Hello guys. I have improved a lot in terms of understanding your language but I still need some help.
I understand that Manila 2.5 roms won't do well with landscape because this is as designed so I am trying to find a ROM that fits this:
- Close buton at bottom interface (is this WM 6.5.1 thing)
- Manila 2.1 / Sense 2.5 / 2.1 - I already know what manila is but I am still trying to understand what Sense is. Since it shows at the Home screen configuration I assume its the HTC interface but if Sense is the interface, what's Manila?
- Twitter integration.
Do we have a ROM that fits those needs? The 2.5 Manila ones aren't good for me because I need the landscape and the 2.1 I've tested doesn't have the nice weather video at home screen nor the Twitter integration...

I'm pretty sure that "Sense" is just the new name for "TouchFlo 3D" at version 2.5. "Manila" is the internal codename of the software, i.e. name of the program that runs, registry keys etc.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong ! So the Terms Manila and Sense are interchangeable really - Manila 2.5 is now called Sense.

2.1 does have weather animation in the home tab...and it runs considerably smoother on rhodium than 2.5 especially when you use your custom background + weather animation
As for twitter tab....its probably not possible to integrate into 2.1....but you can always use 3rd party app
2.1 only recently got the animated weather clock, It showed up the same time It transitioned form Touchflo3d to Sense.
Energy rom "AKEO" is cooked from the new com4 builds your looking for with the buttons at the bottom, and has the Sense package in it. There are others as well I'm sure.

Hi
I have flashed WM 6.5 to my TP2 and i was bored with the old Manila Icons so i created this and decided to share with you all.
I`ve made two cabs so you can chose which once you want to use.
- polystirenman Manila WM 6.5 Icons.cab - Will install only manila icons.those you can see on today screen
- Manila WM6.5 Manila Icons People.cab - Will install additional icons to All People Tabs
i`ve also made a cab which will get rid of ugly top courtain in manila and one which will change Notifications Highlights In calendar tab from grey to better visible green.
Install:
Disable TF3D from settings-personal-today
Soft Reset (to make sure manila is not runing)
Install cabs
Reenable TF3D
that should do the trick
i hope you will enjoy this small tweaks.
sorry for my bad english.

I just have one question, do your cabs also work with WM 6.1 specifically the T-Mobile stock version ?
They look great by the way
Thanks...

Am I right in assuming you want to mix tabs from Manila 2.1 and 2.5?
I don't think that's possible!
I also really hate the 6.5 Start menu, but what I do like in M2.5 is using the 16-shortcuts cab (its in themes and accessories forum, sorry off to work or would post link), which means that when you pull 'up' on the Manilla homepage you get 16 shortcuts, four to a line (e.g. very similar to 2.1's program list). You might find that useful. (I think Manilla 2.5's default of 3 shortcuts per line on the homepage is very ugly)
sad... well i think i'll go back to a rom with win6.1 and manila 2.1
Is it possible to get the (old) contact page from Manille 2.1 into Manilla 2.5?
I really don't like the contacts presented in pictures, I really like the vertical sliding in Manilla 2.1 but I DO like the rest of Manilla 2.5 so I don't want to go back to the old one.
thanks!
I 2nd that question. Contacts in Manila 2.1 is way better specialy that you can select the contact and chose what to do with it n 2.1 and not just click and it dials like in 2.5.
I sure hope someone replies to this really important and valid question.
Hi All,
I am using WinMO 6.5.3 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629652. This comes with Manila 2.5 on WinMo 6.5.3. Earlier I could see my Calender events/Appointments on my home screen for today (I think it could show upto 3 events on home page when using Manila 2.1). But in Manila 2.5 there is no space where it could be shown.
Is there any way we can achive this?
Edit:
Also listing Missed Call on Home Screen.
Please see Post# 2 and 3 for Solutions
Thanks,
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633590 it will give you up to 5 upcoming appointments on Sense (Manila) 2.5.

Hi Mitsi, Thanks for the wonderful link. This looks promissing, I will give a try .
Update:
I have just installed "Co0kie's Home Tab" from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625483 and it is a great Appl for Manila 2.5 and runs smoothly on TD2 as well.
Also the default settings are great and suited for me . Now my mobile have every thing as SBPMobileShell MINUS the Flip Animations (http://www.spb.com/products/mobileshell/). I think TouchXperience will be MUCH better one
Even the settings can be changed/modified using "CHTEditor" link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633590 given by you .
I am currently working on porting the Sense 2.5 home tab to Sense 2.1. My aim is to make Sense 2.1 home tab look like Sense 2.5. I don't plan including the program quick links but just make the calendar and call log box look like Sense 2.5. Also replace weather animations from 2.5. If anyone wants to help the cause, let me know. I will be posting my progress even though my LUA knowledge is limited. Thanks.
