this programm you integrate a custom Wallpaper in Manila like its the standard wallpaper. So the wallpaper is a Manila file and not a jpg oder so...
Hope it helps

not using standard wallpaper nor installing cab created with HDWall, just remove all wallpapers in registry HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila, it would be obviously faster within manila 2.5.
Yes right but i have something to say... where are we going ? We need more and more Speed and often we want thinks from our Blackstone that he just CANT handle LOL my point is okay we can do many things for faster Manila so now we will remove all wallpapers and the phone will be with blank black screen ok.. so also we can CFC edit the manila images to make them alot more light but of course this will cause they to be not the best quality and the manila will be even faster.. then if we want we even can remove totaly some of the tabs and the Manila wil be more faster.. and alot other tweaks like this.. But my question is What we doing exactly? To be honest i prefer my device to be more slow but to look good and i to feel good when im playing with it.. so you spend alot of money for this device and on the final you even can`t have a wallpapr? LOL if someone need so Much Speed can buy Leo or Nexus One witch i think is the better choice right now..
We can make many many tweaks to have faster Interface but we will lose the quality and the beauty of that Interface
tsalta, this is a very interesting thought you have.
however, i see it differently: with all those shortcuts and weather icon and stuff on the homescreen, i think there are already enough (maybe even too much) items on it.
so, effectively, when setting a colorful wallpapers, the screen gets all messy which i dont like at all: no wallpaper at all allows me to have the clean and professional look i want to have, and yield a little bit of speed.
it is true that we should not pretend to have a leo with a 1ghz processor in it, so manila 2.5 might be a questionable choice. but, as it happens, the majority does want it on their phones, and then so be it. if they prefer a wallpaperless manila 2.5 to a wallpapered manila 2.1, that's legit!
and one last thing: i for my part didn't chose manila 2.5 because of the fancy homescreen but because of the many tiny fixes and enhancements in all the other tabs.
but as i said, you are right if you say that some roms are just loaded with fancy stuff that might run well on a leo, but not on our blackstone.
cheers
Yes yes it's just personal preference for speed or for eye candy. That's why many people are still using winmo 6.1 and many people are using energy's ROM. Thanks for the chefs here we get plenty of choices to balance our need
Actually it's kinda out of topic in the ROM development forum
