Zoom Bar on WM6.5 with manila - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

udK's Rom without Manilaand Tom's Rom did have a working zoom bar, but now udK's Rom WITH manila doesn't have the working zoom bar anymore. Apparently none of the Roms with WM6.5 and Manila does have a working zoom bar anymore? Did anybody find a solution yet on this?

Actually Shadowline's WM6.5 ROM with Manila works. Zoombar works in Album, aswell in Opera.. maybe he know's the solution.
I think it's just a registry tweak that we need to enable...

Must have looked over it: udK has got a fix for his WM6.5 rom with manila in the first post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524224
Don't know if this is working for other Roms too.

Actually..
Actually, it works in both my roms and in l3v5y's. What it is, is TouchFlo (the scrolling, not the plugin) isn't 6.5 ready, but is required for the zoom bar to work. But a edited biotouch.dll fixes that along with disabling touchflo.

In the official WM6.5 Topaz ROMs (2.01, 2.02 and whatever the next one will be) there is an updated biotouch.dll which provides only the ZoomBar, and not the finger scrolling. This means you lose fingerscrolling in applications that don't support the native WM6.5 scrolling, but you also lose all the weird bugs with TouchFlo messing things up...

nice that they are making changes to it. hope its not just another skin modification or something
Hi
Aleluya,
it is your time to put the Ok button
down, it's easier .....
Thank you for the info!
I don't like this new UI,top and bot bars are increased and for Manila this is not a good things,HTC Task Manager icon is covered from the clock,MS moved left softkey to the middle and this way home screen became ugly...
I try this 23022 on my HD but i moved back to 23017 in 5 minutes...I hope MS will complete the new UI with a better look,IMHO,now,this is not the right way.
Which ROM base on Build 23022? i want to try

I can agree with you that it is not the prettiest of changes, however the fact that they are changing the UI proves that they have finally realized that the UI looks crap
Go here...at the end of the first post, there are 2 TEST versions

Thanks for the ROM Miri
Is this build not stable yet? Why is it Test version?
Because of the graphic glitches. If you have time test it and you will see what's going to come

That looks nice OK button was always a big problem for me it's to small and it's too damn far away from the thumbs when you operate with one hand.It's not maybe the best solution but definetly an improvement I don't want to try it cause it's too early version but what happens to the task button? I see that the clock is there so it's removed ?
hey miri is it gonna be a non-manila v or we wait 4 a stable build coz this one seems nice alot visual changes
Nope, 23022 is not ready for daily usage, we have to wait a little more

23022 and Manilla 2.5
Miri - I am big user of your Manilla 2.5 ROMs. Please share when you think you will drop a 23022 build combined with Manilla 2.5. Keep up the good work!
Now the important problem is manila 2.5 is not stable! not the WM6.5 if you dont use manila, you can enjoy the new version of WM.
But I think microsoft is not creative. HTC had made the WM more easy-operative and better apparence.
So, it is not microsoft but HTC which should optimize their work.
i really hate Window 6.5 UI. Just look and see at the home screen the top and bottom bar are transparent but when u go into setting or sms for example they turn into black. It's really baadddddddddddd . That's the reason why i choose to stay with 6.1 rom until now

Absolutely right
I really like the new WM6.5 UI. It is a definite improvement from WM6.1, despite the fact that I don't really like a 100% Touch interface. I like using my stylus too but this is in WM6.5 not an issue.
What I don't like is Manila. How can I disable it completely? I am not talking about Touch Flo but about Manila. I want to have the original WM6.5 experience...
There are soime rom called super light here where u can get only 6.5 experience without manila. But as i talked above u should stay with 6.1 because u will get dissappointed with 6.5 right after u use it

if yo want to disable manila goto settings->today->items and uncheck "TouchFlo 3D"
if you want to get the original wm6.5 experience you have to enable titanium which is microsofts new "desktop". you can enable it under settings->today->items and tick "Windows default".
This is the merge of MD (maldives) and Com3.
There are definitely many issues with the number of changes made and many of the new UI updates have no real skinned assets.
However, there are some fixes in 23022 and the native 480x800 resources help (the themes included also have reg settings which need to be applied).
X button replacements like HTC TaskManager have some issues, as do the Notification managers and enlarge start menu services.
MS is in the progress of transitioning the notification UI to the confetti plus engine (the HW accelerated, XML/CPR driven engine that runs the start menu)
Knowing Miri, he will likely have a stable build up by the end of the weekend.

Large buttons on bottom bar

Hey everyone,
Just a quick question. I've tried several of the 6.5. build and some of them (PDAVIET v64 for example) have a large bar with the startbutton, close button etc.
I've searched the forums up and down but can't find a reference as to where I can find this. Is there a Cab for this ? Or is it embedded in certain builds ?
I've found several styling cabs (e.g. black buttons from shadow ) but no cab for the buttons themselves.
I prefer to use my current rom ( Dutty's leo r5 ) but I would love it even more with that bar.
Thanks,
Corwin
It is part of the new layout in WM 6.5.X if you want a rom with it on you can try Miris TEST2 rom

That bar bellongs to the Winmo 6.5 build and not from Manilla. You had that bar in PDAViet ROM because the 6.5 build had that bar.

Do Any TF3D2 (Manilla 2.5) Roms work in Landscape?

Ive been messing around, got one rom that works partially in landscape although glitches on a few imput fields.
The NRG roms seem most stable, but only the ones with original TF3D
Anyone have any thoughts on a good rom that I will be able to do the most with landscape wise? Basically just imput fields, texting, etc.
I swear to God if i see one more thread about this...... Manila 2.5 DOES NOT WORK IN LANDSCAPE. Its not the ROM its the Manila from HTC. The only screens that work is pictures and music.

How about for texting and web browsing? I would think those are separate then from the Manilla UI.
What about the ROMS that have SENSE UI? Is that just a "skin" or will the UI work in landscape with the similar feel of Manilla?
The Sense UI now extends to Manila 2.1 and those do have landscape. The 2.5 versions doesn't have landscape. The Sense UI that is related to manila is still manila and only works in landscape on 2.1. If you are referring to skins that modify pointui or spb mobile those are just skins. Texting outside of manila should have landscape and so should opera.

Ok thanks! I really like the weather clock and the way the email feels in manilla 2.5.
NRG Photon Rom has the Weather Clock
I have accepted the landscape problem with 2.5 since this version of manilla first emerged, but it has always puzzled me. My understanding is that 2.5 is basically for the HD2/Leo, right? So does this mean that the HD2 does not have landscape for manilla tabs (other than pics and music)?
In all the video reviews of the HD2 I have seen to date, none actually show the reviewer rotating the phone on the homescreen.
I have never cooked a ROM so perhaps this is a dumb question....but if any chefs can shed some light on why it does not work I would be grateful.
Thanks

yeah but its not the same as, the LEO for instance, where the cloiuds come from all over the screen, or the moonlight beams in from the corner of the device

The manila files and scripts just don't have that functionality. I do not think the LEO has landscape. Give it time.. Remember the original manila didn't really have a landscape either.

Im downloading Photon as we speak. If this works, ill be thrilled.. if only I could change the mail tab icon to the envelopes instead of the ugly mailbox and get the whole email view like on 2.5
If I do use a manilla 2.5 rom, is their landscape support in apps or when forming emails?
In photon there is an app called G-Config under Start Menu/Utilities. You can select what functions you want to autorotate there and problem solved.

awesome! Thanks man.
So essentially I can use photon with manilla 2.5 - and just turn on rotate for email/text/internet?
Only things that use manilla would be the email/text previews and the home screen right?
Yeah you can go with Leo and have the added features of 2.5 and just select what programs you want to rotate other than Manilla.
I still have a problem with text entry in facebook - The keyboard doesnt do anything but shake the screen in landscape mode
Can't help you there as I am one of the few people in the world with no facebook

Is that gyrator? It can be installed in any ROM!
Any yes Manila 2.5 does not work in landscape, and it has been discussed zilliion times....
This guy and his ROM (for SE Xperia) has landscape support for Manila 2.5 : http://htcpedia.com/rotastrains_manila2_5_landcape/soft/sony-x1-rom.html
Dont know how he did it, but it can be done. Ive seen nothing lie this for the Touch Pro 2.

X1 ROMs dialers in landscape

Hi guys,
is there any build, which has not the problem with dialer going portrait, when having first keyboard slided out (phone in landscape) and then starting to type contact name ?
I tried many ROMs with additional cabs of Rhodium dialer, with no luck. Usecase when I invoke dialer first and then slide the keyboard out works fine (if dialer supports it).
Because of this problem, I'm still using energyrom titanium build from 22th September, which has not this problem and landscape mode is working in every usecase.
Thanks for reply, I really want to know if I'm the only one in the world with this problem.
Prdie
Am I really the only one in the world with this problem ?
TOUCH_IT
HA! seeming that way..
i use itje's Touch-It Black Leo (BL) Landscape (LS), the 23518 build.
the dialer works perfectly for me in LS or Portrait. plus, its uber zippy, near flawless, and packed with all the new HTC stuff, including official HTC Landscape for Manila 2.5
anyways - try it, dont try - its my ten cents.
use Touch X 10.9.1
You're right, Touch X has not this problem, but I don'like WM 6.1 (I miss titanium). If I remember, Touch-It Black Leo has the problem (dialer is in landscape, but when I'm out of dialer in portrait, I slide the keyboard first and start typing, dialer is shown and it goes portrait).
Now I flashed jerpeleas X2 with same problem. I tried late Valkyrie, Xperio, Xperia 1.5 and several others, all with same problem.
EnergyROM in september was working fine (built on WM6.5)

Looking for a Landscape-only Rom with Sense

Hi,
since i never type anything in portrait and i liked how the landscape of manila 2.1 looked, i was always hoping for a full landscape-only rom with the sense gui. and by full i mean no portrait available... or at least only through third party tweaking programs
the autorotate for music and album in sense is just not made for our hardware. its so slow and laggy. and when it has finally finished rotating the scrolling is also no fun. i hope the chefs disable this in their future roms.
Does anyone know a rom like this or are there any cooks who would produce something like this??
thx
hdizzel

thanks

maxmanila is a whole theme... and i dont want it to rotate. it should be landscape by default.
anyway thanks for the hint. will try.
take a rom with a landscape capable manilla (if 2.5 just the latest are for all tabs) and deactivate the autorotate function.
could have found that by search function:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575557
also have a look here for the gdi value...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447290
as it cant be changen in "windows-settings -> system -> screen" anymore as i just noticed
and it should be fine...
but u will get the slow music and picture tab as manilla 2.5 is designes this way there is no other landscape for - otherwise take 2.1
actually with the new manilla 2.5.1922 the landscape tabs for music and pictures are different from the ones in previous 2.5 settings. They kinda look like the manilla 2.1 ones.
Yeah, I just started a post looking for a cab or reg edit to disable the rotation on the music, documents and photos tabs on the new manila 2.5 1922 too, those reg keys are not the same as in the new manila.
Maybe, this could help?
