New Clocks - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hi all
Please could someone advise on how to install new clocks or icons. Looking for a Step to Step guide on this
Thanks
Geordie502

**HOW TO INSTALL: FOR PEOPLE WHO PROVIDE CABS**
1. Turn off Sense (start/settings/today/items de-select "HTC Sense")
2. Un-install any other custom clock cabs you have.
3. Copy the cab to your device (ignore the Manila Folder) Run your choice of cab.
4. Enable Sense
**HOW TO INSTALL: PEOPLE WHO JUST PROVIDE THE MANILA FILES- ***
1. Turn off Sense (start/settings/today/items de-select "HTC Sense")
2. Un-install any other custom clock cabs
3. Copy the "Manilla" folder of your chosen clock to your storage card (ignore the cab) then Using Total Commander (or something similar) Copy the files in the "Manilla" folder (not the folder itself) to the "windows" directory of your phone, over-writing any files already there.
4. Enable Sense.
Here is a handy description of what each Manila file is, so you can mix and match the hands etc
20F62884_manila - Clock Face
0AB9C3F4_manila - Hour Hand
4BDFBA48_manila - Minute Hand
2A87D392_manila - Second Hand
7126E342_manila - Clock Dot

hope this helps

Thanks very much for the information........Dont surpose you know anything on my first Post about the Calendar Fonts to make them more bolder so you can see through the back ground picture.

See if this info applies to you. Its from Blue Angel forum, please read further on this post

Ok i will give you difrend guide (proper one):
1. Copy shellres.96.dll from \windows to your sd card (of my rom) and rename it to shellres.96.dll.0409.mui - if you replace the original file for this rom you may encounter unpredicted bugs thats why it is more safe to use mui file
2. Copy the file to your computer
3. Extract original resources to a folder using Resource Tuner(Resource Hacker can not extract them) or a similar program (the resources are icons 8,9,24 - 8 and 9 are exactly the same so you me skip extracting 9 but later you have to replace it too)
4. Open the old shellres.96.dll (you can get it from suns kitchen for example) extract the same resources into a difrend
5. Open the old and new resources with icon editor (i used ArtIcons - open all icons) and copy the new resources to the old ones which will give you old sized icons with new looks
6. Add the resources back to the mui file with Resource Hacker - you can also delete all other resources since they are not needed and they already are in shellres.96.dll
7. Sign the file with SignCode and proper certificate (i used SamplePrivDeveloper because it is privileged one - taken from wm6.1 sdk)
8. Now you can either copy the mui to windows folder or make a cab to do this for you.
setup xml will not work added your way because you add it as file and not as setting - but if you need to you can add it with WinCE Cab Manager as a provisioning xml info and it will add it to configuration
My fixes added to the second post
OK-X-Fix.cab uses the original resources of this build with proper size and they are edited a little by me to have better looks
OK-X-FixL.cab uses large resources - like in the rom but antialiased

Perhaps, you can ask Explode if this guide would apply to other phones.
Good Luck!
Do try to mod shellres96.dll, I tried on my blue angel running WM6.1 and it worked i just changed the startmenu icon. I dunno if this file is present in WM6.1 standard or not,

EVERYONE ONE I HAVE IT I FINALY DID IT AFTER TRYING ALL DAY TO DO IT I HAVE IT AND THIS IS HOW IT YOU CAN SEE PICTURES OF MY IPHONE http://flickr.com/photos/okilic/sets/72157594484670553/
AND THESE ARE THE ZIPS FOR THE IPHONE

http://rapidshare.com/files/12979949/osx_wad.rar.html
AND THIS IS THE ZIP FOR THE DIALPAD
http://rapidshare.com/files/12980142/Dialpad_iPhone.rar.htm
TO INSTALL IT:
download the rar files, and extract them into your desktop
for wisbar advance desktop:
copy osx_WAD folder to into your pda in Themes/desktop/ folder
(root/Themes/Desktop/osx_wad/)
and click theme settings icon in the settings panel or the load wisbar advance and click desktop, select theme manager and select the osx_wad theme
for wisbar advance:
copy osx_WA folder into stroge card or the ramdisk folder.. click wisbar advance settings in the programs/wisbar advance/wisbar advance settings… select custom theme, press customize and press import theme button.. select the osx_wa.skin file which you copied to where did you want and press ok… it’s done!
for dialpad skin:
copy the cab file into your pda phone and run in file explorer.. select the root directory to install.. and reset the phone
YOU ARE DONE HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!!
i already installed it for my wisbar in my dopod838 pro.... its pretty neat but the dialer was givin alot of problems to me like no contact list etc etc.... so i have unistalled it...
what you could do is keep everything else and just not install the dialpad that is why i have the dial pad and the other zips seperate so you have a choice that is what i would suggest
I Have Found Vista Skin (for Ppc)
CLICK THIS LINK FOR VISTA PORTABLE EDITION (vga)
http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=127129
NOTE: go past the pictures on the site i have given you you will come across a section that says download under there you will find the links
wow nice skin. Ca you pls create a VGA version of Dialpad skin?
um i am not shore about a vga version i realy haven't tried i'll see what i can do
maybe im retarded today. i was able to load the wisbar with the cingular on top. but i dont see the theme destop folder on my wizard. i have claunch though should i use that as an alternative? or could guide me through something im missing.
That Happend To Me Once Have You Tried To Load It Again?
need to have the dialer look the same in landscape.. plz fix it
don't know what you are talking about
A few reasons why you cannot see the desktop:
What is in the folder osx_wa it should be two other folder and files, if you have another folder named osx_wa you have messed up the unzip/ extract files (I did this on my first attempt so its easy done).
Do you actually get to select osx_wa when setting the custom desktop in wisebar advance desktop? - if not try this - go to start/ settings/ today and select the today screen to Windows Default - now see if you can see the osx_wa file in WA Desktop.
Try selecting the file again and for some reason it will appear - looks like others have experianced this as well, I found it frustrating at times to say the least - but its worth it in the end. It works well on the Wizard - Mike
just did that and i was able to change my theme. but i only see the three themes that came with my device. where is the theme folder located on the 8125.
Have you installed WiseBar Advance 2 AND WiseBar Advance 2 DeskTop Plugin to the device? - the Desktop plugin creates the theme folder to put the osx_wad folder in to - Mike
got it thanks dude. now i just gotta get the hang of the icons
how do u load the icons. i was able to get the clownfish as my wallpaper and i was able to get the slidelock dock but no slidelock arrow.

Comm Manager Fonts messed up - Pic attached

hi,
does anyone know how to fix this?
Check this font's name (using Word) and find all *.ttf files using Total Commander CE. Find this font's file and:
a) if it's in \Windows, move it to \Windows\Fonts
b) if it's in \Windows\Fonts, move it to \Windows
After reboot everything should be ok.
thanks

Add cities

Does anybody know how to add new cities on weather tab?. I want to add mine in Spain. I tried to use the editor for Diamond 1 but doesn´t work on D2.
Tanhs a lot.
Add your own city to weather tab:
Credit to turnstar
1. Copy 2330fc3c_manila from your windows directory onto your PC
2. Download SQLite Administrator.
3. Download WeatherDatabaseEditor 1.2 and install to your device (you won't actually be using this but it adds a reg key that is essential to making this work. (I'm not sure what it adds but this is what the orig instructions I read said to do))
4.Open the manila file using SQLite Administrator on your PC (make sure you select all files when trying to open or it wont show up) then select the "Edit Data" tab and highlight cities in the tree on the left, all you gotta do now is pick a city you'd never use and edit the CityName, Country and accuweathercode to match the city you plan to add.
5. Place the edited copy of 2330fc3c_manila into your windows directory and soft reset the device.
6. Go into the TF3D weather tab and select your city from the list (this will also add your city to the calender tab)

Thanks. It's work for me.
Yesss!. Works very well. Thanks a lot.
Oh yesss works a treat. Had to install Total Commander to transfer the edit file back to the Windows Folder though as the standard File explorer wouldn't let me do it.
Another intuitive TF3D configuration option from HTC
Worked also for me on my TD2, but i didn't use the WeatherDatabaseEditor version 1.2, instead of that i also installed Total Commander on my phone. With Total Commander i just copied the edited "2330fc3c_manila" file from the memory card to the \Windows directory off the phone.
Looking at the Cab file for WeatherDatabaseEditor, the only registry change it makes is:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.ServerURLOverride="http://weather.not2advanced.com/htcweather/forecastdata.php?ac=XDADevs&locCode=%25ls&version= 1&device=innovation"
Just thought I'd point that out for those who will end up making a Cab file to install the weather modification as needed when re-flashing instead of installing unnecessary software again.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - but there's no way to overwrite the original file with the edited one. All I'm getting is 'The original file is in ROM and cannot be replaced'. I'm doing it via Resco Explorer. Any suggestions?

Manila Today Page (MTP) v0.4.0.0 for HD2

EDIT: Okay, I found the solution myself
Once again, for every HD2 User...MTP is working fine on the HD2, here´s how to set it up:
1. Install MTP
2. Turn off Sense (otherwise you won't be able to perform step 3).
2. install MTP Apple Icon.zip (if you want to have the apple icon instead of the silver windows one...i made a *.cab here)
3. Under \windows delete the file ManilaFull.xml.
4. With a registry editor, delete the key \HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration.
5. Activate Sense and reorder your tabs (by deleting xml and reg key you'll revert to default order).
Have fun, I´m using it with calendar+...good alternative
Screenshots plzzz........

1. This folder seems to represent the arrangement of the slidericons in manila (default: 12 icons --> 12 subfolders in this folder)...i hope this answered your question.
2. Right! RegKey = Point 4, xml = Point 3

Would the deleted ManilaFull.xml be restored automatically should we uninstall MTP?
Basically, I don't want to screw up the original Manila after installing/uninstalling MTP. MTP is uninstallable, ya?
I havn´t screwed up anything after deinstalling MTP...just delete the manilafull and the configurationkey again and...finish!
Thanks for the clarification.

i do understand your comment Nagrom Nniuq That´s why I´ve written "once again, for every HD2 user". I didn´t want to bask in s.o. glory here, as you can see, I have edited my first post, because once there was the question how to bring the MTP Icon into the manila settings to reconfigure the position of it. I deleted the question as soon as I found the solution paryav gave in the post you´ve linked above.
Sorry if this has lead to some bad thoughts. Just wanted to share the solution
PS: I only added the Cabfile for the apple-icon and corrected the manual within this point

Hi,
Thank you for all these good work.
I installed your Manila TV tab with no problem.
the MTP with the above steps for me is installing and the tab is in my manila but everytime I reboote, it give me and error which my manila is not supported, unable to patch.
also my windows have a start button at the bottom and when I add plugins in MTP configuration, I don't have the OK button to save it in the config.
I have the same issue with your MTP v 5 .
My Rom is : Cap's special 6.5 with sense 2.5
OS version : 5.2.28011
Manila : 2.5.19211619.0.cfc
Rom version : 5.12.28011 WWE
Radio : 1.17.25.09
nobody wants to put screen shot?
Can anyone guide me through the uninstallation?
