Hi, i have a cooked rom with manilla 2.5, the problem is that i am missing my Call History button.
is there any way, i can get that button there? i noticed that above, "Calendar" word, there is the date. if i click on the date, i get the stupid calendar again!,
i was wondering, if there is a file or a registry key, where i can change, what that button links to.

Its in the theme of Manila.
Search for Max Manila 2.5 theme for your manila build.
Its highly customizable right from the home screen.
sorry for asking, but i really can't understand how max manilla works. i found it too confusing. can't find a detailed guide.
can u plz navigate me on what to do? i would be thankful.

Don't be sorry, I found it a bit confusing too.
What I'm talking about is his cabbed theme found here
I have it working on the ROM in my sig that has Manila 2.5 and even got the 16 shortcuts to work.
There are multiple options on how to customize right from your home tab.
I used the "Max Manila 2.5 Premium - v1.5c (for 2.51919xxx).cab" file.
Check it out....
thanks, i tried it, but this program is more of a mess than a helper.
people should hear about configuration applications.

I did some digging and found out something about the sliding panels.
They are almost identical to Htc Juno Neo interface
They reside in HKLM/software/microsoft/CHome
The part that is responsible for the panels is this
<plugin clsid="{E9267CAB-02EE-4f37-8216-6BF6A8FF5A71}" name="Bronze" height="266">
<Plugins Order="CClock;CHome;CAppointments;CWelcomeCenter;CWindowsLive;Clinks;CMessage;Cmusic;CMyFaves;CMyphotos;CTestUIplugin;Settings" />
</plugin>
From top to down they are arranged in the order in the home.xml
From side to side they are arranged in the registry, at
HKLM/software/microsoft/CHome/<panel name>/Pages
They are arranged in a simillar format
eg(settings)rofile;Wireless;Ringtone;Background;Task.
There are a total of 12 panels but 3 of them doesn't do anything.
They are
CClock
CHome
CAppointments
CWelcomeCenter
CWindowsLive
CLinks - doesn't work
CMessage
CMusic
CMyFaves - doesn't work
CMyphotos
CTestUIplugin - doesn't work
Settings
Thats all i can dig up for now.
does wm6.1 homescreen work on wm6.0 ? maybe by copying some dll to wm6.0 . ?
Not just by copying and regist them... like any other plugin
i tried to build wm6.0 (based on RUU_Vox_HTC_GER_1.34.407.1) include CHome application/plugin and WelcomeCenter
i also added all needed Registry entry`s
the same problems as CHome version from s730 (tryied that 2 months ago)
i will not get it work
...(no time for that)
@Vener
nice finding...
/windows/bronzeres.dll
ther are the Icons for the slinding panel ... if someone wish to make a better looking homescreen, with other Icons
And I think to play on the RegConfig for the CWelcomeCenter, you can make it to a App-laucher bar ^^ ... I will test it tomorrow ... or soon
Some people are asking for the background pic i used so here it is.

Hi
Can you tell us how you reconfigured that "Getting Started" Slide for you own applications.
I think that others are very interested.
Thanks.
Chongie
you don't need to put icons in a dll. a simple .png will do.
for exemple :
"TEXT1"="Internet"
"PICTURES"="\Windows\61.png"
much easier

Hey all,
I am currently using the energy rom with TF3D2..
I'm not to good at alterations to the phone and tweaks etc. but i am wondering.. on the home screen where the clock is.. the softkeys are LEFT: Contacts RIGHT: Comm Mgr.
Now my question is.. am i able to change the Comm Mgr. one (as i never use it) to say an action screen that i've installed? I have tried numerous things and they dont seem to work. On the original Touch Flo i knew how to do it but as i said, i cant figure out how to do it on the new one..
Any help would be much appreciated!

Have you used advanced config?

I have cahnged it using softkey manager that came with the rom but it still doesnt work?

My bad. Thats a ROMeOS exclusive thing .
Sounds like you are using WM6.5.
The CHome homescreen takes over the softkey assignments the same way TouchFlo3D does. In order to change the Left and Right Softkey, you'll have to make the change manually in the registry or from a CHome Titanium Customizer.
The registry setting is easy if you know the link url to the file you want
Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CClock\
Find the Strings "SK2TEXT" and "SK2URL". The SK2TEXT is the name the button will display, and the URL is the link.
If you're wondering, in the main CHome Key (folder) you'll find the SK1TEXT and SK1URL which is the Left SoftKey; although I would leave contacts up there.
he said hes using tf3d2. he didnt say he was using chome.
Thanks for that! I found it in the registry.. the only thing is.. how do i create a URL for the program that i want to run when i click that softkey?

Depends on what you are running on your phone.
Your question is very vague. If you have the shortcut boxes there you just click the empty box and it pulls up a list.
no i dont have shortcut boxes there!! i have wm6.5 with touchflo3d

Like I said, your question was too vague.
I am running WM 6.5 w/TF3D and have 20 shortcuts there.
I suggest you search for maxcy's Manila themes and get familiar with the different options available so you know what you are asking for.
Shortcut on Home screen depend on the build# of your Manila.
Read lots, the possibilities are endless.

Yes you have touchflo3d but in the 2.1 version of manila.
If you want to have shortcuts in the home page you must change to a rom with manila 2.5
how can i see manila's version?
Go to Settings tab\About Phone\Software Info.
You are likely going to want to flash a custom ROM, assuming you're on the stock one still (If you gave as much info up front as possible before asking, there would be no need to assume).
You really need to start reading about flashing a new ROM.
There are no shortcuts so please read thoroughly.
20 shortcuts in manila 2.1
B&L Group Mod Manila 2.1 as 2.5 with 20 shortcuts
Before install cab, you must install MortScript
It's promising but it's in russian. Any chance to see this app in english?
bugs but its awesome no need for upgrading to 2.5
bugs
well yes first its in russian , second in land scape mode its all gibberish .. the screen become out of place the icons are over each other. also when u change the clock the weather animation covers the analog clock a lil from bottom. also the left key name is wrong and when u pull up the shortcuts they mix with small clock overlapping text. ive used td2 tool 2c for landscape mod.
Developers where are u!!!
isnt there anybody who could modify these cabs n perfect them for manila 2.1 topaz wm6.5 ????
It could be the solution for sence 2.1 users... when it runs ok!
Let's see what will happen here.
on wm 6.1 without TF3D how can i put shortcut on today screen?
I guess you better use SPB Mobile Shell, with or without MrSkip widgets.

Nice but needs to be improved
Programm looks nice although I would rather have 9 icons (3x3).
It is in Russian language, to bad at least English isn't standard.
Hope it will be in English and with less icons soon!
For all who wan't to test, it is uninstallable!

Hi guys, i'd realy like to know which path leads to the "alarm" menu (the right slider in the clock menu, which you can access through tipping on the clock on homescreen (manila 2.1, wm 6.5).
I need the filepath, to set it up on the right softkey on manila homescreen.
Can anybody help me?

P.S.: I don't need instructions how to edit the softkeys, i know how to proceed in the registry.

\Windows\Clock.exe will get you to the same screen as when you click on the clock but not sure how to default to Alarm tab.
All right, thanks so far for this hint, but it actually gets me to the "windows" clock settings - due to the nice look of manila / sense / tf3d (whatever), i would prefere to get to the manila style clock settings (alarm settings).
Anybody else an idea?

I don't think it can be done because manila uses a series of Mode9 files for one CPL, so there are multiple files for that function.
Another option would be an external program like G-Alarm.
Okay... that's why nowhere else on the net I found an answer...
Thank you though...
Feature Settings
If it's a *.cpl file it's accessible! See my post and within it several links to more information about accessing Feature Settings via *.LNK files...
In the xda wiki there's a link for the Windows Alarms.

As Sascha stated, "i would prefere to get to the manila style clock settings (alarm settings)." not the windows CPL, which as I stated can be achieved by linking to Clock.exe
You can't link the Manila Alarm UI to a softkey.
Nice tutorial though.

You would need just remove and re add your program shortcuts from the quicklinks.
That should restore the text.
