[APP] Manila 2D All-in-one installer for Raphael (with Footprints... and OEM package) - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

UPDATE1: Footprints tab and other minor fixes.
Original post:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi!
I'm usually known in the Omnia community for my M2D All-in-one installers. It was just a question of time to create it for the Raphael too.
This is a very early release, it has a lot of known bugs, (and it might have a lot of unknown bugs). It includes Manila2D version 1911 (patched by xplode), Footprints (by KDKobes), AudioManager (version 1911, but the exe files are from version 1819, because the 1911 exe wouldn't run for me), MHubVo codec files and lots of fixes for the VGA version.
This installer does not include: HTC Album, Youtube, Google Maps, Opera, lots of other thing you might need for non-Raphael phones
I only tested this installer on a HTC Touch Pro. I tried to only add packages that are missing from the Raphael, while keeping other files that are included.
If you want to install this on a device other than Raphael (or Diamond), then first install all the other requirements that might be missing (like HTC Album, youtube, etc.)
This installer still has a lot of issues.
The following are known errors:
Picture tab only has pictures aligned to a quarter part of the image frame
Changing pictures only work if you sweep in the first quarter of the screen on the pictures tab
Weather animation on the weather tab is misaligned
Location tab has some strange rendering bugs sometimes
Settings/Sounds has a mis-aligned screen
Landscape mode is broken
Application icons in the program selector are buggy
Locations in the weather tab are a bit distorted
Already fixed bugs:
Footprints tab is very buggy. I tried to reskin it to VGA, but then Manila2D experienced a lot of memory errors. It might be my mistake, but unfortunately I think this is because the maximum memory a WinMo application can allocate is 16MB, and M2D got to close to this boundary with large icons. It might work though after sacrificing other tabs (like locations)
Footprints application is buggy, and might crash a lot
Buttons on the music tab are not working. It will however display the actual song correctly, but you still have to load up Audiomanager to switch songs
I try to fix them as soon as I find a solution for them. I will also keep an eye on the Footprints development too, to include the latest patches from them too.
Setup guide
Hard reset (might not be nescessary, but you need at least 40MB of storage memory)
Disable everything on the today screen
Install Manila2D all-in-one.cab
DO NOT LET THE DEVICE GO TO STANDBY DURING INSTALL!
DO NOT LET THE DEVICE GO TO STANDBY DURING INSTALL!
DO NOT LET THE DEVICE GO TO STANDBY DURING INSTALL!
Set the theme and background (optional)
Soft reset (might be optional, but advised)
Enable Touchflo on the today screen
Enjoy (optional)
If you're into ROM cooking, or want to edit the source of the cab file, I also provide the package files, and an easy-to-use install creator to create modified cab files.

Many thanks to xplode, KDKobes, herg62123, pijulius and the other guys who made VGA TF2D possible, the guys at the omnia community and everyone else who are involved somehow with M2D/me/etc.

Wooh! Thank you so much for this i have been waiting for a m2d port for our phone.

Thanks for this release. Here my comments:
footprint and pics are displayed in qvga even if the borders are vga
clock is mixed. you have both analog and digital overlayed
inside footprint it displays some glitches and i don't see the pic taken before, just the city and date

I'm working on the footprints errors. I think I'll disable the Locations and the Photos tab and keep only Footprints. Maybe this way memory consumption will be fine.
I intentionally mixed the clocks, just to show that clock does work too
The default 4 pics in footprints are broken for me, but the new pictures I take are fine.

Can you disable the digital clock and leave the original analog ones?
Is there no way, to scale the pics to vga inside the frames of footprint and photo tab?
Thanks, and let me know, if I can support you (e.g. free server space, etc.)

1. Yes, it can be done by editing HTCHomeSettings (will do it in the next release)
2. Currently I'm trying to scale the footprints to normal size. I hope I'll manage to do something

Updated:
- Fixed Footprints / Footprints tab
- Removed Analog clock, Pictures tab, Locations tab
- Fixed Audiomanager
You might turn pictures/locations on, by editing HTCHomeSettings.xml but beware that M2D eats 17MB of memory already, and around 18-20 it gets real buggy and stops working! The pictures on the footprints tab are still small (not 2x, but only 1.5x the size of the original), because of memory contraints!
DL: http://winmo.sztupy.hu/m2daiovga.html
This version seems to be fine for everyday usage too.

Oh, forgot to enable People tab in the latest release... uploading the fixes... uploaded

Has anyone been able to get M2D running along side TF3D? Basically what I'm asking is has anyone been able to install this on a Touch PRO/Fuze without messing up TF3D?
Reason I ask is because both TF3D and M2D have a Manila.exe and I would imagine installing M2D would break TF3D.

I have both installed, and you can run one at a time w/o problem. I'm gonna flash one of the lite rom and get gid of touchflo3D.

M2D eats a lot of memory, and porting it to WVGA would mean even more memory. So if you want to port it then first disable almost all tabs (keep home, people, settings and programs). Only after that try to change the XML+images. Always keep an eye about the memory usage and if it goes beyond 18-19 megs, then consider lowering image sizes.

allright.
Its mostly the background images that needs changed (made longer )
I got it working on wvga, just need to fix the sizes on the images.
x1 has alot of memory, so memory usage is not a big consern for me

TP has a lot of memory too, but in Windows Mobile if an application eats more memory than 16-20megs it will crash. So this limit is a hard limit unfortunately

Hi sztupy,
Did you make any progress, I mean on the remaining bugs ?
Specially on those:
# Picture tab only has pictures aligned to a quarter part of the image frame
# Changing pictures only work if you sweep in the first quarter of the screen on the pictures tab
# Weather animation on the weather tab is misaligned
# Locations in the weather tab are a bit distorted
# Application icons in the program selector are buggy
Cheers

Not really. To solve the picture you need either switch back to QVGA (so put the picture in the first quarter), or do some heavy disassembling which I dislike (took me 6 hours of debugging to find where Footprints store the coordinates, and I don't think I have the energy to do that again with Manila...). And as I said: larges pictures = more memory consumption, which is a bad thing
The other things are hard coded too (except maybe for the weather animation. For that changing the pictures might help)

Hi, thanx for your fast replay.
So really to clarify. At first I want to use Manilla 2D because it's faster than manilla 3D, and has less memory consumption. But you say that on a VGA device Manilla 2d is consuming a huge amount of memory.
So for VGA, do you recommand then Manilla 3d better that Manilla 2d ? in other words, what's the adventage of Manilla 2D on a VGA device over a M3D ? M2D is useless in a performance view ?
Cheers

Efbiaye's VGA Diamond Theme 1.0.2 (February, 2nd) - SPB MS 2.1 (not upscaled!)

Hello ev1,
Since I was not satisfied with any existing VGA themes (most of which were upscaled from QVGA) I decided to do my own Diamond theme.
I tried to be pretty accurate while doing this theme, all icons, backgrounds etc. were prepared from the scratch by me, basing on numerous screenshots from Diamond TF3D.
I tested it over a week before releasing it to the public now. However, since I'm pretty busy with my day-to-day life, I don't plan to make any major changes to this theme, unless you discover some bugs.
Over 5000 downloads later, finally long awaited update! Comments for 1.0.2 version begin here.
Changelog:
v1.0.2 (February, 2nd 2009):
- additional (optional) layout configuration:
Layout C1 (based on Greatball's Diamond 1.2 layout C) - one contact page (for three contact pages use Layout C3)
- additional Porgrams buttons - GAMES and ACTIVE TASKS (necessery reg files included, all layouts are updated for this feature)
v1.0.1 (July, 31st 2008):
- additional (optional) layout configuration:
Layout B (based on Greatball's Diamond 1.2 layout B) - includes: Most Recent Used (MRU) tab - gesture switchable with Programmes tab; 3 contact pages;
Layout C3 (based on Greatball's Diamond 1.2 layout C3 Contact Pages) - similar to above but has no MRU page.
v1.0.0 (July, 28th 2008):
- full portrait and landscape support,
- every graphic (except for big weather icons) prepared from scratch for native VGA resolution.
Additional credits:
- layout based on Greatball's Diamond 1.2 Layout B and C3 (3 contacts pages) theme,
- QVGA to VGA theme conversion method by Mtkates,
- big weather icons were fractally upscaled from Greatball's new weather icon set used in 1.1 version of his theme,
- HTC for creating TF3D GUI.
Installation notes:
- backup your device/SPB MS dir,
- select desired layout,
- replace all files in your SPB MS dir with the files from my theme archive,
- if you wish to have GAMES and ACTIVE TASKS buttons in Programs tab, edit, according to the included instructions, and import necessery reg files on your mobile device (reg files are included in the package),
- restart your device,
- enjoy the theme.
Additional notes:
- the "Bigger photos in contact page by markfdr" mod will probably not work with C1 layout, as I used my original files,
- please note, that I have not tested the theme with latest SPB MS 2.1.4 build, so it may not work 100% correctly with it,
- I have noticed one or two people in some other boards crediting them selves for my theme... I MEAN COME ON, YOU DON'T NEED TO PAY A FRACKING CENT FOR IT AND YET YOU CLAIM IT'S YOURS!?
- If anyone wants to post it somewhere else, please include original link to this post, the same goes for other elements from this theme,
- as soon as clean my source .PSD files, I will release a pack of those, for people who would like to use the elements for other themes.
Todo:
- different background alternatives,
- weather icons prepared from original diamond weather graphic elements (VGA)
If someone can help me with the two above, it would be nice

fbifbi, Congrats with this TRUE VGA (?yes?)
You might make a link on the Diamond general thread as some people would certainlu like to switch (back) to SPB with a nice GUI as you made.
Looking forward for more releases. sorry - barely no time - so can't help..
Greaaaaaaaaaaat..this is what I want a real graphic..thanks for your work
wow , good work , keep them coming ..
HATS OFF
Wow Great work! Thank you!
Just one tought folks: I thing it is better to change the weather shortcut to Marsware Weather Pannel and not use the SPB one. What is your opinion?

KALI2000, you would need to edit your weather.xml file in order to center the big weather image, as you see currently it's more to the right, since my layout file is suited for the images 300px wide. I will find the exact place and will let you know where to edit.
EDIT:
Check the qa_layouts.dat file for MainWeather.xml, you need to find and edit two lines 115 and 172 (portrait mode / horizontal mode):
<LeftTop X="45" Y="80"/>
X marks the spot ;} err I mean is the space ammount in pixels measured from left margin
OK, short explanation where does the 45 come from.
My weather picture is 300px wide. Screen is 480px wide.
480px - 300px = 180px
180 / 2 (left and right margin) = 90px
However since this is a QVGA conversion of a theme, SPB doubles all the dimensions automatically, hence in order to achieve 90px margin in VGA you need to put half of the value - in my case 45px. Hope it's clear
At one moment I tried to convert BeyondInvisible's Diamond Enchanced icon set.
The icons are 240px wide (full screen), I have resized it to 480px, packed it in the theme, however, the bitmap was huuuge (if I remember correctly about 8MB), unfortunaltey SBP MS crashed when I tried to display weather page. So be careful guys while trying to convert other weather icon sets. Beside that, the memory consumtion grows rapidly if the images are large.
I checked yesterday, SPB MS uses ca. 11-12MB RAM with my theme - which already may be too much for some older VGA devices... But that's the price one has to pay for a good looking theme

Finally, a good VGA skin for spb mobile shell. Thank you. It's very very well done. I love it.
Let's hope more layout will follow later.

Kaiser Android - List of Apps that work w/ QVGA

I've been recently impressed with the latest android builds, if I wasn't already in the past. Though, the biggest issue now I have is the resolution we boot in. We need to boot Android in a closer resolution to the current native Android phones in order for apps to look right. The draw backs are with a higher res are: Text is a little blurry(due to our native res), and the UI is a tad bit small for our fingers. A positive is 90% of the apps fit on the screen. Less force closes I presume.
So I decided to boot android in QVGA, added 240x320 and lcd.density=128 to my default.txt..I'm using xrom based off firmware 1.5. I was suprised how clear the text in linux was and the overall look is a lot more crisp and proper for our screen size. Everything seems to be formatted for the screen but most apps..the core of android looks good. This is where we need to post what apps you can find on the market that fit and look good in QVGA. Might be pointless until an official android QVGA phone comes out...but this is a start. Most apps I've tried actually launch..they just are not formatted for qvga or don't scale down.
Free Apps that work with QVGA:
-Market
-Dialer
-Calender
-Google Maps (not streetview)-I think we have to boot 480x320 for that.
-Browser
-keyboard
-IM
-terminal emulator
-Neocore
-Java App
-ACV(comic book reader)
-Alarm clock
-Task Panel X
-Google Talk
-Messaging
-MixZing Lite Media Player (large widget doesn't fit)
-Gallery( Partially works)
-Youtube app (some youtube videos work, but some don't)
-App manager
-file managers and browsers (astro and OI)
-smspopup
Apps not usable under QVGA..
-Gmail - Works when viewing whole emails, but email tabs dont fit
-Music - Works but graphics dont fit
-Weather Wiget
-ilock 2.0
- Most Sound boards and games I've tried..for obvious reasons ( the java app could hold us untill more qvga support)
Also.. apps that support scrolling usually will be usable on our screen.
Apps that dont support scrolling or side scrolling dont fit..
Besides apps.. I'm actually able to watch a qvga mp4 video without extreme lag.
Help me find more apps that work with qvga(for now) list em here if you found apps that work or don't work under android QVGA.
*Reserved for future use*
try 336x448 resolution (with ion)
till now i didnt notice any major problem with apps.. and i download hundreds from market

I realize that..with 428x320 most of the apps looked good. It's just the overall look of android looks better i think in qvga..even the text in linux is readable. pop-up notifications in android fit the screen better, text in android is cleaner and bigger, smaller text is readable. I can now watch videos in qvga without getting heavey lag. 3D apps like neocore scale-down to the resolution. I even got a Youtube video to play for the 1st time.
Hi,
Is there a way to get the lock screen to show the whole screen using the QVGA size? it does not show me the bottom row of on screen buttons, also I love the clearity and sharpeness it gives when using the 240x320 setting
Sincerely,
Christopher

New WM 6.5 Titanium Theme

Hello everyone,
Just finished another version of Titanium Themes I am working on. I have portrait & landscape cabs for: VGA, WVGA, QVGA & WQVGA.
The .cab changes your titanium text to icons only, the background, taskbar, etc will not be changed.
Note that I do like the text, however, the icons allow for a more visible background.
Themes are thanks to twolf & mallman as it could not have been completed without them.
I suppose we can call QVGA & WQVGA official, no weather or Opera support now though I do intend to add them ...one of these years.
Downloads attached in this post. Betas are thanks to OndraSter.
You may lock up your phone & have to clear storage, so I recommend you back up first.
A new not so beta WVGA has been added for download. Note the home tab is slightly different (4th screen). Support for Opera & a few other plugins was added so long as you install your plugins first. Lastlly you won't have the Neuropol font, which is only attached to the home tab, unless you add it to \windows\fonts\. I dunno if I can attach it here or not so here's a link to dload it for now: http://www.dafont.com/neuropol.font
Background for VGA screens are from SsS (by Deck on PPC) rom default, stated made by jbchow.
Please feel free to modify & repost this theme as long as it is free.
Enjoy!
very slick
very impressive! Could you upload your wallpaper as well?
This looks good. I didn't like the large text, so reduced it...but your idea of having icons is perhaps even better. I wonder if there is a way to show the icon and when you put u drag the bar, if the icon + text can show. I'll give it a shot when I have some free time.
Thanks
SeanFromSoCal: You should be able to do both. I was thinking about changing the icon to text only when highlighted myself. However, the preview of messages, etc is the only reason I stray from doing so.
My next icon only theme will remove at least one of the secondary icons. You may have noticed the time/alarm was slightly lower than the other icons, it is my intention to release a set without the time/alarm icons on the time bar to better show backgrounds.
eleguent: About the background question, apologies as it is not mine to give, however, you could extract it from the SsS rom here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=68755
oldsap: Thank you!
Thanks everyone, I hope the set is enjoyed. Also, please feel free to rip this thing apart & reuse it to your pleasure so long as you keep it free.
ok realease on qvga NOW i love it
i wanted
qvga please.
qvga in the works...
QVGA Please!
the best, qwga please!!
Qvga plz we all it
qvga / alarm not showing
Okay, about 2/3 done with the qvga & noticed an issue with the alarm icon on vga version which I will work out as soon as I am done with qvga.
Update: Alarm only shows if you have alarms set, lol, man am I a winner. W & QVGA's betas posted, definite issues with WQVGA landscape, wip.
Questions,
check your PM
aaaa i wanted now! lol i have manila right now but if you release it NOW ill hard reset!

I'm with you. In attempts to maximize the amount of background shown I also tried messing around with the layer heights. I was trying to make the ClockExpanded height nearly full screen and leaving all the other layers their current height, but the Titanium doesn't appear to let you have different height attributes. When I make all of the plugin heights larger (trying to get fullscreen/near fullscreen plugins), the text would get distorted.
Stupid M$! Fix your Titanium UI to make it recognize all XML attributes so we can full flexibility.
am waiting lool
ive installed the cab but cant see it in the list of themes.
am i doing something wrong?

I believe you may not be using the windows default (titanium theme).
The theme should appear when you check "Windows Default" in you Today settings.
Please let me know how it goes.

You could do that by shifting the images of the clock plugin outside the panel and insert above the clock plugin some blank plugins so the text of the other condensed plugins does not come in the way.

Nice.. Really love the battery status.
Thanks
QVGA please, Thanks.
Hey adioph,
upload your qa_layouts.dat file from the SPB Mobile Shell folder, and ill see what i can do about QVGA.
edit: nvmd, got it working
hmm, thats weird, i have a Touch HD, so your device and mines should be pretty similar, also nothing was done to alter the original functionality of MS3.5 as all the orignal widgets etc remains. Will look into it though, thanks.
great widgets btw, thanks. one thing though, is there a reason you branded the battery meter with mh widgets 1.0??? honestly, would much rather see the date up there.
was thinking of gettin the weather widget up there, currently working on it, was also thinking about putting the date / alarm up there. so you guys can have a few options.
Look out for Date, and Alarm versions tomorow.
wow.. good work mate..love the battery status

Shouldn't this already work for VGA since it also has the vertical resolution of 480 pixels?
Very good work!
Can u do QVGA version?

another LNK plz
Awesome!
I love what you did with SPB3.5. Too bad, I am not a SPB fan, but this does look really nice. Great ideas with Tasks and Agenda, the clock.
hmm...I may have to buy SPB, so I can enjoy this.
Thanks man.
Hey guys, i dont know if it works on the other resolutions, only tested on WVGA,
you cant try installing it on the other devices and see if it works, and let me know.
Backup your qa_layouts.dat file in the spb mobile shell directory before testing.
If it does not work on your device, unintall the cab via "remove programs" and then restore your backed up qa_layouts.dat
------------------------
As for the other resolutions, the graphics files would need to be completely redone to match the resolution of the device, please provide the "qa_layouts.dat" file and specify the resolution. And ill see what i can do about a conversion. First come First Serve, so qvga is first .
Also i want to make sure there is no bugs etc with the WVGA version before i start churning out the other resolutions. Also working on a design to acomodate the default lifestyle skin of the notification icons.
will be trying this. the battery on the time looks lovely and I'm vga

[SLIDER] [UPDATE:19/JAN] Classicflo Slider V2

It's been over a year(?) but i've been working on this for the past few days, and.. here's an update!!
To all nrg rom users:
Use classicflo_slider_v2-nrg_beta.cab
In the classicflo slider v1, nrg roms did not display the upper image. I don't know why this happens. To counter this, a transparent backplate is utilized.
I have not tested this on a nrg rom yet, tell me if it works
If you encounter any problems: take a screenshot + write a description to post here or pm me.​
Thanks to

for testing way back when
Hello all,
I've created a slider for sense/manila 2.5 based on the classic monochromatic icons from touchflo3D 2.0.
Todo:
=====
icons to add:
- call history
- manila tv
- facebook
- gps
- change week day preview color
- update all images to cleaned up 256x256*
* other than facebook and call history, the icons may still appear blurry as they have not been 'properly' fixed up as of yet
Changelog:
=========
v2
- added utopykzebulon's call history tab icon
- added netdrg manilatv tab icon
- add meltwater's facebook tab icon
- adjusted some icon positions and sizes
- calendar icon better supports newer manila
- preview icons are now 256x256 in size
- transparent sliderback support for nrg roms
similar to pamas's transparant (Glass) Slider here
v1
Icons include:
Home, people, sms, email, internet, reader, photos & videos, music, calendar, stocks, footprints, recent documents, twitter, weather, programs (not pictured) and settings.
Enjoy!
install instructions (for any .cab file):
=============================
i. uninstall any previous custom installed sliders
1. download the .cab file and move it onto your phone (via activesync) or to your microSD card.
2. use a file explorer program and navigate to where you have placed the .cab file
3. double-click the .cab installer to install. click "ok" or "yes" if required.
installation done!

No, sorry i only have the classic htc one. i think the one you're referring to is made by a carrier - so the image files would be pretty hard to find.
If there are any issues, post them here and i'll try to troubleshoot!
thank you very much for posting this consistant slider. its like the finishing touch of my GTX screen.
Thanks so much man! I've been looking for this for a long time...
Thank you nice to have the "classic" slider
nice! thanks
Thanks for sharing!
Very nice slider, thanks !!
by the way, would be possible to reduce the size preview icons we can see its a little sharped because there are big. and the sms tab icon would be more aligned with the slider (the black square behind)
I suggest this because I like very much your slider !
Brilliant, thanks so much for making this - the new Sense slider is so tacky: like some have already said here, I don't know why HTC abandoned the super slick version...
How can I install this??
Say, I'm currently using a different version of this slider made by Zitoun - only problem I have with it is that the calendar tab's preview icon has the date out of alignment. Does this one have that issue? If not, sign me up, the TF3D iconset is so much nicer than Sense.
Can you make a Facebook tab!? Please!

yes...
Also make call history icons please??
Edit: The calendar tab would probably look better if the day of the week was darker than white. Also, I haven't used the touchflo interface previously, but is the selected tab supposed to be blank when you're on it's page? In other words, when I slide and stop on a tab, the icon is hidden by just the blank grey tab slider. On the new Touchflo interface, it shows the icon as selected essentially, which is kinda what I prefer. So this may be a bug on my phone with this addon, or I may just be unfamiliar with the old interface...
Thanks for your work though and if these above things are addressed, I'll run this permanently. Currently though, it's not quite where it needs to be for me to run it daily. I'm running the Tmobile HTC LEO with latest EnergyRom.
facebook and manila tv
It is by far the best slidericons collection but:
with facebook and a manilatv icon its even better
So if you could be so kind...

Really nice, better than the default slider, but I would like to report some bugs... if this is the right place to do it...idk
First I noticed on the HTC Rhodium Verizon CDMA version, running latest EnergyRom Jul 24
The Slider does not have an image for whatever tab you are currently on, Its just all black.
And the Calendar shows the date all out of line...
Any chance you could add an icon for the GPS tracker tab?
