Confused: Manila, Sense, TouchFlo 2.0, 2.1, 2.5, 2.6 - General Questions and Answers

Could someone please help me to make some order out of HTC's user interfaces? Which one is newest? Which is fastest? What is the naming and numbering convention? Thank you!

Manila = TF3D (touch flo 3D)
within manila,there are two versions; 2.0 and 2.1
then there is the newer manila called sense, that is manila 2.5 and the latest version of sense is 2.6
hope its a little more clearer now for you

Thank you!

Thank you!
The terms are so puzzling.
My HD2 has Sense, but how do I tell whether it is manila 2.5 or 2.6? About Phone says Manila version is 1.0.19211620.0, so what does it mean?

That is incorrect.
Manila = all versions of TFLO3D and Sense.
There is TouchFlo3D2.0 and 2.1.
There are newer builds of TouchFlo2.1 called HTC Sense.
There is also manila 2.5, which is also called HTC Sense.
Manila 2.6 is the exact same as Manila 2.5 but it is for a different type of processor and it will not run on any of HTC's current devices that use Quallcomm processors.
Hope this clears things up. The HTC Leo comes with Sense 2.5.

Thanks. It is even more complicated that I supposed. But it is good enough now that I know what mine is.

Here we go lol, Manila is the working name for HTC's 3D user interface, this comes in 2 types, TouchFlo 3D and Sence, TouchFlo 3D is the oldest version of manilla it Starts at v1.0 and goes up to v2.1, Sence is the newer version of Manila It starts at v2.1 and goes up to v2.6.
so in short imagine sence as an upgrade to the touchFlo 3D, where TouchFlo Finishes at 2.1 then it goes to sence 2.1, 2.5, 2.6 ect

You are correct sence 2.6 uses PVR for the gfx and quallcomm chipsets dont support this, this manila was developed for the HTC Qilin wich uses OMAP3

Can i get a little more info on sence 2.6? I've got diamond 2 phone, and i saw video of 2.6 running on d2.

TouchFlo3D update?

Hello.
Can i update my TouchFlo 3D interace?
i have version 2.0.37889.1 and i want 2.1 to have background in all tabs...
there is a fix for that for version 2.1
thank you!
Do a search on the forum. There is fix to enable background in all tabs without changing entire TF3D.
only for touchflo 2.1
not for 2.0...
i checked and tried.
thank you
I'm fairly sure you would have to update the rom on your mobile to update TF3D
i thought so...
i don''t to do that yet because i have official hebrew support that's only works with WM 6.1 and touchflo 2.0 / 2.1.
isn't there an official WM 6.1 HTC ROM with ToucFlo 3D 2.1 version?
thanks again.
No. But you can flash the ESSentiaL rom. Its WM 6.1 and TD3D 2.1

tought it was the newest..
thank you!
works like a charm!!!!
problem...
all tabs meaning also the contacts details and the "all programs" in the start button and some more.
the fonts there are black so i can't use any background that matches all...
is there a way to make the background only in the TouchFlo 3D main tabs?
thanks again!

Best Raphael UI

Hello dear Raph-users
Poll for today : what is the best UI.
I need a solid UI which can provide me links to every thing in my raph.
Manilla 2.5 suits me best, but its not completly ported to VGA and stupid HTC mesaging system
Discuss
At the moment Manila 2.1, I think, is the best. It works perfectly, its fluid, and its fast. You won't find anything that doesn't work in Manila 2.1. I think if Manila 2.5 gets fully ported to VGA, it will beat out 2.1 no contest. But for now 2.1.
SPB Mobile shell or Ultimatelaunch. Manila is uncustomizable eye candy and a memory killer
Why spb is so good? My friend got HD with spb with android mod and its not so fast as manilla 2.5 either
I've used RLToday, UL, Titanium and now Manila 2.1. I think Manila is better, but I agree that it should be easier to customize.
Manilla 2.5
Since the nearly full port og sense (manila 2.5) to VGA that has to be best and fastest UI in my mind that is

Leo Manila version - can it be updated?

Hello,
I went away from HTC land and recently returned again with a HTC Leo.
Now I've missed all the Manila releases and etc.
So I have a few Manila questions.
1. Can the current Manila version be updated without flashing your ROM?
2. If so can I use Manila's from different devices (eg Blackstone threads)
3. Can you use tools for a different Manila version on yours? (eg new theme for Manila 2.5.1922 on my Manila on the HTC LEO (v 2.5.1911)
Spend some time searching for the awnsers but never found a straitgh one.
Thanks for all the reply's

Manilla and Sense = same thing?

Stupid question maybe but is Manilla and sense the same thing?
I know htc first created touch flo for their touch devices
And then later the new one Touch flo 3d was introduced with the touch diamond
But after that im getting a bit confused.
I know the newer color versions of touchflo 3d is called sense
but alot of people also seems to refer to them as manilla.
are they just different names for the same thing?
Yes, TouchFlo 3D (Manila) got renamed to Sense. Maybe to make distance to TouchWiz etc???
It gets confusing when people use different names for same thing. Sense 2.5 and manilla 2.1 etc
Anyway thanks

CHT maxsense or sens?

Hi
What means with
CHT?
maxsense
and
sens
in ROMS?
Don't know witch to download :S
HTC Sense on Windows Mobile world is an evolution of HTC TouchFLO 3D. Originally made for newer HTC devices, like HD2 or HD Mini. It also available as an official ROM update for older WVGA HTC devices (except Touch HD), like Touch Diamond2 or Touch Pro2. However, it's not available for VGA HTC Devices like our HTC Raphael (Touch Pro or Fuze). But, thanks to our friend here (at XDA-Developers), we can get the HTC Sense on our HTC Raphael. Unlike Sense 2.1 or older TouchFLO 3D which you can install by CAB, HTC Sense 2.5 is cook-only, because it's very large (in file size), so, if you have a ROM without HTC Sense 2.5, the only way to get it is use another ROM that has HTC Sense 2.5.
CHT : Co0kie Home Tab. Modifies the HTC Sense 2.5. Shortly, you have customizeable Home Tab. For the details, open the CHT XDA thread on the link above. If you don't have CHT cooked in your ROM, but the ROM has HTC Sense 2.5, you can install the CAB, so, don't worry.
MaxSense : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687153. It tooks customization of HTC Sense even further. Shortly, you will have Android-like homescreen, widgets. For the details, open the MaxSense XDA tread on the link above. If you don't have MaxSense cooked in your ROM, you CANNOT install CAB, you have to get another ROM that has MaxSense.
Moved as not ROM Development.
