As far as I know there aren't a lot lot raph's owner editing their manila to add a calendar, call history or comm manager tab. I bumped into all kinds of wall's when I tried to add an calendar tab. After a lot of searching and trying I can't get manila editor 2.0 to recognize the 26948339_manila file, It just doesn't see it for some reason. Anybody else tried and succeeded? Or to add other tabs? This could be the thread where different kinds of manila mods on raphael could be discussed. I'll posted it here when I have found a solution, cheers
These are some of the tabs, already in the diamond forum, Calendar, comm manager and Call history
Hi!
I currently have the calendar and commanager tabs working on my touch pro.
I took me some working to get them there, but i did it.
Try installing the theme posted on the link below, it has both tabs and is basically the original theme with the greens changed into blue (my creation).
You can apply the theme with Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool v 3.2.
Here you go: http://www.mediafire.com/?oxbz2eayvgu
Cheers and good luck.
Real nice thank you! Did you do this with manila editor? You mean to say open with TF3D config right? Either way can't seem to open it (i did use AC 3.2 and). Must be doing something wrong...
First, you got it right, I meant the Diamond TF3D Config instead of configurator, sorry for the mistake.
What version of the TF3D config are you using? I'm using 0.6.7 and i've just installed this very same theme after having changed to another one previously....
Where/how are you trying to install the theme? Are you going in the "appearence", selecting the directory where you placed the .theme file clicking on "path", selecting the theme it self on the drop down list, then clicking on "apply" and hitting "start"...
Maybe you missed some of these steps?
Anyways, take a further look and search into the diamond themes threads, you may find your way...
Cheers.
I would love a "tasks" tab...

Hey man thanks for replying did all that but it doesn't show, also have the latest version(apptodate), maybe it has thye wrong format. I'm on romeos. Here are some screenshot's. But could you also tell me how you edited these because I cannot get manila editor the read 26948339_manila. Anyway thans a lot , cheers
I'm out of ways to try to edit 26948339_manila (to add a calendar tab to manila), there is just no way this file is seen by manila editor 0.2. I'm using this on vista, maybe someone else has some info...
I have managed to install comm manager via this cab
Use a notepad like application (windows XP Notepad worked for me), not the manilla editor. Don't forget to change the file attributes to "writeable" (not read-only) prior to editing it.
Good luck.

Now my default theme. Thankyou. I was bored with the Vodafone one.
The call history page locks up each time I switch to it. Everything else works perfectly. What am I missing?
I succeeded in getting either a calendar tab or comm manager tab. Will attach the manila files, which are those created by D-MAN666 + 26948339_manila I edited (thanks cassiano)
Ok I succeeded in installing both of the tabs, with the above cab and these manila files (copy them to your windows folder with total commander). Something new has come up though, my home screen calander link became unresponsive (it doesn't link any more)

I had the same issue...and think it was because I loaded the Calendar tab first. Blob8Me has 14 tabs total with no issues, but went in a sequence that allowed it. I don't want to remove my calendar tab to install the call history tab first. Holding my ground with just 12 tabs.

Thought I'd add a coiple more Images as its been a few days since anyone posted here..... and I really do think this is a worthwhile thread
I'm still using the Diamond Forum for most developments as much of the work done there works for the Raphael seemlessly - not all, but most. The next major development I'm waiting for is the ability to apply the Home wall-paper to all Tabs in TF3D but this doesnt quite work yet although I made some small progress with mun_rus's work for the Sprint Diamond - see post #78 in link bellow!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432951&page=8
So - changes I've made since my last post here - I've added a sound settings tab - that gives me 14 active and useful tabs now I've added the analog clock to my home Tab - loosing the call history & appointment but I have the call history tab and still get my reminders for appointments. I've also added the VGA battery icon and tweaked the Titles on a couple of pages.
Current Tabs are:
Home - Of Course!
Speed Dial (People Tab)
Messages
Mail (Blackberry Connect & Emoze Free Push email client - www.emoze.com - both in use - very happy)
Jeff's Day (D-Man666's Calendar Tab)
Call History
Weather
Ohoto's & Videos
Music
Internet
Comm Manager (IDS_Communications Tab)
Settings
Programs
Sound Settings (Sound Tab)
A few (but not all) screenshots attached for info -those with the wallpaper as a background (weather, calendar) are as a result of woring on the background changer from mun_rus - please search this and the Diamond forum before asking for cabs, code etc.....
So - Lets see some more activity on the forum from Raphael users...... we do, after all have the best phone available in the world at the moment?

Yes, because the Call History and Calendar had the same number. Moved the Call History to page 11. Still locked when I went into the tab. Just uninstalled. I will install the Call History first after I install the Elite Rom (once released). Not sweating about it right now.
I was looking to reactivate the non responsive calendar link on the home screen but I suddenly got another tab added (the unresponsive link seems to be caused by mun_rus' Backgound Image on All Pages)
Right am just about to start to attempt some editting of manila files, what's the best programme to do this

To be honest (having done a lot of this) I find that the standard notebook app that comes with windows is fine for basic edits????
.
I installed the Calendar tab on my Touch Pro - everything is working except the month and days are displayed as IDS_CALENDAR_xxxxxxx (xxxx being the name of month/day).
Where is this filed substituted?
Nevermind, I got it - the zip did not include one important file. I got it from elswhere, now it works.

This Kitchen has built in AT&T customize on first install and on HR, if you don't need it just remove the OEMOPERATORS FOLDER from the OEM Folder.
This build contains SYS and ROM in "Part #1" and OEM packages in "Part #2"
This Kitchen is so complete I had to break into 2 parts. Download and extract both parts and put all files and folders into one directory to use.
I am not responsible if you don't know what you are doing and brick your phone, but in the spirit of XDA-Developers I am sure someone here willing to help!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Latest SYS and ROM (part1) Ver8.1.0
Latest OEM Packages (part2) Ver8.1.0
Version Information:
ALL "call home" issues have been castrated! No more Customer feedback.
SDHS Memory should be full supported now! Seems to have always been present in the Official MS Wizard ROM.
All Phone issues resolved! Use the proper radio for your carrier and phone.
Wifi Issues resolved! Automatically connect to preferred networks.
Connect to Internet Via Active Sync.
For Clarification:
1) This is the original InGeNeTiCs' ROM all I did in this Version is strip out the "call home" stuff, added a few dlls that were missing but were needed for some of the HTC/touch apps (these files can be found in sys/missing files).
2) There are two OEMOPERATORS folders, one in OEM and one in SYS the one in OEM is one I put there as a example of how you can add your own cab files for settings, splash screen or whatever it is you need simply edit the config.txt file and put whatever files in the files you need. *I am not going to to into great detail how to do this all it takes is a little common since. You can delete mine if you like.
3) There are no hidden, super secret, xda-elite only, make my Wizard fly, bull**** tweaks included. just a clean, won't leave a bad taste in your mouth unless you burn it, Kitchen.
4) My only reason for creating this kitchen is to prove that the "InGeNeTiCs'- Official Microsoft-Made Specifically for the Wizard-Drivers and all ROM" is as solid and stable as any other ROM or kitchen out there if done right. Other than all I did is create and add a lot of OEM packages so you could have choices in life.
The base is like Coca-Cola "Original".
Everything works as it should the only limitations are M$ related!
This has been a fun ride but the ride seems to have come to an end.
This release is so stable that I can not bear to call it a beta anymore.
A HUGE THANK YOU to all that have contributed to this project. In the end I'm sure we all wanted WM6 but we wanted a stable version that didn't crash, lock up, and just plain ol' worked!
Credits to the ones that made the tools to make this possible: faria, anichillus, bepe and mattk_r for asking me to take the plunge.

hi
can i bea beta tester can you send me the liknk to download
First Thoughts.....
This ROM looks to be more stable than the last one, and also I see that the reboot slowdown issue is non-existent.(It would slow down horribly on the 3rd-or-so reboot/SR) Overall, faster.
HTC AudioManager + Recorder are NOT working, but maybe that's just a package issue (I used one of my packages I had lying around). Pretty much that's it.
Wi-Fi is OK, nothing major. No phone issues as of yet.
I did not test the Home Plugin because I used my 6-tab plug. That works quite well.App Launching is a little bit faster, or maybe that would just be me
Word completion works,KB is fine (tested in Notes)
I would give it a 9.5/10 (only because of no Touch camera ,otherwise, it rocks!)
Thanks for your input!

Audio manager package that is in OEM that was included in this build is reworked for this kitchen and works fine. Recorder is in process still.
Do you know of a working 4. camera package or one in a pre-built Wizard ROM?
Do you have a Home Plugin OEM to incorporated?

This works with the included *cities.xml file. The PNGs are compressed to increase speed. Works fine. It's in color.
Got AM working (my mistake, used a wrong package) but VoiceRec is still offline. Not that I use it all that much.
I think I have a bug : you need to have WMP installed to get AM working.
EDIT: New package with "Pro" icons added.

Remove clock and put battery indicator on top instead (if you press & hold it will bring up power/battery tab).
Add day and date to touch home plug-in you can change it to display as you like:
dddd will give you day of week as a word as in "Thursday", dd will give you date style (numeric day of the month) as in "30" without quotes of course.
The same is true for month mmmm and year yyyy so experiment!

HTC WMP today plug in
I added a bunch of packages to the kitchen and have de-bugged most of them, this one I can't find. During the OS Build the process errors out at "OEM\HTC WMP Today Plug-in" with a dialog that says "The file 'temp\dump\WmpPluginToday.dll' already exists. Know I know this is telling me that a previous package has used this dll flile, what I can't find is which one it is!
Any input greatly appriciated.

But, if you really want it ,try mattk's package.

Ok, I already took both the 1.5 ver out of OEM. Now its complaining about sys/touchflo.dll.

1st flash test report
Ok,
So I got the build to run with Merlin's help (thank you Sir). Flashed back to T-Mobile 2.26, up to IPL/SPL 3.08 and GSM 2.69.11 then the kitchen build.
First the good news:
1. For the first time in a dozen or so ROMs I have flashed Voice Command workes flawlessly! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!
2. Basic functions work good, no glaring errors.
3. As theloon noted, the backlight controls will not lock the wizard.
The bad news:
1. If I attempt to launch any CAB file (including the 2.69 radio fix) I get a message saying "CAB failed to load"
2. see #3 above, it doesnt lock the wizard, it however will not open backlight control either. recommend taking this out of the launcher and just leave it in the settings page.
3. HTC Audio manager, if I attempt to open any audio file I immediatly get a message saying "critically low on system memory..." WMP still works fine.
4. The dastardly weather application doenst like the XML file i built for it. I wish there was a way to test that without building. (see questions below)
5. I used merlin's 6 button HTC home plug in, looks very nice BTW, couldnt do much testing on it since my contacts DB is at work. My only negative on this one, the musical note icon (far right) is very hard to see. I dont know who did the icon art but perhaps we could find a better icon?
6. I tried loading the AT&T extended ROM as part of this build, bad idea. The flash gets to 5% and crashes... took it out, flashes fine.
Questions:
1. Is there a way to test the weather XML file without building it into the ROM? IE: If i build the the ROM with the weather XML file included in the build I can only edit it. I cant delete, replace etc. So I was thinking that if I took it out of the build and put the file in after, maybe I could speed up testing.
2. Several of the packages dont seem to have any output, IE: the WMP home plug in, I dont see anything on the home screen that relates to WMP?
So there it is, I have to re-flash to a fully working ROM before I go to work tomorrow. I will be on line all day (from my office) so post away..
thanks Loon for letting me test this, great fun!

LOL? I think not dear Senior Member... I have tried every possible way to delete that file, stop the plug included. The file properties say "included in ROM" and will not allow changes to file prop. Thats why I asked about building without it, so the file properties would allow changes.

What I can deduce from your observations all/most of your "hanging" problems seem to stem from the final size when you build your ROM.
I have experienced this myself, the max size for a wizard rom is around 56 MB for the ROM, but that does not include Boot loaders, Radio and Extended ROM.
In my case my phone is locked so the "customize" just uses storage/program space and does some reg tweaks.
If you want more space in your build you can use the compression tools located elsewhere in this forum.
As for the Home Plug weather XML make sure it's attributes are not set to "read only" and you should be able to exchange them at will and SR to test there usability.
My HTC Audio Manager works flawlessly not sure what you did! be careful using other OEM packages, the ones I included in this beta were designed and tested to work with this beta.
FYI HTC Audio Manager was built using Windows Media SDK so it uses components of WMP (dlls and such), I will probably move those components to different directories.
Backlight is a matter of a redirect/link.
Feel free to fix any/all issues and post for everyone to test!!!

Can you confirm that the HTC Today plugin is working with your Wizard? By that I mean does it have a tab in your Today section? I found two plugins, one installed and had the tab in the Today section. It did not show up on the main screen even after soft resets and a cold boot. I ran two included cabs that supposedly might fix the prob. Next I found another install noted by an customizer app for this plugin... the plugin and app work, but no Today item so I can change the amount of tabs, etc. This is a cool item, but full I haven't found a full functioning version yet for my wizard

I have a few questions about Manila 2d that I have downloaded on my Samsung Omnia (VZ i910).
-How can you add contacts to your people menu?
-How can you add programs to the program menu?
*I have clicked on both, held each spot, but nothing happens.
-How can I set up my location for the weather tab?
*I have tried to click add location, but nothing works
-I have tried to download a new theme, however each and every time I do so (following directions) the interface only takes up 2/3 of the screen leaving a small area at the bottom under the different tabs of extra space. I had a feeling that perhaps the files I was downloading weren't QVGA, but I downloaded another and it still didn't work.
Also, is there a reliable Manila 2d that supports landscape? I heard some member here was working on it.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
hmmmmm
i too have the omina i910...iim about to install Manila on my phone...but too sure anymore...lol
how is it......

The landscape part, I would check the main M2D thread. I believe that Helmi was close to getting it done. Which version of M2D are you using? I ask because the version might actually be the reason why you can't get it to work properly. I have seen that problem a few times in the early versions of M2D, where people had all sorts of issues adding things to the launchers. Let us know so that we can help you out.
I just spent the last 3 hours getting all the nessary information to install Manila 2D on my Omnia. I got it working. now the only thing is the the flow menu that you use to navigate between all the features (Home, Contacts, Messages, Internet etc...) is 3/4 way down the screen its not at the bottom where it should be. so when i go to Contacts the flow menu is 3/4 way down but all my contacts go down to the bottom. is there anyway to fix this
Thanks
Based fully on ammars 12 button action screen for HD. When I installed the ammars version, I found out, that bluetooth toggle was not working and also no button was assigned after install. So I changed the "ToggleBTh.exe" inside the cab for a different version working with LEO and I also assigned the left soft key as the action button. Finally I changed the text in the picture of psshutXP to reflect the device it's used on.
As you can see, I haven't done anything big, just slight modifications, so all the credit still goes to ammar for his HD version and to metkosas as the first creator. Anyway I like this piece of soft and I thought I'd share enjoy
Original ammars post can be found HERE.
If you want to alter the function of any button, check out THIS post which contains a very good how-to.
[Update 22/11/2009]
- v 1.2
- changed cab registry modifications - now working for non-english OS
[Update 21/11/2009]
- v 1.1
- implemented suggestion from post 6 - HTC Contact Editor instead of the old MS one
[Update 20/11/2009]
- replaced "ToggleBTh.exe" used by ammar with a version compatible with LEO
- slight change in graphics od psshutXP (text mostly)
- action assigned to the left soft key
- removed the "today icon" option, as it has no use in manilla
I have uploaded two versions. The first one links the button "gps" to googlemaps. The second one is for those of you, that use iGO8.
Warning: iGO8.exe has to be installed in "\program files\iGO8\iGO8.exe"
Install HD2 12 Button Action Screen to the device not SD!
Very nice, good work!
One question: I've been looking for a simple bluetooth toggle app that works on the Leo, seems you found one, could you post that seperately?
Here you go

Dude, awesome, thanx!
I think smaberg is also working on his 12 button action screen for HD2 ^^
But nice to see this also.
Thanks!
So much more useful than a stupid phone soft key that duplicates the function of the hardware button 1cm below it.
Dupe post
If you are a passing mod, please delete this...
Detxtrosan. Thanks for updating it to work for Leo.
Can I offeer a suggestion to all users and also you to update the cab file so that the New Contact link on the Action Screen takes you to the better looking HTC Contact Editor as opposed to the Microsoft old Contact Editor. Here is the reg tweak...
HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_6
Change path to: \windows\ContactEditor.exe
Also delete text in Param field.
Thanks!
Good idea, I'll do that, thanks for the suggestion.
GPS and Shutdown is not working for me, just takes me back to homescreen.
What version did you download? As for the GPS problem, the answer could be that you downloaded an iGo8 version and you don't have iGo8 installed/installed in the right directory. As for shutdown, I'll have to look into it according to the version you downloaded.
Very good!
Would it be possible for you to include a Tomtom version?
For those, who have installed IGO in their Storage Card (or somewhere else than Program Files\IGO) ...
Go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_10
Change Path to the path of your IGO8.exe
SOFT RESET
And now you`re ready to go !
P.S. Thanks for the wonderful application !!!!
I downloaded "HD2_12_button_HD_action_screen_v1.1.cab" so no iGo8 version. When i press GPS or Shutdown i get the loading circles and then back to homescreen, no error or anything.
Do you have a branded version of HD2? Could you check if you have the directory psShutXP after the cab install? The action screen points to the file: \Program Files\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Also can you check if you have the googlemaps installed in the \program files\GoogleMaps directory? The action screen points to the file:\program files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe

Here the same. I think it has something to do with language. My dir for shutdown isn't Program Files\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe but Programmabestanden\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Changed: HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_11
Change path in to my language: Programmabestanden\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Same for GPS/Googlemaps App_10
OK. Thanks for your info mlkenschede. I found out, that the cab registry modifications were hard coded. I changed them to reflect system folders but unfortunately I have an english device so I need you guys to check this out for me. If it works for you I'll update the first post with this version.
MMSLauncher?
MMS tab just open up SMS?! hmm...
I checked it on the dutch version and indeed, shotdown is working correctly.

The thing is that there is no difference in the SMS/MMS dialogue in manilla 2.5. MMS is sent when you add an attachment. Maybe we could come up with a different action assigned to the MMS button instead on the LEO.

THX for the confirmation. Did the GPS button work too?
Lot of people looking for how to add a new tab for HD2, but none can find what he's looking for.
A simple example: Adding all programs tab
Let those who know about manila tweaks to help us to have the know-how to achieve this goal.
Thank you
Well there is a program tab being developed in the General WM software development section but it's currently VGA and needs to be edited for WVGA.
Another option is to use MTP (manila today page) in the diamond section this works .004 with sense with a couple of fixes and you can have any today plugin on the today page. see diamond section for full details or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616415
MTP
Well, I tried the MTP but it didnt add extra tab. but I can use existing tab (in this case STOCK tab) to be use for another link. Now I use it for Radarweather.

You mean that we can't add a new tab but we just can replace existing ones?
But how come they manage to have it on the vga one with even other tab for manilla TV (see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5383259) But none talk about adding a porgram tab for wvga for HD2, weired isn't it?
Is there any tutorial of how to manipulate the manila xml or even explanation how manila works, so we can try to figure out a solution

You didn't read the instructions carefully. You have to delete the manila xml and delete key in the registry. This is essential to have 1 extra tab:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616415&highlight=manila+today+page
1. Install MTP
2. Turn off Sense (otherwise you won't be able to perform step 3).
2. install MTP Apple Icon.zip (if you want to have the apple icon instead of the silver windows one...i made a *.cab here)
3. Under \windows delete the file ManilaFull.xml.
4. With a registry editor, delete the key \HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration.
5. Activate Sense and reorder your tabs (by deleting xml and reg key you'll revert to default order).
I use the manila today page myself for displaying pocket weather in htc style.

Yup, been there, done that, but didnt work for me. In fact I tried it two times. Could be some other mod that I do that make it not working. maybe I will try it again. One question, are you using cooked rom or stock rom?

MTP
O.K. have try the new mtp. It install fine without the need to do any window or registry edit. The only drawback (to me) is the ifruit tab icon. It spoil the whole silver feeling. Just a small sacrifice though. Just follow the link given by mkucuksari and download the correct version. Install and softreset. It'll be there.

This cab give a coloured today icon and works for sense, if you don't like the apple icon. It also give a people link on the right instead of MTP settings but the link is non functioning, also the MTP setting link was not functioning on my rom stock 1.66, you can gain access to MTP setting from start menu.

Hi,
One question: After installing this cab, do you also face with a annoying "MTP Load" message at start-up process.

This is great idea to add MSN Messenger in one of these tab ..
eg. like twitter
