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...
Why did it suddenly disappear from all the ROMs?
Even Rota's has only photo and music rotation, AFAIK
Landscape on LEO manila 2.5 is not fully implemented by HTC, the cooks are unable to fix that. Only the photo and music tab supports it at the moment.
If you need landscape, there's a CAB for landscape SMS in Leo or go for a manila 2.1.
I'm sorry, but how many times have people been over this? HTC didn't implement landscape mode into Manila 2.5, except for Music and Photos tab. And even then, it ONLY works with phones that have a G-Sensor, so not the X1.

So it's an issue that came with the 2.5? I know I'm looking dumb but I want to fully understand this and I suppose there are others like me that are confused.
It was in 2.1 but not in 2.5? We should wait for HTC to do that?

As for G-Sensor, G-Spot should cover that but there still remain all the other tabs.
In the end, is patience the answer of my problems?
HTC ONLY does Manilla rotation for its keyboarded devices.... so until there is a release of Manilla for a Leo Pro, they'll be no oem rotation in the latest Leo builds of Manilla.
IMO, just another reason to ditch inefficient Manilla for either PointUI, or SPB

It's not an issue. It simply isn't supported. There isn't any need for it yet, as the HTC HD2 (Leo) doesn't have a slide out keyboard. So there is no need for a landscape home screen really. There is landscape support on the music and photo tabs, as some people may like to browse their photos and music that way.
When/if HTC decide to put Manila 2.5 on a Pro device with a keyboard, then we might see landscape mode for the other tabs. As of yet, there is nothing, and there will be nothing until HTC make it so.
It is not a bug, it is not an issue. HTC didn't make it yet, as the HD2 doesn't need it.
the interesting point is that I still can not find a ROM with manila 2.1 which has no bug .... because it's very important for me to be able to rotate the screen in manila ....
energy ROM has some bug with sms botton ... I've got really confused ....

Tell me about getting confused, there are several roms with 2.1 manila that has full support on landscape, if it didnt have, then the cook hsa done a error (unlikely) or its disabled by the cook (rather unlikely too)
But a bugfree rom will only be a reality in your dreams im afraid, cause there is no such thing. Not from us, or HTC nor SE..
I have not tested other chefs roms in here with manila 2.1, but mine sure do have landscape

Which ROM did you try?
I´ve had at least 3 which are stable - and if there is something you might perceive as a bug, it is often related to another application and/or setting I did or had to do myself.
There are quite a few Manila 2.1 based ROM´s today which you can try, with WinMo 6.1 or even 6.5 "underneath".
BTW, the worst ROM I ever had was the stock ROM. Shame on SE.

thanks for your answer ... yes I just found several ROMs with manila 2.1 and there is no problem with rotation ... but for example one of them use a lot of RAM (60%) , one of them has some problem with sms ...
for this reason I overlook manila 2.5 ... and I think energy ROM up to now is the best choice ...

thanks dude ... just could you plz introduce me these 3 ROMs ? right now I install energy ROM (21 Oct version) and I think it is the best ... although it doesn't have delivery choice ...
Any cook want to do this. The 2.5 is not working landscape mode and our tp2 has a keyboard for a reason. Please cheft cook one
I totally agree with you!
It annoys the crap out of me that landscape isn't working, I always have to turn back the device after sending a sms and it's annoying me like crazy!
I also request this now
It's a good idea!
Instead build rom with manila 2.5 for TP2, why not build rom with manila 2.1 icon with more beautiful, run better.
Hi, I wanted to know if there are *any* Sense 2.5 roms where the slide-out keyboard actually works? As in the screen automatically landscapes...When I flip out the keyboard from the home screen, All I get is a black screen, same thing goes when I slide out the keyboard from the messages tab. I am dying to use Sense 2.5 but I cannot if it isn't truly adaptive to the Rhodium. Also is there *anyway* to get the "People Tab" from Sense 2.5 to work on Manila 2.1? thanks...
Okay so from what I been told before and what has been said from the senior members developing the roms the we use now is that htc did not make 2.5 with landscape mode except for the music and pictures tab. 2.5 was not made for the tp2 but for the leo. Its been ported to our phones along with our roms. Read the description of the roms and they will tell you flat out if they are using 2.1 or 2.5
With that said the is a developer who has been working on a 2.5 landscape hack and it is functional. Now it is not perfect as he says but it does work.
Go to the applications section to check it out yourself.
It's been asked and answered many, many times. Manila 2.5/SenseUI does not support landscape. Rotastrain has very cleverly and time consumingly made it possible and certainly mostly functional by installing the cab in his thread here. It is definitely usable, but as SuperM1887 stated, it's not perfect. However, I believe we can expect updates.
Question has been asked and answered (and many times before).

Can anyone point me to the CAB that corrects the landscape issue for M2D? I found one posted by mbavarian but the link is dead. I'm running -shifu- WWE 6.1 ROM on my ATT Tilt. Nice ROM but when you end a program and return to the Today screen it returns to portrait mode even though the keyboard is slid out.
Thanks!!
I would be interested in this too-I was not aware that there was a "fix," as M2D was never designed to work in landscape unlike newer versions of TF3D that have it built in.
As stated it was never created to run in landscape mode. There are fixes but all the ones I have tried have been pointless. If you want a fully fledged and supported device for landscape mode, then run a stock rom.
There is a fix based on mbv's by shifu it's not a 100% fix as works via mort to create a action screen when keyboard opened, i'm mobile @ mo so cant give direct link but click my ROM in sig and work from back of thread as i linked it for users, to be honest if you like m2d then you get used to the nuance of landscape and work around it...
Ok, thanks guys! Will live with nuance of portrait mode. Love M2D home screen.
I still have the file. I believe this is what you are talking about. Its a bit slow to rotate but it does work.
Yes, that's it! Thanks!!
