Give HTC Sense 2.5 a Makeover with Max Manila 2.6

mushipkw — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:51:04 +0000

Maxycy is well known on XDA-developers for his HTC Sense tweaks. He recently updated his most popular project, Max Manila, to version 2.6. Max Manila 2.6 beta is an all-in-one tweak that lets users easily change many aspects of HTC Sense, such as the layout and functionality. Users of Max Manila are able to quickly cycle through different clock types with a single screen tap, adjust the amount of quick link slots on the home tab, retract the slider, put the interface into full screen, and much more.

As you can see in the images, a new row of icons are placed on the home tab. These are for notifications and will open your call history, calendar, SMS and Email tabs. They can be enabled or disabled. The quick links for your favorite programs, contacts, and bookmarks have been expanded from 9 to 12 (3×4). These can be quickly changed to 16 (4×4) or 20 (5×4) as well. Much of the home tab properties can be added or subtracted until you find a layout that works for you. Even if you disable everything, but the clock, you will still be able to swipe up to get to the quick links – this is great for those who like a very clean look.

There are also many hidden shortcuts available when using Max Manila. Tapping the top-center of the screen, where the carrier bar exists, will allow you to cycle many different clock layouts (8 in total – digital/analog). When in full screen, tapping the top-left part of the bar will open the Start menu and the top-right will open a battery monitor. With full screen disabled, tapping the top-left will send you to the contacts tab and the bottom-right will direct you to the settings tab. You can return to the home tab at any time by pressing the back (hardware) key. Swiping left or right leads to the Max Manila settings, where you can easily make changes by tapping on the icons.

Remember, this is a beta, so there will probably be some rough edges. For now, it is only available for WVGA (VGA in the works) devices running Sense 2.5. All the adjustable options found on the settings screen are listed below. Grab the Max Manila 2.6 CAB file from XDA-developers (post #4). See notes below for add-on cabs for skinned notifications and clocks.

Disable HTC Messaging in TouchFlo v2.5

mushipkw — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:23:08 +0000

Since Manila v2.5 HTC has designed and developed a completely new text messaging application (HTC Messaging App) to replace the old Windows messaging application for the entire SMS/text messaging functionality. Some of you may not be affected by the poor performance of HTC messaging app. But it’s so poor that despite trimming text messages to just 200, every operation (open message, compose a message, etc) takes a few seconds at least, and it is just not usable. It looks as if HTC has designed, developed and tested with just a handful messages in mind.

So xda user Zenkinz did some investigation, and found out a way to disable HTC messaging app, and revert back to the original Windows messaging application, i.e. pocket outlook, for text messaging. Technically speaking, it’s a combination of registry tweak and a small patch utility he wrote to overcome a bug/problem as a result of disabling HTC messaging application.

TouchFlo 2.5 working on VGA Devices

mushipkw — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:02:55 +0000

The new version of TouchFlo v2.5 is officially available only for new generations of devices such as Touch Diamond2 or TouchPro2, but user Akeo over at XDA made it work on VGA devices. Run the beta on your device too.

The beta is out and has bugs, The footprint tab does not function, some tabs have some slight alignment problems as well which sometimes leads to items at the bottom being hidden and there is no landscape mode (it never realigns so you get a portrait image that is cutoff at the bottom). The photo tab has the pic slightly too large so the bottom is cut off but it moves a lot faster than TF3D 2.1.

Head over to XDA to grab it.

Run TouchFlo 3D, SPB Mobile Shell 3 & Classic Today Together

mushipkw — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 11:45:32 +0000

Switch between Professional, Funky & Formal lifestyle easily, with this tutorial setup to run SPB Mobile Shell, TouchFlo 3D & Classic Windows Mobile Today together & switch between them seamlessly.

Watch the video after the jump.

What you Need:

1. Second Today (Download)
2. MS3 Toggler (Download)

What to do:

Basically we are going to use Second Today to switch between Touchflo 3d and classic today screen, and also to remap the soft keys to switch between

1. TF3D and Classic
2. TF3D and MS3
3. Classic and MS3

Step 1: Firstly the problem is that MS3 loads at start up and overides TF3D. Therefore go to Program files on your device and make a backup of the file MobileShell and then delete it (alternatively you could just cut and paste it somewhere else like i did). This prevents MS3 from booting on startup.

Step 2: Install second Today.

Step 3: Install MS3 Toggler (this allows you to toggle between MS3 and TF3D)

Step 4: Do a soft reset.

Step 5: Touchflo 3d should be launched on startup, if it is not then go into the today settings and enable it.

Step 6: Go into the setting of Second Today and go to the Soft Keys Tab. From here enter the title to whatever you want eg second today or today. chose the left or right soft key and select second today and then click apply to registry. now do the same but select manilla 3d. Now choose the other soft key and enter a title eg SPB. then click the 3 dots and go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SPB Mobile Shell and select [Toggle SPB Mobile Shell]. and select Second today and then do the same for manilla 3D.

Step 7: Do another soft reset.

Now you should be able to switch between classic today and touchflo and classic today and mobile shell and touch flo and mobile shell. Now you have the best of all 3 worlds.
