I've installed RealVGA and am running 96 dpi. I installed the M2D and everything seems to be running fine, but it isn't expanded to the whole screen. Anyone have a fix? I've been struggling with this crap for a couple days now..
nm.. i fixed that part so it expands to the whole screen by copying the htc home settings file to my registry, but now it's glitchy on the right side when switching between tabs
can you explain? i used m2d for a bit, but in the end i decided it wasnt worth it, because all the extras that go with it are very incompatible. screenshot would be nice =] im a noob for the most part, but i can try to help you out. i know that manila in one cab is a great way to go. personally though i use titanium on my flashed rom

Hi Guys.
Been lurking for a while but this is my first post. I have tried to do as much self research as I can, lots of searches and link chasing etc but feel like I have gone as far as I can on my own. If I have missed something obvious, or just been plain stupid, then I apologise in advance, but we all got to make mistakes, right?
Ok, I have been trying to get weather Data for custom cities on my polaris (with manila2d). I have been able to edit the XML and the custom cities show up in the list in the weather tab, but when i try to update, it says unable to retrieve date. This only happens with the custom cities, all others work fine.
I have tried to follow various threads relating to editing the connection, both by connection setings, and pocket hosts but still have no luck.
I then tried to follow the various stages of N2A's thread, but it seems the only current working way involves a patched HTChome.dll, which I believe manila does not have?
I read into editing the registry to get weather to work in TF3D and tried to do something similar, but again, nothing.
I have managed to get it to work whilst running TF3D and WeatherDatabaseEditor but was not happy enough with the running(bit laggy) of TF3D to use it day to day so reverted back to 2D, and WDE does not work with 2D.
So I now seem stuck. At the moment I am runnin SPB shell (with weather) with a diamond theme, on a second today screen as a sort of work around, but its hardly perfect.
Have any of you guys got weather to work with Manila 2D, or have any sugestions for further reading?
Thanks for any help

What ROM you running? most of the custom ROMs have this built in (already working).
So I keep reading, but out of the ones I have tried, none seem to work, though it could just be me being inept. Currently running 3lite3 Full but just about to try KhanX Touch Navia 1.5, fingers crossed...
Is working well with Shiwani's R1 diamond, which seems to be a nice rom btw.
Thanks for help

Has anyone tried to install the Dusk theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=518479 at all?
I'm after a minimalistic black theme and this one looks great - but once installed TF3D wont start! Been chatting to the developer of the theme but no luck as yet!
Cheers,
J.
i got mine working on TP2, but i never liked it. Tried to uninstall it and that never worked, so i had to hard reset. i wont install any themes until we get a program like cusomiser for diamond that can put back the original theme easy, and works with theme files.
What did you do to get it working - anything special at all?
Can you remember which Dusk version you installed?
J.
Just try the Manila 2.0/2.1 version!
yeah
i believe thats the version i tried.
Nothing special happened, no troublesome first steps, jest click the cab once.
I couldnt stand how it overshadowed the upper part of the icons lol.
I almost bit off my tongue when i realised i had to hard reset to get it away .
oh well, no themes for me until and IF we get the manila customizer.
The themes that are out for anything other then the true Rhodium will fail to work properly as usual there have been a few changes made to the software that are not cross platform specific the custom Naughty By Nature theme I built I orignally started on the HD running a TP2 interface it worked perfect on that but when I got the TP2 and loaded this theme it failed... I had to redo about 60% of my theme to make it work correctly on the TP2. You can experiment with small changes such as the icons and such but for now I think I have the only working fully custom theme for the Stock Pro2.
If you would like to see it go check out facebook/windowsmobile and look at the videos posted there.
it would be fantastic to have that theme ported over to the TP2.
although it might be a bad idea with 6.5 coming soon(ish) and whatever changes that brings to Touchflo.
doesnt seem to do anything on the mogul/titan//6800
Tilt 2
I don't know much about any of this stuff but i've been tinkering with my new Tilt2 phone from At&t and I've gotten most of the dusk themed stuff to work using .cab files. I however can't get the tf3d to start for the life of me. been looking for fixes everywhere help me? I got my everything but that and the changing background of all tabs fixed up - still looking for the one that used to work on my pure.
Hello,
I recently flashed my TP2 for the first time to CookieMonster's Hometab Manila 2.5.201225. I installed hdwalls without any trouble, however when i attempted to select a backround it just gave me a never ending spinning wheel. Then when i tried to restart, TF3D would not function properly and the phone became very glitchy. I have so far done 3 hard resets and no luck.
Any ideas?
Could be several things. Did you install the HQwallpaper patch which corresponds to the Manila version?
Did you install the latest HDwalls?
Did you make sure the background cab was made for Sense 2.5?
Other than that, I can't think of anything that might cause it.
yes, i installed HDwalls .24b and HQwallpaper patch 2.5.20xx. However when i try to install the backround cab i still get the loading screen and when i try to install the cab manually it asks me to disable TF3D which after that the phone does not function properly
I've had different problems with HDWall, after a lot of frustration i was pointed in the direction of BGtweak which also has its own thread on xda, i would suggest you take a look at that and see if that suits you, its pretty decent for myself on a 21090 build of sense 2.5 with GTX by energy for an att tp2

I just got my HTC Touch Pro 2 2 months ago, and it came with Mobile 6.5. Ever since, I've been screwing with it, and I just landed on this forum as well as some other sites. I'm seeing people using words like TF3D, Manila, Sense, etc, which I have no idea what they are.
I'm just trying to figure out how to make my clock transparent, background on all pages and play divx/xvid videos. I found a 9 page long BG for all pages thread, and I found a cab that worked to make all pages the wallpaper, but it messed up my clock in the process. The accompanying cab to restore the clock didn't work. The screenshot of the clock is attached to this post.
I noticed no divx/xvid capability in WMP just like the Windows for Desktops, but it seems like getting those videos to play was more complicated than I thought. I tried the divx player which is just slow. Can someone guide a newbie around?
The easiest way...
Deleted as the post did not apply to Sense 2.1
He isn't using manila 2.5.
Sense/manila are the same thing, it's just that older versions of manila were called the TouchFlo (TF3D) and the newest builds which are manila 2.1 and manila 2.5 are also referred to as sense 2.1 and sense 2.5. How you can tell which you have is going on the settings tab and looking at the "About" (or something lol sorry) and it should say. Another way is seeing as how you don't have any shortcut buttons on your Home tab means 2.1 .
Sorry I can't help you with your clock issue, try looking up "sense 2.1 clock" and try installing one but keep in mine the details as to what else will be installed along side the clock .
Get TCPMP for playing videos. It won't play everything, but is far better then WMP. Best player around for the TP2.

If the cab you installed messed up your clock, try uninstalling the cab.
Got transparent clock and BG on all pages working for 2.1, using the 3 cabs I've attached.
Only things left I'm working on are 1% battery meter and the 1:02 clock flip fix. I found a clock cab I'll install now. The battery meter I heard requires custom taskbars to show it? Just gotta dig around more to find out which ones will work.

be careful about what you try to use! check your manila version. most of cookies stuff is for 2.5, as well as most of the stuff on here and it can bite you if your not careful(had to do several hard resets when i got mine because i did't read) i got my phone in feb. but it still has 2.1 so unless your ready to flash a rom to upgrade, store all of your cabs on your storage card to save yourself some headaches.
Sorry about that. I didn't realize you were using Sense 2.1. Hopefully no damage done.

No worries. Still learning about this stuff myself. Working on getting stuff off my ipod and onto my phone but I have a handful of DRM protected things. That's a bit more complicated than I thought. Once I can work around that, get my usb -> headset adapter and a fm transmitter, I'll have succeeded in combining my Samsung Gravity, iPod Nano, and iPod Touch into one device: HTC Touch Pro 2.
Well folks,
Good morning everyone, I have a serious problem ... lol.
I have tried all (I said all) roms from this site amazing and wonderful. I love the design manilla 2d and hate the titanium.
My problem is: I do not think a WM6.5 ROM with manila 2d to not get warning "low memory" on my htc touch elf. I already tried installing the Manila 2d on a clean ROM with wm 6.1 htc touch, but it was good.
Another problem I have: I want to qualqur cost the digital clock that comes in manila, it is very beautiful ... the problem is that whenever I finish any connection, or some program and put on the screen at home, the hours go back one hour behind by about 2 seconds and return to normal again. That's a bummer, I tried in HKLM to change the delay time, but only solved the delay when the phone is in sleep mode and switches to normal mode.
Please, if someone can help me, I need a rom with manilla already installed, but it uses little memory in order to install a ROM 6.5 with manila already included.
Thank you in advance.
Vincent.
Not quite sure what you are asking here (its early and I'm not quite with it) bt I'll reply anyways.
From what I understand, your installs of Manilla 2D are taking up to much space on your installs, leaving you less space to sinatll apps straight to the phone?
Have you tried all of the mods in [UPG] P_D Optimizations [03.14.10: ELFin HD2 Theme] ? This has a lot of tweaks and space saving optimisations for the Elf(in) and are very well explained as well. Could be worth a shot.
Hope this helps.
Stu
Thanks a lot capitanstu72, i will try this, optmized my htc elf and put results here.
Again, thanks.
I tried to put the custom theme that I indicated, but the theme will not boot, it worked.
I'm confused to what you mean. You say it didn't boot, but it worked? How so?
Have you tried using M2DC to remove some tabs to see if it works. You may have to disable footprints unless you have installed that part seperately.
try milky 6682 if u havent tried it ..... consumes 34mb memory on default
