Hey Guys,
I have an HTC Touch Pro 2 and everything was working fine and all of a sudden I lost the TF3D interface and am now back to the Win MO 6.1 interface. I did a soft reset several times with no luck.
Is there any way of getting it back without doing a hard reset. Would appreciate help on this one.
Thanks

Open your start menu, select "settings". On the first tab, choose "Today"
On the next screen, choose the "items" tab, and then you'll see a checkbox in the list for TouchFLO 3D, just check that, then hit "ok" to exit. When you return to the home screen, you should have TF3D back.
This is the method to turn TF3D on/off when you're doing things like installing cabs that change the look of TF3D in any way.
Touch FLO 3D Back again
Sirphunkee,
Hey, I followed your instructions and my TF3D is back again. Man you saved me because I was considering a hard reset. By the way I did install new cabs for the Home screen.
Thanks a million.
P.S. I had seen that screen once before but never had any need to use. I won't forget this one again.

Glad to help!
Yes, any time you run cabs that change the appearance at all, it's always a good idea to turn TF3D off first, just to make sure there's no issue with the cab accessing files etc that it needs to modify.

Is there a way to manually start the TF3D? Sometimes it takes up to 5 resets to start. Really annoying, since I don't want to hard reset the device...
Hmmm, should start every time if you have it in the today settings.
Check: Start - Settings - Today - Items (bottom of screen) - scroll down to TouchFLO 3D and make sure it is checked. Best to uncheck everything else as TF3D generally conflicts with other today plugins.

Yes, it's there and checked. Nothing else is checked and I have no other today plugins installed.

Hmmm ! Sounds like maybe a manila file is messed up. I guess your best bet is a hard reset.
Alternatively you might try installing a TF3D theme from the forums and see if that fixes it.
Sorry, I can't help much more than that (I've never experienced this problem).

Thank you for taking time and trying to help me!
Perhaps a hard reset would be in place...
Hi,
I'm going to pick up an MDA Vario V this week and after having played with it in the shop, I've decided that the first thing I want to do it is revert to the stock TF3D2 theme. Could someone with a TP2 cab that up for me?
Thanks in advance
Here you go mate. Scroll halfway through te topic.

Disable TF3D. Install CAB. Soft reset. Eneable TF3D.
Careful with this theme - I ended up having to hard reset when the install didn't go well - it prevented my Vodafone Pro2 from booting. May have been a one off, not sure - but back up before giving it a go!
It's worked for me!
I've been looking all day just to change the anoying red vodafone time, works perfect on my Touch Pro 2... With the neon buttons really looking cool now.
Thanks all.
I've had no problems with this theme, but now i see that explorer can't be started anymore. Is there a solution to this problem? As i don't have another file manager installed.
Anyone know how to switch back to the original windows 6.5 start menu? I want to give it a try with touch flo.
I also wouldn't mind being able to do this. I like TouchFlo, but I like the standard Start menu much much better.
Go to settings, all settings, today settings and change it there.

No, we said we want to keep TouchFlo, but go back to the standard 6.5 start menu. Nothing in Today Settings would do that.
same here i also would like to have the classic apps page back for touch flow anyone know how to make this happen?
Touch Flo overrides the standard WM 6.5 interface, you have to select one or the other. Going in to the today settings and selecting Windows Default you can see that it forces to uncheck touch flo.
There could be a reg edit somewhere to disable it... Hopefuly
I am not sure if it works with this phone, but I allays use a cab that was released with the Manila 2.1 VGA ports that disables the HTC Start menu. I will be trying for myself when my phone arrives on Tuesday.
here you go....
verified to work on the imagio.

You sir, are a GOD! This worked perfectly, except when I soft-reset, it started TouchFlo, but just displayed a blank today screen with my background until I hit the start button. But I never shut off my phone, so thanks, this is great!
LOL. i got this back when juicy was making his first manila 2.1 rom.
i think it is actually from xboxmod's original 2.1 port thread.
anyway it works great for me and doesn't cause any problems.
can we customized the touch flo menu? i want to remove the weather & map serach icon.
Switch to Win 6.5 start menu
Works great, thanks alot!!!!!
I was messing with some lockscreen theme and after uninstalling some of them, I found that I can no longer get the WM6.5 lockscreen back
What I have now is the old one where you have to press the unlock button instead of sliding a slider
I have smartlock installed and it couldnt turn the new lockscreen back on either
Is there a registry tweak to re-enable the new lockscreen?
Use regeditor and go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen and change Enable to 1 and that should do it.

You can always go to Settings -> Lock, and the third tab at the bottom is Display. On that tab choose Windows Default and you are good to go.
I am having the exact same problem. I downloaded and installed the Dusk Lock 3.0. It worked fine, but when I uninstalled it, I can't get my 6.5 Lockscreen anymore. I tried kwill's attempt, but it did not work. I also tried sk8mdw's info as well, and that did not work either. I am getting really annoyed that I have lost my ability to use the stock 6.5 lockscreen. Is there ANY advice out there?
As a side note, I have already left a response on the Dusk theme page and have not had any replies yet.

Anybody with any ideas? I would love to have this resolved without having to resort to a hard reset.

This just happened to me also, I didn't have the Dusk simplepin screen graphics.
So I removed it in the process of finding all the cpr files and images for the lock screen.
HKLM/Security/Shell/Lock
Renaming CustomLockScreenMask brought back the original.
CustomLockScreenPath points to \Windows\LockScreen, which has 4 cpr files not on the rom along with 4 cpr files from the Dusk theme.
Renaming this in the registry made no difference.
Now using a simplepin the graphics are different and there are shortcuts for email/contacts on that screen.
I suspect HTC added some custom images/cpr files for the LockScreen but may not have completed it, causing this bug when uninstalling Dusk.
So reinstalling the Dusk theme I now have all the graphics.
You have a folder in windows called Lockscreen, first go to windows and find
LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr
LS_LockScene_800x480.cpr
htc_LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr
htc_LS_LockScene_800x480.cpr
copy and paste each one of these into that folder I mentioned after thats done do a soft reset, that should fix it.

but it didn't works either
I had this same problem and Kaos over at SPJ hooked me up with some file that brought that back. The only thing thats different
Thanks for fix, seemed a little sketchy but worked for me. Running stock 6.5 ROM from Verizon. Will post on the Dusk theme thread about this, because it also reprogrammed my soft keys...
I had the exact same problem. What worked for me took only about 2 minutes to accomplish.

How about configuring CHT to look like the stock home screen? Eg, set only one screen for 9 quicklinks can be configured I think...
In my experience, uninstalling CHT stops Sense from loading. Never an issue for me though as I am upgrading CHT when I do this.
Try read Troubleshooting: at [Manila Mod][19-Jun-2010] Co0kie's Home Tab v1.8.5
Q: After uninstaling CHT, sense doesn't work, or it works but the home menu doesn't come up.
A: Copy \windows\home_pages.xml to \windows\manilaxml\home_pages.xml (overwrite existing file). Then delete \windows\manilafull.xml and soft reset.
Tested and worked
