SwiftBL 7.5 unwanted tweaks

Hi there,
I've just managed to install a SwiftBL 7.5 ROM on my touch diamond. I've noticed that the font size in Contacts have now increased and when u 'swoosh' ur finger left or right on the TF3D interface (to go to the adjacent tab), there is no longer that slick animation.
Does anybody know how to make the font size in Contacts go back to the normal size (smaller)? And how would I turn back on that animation?
I do realise that the animation will slow everything down but I don't mind. With Contacts, the font size is too big so my contacts' number (displayed below their names) have '...' added to the end and so I cannot see their full phone numbers.
Many thanks in advance!

To change the font size, goto settings --> screen --> font, and adjust it there.
The lack of animation is inherent in all the new 1.93 ROMs, whether they be official or cooked. There's no getting them back unless you revert to the older original ROMs.

do a search.... i think i read somewhere in this forum that there's a little app that will re-instate the animation.

It works fine with mine SwiftBL 7.5 rom

Yes I think it's just a complete copy of all the manila files from a 1.37 ROM and then copied over the top of a 1.93 ROM. There may be slightly more too it than that though..
I do remember seeing a cab file for it somewhere... Yep... I think it is here: http://theloanranger.romraid.com/tlr-manila.cab

thx! but the install was unsuccessful (and took 2 years to finish! O_O)
I've managed to fix the font problem tho so...thank you!
I'll try install the TF3D config program and use the HTC black theme from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409901

so ok..installed the HTC black theme using TF3D..The side and background animation didn't come back but instead, I get fade in and out (background stays the same) but the TF3D bar at the bottom now animates.
Next I'll try this!

oh actually...i just realised that the tlr_manila installation probably failed because I didn't turn off TF3D before I ran the cab file -_-'' i'll give it a try later.....

ok that worked! I had to turn off TF3D first before running the tlr_manila.cab file.
Now does anybody know why ActiveSync keeps coming back in the task manager?! I close it and a few moments later, it's there again!!

As far as I'm aware, ActiveSync runs constantly whether it shows in any task manager or not... I may be wrong, but I think it needs to be running or it won't detect that you've just connected to your PC? I'm sure a more enlightened individual will correct me if I'm wrong

old manilla bug i think, though it is still present in the newer roms too i believe

How´s the animation working? No bugs? Does it stutter?

animation's great. The same as in the old manila basically
when I was using the T-Mobile rom (I'm using an MDA Compact IV), i don't remember seeing ActiveSync in the task manager list..of course except when I sync

Does using TF3D to change themes slow down the Fuze?

I recently saw this on Fuze Mobility. Since I have used TF3D I am wondering if I slowed my baby down.
"What’s really nice about this is that herg62123 only changed the Manilla Files and not the Manilla.exe files. What this means is that this will not slow down your Manilla TouchFlo 3D like what happens when you use TF3D and change themes."
Thanks,
Richard

have not had any issues. i had touch flo on my hermes, kaiser and rapheal with custom themes and have not had any issues. just images your changing mainly.

I have actually noticed a slow down in responsivenes when I applied a theme using TF3D, and I had to go back to the original (using the Restore Default button) and it still seems a bit slugish...
What other utility can be used to change the theme?

I think its that theme. If someone can remove the pause when switching tabs, then it'll look as quick as that ugly ATT version.

[Theme/Req]Can I have a normal black 14 tabs theme plz?

I've seen so many great theme on this forum and i wanted to try them all. However, I'm a very simple guy with a lot of expectation and I like the original black theme, but I want a full tabs theme.
I searched around, but found nothing except for GODZSON's 14 tabs theme... but no picture, so I can't really tell which to download.
So I was wondering if anyone seen a 14 or 15 tabs theme around... with the original black theme?

Cant you just use NATF's current Roms and then use TF3D Config to add/ remove tabs???

Thought of that, but I don't like the transparent background of the tabs... and most of the time, installing a new theme solves a lot of problems for me... beside there's only 10 tabs in v4.1

Here's the files to make any theme 14 tabs. Install the cab file will give you calendar, commMgr, and call history. I didn't make the cab, just passing it along. The other manila file has the edit for the sounds tab added to it. Just copy it into windows AFTER installing cab.

Transparent tab background can be fixed with the attached cab.

Unfortunatelly this has crashed my TF3D (MDA Vario IV)

Weather tab in TF3D crashes, help

hey everyone, awhile back I tried out the HD Manilla TF3D, and for installation it asked to remove a weather file, i think it was an XML but not sure. Anyways I didn't like the HD Manilla and went back to my moonlite skin for TF3D, but ever since then my weather tab on my TF3D crashes, as in I slide over to weather, it tries loading and all of the TF3D closes and reloads to home, so my weather tab is useless, and now a way of reloading my TF3D. I feel the removed weather file is causing the problem, but I dont know how to reload it, and I dont want to hard reset my phone, does anyone have the weather file im missing? thanks for any and all help
By the way I have a sprint touch pro running the stock 6.1 software, with the moonlite skin

You may need to temporarily disable TouchFlo (Settings -> Today) so that the files are "released" from use. Once disabled, have a look using File Explorer (Show All Files) in the following sub-folder structure:
My Device\Application Data\HTC\Databases
Rename any of the files in this folder (ex: xxxx<NameOfFile>).
Once renamed, enable TouchFlo and see if you're able to reach the Weather tab.
HTH,

You could try just loading the Weather TAB that I put together. It should fix it with the added benefit of having the 5 day forecast.
See my signature for link.

Try to use correct version of WeatherMaster. I have tried the old version of WM with Rhodium Manila and it "destroys" the files,necessary to use Weather,causing same problem you described. Then I use the Rhodium WM(new version) and it repairs everything.

Issues with fonts that are stock in 6.5 ROM

The Helvetica Fonts that are stock in the ROM file kill one of the programs that i use on a day to to day bases. The reason - that program (E-Sword) will NOT read a font file that has any #'s in it. Is there a way of clearing out just the fonts? I love how 6.5 runs!
Thanks for your input,

I think nue made a font pack or a small program to change your system default fonts. Search using the link in my sign.

What problems are you having? I use Pocket E-Sword frequently and have never had any problems. I have been using 6.5 ROM's for quite a while. Please let me know what you are experiencing and I will see if I can duplicate it. Take care!

The issue
E-Sword will seem to want to load up, then it will just stop loading and go back to the same screen that i was in. I discovered this problem when i first flashed my phone from the 6 to 6.1 (a while ago!!!!) and i came to the understanding that if the fonts in Windows/fonts had any numbers in either the file name, or in the font name, that E-Sword will not load up. I would use Total Commander to remove the extension of the font so that i could erase the font file. Then E-Sword will work. Well, now since i flashed to the 6.5, i noticed that the program would not load up. I searched, and found out that there is about 6 ttf fonts in Windows, and thus i tryed to remove the extesion, but since it is a ROM file, i was unsuccessful. I tryed three custom ROMS (I do build my own) and was unsuccessfull of getting rid of those fonts out of Windows. Well, that is the problem. Thanks for the input.
