as written by Title, is possible to increase the scrolling speed of the star menu?
I don't know if is possible to set a parameter with one system editor..i would like to have a scrolling as,for example,in the program "S2U2",and precisely when you chose in this program your wallpaper because is too much fast of the normal velocity of the htc star menù
I hope I don't ask too much.
thanks in advance!
is my first post and so I would to thanks all of you for your fantastic work for htc device,thanks so much, because now I love my device.
I love this forum!
I hope someone can help me, I think is not difficult for all of you.

ok, i see you are talking about the start screen and i guess you do not know that scrolling here is programmed to stop after each screen.
for each swipe the screen is scrolling and it stops when full, next swipe another one screen down and so on...
the scrolling is not continuous like in the all programs or contacts but it is screen by screen. this gave you the impression that is slow.
this is done so u are not going to "over shoot" / over scroll and then have to scroll back.
i know i might be not clear enough but this the best i can do.
i do not think u can improve it.
is the START MENU'
excuse me to all.
I forget the "T" letter.

I understand,thanks for your explanation, is precisely that I tried to say,but english is not my language and it is for me not simply to say.
thanks so much for your interest.
if someone discover a method to increase it,say me.
thanks =)
ah-start menu. I read star,then s2u2,then wallpaper...so I was confused.
Did you tried this:

This start menu make my crazy too .
For me this is absolutly stupid way to scroll page by page.
The idea of this kinetic scroll (if I not wrong with the name) is the scroll distance to depend of the finger slide speed.
If somebody have solution, I will be grateful too!
You need to flash either a WM6.5.X ROM (builds 28xxx and 23xxx) or a ROM based on Windows Mobile build 23016.
OR you try this: Copy the physicsengine.dll file from the attached .zip to your Windows directory and overwrite the old one. Then restart the device.
You need a file manager like Total Commander or Resco Explorer for this, the built in File Explorer is not able to overwrite system files.
However, this could do all sorts of damage to your system, maybe it won't boot anymore or something else. Try it at your own risk

so,I must only Copy the physicsengine.dll file to my Windows directory for overwrite the old one and reset, is correct?
Yes, but I cannot guarantee that it will work, and you should maybe back up your system before you do this.
Ok so firstly i have spent 30minutes checking and im yet to find it, if its already been asked/answered then sorry .
Im basically looking to remove the useless items(for me) on the home screen :
The weather- I check this on the seperate tab so i dont need it
The massive clock- Blocking majority of the screen, has time on the top right so again no need.
Disable quicklinks unless i scroll down the home page(i think this is possible already)
Calendar- Tried removing and is still there.
Im trying to minimise the stuff on the screen to admire the wallpapers , havent found a way through the options or via cab's to do any of this, if anyone has suggestions then id appreciate it .
Using duttys leo cooked rom, Manila 2.5.20113626
MaxManila (which you can find here at xda) is able to customize almost anything you might want to change - adding or hiding elements is easy.
There may be other options of course, but I think this is the most convenient.
Just make sure you install the correct version for your Manila.

thanks for the reply and links, however i did try those in that thread and i ended up with my HD2 failing to load htc sense . Id rather remove the features than make them transparent apart from the slider which i managed to make transparant .
What section is the download for MaxManila in?. Is it specific for hd2 or is it somewhere else, cant find it on its own in here so far .
edit: actually no i missed the no clock from your link! I tried the other parts originally , just tried it and it works perfectly now however i stillk need to somehow get rid of the calendar and weather along with quicklinks .
Hello,
I wonder if anyone is able to/wants to help me?
I am looking for confirmation of the manila file names for CHT 1.8... (I have been browsing the forum but can only find cabs and not the file names for this)
I have been looking through the files by using cfc-gui but I can’t confidently identify the right files!!
I just want to personalise my own files, initially to achieve a transparent home screen, but ongoing to something else.
The clock files are identified on the CHT thread, but not the bars/panels.
I think I have identified the following files (for not-pressed bars), but on modifying them and loading them onto the phone (in the Windows folder, and then restarting manila, and also soft resetting) they don’t all seem to change as I expected.
These ones do work:
0B7F6995_manila = appointment expand/pull-down grip
30D807DA_manila = thin bar with rounded corners to ‘finish’ lower appointment
0d61c97c_manila = date bar
740dc76b_manila = alarm bar
These ones don’t work:
43A0289_manila = appointment list bar
77BAF4F0_manila = notifications full bar
(if these aren’t what I think they are, then what have I changed by modding these files??!!)
I can see from various mods on this forum that people are able to change the files I want to work with, so I must just be playing with the wrong files.
Any help would be good, and it’ll save me time by further searching many pages of the forum and struggling to identify the files in the Windows folder (which is proving very difficult it seems).
Thank you.
it would be good if there was a manila library on here somewhere - cfc-gui is a really good tool, but it's just not doing a proper job for me on this occasion!!!
PS: I have current version 1.66 standard UK ROM on HD2, non-network specific. My CHT 1.8 is working fine, no issues, I just want to mod it a bit!
Agree with the above would be good if there was a list available as took me ages just to find the default cover art for music and couldn't find the mini music player background. I'm using cfc-gui as well and there's as many/if not more files under unknown as there are with headers which makes it really difficult. I've just been going through them 1 by 1 and I'm going to try edit a few on the weekend so will let you know what I find.
Cheers - any help on this would be appreciated. There are loads of mods for this already, but not many sharing info!!
I'll keep on looking...
In the meantime, if anyone else can assist - much appreciated it will be!
If anyone is interested, I found what I was looking for:
10376502_manila = notifications bar
438A0283_manila = appointments bar
I've attached all of these files as transparent in the .zip below. The only one that isn't fully transparent is the pull-down grip which I have added little grip dots to it so you know where it is, otherwise transparent.
** Back-up original files from the Windows folder before overwriting! **
the clock white background remains white, Any updates of others ?
nice work, i liked it, when ever I flash a new rom I was installing transparencies.. not anymore...
I hope you keep up with this threat...
can you show a picture of this please!!
many people will be much help if you put screenshot..if you ask someone's help try to help someone also and someone will apreciate yours

I can't quite work out what it is - is it a transparent clock? - if so, which sort?
Aren't there plenty of clocks for CHT on XDA already, do they not work?

Depending on which files you edited..... you might be able to get them back by installing/uninstalling/reinstalling CHT..... maybe.....
Which particular files do you need...??
if by chance I have them backed up Ill post them for you... I dont have that many though....
There is a link in the FAQ section of the CHT thread's main post from Co0kie, for transparencies and some graphics restore cabs.
That should help answer some of your questions.
If you have any other questions still after looking at those cabs and files, let me know.
You can go directly to that thread to the first post where the link is, by clicking the CHT banner in my sig., or clicking the link above will take you there directly.
thanks for the responce guys! i'm actually not sure what manilla files they are lol, i just know there the ones which make the calendar and call history transparent. i've tried re-installing CHT but transparency is still there, it wasnt a cab see. i overwritten the original files with zip file on page one. but would like the glass panel look which dinik created. installing dinik theme the transparent calendar/call history is still there. someone who backed up the manila files before installing that zip file could help... were are they!! lol

I have attached the original files that you highlighted a couple of posts above...
in the zip file are the original files if you want to drop them in manually, or a cab file for if you want to do it the easy way - all it does is place the two manila files in the windows folder, and it's not going to appear in the applications list either (you can't 'uninstall it'), its a one-way cab.
Thanks for all your help guys but looks like its not to be. they were the right manila files but after getting rid of the transparency`s and installing diniks theme everything has the glass panels but calender/call history. maybe the rom i`m using is affecting the theme (cleanex rom). but again thanks for your help guys.
Just curious. I always see people talking about making or sharing wallpaper cab's, and I am wondering what the advantage is of doing it that way instead of just saving pics to the storage card and setting from there? That''s what I do, but maybe I am missing a better way in these .cabs...

It's called HDwall. By default, the quality of wallpaper in HD2 is low..seems kinda blur. With this cab, it is possible to get higher wallpaper quality. Also u can set the taskbar and softkeybar background (u can make it looks as if transparent).
But that's old time.
With the new CHT 1.8.5 there's no need such application. It has this ability built in.

Because CAB files which contain wallpapers in Manila format can overwrite original manila files.

man...u've done wrong...if u installed cht. no need anything else. that would make it crash. cht got everything. hdwall, bg4all tab. just cookie. np need anything else.
After the HDWall thingy installed via CHT 1.8 - I have an issue.
I do have plenty of sweet backgrounds to chose from. It all works fine with CHT except a feature that I did love very much - the Randomnes.
I have for several years both on Diamond and on HD2 used a .cab named:
Kevin2u Diamond Background Changer v015.
This .cab would pick a random picture from a designated folder every x minute as your liked it. After CHT v1.8 - this ain't working anymore. On CHT v1.7 it worked.
Have any of you guys been able to get a random picture prg. to run on top of CHT v1.8?
If so help me see the light as I really miss the feature that my phone has a new background every now and then when I grab it without manually picking a new picture.
Kindly
Kwas
Nevermind - Search Function did this one for me - sorry for bothering

So I go to miscellaneous settings and check what under wallpaper Regular, HD Wall or HQ Wall? I have tried them all but only the hd wall setting lets me access the Regular wallpapers not the cab files. Help?
so I have a question. If I installed the latest version of CHT, I already have HD Walls installed? all I have to do now is check HDwall in miscellaneous settings, download the cab for the wallpaper, install, and soft reset? Do I install to the card or device? And one more question, Do I have to uninstall aything to change to another HD wallpaper? Sorry for all the noob questions

Actually you can dl the cab and just run it without anything (Ithink). It's all within the cab. I believe hd wall is the organizer but it never worked for me. Not sure how CHT works in with this.
You don't need to install any cabs with CHT (1.8.5 at least, can't remember about 1.7).
From the home screen tap Menu>>Set Wallpaper. All of the options are there on the next screen (Home Tab, All Tabs, Lockscreen, Taskbar Skinning)
Sometimes the things in front of your eyes are the hardest to find!
Hi guys, I tried the search function as well but can't seem to find a solution to my problem.. Help is much much appreciated!
I'm on the Artimis Rom v25, with cookies 1.8.5, i downloaded the .cab wallpaper, tried to install.. didnt work, i downloaded the wallpaper fix download, Didnt work so i gave up... so i tried to go back to cookies editor to change my wallpaper back to the one i had, and it didnt work. I have a totally back wallpaper and can't seem to change it in anyway!
HelPPP i'm losing it!!......

That's correct. If you really want the wallpapers that are in the cabs, I believe you can open the cab files on your pc and extract them manually. Don't quote me on that but it would seem logical. Or you could ask the OP of any walls you like to point you in the direction of the source.

A little help in case it's needed...
I think I know what you are aiming at...
1./ You'd like to change your wallpaper. It's the easiest thing what you can do on a WM device, just go to Windows Settings > Home > Mark "Use this picture as the background" and Browse your file(s).
Or in the Manila settings go to Personalize and then to Home tab wallpaper, and select a file...
Or if you want to have the same background in All Tabs, install CHT Editor, and then in the Home Tab click "Menu", and select Set Wallpaper.
Here you can find as many pictures as you want...
2./ You want to have a percentage-displayed battery icon, don't you? THIS will do the trick (works only on the 1.66 ROMs!), just download and then install to the Device Memory, do an SR, and experience the difference!
If you have a dissimilar ROM to 1.66, download this "circular" % battery icon! THREAD LINK (XDA)
Hope I could help...

Sorry, the HD2 have "Sense 2.5" interface, instead of Manila, I made a mistake when I wrote it. The Manila 2D / 3D is the former interface on the older HTC phones, but since the Touch Diamond 2 it has changed to Sense 2.x!
So the Sense is the main interface on the HD2, it appears first when you switch your device on, and if you want to change the wallpaper, go to Settings Tab > Personalize > Home tab wallpaper and select a file of yours.
You can find out what ROM version you have at the Settings Tab as well, just go to "About Phone" and choose "Software information", and check "ROM version" out!
I have
Manila version 2.5.20
Rom version 1.72.206
Radio version 2.07
Will the clock download work for me ?

Hi John,
It wasn't my intention to be rude, actually I was trying to be helpful. Although I must admit that I could have used some more/other words. I really think that the best help is to learn to use the search function. I've also asked for help, even frequently, but never after I searched for the answer myself.
Sincerely,
Mac
