[MOD][19/01] Kamil's mini-mods - currently: 3 - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

Hi,
I'm starting this thread to have a place to publish all my small mods, mainly for Manila. This is also a good place to request some small tweaks, so write what you want to change and I'll see what I can do.

How about a mod for the Sense 2.1 clock to have no frames/outline and be clear background?

No problem, updated the first post.

I like the look of the clean clock.
I'm using it conjunction with the Black sense homepage you have kindly created and a personal background and can still see a semi transparent box around the clock which I think is part of the weather bit.
I'll try and work out how to grab a screen and post it so you can see what I mean...

A screenshot would be great, I recommend Shake&Save.

Hi Kamil,
I have Manila 2.0.37889.1 with some mods to some Manila files so my homescreen looks like the attached.
Are you able to help me highlight the details of the appointments please? The times/dates of each appointment are very clear and easy to read, but the appointments themselves are not so easy to read. Can you brighten up the font for this part please? Would you need one of my Manila files to do this?
Also, I like your changes to the messaging tab as this seems much clearer. Would this work on my Manila?
Thanks very much and great work Kamil!

To change the font color on the home tab I need you to send me the file 1c684cd8_manila from your Windows folder (it may be hidden).
The Messaging tab didn't change so much since Manila 2.0, so I guess it should work. You can give it a try and if it does not work uninstall it and send me 47dd6acd_manila which is in the Windows folder too.

Thanks for the tip. Handy bit of software.
Here's the screenshot.

Hi Kamil,
I hope I'm not being too cheeky, but can I make another request please?
You can see on my contacts tab that I have a nice red slider. However, on my email tab there is no slider between the two email accounts. Can you make me a slider please? I tried to find the correct Manila file to edit it but cannot find it at all...
Also, my background is the same as yours - black with a dark grey circle in the middle getting darker and merging in with the black getting further away from its centre. You can see this in my messages tab. How can I make this just plain all black? I have tried all manner of background for all tabs and also tried editing the right Manila file myself, but can't get this to work at all... Any ideas for this?
I would appreciate any help here!
Thanks

It's beyond my possibilities to add a bladelist in the e-mail tab, sorry I can tell you that for Sense 2.1 there's a mod - ported Sense 2.5 e-mail tab with a bladelist. You can check it out, the e-mail tab doesn't differ a lot between Sense 2.1 and Manila 2.0.
How about this mod - did it work? It should, I used it some time ago.

I tried out that version. I think that because I have modded my homescreen so much that this somehow interfers with the background for all tabs. The one you have shown doesn't work when I add 4 appointments to the homescreen (instead of 3).... Strange.....
Thanks anyway.

Hi Kamil, I'm afraid your messaging tab mod to improve the clarity does not work with my Manila (2.0.37889.1). It has no effect.

mitsi, please upload the file I've mentioned earlier and I'll change the font. In the attachment you'll find a cab which changes the appointment subject font color to white.
Lakota, please try the attached cab, I hope it works.

Hi Kamil, thanks for that. I have tried it, but there is no difference. Perhaps it is not the font colour but the size? Also, I don't understand the part "please upload the file I've mentioned earlier and I'll change the font". Do you mean your cab for the Messeges tab? I tried that but there was no effect either...

Actually I was quiet prepared that it can not work I don't know why but the font used for the appoinments doesn't allow to change the color. I've changed the font to a different one, it should work now.
I meant the 47dd6acd_manila file, it's the Messaging tab. Upload it and I'll change the font to a clearer one.

I thought that perhaps you had changed the font colour on the homepage, but somehow my background overlaps the homepage. See the attached screenshot which I have changed to a red background and the text now appears pink...
Here is my manila file for the Messaging tab. Many thanks for your help Kamil!

Absolutely spot on! Many thanks once again.

mitsi, it seems to me that there's some opacity set for the text - I'll look into that tomorrow.

Now u can change the icons inside the folders as well.
Thanks a lot to Twolf for the icon
Feedbacks and Donations are my inspiration.
Gratulation, work fine on HD.
Great idea. Would be good to be able to change the order of entries as well.
Gratulation, work fine on HD. but also create a new folder in start menu. There already is an original icon.In new folder does not give the new icon.
Looks great, will try it, thank you.
Your probably not taking request for now, but here are a few future ideas....
- Icon themes. ^_^
- Change icons order: Changes the values from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\*\Rank
- Save/load icons order: Backups the full regkey from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\StartInfo
- Change the icon's size: Changes the StartMenu_GridScene_***x***.cpr XML or overwrites the Windows .CPR pre-stored in the app's folder.
- Change the star menu columns number: The same as above.
My contribution:
Only did 29 icons, wont do the hundreds of others for other softwares, hehehe, sorry about that.
Included a 200x200 px and 45x45 px pngs, also the original FLA where I made them, it opens with flash CS3.
Enjoy.
Congrats again on this great software, if you need a Icon for it, let me know.
That's creepy, I had just started work on a very similar application last night, but fortunately you've approached it differently than I have, so I doubt our projects will clash.
Hope you don't mind, but I might 'borrow' some of the suggestions you've got for start menu ordering. Themes could be done by simply saving the values in all of the registry entries in a simple XML file. (Remember nested folders, which it doesn't look like HComber can handle right now)
Might take me a couple of days to complete mine, it's not even got a real name yet...
Out of interest, which language have you written HComber in?
Very nice found!
Works pretty nice for a alpha release...
Twols: Awesome Icons! Hope you'll make some more for all the usual WM6.5 stuff
thanks mushipkw for your god work...and twolf for your fantastic icons....my samsung i780 have a great menu now...
awesome stuff mushi. no more flashing roms just to get the pretty icons thanks for icons too twolf! and is it just me, but when icons are put into folders, say i move album into multimedia, i loose the actual icon. it reverts to the old style icon. not necessarily related to the app. i think just 6.5 in general. although, if i copy the icon back into the folder from start menu, it will get the new style icon to display. just weird i thought

[APP]Titanium Quick Launcher new version

maybe it's wrong to lable this as an APP anyway this adds a program launcher tab to the titanium.
you'll need to edit it with Chome editor found elsewhere on this forum or with a reg editor.
This cab has 9 pages and is set up for what I use in my roms for diamond and polaris.
The cab is for qvga and vga only but anyone should feel free to edit my cab and upload if they like.
it will install to program files/gullum the icons are also placed within this folder.
View attachment gullum_Qlauncher.cab
sorry but there are no screenshots because I only have gprs connection and it's quite expencive in my counbtry
It seams that some of you have problems with my plugin.
I havn't used CHome editor before so I have made a new cab that simplefies the editing and adding new pages. because Quick Launcher uses the same names that CHome editor uses when adding a page.
within chome editor tap left softkey and choose manual edit item values and then choose GPrograms
Now choose one of the pages
ACTIONURL is the link to the program you open when taping the text on the today screen
TEXT1 is the name of thé program
Icon is the icon on the right side
PICTURES is the icon displayed on the left of the program name
TEXT2 is the second line of text if extra info is needed
SK2TEXT is the text displayed in the right softkey
SK2URL is the link to the program you want to launch with the right softkey.
this is not the easiest way I know but it's the only way right now
If you want to add a page just tap left softkey and choose add new page then select GPrograms and click on create App Page and just select and add the text you like. but for adding an icon you have to do it the other way discriped abow
I hope that this can inspire someone to make and app that lets you(us) add and remove apps in a more simple way
How do you change the programs that show up? Nice app once I figure it out, this is just what titanium needs. Thanks!
how exactly do u use this "APP" ?theres no instructions what so ever, as said b4 this would be a good ap if i can get it to work..
Gullum Come on. You know we are going to nag your leg of about those install instructions..
updated post 2 with some info that I hope will help you to edit my tab

Nice job Gullum
can someone modify to have an "+/- ADD / REMOVE" page like the one in the internet favorites to be able to adjust in a simple way
Thanks
Ok, I figured it out. This is exactly what 6.5 needs. My problem is I update my Rom so often having to map those buttons everytime is going to be a pain. It took me about 5 minutes per button, but I love the app. Thanks!
where are the icons packs for this?
You can search png-icons on the net if you need other than those included... there are plenty of icon packs...

but .. with an app launcher here and an app launcher there.. what's the point in having a startmenu??... esp one that's just another app launcher...
idk... microsoft really didn't do much to make this version of windows mobile NEW
imo
new cab uploaded to make editing and adding pages more simple
this will not work with other plugins and the bliss theme. when I try to add it, it removes weather and twitter plugins from my bliss theme.
If i install this one over the older one, will the tabs stay the same?
Tried: and had to change it again

[APP][11/05/2009]SMS Settings 0.1

There are a few apps that do the same as this floating around, but most have requirements like .Net CF 3.5 or similar. This also gave me a chance to demonstrate my new set of controls for C++. (the slider, the buttons at the bottom etc.)
What it does:
Configures SMS Sent notification, SMS delivery receipts, Threaded SMS.
It can be skinned (if you know what you're doing with res hacker) by editing l3v5yExtendedFunctionsResources.dll that should reside in \Windows.
Install it, and restart your device. SMS Settings can be found under Start->Settings->System tab.
Tested on my Diamond and Prophet, and in the WM5 emulators, so should work on all WM5+ Pocket PC devices.
Note, SMS threading will only work on WM6.1 ROMs, since it's OS dependant...

Yes I saw that. I could also give it a TF3D slider like look or an comm manager like one. I don't know if you have bigger plans for this app, looking at the resources I think you do. I could make it look completely htc-ish if you give me a little more skinablility Your call, 12

The l3v5yExtendedFunctions file contains loads of other controls which I haven't quite finished off, and the l3v5yExtendedFunctionsResources file contains images for that. What would you need to get better skinability?
The buttons are generated at run time (by l3v5yExtendedFunctions), using values sent by SMS Settings, so they can be configured. All the other images are loaded straight from the resources file (checkbox, up/down button currently, with more to come). Having nicer, HTC styled images would be nice though.
I will be releasing the framework for other developers at some point in the future...

Currently, there's no transparency, though I'll add that (would a bright pink be a better transparent colour than black?). Would that make it easier for you to implement?
Both the background and the buttons are made by drawing a gradient across a rectangle. I can replace this with a bitmap or other image though...
The up/down looks really nice! Thanks for that!

thanks much. was getting kind of tired of my lockscreen always being the same as my today screen
Can I get some feedback from people that have used this?

Sorry, found the problem. It was just a bad cab. It has been fixed. Also, the image must be 480x640 already or you will get an error.
I tried doing this manually too, but the taskbar still uses the image from the today screen. Is it the same using this app? Or did you find a workaround for it? I have an Omnia so I can't use this.

That looks very promising. I've already wrote my own code ( I already know xml and html) to change the bg separately and i've gotten pretty good at customizing cpr files as well but once the lock slider feature gets implemented , it will definitely save people alot of time customizing it to their liking!
Keep up the good work,

alright, that fixed it and works now. but, now the topbar stays the same as the today screen image. so, you end up with the image you selected and the topbar for the image of the today screen
edit== one more thing is once you uninstall the app, the lockscreen keeps the selected image. i even deleted the jmz folder in program files, then changed themes and i still cant get rid of it. any ideas how to get the default behavior back? finally, i reinstalled the app again and now it wont let me change the wallpaper..it keeps crashing

Yes, to my investigating, the topbar seems to be hardcoded somewhere. I will look into it more, but if anything it is part of the start menu cpr. But I will definately look into it. I have put in a restore backup option to put the lockscreen back to default. I think I have error trapped all the IOExceptions. And I also fixed the problem of going back and changing it again. Thanks for your patience.
no problem. i actually got it back to default by deleting the LS_Global.........cpr and i thought it deleted it completely (originally assuming it would just restore the default from the rom), but when i restarted it was back to normal and lockscreen seems to function just fine. either way good job and will be looking for updates.
Just a small bump
hhey man you are also in xda cool
i was the one requesting qvga remember? Dx hope you can still do it ...the more versions ex qvga vga and allthose the more users are gonna enjoy it
thanks ill ask my cousin if she wants it on her touch pro

Black version
PLEASE READ THIS:
What was changed:
- autohide call log and calendar
- 2 appointments with big clock, 5 with small
This modification MUST be installed directly on the DEVICE, NOT Internal Storage or Memory Card!
BIG thanks to:
- hallatore for the concept (CompactHomeScreen for TF3D 2.0)
- kimi_sae_ireba for the great Sense 2.1 VGA port and for sending me a decompiled script, without which this mod would be impossible to do
- 6Fg8 for m9editor - a great tool for editing mode9 files
- sztupy for luadec - a great tool to compile/decompile lua scripts​

Clean version has no arrows and dotted lines.
Reserved for future use.
This new homescreen really works perfect!
Running Gen.Y D2 R5 for diamond now. This works perfect together, thanks!
Good stuff Kamil.
This is heading in the right direction. Can you point me in the right place to move the arrow down a little and maybe display 3 or 4 appointments on the Rhodium's larger display? (Which Manila file?)
The arrow is right in the middle of the blank area on the Rhodium as opposed to your screen shots as its a bigger display. No real issue but would just look tidier on the bottom.
Also the thing that annoys me with HTC's new Sense is that the appointments don't show up unless they are one day away. Have you come across a way to possibly change that?
I'd like to know how you managed to decompile the scripts too. I gave this up as a bad job as I couldn't get the script to decompress beyond 51%. If you did it manually then it's out of my league.
Anyway, nice work.
thanks
This was much awaited
Thank you very much! How about remove the arrow and extend the date of future appointments?!
no date on home now?
so in compact view (small clock)... the date is no longer visible?
I'm glad you like this mod, guys!

I'll prepare a cab for WVGA later.

Nope, it's the same as in Manila 2.1, where I was trying to make it work for a loooong time...

LuaTool copes with most of the scripts, except of the big ones. I've got one decompiled script from kimi_sae_ireba (thanks again).

The first point is easy, but the second is impossible for me.

By default it was not visible.
I've added a cab with a Clean version (no arrows and no dotted lines) and a test WVGA version.
wvga works great on blackstone with togger ROM and sense 2.1
Love the clean look. Very stylish.
Hi Kamil,
Is it possible to make it so I can use a picture as my background on all the tabs in this mod?
I'd also like to know if your mini-tweak which removes the border and what have you around the clock is compatible with this mod or will it override it?
Cheers
p.s. Is there any easy way to change the font colour in Sense 2.1? With the lovely background I want to use I can't read the appointments. The font could do with being black.
In order to have Bg4AllTabs change this registry key:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Tweaks.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000001
My mini-mod removing the clock background replaces the graphic file, so it's fully compatible
Regarding the text color, I'll upload a cab changing the font to black on the home screen.
REPORTING for me on my Blackstone WORKING PERFECT Im using the ROM from my signature
Thanks
I'm glad it works fine on WVGA devices
UPDATE Just before a while I uploaded a new version - Black - which features dark font colors on the home screen. Hope you like it.
Very nice mod, thanks for the hard work works on X1 WM6.1 Sense 2.1. (Mr Rusch's NUTS ROM)
However, it seems to slow down moving between Manila tabs - noticeably but not a lot.
The "standard" config on the x1 is to press the right hardware key to bring back the Manila home screen, from another tab or from just another screen. The Manila home screen does not return for me when pressing the hardware key: it does so eventually via Start/Home dropdown menu.
I uninstalled the cab without problems and the transitions are lightning fast again.
If this gives you a clue as to what may be causing the issue, I'll happily try other variants
Sorry, I can't support devices such as Xperia. The files I have edited in this mod have nothing to do with performance, so I'm pretty surprised to hear that. I only change the positions of elements, nothing more.
Perfect mod, working very well on my Touch Pro with latest EnergyRom (21xxx build with Sense 2.1), thanks for this!
Kamil,
Many thanks for doing this.
I have made a small donation for your effort. I wish I could afford more as I appreciate the work you have done on this more than I can afford to spare at the moment.
Have a beer or two on me...
Thanks very much! I'm glad you like my mods
