[Q] One of the quick links not working - HD2 General

Hi. Hope somebody could help me.
I updated my FB application (which was one of the quick links my home page). As I installed the new version of FB the icon on the quick links dissapperaed. i tried to add it again on the empy quick link space but it couldnt. I thought this was a problem with the newly added FB application, so i tried to add any other program or contact to that empty quick link but is never saves it. each time i try to press on the empty link (with the + sign) it takes me to the selection menu (programs/contacs/bookmarks). when i select any of the programs or contacts or bookmarks i go back to the home screen and the quick link is still empty.
Appreciate if somebody can assist me. I searched the forum but couldnt find an answer.
Thanks a lot
N.B. I am not using CHT, and on have a stock ROM for the Middle East

Had the same exact problem when I updated the Facebook app (ver 1.5)..I called T-Mobile support and they suggested soft reset (didn't work); spport person never heard of that problem, so it definately may be the FB update that caused problem.
Anyways, only solution was factory reset.....
so once that was done, I reinstalled FB (with update), and the quick links was working normally; then put everything back on phone via Sync, etc.

OOOps I am sorry you had to reset your HD2 I managed to solve the problem few hours ago.
I used the registry editor, and went to hklm/software/HTC/Manila/home (where the quick links are registered). There should be 9 folders numbered from 0 to 8. if any folder is missing this means one of the quick links will not work. So when you realize which folder is missing (from 0 to 8) you create a new folder and name it as the missing number. Then you copy the content of any of the other 8 folder and paste them into the new added folder. exit the registry editor and restart your device. the missing quick link will be working again.
I know what I wrote above is already late for you but hopefully it will be benificial for anybody who mght face the same problem.

'Touch Settings' Program for Vogue (aka Sprint Touch)

First - thank you to Carlos for his hard work on the original version and now for taking the time to update it for those of us using Sprint's touch. I'm starting this as a separate thread since the new beta version will have many issues unrelated to the original versions.
And, unfortunately, I get to start off with my first issue which occurs upon execution of the program.
A few moments after starting the program I get the follow error message...
System.ArgumentException: An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found at Microsoft.AGL.Common.MISC.HandleAr() at System.Drawing.Bitmap._InitFromMemoryStream() at System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor() at TouchSettings.Form1.load PBpictureFromPath()
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And then the error message scrolls off the screen without scroll bar for me to see what else it says...
Upon clicking the "OK" button, the program continues to load to the App Launcher screen.
Upon load, the App Launcher screen is empty. The screenshot, icons, path and program title are not populated.
When I click on the empty box where the screenshot should be located I get the same as as before and the program exits.
I can populate the App name and path fields and can also ad an Icon -- but only for one program. When I save and reset however, the app name, path and icons are not retained.
When returning to the program after the first entry, I continue to receive the same error and the App Launcher screen is again blank.
In Media Hub:
First - the screenshot displayed is from the other version of the Touch screens...with the bluegreen icons -- not yellow. I assume you know that, but just wanted to mention it.
The "Sprint Music" fields default to the ATC Audio Manager which, to my understanding, does not come on the Touch. I've already installed AudioManager so the link worked fine -- but I'd suggest defaulting it to Sprint's Java-based Music ap just like the stock set up (less confusion for noobs)
Sprint TV seems to work as expected.
On Demand also worked as expected.
I changed the settings for On Demand to point to \windows\HTCAlbum.exe, however, and upon re-boot I received the following error when trying to run it from the cube:
The file " cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(and that single quotation mark after the words "The file" is exactly what displays)
Weather appears to display properly. I haven't had a chance to test the auto update feature yet.
On the bright side - the About screen works perfectly. It's just as easy to send Carlos a beer as it was before!
Given that we'll soon have a Vogue forum started I also assume you'll probably want to update the Support Thread to include a link for "Sprint Support"??
Whew. That's all for the first 10 minutes.
THANK YOU CARLOS! Your hard work is appreciated!
My experience is exactly the same on the sprint touch.
Joe
I just wanted to drop in and say thanks for all your work Carlos!
Same problems still having problems with the app loader portion of the settings. The other settings work as they should.
ok well i made custom PNG's for Slingplayer mobile and opera, if anyone needs custom images let me know im makin em. BUt i need the sprint program to implement the images!
the original "Touch Settings" program that you're referring to will work with the Sprint Touch without any problems. You just have to know what you're doing....
Step 1: Download TaskMgr and copy to your phone. Place TaskMgr in the \windows\start menu\programs\ folder of your device.
Step 2: Run the TaskMgr program you just put on your device. Upon opening TaskMgr, a list of running processes will be displayed. You want to terminate the following processes; biotouch.exe, quickdial.exe, mediahubmini.exe and aplauncher.exe. To do this, select each one individually and then tap the "Close" button on the bottom of the screen.
Step 3: Download and install the TouchFlo Alpha cab below.
- 3a: upon successful completion of the installation you will be prompted to "Reset" your device. Click "NO".
4. navigate to the \windows\startup folder and delete any new links that were created.
5. navigate to the \windows\start menu\programs folder and delete "touchflo"
6. Download and install the Touch Settings Cab below. Again, at the completion of the installation it will prompt you to restart your device. SELECT NO!. You are not ready to reset your device just yet.
7. Now that you've killed the 4 processes, installed the touchflo alpha cab and the touch settings cab, we're almost done. Navigate to the \windows\startup folder and delete the mediahubmini link.
8. Soft Reset Device.
9. Launch "Touch Settings" program from the Start Menu.
10. BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES TO THE CUBE CLICK "SAVE". WAIT APPROXIMATELY 1 MINUTE AND THEN SOFT RESET AGAIN.
11. Run Touch Settings again and start customizing.
Hope this helps.
Later

Hi guys and thx Haggar and others for bug reports - I think I may have some theories as to what's going wrong.
I made a new test build for you to try out - the CAB is attached below. (REMOVED, SEE LATER POST FOR UPDATED VERSION) Please install and let me know how you get on. It should create a log file called log.txt in the app directory which you can attach to your post in case of any problems:
QUESTIONS:
1. Does it now work?
2. If not, what happens?
3. If not, please attach the log file.
4. When you go to the "About" screen, it says "Detected Device:" at the top - what is the detected device?
@utexas - I'm not sure what your instructions are referring to, but please ignore these peeps, as it would be best for us to try to get the app working properly with the Sprint without resorting to loading older versions of the TOuchFLO software onto your devices.
Finally, does anybody have a Sprint that they HAVENT yet installed Touch Settings onto? If so, please could somebody zip up a copy of \Windows\MediaHubMini.exe for me from your Sprint device and send it to me? This should be BEFORE installing any Touch Settings software, as this patches over the executable, and I'd like a copy of the NEW MediaHubMini.exe that comes with your device, so I can see if I need to release a new patch. If anyone has recently hard reset their device, then the file will be on your device unaltered.
Thanks for the nice comments peeps.
Carlos
Here you go Carlos. I have never installed Touch Settings on my Sprint Touch.
What exactly is Touch Settings? Could someone tell me, or point me to the original thread? Thanks.
Thanks Carlos... I've attached the log.txt file... still generating errors... looking for bitmaps (brns) that it cannot load... example... looking for \windows\AL_03.brn... this file is indeed located in the indicated location so not sure what the problem is...I tried to make and save a change to the launcher and now I get no images in the 3x2 launcher.

same here. but what i figured out about "no images in the launcher" is the path are all set to "\\" instead of just one "\". so i use memmaid to fix it in the registry and the cube is fine again.
OK everyone
Thanks for all the log files etc. It's now very clear what the issue is - simply that the newer version of the touch uses BRN files instead of PNG files for its icons! BRN is a proprietary format, basically a BMP with header information removed and some other changes; there's information elsewhere on this site about it.
So... ...to get Touch Settings working on the Sprint, I'll have to build BRN support into the program, which is going to involve:
1. Studying the file format and finding out more info. ([HREF="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325424"]this thread[/HREF] is a good starting point)
2. OR approaching the author of the BMP2BRN program to ask if he'd allow me to use his source code inside Touch Settings.
....if anyone can help with either of these, please do! Touch Settings is written in vb.net CF.
Until then, might I suggest you go about trying to use .PNG files instead for the time being, and report back to the forum to let us know if they work instead of BRN files! I will release a new build of Touch Settings asap which side-steps the error messages and displays blank icons for the time being, just so as you can use the program.. ..it will work fine, it just won't display the icons for you!

Mark, thanks ever so much for this - will be very helpful! Original thread about Touch Settings - and what it is - here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556

My log file also had the same info. Thanks for all your hard work Carlos. A friend of mine also has a touch that does not have any settings program installed. Let me know if you need any other files.
lol i had a post earlier about PNG and BRN files. Basically i want to be able to just chang the icons text and path. I dont care about the BG color, how how the cube rotates. I made my own CUstom PNG's for the 3X2 launcher, and i made a custom one for the media hub. I made them all the same size on accident, but for the sprint touch do i need to convert the PNG's to BRN files then where do i save them in my phones directory?
anyone have the dimensions for the 3X2 and the media hub. I made them all
119 by 105. ?? Is there an easy way to change the size to the size for the media hub because i believe that is the size for the 3X2. Any help is appreciated!

Carlos,
I see from reading another thread you've already got the source code for "BrnConvert"... does this meet your needs or do you need anything else?
Let us know what we can do to aid your efforts... 1.29c was close but I had to clean up my registry to remove all the double slashes in the image and program paths and obviously the brn issue you noted...
Again thanks for you great work on this...
Everyone else... don't forget to buy this man a beer at his Fatattitute.com web site
is there any new news on a possible fix?
Is version 1.29c worth installing at this point? Any recommendations??
Hello everyone - I think I may be nearly there!
I've certainly got BRN support working on my original touch, anyway, so let's see if this new build works for you.
CAB file attached below, usual installation instructions apply. (see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556)
Please let me know if the icons are displaying correctly, and any other feedback re: usage. Should be the correct colour mediahub logo too!
Carlos
PS: Sprint owners, for completeness, you may want to copy the newer mediahubmini.exe into your \Windows\ directory (attached) as my prog overwrites it with a slightly older version. My tests have shown this shouldn't be a problem, but it's up to you. Note to older Touch users: do NOT use this newer version of mediahubmini.exe you will run into problems with your touch screen.
so we install the cab then just replace the EXE file after.
also carlos, if i want to make my own icons
1. can they be the same size for the media hub and 3X2
2. Do they need to be BRN style, i made them PNG (but i can convert to BMP then to BRN.)
3. Where do i save them on my phone.
4. i have the sprint touch!
thanks carlos

How 'bout if you could add another seperate launcher tab with unlimited(maybe, I've added 48 already) shortcuts? Its another tab for tf3d, not a seperate plugin/app. I think I got that, still have to check something, but downside is you have to enter the shortcuts into xml file instead of linking directly from programs list. Good thing about the xml though, you can enter the link, arguments for the link, and an iconpath. If no iconpath is selected, then it will use chosen program's icon. Also with xml, you can save xml file so that after a flash or hard reset, just copy your custom xml back into windows again to get all setup again. I should have it altogether tonight if anyone's interested.

Ok, here's the files. I started on att manila(which is where tab comes from) and now have it running on non att manila(. This has been tested with ONYX theme which is using the latest htc manila version(1.2.35845.1_1813.6), which is where pics came from. I had up to 48 shortcuts made up, so I don't think it has a limit. It can be an odd number of shortcuts, doesn't have to have 3 on last row.
Its made from the ATT tab that was used for ATT specific links. I removed the ATT links and images. I added the tab icon links for tab bar back into the icons.mode9 file, 61f866ab_manila. Included lua scripts and ATT tab icons (1a5a121d_manila and 2e35e5f2_manila) which you can change to match your theme. The heart of it is the att_tabitems.xml which is where you have to edit your links for the shortcuts. All of files in zip need to be placed into \Windows folder on your phone. I can't make a cab, because you will have to edit the xml file to use this first. You can make shortcuts to open web links, files, folders, or apps. IconPath can point anywhere? or left blank. The softkeys are also set in the xml, so make them what you want. They currently connect to home and programs tabs of tf3d.
Here's some examples of xml, in these I was linking to icons folder I made in root of device named Realize(from the realize icon set).
App Link
Code:
<ATTtabItem
Name="Total Commander"
Path="\Program Files\Total Commander\cecmd.exe"
Arguments=""
IconPath="\Realize\TotalCommander.png"/>
Web Links
Code:
<ATTtabItem
Name="Opera"
Path="\Windows\OperaL.exe"
Arguments="http://m.google.com"
IconPath="\Realize\Opera95.png"/>
<ATTtabItem
Name="Google"
Path=":DEFBROWSER"
Arguments="http://forum.xda-developers.com"
IconPath="\Realize\GoogleNew.png"/>
<ATTtabItem
Name="Ebay"
Path="\Windows\iexplore.exe"
Arguments="http://ebay.com"
IconPath="\Realize\ebay.png"/>
Folder/file links
Code:
<ATTtabItem
Name="Games"
Path="\Windows\fexplore.exe"
Arguments="\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games"
IconPath="\Realize\Poker.png"/>
Soft Keys
Code:
<Softkey>
<LSK Path="\Windows\manila.exe" Arguments="--switchtopage Manila://home.page" Text="Home"/>
<RSK Path="\Windows\manila.exe" Arguments="--switchtopage Manila://programs.page" Text="Programs"/>
</Softkey>
You will also have to add this tab page to your 26948339_manila file for tf3d pages. Use the following code, just change page number to fit your xml.
Code:
<Page Order="10" Name="atttab.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="Launcher">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\ATTtab.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_normal" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="ATTAtt_Off" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_selected" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="ATTAtt_On" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_preview" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="ATTAtt_Preview" />
</Page>
Thanks Showaco.....Great work indeed !!
However, I would like to bother you a bit more.....
- I'm not sure which files I need to replace.
- Is your solution specific to ATT ? I use an unlocked version with original 1.93 ROM.
- I don't have any themes installed....I hope that shouldn't be a deterrent though.
Please help !

does'nt HD Manila have more program tabs than diamond manila? I am sure i saw this on Vic's latest rom.....
A New Great Work Again
Hi Showaco.
Thanks for the new great work. I am also following your thread on Raphael "BBExtreme 4.0 the REMIX ". I think you nearly solve every details related with manila
Could you please help me to fix "HD People Tab" prb that not works properly at my Diamond, Official ROM 1.35 ?
I do not want to get details here, can I send message to you from PM ?
(I try to find a solution myself by learning , sorry searching manila prg, get into details of m9editor,lua scripts,mode9 file....
But as you can guess, I was not able to find a solution )
Waiting your response,
Many Thanks
Great work Showaco!
One quick question....could you please tell me if it is possible to change the default icon size on the program screen?
I am trying to ditch the square button backgrounds and use larger 128x128 icons.
Any help would be appreciated!
The Cab Version
All the thanks to Showaco for this great application / add-in
For the people like me, how want to have this wonderfull utility, but are afraid to damage their manila (not want to hard-reset their phone).
I want to share my CAB file that is working at my Diamond with Official,Stock Rom Ver 1.35, Manila TF3D 1.0.1630.15, without any themes installed.
This cab is created according to the guide given by Showaco.
This cab will add new Launcher page as page-10, just near to Application Tab. All icons used in that cab are standard icons already install at your phone.
You can try and see if it works for you. Do not worry, UNINSTALL is working perfect, At least works for me.
NOTE: It has also been reported that CAB uninstallation may not work properly in same cases, like using a different language, not English.
But please do not forget that **INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK" **
NOTE: This cab will not work if you are using a different language,not English.
So please before trying my cab, please take a full back-up of your phone or at least take the original copy of the following files from your phone "\Windows" folder if it is exist.
"1a5a121d_manila, 2e35e5f2_manila, 4e061a9c_manila, 5e8e48df_manila, 7b1bc561_manila, 36d20e8f_manila, 61f866ab_manila, 586d37b6_manila, 786c5ee1_manila, 7564a2d6_manila, 26948339_manila, att_tabitems.xml
(At my phone, I only find 3 files; 61f866ab_manila, 7564a2d6_manila, 26948339_manila)

I tried the cab version, with rom 2.03 greek. It totally screw up my phone.. The new tab was added but language went to english , softkey was gone, telephone provider changed, and many other. I uninstalled but some problems still remain so i need format .

If it does not work you, then you can create your own CAB.
Here is the installation steps;
Upload CAB to phone
Turn off TF3D
Soft Reset to make sure nothing is still in memory
Install CAB to phone
After installation soft-reset will be asked.
Turn on TF3D
Configuration Your Launcher
You can modify ""att_tabitems.xml" at your PC by using Notepad. After the modification is done connect your PDA with Act and copy "att_tabitems.xml" file into your PDA "\Windows" Folder. The new configuration will work. (No need to turn off TF3D or make a soft-reset)
Please report your test results with your phone configuration. If it works without any prb, then we can share this great Showaco add-in as an manila application
Although I am not a expert like Showaco , please find my answers that may help you

I try to explain what I have done. I take all the files from Showaco, except "26948339_manila" file and then modify it according to guide. Actually if you check your phone manila files, you will find only 3 files (26948339_manila,61f866ab_manila,7564a2d6_manila).
Please check all the files supplied by Showaco with your phone. Take the original copies into your PC. And then give a try
Also you can use my CAB file which has Uninstall facility. If it works for you, then no prb. Otherwise, you can uninstall and give a try by yourself

I really do not want to get you trouble like that. I was trying to help some guys who are not so familiar with manila files like me

Νo problem man. When i tried i knew there was a risk . I write it for others to know that there is a risk. After uninstalled everything went back to normal except of the icons of manila . All the icons looks like 2 times. I dont know how to describe it .When you move your finger to go from the one icon to other, the next icon (to which you move your finger) shows before you go to it. Does anyone have an idea if i can restore that?
Thanks,
I tried and the manila files of showaco and it works ok ,but i still have this problem..
The key in registry for programm tab shortcuts are here:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
Originally it has keys from 0 to 17 which respond to respective shortcuts. Adding new equal to adding new shortcut. .
For example:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\0
(ab)DispName Bubble Breaker
(ab)IconPath
(dw)IsReadOnly 0
(ab)Path \Windows\Main Menu\Games\Bubble Breaker.lnk
ab - string parametrs
dw - dword
If you add new one, for example
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\20
(ab)DispName
(ab)IconPath
(dw)IsReadOnly 0
(ab)Path
You will be able to see one more empty space for icon on program launcher tab.
If you set the parametr (dw)IsReadOnly to 1 you won't be able to remove the shortcut from program launcher tab (you would nee to change parametr back to 0 in registry first).
MrLAG said:
The key in registry for programm tab shortcuts are here:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
Originally it has keys from 0 to 17 which respond to respective shortcuts. Adding new equal to adding new shortcut. .
For example:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\0
(ab)DispName Bubble Breaker
(ab)IconPath
(dw)IsReadOnly 0
(ab)Path \Windows\Main Menu\Games\Bubble Breaker.lnk
ab - string parametrs
dw - dword
If you add new one, for example
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\20
(ab)DispName
(ab)IconPath
(dw)IsReadOnly 0
(ab)Path
You will be able to see one more empty space for icon on program launcher tab.
If you set the parametr (dw)IsReadOnly to 1 you won't be able to remove the shortcut from program launcher tab (you would nee to change parametr back to 0 in registry first).

Thanks but, i tried it and, i found out that you can ad as many empty tab shortcuts, but when you click to one of them to ad a shortcut for a program, after you have ad 18 shortcuts , you cant ad another one. If you find how to solve this it would be amazing ..
anyone find how to ad more than 18 items?
I get that there are 18 spots to add shortcuts but half of myne are filled with pre-set programs that came with the phone. When I try to delete them they have a little padlock on the corner of them and I can not delete from there.
Anyone know how to delete these? Someplace in the system folders there has to be a way...
That is correct, i have the same problem.
I have 18 quick url's, and i can add a new link. What happens though is the following:
x x x
x x x
etc.
x x y
z
"x" == link to an application (or other if applicable)
"y" == 18th "n"
"z" == button to add lnk
the y is the 18th lnk, the z is the button containing the "+" that makes it possible to add a nineteenth lnk.
The problem is that clicking "z" opens the correct menu, but after selecting a program, the icon remains empty (a standard black/gray icon with rounded edges and _no_plus in in) and clicking the button doesn't trigger an action as far as i've experienced it. There is however created a new icon with a "+" in it, resulting in:
n n n
n n n
etc.
n n m
o p
"n" == link to an application (or other if applicable)
"m" == 18th "n"
"o" == button with no content, clicking has no effect
"p" == button to add lnk
In this situation "m" is the 18th lnk, o is number 19, a lnk with no content, a black/gray button with rounded edges containing no icon. "p" Is the 20th icon, black/gray, rounded edges containing a plus.
Clicking icon "p" results in "p" turning into another "o" and an additional icon which acts as "p" did previously:
n n n
n n n
etc.
n n m
o o p
"n" == link to an application (or other if applicable)
"m" == 18th "n"
"o" == button with no content, clicking has no effect
"p" == button to add lnk
It is 1.20AM in the netherlands now, i've had some booze but i hope i've explained the problem good enough.
edit: i forgot to mention that i am wondering too how to add a 19th lnk, new buttons get added but the don't give any desired response.

How do you add a location to AccuWeather?

I would like to add Galway(Ireland) to AccuWeather but I am finding difficult to add the Code for Galway! Found a thread that explains it for another htc model but I can not get round doing it on the Touch 3G!
Any suggestions?
Many thanks Woodie

You may have to edit this file in \windows : HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml
0409 (english) is your language code, other languages have different codes.
Ensure that your city (and corresponding codes, available from accuweather website) is in the list.
Hi,
As this topic is here, let me ask my trouble here;
I have WM6.5 w/ Manila2D, I have lost my selected cities from weather widget in Manila.
I can not add any city, even if all city lists exists and I am able to select. But it does not display weather widget screen..
This also happened before when I have had another Rom and Softreset is not useful at all..
Anyone has such trouble?
Anyone has resolution?

Try this.. rename file \windows\HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml to HH_0199_WeatherCities.xml. (keep a copy of the original file somewhere)

Unfortunatelly, dealing (renaming, deleting, moving) with such file is impossible although while TFlo is not active..
Tried w/ Resco and extended File explorer (not seeing/showing), Total commander sees but not executes any command except copying..
Doing thru laptop with vista also sucks due to not showing windows files..

I'm not sure why.. but I have renamed mine. The file should not be protected. It's not in ROM.
Try this.. disable TF ->> use TC, properties - uncheck "system" - rename.
It is Rom file..
Not possible to uncheck any box overthere..
Not possible to handle..
Hi all
Same problem here!
Here is what I have done so far
1. Copied HH_409 bla bla file to pc.
2. Edited file with correct data from accuweather.
3. Using total comander removed the read only state from the original file in /windows directory.
4. replaced standard 409 with my version.
5. soft reset
and........ I can choose the cities from the list now but they will not update.
So now I am stuck
if any of you (azahidi ;-) have managed to crack this problem please help me get further.
If you want to try one of my cities to ensure that it is not me doing it wrong here is the line from the xml for one city
Code:
<city name="Newquay, UK" loca="EUR|UK|UK125|Newquay" land="United Kingdom"/>

I am not sure why, but I can add and update any city in the list, including many in the UK (e.g. Newbury, newport, newham, newcastle-under-lyme but unfortunately newquay is not). I'll try to add newquay in xml file and see what happens.. I'll post the result later.
btw can you try and do item #8 of first post and see.
This thread here may also be useful http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476167&highlight=weather&page=2
Tried item 8 and lost control of most of the phone took 1 hour to dig my way back out.

Cannot ? Even in http://www.accuweather.com ? Search for your city/town in "world" link
If found, the code is like this: http://www..... traveler=0&loccode=ASI|MY|MY004|LABUAN
Sorry if I'm telling the obvious.

Vodafone uk users only

Hi Guys,
As you are aware we are waiting for the HardSPL, but in the mean time, can you share what Theme you are using which has no issues on your TP2...a cab file would be nice.
This way we know what works on our Vodafone UK branded phones.
Thanks in Advance....
There are a few threads on here dealing with this. But the gist is:
Download this
http://www.4shared.com/file/109330961/b9be5561/TF3DIIBlack.html
Before installing it copy the "2330fc3c_manila" file from the windows directory and put it back after installation. When installing DO NOT let your screen turn off!!! and it takes AGES to install, about 20-30 minutes.
Once it is installed, reboot and you have the default HTC black TF3D theme, with white fonts. You can then install any theme you want without CFC compression

Thanks for That Stunno.
Anyone else use different cabs or use another method ?
Im using this:

Lets you install custom icon sets, font colours, clocks, sliders and shake to change wallpapers!
Its fairly easy to use and loads of different styles out there
Thanks for sharing that ashtemple.
Anymore Vodafone UK users out thier with thier TP2's ?
I know you arent using the crappy theme from vodafone , let us know what you use so that we can share each others themes...saves us all the time and hassle.
Sharing is good....
Let us know
Thanks for the people who have shared thier experience in this...come on people
Thanks Stunno, I have done this, but I think I have cocked up slightly, I did not re-install the manilla file before re-booting, my weather is in French, I assume this would have changed it? I am now unable to install as presumably this will not let you whilst touch flo is running? can I switch off touch flo to re-install this file?
NOW WORKING
how did you remove the file, and get it back? i get perms errors..? thanks.

Use Total Commander or the Resco file manager to copy the file
I copied a couple of times and also got the permission errors, but I think it did actually copy, when I went back into weather it was in English (may have soft reset in the interim)

Just to confirm to people that the above works like a dream. BUT FOLLOW / READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
For users that dont want to twinker to much in regards to copy this file, save this file, cut this file, paste the file...install another app etc.... USE THIS.
Simple install and a simple tweak and thats it. You are up and running.
I used MaxTT but for me I'm happy with Stunno's method.
Once again thanks for the guys who have posted !!
Thanks Stunno.
Works perfectly.
People might like to make a note of the programs they have on their quick launch "start page" as these need to be setup again.
Rgs,

I'm having trouble with reestablishing Facbook,
I can edit the first of the reg files, but the next two won't open for some reason. I'm using total Commander to edit them.
I've managed to change facebook.disable value to 0, but that's about it, any help appreciated!
I followed the instructions given in these threads, except I copied the manila file after installing. I disabled TF3D, copied the manila, restarted TF3D. It works beautifully.
I also installed from the numerous icon packs and different background from the HDwall collection and my TP2 doesn't look at all like the one shipped by VF.
Go for it guys. Just go for it.

It flies down for me, but here is a Rapidshare link that should be ok
http://rapidshare.com/files/266258710/TF3DIIBlack.zip
I have removed the "vodafone-ism" and done the registry changes to enable facebook, but when I go into updates and events, and click on the "link profiles" it asks me to select my friends and save photo's /birthday, but when I click on done it just goes back to the previous page, and won't link to facebook.

I had this issue too, to work around this just go into the individual contacts that are not linked, select "edit contact" then scroll down to the Facebook link and select the contact from your list there.

Tried that but it doesn't give me the option to link to facebook, I thin there should be tick boxes, but these are missing.
