No one can help you. You have to read, learn and teach yourself, like we ALL have to here....

Hello Oto1,
well, I don't agree with Bruno´s answer. Always someone willing to help.
The only way to add manila 2.5 is flashing a cooked ROM as HTC is not willing to add Manila 2.5 to Topaz stock ROM.
First I recommend you read the thread below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585201
It gives a short look on flashing ROM on your device.
After that, just take a look in the ROM cooking thread, there are lots of 2.5 ROMS available. I like Dutty,s work, all of his ROMs are quick and stable.
Furthermore, just look around and you will learn how to deal with all of this.
Best regards,
Javier.
My advances...
For the moment I have this....
I only tried to improve... and only ask for help...
My wish is to have the direct access like manila 2.5
Hey Guys,
Since Android hasn't finished yet i will not switch over yet, and wait wil switching OS.
instead of that i will use an Theme for the TP2. ( co0kies Home Tab )
i found co0kies home tab theme very great, as i searched for further info i found out that i need Manila 2.5 ( 2.5.1920, 2.5.1921, 2.5.1922, 2.5.2011, 2.5.2012 )
Where can i get this? After many hours of searching i found out that it might already be on the phone, but i dont know what version is on it.
can someone help me with this? Co0kie wrote this to find it out.
To check your Manila version: go to the settings tab in Sense, select "About phone", and then "Software Information".
If you have any problems with this mod please report your full Manila version (e.g. 2.5.xxxxxxxx), the device and ROM you are using.
Where is this tab named "Sence" ?
Can't find it anywhere x'D.
So, do i have Manila ?
If i dont, Where can i get this?
If i do, How can i see what version?
And if i found out what version, What is this tab named "Sence"
Another thing is that if something goes wrong, how can i return to the normal WM 6.5 ( NON - MODDED / THEMED )
Also, Last question.
Do i need to flash my phone for this?
Greetings
If you're still on the stock ROM that came with the phone, then you don't have Sense 2.5
The only way to get sense 2.5 in this case is to flash a rom with it. You should be able to get all the necessary information in the rom development forum
THANKS! i will search for this, very usefull !
Sence is the Bar below right? cause at Settings > More > Today > Items i have "HTC Sence" In the list.. and its checked on..
If i have this "Sence" Where can i get the Manila thing?
I found manila.exe in my File explorer\Windows\manila.exe
How can i see the version of it ?

"Sense" is the entire pretty little graphical interface that you're playing with...the clock, the tabs on the slider, and everything in those tabs, is all the interface that HTC built to go on top of Windows Mobile. HTC has been calling their shell "manilla" for a long time, Sense is just the latest generation of that. There is no "sense tab", and the exact location of where you can see your sense version varies....which carrier's model of TP2 are you using?
However, it's kind of moot...like ctbear said, if you're still running the stock rom, you're not on 2.5 anyway, most likely 2.1, so you'll still need to flash a ROM if you want to use co0kie's home tab
i live in europe, and my carrier is Hi.nl so i dont really know what model im using..
thanks for the information, could you provide me with a link that has the 2.5 rom? i'm so afraid i will choose the wrong one since there are so many around
thanks for the information again!
Hey guys, flashing a ROM isn't the only way to get 2.5 on the phone. I followed the directions in the "Manila Sense 2.5 cab?" thread (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=661941) after a Task29 and a couple of hard resets using the stock TMOUS 6.5 ROM...I have 2.5 running fine with the CAB from post #4 of that thread. I put CHT and CHT Editor on and all is well. It's way easier to use a Energy ROM, but I was having problems with messaging and connectivity so I went back to the stock ROM. As I said, all is well...going on the 3rd day with the setup and haven't had any hiccups. No tinfoil hat phantom usage issues, either.
YMMV, obviously.

If you got the phone from KPN/HI you will have an unlocked TP2 for which you can get the latest Rom on the HTC website. Manillaversie: 2.5.20121225.0 is Sense 2.5. Original Dutch Rom should be 2.07.404.1 NLD.
If you need any more info let me know. You can also send me a Pb in Dutch if that would be easier for you.

In Norway the TP2 is now coming with Sense 2.5 as standard stock ROM.
To the question, slide the slider at the bottom to right(all the way) then you'll be at the settings tab, follow cokie's instructions from there...

You dont need to upgrade your rom to get Sense 2.5...

I myself havnt tried it as I DO flash roms. However, Xhero doesn't seem to know much about anything on this phone... nor to use the search feature... nor how to use google and search "The difference between Manilla and sense" Soooooo I wouldn't recommend flashing a phone just yet to him/her.
Xhero... do your reading.. LOTS of it before you start trying to customize your phone. You dont want to screw it up and then have to come back and start a new thread asking how to hard reset your phone... Please please learn how to search the forums too. The best advice that can be given to a new user. If its too difficult to use that search key in the top right of EVERY page on every thread on XDA then in google search what you are looking for and type "XDA" after it..... ie.. "Manilla 2.5 install cab XDA" or something like that and Bingo Bango you'll be brought to the thread!
A little research and common sense goes a long way. Have fun with your phone and remember to post relevant questions in the appropriate threads and you'll likely get your answers super quick!
I have allready guided him to the correct Romupdate from HTC. Yes there are other ways of getting Sense 2.5 but this is now the easiest way for him to obtain it.
In the Netherlands the TP2 is also now being shipped with Sense as I got mine last Saturday with the new Sense on there.
I have been going through posts and this forum on and off for 2 days and i am just getting more confused.
I currently have manila version 2.5.19211619.0 on my hd2
I want to install a theme that says it is not compatable with manila 2.5.1921
my question is .....
How do i update manila. I don't quite understand what it is.....is it a collection of files or is it one whole file? to change icon sets and that sort of stuff do i just download individual cab files and run them.
I'm very cofused
Manila = htc sense.
The only way to change it is by flashing a ROM that has a different version (usually a custom ROM).
If you have further ROM questions, you'll find everything you need in the ROM section.
Also, make sure you do some searches, all this and much much more has been posted (though I do understand that it's a lot to go through).
And welcome to xda
Thankyou for your reply
Hi!
Im using the rom Besfen released (the wm 6.5 one) which has manila TF2d 1.2
I wanted to upgrade to manila 2d 2.0 but dont know how to. So please help me out here!
there is no way to upgrade your manila unless the ROM has the required dependancies cooked in...but even then you would lose a lot of space on your phone memory while installing 2.0 and might even face inter-compatibility issues...
i suggest flashing a ROMs with manila 2.0 cooked in it...go through the ROM development section to find one that you like...
Hi thanks for the info......well actually i tried finding a good rom with manila 2.0 and was unsuccessful...then i thought, why not wait a little more for karanz new rom (the v8).
If you can suggest any good rom with the new manilla in it or if there is any way to get the flipping clock(the actual flipping one ) somehow because thats all i want from the new manila
i don't think karan's V8 is gonna have manila in it...last i read was that he was planning on releasing a clean ROM coz he wanted to focus on performance and not the looks...
if its a ROM you want then you could try karan's V7 or my own Psychocynicystic ROM coz i felt they performed fairly well...both have manila 2.0...nedalll's rom also has manila but i think it was 1.2...
(and now for a bit of shameless self-publicity)
or you could download my latest Dark Water ROM and install manila 2.0 with nice skin built in from pin12's thread (i've confirmed it to work myself)
and if its only the flipping clock you want...you could download a plugin for titanium but it still isn't as smooth and graphically well presented as having the actual manila flip clock...
ooooh didnt see that your rom also had manila 2.0 :3 gonna try it out now
Hello forum its my 1st post and i have just bought a new htc touch hd and it came with manila 1.3 and i want to get to 2.5 because of al the new stuff you can get can anyone tell me how ive got the .cab on my storage card i just need to flash it to 2.5 an help ????
You can't get new Manila (Sense 2.5) just like that.
You have to flash new ROM...

If you have the manilla cab, you cant install that over sense. either flash to a sense rom, or flash to clean rom then install your cab. i recommend the first.
Also no disrespect to devs, but i find sense 2.5 slow on the touch HD. why not try out 2.1 which was designed for 528mhz. it is very similiar.

As said before me, you cannot change to a new manila by simply using a cab, you need to flash a rom with your desired manila on it. Use the Dummies Guide (sticky at top of forum) for step-by-step guide on how to flash a rom.
Please post further flashing queries in that thread
If you have an further queries, please abide by forum rules and post your queries in General forum forum IF YOU CANNOT FIND YOUR QUERY BY SEARCHING FIRST
