Change date appearance on Manila Home Screen - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hi All,
first of all best wishes for 2010!!
Can someone help me to change the date format on the Manila homepage of my HD2?? Whatever I change in the regional/country settings, the date on my HD2 Dutch 1.48 ROM shows di, 5 jan (tue, 5 jan). I want it to show 5-1-2010 or 5 jan 2010. Is this possible? Can somebody point me into the right direction?
Thanks in advance, Kuzibri

Manip on reg
If you want to do it yourself, go to the windows folder and find the file "17956b33_manila. Copy it onto your PC, open it with a text editor (eg notepad + +). Seeking two lines:
<trans-unit id="IDS_DATEFORMAT"> -> is the date displayed on the home below the weather
<trans-unit id="IDS_DATEFORMAT_SMALLVIEW"> -> is the date displayed on the small bar at the top when you display all the shortcuts on the home.
Then change the line right here, for me the better "d MM ddd" which will "Wednesday, December 25" For the day, if you put "ddd" you have the whole day if you put "dd" you will have the first three letters with a dot. Same for the month. For the year, yyy, yy if you put he should put 09 (I have not tested).
Then it remains you to transfer the new file to your phone and put it in the folder windows. A small soft reset, and that's it
Hope it helps
Franky

the Dutch file for changing the date format on the home screen is: 4dd5e23b_manila. Thanks to BeeGee_Tokyo.

Does anyone, by any chance, know what file to edit for the danish ROM?
Thanks in advance

How 2 change vodafone start menue background to standard?

Hi all,
I own a Vodafone VDA V (=HTC Vox). I have chosen the Windows standard start page with standard color scheme and standard background.
Everything appears fine, but only the backgound picture of the startmenue (where all the programs and preferences are) is still the "striped" greyish vodafone background.
Any ideas how to change this in the registry and what the name of the standard background picture is to which I then would referr to in the registry?!
TIA
All the standard icons are on the vodafone rom to get them there are 2 ways easy or registry changing
Now if you are really lazy and want to clear all your vodafone icons and change the start menu order then try the following app IBE tweaks ,
choose the image options in the menu
Now change the following for the icons
input phone number up .... windows\ms_mobile.gif , that gets rid of the grey vodafone icon and gives you the smartphone strip
for warnings ect ...
error promt ...windows\yell.gif
warning promt'...windows\yell.gif
information promt ... windows\info.gif
question promt ...windows\ques.gif
earphone volume ...windows\volume.gif
To get rid of the grey smartphone start menu background change start menu option to a photo you own , then choose save , after that go back and delete the startmenu option you just did and it will make the start menu go back to the original windows mobile colours
choose other options/menu startmenu sequence to change the start menu to what you want
The call screen has to be edited with a good reg editor go to ...
HKLM\security\phone\skin\PROGRESS\portrait\other and change the bmpnormal to cprogback.png
then go back and do the same in landscape and you will have the nice jet black calling backround
the application IBE tweaks comes with a 3 day trial so enough time to change your vodafone icons and start up screens if you want that changed as well just the reg needed for the calling screen
http://www.ibegroup.com/viewitem.aspx?ProductID=104
You can also do the above through resco registry ( as i did ) or simular but it takes longer
dont forget when you have finished back up your phone with sprite so if you hard reset it then its quick to get it back to vodafone free mode
problem solved
@wabbit
Can you please give a pointer to the registry keys to edit instead of using the tweak tool? Many thanks!

Yes please, describe how to change above mentioned with registry editor instead of ibe!
TIA
you can simply use the Modaco de-brand tool for free
i used it on my voda french and everything is ok, just bootscreen
HTML:
http://www.modaco.com/SPV-E650-de-Brand-Fix-P-t255845.html
the e650 de brand tool does not work as it adds folders that are not on the vodafone version which has alot of programmes in media which is not on the rom , you can use it but then you need to use a good explorer exe to delete the incorrect icons and folders , using the app i stated which has a 3 day trial ( enough time to change the icons and then delete it as the app is not required anymore )
well, it worked fine for me, it just added a java shortcut that doesn't work...
i'm still searching for a tool to remove ugly 'welcome' and 'good-bye' screens
Getting rid of the Vodafone welcome and good-bye screens would indeed be very nice
Thanks to wabbit - awesome!!
I got an "Access Denied" when I tried to alter my call screen through the registry (using MobileRegistryEditor.exe) but I guess my phone's locked? I need to research that more. Might explain why some other stuff that I've tried doing had little effect
Quick search of the forum later and phone app unlocked and the final bit done. Nice one!!
Sadly my vodafone s710 is being repaired as the joypad fell off as soon as i get it back i will post all the reg keys needed so you can tweak it yourselfs including removing the vodafone startup and shutdown screens
Vodafone screens
Any news for the voda on and off screens ??

Comm manager settings and S730 list style

Thanx to Dr. Martin Gonzo in this thread, we can now set the comm manager to the new HTC style!
Dr. Martin Gonzo said:
Here you go. Here is what I changed to it : it is the commmanager from HTC s730, I changed the skin, added vibrate option, created an icon for it and removed some other fonctions I don't use.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instructions:
Download the comm manager zip below and unpack the files into the windows folder.
the 2 things to change/add in the registry are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
"DisableButtonText"=dword:3 (sets the list-style comm manager)
"SupportedFunctions"=dword:6 (sets 6 buttons)
another thing: If you want to have the vibrate button instead of the directpush button in the list, simply rename in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager the folders 6 and 4
Good luck!
Additional info about comm manager:
in this Hermes thread ppl are discussing about the various comm manager options.
I'll copy them here and add some:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager]
"TurnOffPhoneDelay"=dword:0 ----> 0(delay) or 1(No Delay)
"DoNotQueryGPRS"=dword:0 ------>0 or 1 (Not sure what it does, defaulted to 0)
"UseMSFlightMode"=dword:0 ------> 0 or 1 Self Explaination
"TurnOnWLANInFlightMode"=dword:0 ------> 0 or 1(Flightmode Off will turn on WLAN together with Phone and Bluetooth)
"TextColor"=dword:0 -----> 0(white) or 1(Base Hue Color)
"EmptyMenuBar"=dword:0 ------>0(MenuEnabled) or 1(Menu Disabled)
"DefaultScheme"="" -------->use with DinamicBGImage
"SecondBMPResource"="" -------->Use with DinamicBGImage
"DynamicBGImage"=dword:0 ----> 0(static BG) or 1(Dynamic BG) Have not try this yet
"TurnOffAUTDInFlightMode"=dword:0 ----> 0 or 1 self explaination(AUTD is Push Email)
"UseBluetoothCPL"=dword:1 (Not sure what is does, defaulted to 1)
"DisableButtonText"=dword:3 (sets the list-style comm manager, set to 0 for button-style)
"SupportedFunctions"=dword:6 (sets 6 buttons)
So: play around with it and share which ones work on the Vox!
And here is the original skin !
It 's not work with me,
Could you please kindly provide the 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 directories important informations?
I think it's something wrong about this.
Thanks please,
I meant the Data Communication bar is not come up, but I got ActiveSync instead.
I think the best is you just export the whole Comm Manager key and upload it here. Thank you again
EDIT:
Stupid question, I already have it:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
"SupportedFunctions"=dword:5
"UseBluetoothCPL"=dword:1
"DisableButtonText"=dword:3
"UseMSFlightMode"=dword:1
"TurnOffAUTDInFlightMode"=dword:1

I think the CommManager.exe.040C.mui as I had two other CommManager.exe.0407.mui and CommManager.exe.0409.mui. It is not working here. Any ideas?
@frauhottelman:
you publish the wrong registrydump:
-the SupportedFunctions must be 6 instead of 5
-in the folders 4, 5 and 6 you have 3x vibrate. If you want to see Vibrate, put it as 4 and make 5 DataDisconnection and 6 AUTD
- what is exactly your question about the mui?
@mobile24h:
- I don't understand your question. Don't you see the new comm at all or are you speaking about 1 specific line in the comm manager?
I know the vibrating thing, but that is the registry dump which i got from Dr. Martin Gonzo, I changed that already. The thing is I think mobile24h has the same problem, the Comm manager shows up, but it is the old design from the S710 now with only 6 buttons! That is all that shows up and it is stupid, because the soft keys don't work and the icon bar on top with battery and so on doesn't show up!

try playing around with the "DisableButtonText"=dword:3 function. Change it to 0, 1, 2, 4 etc. I have the ARA 1.27 rom, and it works perfect for me. The setting 0 is the classic version for me, and 3 the new one.
Just use a taskmanager to kill the commmanager proces, and start it again after just adjusted the setting to see the results!
good luck, let me know if this helped!
ps, which language ru using? Mine is english, so the mui is 0409
Mh I tried from 0-5 but it didn't change anything. I am using German, but I tried with US and UK English as well. Maybe the old ROM I am using 1.16.407.1 doesn't support it?!
Hey could you upload the commManager.exe from Windows? Maybe that changed with the new rom!?
Maybe a stupid question, but how do I copy the files to the windows directory. I'm not able to overwrite some files. (They are in use...)
Thanks in advance for the help.
You have to stop the processes which use these files. E.g. if you want to overwrite something that is used by the CommManager.exe, you have to kill that process.
I am closer now, the problem is that the CommManager.exe and CommManagerRes.dll are hidden and I didn't copy them. But now the problem is that it doesn't show text like Bluetooth or Wifi
YEAH
It finally works!!!!!!!!
Here I made a package without hidden files. Just kill CommManager.exe, copy contents of windows folder to your phone's windows folder and overwrite all. Then apply CommManager.reg. Done
thank you or cleaning my messy work !
could someone post polish mui file for this comm manager? (with 415 number in filename)
Hm I don't think anybody has, but you can change the MUI yourself. Just rename it to the right number and open with notepad. There you should see some weired stuff and then things like S e t t i n g s i think when you just change all of them to polish it should work?! Would you try that and then report back if it works?
You should rather use a resource hacker program instead of notepad. That's what I did and it works. Search for reshack or XN Resource Editor in Google
ok I've translated almoust everything but in english mui file there are some french words, if someone could translate it to english I would be grateful
Words:
"Désactiver toutes les connections"
"Désactiver radio" - Is that mean the same as "Turn off phone"?
"Relancer les connections"

[Apr 2, 2008] WM6.1 CHS/WWE "poium"

This ROM was linked in the WM6.1Pro thread, but it is a Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard ROM. I don't have the build information available, because the About applet is missing.
It defaults to CHS (Chinese), but English is included. You'll either have to regedit the language (HKCU\MUI ... set the value to 0x409) or change it "blind" via Settings/Regional Settings.

Performance...?News build in rom...?
I am trying
same clean rom.
plus
1-jawa (esmertec jbed)
2-open/close sounds
3-black screen saver
4-resco explorer
5-new icon
Anybody else going to report on this rom?
I flashed it and ran out of room on the Rom pretty quick. I put on M$ VC 1.6, Live messenger, T-9 English in the main memory, then I put on Live Search, Google Maps, Sirius, Office, Adobe, and oxiosmemory. I was left with about 3mb on the main Rom.
Every reboot, It went back to chinese in the Regional settings, so I had to keep resetting that back to English. Other than that. Fast as ever. Everything works on it.

I'm not able to do the path for the sliding panel apps launcher , any step by step help will be appreciate , thx
This is realy cool
I have tested this version and Its working preatty fast and sooth. MY SP5 picks all nicely and all net options and key mappings are fine. aditional optios for activating/deactivating sms threading. New pannel to run your own programes from home screen ...if you are fine with xml, you can custermize this the way you want. basicly having extended mail box and Nitrogens screen notificantions from his WM6 palitinum rom ...this is the best version so far.
As usual , again a request for all our experts (nitro specialy for you ) just use this kernal as the base and release a extended version like WM6 palitinum SP1.

Software path : actual path of the programe.
Eg: "\windows\camera.exe" without quotes !
Picture path : insert as above any icon to be displayed.
File name: Application name that you need to display in the slider.
Text name :Aditional discription if need to see on the slider.
thx mate !

WM does not identify taga as a native picture format. use .ico/png/gif or jpg.
further you can use icon off the any DLL file.however you have know about icon ID and call that in Picture path:
Eg: Picture path : 4601 , means icon "play".
Lead it into the Windows Directory, or, Just open the registry with registry editor and see how they did it. I could only get a few to work. I ran out of Ram so I flashed back to Gnats rom.
This is quite possibly the best rom I have tried. I've been using it for a couple of days and still haven't found a bug I couldn't fix myself.

Ok, You may need to have a addon with the plugin, to access the default icon from the any app you are going to access with. this is still in opening stage and sure, our experts will come up with more solutions with addon. anyway sice this is very fine tuned OEm tornado 6.1 rom I strongly recomending not to go with any registry edits for just showing the default icon. you have 2 solutions, 1. use any icon packeger and dump the default icon from your app, copy it to your phone then update the path using icon path. 2. use smiler icon from the dll.
I just found the same subject off another thread and you may find more advance options for custermizing this slider.

Change date format without program?

I would like to change the date format on the home screen of touch flo 3d...
I know there are ways to do it with programs, as I have advanced config and can choose from the dropdown. It just doesn't have the format I want available.
Is there any way to change it in a manila or a program that will give me the option to show it like this:
Sunday Nov 30, 2008
The closest I got was Sunday 30 November 2008, but it is too long and cuts 2008 to 20C (not a c but half a 0)...

Do you know how to play with registry? From there you can make the date look like whatever you want. But still, you need a program to do registry edit job.
yes i can and know how... i just don't know where that registry key is located...

16 shortcuts problems Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 TT UPDATED

sorry i am french my english is poor
i would like to use this cab but when i have put shortcut
i can not delete shortcuts 10 to 16 i can only delete shortcut 1 to 9
some one can help me ??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=254834&d=1260372211
Thanks Michel the frenchy
Yep, thats a known problem. The remove function of sense wont work with 10-16. You have to manually delete them with a registry editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Home
There youll find folders for all your quicklinks starting from 0 to 15. To delete a shortcut go into the desired folder (0 is the first quick link on the top left) and set all strings to nothing (empty them) and all DWord values to 0.
You can delete one of the first shortcuts in sense and take a look at the values yourself when this slot is empty. Just in case you are not sure how to set those values.
thanks for your help
not easy but it is THE solution !
no boby have a cab for a 16 shorcuts or an update for this one ?
Thanks
i have found an other solution
Look on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609065&highlight=call+history+home
you have in the same time the 16 shortcuts cab !
and all is ok for me run great
is there a solution?
I just installed this application but like the topic starter I have the problem of not being able to delete shortcuts 10 to 16.Anybody already have an easy solution without entering the registry? A cab file maybe?
Sorry, already found the solution as mentioned above
Doesn't work ,slow, no quickslots at all, my hd2 is now i little slower thanks.
call history appears but no quick links at all
manila 2.5.20113224.0
