Footprints tab to install - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

Hi Guys
I use a stock rom with manila 2.5 on my TP2 and it does not contain Footprints tab, which i find very useful. I found a link to files for it extracted from HD2
"rapidshare.com/files/367420188/Manila_Footprints_2_5_20111529_0__Leo_.rar". Unfortunately, simple copying to Windows folder and importing of registry data did not lead to tab appearance.
Could you guys help to either create a cab file or advise how to install it correctly?
Thanks

Wow, so many smart people are on this site and nobody can answer??

Footprint Tab
I dont have seen a Tab cab for the Rhodium. I try the package OEM tab from a HD2. Unfortunatly with no result.
I know there is a mortscript version but i dont try that one yet,

try this
i had 2 luck but i'm using the 6.5 stock rom

A .rar file is a compressed archive. You need to uncompress it before copying to your phone. Google WinRAR for such a program.

Footprint Tab
I have now also the one with the mortscript
I can try to use this in our kitchen.
But will try this cabfile first

Thank you guys for advice, I tried the cab file from your link, but unfortunately despite being installed very smoothly, no tab is added. I wonder why it happens, since I use several wonderful tabs, as Facebook, GPS tracker, Today, Call history, Programs made here on xda, but Footprint seems to be doomed for me.
I will be grateful if any additional advice can be given.

You have to edit "26948339_manila" to add the following code in there for footprints to show up.
Code:
<Page Order="9" Name="footprints.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_FOOTPRINTS_TITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\Footprints\footprints.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true"/>
<ComponentReference Name="icon_normal" Mode9Path="HTC\Manila\Footprints_icons.mode9" Component="Footprints_Off"/>
<ComponentReference Name="icon_selected" Mode9Path="HTC\Manila\Footprints_icons.mode9" Component="Footprints_On"/>
<ComponentReference Name="icon_preview" Mode9Path="HTC\Manila\Footprints_icons.mode9" Component="Footprints_Preview"/>
</Page>
Make sure you change the page order to match what you have in you ROM.
Also ensure this reg key is correct as well
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Manila://footprints.page.hidden"=dword:0

Well, I edited 26948339_manila, modified the key in registry, nothing happend. I even did hard reset started everything over, but it does not work. A green icon of footprint appeared in Startmenu, when I pushed it just slightly blincked and returned me to the Home screen.
Well, I gave up. Perhaps it realy does not work on Stock Rom with Manila 2.520121225.0.
Thanks for help.

Open 26948339_manila under \Windows and add the following code in. I don't have access to the file now so I cannot tell u where to add the code. Try downloading the file above your post to see where the code was added in.
Code:
<SimpleDialog Name="MessagesGizmoResponse_Forward.dialog" PackageName="HTC">
<ComponentReference Name="dialogItem" Mode9Path="HTC\simpledialog.mode9" Component="SimpleDialog" SmartComponent="true" />

The only safe way to enable any Manila mod that is dependant on modified code in 26948339_manila, without compromising other menu options in TouchFlo, is to restore your 26948339_manila file back to the default and manually edit the XML in this file.

How do I edit default News, Sport, and Download links in Browser tab?

You can see my attached picture of my browser tab.
1. How can I edit the links you see for News, Sport, and Downloads?
I found the registry entry to edit the default home link for when you tap on the picture of the globe to start Opera. I was able to change that but I can't find the other ones.
2. Also, can I change the text that says "o2 Internet-to-Go" directly below the globe?

I think it displays whatever you have in your Opera bookmark. To change it, simply edit your bookmark in Opera browser.

Nope, editing the bookmarks doesn't seem to help - I definitively don't have any sports-related bookmarks left. Maybe some file in the Opera directory (\windows\Opera9\)?

To change the URL for the globe picture, go to the registry:
HKLM\Software\Opera\Defaults
There you can tap on "HomePageURI" and enter the URL you want.
You can also enter a URL for "DefaultURI" but I'm not sure what that does yet.
I'm still looking for a way to edit the News, Sports, and Downloads links and also how to change the text below the globe. If anyone knows, please help.
tf3dconfig can for sure unblock branded apps in "programs", i don't remember exactely how i did it on mine for browser, but think the same way
EDIT: no, here how (in italian)
Since you are german, you should modify the file InternetPortal-de-DE.xml under \Windows
inside the xml you can also change the browser text

Thanks! I'll take a look at it right now. I'll let you know how it goes.
Hmm, well I tried it, but it did not work.
I found the file you mentioned in the Windows folder.
I opened it in my computer (with notepad) and made the changes.
Then I replaced the file (overwriting) into the Windows folder.
I did a soft reset and nothing changed. But if I look at the xml file in the Windows folder, my changes are still there!
Any ideas?
Here is the original data:
Code:

hmmm... I've done that way, with this cab
http://rs419.rapidshare.com/files/165035271/No_TIM_v0.1.cab
as you see inside the cab, the replaced files are "internet.lnk" and the "internetportal", no more...

okay, let me see if that cab helps.
EDIT: Well, I don't really know how to edit the files in that cab so that they apply to the german file (DE) and not the Italian one (IT) and also to edit my desired links in the setup.xml file. Can anyone give me any tips?
Man, I feel I am so close to finally being able to do it, but it's just not working for me.
EDIT 2: I'll attach a copy of the cab so it remains here for the future in case someone wants to check it out.
maybe you have some more references in application data\htc

In that folder, I only have 4 other folders (AudioManager_Eng; databases; HTC ALBUM; ygo) and none of them contain anything that would appear to help. Other than that, there is nothing in that folder (no hidden files or anything).
Found. Copy and overwrite this manila file to windows\
I've included your modified xml. It's a text file, so if you want you can always update/change it with notepad.

Oh man - it still didn't do it. I pasted it into windows\ did restarted TFL3D and nothing happened. I did a soft reset and still no change. I'm sure you have to be so close to figuring it out.
You know, I just thought of something. I installed the cab to have 15 tabs in TFL3D. Do you think that is stopping it from working? I don't see why it would.
Thanks so much for your help. I hope we can figure it out.
I'll try uninstalling the 15-tab cab and see what happens.
EDIT::::::
Unfortunately it still does not change anything. I uninstalled the 15-tab cab, did a soft reset, pasted again the file you sent (overwriting what was in the Windows folder) and the browser tab still has not changed. I wonder what the problem is.
Now I notice that when I stop or restart the TFL3D it gives me a "device.exe" error (send to Microsoft or don't send). I press don't send and everything continues fine. Anyway, I don't mind trying things out. I can always do a hard-reset if things get messed up. I'd really like it if we could solve this.
Last try, but if also this one doesn't work, your rom is haunted
try installing this theme, translucent & blue: it also have modifications on internet tab...

Nope, that did not do it either. It's a nice theme, but my Browser tab looks just like it always has. Man, I wonder why my phone is not allowing that to change. Do you need a cooked ROM? Mine is stock. I might try a hard reset and after that retry the things you suggested.
Seriously - thank you for all your help! If anything else comes to mind, let me know. In the mean time I'll keep looking to see how I can change that. As soon as it works, I'll post back here.
I wonder if I should try a cooked ROM. I've never done anything like that before, so I'm a bit nervous to do it. Well, I did flash my old Motorola v550, but this seems like a bigger task. I'll have to read the wiki to learn about SPL and ROMs and all that. That topic is completely new to me.
Really, don't know... My rom is branded, and i succeeded in unbranding the web tab at first attempt...
Well, I just did a hard reset and tried all the options again. Nothing changed. I wonder what is blocking it.
My ROM is 1.14.207.2 (24011) GER
I guess o2 did something so that you cannot change that. The strange thing is that I am able to overwrite the files in Windows. If I look at them on my PC, they show my information. So, I don't know why it is not working.
I might have to put a different ROM on there or just live with the slight branding links in that browser tab.
Thanks again for your help.
maybe...
what have you inside 26948339_manila?
are there references to the internet tab?
you should have only
Code:
<Page Order="7" Name="internet.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_INTERNETPORTALTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\internetportal.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true" />
at the beginning, and nothing more in the rest of the file. If instead you have other web references there, maybe the trick is there
There is a ton of information in that file, but I searched in notepad and the only place the word "internet" appears is in this section here:
Code:
<Page Order="4" Name="internet.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_INTERNETPORTALTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\internetportal.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_normal" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_Off" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_selected" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_On" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_preview" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_Preview" />
</Page>
The word "o2" does not appear in that file.

XML Coding help

I am working on my new Raphael kitchen and having a small problem. I have two options. One for my custom icons that get placed in the program folder or sub folders from there. The other is for the default icons.
First thing I want to do with the XML coding that will be in a cab is to delete some shortcuts when the cab is run.
Is this the correct setup for deleting files
Code:
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="\Path\to\Target File.ext" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Delete">
<parm name="ForceDelete"/>
The other setup would be to move files. Would anyone be kind enough if you know how, to show me how to move files with XML coding?
Thanks. I would search around but spent countless hours working on the kitchen and just looking to see if someone was willing to lend a hand.
I know how to create CABs and all that...just looking for some help with the XML coding.
Thanks in advance!

thanks for the reply but i'm hoping to do this via registration @ OS install rather than through software post wm6.5 setups...
any one else able to create a reg to implement it?
i can not belive
nobody willing to help you
you can fix it yourself !!!
if you just used the "search button"
for bug correcting
1. correct the bug
2. open an reg editor
3. save the key that you need as name.reg
4. add it to your kitchen
also you can add metadata folder to sys
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile]
@="JPEG Image"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\DefaultIcon]
@="\windows\HTCAlbum.exe,-300"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\Shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\Shell\Open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\Shell\Open\Command]
@="\windows\HTCAlbum.exe "%1""
this is the patch for you
fo the same for all picture extensions
or you can just edit
Album_3_2_19193429_0\files\mxipupdate_MASD_zzzHTCAlbum_RegKey.provxml
<characteristic type="HKCR\jpegimage\DefaultIcon" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="" datatype="string" value="HTCAlbum.exe,-300" translation="filesystem"/>
</characteristic>
to
<characteristic type="HKCR\3gpfile\DefaultIcon" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="" datatype="string" value="HTCAlbum.exe,-300" translation="filesystem"/>
</characteristic>
all this with just an simple search
i did search here and in google all wkend...
tried first method with the reg editing still not working...
will try the 2nd method tomorrow when i have some time...
htc album often has a provxml that fixes the file associations for album. find the packages from mega and edit the provxml to be pimg instead of album. provxml gets installed at first boot without the need for auto run. that would be the sure way to fix your problem.
i'll check the provxml file when i get home (will comment the fields out)
thing even if i dont install HTC album the files arent associated...
and i recall the provxml file already 'trying' to add associate to htc (obviously not working) as when i added it to enrivus kitchen the software works but as mentioned above no link in file explorer / titanium pictures.
thanks for the help

[SOLVED] editing office 2010 icon

I have managed to change all the folder icons in the start menu to custom icons except Office mobile 2010.
I have fixed the issue. Thanks to AndrewSH and Poyensa for pointing me in the right direction!
What I forgot to meniton is I am using OS 21913 wich comes with Office 2007. I removed it and upgraded to 2010.
As AndrewSH rightly said the mxipinit_startmenu_001.provxml controls the icons and over rights any reg files that are used. I found the the prov file had an incorrect entry in the start menu. It was pointing to Office Mobile instead of Office Mobile 2010. I updated the following code.
Code:
<characteristic type="Office Mobile 2010">
<parm name="Group" value="1" datatype="boolean" />
<parm name="Rank" value="900000788" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="Icon" value="\Windows\Start_Icon_Office.png" datatype="string" />
I then used Poyensa's idea of renaming the PNG files to suit. Thanks again for all your help guys!
GhostXSeries, file icon.lnk just defines how office folder looks in file explorer - a small office pictogram (like icons inside executables - calculator for example)
The icon for Start Menu (png file which you are trying to change for custom) is defined in mxipinit_startmenu_001.provxml
Code:
<characteristic type="Office Mobile">
<parm name="Group" value="1" datatype="boolean" />
<parm name="Rank" value="900000788" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="Icon" value="\Windows\Start_Icon_Office.png" datatype="string" />
Just to explain - you can not change icon name to ghostbla-bla-bla modifying rgu (or reg) because provxmls are processed AFTER rgu in cooking process. That means - first your setup rgu (or reg) file is processed and your icon is set up, then it's overwritten by provxml and you again have the default meaning in the registry.
Modify your provxml, or name your custom icon like original one and replace in the kitchen.
hi GhostX, why dont you just rename your ghst_office.png as Start_Icon_Office.png? attaching my silver icons as EXT package, just as example ....
Thanks for the reply guys. I did as you suggested and changed the icon names, but it hasn't worked. The Office start menu icon is a standard folder icon and the games icon is also wrong.
I did manage to change the settings icon as you can see in the picture.
I have attached my icons ext package to let you see what I am trying to do.
EDIT: Tried again and got games folder working with new icon, but Office folder is not.
EDIT 2: I replaced the icon.lnk file in the Office Mobole 2010 and it has changed the icon back to the standard office 2010 icon. See below. This icon is differnt to the Start_Icon_Office.png. It seems to be the office 2003 icon not 2010.
EDIT 3: Fixed it! I edited the registery from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\office mobile] to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\office mobile 2010] and it worked!! Now I just need to figure out how to edit it in my kitchen build!!!!
