Hi Guys,
My Post could be irritating for most of you guys. But I am very much new to this forum and WinMo.
I bought a new HTC Touch Viva 3 days back, which has Windows Mobile 6.1 version and TouchFlo 2D. Now I am trying to apply skins to the touchflo. With some research on web I cam to know that we need to use Manilla 2D to fulfill this.
But when I checked the Manilla thread in this forum, it has download link but it is redirecting to a different forum.
Some one please help me in downloading the manialla cab and if possible give the details of how to use it.
Thank you very much guys...
Use other shell instead.
Hey, buddy.
I think you should check out SPB Mobile Shell(Commercial), PoinUI Home 2(Free) or PoinUI Home 2 Pro(Commercial) instead. If you don't want to pay PoinUI Home 2 would be a perfect choice.
They are better than Manilla 2D in many ways. At least it doesn't require you to do any modification to use its in landscape mode. That save you from a lot of problems and times!
Sorry, I didn't answer about Manilla 2D. Just my opinion.

Hi dear forum members.
I have been gone from the forum a while, and it seems that I have missed alot, have tried to read alot and it seems that there is a new manila from a new device or something, and its called manila 2 "landscape"
Where can I find that cab? and whats new in it?
And about WM 6.5 is it out yet? I read that itje (the man!) is currently using it or developing, did not understand really.
Any kind soul want to share some light on all this stuff.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485959
Have fun
Whats new... hm... actually the landscape mode and some improvements like built-in calender, contact editor and some things like time editing have been integrated... I´m talking about tf3d2 in the touch-it 4.0 ROM. So i dont know exactly if all stuff i have is include in the .cab.
wm6.5-thread has been closed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475541
Ok thanks, Itje says he is not going to continue on the cab and daran_cark is, hope he makes a cab soon enough =)
havnt seen this one yet... but for u admins are u guys going to make an update to get the new tf3d like on the new touch pro 2 ?
didnt see this yet so am sorry if there is one out...
anyone there to make a new manila 3 cab???
i was looking for that also...i know that touch pro users can find a manila cab, but i could not find anyone making cab with manila 3 for touch hd... .
not everyone want or can install new rom to be able to use new manila....is there anyone who could prepare new manila 3 cab????
you'll find the new manila is useless without an updated rom, mate
you do not need an updated ROM for the porting of the Touch Pro. It runs on 19xxx version of Windows in fact. Some additional add-ons (like enhanced notifications and menus) don't work but those are not a part of TF3D itself.
cool thanks for the heads up mate

That's VGA not WVGA so it wont fit the screen on the Touch HD.
Cab for the new calendar?
Hi,
I have got a Touch HD and I am happy with it. The only thing that bothers me, is the Windows mobile calendar. I saw that on the new TFD 2.5 the calendar has improved significantly. Great optic and no WM even when adding an appointment! That is what I was waiting for!! I really want this calendar!! I never modified anything on my device as I am scared to screw up my Touch HD! Is there a possibility to get a cab with the new calendar on the "old" Touch HD TFD? My version should be the 1.3.353...
Please help me... Sorry if it is a impossible thing to ask...
Thanx!
Hi,
Same for me... meaning I'm a noob in this topic and I would like to understand a bit about TF3D because I have seen in several post that there are other versions (2.5....)
My HD has 1.3.35601.1_1630.38 version of TF3D.
Is there any interest for me to upgrade? I have not found a clear explanation of what the new versions are offering...

Your currently using manila 1.3. The latest manila versions have a better/smoother, more finger friendly interface with additional options & displays (i.e. weather displayed on home tab below clock to name one). Also manila 2.0+ has landscape enabled so you can view all tabs in landscape mode as well as portrait
Thanks,
So is there any way to easily update to 2.0? I'm not used to make modifications so I'm affraid to put the mess in my HD ...

I haven't seen a way yet on the HD to update to another version of manila without having to flash a new rom. Its possible on other devices to port to another manila, but as I said, I haven't seen this avilable yet on the HD
Hi all,
Sorry probably a stupid question here. I have read around here, on applications and they all mention this Manilla v3 etc, and that you need Manilla installed to use the app?
What is Manilla? What does it do? Where do I get it?
Sorry if this has been asked before, or if its a stupid question!

For those that don’t know, HTC’s "Manilla" is basically a customized interface that’s on top of the standard Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional OS. It is not technically TF3D
SOrry,
Im still a little confused lol. Basically, it replaces using Touch Flo on my HD?
Where Do I get it from?

If you have a stock HD (no custom ROM) you have Manila v2.
If you flashed a custom ROM that mentioned "new" Manila or Manila 3 or Topaz/Rhodium Manila then you have Manila 3, basically you'd know if you have v3
Both are TouchFLO 3D (not 2D as some may assume) and a lot of graphics are interchangeable (clocks and tray pictures/icons and many others)
Right now I have a brand new Touch HD (My othero ne broke, just had a replacement).
It has nothing installed, other than what it comes with, hope this helps.
Thanks for your help on this, much appriciated.
Apologies if I am asking a very silly question but I have noticed that one of the main difference between the TD2 & HD2 Home screen seems to be that on the latter you can place shortcuts to frequently used apps whilst on the former you do not appear to be able to do so.
Is this because I am missing something being a newbie, and if so could some one point me in the right direct OR is this in fact the case but there is a tweak somewhere out there athat allows one to do this on a TD2?
I very much like the TF3D interface apart from the apparent lack of being above to place shortcuts to favorite apps on that Home screen.
Again apologies if this is a silly question...but am just starting out in the world of TF3D.
Cheers

WM6.5 for TD2 has 9 shortcuts on home screen.
To increase to 16 or 20 shortcuts there is Max manila themes.
Hi Bruce
Thanks for the prompt reply but some further questions if I may?
"WM6.5 for TD2 has 9 shortcuts on home screen." Is this in addition to the tab 'strip' that one can scroll through and then select a specific tab to display? If so then how do I nominate/get a user defined app to display on the Home screen?
"To increase to 16 or 20 shortcuts there is Max manila themes." What is max manila Themes and how do I get hold of it/install it (if that is what one needs to do)?
Many th anks in anticpation of your patience & time in helping a TF3d newbie.

The shortcuts eliminated the Program tab. This is not available in 6.5 to my knowledge.
Find a WM6.5 Rom and you will be able to select your shortcuts the same way as you used to do in the programs tab. Just click on blank box and it pulls up a list.
For Max Manila theme, start here.
Hi Bruce
Thanks for your further response...and apologies for mine in responding to it but I am in the run up to Xmas and reaping the 'benefits' of being in a service industry.
Have read the link on Max manila but do not quite understand what the app is and how it is installed. Is it just a tweaker applciation or does it make fundemental changes to the stock installation from HTC that comes with the phone? Is uninstallation just that, ie, like any other application, and the device reverts to the stockset up before Max Manila was installed?
Apologies for the further questions. IF you do not have the time to respond in detail perhaps you could point me to a summary of Max manial, who it works, is installed, etc., if you know of such a resource.
Many thanks in advance for any further assistance that you are able to provide.

Basically Max Manila is a theme that installs over your manila and is completely uninstallable. What it does is gives you options for changing your clocks, addding more shortcuts, background for all tabs, etc.
Installing and uninstalling does not wipe any data, it is only for appearances and functionality.
You just find the cab that matches your manila build, but mostly it will be either the max 2.5 or 2.6 that work on your device. If it hoses up your phone and doesn't work, you just uninstall and try another version.
Sorry I can't be more complete but I too am suffering from year end woes as I am in Finance.

Hi Bruce
Thanks for the reply in spite of being set too with Year End.
I think that I have got the basics and as it is completely uninstallable I will be brave and give it a try. Interestingly enough if I am correct my TD2 uses Manila 2.1919xxx rather than 2.5xxxxxxx and so it look slike I am stuck with the first of the CABs given in one of the post in the thread that you have provided. If there are owners with Manila 2.5xxxxxxx loaded as standar on their TD2 then it looks like I have been unlucky...but there you go.
Have a great Festive break...and thanks again for your help.
Cheers

Glad I could help.
Have a great holiday too.
Manila Version
Hi
This is exactly what I have been looking for. However I dont know what my manila version is.
My ROM is the standard Uk T-Mobile 6.5 ROM.
I tried looking in the ABOUT settings, but that just has version numbers for os
it says CE OS 5.2.21854 (Build 21854.5.0.80)
I maybe being a bit of a doughnut here, but looking at the above.... is 2.21854 the Manila version?

Hi there
I have had trouble finding out the Manila version on my TD2 but believe that manila 2.5 is only officially, ie, by HTC ROM, for the Leo or HD2. Therefore it suggests that your official stock ROM is at Manila 2.1...like mine.
Will post back if I can find a way of finding the actual Manila version displayed.

Hi Bruce
Max Manila Theme for 2.1 successfully installed but I have a couple of small questions...if you would be kin enough to spare me the time:
1. Can this be installed on the SD card or must it be/is it better to install to the Device?
2. Is there any way of customising the settings that are shipped with MMT for 2.1? In the thread I have seen options but I am wondering of this is for the 2.5 version rather than the one that I am limited to given my Manila version.
Thanks in advance.

Hey Baldrick,
1. Install to device, it will not run from storage card.
2. Most development is continuing on the 2.5 and beyond. Some of the list of files are for 2.1, they should be identified as such but I don't recall.
Try a few clocks, backgrounds etc. if they don't work, you can always uninstall.
**Important**- ANYTHING that interfaces with your Home screen, contact programs, themes, clocks, any customizations must be installed on the device.
Happy Holidays.

Hi Bruce
Thanks for that. Have installed on the device...was just a thought.
Having trouble identifying add ons for 2.1 as most seem to be for 2.5, obviously...and I have not plan to install a 2.5 ROM.
Obviously the Settings options are new for 2.5 rather than 2.1...which is a shame but there you go. Can't even find the MMT folder under which you are supposed to install further customisations but I dare say I will take some time over the break to check my phone more carefully.
Thanks for your help.
Happy Holidays to you to!!!!
Hi guys,
Sorry to bother you, I did try searching the forum for similar threads, but I only found dead links and one old version of the cab.
Can someone please share the latest cab for TF3D, so I can use it on my Diamond. I've installed a ROM without any 3D interface, I tried SPB, but it's not my favorite.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Regards,
George

Enjoy it..It works for HTC touchflo.I dont know if it works on HTC sense
Hi Nikosdd,
Thanks a lot for taking your time. Unfortunately I don't need Touch Flo 3D Config (yet) because I don't have the Touch Flo 3D itself. I need the cab to install touchflo on my Diamond .
Thanks
Oh sorry but you dont need touchflo.Take the HTC sense 2.5 its the same but better
http://rapidshare.com/files/423312564/HTC_Sense_2.5.cab
Well... thanks, it's good to have the Sense too. But I wanted to try Touch Flo, because the Sense is too heavy on resources and I want to use something lighter...
Sorry but the link of rapidshare for a reason does not work.I will upload it again later.I will edit the post
link of rapidshare for a reason does not work, please give another thanks
