When I was using Dutty's v3.9 XT it had nice big menus, when you click left or right-soft key (e.g. Contacts).
Now with Laurentius v3.55 I do not have this feature
I know that FingerSuite exists, but it does not look that nice.
Is there any cab to install to have big menus ?
Any suggestions ? Come on, guys

Hi,
I've installed Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB on top of Sundreams ROM.
This ROM rocks and it very fast on my BA with apps installed. OCed the BA using XCPUScalar.
However I've got a problem with the adding Programs shortcuts in TouchFlo (launcher tab). After selecting the program, the form closes and no program is added to the shortcut. The + remains a +. Anyone experienced this problem?. Is there a way to add the shortcuts manually in a configuration file?.
Also where can I configure TouchFlo settings?
Also the front screen calendar is too basic for my taste. I used SPB diary. How can I use a more advanced calendar with TouchFlo (shows 5 days or more)?.
Thanks to all ROM contributors. Any insights appreciated.
Customize it using this one:

make sure you installed all the Xplode CABS before the manila to have it working
This is from my own experience I am sure some experts can help more.
Update
Thanks for the reply.
I have installed the following cabs:
HTCAlbum-2.5QVGA.cab
Aku1.4 Sounds.cab
Aku1.4 welcomehead.cab
HTC htcStartMenu.cab
HTC Enchansements.cab
HTC TaskManager 2.1.34837.5
HTCFlashLite.cab
HTC AudioManager.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
To which cabs are you actually refering to?. Am I missing something?.
Well as regards to the launcher, I have added the applications manually via registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Launcher, however the application do not run when clicked on. Icons appear as a 'blank icon' rather than '+'

Any ideas?
As far as the calendar, no one seems to have been able to use a different calendar as of yet. Having said that, there is one alternative that I am using right now (with which I am pretty happy). There is a program in the Dev and Hacking section that is called Manila Control
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447504&highlight=manila+control
This will allow you to switch back and forth between Manila and Today (just set up an Up-Down gesture with FTouchFlo Config). You can then put any Today plugin that you want (ie SPB Calendar) and just switch to it when you need to see your calendar. Hope this helps you on that end.
Now, as far as the cabs, you should install the following cabs:
HTC_Enchansements.cab
HTC AudioManager_2.0_1819.1228.cab
GoogleMaps_compressed.cab
HTC_Task_Manager_2.1_34837.5.cab
HTC_Album2.0_1818.3032.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
FSP, DShow, WMP, Youtube, Video Fixes.cab
These are the ones that I have on my device and I have not had any issues with speed or anything like that. Hope this helps!
Thanks for feedback. I have managed to find a workaround via registry. I did'nt add the "uptime" key before. Once added the icons are functional and show up.
Hello,
Is there any way (cab....) to have context menu and start menu (grid) on my diamond like the menus seen on diamond2?
Thanks..
no one can help me?
I too woul like this - I have searched and searched, did find icons and now have all my icons in programs tab changed to new manila version but would really like the menu like new diamond ( ie........instead of dropdown start menu the all programs appear like the diamond2 ) help is appreciated.
AFAIK it requires a few different things... have you looked at the Gen.Y rom? it's basically a TD2 rom for the TD

Hi guys,
I'm currently using the Gen.Y D2 R3 ROM by yozgatg ( WM6.1, great ROM, highly recommended), and I've just installed the MyAction app by noiserobert (also a great iPhone-themed app).
MyAction works beautifully, but it's still a program launcher app, meaning I have to first get into 'Start', click the 'MyAction' icon to finally get into the program.
It would be optimal if the 6.1 Start Menu (or 6.5 for the matter) was rendered as beautifully as 'MyAction', as the Start Menu is basically a program launcher.
Hence this thread.
Thanks to everyone for their great work
so maybe you should try a wm 6.5 rom. there the startmenu displays large icons in a scroll-list.
yozgatg's ROM, while WM6.1 has the icons displays somewhat like WM6.5 (except not hexagonally). Perhaps I wasn't clear in my original post. I am of the opinion that the iPhone layout still looks better, hence noiserobert's application.
Search for a program called StartButton - I think the latest release was 0.2, it allows you to map your Start button to something else in WM6.1
hello! i hope i'm the first who opened a thread about this:
i don't want to use a taskmanager at top right because there already exists a X-button at the bottom right. but when i use this button, the tasks just run in background and won't close completely... my question is now:
is there any taskmanager for wm 6.5.x which integrates in the bottom taskbar to fully close tasks with the stock X-button? or is there maybe a tweak like bsb where i can change this setting?
thx in advance!

AMeBa can do this, and more. (make sure you install all three cabs that are attached to the first post)
Happy closing
In HTC Task Manager (V. 2.1 Build 1918.3631), there is the option of "Enable the"X" button to end running programs" either by tapping "X" or tapping + holding "X". Not sure whether this works on ALL programs though.

Unfortunately that task manager doesn't run on windows mobile 6.5.x (bottom-bar WM) .
This one does. It doesn't close application by tapping on the x button, but by tap-and-hold the clock in the new windows mobile version.
XTask DO the job !!!
I'm using Xtask, especially XHook.exe, to close all my apps, and it works like a charm.
No installation, it's only an exe, run as service after each reset, do no eat memory.
I've remapped my Close/OK button to XHook.exe (with AEButtonPlus), and now I REALLY close apps.
thank you for your replies. i already discovered xtask and it works fine!
Maybe, it's better set to 'OK Key' (in AE Button plus) command 'Close active application'
I like everything about this ROM and plan to upgrade from the Sept 3rd to Oct 3rd this weekend.
I would like to know about the zoombar and scrolling thru messages from the main screen.
On other builds, I could do this if i was at msg 15, zoombar back to 1 real quick instead of flick flick flick.
Can you maybe fix this and cook into your final copy.
I dont know how many people dont use ms voice command as its one of the first to load for my bt headset and hearing messaging in my ear.
Maybe the concensus could be to cook or not cook it in.
Everything else works beautiful compared to other ROM's i have tried and I also commend you on your work.
I will be changing the battery icon myself as its very hard to read the percentage at a glance.
Thank you for all you do.

If you could read, you would see that I am asking about the zoombar function to be fixed.
Also I would like to use VLingo but it requires a dedicated button to set during configuration and the PPT is not there under the settings/personal/buttons.
I mapped the button using the Ameba settings to Voice command but Vlingo still doesnt work.
OK, this might sound stupid but could anybody point me to ROM's with bottom Start softkey? Most chef cooked their ROM's with top Start softkey. And no fancy icons and taskbar, please. Thanks.

What you are looking for are 23xxx builds, Energy ROMs have those builds, they are 6.5.x builds , the 21xxx builds are 6.5 builds
6.5 = Start Menu Top Left
6.5.x = Start Menu Bottom Left
i'm afraid Energy doesn't meet my fancy as it doesn't have htc messaging. but nice info there.
