Should I upgrade manila on touch Pro? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hello all, I have a newly acquired Sprint Touch Pro and have been seeing a full manila upgrade floating around, should I upgrade to this or is it not necessary unless using custom themes? Also will it replace/override most of the current manila files? 18Mb seems pretty big for a cab file. Sorry for my ignorance and thanks in advance.

i just upgraded to the new manila after needing a hard reset for something unrelated and i love the new manila it is a lot better. at first it was slow but after some soft resets or changes in advconfig or installing swype (not sure which) it is now just as fast as before. i would recommend it but you may need to hard reset which is what held me up before.

The new manilla's integrate themselves into the os alot more than the older ones, i would not advise installing 2.1 by cab, you are just asking for trouble and errors ect and it cant be uninstalled so once you installed it your stuck with it, either flash a new rom with the manila u want included or keep the original one, im using my own cooked rom with the original manilla, i dont need 2.1 or 2.5, neither of them were made for our device or work perfectly with it, so u mite as well use the manilla that was made for the device your using not a touch pro 2 or HD 2

Can in any way without harming my rom & slowering the system speed .. can I add tabs in the touch flo ( like calender , stock, etc )
thanks a lot in advance

I am running touchflo 2.1 (manila 2.1) installed from a cab and have no real problems at all. The only issue I have is with the Tachi dialer and that is only necessary if you wish to make calls from the people tab. If you install the 2.1 touchflo and don't like it you can use total commander and delete all the manila files and soft reset your phone. The manila files are the touchflo files and will be restored from the rom. Hope this helps

Thanxx A LOT.

it's in my sig too
how can i make these into CAB files?
Excuse what may be a daft question but:
Can these be copied over to the device and placed in a folder other that the Windows folder?
The reason I ask is that when trying all the various Touch components it slows accessing my Windows folder down dramatically. (Also slows the device down generally)
There are no ROMS that include these different components for the Charmer.
cheers
im so sorry for bothering but can someone make these files into a cab PLEASE!!

how you doin with your hermes !!
good files, tnx
Matt,
I have successfully installed the new Home plugin using the theloon 4.1 beta, however I can't get the new comm manager to install at all. Any ideas on what I need to do? I don't have touchflo enabled, in case that matters.
I took a quick look at the rgu file - it is very different from the one in the 8B touchflo version. It's also about 140k larger. It doesn't look like it's the correct file.
I don’t know why but I can’t enable the Favorites People tab. There is a registry entry or something else to make this work?
Thanks

I guess yes WM6.5 is more thumb frndly and eye catching ... secondly there is no WM6.5 Pro v4.1, in my ROMs versions are of ROMs not WM6.5 so WM6.5 is recognized by builds and is still BETA

Chome issue, need urgent help

i am using a cooked rom on my Kaiser, which dont have Chome integrated. the developer uses PointUI. i am not a fan of Pointui and want to switch back to the original Chome panel. is there anyway to do that except re-fresh another rom? i.e. is there a cab file to re-install the original Chome? i am really fancinated by all kinds of chome themes and wanna try out.
thanks

Is it wm6.1 or 6.5 ROM? If 6.5 then yes, but no guarantee that it will work. You are better off flashing to a WM6.5 ROM.
You probably already know this, but figured I might as well ask.
Did you check the setting for the today screen?
Star Menu - Settings - Today - Items Tab - Check off Windows Default or Titanium to enable CHome, uncheck the PointUI, and hit OK.
I doubt they fully removed CHome as it's also the files that control the new start menu and Unlock/Etc screens.
OMG theres nothing at all urgent about this thread, MODS PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD AS IT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN CREATED! THE THREAD STARTER SHOULD HAVE ASKED THIS QUESTION IN THE THREAD OF THE ROM HE/SHE IS USING.
Quoting: msd2400 "without a quote blame Opera and the mini server update, still not solved"
Yep deffinetly not a urgent issue and should have been posted in the ROM thread....

You can't cab in a manila tab, it requires an entire flash
hi there,
a little late for responding i guess, but better late then never.
but it's duable,.. i was just searching for a standalone htc reader cab nd found ur thread, anyway... I saw it from UfOun on xda developers Site
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6004805&highlight=manial_full.xml#post6004805
U need the prog first, has to be installed (guess u have that allready).
Change Ur original 26948339_manila file. edit the file by using the zip file that UfOun provides. look for ordernr.5, copy that whole reader stuff and add it in ur original file. don't forget to change order nr. ( like for instance put it on last place)) and do like he sais... delete file manila_full.xml. restart ur done
note u need the prog allready installed before doing these steps.

for flash look on my thread under steps...there is all you need
->if you want not my rom but another flash another...it´s always your choice what you flash

edit:
flash:
0. flash hard spl
1. first original rom and hard reset (hold the two left and right buttons on the bottom + stylus reset) if you see the calibration screen
2. rom of your choice.. also with hard reset
3. radio (soft reset comes automatic)....not a must have....but if you have little freeze

my is a new style wm 6.5.X rom with startmenu on bottom...i really like this...because it´s more fingerfriendly...
and yes flash the original rom +hard reset if you see the calibration screen and flash eg. my rom....
look at my thread under steps post 2....the rom you flash is your choice but the way is always the same
