Manilla version and button assignment.

First of all, I just received my new Touch HD last week and I'm looking at the current version of Manilla and ROM. In Settings/About it says:
TouchFLO 3D 1.3.37395.0_1630.38
From which I understand it is running Manilla 1.3? What is the full ROM version? I just don't know how that number is split.
So, it would appear the Manilla is quite old. Is it possible to simply update Manilla on its own?
Is there a newer official HTC ROM with a later version of Manilla?
Is it possible to change the soft button assignments just with Registry tweeks, rather than installing another utility to do it? How?
Thanks.

I bet there is, check htc.com, pick your country and head over to Support.
Latest official roms can be found either on HTC.com or here on XDA.
To update to a newer version of manila you need to flash a rom which has newer version on it. You cannot just update manila as it is embedded into the rom.
I've established that I have the latest version of the official HTC ROM - 1.56 etc, so would I be correct in thinking that it's all just TouchFLO 3D 1.3 from HTC?
Shame I can't just update TF3D:-(
Is it likely HTC will release a new ROM with a later version of TF3D? Are they likely to release a new ROM with WM6.5 some time?
What version of TF3D has the coloured TAB icons?
Is there an explanation anywhere that explains the precise differences between the various versions of TF3D?

Extremely doubtful that you will ever get a stock rom with either manila 2.0+ or wm6.5 for the HD. To get these you need a cooked rom. Why would HTC spend time on this when newer model phones are being released. They want you to pay for it and buy a new phone. Not get it free on an free upgrade.
You are gonna have to use a cooked rom to get what you desire. Read guide in my signature for advice on flashing and post further flashing queries in that thread
Use the search function and search for manila 2.0, 2.1 & 2.5 and you'll see the differences.

Windows Mobile 6.5 & TouchFlo 3D 2.6

When the TD2 gets the windows mobile 6.5 free update will the new TouchFlo be included? Im just wondering if im going to have to update both at different times or will TF3D 2.6 come bundled with WM6.5?
Thanks
I think it will come with 6.5.
i think it probably will come together but i'm hoping not, i want 6.5but i don't want the new touch flo 'cause personally i think it's not as sleek looking as what we've got now
idk i think the colour will be a nice addition to windows mobile 6.5 and will show off the beautiful screen on the TD2
eagerly anticipating this
WinMo 6.5 for Topaz
Hi Forumers,
Can someone guide me to where can I download a ROM for TOPAZ with WinMO 6.5?; Can't wait October to experience WinMo 6.5
Personally I hope they release 6.5 with Manila 2.5 (or whatever the latest one is)
6.5

Hi, I got my Diamond2 3 days ago, flashed about 5 ROMS so far, and Dutty's seems to be the fastest and most stable IMHO
September 19, 2009 05:42 AM Duttys Topaz WM6.5 R2
http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html
This one runs on 23016 build of wm 6.5 and Manilla 2.1
September 18, 2009 02:52 AM Duttys Topaz WM6.5 Leo R1
http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html
This also runs on 23016 build of wm 6.5 BUT Manilla 2.6 Leo skin (VERY COOL INDEED)
I'm currently using WM6.5 R2 of Dutty, cause the Leo with Manilla 2.6 is very slightly sluggish, but very useable. Once you've hard-SPL'd, i'ts very easy to flash a new ROM, so feel free to try both
I recommend udk's rom.
By the way i think TD3D v2.1 will come with the new official 6.5 rom. Not 2.6.

That's my understanding as well.
Isn't the manilla 2.5/2.6 pegged for the new LEO handset?

I hope so... I think it's ugly. How will I get my wallpaper on my home screen the with way they plan to clutter it up?
As has been stated on several forum posts regarding Manilla versions, 2.6 will not run on the Topaz; It is a new build for a different chipset, and is functionally no different to Manilla 2.5
2.5 is available on many ROMs in the Topaz ROMs forum, but I believe that these are rips from devices which already have 2.5 available.
As an opinion, I found 2.5 to be very slow in the custom ROMs I tried. Manilla 2.1 looks almost identical (you can get skins to add colourful icons, if you like that sort of thing) and 2.5 added no additional functionality which I needed.
Dutty's rom is the best i tried...
I tried dutty's rom but i had a problem with iGO. It runs in 640x480 area and another issue it not supports video calls.
Can some one tell what is the new feature of TouchFlo 3D 2.6 ?
Or any URL/Link where I can see the new feature and download if any for update?
Thanks.
I have installed udk's ROM with WM6.5 and Manila 2.5. It runs very smoothly and fast, and it seems quite stable up to now. I haven't checked other WM6.5 Leo ROMs, so I cannot know how udk's compares with them; what I do know, is udk has produced a very good ROM.
For me, there is no question going back to WM6.1 or Manila 2.1. The new combined Windows + TF3D interface is very cool and functional...

I was just about to try udk's rom. So i have a question to you. Have you installed the suggested radio for the rom? I'm still using the original radio. Should i install?
My radio version was already 4.48.25.13, and after installing the ROM it stayed that way. Reception is fine.
Yes i installed the suggested radio. Now its perfect. I had an 3G issue but its solved also. Thanks for the recommendation.

Update manila 2.1 to 2.5/2.6?

Hi Guys,
i have a TP2 with Windows Mobile 6.5 and Manila 2.1. But i would like to make an Update to version 2.5 or 2.6.
Unfortunaly HTC gives not an official update and i need the original rom cause CoPilot
Can someone give me a cab of version 2.5 or 2.6? If it possible in German
Evil_Sadness
srry so far there is no cab to upgrade with. if you want 2.5 you have to use a cooked rom. htc said they will be gettin a 2.1 to 2.5 upgrade just no time line.
I would use a cooked rom, but its realy hard to find a rom where copilot live is already installed or to find a cab of copilot.
There is an release of copilot on the htc site but there comes always a error if i want to download. "your device is not compatible"
thats the problem

You won't find Sense 2.5 in CAB form
However, this ROM has Sense 2.5 and CoPilot:

OR, I've just downloaded CoPilot from the HTC website and placed it here for you:

Hope this helps?
