Can program Shortcuts be removed from Manila 2.5 - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

i wanted to know if there is any way of removing the shortcuts from homepage of manila 2.5? or decreasing their no from 9 to 3? with some sort of registry setting or modified manila file...

Hi!
talking about this I wanna know how to raise the short cuts in Sense from only 3 to 8 (2x4) without loosing the clock or calender. Maybe the clock can be shrinked to realize that? 8 short cuts on home screen + 4 Sense Tabs should meet my needs. Is this possible via simple "reg edit" or maybe via simple tool? Looking forward for some replies...
Thanks much,
Future

@eloger it will be pretty good if you give the screen shot. I used already HTC Kaizer Home plugin, it is very cool mate
thnx for the collection...
Cool!

I found it here is some threads:
*Attached the actual Touch wait cursor
*Touch dialer (The one we used in the Ather ROM) (I think its also used on the touch!)
Enjoy!!!
Vibrating Phonepad
Guyz this was included in my Winodws Mobile 6 Rom..now im sharing it with u
Download the Attached CAB file to make ur PhonePAD vibrate when a number is inserted
This is the appearance HTC Home Plugin
I like most of the HTC plugin, but not the HUGE clock. Is there still no solution to shrink it down to make room for some more buttons or today items?
by the way, eloger, there are lots of solutions around to get more touchflo- and/or iPhone-like experiences, like:

There are more that I'm either not aware of or that I can not find at the moment, so please, if you know of similar programs, tell us in this thread.
There is free software namely HTC Home Cuztomizer, may be it can help to customize all appearance in HTC Home plugin. To change the style of clock is absolutely possible but I like big clock, so I don't try to make it into small size

Last time I looked into it, it was only possible to change the font, not the size of the clock
i ll check the registery..maybe it can be resized by it

how to use LARGE icons?

Hello -
I am loving my new Tilt! I am trying to go for a very simple, finger friendly interface and I'm hoping to figure out a way to use large icons on the today screen.
Does anyone know a way to increase the icon size on the today screen so that they are much larger? I am using SPB pocket plus and by only using one section I can skip the entire tabbed interface and just have a 3 or 4 big icons on the screen. The problems is just that I can't figure out how to make them bigger than the 'large' setting.
Does anyone have any ideas about this?
thanks!
check out the sticky with all the cabs in it:
Collection of the Latest Cabs for kaisers [updated 19.11.07]
In particular:
41 and 42 on the list, the HTC Large Start Menu and HTC large toolbar
Try other HTC software, most of it is designed for fingers and thumbs
Ok great, thank you! I think I'm going to flash the rom that ships with HTC and try out the HTC stuff. It's been fun flashing different versions - I'm definitely getting a good idea of what I'm looking for!
Those are definitely helpful thanks. I'm still looking for a way to have just 4 icons + one extra large phone icon on my today page. There seem to be quite a few ways to strip down the today page to just have icons (Pocket Pro seems best) but I can't find a way to have at least one of them be much bigger than the rest.

HTC sense 2.1 and HTC sense 2.5

So I am moving here from Raphael Section and I have a doubt that I could not clear by searching through Rhodium and Topaz forums.
What is the difference between Manila 2.1 and Manila 2.5 or as HTC wants us to call it, HTC sense 2.1 and HTC sense 2.5?
Is the home screen weather (the one with full screen clouds, snow etc.. on a full screen layer) available in both?
Thanks
I'd also like to know this as I've used 2.5 and not overly keen on all the changes.
yes, both have weather animation on the home screen. 2.5 has more detailed animation but is slower, 2.1 animation runs a lot smoother i found.
thank you
I will try 2.1 first.
I think 2.5 might become more optimized once HD2 matures.
Anyways, last few days of reading has landed me with following list.
1) 2.5 has widget themed home screen. i.e. clock, calendar, shortcuts are made to look like widgets. However, they are not as configurable as Hero or SPB shell.
2) 2.5 is social networking centric with support for twitter, facebook, footprint, youtube uploading, etc.. 2.1 has just facebook integration.
3) 2.5 has landscape support for audio, gallery tabs which has cover flow inspired from iphone
4) HTC says that sense 2.5 has deep roots in the ROM and is not just a today's screen plugin. I cannot confirm this in cooked ROMs as i haven't got my Pure yet. But this is what HTC said in one of the HD2 previews.
5) 2.5 is designed for 1GHz processor and thus might be too much for our 528 Mhz processors.
6) If you are not a twitter user and don't quite use your phone for playing songs, go for 2.1. It will always be more stable than 2.5 on our phones. HTC designs it with our phone in mind.
I might be wrong with this list.... and it won't be the first time
Thanks.
Yea I've tested some various builds before starting to cook my own and I like the 2.1 version. It feels like normal Manila but with the animated homescreen which is a nice touch. Manila is MUCH better on a WVGA phone vs the Raphael's VGA screen (too cramped).
My favorite build was Dutty's and had a nice simple black background. I like things simple.
Manila isn't bad, but I HATE how EVERY part of the screen is clickable and takes you to an app; especially the HUGE clock. I always end up launching apps I don't want. I guess Titanium is the same way but it has a tendency to scroll before actually clicking, so there are less app launches.
That plus it adds like 60mb to a rom (wtf).

ah thank you
I take the above stated, to ask if the 2.5 Manila have weather fullscreen animation with other background that the default one. I didn't found ANY possibility of having personalized background's with the weather fullscreen animation in 2.1 - at all. Anyway, I guess that is supported by the 2.5 Manila version.
Can someone confirm this, please.

Yes, with manila 2.5 you can choose between 2 options:
Weather Wallpaper
Animated Wallpaper
The weather wallpaper lets you choose any wallpaper and the animated weather will work with it, in the whole screeen, bealtifull but slows the Topaz to a crawl.
The animated wallpaper just do a kind of glow bottom to top, behind the clock and links of the first screen, with whatever picture you choose.
Thanks for that info.
That's what I need - weather wallpaper in 2.1 Manila.
I'm so desperate....
guys, thanks for the summary

edit: sorry didnt knwo you where finished
Mine....
Moved to second post...
the problem with customising it greatly is that its gonna be customised to the taste of the cook and this will really affect your potential audience. i think its best to stick with the neutral looking interface that comes with the devices and allow the user to customise themselves or atleast allow the user to be able to remove the customisations. personally, i prefer a ROM to look stock, but have under the hood customisations, like speed or say with opera for example, maybe increasing number of tabs, buffer size etc.
i install spb backup, nodata, make some registry edits (auto lock if wm6.5 is concerned and disabling gsensor in album as it slows it down), igo8, coreplayer, opera flash fix, google maps and then any games (bejewelled, spb quads, tower defense etc.)
good luck

[REQ] Disable Minute Flip in Sense 2.5

I used Cookie Home Tab 1.8 and in that there was an option do disable the minute flips of the Clock apart from the 1:02 clock flip . So the clock works like Android Sense UI absolutely No Flipping of clock... i would like for someone to share that as manila file or as cab file cause Slower and older devices could use that to get bit of extra performance and smoothness in their sense 2.5....
Thanks
i would appreciate this as well if someone could find that manila file.
