As everyone knows no modification made for manila 2.1 works on 2.5
No graphics and no clocks
The hitch was that we didnt know how to name the files.Here is how-!
READ the post and see the video
I can proudly announce that i realised the naming algorithm is like this after doing a little research
IF ANYONE HAS ALREADY DONE THIS BEFORE..I DIDNT FIND IT FOR SURE
it is as simple as this
Manila naming algorithm/
Anything in home.mode9 file shuld be started with a .\home\whatever it was in m9editor
example
.\Assets\Images\Home\VGA\TabSinglesandNotificationIcons.qtc
to
.\home\Assets\Images\Home\VGA\TabSinglesandNotificationIcons.qtc
anyhting in internet shuld have
.\internet
anything in a mode9 file shuld have the name before it.
so on so forth

simple.efficient..spent a life time understanding
skinners,modifiers..its your ball game now
hey mate,
could u explain a bit more?...i mean, when i included new pictures in my mod, it was no problem to get it done.
i think this find is just for "cosmetic" purposes isnt it?..or is it needed for other things than qtc's?
hmm..i do think we should write a bigger tut on how things are going on there..now its like only a few pieces which make it pretty difficult to even start..i dunno how it is in the diamond or touch hd forums though?

this is for manila 2.5 LEO..the new manila.the manila u were using is manila 2.1
the file names are different in LEO and couldnt be found till today.
this gives the file names.
so... does that mean that you will be able to do some kind of "panosidetoside for 2.5"? ;-)

what does that mean
gota get to the bottom of this
Just off the topic for a while, was the voice in the video yours? Or did u use software

I'm not exactly sure if the TouchFLO has to be on a touch screen phone, but I've seen pics of this 2D version of TouchFLO floatin' around and I'm wondering if it can be ported to our phones?
Anyone know?

Shucks. Maybe in time...
all the cabs are available in xda development and hacking forum. But the total install is around 26mb. I installed on my tilt last night and its pretty sweet. Dpad navigation works, so maybe a possibility that it could work, just have to try it. They also have the oems available for using in roms. Maybe nrg can cook it into his rom.
Has anyone here tried this yet? Its working almost perfect on the shadows, so the only reason you might have problems is the landscape compared to portrait layout. But that could be worked out, the main thing is that it will work on wm standard if anyone's interested in it.

It's only for htc phones right now, so I can't try it on my blackjack before it sells to let you know any more than that. I can tell you on the tilt, that this is a great interface plugin.
showaco-where is download link and instructions ?
I have htc s620 and i have to try.

thats just a matter of changing the settings xml for the image layout and changing size of background images, wouldn't be to hard, just takes a little time on spacing adjustment. The zip with all needed cabs is in the first link. shadowmike may have changed some of the files to use on smartphone, i'm not sure. He's supposed to have his done this weekend and should be available on allshadow.
NRG should get this for excaliber/dash if he's serious about making a rom.
Nice, how about that HTC Viva, I think its using the same processor as the Dash, but with native TouchFlo, can't wait.
Re: TouchFlo
If someone could put the XML code up then we could all do our little bit here, all we would have to do is highlight change and the original post could be corrected
Then all we need a test bed shore Reeg would be into this?
Just trying to make us all involved
I know this would be simps for showaco
i sugest-give us all needed files in one zip archiva with instructions for instalation.

Manilla Touchflo2d is now working on htc smarthphones for anyone interested. The layout is for portrait, but is has a xml file that you can adjust all the tabs, icons, text etc , so that it will view correctly on the dash/excalibur. Here's a link to all the files needed and a good thread on setting it up for smarthphones.
http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3354&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=40
The files and links are about half way down the page along with install directions and lots of screenshots.
Anyone would care sharing their xml for the dash? I'm not too good with those sort of things...

If I install this do you know if I could still use sliding panels if I wanted.
Sure, if someone shoes me the way i'd be glad to contribute as much as i can!

Hey y'all
so,
while we're all waiting for our "Dreams" to show up on the 22nd, this would be a lot of fun to play with. If anyone figures it out, and could even just write down how they did it, I'd REALLY REALLY appreciate it, as I'm sure everyone else would as well. Thanks!
I've bn working on it for about 4 days now but I don't have alot of time. I know that show has been doing some work on landscape as well.
I offer myself as a test dummy for it. Just tell me what to do. It seems to be quite impressive. I hope showaco will come out with some good stuff

hey gorap, have you already installed it on your dash? You have to move the tabs first so you can see them. I've got some of the landscape values for home and weather. The programs page auto adjusts to fit I believe. The wallpaper background has to be widened as well(hh_fw_background.png).

When I bought my first PPC, I didn't have a clue on how to mod it, or do any of the cool stuff I saw other people were doing. I read the forums for a good week, and tried to find out all the info I could. Afterwards, I tried a few mods and they worked! There were a couple of times where I couldn't figure something out, THATS when I posted and asked questions that were answered by forum members. You have to do some reading, research & experimentation about things first, you can't just post a general question and expect everyone to spoon-feed you the information. Read a few threads dealing with how to do what you want to do, use the search, and you will see someone has asked the same questions you have now. Download the .CAB files you need, and happy modding!
thanks mate
all i want to know is if i am using the right software i download something name the diamondtf3d i can chage the skin but the skin comes like half way down the screen i guess that because it was design for the diamond which has a small screen so i want to know if there is a version for the blackstone
Depends on the theme. Some themes can be obtained by just replacing manilla files in your Windows folder. Search for instructions in the appropriate theme thread.
Regards,
Carty..
thanks mate
well right now i am using a program name diamond tf3d config and the themes are coming like half way in the screen can some one help me plz
can the diamond TF3D config used to edit/add themes for HTC HD / blackstone? will there be any problem?
Using a Diamond tool on your Blackstone/HD could cause trouble because the screen resolution and size are way different (Blackstone 480x800, Diamond 640x480)
Hi there,
can anyone give me a link of where to download Touchflo 3d for Touch HD??
I've recently found a thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470164 which compressed whole manila files to make the Touchflo 3d relatively smaller and faster to the original one, but this is for diamond only, I'm looking for something that suit for my touch hd, if anyone got what i'm looking for, please let know, many thanks!!
wrong post ?
dude, the Touch HD comes with Touchflo as standard, why on earth would you want to download it again ??
Also this is a the wrong part of the forum to post on !!, if you havent got it, then contact your phone provider

I believe lynne02191 is asking for a compressed/sleeker version of HD Manila (i.e., the images in Manila's qtc files are compressed) that runs more smoothly, etc. than the stock version, and this would be the right place to discuss this, IMHO.
I think with the inherent capabilities of the HD, as well as the wonderful cooked ROMs people are making, Manila runs very well, and there is plenty of extra memory on the HD with it running, so a compressed/sleeker version may not be a priority.
Just my opinion, but this might explain why no one is trying to do something similar to the thread you linked, which was done to make HD manila run smoothly on the Diamond. Then again, someone may already be doing this, I do not know.
You may want to look here ( see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470798) and look into the compression process.

Hi sk806,
Thanks for reply!
I've already been searching for a while, and I didn't found any version that is manila compressed but several .cabs which claimed are ported from the original blackstone manila.
after that, I installed all of them, but the result disappointed me, since I've encounterred many problems from the procedures.
anyway, like what u said, there are plenty of nice ROMs around there which run HD manila very well, so I won't bothering meself from searching anymore

KWBR's ROM; 'a Touch of HD' uses Chainfire's CFC

i tried the "live patch" before flashing a full ROM but it didn't work on the HD, Chainfire is too busy at the moment to fix that up

hey guys...
I was wondering how to port the qvga version of touchflo to wqvga (My LG-Incite). I have been searching everywhere for this and no one seems to be helping me so i thought of posting a new thread on this. I think (from my experience of tf2d), it may be an xml file i simple need to edit but i couldnt find the htchomesettings.xml. I also have another doubt that it may be a dll i may need to edit. However id good at this thing, please please reply to it. The whole incite community has been lunging for this since the creation of bread
-chao (you may know me as the creator of Hydros Sync Center )
not sure if it is possible due to the hardware used. WQVGA cannot support TF3D and it would be pretty cool to have TF3D on my Omnia and many people are asking, but i don't see it happening. If anyone could shed any light that would be cool.
not on the omnia but the incite does support this software. it has awsome graphics chip.
actually if i recall incite is vga and you can port tf2d but not 3d. you may try 3d 2.1 though shouldn't brick your phone if you wanna try
I don't think there's any WQVGA Manila port, but you can always try TF2D 2.0, which is very similar looking to the Leo builds of Manila. Some small modifications were also made to make it WQVGA compatible.
I'm sorry but wich working qvga version do you mean?

so you said sense 2.5 its working well? QVGA version?
Can some one help in converting this to english and clearing out some bugs such as when shortcuts are opened they overlap clock also landscape does not work well. there are some others im sure on trying it out on topaz can clear things out. This way manila 2.1 users dont have to take the risk with flashing it to 2.5.

Isnt there any one who could do something about this??? come on ppl xda is the place for genius im sure someone can spare some time and do something for manila 2.1
That is probably because the handful of Dev's working on 2.1 have either moved on or know it's not possible.

To point out it's something i'm not sure about
Adding programs to 2.1 isn't just modifying the Home tab LUA code.
It's doing a whole lot of modifications, and then off course The manila vesion could also just not have support for this.
I think one of the best candidates for this would be Dman, as he already made some extreme Manila modification.
