Hi guys,
I HAVE SEARCHED AND FOUND A SECTION INTHE TOPAZ> JUST WONDERING IF INEED TO ADD ONE TO MY HOME PAGE< COULD SOMEONE GUIDE ME PLEASE?
THANKS
Max Manila Ultimate v2.6 Beta
I'm using Max Manila Ultimate v2.6 Beta from the Blackstone Apps Section - the thread can be found >>HERE<<
I've attached a screen-shot too for info. Max's add on also lets you use the same wallpaper on all tabs, lets you decide on weather to show short-cuts, calendar and a few other neat tweaks and it works perfectly on my HD2 - I'm surprised its not mentioned more here in the Leo forums?

ur a gentelman!
jamrecords over at 4pda.ru forums makes a lot of Manila mods, including these.
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=103650 (Russian language only).
Please note that an addon cannot be installed without the "main" cab, which is Jamrecords "16 Shcut & Calls - Manila 1619".
PS: 1619 is the version of Manila in 1.48 ROMs.
PPS: Backup first!!!

Is it possible for you to post a screenshot. It would be very helpful to know how does it look like. Please be so kind.

I think you may have missed something???
If you'd taken a look at the main thread on the Blackstone forum as per the link in my previous post you'd have seen that there is an option to have either 12, 16 or 20 shortcuts?
I'm presuming that you meant that you had to re-setup your shortcuts after installing Max Manilla????
For clarity I've attached a screen shot of the settings button that gives you the option to choose how many shortcuts you'd like circled in red? If I've misunderstood you then please clarify.

Also - here's an explanation of what each option (button) shoen in the screen shot does courtesy of maxycy from the single post >>HERE<<
I've highlighted the part that covers "call history" so as to stay on topic too!
a. Titanium - change to Titanium UI ( to get back to TF3D, you can MaxTTM and do a TRefresh or the usual manual way of activating your Today items )
b. Goldfish - activates my goldfish program ( cab needs to be downloaded on post#4 to work )
c. Lite - this is where you change to your Lite mode
d. Analog - activates single large analog screen ( everything now removed on main screen )
e. Resolution - WVGA or VGA ( VGA not ready yet, I will need feedback and testers fm VGA users before I can get this done )
f. Mute - OFF / Silent / Vibrate ( phone volume profile settings when you phone is face down )
g. AutoLock - toggle on/off when phone is faced upside down
h. Alert - this is the layout settings for your notification and shortcuts. There is altogether 4 types.
- OFF : nothing will show on screen
- NS : both notification and shortcuts on screen
- S : only shortcuts is showing
- N : only notification is showing
i. Tab Icons - toggle on/off the retractable tab icons ( only works for normal screen )
j. Slider - toggle on/off the transparent slider effect ( pls note that NRGZ ROM for HD had permanently ON this )
k. Rotate - this has not finished yet. I've not decided what to put here but it's basically a quick way to access something by rotating your phone to 270deg when it's activated
l. Fullscreen - this is where you toggle your fullscreen mode. Pls note that this setting will also be remembered and will automatically turn your mode to fullscreen when you boot in.
m. Wallpaper - I have not changed much here from v2.5 except that panoramic has now been removed and replaced by fullscreen wallpaper. So you will still have BG4all, Fullscreen and Default. For fullscreen wallpaper, I'm using the same filename MaxBackground.jpg and have a resolution of 480x800 instead.
n. Weather - toggle on/off your weather animation
o. Calendar - this is where you set your number of appointments and call history
- 0 : no appointments will be shown
- 1 : will show Calendar icon (one appointment)
- 1C : will show Calendar icon and Call History
- 2 : will show 2 appointments ( only appears if you have active appointments )
- 3 : will show 3 appointments
p. Shortcuts : added the 12 shortcuts. You can cycle through 12/16/20.

Can you please post your ROM to XDA's ftp server. Rapid share kills me with waiting time of 132 minutes. Can't really wait that much to try your ROM. hehe... If you can do so, it will help me and probably others too.

6.1 use the same system of chome but no possibility actually to port neo chome into wm6.1 chome
after there is no possibility to make neo plugin CAB. We don't know why but it work only in a cooked rom.
I think Microsoft hide something.

stay tuned

Hi all - after installing Pisca's, ljankok's, NhatHoa's and Energy's ROMs with the Sense 2.5.20113030.0, and I wanna share with everyone the customizations which work with this new Topaz version of Sense. All of these items can be searched for here on XDA - search is your friend! I put the exact cab name, and the link to the thread where the cab will be located.
Background for all tabs: grzegorz10 B4all Tabs Leo 2.02.cab - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544422
Transparent Slider: mcrayTranspSliderS.cab (this removes the everything but the icons and the window behind focused tab)
Transparent Clock Panel: mcray_trans_clock.cab (removes the panel behind the clock, date, and alarm state)
both found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585371
Currently my favorite clock: joy exeClock1.cab (lots of clocks available!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=610574
Blue Clouds: HTCeros Sense LightBlue Clouds.cab (3 colors to choose from)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=599147
Sense Rotation works great!! I use Gaz TD2 Tools (Release 2d) for WM 6.5 -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=536410 -
(this utility is a great tool - there are numerous adjustments at your fingertips/ stylus-tip!) I might add that in all ROMS - all of the items worked wonderfully - I am partial to 6.5 over 6.5.3, as the former is noticeably smoother than the latter (in my own experience - your mileage may vary).
Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1 works, at least for what I use it for, which is to set the top and bottom curtains to change with the background - maybe someone can suggest a better way? I have tried other methods in the past - this has been the most consistent ROM to ROM. Don't forget to install sdkcert.cab, as well - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1411617&postcount=7 - here is Max Theme Maker link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493011 - this thread contains a ridiculous amount of possible customizations to Sense - please, look through this thread!
If there is one thing I have found to be true, it is that it's nearly impossible for two phones to react exactly the same, as every piece of software installed after initial flash contributes to the functionality. It seems that if I install all of my interface components first, things run smoother - the same as the desktop world - base system and drivers first, then tools, the fun and games - following this advice has steered me clear of many problems!
Might as well add a link to this thread, which I literally just came across - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792 - dual boot winmobile and android....hmmm.....
Useful links for Manila 2011.
Thanks!
Your welcome band27 - I often see questions and references to these apps in the individual ROM threads, but there is no central repository, of course. Hope this helps folks here in the Topaz section - I see nearly a hundred views already, so apparently there is interest!
One question which perhaps a more experienced member can answer: how come when my Topaz is in landscape, my wallpaper does not cover the entire landscape space - there is a empty black block to the left! - rotation is quick and very close to good (minor glitches from time to time...) - I could post a screen
Energy recently has included BsB Tweaks 1.6 in his ROMs - cannot attach a link for this, as I am still a newer member (remember all, the search function is there for us to use) - tonight I am going to see which is better, BsB or Gaz TD2 Tools - I will happily report my findings - anyone else bored enough or who has got the time to test out this new Sense and the add-ons we have available to us should please report your findings here!
I am going to try HDWall - never used it before, and could be a replacement for Max TF3D Theme Maker - again, I will report anything worth reporting.
I wonder if anyone can recommend a program or tweak/tweaks which will smooth out rotation (as if it exists!) - seriously, I do not get a lot of time to play around here on the XDA, and hopefully someone knows something I do not!
I love this stuff!!
16/20 quicklinks, tested both and they work perfect in [Energy.TOPAZ.21889.StandardM2.5_01.Feb.2010]. Awesome rom too.

You should have 2 wallpaper files in your windows directory, stwater_400_800.jpg and stwater_800_400.jpg, the latter is your landscape wallpaper. Check it and make sure it is the right resolution.
I did not have much success with BsB as it is for the HD and many tweaks wil not work, so the TD2 Tweak is better IMO.
Rock on!
Hi there, I've tired several combinations to install both 25 shortcut + call history for M2.5.20113030, but no success. Can anybody advice ? Thanks.
Bruce - thanks for the tip - I tried replacing my stwater-jpgs - no luck - still have a block on the right of the screen in landscape - this time with !Aman!'s TESS Leo IV - (excellent ROM, by the way) - I installed HDWall - and downloaded some cabs - but with NhatHoa's 21890 ROM I had no luck - I did no further experimentation, as I have very little time to devote to my phone - I am happy to flash and test and play when time allows! I am awaiting maxycy's next Max Manilla - I believe I read in the Max Manilla thread here on xda that Max Manilla 2.7 is functioning with Sense 2.5.20113030.0, with a tweak in the registry concerning landscape - I have not tried it myself, but if anyone does, please share your results - don't forget to include what ROM you are running!

I got 25 shortcuts and call history (listed above) working eventually in Energy.TOPAZ.21889.StandardM2.5_01.Feb.2010.
Had to change registry key to HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\EnableLandscape = false. Works fine after that.

Hi,
would you like to have up to 5 appointments on your home tab without loosing the flip clock and the weather animation?
Requires with Co0kie's Home Tab 1.6.1.
Here is my solution for you based on Co0kie's Home Tab 1.6.1. Thanks for that!
Please note that you need to always back up your system before installing such mods!
1. Install Co0kie's Home Tab 1.6.1
2. Install Advanced Home Tab
3. Restart HTC Sense and enjoy your new home tab.
Uninstall:
If HTC Sense does not work properly after uninstall - try to reinstall Co0ckie's Home Tab.
Version 1.6.1.1
Alignment & font size updated!

It's tested on Manila 2.5.20121412.1 [GER] with Co0kie's Home Tab Version 1.6.1.
looks very good!
how to install it? do we must delete old version and restart...or it doesn't mater?
works nice on miris 5.0 rom ....the only one thing...can you make the font color white...because its hard to see in the weather box
this is cool but can you make a version for users who don't use cookies home tab mod? It'll probably only be able to display 3 appts instead of 4 since the icons are bigger. or maybe you can make a version with 4x4 links with 4 appts and side-by-side weather/clock (without needing cookies mod of course).
New version with white weather texts is online!
Can somebody please post a screen shot with no appointments? Can call history be enabled?
side by side
here is side by side weather and clock only. no need for CoOkie's mod.
soft reset after install.

does this worj with themes like Laskartheme V2b
works fine on uk t-mob standard rom
this cab update + home tab + editor home tab, makes one of the most, beautifull mods of HS2.
Great Work!
Beautiful mod, thanks
This improves Co0kie's Home Tab 1.5.4 even more.
Installed and worked w/o any glitches. Thanks Hulzer
2 suggestions:
Please bold and increase the font for the date. It would be nice to have the day/date shown larger than appointments.
Is it possible to get the right time directly without making the clock move by 1 hour and 2 min before stabilizing? There are cabs to do this but I think they would be incompatible with this heavily edited mod.
I just uninstalled this cab, as i preferred a bigger clock. But now every time i boot up, it says manila.exe does not respond. What do i do?
thanks mate

Seriously dude ... Next time give some credit for the work others have done and not just copy and paste it.
You didn't even bother to change any of the values I created (width, height, space ...) in the home.mode9 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5662687&postcount=1412 ... Not cool.

Landscape problem
Your advanced home tab is really great but in landscape ....there is a problem that e.g. the Sun picture and 9°C should be some pixels lower because the sun is little bit cut

Thanks chalid,
I didn't remember where I got my base files from. Sorry for that. It was not my intention to keep your great work secret.
So as mentioned on my first post, this mod is based on chalid's modification which didn't show the nice flip clock.
Uninstal
Uninstalling your advanced home tab destroys HTC Sense....there is white backgrond under each shortcut and they are not moving properly...so make backup before installing is really needed
is there anybody interested to have a Picture Frame Widget for Co0kie Home Tab 2.0.0?

Right...ready!
CHTwPictureFrame.v1.60 (Meltwater's version)
You can now show all pictures of one folder. It will be displayed only 5, but easily replaced with other 5 (orderly or randomly) when you wish ...
Changes:
- PNG files are now also supported (order of files loaded are jpg, then jpeg, then png)
- folders with no images will not raise an exception any more
- sub-folders are not supported yet (maybe later!)
- Resize option (enabled by default) speeds everything up!
- Use image height and width to increase resolution - independent of CHT sizing (so work out a balance between resolution and size)
- Resize option will also preserve aspect ratio of image
- Resize option will also allow sense to load faster
- Selectable colour for resize padding (default is Black = FFFFFFFF)
- Popup menu should now go (done by force!)
- New images should be reloaded (done by force! - may need more work)
- Default images moved to \Windows\CHTwPictureHandler
- To set a folder from the settings menu, locate the required folder and select a file within it (the file is ignored and removed later)
No doubt a few extra tweaks will be needed, but I am happy enough with it!
Just looked back through the thread...quite a story to get here, but we now have a widget!
***DOWNLOAD CHTw PICTURE FRAME v1.60 (MELTWATER's VERSION) HERE ***
Installation process:
Uninstall previous versions
be sure you have installed JMLMenuSense 1.60 or higher, if not install it in device
install CHtwPictureFrame.v1.60.cab in device
enable in CHT Menu> edit layout (main or lockscreen) > add new element > PictureFrame
By pressing on the picture you get access to the pop-up menu, where make quick changes and access to setting menu. Store the frames and the pictures where-ever you wish, device or SD. By default frames are searched in \SD\CHTtweaks\frames

EDIT: INITIAL RELEASE Ok i managed to get something, but still need some better code. Up to now CHTwPictureFrame can show 1 or 2 pictures, in png & jpg format, easily selectable by a simple file explorer; manually set width & height; chose frame in .png format; enable switch pictures and set switching time; CHTwPictureFrame is resizable and pinneable, and can be displayed in CHT Lockscreen.
UPDATE 12JUN: I have added 5 pictures to display to v1.00 so thats enough for me. In case somebody wants other features I also upload the kitchen. Feel free to edit, modify, sell, mirror, use, delete, or whatever want to do with the files, but always have fun!
As usual needs JMLMenuSense 1.60 (or higher) for the setting menu, otherwise you can do all the settings directly in the registry HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\CHT.PictureFrame.XXX
Compatible with CHTS2.25: please use this fix
I will try to add the option to show a few more pictures or even a full folder, and some other features, but really need some help with the Lua code because my knowledge is very limited. This widget is free and use is not compulsory, i have tested in my HD2 and works but it does not mean it will work in yours. Anyway if you are having any trouble and post it here i will try to help you as much as possible.
I hope you enjoy!
Installation process:
Uninstall previous versions
be sure you have installed JMLMenuSense 1.60 or higher, if not install it in device
install CHtwPictureFrame.cab in device
enable in CHT Menu> edit layout (main or lockscreen) > add new element > PictureFrame
By pressing on the picture you get access to the setting menu. Store the frames and the pictures where-ever you wish, device or SD. By default frames are searched in \SD\CHTtweaks\frames

Love this idea! Can't wait to see what you come up with.
Yes would love tho see one please

Yes, yes, yes ))
have any chance for Search Widget poy ?
I see U made a search widget in dropbox .but seems it was stoped and no developing anymore?
Yess oo yes
Why not, but please be carefull with the code, poy. You do a good job...
About the search widget. It is done by me, for my personal use.
But it needs more and more performance with all things. So i have
stopped the dev for that. Also we have a search widget allways in
sense. The search engine can be changed too. But so many people
and so many issues. And then these lot of PM's with questions....
I WILL have that...
no sorry. Pay for it and you will have it. It is my time. Only the nice
and friendly asking people will have things. No others anymore after
this strange mail from XDA. I am thinking to stop the whole thing here
on XDA and sell my know how. Ahh i forgot i have no KnowHow.
XDA means i use only online kitchens. Whatever that is.

strange things with CHT nowdays, but there is always a chance .... who knows the future?
BTW can you read a word in the picture frame widget? yes CHTwNotes is the base for this new widget. Just will add a frame (skinable of course) and the option to easily change the picture from \SD\DCIM\100MEDIA. I have tested .jpg files and they works all right as .png does ....
Yes Please.
Can we have the option to automatically cycle through pictures in the folder like a slide show?

I like large areas for clicking. Also picture on home screen is larger then in cm. Nice.
Please, keep up the good work and all the best.

@vr5411: thank you for confirmation about working on HTC Desire. (I have added it to the "tested on" list)
Below is little sample for anyone interested.
When you have borring meeting or lesson...
just decorate your friend in Best Contact Widget
here is one of my friends after such "interesting meeting"
Whenever I call him I am smiling looking at my "art",
and it's wired but conversation is more friendly
Just remember to smile before call and everything goes easier.
Greetings!

Very nice widget. I would like to see the option of displaying the contact name instead of the picture, if that is possible.
@claus1953 : yes it is possible and I will work on it, it will be added into next release
Nice widget, simple interface. Works well on Xperia Arc. Thanks!!

I was wandering and there are several options:
1) transparent 1x1 widget with text contact name text
2) 1x1 widget with background light/dart with contact name text
and...
main window with call, text, email - disable image, put contact name text only...
What do you think would be most usable?
Thanks in advance!

Needs resizing for HTC wildfire,options are not visable.

@slymobi : first of all and quick will be done content scrolling it should solve problem
Thanks!

Just like I said some fixes took only few secs.
UPDATE! v01
uploaded into the first post
Sorry it does not seem to work now. When there is a picture available or none it always show's the widget icon only, no contact pic or in the text widget no contact name, just the widget name.

Reverted to nonscrollable config,
just shrinked it now - should work for most of screen sizes.
v01 replaced with new one - you can download it from the first post.
Sorry for such a hurry - I have to slow down
I will test it later and think about smaller screens.
Now everything should work... of not use initial release.

Ok seems to work ok now thanks a lot
