Run the CAB file and soft reset of your device.
Having this skin, you can choose type and quantity of active functions. You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.x to do it.
This solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:
On/Off Button - for standard Diamond skin
Large Button - for Kaiser or DiamondStyle skins.
Buttons names will be displayed in your language.
In Dimond Style skin you can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.
In Kaiser skin - 10 buttons (from 12).

Many thanks Balu888 and Nemos (4pda.ru) for drawings updated.
Thanks! I never quite liked having to compromise some options and decide which 6 to include in the original Comm Manager.
Now I can have them all!!!!
Many thanks
Thanks. Nice to see all the communication options all at once rather than a limit.
Now all we need is for one of our skinning masters to come up with a more diamond looking interface and this will be really cool.
EDIT: Just noticed there is no option to turn off 3G!
Can this be made a tab in TF3D?
I renewed the graphic files (Look in the preview), but i´m not able, to make a cab out of these files. I don´t have the knowledge in this way. If someone want´s to make this job, i post here the changed graphics. But at 1st it would be good, to get a feedback.
To integrate it in TF3D, you can use the Softkey Changer. With this program you can replace one tab of the homescreen from Programs or else to Comm Manager.
Is it possible to make a 3G button. I use it a lot to save battery.
New idea
Here I have tried to make skin in Diamond CommMamager style .
Having this skin , you can choose type and quantity of active functions from 7 to 10 (12 accessible). You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.2 to do it. Now you don't need to change buttons pictures as in Kaiser CommManager.
BUT I haven't standard icons for buttons InternetSharing and VOIP to finish this work.
Send me, pls... who has...
I´ve got it to run...with some tricks. But i don´t like, that this module don´t recognize, that there are masked .png-files. So all, what should be invisible, is now white. But the functions are okay. It integrates itself into the Comm Manager in the Connection-Tab. But not in the new seperate Comm Manager tab, that´s a problem.
Also there are little graphic errors, which are not in the original graphics.

Really like the concept here. Might need some work on cleaning up the images and maybe adding a little depth. Great work though.
Ive tryed it now. I cant delete it at all. When i try to delete it, and when i try to open the comm manager again, ill get a black screen, with white text from kaisers comm manager

Check the registry keys, for Diamond standard must be:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
SupportedFunctions=6
DisableButtonText=3
For Kaiser:
SupportedFunctions=10
DisableButtonText=2
And soft-reset, of course...
Or use Advanced Config \CommManager: choose your 6 function and On/Off Buttons.

You mean found the solution to delete it and install the original Comm Manager, or found the solution to make it work ? If the answer is the second one, please share it with us !!!!!
This is very nice thank you.
will this replace the existing comms manager? I'd like to have both on my device and remove the new one without problems if I decide.

No, this solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:

in future I want make default skin available in Diamond too.
Diamond Style Comm Manager 10 Button
Drawings are updated - many thanks Nemos (4pda.ru), missing icons are added. But without album orientation.
You can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.
Looks great... just two question :
- only for russian ?
- is it possible to uninstall it and go back to default settings ?
But it would be nice to have more than 6 items on the diamond !

Thank's, but I was looking for comm manager that has Beam and GSM on/off in it! This one doesn't
just a little question and a headsup:
Q: That Comm Manager cab that is posted, does it also contain the new wi-fi settings, bluetooth connect dialog and phone-settings?
(I have mine cooked in so don't need it, but it's nice knowing what it contains and what it doesn't contain).
The other thing:
The HD Weather Tab link that is posted is a link to the version from the Touch HD. The one you asked for in your screenshots is the (newer) one from the Rhodium Manila. I don't if there is a separate tab for yet.

That comm manager looks like it's stock, I even didn,t open the wifi setting neather bluetooth or phone, I unninstaled it becouse it wasn't what I was looking for.
You saying that you have comm manager, that looks like in the screenshot?
With the beam and gsm on it? Maybe you hav a cab and can share it with me?
You are right about the weather tab, it's not like in the screen shot, but does the job for now
But yes, would be nice to get the hands on the new one, from Rhodium Manila!

The detail goes in the on/off switches. The new Comm Manager, you can click on the line 'Wi-Fi', and separately on the on/off switch. Clicking the switch turns it on/off, clicking on the word / text goes to the setting screen.
I have it yeah, but the only _few_ versions I've seen are ment to be cooked in, I never seen a CAB. Kinda the reason why I asked what that cab was that was posted, because it is (or would've been) the first CAB of the new Comm Mananger and setting-screens.
The squished graphics aren't 'fixable'. That screen is ment for a 480x800 device and is just plain resized to fit your 480x640. On the new RhodiumManila VGA port they didn't just resize, but actually modified the layout so it would fit and make more sense on a 480x640 screen, so yeah. it fits and looks better .
Why don't you take a new ROM with all of this in it and working? Because a lot of the new 'toys' out there require a custom ROM with newer build anyway.

For the next time, launch Advanced Config, goto Menu\More Steengs\Comm Manager. You'll be able to select the CommManager style (Big button or ON/OFF button) and the items displayed from the following list (Flight mode, Phone, Bluetooth, Wireless Lan, MS Direct Push, Data Connection, Beam, Ringer, Activsync, VoIP, Internet sharing and 3G)
By the way p.brazauskas, what's the point of getting the beam switch when there's no infrared on a Diamond ? It's totally pointless, isn't it ?

As I read in this forum, Beam manages bluetooth, and when it's turned off it saves power (bluetooth doesn't work if beam is off).
Also why would developers put beam swith in they software, if it was useless?

Is there a way to get more Buttons in the Program tab?
I've tryed to add more button folders in registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher]
But the result is,
there are more buttons, but You can't use them
so is there something else I have to change?
Edit:
Added a Screenshot,
-> thats What I got.
but I can't add programs to the last 3 lines.
Use Manilla 2D Customizer (M2DC)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
You can have a maximum of 5x9 = 45 buttons

Wondering
I added the registry entries to allow for more, this all seemed to work, clicked on a button to add the appropriate new link, comes back, no icon. I go into Diamond TF3D Config and can see that the entries are in there, but TFlow3D wont action or show the icons - very confusing, there must be something we are missing and my Swiss German is sadly lacking - any ideas?

I have adapted the HD 18 buttons Action Screen, with Wifi and Bluetooth status indicator, to the Rhodium bluetooth stack.
All credit goes to Wedge666 (thread here), to posters in his thread for customisation and of course to first Action Screen developper (I would quote him if I knew. Anyone knows? Or was it adapted from a HTC application?).
As in the original from Wedge666, you trigger with Manila Home tab right soft key, and you can configure program to make it running in background if you wish (quicker?). You have no confirmation message on shut down or reset.
You get advice about installation and basic customisation explanation in the HD thread.
Thierry
EDIT : on Roms with Action Screen already installed, it may be difficult to completely uninstall this version. And you need to apply the fix here.
Thanks thierry2064,
Will try it.
Greetings from Lille
You are welcome!
I attach here the version I use now, black and white except for the network status indicator, plain black background. Links to Pocket informant, Opera Mobile, Resco Explorer, Tomtom.. but this is easy to change, as explained in the HD thread. I may personalize it later (the favorite people button is a "heart" game card now).

not showing up
i followed instructions for this by installing mortscript then .net.
nothing showed up on home tab.
the softkeys phone(L) and menu(R) still remain from rom .
im using HTCSense2.5 Landscape|Rhodium_AF|WM65 23529 by ark on my att tilt 2.
so by using total commander i see that it is intalled and the config icon is in start menu and folder in windows.
but how do i make a softkey for this or shortcut or something?
help?
Did you reset ? By the way if you had the cab in the third post (NC for no color), pease do not install, because I forgot some blutooth files... I will upload corrected version later.
help
i soft reset after every step.
action screen works, but i had to find link via total commander.
only action screen config had link in start up menu.
i copied paste action screen link to start up menu via total commander but link was not pretty and i dont know how to change its icon.
also, neither the left or right soft key changed after installation as mentioned in my previous post.
any help is much appreciated.
could it be the rom i am using?
i used the color actionscreen cab
If you feel like to change the registry (take care, if you do some wrong change you could have to hard reset), you can go to HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila
then change HomeRSKPath to \Windows\ActionScreen\LauchAction.exe and HomeRSKText to Action. Afetr reset you should see "Action" on the right low corner of the Home tab of Manila. If it does not work I do not know, maybe you shopuld ask on your Rom thread...
thanks
thanks for your advice.
doing regedit is alil beyond me bcuz i am new to this.
i still appreciate your effort.
Here is the version I use now. I added text, and warnings for Power Off and Reset. Customized to my needs, you have to see explanations in the HD thread to customize it to yours.
Here is a customization tutorial : http://www.techparaiso.com/customiz...how-to-assign-it-as-power-button-application/
I do not use Photoshop, the freeware Paint.net does the basic work. The icons could be nicer, if you make or find some nice icons, please share the background and the icons so that we can use it!
Can you please work on setting the action screen to the power button of TP2 instead? thank you for your great work...

Hi charlieb620
You need to close the Action Screen process manually using a task manager like dotfred's or schap's. You're looking for HTCActionScreen.exe.

when i try to overwrite or uninstall i get this message. i dont want to hard reset but i think i might. cause now my phone freezes when i go to my action screen. and yes i have mortscript and sdk installed. i cant do anything. i get that message. when i kill process i go back to try to uninstall and will just stay there iin programs list
I am wondering if it is not a problem with another version of action screen installed on the Energy ROM. Can you see another one in "remove program" ? Maybe this 18 button action screen is not compatible with the Energy Rom (I have a stock Rom).

Hi charlieb620
Try using Total Commander to rename the extension of HTCActionScreen.exe to .ext or something like that. If it let's you, restart the device and you should be in business.

Sorry To start a New Thread! I have searched and i have tried.. But i Failed
I need to bind the Home buttom key to an App ..and cant fix that
I have tried making the shourtcut for the App in Windows/ (Long_Home.ink)
But that didnt work..
Now when i try to do it in the Setting- more- Private - Keys (Buttoms)
I only have the Long_Send key there to chose from!
I have already assigend that buttom to the Hard Reset, But how do i add more buttoms there ??
you can't add buttons there, and as you found out long home doesn't work.
search for " ae buttons"
Wich buttons do work then ?
cause the Vol buttoms dosent work either !
I only Need 2 ..
1 for Soft Reset
1 for task Mang
Did a search for ae buttons (101) pages of result ..!
Shouldn't that be "Personal", not "Private"...I came in here expecting a discussion on public key cryptography...

only the send key can use long_press.lnk as far as i know.
