Hi,
I have the T-mobile MDA Compact III, the Dutch version, with wifi and stuff. I also have a Qtek S200 and the first thing i noticed is that the Compact III has no calculator! This may seem like a small thing, but it bugs me as i got used to using it alot with the S200...
Any plugin or whatever to get a calculator??
Oh and while i'm asking, is there a way to change those freaky pink white colors of the phone pad? I can change theme in the notmal menus but the phone pad always stays with the T-mobile color scheme... any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks,
Rudy
Hmm... interesting. Anyway, there are tons of better calculator out there. I think the.. Omega(?) has a free calculator software.. and if you do a search on www.freewareppc.com, they ought to have a few .. much advance ones too.
Tons of phonepad available in this forum with iPhone wannabe to.. Vista look-alike. Easiest way to get rid of T-mobile stuff is to go Wiki (under WM5 tweak) to get rid of it and use the default.
Had the same problem.
There IS an calculator, only theres no shortcut made by TM
In the folder WINDOWS\calc.exe
there u got to be. ive made an shortcut to it with SPB Pocket plus.
and for the ugly t-mobile color, just install an skin for it. and do a soft reset.
excuse my bad english
Try tapping Start/ Organiser a new window will open desplaying icons for Claculator, Calendar, Notes and Tasks - Strange place to bury the calculator but it is there - Mike
when installing a skin for the phone pad, does it need to be unlocked first or something... and kindof a noob question, but will i lose my warranty?? Where can I download like legal themes for the PDA??
BTW, i found the calc just where you said it would be mike, And i linked it to my right software button!
Forget the CALC from Windows. Try searching for eval. Nice and free Calculator...
You will find it here

P.S. the one in tools is total cmd
Found another thing. In the ringtone and etc, settings both background and text is white.
Can u fix so we can have same background on every page, as the homepage?
Nice one... looks great!!!
This is definatly the fastest ROM I have used in a while, and apart from the doubling up of some programs in the all programs section (which isn't a problem really) is pretty much perfect!
Good job, thanks!

Hi there
I put file explorer and calculator into the start menu as I use them alot, It's just some shortcuts it's seeing, IE: "All programs" checks the start_menu and all sub folders for "shortcuts" There's only 1 program installed, If you would like to do a test copy a shortcut to some other folder in start menu and open all programs and there will be 1 extra in all programs
I'll have a look and see if i can do it in the reg using "menu options"
regards
swampy395
Extra programs
Guys I had a look at this minor proble of multiple files in "All Programs" If I use The menu option in settings to put these shortcuts into the menu then NO Multiple copys are found, But a BIG "BUT" If you replace them using "setting menu options" IT dumps them in "Programs folder" - "THIS I LIKE to KEEP CLEAN" So Tough
If you wan't to get rid of the duplicate shortcuts then use total CMD and delete the following
Windows\start menu\Programs\Accessories\Calculator.lnk + Contacts.lnk + File Explorer.lnk
Windows\start menu\Programs\Connections\Comm Manager.lnk
Now if you should change the shortcuts in start_menu!, using settings\Menu the old shortcut will be found in Windows\start Menu\Programs\*.lnk
P.S. Guys if you use the dot fred task manager Supplyed with this ROM you can copy your Launcher settings to a *.reg file and restore them in seconds and not see the all programs page "So" that's y I didn't spot the duplicates
Enjoy
best regards Happy New Year to you ALL

Benchmark
hi swampy395,
did a benchmark on your ROM, see my regular thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2385460&postcount=1
I have tried your rom for 5 days or so, and I haven't found a single bug, except for the double entry's but that doesn't matter to me..
Its the fastest .rom and manilla tf3d i've ever flashed on me diamond!
But. I have a question: I dont have problems with WWE, but before I always had a Dutch .rom
Is it possible to have this rom in Dutch? (NLD) ?
btw: found out that you can slide the email messages like in the touchflo3d with this rom..
if you click on a envelope in tf3d it opens the email,then you can slide to the following email by sliding to the left or right, never noticed this before? is it new in 2.00 rom ?
Grtz Lars.

dont have experience in cooking, all i know is that you need dutch packages to create a other language .rom so, maybe it's not yet possible.. but i can wait till dutch versions based on 2.0 rom comes out..
and as the rom is so fast and stable I leave it like it is now
grtz Lars.

Hello,
just got my tp2 and had before a kaiser. I tryed a serval of rom's with and without that manila plugin and at least i stayed with the regular todayscreen cause it was easy for me to add stuff to the today scree like a messenger so i can see how many people are onine and whatever....
now i wana try to stay with that manila screen, but i'm realy pissed by the today screen, cause i don't know how to add more then just the clock, schedule and missing calls ... quite boring...
so please, can somebody tell me if its posible to add more? i was already looking around, but i coudn't find anything. maybe somebody is having a link for me?
thank you!
Please read the forum before posting. It's in the top sticky in this section. App is called Manilla Today.

Eyh m8, I did not make this thread, but I looked for manilla Today. Can't find it. There was something like manilla startmenu, to get the old menu back, but that isn't what he is asking for.
I agree with you people should search and read the stickies before posting, but can't find it myself either now.
Can you please provide a link? THanks!
Did find something with the search funtion, but don't think it does what Tabsco is asking for?
i also just found the sticky to change back to the regular screen, but i wanna try to keep on using the hole manila thing, i just want to add more things (todo-list, messanger, etc.) to the manila today screen.
Here you go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508102\
It will replace one of your TF3D tabs and use that like a normal Today screen in WM. Some people like the convenience of having SPB Mobile Shell run on that pane and others like to use it with Pocketbreeze for quick glance information. I'm hoping that we get a port of Sense UI to the TP2 soon.
ok, thanks! i'll check that link soon ... but out of ur mesaage it seems so that it not yet posible to to make manila screen more comfortable (didn't took real look to the link yet)
i'll just check ur suggestion on monday. i hopefully find something with a better look then the regular wm todayscreen.
Im sorry to have to post a new thread I am all about searching and reading I was just looking for a kickstart towards the animated backgrounds Ive seen clouds thus far where they move around the home screen.. I am running WM 6.5 on a T mobile TP 2 if thats any importance... Thanks in advance
Also it nothing to do with my phone but the forum in general.. Which profile tab is the one where everyone lists their devices, programs, I thought it would be a signature but ive yet to see a "Signature" section
52 views and no responses?! did I not explain what I was looking for good enough? sorry to mislead the 52 people who have read the post I dont have animated backgrounds/ screen savers to offer but geez I was just looking for some help. Do I need to put this into a diffrent forum ive been learning here since my wing, tytn II, Hero but the touchflo is all new to me. Doesnt anyone have an answer?
You need to flash a cooked ROM with HTC Sense 2.5, unlike the 2.1 included in most stock 6.5 ROMs. Sense 2.1 doesn't support background animations, and you can only get Sense 2.5 in a cooked ROM.
And FYI, this forum is not HTC technical support and none of us are getting paid to be here, so it may take awhile before someone answers your questions. Just relax and wait for an answer, your thread has only been open for 3 hours so there's no reason to worry

Re: your question about your "signature". At the top of this page on the left under the title of the thread you'll see "User CP" click that. In there look down on the left hand side and look for "edit signiture" its about 8 levels down. In there you can write what you are running on your phone. That will give people a better idea as to how to help you.
Now, Regarding your question about animated backgrounds.... not sure I follow. what exactly are you looking for? Are you looking for animated backgrounds for your phone? Unless you have a rom running on your phone that is HTC sense 2.1 or any 2.5 (notice it's not a regular 2.1 but a SENSE 2.1) you wont be able to have animated backgrounds. Now, that said, IF you do have Sense 2.1 or any 2.5 rom running you can't just use any normal backgrounds in order to have the weather go across your screen. You'd have to use HDwall to make your jpg/png wallpaper a different file (the file that is compatable with weather wallpaper.) it does so automatically. Just take a look here HD Wallpaper Cab and have a read through.
Again you HAVE to have a compatable rom running on your phone. If you are running a stock rom odd's are it isnt compatable. I reiterate... it HAS to be sense 2.1 or 2.5.
Alot of the roms that are capable of this feature actually have a list of wallpaper options built in. I'm currently running the energry leo rom which is HTC 2.5. In there we have the option of a few weather backgrounds. You can check out the screen shot attached. You can find those roms in the rom subforum of the rhodium forums.
Thankyou Dave and thankyou Aaron.. It seems im going to have to weigh my options and flash this phone as well Ive done my wing ive one my tytnII so why not do another.. Thanks for the help ill be setting up the signature when I get home from work today.
