and what is the difference between 2d and 3d manila?
L26 had a rom called Throttle Launcher. It seems alot like the Manila but it was able to be customized ALOT. I'd like a LITTLE more modification ability. Like, adding to the internet tab, changing the default analog clock to something like Pocket Digital Clock, getting rid of the envelops on the Email and Messaging Tab.
Plain Rom Question:
What ROM is the most PLAIN broken down copy of win mo 6.1?
at&t? htc? Like NOTHING!! except the OS.. I'll install my own cabs.
User Customize question:
do the cabs have to be on top most folder level or can they be in a sub folder called "root"?
you can install from cabs you need to look that up it is everywhere.
roms stripped to the core are usually called lite roms or ultra lite roms.
throttle launcher was a program used to emulate 3d with is the real version that 2d was derived from (it was used before porting manilla 2d to other htc phone and now more than just htc phones)
throttle is really heavy and slow.
manilla can be customized. again look it up.
you will need manilla 2d if you have a kaiser.
Take a stripped ROM and have plain Manilla 2d without Throttle so you may have some better performance.

This is for manilla: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
and this is for akdonny's supa-clean ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410601
Allways the latest OS Build and no apps, not even the camera. If u go for it, have a look at my setup for setting it up, especially if u have a Kaiser not a Tilt.

Just wondering if there is a WM6 ROM that has all of the nice, erm, touches, of the touchflo ROMs but without the touchflo running behind the scenes. Basically the today plugin, the comm manager, and especially the though phone dialer skin. I find the touch phone dialer skin to be far superior to the standard one.
Or does the touchflo give me something besides the cube (which I just have not really managed to find very useful thus far).
There is a cab file for the phone dialer skin and the today app just search for it. Actually you can find them here

NBD 7.3
i'm still running 7.3 because i don't like touchflo
I was wondering if anyone has started a app that has the same type of contacts tab that touchflo 3d is running, if so is there a .cab file and is it possible to make it run with Touchflo 2d?
You can't use the same contacts widget on TF2D. You can create your own using flash and use it with FEWidgets/ThrottleLauncher.. if you want to request the creation of such a widget look for FEWidgets widgets creation thread and post a request there.
So I would be able to implement a flash tab into throttlelauncher but not touchflo 2d....is there any thoughts of someone porting over that option or is there yet an actual manilla touchflo 3d cab ported over, or a rom with that packed into it to be used on other HTC devices?
TF3D was ported but is now still in it's infant stages. Also, it requires a massive amount of power and has a few bugs. you will need a strong device to run it properly.
Could you possibly give me the link to the thread were they ported it and uploaed or where they are talking about it..and also when you say a really fast device are you meaning a top wm6 device or would something like the AT&T tilt be able to run it but very laggy, sorry about all the questions..always hoping to learn more.

Look into the Kaiser ROM development thread, There are a few ROMs with TF3D cooked into them! I have a tilt running the L26 V4 TF3D ROM, and it works great for daily use! Very stable and its eye candy! Check it out! And read everything you can!
i cant find a manila tf3d cab from a touch diamond pro to put on my fuze i have looked and looked can someone help plezzz
What exactly are you trying to change about TouchFLO?
If you're trying to improve performance, I don't believe there's any advantage to the HTC OEM TF3D vs the AT&T branded one. In fact, installing it again will just take up more memory, which is more likely to decrease performance. Try installing Touch Pro Tweak/Diamond Tweak and using it to tweak TouchFLO for speed.
If you're trying to remove the AT&T tab, there are several Manila (codename for TF3D) customizers which will do this; they also allow you to make other modifications.
If you want a 'better' TF3D, there are TF3D2 "Rhodium Manila" beta cabs sitting around; I don't believe any of them are perfect, but the newer ones seem to be working pretty nicely (i.e. no major usability glitches).
If you really want to improve how the phone works, including how TouchFLO works, you can flash a new ROM. There are dozens of guides floating around on how to do it, and as long as you're careful, the process is reversible so you can still send the phone to AT&T if you have a warranty complaint.
i have the oem for tf3d1 cfc with the original htc theme. you can prolly put it into a cab or grab the files you need or something. im not sure if it will install over. i put it into the kitchen when im building.
i used to have a tilt and i would soft reset it before att would load all their bull i did that on my fuze and tf3d wasn't there thats why i need a tf3d cab i tryed the rhodium cad and every thing didn't work like my email and i want a youtube short cut on the internet tab and the theme sucks i need someone to sit down and show me how to flash a rom i read all the threads about it but im a hands on person so thats where im at on roms
Ok so i can change the theme but its hard finding one that works well i have the HTC black theme but it makes the touchflo run vary vary slow even when i tweak the memory setting but what really want is to get the youtube shortcut on the internet tab can someone help me with that
Look here for several tweaks that will have your phone running like a champ. Mine is like a new phone after going through the thread.
What do you want to see in a ROM?

New dialer from HTC has that function...
hmmm, perfect ROM...
I want WinMo6.5 with old gui,
much free RAM (20MB+),
with Chome editor, secondtoday, homescreen++, network wizard, HTC home plugin, MS office, HTC Audio Manager, HTC Album....,
without manilla
wm 6.5.X + manila 2d
wm 6.5.X + manila 2d
I want a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM with the following:
1. MS Office, Internet Explorer, calculator, etc. (the stuff you kind of assume comes with Windows Mobile)
2. Touch scrolling (I don't know if that's normally part of 6.1 or not...)
3. Some kind of connection setup wizard with T-Mobile for the US as an option
4. The HTC task manager would also be nice, but optional
5. My primary language is English, so I would prefer an English ROM
So I pretty much just want a pretty clean WM6.1 ROM... I feel like something like this should exist, but I haven't really been satisfied by any ROM I have tried so far. Does anyone know of one like this that already exists?
EDIT (this is for a future post because I don't want to take this off topic more): Thanks LivArt; I hadn't tried his yet. The included programs he listed always looked further from clean than I was hoping for. I finally flashed it and it's pretty good.
exhno: cracings last 6.1
I want a WM6.5 New GUI. like Cracing's ROM without Manila 2D.

New GUI is good. Like manilla 2.5
What I want in a ROM
a) Stable. Most ROMs nowadays are stable, but I remember when they crashed a lot.
b) Enough free RAM to run programs, without having to reboot. I really like the latest CRACING rom, except that there are several programs that won't launch unless I've just rebooted.
c) Fast. For our poor Wizard, that usually means overclocking support. So build in TodayScreen++ or some other overclocker. And make it fast even without overclocking.
d) Finished. Don't give me dead links, like on the Internet panel of M2D. Don't leave out camera or MMS either. Naked is okay, but what is in the rom needs to be complete, and seem not like a work in progress.
e) Some things just work better when in a ROM, like M2D and Office. Put those in, whether I use them or not.
f) Anything that would run fine in Storage Card, or anything that is being actively developed so that new versions are coming out, keep those OUT of the rom.
Of the roms available on these forums, I like the following quite a bit.
This isn't ordered: I have a hard time picking a favorite. Don't believe my signature: I'm running RoryB's latest rom today.
S.V.I. / RoryB's Angel series: best 6.1 complete
CRACING's CR96 Touch HD series: best 6.5 complete
xda2_haseeb: some awesome 6.5 roms, looking forward to the New Year
md_bluelily's MSD series: best 6.5 naked
Any of the "alpha" roms by Ham3r: awesome 6.5 and best 6.1 naked rom.
In terms of home screens:
Chome is nice but a bit too minimal, and disables the old plugins.
M2D is beautiful and functional but takes too much ram, disables old plugins.
HTC Home is simple, good enough, works with plugins.
SPB 3.5 is best, fully functional, less ram than M2D, works with plugins.
But you can't put SPB in your rom (it's commercial).
So I'd vote for (in order) HTC Home, CHome, M2D.
Which OS?
I like it fingerfriendly so I would prefer WM6.5.x (with new style GUI).
Which TodayScreen?
M2D looks good but needs a lot of packages (and space) in the kitchen. It also eats up a way to much RAM. If you want other features with M2D you can not use additional today-plugins and last but not least our wizard has a slide-out keyboard and even the new M2D 2.0 has no real landscape-mode.
CHome does not need so much RAM, it has a landsacape-mode and there are already quit a lot of extra plugins. But you need special CHome-plugins and you cannot use normal today-plugins, it does not look good and the features and the controll are just to minimal.
HTC-Home is quit old but it works in landscape, needs only very little RAM and you can still run other today-plugins (like calendar+). It has no slide-effects but still is extremly fingerfriendly.
For me HTC Home (with calendar+) is still the best!
Which additional Software?
With HTC Home you don't need CHome Editor or M2DC. I don't even use HTC Home Config.
With WM6.5.x (without M2D) you also don't need extra touchflo stuff.
Important software:
- Total Commander
- WM5torage
- calendar+
- HTC Album (2.x works much better than 3.x!)
- a good text editor (more important than all the Office stuff)
- I would also add a Midlet-Manager like Esmertec Jbed
I also use TomTom and S2U2 but I would not include them in my ROM.
Last but not least I want a german ROM so I cooked my SKYNET ROM!
I pretty much agree, but I use Office for work stuff, believe it or not.
Oh, and I need a rom in English.
6.5 with new GUI
Try Bluelilly's or X2H's
Hey Guys - I've poured over these threads and am a bit confused about the versions of HTC touchflo. What are my options, if any, that allow running WM6.5 and getting the flip-clock with weather beneath it? Is this possible? Or is this only touchflo 3d, which hasn't been cooked into a wizard rom?
Or maybe I should be able to change the look of the clock for this touchflo but I haven't been able to find it?
Thanks for any info.

I think what you mean is the HTC home plugin, right? I would say that you could use any 6.5 ROM and install the HTC home plugin to get the features you want (by the way, I just found this in a German ROM somewhere here, check out the "SKYNET ROM v6", post #7- Seems it's working there and should of course work for any English version, too). Good luck

I think it's called "HTC Sense" ?
Thanks for replying Andreas. I did some more searching and I think the name associated with the look I want is "sense" ... i don't see a wizard ROM for that yet. But maybe i'm missing something? I've attached a pic.

hm... well, I don't know this one. But guess what- I'd be interested in this too Sorry I couldn't help. Personally, I don't like the 6.5 default look either and I keep always changing to even the 'old' 6.1 home screen, simply because I have all the information I need on one screen. I prefer this over a fancy look. But the thing you are looking for seems to do the job, too. Let's hope someone can jump in and solve the issue
Good luck,
Andreas
Once i ask cracing why dont use this on a rom.
1- this new touchflo is to big
2- our processor is to slow to process the flip clock, you can imagine...there is a lot of deferents images all the time change.
3- there is still bugs on ported version (maybe now this is not more valid)
Just one more thing, the picture is the 3d version, this one is IMPOSSIBLE to get in a non 3d acceleration device, but there something like that in 2d.
I've run this (the 2D version anyway) on a Wizard, by installing cabs onto a fairly naked 6.5 rom. It's slow, and takes too much memory and storage. It sure is pretty, though.
I think I used an "MSD-Series" rom as the base. I can't remember for sure.
I often try 6.5 but my favorite roms are 6.1. Even there, Manila2D is a hog.
RoryB's latest ExtROM-based Angel rom and TechTeamup's NSN rom are pretty evenly matched as my favorites right now. Both come with M2D. NSN loses points for using an older version, but Angel loses points for requiring tweaks to get the album view and music tabs to work properly.

I also need the same. Anybody there can suggest something
Its New HTC Manila from HTC Mega having Flip-Clock and Weather on home screen. It can be found here.
As it has many images ( for making animation like flip clock ), it makes the device slower. So its only good for newer qvga devices having 400+ mhz CPU speed and 128+ MB RAM or users how use there device rearly.
Best Regards
You can see pictures of a Wizard running Manila2D v2 here:

It realy looks great but as Cracing and n2rjt and boto said: It needs to much RAM and CPU power! And is has no real landscape mode wich is a problem if you use it on a phone with a slide-out-keyboard like the Wizard. I did not only installed the CABs but cooked it into my ROM. I flashed it, tested it and 2 days later I already flashed an other ROM again because it is not usefull at all.
