Not sure if someone's already posted this here but if anybody wishes to have the new look HTC home as in the Niki Project ROM v1.0 and other WM6.1 ROM's without having to flash WM6.1 then install the attached cab!
Enjoy!
N.B. this only changes the appearance of htc home to the new look, it's NOT a new version of HTC home plugin! You can un-install this if you wish to go back to the old look.
thanks for sharing!
Cool
Hmmm, I have the Niki ROM installed but don't have this Home Screen option, if i try to install it comes up with an error message.

When you say you have Niki ROM, do you mean you have tom's excellent Niki Project v1.0 WM6.1? if that's the case you don't need to install this cab however, if on the other hand you have original Orange stock ROM then try disabling the htc home from today item settings and then install this cab, it should work! this cab is only meant for WM6 ROM's not WM6.1
This install fine on the stock T-Mobile ROM (remove it from the Today screen first) but to be honest I prefer the look of the original.

Hhmmm!!! strange that you have tom's Nike Project v1.0 WM6.1 ROM and yet you're saying the HTC Home plugin doesn't appear like this one?? I know when had tom's ROM installed on my device it had the new look HTC Home.
Have you posted this issue in his ROM thread? maybe you can get some answers there.
Think i've figured it out, are you referring to the clock/email section (normal HTC Home) as I was referring to the Icons/Shortcuts you have below it (near the soft keys links) ...
I like it !!!! Thx for share
It's nice to see that my HTC Home Plugin skin is being appreciated and spread across the forums.
It's not a new look from WM6.1 though, I made it a while ago (back in my Prophet days)...
It's just a pity that sometimes, someone else's work is shared without the proper credits...
I've instaled that file and when i've removed it.
Now i can't change the nothing with the htc home costumizer.
Nicely Done! Thanx XDA
Hi
I have been searching around for some experience on Manila 2d on the Nike. But I always have to read a lot just to know a little. And still i'm not sure.
1. Is it possible to install Manila 2d on Nike? And will it work on the "original" 6.1 windows?
2. Is it working fine?
3. If it works fine - is there a special way to install all the manila cabs or is there a "how to" somewhere?
1. yes
2. also working fine
3. just tap the cabs in file manager, its not much work really
I'd just add to make sure you follow herg's instructions on the order you install stuff.

The current Lilly ROM has it built in, ie once you flash the new ROM, it comes up with M2D fully installed. A couple of minor bugs in it, but nothing major.
You can also install the various cabs (all nine of them) from the main M2D thread. Those from version 19 onwards have been stable and functional.
Thank you for all (and very fast) responses.
I will try a little more then

Do you have a link to the page you are talking about?
Is it still necessary to disable the cube and biotouc.exe? And howto?
If you are installing the M2D cabs, you;ll need to disable biotouch.exe. Programs such as sktools (Google it, download and install a demo version, use it, then unload it when all is done) can do it.
The whole M2D comes in 9 cabs files:
1) Enhancement - Install
2) AudioManager - Install
3) FSP, Dshow, WMP, YouTube, Video Fixes - optional if you don't use the net.
4) Album - Install
5) Task Maner - Install
6) Google Maps - optional
7) HTC Opera - optional
8) YouTube - optional
9) M2D - Needed.
Most will ask for reset, but that can wait until you install everything you need.
So nice!
It works!
I did not manage to kill biotouch.exe with the SKtools. But then I found: http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm. That worked.
Then another question: Is it possible to get the today-screen to show headings from the calendar? And is it possible to edit the layout of the manila interface?

You sure? I have downloaded that , and it only had HTC today in it, not Manilla 2D. You'll need a custom ROM or a set of cabs.

PROBLEM: There is NO softkeys on my manila 2d! I have tried to use Customizer, but it will not save the settings for the softkeys. What is wrong?
No problems here, but I'm also using a custom ROM (own). From previous testing with the cabs, the softkey customiser works. Direct it to use the links in folder Windows/Appbuttons and see what happens.
hello everyone , i'm noob for this manilla 2D theme and ROM cooking.
i've been using Spb MS2.1 for about 2 months and i'd like to use manilla 2d theme on my Nike.
can i use manilla 2D theme without cooking my Nike rom?
AFAIK, we need 20 MB free memory to instal manilla 2D
thnx for your advice
I installed M2D on my original 6.1 windows. But I had to make a hard-reset, because something went wrong. And because my softkeys did not work I really don't want to install it for a while... maybe it will work next time..?

Have used WWE 6.1 ROM, with HTC Today, Manilla 2D V20, and SPB 2.1.2 installed toether. Just need to select whichever one you want from the the Today icon in settings.
Like I said, I'm currently using custom ROMS - and have cooked one with just M2D, one with just SPB 2.1.2 in it. Testing it and will released it once I'm happy about its performance. Just one annoyance to get rid of...!
For those who are ineterested, I've posted the ROM.
Make sure you have HardSPL 1.22 and a radio greater than 1.64

update 23/10/2009 - current project state is in this post
original post:
I've build new ROM based on latest WM6.1 build and packages from HTC Mega
There were some problems with new HCT Album 3, Manila2d 2 and EzInput 2, and I didn't update them.
I use Manila 1.20 and Iolite versions of Album and EzInput.
All other packages are updated.
If someone needs this ROM, I will upload it.
Screenshots:
EzInput 2 will work if you replace the touch.dll in OEMDRIVERS with that from MEGA OEMDRIVERS folder
HTC Album will work if you replace the files ha_skin_l.xml and ha_skin_p.xml in .........\OEM\Iolite_MEGA\0409\ExtraFilesPkg with these from manila album package(in building these from the above folder which are for iolite's album version ovewrite these from mega)
And manila should work, what doesn't work in your build?
dancer_69: What did you mean by replacing files for HTCAlbum3? I have to overwrite _ha_skin_l.xml and _ha_skin_p.xml in OEM\Iolite\0409\ExtraFilesPkg with ha_skin_l.xml and ha_skin_p.xml from MEGA package?
Yes.
In this folder are these 2 xml files from Iolite's album version. When you build the rom, some how these files overwrite these in mega's album package folder. So the rom have the old version of these files and for this the album doesn' t function right.
So, you need to replace them with the newer version.
Hi, Server222,
Please upload a ROM if you have some satisfied one.
BTW, did you make Footprint work with M2D. Footprint is the spirit of Polite, we should not leave it.
Thanks.
Wang
Sorry, but there were problems with g-light and I reverted my ROM to Iolite packages.
Another problem was - YouTube search button is inactive (maybe because this is beta).
EzInput 2 works, but I cannot choose other keyboards. There is workaround on this forum, but it still has some disadvantages.
I don't like HTC Menu as it cannot be configured to exclude some apps. (I use Finger menu).
I just can say - almost all MEGA packages released by Da_G works not only with wm6.5 but with w6.1 (build 21054)
The main hack you should do - do not include PACKAGE_MEGA_HTCScroll, it depends on wm6.5.
Add HTCScroll.dll and HTCScroll2.dll to your ROM (search this thread more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541750&highlight=scroll, for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4242024&postcount=241)
I don't want use unstable/beta software in my ROM.
(but I can help with setting up Ervius kitchen for such ROM, if someone wants to try this).

I have exactly the same opinion. I was playing with Mega packages on WM6.1 for almost three weeks, but it brings more problems that benefits. And until oficial WM6.5 is released, I will not cook WM6.5 ROM for Iolite.
In contrast, I am focusing on optimalization of last Iolite official ROM. This means removing all unneeded stuff from OEM, SYS and EXT including file editing.

That´s absolutely right! My opinion too! I find a good working old app better as a glitching new app.

I'm finishing ROM upgrade to wm6.1 build 21055.
I solved g-light issue with Mega packages.
Just want to test it more.
I'll be back this week and bring you new ROM =)
I can't wait for it, don't want wm6.5 anymore
I downloaded final Mega packages, and I'm going to continue this project.
Almost all works, even Manila2 with flipping clocks and location based weather on home screen.
Now I have 4 issues, not so important to me, but
maybe someone here can help me:
1. Manila2 has soft key "All settings" - it doesn't work in WM6.1
2. Manila2 has "Wallpaper" item on Settings tab - it allows me to restore default wallpaper, and do nothing if wallpaper is not changed (I still can change it if I go to Settings -> Today.
3. Mega Album 3 is not working - it starts wait for a second and exit.
Iolite Album 2.5 works fine
4. Mega YouTube 2.6 works, but buttons at the bottom of the screen don't work. No search, no favorites... It looks to me it can work, I saw it was working, but then I added some packages and it is broken now.
Iolite Youtube 1.6 works fine.
5. All custom words in XT9 My Words List disappear after Soft Reset...
I'm updating my last ROM, so all features as XDA_UC will be included.
I loaded official HTC Mega Russian ROM on my Iolite this weekend, tested it and ...
... And I'm back to WM6.1 21055 =)
I didn't like WM65.
Maybe I just too old and don't want new stuff (but I upgraded my PC to Win7 64-bits and it's the best OS I know for today).
Maybe WM65 build 21854 is too close to WM6.1 21055 and I should try latest releases...
OK, I'm ready to release this ROM. Latest WM6.1 + Mega Ext packages.
It's based on my last released ROM, but it includes fresh HTC GUI.
Beside new WM6.5 start menu (stupid endless scrolling of million icons) this ROM looks almost like MEGA.
I run latest Manila 2.0.1919.1432, latest Camera software, latest EzInput, latest PhoneCanvas.
So, before uploading this I want to ask what programs I can remove, and what do you think I should include into the ROM.
As for me - I don't want HTC programs at all. I use another programs.
I removed
AdobePDF_2_5_1_0_378273_04H
FOOTCAM_1_11_33557_0
Footprints_1_0_19112229_7
FootPrintsVE_1_0_18223925_0
Java_JblendPackage_2_1_2_1_20090619_2_1

NaviPanel_1_00_18212231_04
RSSHub_2_1_1_1101_RP_MEGA_02
Streaming_Media_3_1_19183421_00
VoiceRecorder_1_10_18192131_6
YouTube_1_6_18222927_00
also I removed this programs from Windows
AUTOUPDATE
Catalog
Entertainment
Office - it couldn't even search fot text...
OneNote
Transcriber
WelcomeCenter
WindowsLive
I feel fine running ROM without all this programs.
So, tell me what is important to you.
I am happy with the firmware you made last week
Anyway I agree with you on removing the above programs.
BTW, what does autoupdate do anyway, it never ever updated anything on any of my PDAs....

I decided to release first 21055 ROM with Iolite packages as them are stable and tested with our device.
At the same time I want to have "something new" and there is why I'm making this new ROM. So in case something goes wrong - we can just use first ROM.

It should be supported by OEM ROM maker. And looks like nobody wants use it.
Read more here.
new EzInput 2.1 issue found:
All custom words in XT9 My Words List disappear after Soft Reset.
Description: EzInput 2.1 adds my new words to My Words list and suggests them while I'm typing. I can use "XT9 My Words" program to edit this list.
But if I reset my device this list is empty again.
Who knows how to fix it?
Serfer,
Can you include a newer PIE in your ROM?
That's the only thing that I feel a little regret with your stable and fast ROM. And there's no way to upgrade PIE if not cooked into ROM.
For xt9 issue, maybe you can try older package of et9 and ezinput. Just remove the 'all settings' from the softkey since it does not work on wm61.
Tx n bst rgz.

You can also try to rename the settings.exe (Posted here)to htcSettingsEntry.exe and put it into Windows folder.
Winmo 6.5.5 - 23563. My version 1.03.
Original themes and apps.
Full. Only removed GPS COPILOT.
I've fixed the original phone dialer, so no unwanted scroll bar at the right of the dialer, however no need to copy or handle phcanrc.
Replaced TaskManager with MMTaskManager so no superposition of icon and date in the upper right corner of the home screen.

Thank you for feedback.
Edit:
To use MMTaskManager : (thanks fktsndr) After you flash the rom, go to the program files directory of your device, go in the MMtaskManager directory, open that program, tap Menu, tap Settings, select Load On Startup, Enable Taskbar Launch, Run In Background. Tap Done and OK. Soft reset! From now you can tap the left top of the screen to launch MMTaskManager.
