Recommended Posts

so far so good I have manilla up and running and i really like it however A couple of things. First how do you change the windows mobile upper and lower bars to be black as at the moment i can only use the standard colours ie the nearest I can get is grey.

Also I could not instal the 7th cab file 7.Enchasements.OUTLOOK.and.PICTURE will this have adverse effects on my phones functionality?

ANother thing I notice on the music and photo menus the menus seem to be a quater of the way up from the bottom of the screen is this normal. WHen i scroll through my music the lower section seems to repeat the text over and over also.

use diamondQVGA.tsk (theme)

Look at post #17 of this thread. Copy the HTCHomesettings.xml to your windows folder of your Omnia.

If your using vista then make sure explorer folder options are set ok e.g untick "hide protected operating system files" and select "show hidden files and folders"

settings. I can find it in comm manager but its blocked out.

Passao has got it working in his latest ROM which incl M2D. I am using his ROM and its pretty good, more memory free.

Did you install PsiDOC_Wifi_all.cab?

Afterwhich you need to edit this...

24. You will need to edit the registry to be able to use the CommManager to enable/disable WiFi. Go to HKLM/software/drivers/WLAN and check that AdapterName is JAGUARGSP1. Go to HKLM/software/HTC/CommManager/WLAN and replace the name after the \TNETW12511 with \JAGUARGSP1. DO NOT edit the contents in the brackets only the name after the \

Same thing by me as i allready described it abowe.

-no soft buttons (as one can see on the screenshots)

-no titels in the different tabs (as one can see on the screenshots)

-no weatheraplikation. Just have a blank screen.

-no texts in the setings tab, only icons (as one can see on the screenshots)

I had the same problem on my Simplified chinese Phone, But I got it fix.

I think it's a font link issue.

I did a font alias in registry to a chinese font pack and it works.

I am not sure about how to change it to a german font pack, hope someone can help you there.

I had one problem though, when I use album, the bottom band does not stay at the bottom, it stay in the middle of the screen, while I don't have this problem with other widget. Well, excpet the square left behind when you change from the program widget to others.

Touchflo is excellent - anyone thinking of updating should do it - you won't regret it. Thanks to Robf80 for pulling the instructions together.

One question - has anyone got iGo8 to work with Touchflo - read some earlier problems but can't see any confirmation of anyone getting them to work together. Thanks

Hi, just installed but can't get background to fill screen on any widget page. Works fine on the home page. Have tried several different xmls to no avail. Anyone else having this problem?

How do you do this step? Is this via your PC or Omnia. I'm not sure how you do this via the Omnia.

UPDATE #4 FULLY WORKING

Apologies to all! Never use a rubbish W2K machine to build a ZIP file. Every file seemed to be damaged somehow. I have now hard reset my phone and tested build by downloading file and following my own instructions and it all works.

UPDATE #1

I have been going through what programs are needed, not needed and programs that can be relocated and Manila 2D still work with improved memory.

NOT NEEDED

04.Album_Video_fix.cab (YouTube Video Fix - YouTube App doesn't work)

11.YouTubeQVGA 1_5_1819_1531.cab (Doesn't Work)

05.Task_Manager_2.1_34837.5.cab

08.Audio_Booster.cab (Don't Work)

09.Fullscreen_Player_1_05_080828_0.cab (Makes No Difference)

CAN BE INSTALLED ON LARGE INTERNAL MEMORY

12.GoogleMaps_compressed.CAB (Still needed to use Maps widget)

After doing this I was left with much improved memory running M2D :

STORAGE MEMORY : 20.46mb FREE

PROGRAM MEMORY : 46.73mb FREE

________________________________________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________

This is one of the best UI's for the Omnia to date and it runs extremely well. This is the latest M2D from herg62123 on xda-developers.

Here is my guide to getting Manila 2D working on a Samsung Omnia i900.

Landscape does not work and neither does the YouTube App.

Sorry forgot to add I have only tested this on i900DXHI3

You might want to rationalize the programs afterwards as when your done you will only have about 5mb storage memory left. I got rid of the YouTube Stuff.

I did not have any involvement in the development of the programs I have attached. Thank all the guys at XDA-Developers for their hard work.

1. Hard reset your device if you can (not compulsory but advisable)

2. Move the DiamondQVGA.tsk and Hh_fw_background.png in the "Files" folder to "My Documents" on your device

3. Go to "Settings" then "Today" and select "DiamondQVGA" theme

4. Open "Hh_fw_background.png" located in my documents on your device and set as "Today Background"

5. Disable any Items in the Today Settings

6. In the Manila folder install file "1". All CAB files should be installed on device main memory and not My storage.

7. After file is installed go back to "Today Items" in "Settings" and disable "TouchFlo"

8. I would soft reset at this point but probably not necessary

9. In the Manila folder install file "2" M2D Patch

10. I would soft reset at this point but probably not nessecary

11. Install the rest of the files 3 to 12 in the manila folder soft resetting the device if told to by the installations. Yes you do need to install Gmaps as it wont work in the M2D maps widget.

12. You now have a choice you can skip this and go to step 13 which is easier and better or you can - Leave the installation here and you will have a dark blue skin which will not fill your screen. You will have to edit HTCHomeSettings.xml located in the windows directory of your device, once edited to suit Omnia resolution you will need to put HTCHomeSettings.xml in the windows/manilaGFX directory of your device. You will also have to put hh_fw_background.png into the same directory. Jump to step 15.

13. The best way is to ignore step 12 and install file "13" in manila folder this will give the HTC Standard Theme which is nice.

14. For the MBarvian Touchflo 3d Skin I have already edited the HTCHomeSttings.xml to suit the omnia resolution. Move ._HTCHomeSttings.xml, HTCHomeSttings.xml and hh_fw_background.png from the manila/files folder to the windows folder of your device.

15. I would soft reset at this point but probably not necessary

16. When the device starts go to "settings" then "today" then "items" and enable "TouchFlo"

17. You will need to edit the registry to be able to use the CommManager to enable/disable WiFi. Go to HKLM/software/drivers/WLAN and check that AdapterName is JAGUARGSP1. Go to HKLM/software/HTC/CommManager/WLAN and replace the name after the \TNETW12511 with \JAGUARGSP1. DO NOT edit the contents in the brackets only the name after the \.

18. That should be it!

Here are the files.

Paul you might want to mediafire the file as some people have trouble with rapidshare

We need someone to write a short explanation of how to edit the registery key needed to get bluetooth working.

Also, how do you access the flashlight now? Can't see it in my programs B) I used to use it alot.

Bluetooth not working?? Didn't know there was a problem with bluetooth.

You need to edit the registry on your phone. Download a suitable reg editor there are plenty freeware.

Check some other threads about flashlight. I have seen some cab file to sort that out somewhere.

Just thought id leave my 2 cents..

Installed mostly how was described... however i already had the HTC album installed from another post, so i skipped the bits involving albums. This works fine for me.

Didnt bother with the 8mb step . and i used an xml file from someone on about page 7 on this thread. the file was about 61kb, as the one included didnt work at all.

I have done everything else the same, but am unable to get the WiFi working.... my fix was to disable the Settings tab using M2DC B) i didnt need anything in there, as i only really use the frontend for my day to day txt/calling/emailing. all using 3G/GSM and i manually enable WiFi using the usual windows interface.

Not sure why it didnt work though, i made the reg change and even did a hard reset just to be sure. Never mind though.

Will say one thing tho... its much smoother than the HTC Diamond interface, even if its not as fancy, much prefer it (ditched my Diamond 3 days after i had it due to battery life issues.

Jon

PS... got 8.7mb Storage and 53.83mb Program memory free...
