Manila? Anastasia? ROM updates? What!? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Maybe this is one of a dozen questions.. i have been searching on the forums to find some cool stuff for my phone,
I installed Cookies Home Tab and the editor and so on...
Now i found Dinik his stuff, and i want that so bad.. it looks really awsome for me...
When i browse the topic, i see things like: Anastasia Task bar etc..
How can i install those things on my, almost standard HTC HD2? Is it just installing the CAB? Or do i need to install a special ROM (i am running 1.66).
And how about Manila? What is that? Do i have that already? When i search the forums, i see all kinds of mods for it, but i don't find the real program...
I hope u guys can help me, and not saying that this is one of the dozen or something.. i just want to be helped... i have used the search option already.
Thanks in Advance..

Manilla is you home screen with tabs etc.

Manila is another name for HTC Sense. Download cabs you want to your device, open file manager and double click. Good luck.

Ah okay! So that was indeed a stupido question
How about Anastasia?

That is the name of a stylistic theme for Sense/Manila mods created by forum member Dinik.

Ah okay!
Things are coming together now!
I read this question a couple of times on the forum.
Been busy with it tonight for about 4 hours.. i think things are coming together now
Thanks for you help guys

Great Cabs for Titan

Until someone figures out how to cook and upload a custom ROM, here are some cab files for the Titan.
The first is the Home Plug-in used by the Touch. It shows the Weather etc. You
The second is a Music Plug-in
The third is a X-Button program. It's button appears at the top right of the today screen. One can close all programs or any one running program easily.
There's also a streaming video cab which lets one watch YouTube on the Titan. This website would not let me upload it. Search for it elsewhere. It's labeled as follows: RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media
Just put these on your device and click.
Enjoy
out of curiosity, how much memory do you have free on a fresh reboot after installing all of these?

hey thanks for the cabs man they are awesome but i had one question about the audio manager, i have a microsoft zune so i get all my songs thru marketplace but i wont let me pay them on my mogul do to licensing is there anyway to bypass that?
Does anyone know how to make the Weather in Fahrenheit and not Celcius?
What is the difference in the X-button cabs. Some are 120kb and some are 240K? I installed version 1 of x-button and had to hard reset my Mogul. I want to make sure the version and size of the Cab are correct.

I'm not sure. I've never bought anything from marketplace. Please give me the URL of the site. What file format is the music in .wma?
I downloaded a song from Sprint and was wondering how to play it on my laptop. The .koz files are supposed to be really compact. However, I'd like to play them on my laptop. Sprint's music store's offerings aren't bad. However, after logging in on my PC, I cannot get to their music store. I've talked with two techies who say they'll fix the link between my account and the music store. So far - No go. At one time, Sprint supposed let you download an mp3 or wma to play on your laptop.
DiSephano's Cab Collection
I've tried to upload several neat cabs to this thread but the system would not allow me.

Schen's 6 Button HTC Home Cab.
Here's a link to Schen's 6 Button Cab. This works good on the Mogul. It has everything in one package. I didn't use the colors but the 6 Button Home is great and makes the device so much more useable. Follow the link and read instructions.

This one is almost two years old, and I think there are updated versions of each of these programs.
Yea I am starting to think this person is begging for problems.. Here is a post from the Titan/Titan subforum.
He revived yet another post from the grave for no particular reason. What he doesnt realize is that people may actually use the software/information in these old threads and then have to uninstall and install again once locating the newer versions or information. Thats simply not cool.. Even though its not that big of a deal, this place isnt for fooling around.
Please appreciate that this forum has been open that long and prospering. And that XDA still keeps your threads/posts around for years to come. Dont abuse or make fun of the fact that they provide us with those resources.

No one is saying that you cannot post that; it is merely a question of advisability of reviving a 2 year old thread and bringing outdated applications back to the foreground of the forums.
New users are attracted to the smartphone/pdaphone scene every day, and this website is one of the more prevalent sources of information. Old apps that may or may not work are just going to create problems for newer users if they do not work; and add more unnecessary questions being asked in the forums. When validating a new configuration, it is best to use the latest components that are available unless there is a specific reason for using older components; weather its on a pda or otherwise. New users don't always think of that, or think to search for a newer version, but instead post complaining that X component does not work and ask how to fix it. Leaving things like this buried saves those problems.
And if you like a application or enhancement that much it is not difficult to look for the most updated version you can find, state that its a great app, state that you have posted the most updated version available to you, and state the relavant revisions of radio firmware or OS rom you have validated the component on.

AWSOME new software for wm5/wm6 phones (FREE)

hey guys i just stumbled into a nice new(launched 1-1-08) program called Pointui it's a skin program for wm5 & wm6 phones. i am running it right now on my wing and i love the damn thing. but don't take my word for it check out what JASON CHEN from Gismondo had to say about it :http://gizmodo.com/339835/pointui-s...it-usable-best-wm-skin-app-ever?autoplay=true . btw guys i am in now way whatsoever affiliated to whoever made the program, i've learned so many things about my wing from this site that i just wanted to give everyone a heads up. again the program it totally free with absolutley no hoops to jump through.
btw the program has to be installed through activesync ( just so u know) also the link to the website it at the bottom of the review.
and here the homepage:
http://www.pointui.com/
and the .cab for installing
Very nice indeed, I used it for 3/4 days and got sick of
the non-costumizable look. I subscribed to their forum,
a LOT of people want it to be costumizable, so I
think i'll wait for the next release.
I quote from PoitUI Forum:
The Dutchman said:
-Today screen Plug-in, just can't miss batteryStatus, quicklaunch and WLM.
-Graphic costomizer of course
-Inversing the up/down sliding
-At the right top, a CLOSE button when running an app
-When pressing e.g. WiFi in top, then activating it.
-Removal of Operator name
-when one want's to go to programs-->games (or whatever secondary
or third or fourth folder) not having to press (select) it, but slide on it to
the left to go to its content
But after all, KUDO'S 8)

There is one problem for all these today-good-lokking-interface-programms = they are working with windows apps.
but like pointui - all is finally redirected to the crappy winmobile software - when wiritng sms or anything else.
comming there, can be very nice - cube, pointui, spbmobile shell --> but at the end we stop there where we could get by
-->
pressing - start-programms-messaging

There is no .exe (and there is no cake).
To install a .cab file on your device you just copy the .cab on the device and then run the .cab.

I tried this out yesterday, it's pretty neat. My only 2 complaints are a lack of task manager and it eats up A LOT of battery. I uninstalled it.

[RELEASE] AKToggleWifi

One of the most common tasks i do many times a day, is turn the wifi in my ATT Tilt on and off. For this I have to go to the Comm Mgr and toggle it on and off. I've always wanted a one tap way of doing it, and had used BatteryStatus in the past, but its icon was too small. With Manilla2D, we dont even have that option anymore, but we do have the nice big manilla launcher.
So i put together some C++ code from myself and from samples around the web, and made a simple exe that just toggles the wifi on and off. I've cabbed it up, so that it will install into \Program Files and put a shortcut in \Windows\StartMenu\Programs called AKToggleWifi.
You can now add it to the Manilla launcher and it will show up as in the attached screenshot.
You can uninstall it from the Settings\System\Remove Programs.
I havent tested it on any device except my Tilt/Kaiser running a 6.1 ROM from Sakajati (Hyperdragon/Blackstone).
let me be the first one to say: THANK YOU.
many, many people have been waiting for this kind of solution before.
regards
bro
nice solution =D
if you got your keyboard open (for the tilt) you can always hit fn + right and it has the same effect. i just discovered the button a few days ago and it made my life easier but so shall this app.
thanks
Just flat out awesome. Works perfectly, using the default AT&T WM6.1 ROM minus bloatware.

to be honest... it's recommended for anyone.. Hbutton is very very fast and works smoothly.. and also very stable.
you can set multiple apps for every button and there are many options to customize the way it loads them... also there are options to assign
Quit, Ok, Toggle WiFi, Toggle BT.. and many more options.
mmh, i use such a wifi toggle since one year, so i´m wonderíng why you made a new one, or did i miss anything ?
the one i´m using at the moment is also here at xda devs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2788804&postcount=2
here is another one that is 2 Years old but i think i rember it works only on wm5
http://www.ultimatelaunch.de/index_en.html (look at SmartUtilities)
so thank you for your work, but maybe next time some searching ?
big thanks for this function!!!
i'm looking for this for a long time!
i have a P3300 with alot physical buttons
then i searching to activate the wifi without switching to my home screen or comm manage to activate it.
if you can create samething for phone function
i'll be very very happy !!!!
thanks again for your work !!

			
				
i wanted something extremely simple to use, needed no configuration and didnt need other apps to be installed on the device. Hence i wrote this in C++. Yes, other tools can do more and thats great, but they all might require some setup. Since i flash often, i wanted something for myself that i can just use without using any brain energy. Hence the simple app. I'm glad some people find it useful... i certainly find it extremely useful for my own usage style. I released it to everyone rather than keep it to myself, because i have benefitted from the work by other developers on this site, and even if 1 other person finds it useful, i'm satisfied.

do you mean you want something to turn just the phone radio off, similar to how this one turns wifi off? i'll look into it..havent looked at those api's yet, but it should be possible. However, just out my curiosity, why you want to turn the phone off so often?

I agree! Good on you for contributing! I want to say thanks for this app and I will be using it.
i am sorry AK and thanks again for your work.i just want to inform that there are allready existing such wifi toggles. they are simple small exe files and dont need any other application or must be modified, like yours.
HI!
Thanks for this great tool!, I will save some of my times
Could it be possible to get the same but for bluetooth ?
@akarnik: thanks mate, for a useful application. Cheers!

Same as this build http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466438 but with Rhodium apps and Manila TP2 for those that want to play with it.
Still a bit buggy...a few. No need to post about bugs. Actually please dont post about manila bugs to keep thread clean. Thanks!

Great Rom + Manila is awesome but one problem for me not sure if this is supposed to happen maybe its just me but once you go to the weather tab touch flo just does a quick restart hence making weather tab pretty much unusuable other than this awesome work
nice work. i am liking the new manila a lot. i was using it in another rom too and its got more functionality that any of the previous versions. the new icons in programs are nice. it will be good when the manila becomes more stable. keep up the good work.

I'm sure there will some questions about the new manila2 and there are still some bugs out there. This thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486471 ) will help you understand what is going on with this great project.
At0mAng, thanks for a great contribution in working with the new Rhodium Manila!!
Great ROM!
I must say that it is a great ROM!
I have test it for an hour...
I must tell you that the only problem is with the Manila TP2.
But i have seen, that EnergyROM have solved most of the problem of the manila.
But his ROM not stable and easy to use as yours.
So, maybe you will take his Manila TP2 and cook it with your own ROM?
Nice Idea...
His Manila, fixes the Weather and Clock and many more...
I hope that will not offend you (and him...), it for the good will in progress!
Thank in Advance!

Been messin with this ROM for a while now, eventually looking forward to making it my daily. Anyway, ignoring manilla sizing, I found one major bug. When setting an alarm by clicking on the flip clock, Tf3d restarts from scratch. Great work man take care!

Manila from tp2 does not have a programs tab. When the enlarge start menu package is used it makes the start menu the programs tab.

Thanks guys. If you want a more stable ROM try my main ROM found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466438 It is exactly the same as this ROM minus the TP2, Enhanced Menus, and Enhanced notifications. If you are not happy with Manila from TP2 yet you can install what other features you do like.
I have most of the bugs worked out on this Manila build. I am sure it has been worked out in different versions but when I enable the programs tab and go to the programs tab, go to all programs it gets stuck there. If I go to start menu today, it is still on the all programs. Does anyone know if there is a fix for this? I know aruppenthal mentioned something like this in a few posts up so was wondering if disabling the enlarge start menu would fix this.
Also, I am not sure if I am going to release an update since I/we don't want the person working on the manila TP2 port to get upset or whatever. I did ask to use it but never got a reply back... Any thoughts on it?

The issue with the programs was happening in the other builds and thats why it was out for a little while i believe...I dont want to speculate what the problem was....If arrupenthal and NRG dont know maybe Dharvey, Showdaco or XBOX himself...sorry...
I have the working manila TP2 with all tabs...

Decertifying
Not sure if this is the correct thread so I appologise in advance.
Bought an Iolite from O2 which and the phone is currently unlocked.
I cannot install some applications (although I've installed Skype for ex). I get "installation was unsuccesful". I thought is all about decertifying so I looked for information about changing registry values and registry editors etc but apparently, values in registers cannot be changed or deleted. Any ideas, please?
