Hi,
Since Hermes and Wizard, alongside general information and development & hacking, are starting TouchFLO topics I created this one.
Allthough much work has to be done, at least the TouchFLO theme is available for WM 6 users. Since we don't have that I wonder if it somehow can be made available for WM 5 users like us.

The only thing working on my BA is the .tsk file for the dark theme.
The today plugin won't work because it's made for wm6 using the wm6 sdk (duh!).
UPDATE:
I got the dialer and wireless/connection manager running on my BA!
The problem that I lost all sounds/mic on my device. The connmanager works and the phone make calls. But I can't hear anything and nobody can hear me. There is no beeps from the fone or anysound from programs. The solution I've found is hard-reset. I'll keep trying.
You can download the files from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225
The today plugin still not working.
Ok, the dialer works but smartdialing stops working after first call.
The problem with no sounds from the phone is with the connmanager. Do not install it unless you want your device to be totally silent.
I have installed both the Comm manager and dialer and I have no sound issues, all my sounds work fine!
same here, no problems with the sound.
I do have the smardial problem though.

Wisbar theme
Is there a black wm6 theme that will work with Wisbar 3?
I cant find one...
I will try the conn manager again (which version are you guys using?).
for the wm6 black theme for wisbar, I'm using this one: http://lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9264
touchflo ui will never be available in WM5, also it depends on the HTC touch touscreen driver, if simeone post a hacked one it will be available on the other wm6 devices, but for now no other than HTC Touch Has it. The theme and comm manager and smartdialing work just fine with my rom (slows the device a lot but work,you can not open the options of smart dialing), home today plugin is not compatible with WM5
everyone is crazy about htc touch, if you want it that bad just buy it
also not mentioned things in touch rom are the new windows live messenger (10.6.00.28.2700) and the new arcsoft mms 4.0.31.21) IA Zip(1.20.27526.0), Smart Dialing(2.5.27526.0), Sim Manager(6.13), Sim Access Profile, Adobe Reader LE, HTC Audio Manager, HTC Audio Today Plugin, (ported them all to wm5, and will include them in my next rom or as cabs). All of you are crazy about the gui stuff (which is not working well in wm5) but forget the important things
The today plugin would be nice but not really necessary. The comm manager have a better aparence and so the dialer.
My dialer displays the options for smart dialing but the problem is after I make or receive a call smart dialing will stop working so I need so softreset it.
As for the cube flip thing I'm not interest in it.
Basically I like the gray color scheme, the way comm manager looks and the dialer. The today plugin I got a mokup working with rltoday but it was too slow to change pages as it uses mortscript to replate the rltoday config file and reload the app.

I actually sold one of my BAs march 06 and got a wizard nib. You're missing out on a lot of sweet new items on wm6.. heres a shot of the htc touch in action

I will be looking forward your next release. What I'm saying about the touch ui it's just about the colors and visuals. If it's possible to change the colors from our current conn manager and have the dial pad like the touch one (bigger keypad) that would be nice.
As far buying the "touch" it's not a possibility right now ($) and the only reason I have the BA is because a friend gave it to me.

I know it is sort of GUI, but when Helmis WM6 ROM comes out (thanks so much Helmi), will it be possible to port the actual touchFLO interface where you dont need a stylus to read email and suchlike to the BA in WM6?
thanks,
hardingt0110
When that ROM comes out the possibilities will be the same as for other devices running WM6 so search other forum sections where available touch apps are discussed. As for the stylusless inbox control I believe the hardware upgrade would be required for its proper work.

I cant find anything usable in other threads, they're just speculating on whether the BIOCUBE will work. Can anyone provide a cab, or some other form of installing it (this is assuming we are using Helmi's WM6 BA ROM)?

there's quite a few actually
chk out the Lakeridgesoftware website in the forums they have a skins and themes section that has qwuite a few for free download, just make sure you get a QVGA version.
Also a quick google search for "4PDA.ru wisbar" will give you a russian site that has quite a few on there that aren't on the lakeridge site, and a efw that are. =)
enjoy

Yes, I dont actually care now cos helmi has made a wm6 rom for the ba, but thanks anyways!
sorry in advance... i'm new to this, i'm sure it's in the forum somewhere but i've looked everwhere but i can't find it. i'm looking for software that i can install in my phone that would make my homescreen look like this(pic below) without flashing my ROM. i had the same software for my 8525 when i had it but it got stolen.
anything like this would help. thanks!
looks like Manilla 2D or 3D
search for manila 2d cab

While Nandowong is correct, it is well known that actually using a rom with Manilla 2d cooked into is actually much more responsive. If you install the cab file it may act too laggy for your liking. I use 2D now from Laurentius26 Here and It is much faster than when i was experimenting with my own cooked ROM. There are things Chefs have done to optimize Manilla in a clean rom.
Just my advise, but I would back up your info and flash an actual M2D rom. There are a few to choose from and I am sure once you go to Manilla you will never again want to use any other home screen
Here is the link to the original Manilla 2D just in case you havent found it yet.

I have been using SecondToday in order to access my Today plugins in addition to using Rhodium Manila. Recently I discovered Manila Today Page, so I no longer need SecondToday for this. I would, however, like to use Rhodium Manila with the MTP, and somehow also use Titanium (also known as CHome), the standard Windows Mobile 6.5 interface.
I was able to do this previously using TFDetacher, however some functionality of Manila was lost (specifically, BT AVRCP). This solution would offer me the ability to use both interfaces as needed, without losing any functionality (hopefully). I have tried to simply add "Windows Default" as the only item in SecondToday, and, while it does show at startup, I can't get back to it after Manila starts (I have a video of this, but no way to post it).
Does anyone have any suggestions, or know of any other software I can use to accomplish this feat?
I would also like to know the answer to this..
I tried setting up secondToday this weekend with no luck..maybe this is a compatibility issue with wm6.5 and secondToday?

I haven't tried it much, but I pretty sure its compatibility issue between tf3d and windows default. Both of these plugins are designed to deactivate\override any other active plugin when they are chosen which doesn't make for good compatibility. I'm sure somewhere there is a way, just hasnt' been found yet that I know of.

Well, at least all my hopes and dreams aren't COMPLETELY crushed, lol.
At one point, I was actually able to use Rhodium Manila, CHome, standard Today, and SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 all at the same time. Actually, I could still do it, but I prefer the HTC Music Player (because I can use BT AVRCP w/it, and it won't become the focused window like WMP), though I like that WMP has a separate volume control.
Well, if there's a way, I'm sure someone will figure it out soon enough. It could even be me, who knows?
I have been trying to figure something like this out myself. I am currently running a stock 6.1, with MS 3.5. I had dcd's 2.27 ROM but was running into a couple problems, mainly DRM doesn't seem to like 6.5 ROMs and battery drain. While I was running 6.5, I never even ran TF3D, but instead just ran Titanium and MS 3.5. However, since I am back with 6.1, am back to running MS 3.5, and TF3d. My setup is running pretty smooth, great data connection and battery life, but I really miss Titanium. If anyone has a cab for it (just the main today screen part), or know of a way I could possibly get that to run that with 6.1, I would be more than willing to play around trying to get it all to work together.
EDIT: Oops, didn't see how old this thread was, sorry >.<
I LOVE the new Manila 2.5 i think its a step in the right direction but theres a problem.
The messaging application with it is riddled with bugs i am persistently having to soft-reset in order to sort it out. At the moment im working around problems by always creating a new SMS when i need to send them but its extremely awkward.
So heres the question, is it possible to cook a ROM with the standard WinMo messaging application instead of the new Manila 2.5 one?
Can i get a show of support and if its possible maybe we can see some/a Manila 2.5 ROM with standard WinMo messaging app.
P.S. If im cluttering up this forum and this should be somewhere else move it/lock it and tell me
I never tried it. But I think they might be dependent on each other.
I am by no means a chef and dont know much about that side of things but i would think it was possible.
If they are dependent on each other, then no. Unless we use a patched version of 2.5, but then the functionality wont be the same.
I do not think they need each other to work. HTC Message works well with no TF3D or TF3D2.1 so I am guessing arcsoft will work with 2.5
I have not had a chance to try it yet but it is on my list so I will soon.
There is already a solution for this ...
I use the Energy Rom Genesis with 2.5 Manila WM 6.5
After that I followed this little tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614&page=1
I SMS trough the WM SMS function, without using the HTC software for it...
Hello guy,
Which nice guy wants to help me to install on my XPERIA WM6.1 to 6.5 but very detailed.
Care roman ma ajuta sa trec de la 6.1 la 6.5.
Thx
ummmm
reading the stickies or the million other threads with the same title might help
A standard answer to this question from my side is here.
Not much related to the main question but:
I am still sticking with 6.1 because i like the HTC Manilla start menu replacement over Windows default programs menu, and with all 6.5 ROM's there is always the Win6.5 HoneyComb start menu.
is there any way to re-enable HTC manilla programs on WinMo6.5?
I am not really sure if I understand your question correctly...
Manila is the user i/f of HTC, not a part of WinMo.
For some older Manila versions, there exist cab files to install HTC apps on WinMo.
However, speed will be much faster if you flash a ROM with WinMo and Manila inside.
There are quite a few nice 6.5 ROMs with either Manila 2.1 or 2.5 - while you
might prefer 2.1 because this one usually has the program tab separate.
On the other hand, WinMo 6.1 ROMs still feel faster, imho, and the latest ones
do come with the latest Manila 2.1, too.
What i meant is the start menu (upper left windows icon) of the Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5, in the 6.1 Manilla can replace it with it's applications launcher, which is usually just a tab of manilla, while on WinMo 6.5 i found no roms that can replace it, WinMo6.5 will still have it's start menu programs launcher...
Well, ok then.
WinMo 6.5 does not have any start menu which is comparable to 6.1 - it is replaced by the honeycomb screen.
If you do not like Manila, but search a program launcher like the tab in Manila, you might try other apps for WinMo, such as PointUI.

It's the contrary, i like only Manilla and don't want windows's honeycomb, i want a way to let manilla replace the honeycomb as it did in winmo 6.1.

Well, that´s what all ROMs with Manila do.
Whatever you install, as long as it comes with Manila, no need to use WinMo
(at least in most cases).

Not all, the roms that have WinMo 6.1 and Manilla it can be done, the manilla will replace the standard start menu with it's programs tab, removing the tab from the tabs bar. While on roms with 6.5 (at least those up to 1 month ago) didn't do it, the start button opened the WinMo6.5 honey comb even with Manilla installed and working, the programs launcher is just a tab on Manilla....

Whatever you mean, mate.
Maybe it is just a misunderstanding here. Just keep searching what you need, and either you will find a ROM, or a registry tweak.
I think what he wants is for the WM6.5 start button to launch the Manila programs tab, and not the 6.5 honeycomb start menu.
McByte: older 6.1 TF3D ROMs (or some of the newer ones, depending on the chef) launch the default 6.1 Start Menu (like Windows 98/XP) when you click on the start button.
You can ask the chefs if the can integrate the Programs tab to the WM6.5 start button, but I don't think it's possible. That feature comes from the Manila it was ripped from (e.g. Rhodium/Topaz vs. TP2/Leo). HTC provided that feature since the default 6.1 start menu was not finger friendly. 6.5 start menu is, so they didn't bother putting that in.
