not sure about the Messenger cab, but i'm sure you can find a version on this site!
Black Manila theme here:
You Tube app is missing and a CAB is needed desprately. Can anyone help?

So I guess you compact IV owners dont want the You Tube and Windows Live Messenger apps?

Applying Black Manilla works just fine. However start menu is still T Mobile white. Even beaming across the original HTC Black theme and choosing that makes no difference.
However Im looking for Windows Messenger (the latest CAB on this forum didnt work) and You Tube App.
hmm i thought the start menu was just part of the theme file...
skin
I want to thank the poster of the manila theme!
I was Looking for this theme, cause the T-mobile theme with the pink logo's was so girlish
Also for other installers, during the install every thing went fine till it restarted. I looked like the phone started correctly, i heard bleeping and it shaked, but the screen was gray with borders.
After that I thought I messed something up, and tried a soft reset, after that it worked like a charm!
ok after lots of atempts i think i have got my compact to a state where you could call it de-branded??
i have got the black manilla theme from the diamond which is allot better than the pink and white! i have got windows live with messenger installed and working nicely, and i have finally managed to get the youtube app on it aswell, so apart from that is there anything else which needs to be changed software wise??
anyone else had any success with this? i know i could just flash another rom but i really want to stay under warranty
Cheers guys
Care to Share...
How You did it... step by step.
Speaking of warranty, I’m in the same boat. I got no issues of changing the ROM as long as I can get back if I need to.
We really need a copy of the T-Mobile Stock ROM!
i would also be very interested in knowing which version of messenger you got to work and where you located it
I know i can flash a different rom but don't really want to until a copy of the original t-mobile rom is available, just in case i need to revert back for warranty purposes.
how i installed Windows Live Mobile...
Okay guys bare with me and let me know if you have any success with this.....
firstly for Windows Live Mobile, i have tried loads of different cabs to get this working, but this has seemed to work for me,
1) install "Windows Live install 1st.cab" then soft reset, once you reset you will have windows live installed but there will be no messenger this should be fine if you just want hotmail.
*****make sure you dont uninstall the 1st cab! they both need to be on at the same time to work!*****
2) install "Windows Live install 2nd.cab" and again soft reset, once you reset you will have all of windows live including messenger just as it is on the stock diamond rom same version im pretty sure!
Windows live is now good to go! over wifi it will sync flawlessly, over gprs/3g it will be hit and miss, as it has been on every other device with wm6, Windows live mobile and T-mobile, i always get my emails however it will sometimes show a sync error aswell. (let me know how you get on here because i have had this connection issue with my last couple of phones!)
i take no credit for any of these files, they are already on this forum and i thank the guys who uploaded them first time around!
Original TouchFLO....
To get the original colours back into touchFLO i used the theme which was posted earlier in this thread on the first page, this does take up about 9mb of space though! however looks far better than the pink and white!
to change the start menu picture go to Start>Settings>System>TouchFlo and de-select 'Enable Large Start menu' this will then give you what ever themes your using start menu, however it wont be as large!

How did you get the you tube app to work?
There is a youtube VGA cab on this forum, which installs - however whenever you attempt to play a video there is an error message
Finally Youtube!
this was the most annoying one!
okay to install this...
1) Install "AdobeFlashLite.cab" this may or may not be required? however i installed it and everything works fine! maybe someone could try with out this and see if it still works.
2) install "HTC YouTube install 1st.cab" this will install the youtube app however it is a qvga version and looks rough on the awesome vga screen and everything is all over the place, however still works fine.
3) unzip the contents of "HTCYouTubeVGA install 2nd.zip" to your \Windows\ directory ensuring the files do go into the windows directory and not into another folder inside the windows directory i.e \Windows\HTCYou... you will be promted if you want to overwrite some files, you have to overwrite all of the existing 200 or so files!
4) do a soft reset for luck and you will now have the full youtube app aswell! exactly the same as on the diamond, i cant remember if i had to create the shortcut to the youtube app myself or if the cab did it, if you have to do it yourself the application is called youtube.exe and is in the \Windows\ folder!
Again all of these files have already been uploaded by others elsewhere in the forum! i have just got them all together, so a big thankyou to all of those members!
let me know your results
Cheers
I also did change the "on-pink" in the connection manager, this was on a dutch t-mobile device but it will probally also work on uk-versions. Just put these 2 files in the windows map with total commander or some other file manager.
Another thing I did was a hard reset and just before the branding kicks in a soft reset. You'll get a pretty clean phone, only some programs aren't installed like tf3d. For tf3d I downloaded the black manila from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408843&highlight=boinger66+black. Opera is also not installed so I will also try to install this from the same thread and give it a go.
Also you can remove the t-mobile connection button on the tf3d interface by using removing globe.cab from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406681
Cheers to craigwn for the windows live messenger and youtube posts - all cabs installed straight away and with a soft reboot between each one, now both apps work great!
One small thing - I installed the youtube, wlm and then the manila theme and have just realised all my contacts have disappeared. Not sure which one of these have done it (or a combination) as I didn't check in between, but will just get them back via activesync so no problem.

i think this may have something to do with wlm, if you choose to sync contacts, it messes with the phones contacts aswell! just uncheck the option to sync contacts in the future.
Has anyone else had a problem using the new media xperia panel using itje's touch-it v5?
It installs fine for me but is not useable once I go into it...
Tried uninstalling it and re-installing, reseting etc...still doesnt properly work.

I had a similar problem. Installed the new panel manager and made sure ActiveX and Flash up to date and all problems went away. Try it and see if it works for you. I'm running V5.04
This has been solved
Go to the Xperia Panels Library for the fix

u could install the new panel manager. to reduce RAM usage delete string value of lauch500 in HKLM\init\
Ok, it appears you guys where spot on as it was the panel manager creating the problem.
New panel manager appears alot slicker, so all is good! BUT.
Where has my fish panel gone? I uninstalled it and re-installed it and it will not appear in my list. Is this a problem with the new panel manager?
btw, gtrab, nice work on taking the time to make an up-to-date panel thread, it will be one that I will be visiting frequently.
There's a new Fish Panel on the TouchIt 5 first page. It should work (did on mine).
If I install the new media panell, the other radio prog doesn`t go.
i have the same problem too, my radio n media xperience panel r not respondinbg at all... im tryin to install touch IT 5.05 n c will dat make any diff...
whatsucka:
Installing the panel manager and activex from gtrab's post in the apps forums fixed the media panel for me.
I will try downloading the different fish panel to see if it works for me.
I have the same problem wiht the media panel.
I have touch it 5.04 i installed the new panel manager the activex and still nothing.
install the new panel manager, then install the MXp
this works fine on v5.04 and 5.05
touchflo ain't working anymore i just get a message of 'tape here to launch touchflo' and if i tap it says luanching touchflo for about 5 sec and then it switches back to 'tap here to luanch touchflo'
i can still run htc home.
it happenend after installing a skin ''pcarvalho TF2D Digital Clock.cab''
even if i try to install a new skin with m2dc nothing happens.
so the question is how do i get touchflo to work again????
i fixed it already by just deleting the skin
Me also facing the almost same prob here..but after 'tap' about 5 sec touchflow theme come back alive..the problem is it happen everytime. it almost like every 2 hour once. FYI I'm using standard ROM provided HTC website..hehe..
I too had this problem recently. It happened when I installed my backup settings from M2DC after flashing a new ROM. The new ROM had a more up to date vertion of M2D in it, so I can only assume that is causing the issue.
It only happens when I try and restore an old settings file, not when I change icons etc - so does that mean it's the xml....?
I'm facing the same problem everything is completely fine until i restore my backup .. well i'm using the htc rom also that the htc home runs fine on it...
Hello Guys,
I am sitting bored and feel like testing the new panels on my X1. Here is my little "FAQ" - if you have questions, post them here and I shall answer.
Tile Panel
I want the new tilepanel
Easy. Get the TileWave CAB off 4shared, install it and enjoy. If you have R3A, you need no other CABs whatsoever.
I want to get rid of it
Uh-oh. Pressing the X Panel button wont do **** for you.
The only way to get rid of it once activated is to turn the device off and on again. Then, you will be back to the WinMo home screen.
What does the panel offer me?
I am dumb. How do I get it running

WRONG, the X2 panels were intended for the X2...not X1. And for that reason you also need to install the X2 panel manager to be able to exit out of the Tilewaves panel correctly.
Also you need the slideview patch to access the email and contacts correctly.
Read the threads before making a post like the one you created which contains false positives on your attempts of informing the public.

Tried Ethermind's 1 hour patch a few days ago but doesn't work for me. Thanks for the new patched DLL link and will try that one out tonight.
Facebook
Hi all, I've installed the X2 panel manager, works sweet. I've installed a working fish panel, Pixel City, Growing, Google etc etc... all working sweet as they should. However... and this is REALLY weird, I haven't EVER installed the "on the road" panel but my facebook one (tried X1 & X2 versions straight of SE's web) has got the On The Road graphic in panel manager. I've used TC to explore the panels folder and both portrait & landscape graphics are facebook....
Anyone else?

This has been discussed in other threads. Next please search the forums and read before posting questions.
On your device, go to Program Files/Panel Manger. Then delete all *.bmp.raw files. Reopen your panel manager and your panels will all have new updated pictures. You may have to reopen each panel for them to become updated.

I've tried this quite a few times now. It works just fine after the first soft reset but after another soft reset, the Facebook Panel shows the image of the On The Road Panel again. What am I missing here?

When u uses the tilewave panel and then the X panel key stops working like that mean that ure using the panel manager from the X1. Just install the Panel manager from the X2 then it'll work. I had the the same problem before.

Hello!
So I am having some problems with my X1. It is laggy and it freezes pretty often. Sometimes I have to remove the battery many times in a day becouse of freezing. And writing with hardware keyboard isn't very nice anymore becouse the letter are coming to screen with delay and sometimes it skips over some letters. Then I have also had some weird problems sometimes that when someone calls to me and I try to answer the phone it just disconnects the call. And phone has freezed couple of times on its own without I've done anything with it. Once it didn't wake me up in the morning becouse it had freezed during night. So I really can't trust this machine at the moment.
I did hard reset couple of months ago becouse I had some similar problems before. Now it is not so bad but still annoying. I am considering buying new phone but I like this one and if there is way to make it work it would be nice.
So I am using Windows Mobile 6.1 original version and I haven' done any modifications. Just using mobile shell panel and couple other software. So I would like to get my phone stable and reliable again.
they sound like all the problems i've had with a custom rom! this never happened to me on 6.1 :S did you ever flash any custom roms before then go back to 6.1?

No I've never used custom rom. Although I bought this phone used little bit over year ago so I can't know for sure if previous owner had tried out some custom rom. But I still doubt it. This phone was just couple of months old when I bought it.
You have any ideas how to get rid of these problems?
Have you tried reflashing your rom using SEUS? Another advice I can give you is to install a decent task manager that shows all running processes. Maybe there is some kind of software running in the background that destabilizes your phone. Check Windows\StartUp to see if your phone loads any additional programs during the boot sequence.

Thanks for your input altae!
I haven't tried reflashing rom. I have no idea how it works. So if you could give me some kind of clear step by step instructions or link. And does it remove all the saved data in the phone?
And I checked Windows/Startup folder and there are four items in there.
Paneldefault
panelmanager
Panolauncher
RunGNAgent
I am using Panoramic launchpad so the Panolauncher belongs to that program. Panoramic launchpad is quite nice program but I think it is little bit buggy. Should I remove it? But I don't hve idea what are the other programs. I've used xperiatweak to change the startup panel to the mobile shell so I think "Paneldefault" and "panelmanager" could refer that perhaps?
edit:And btw here is list of programs I've installed.
Panoramic Launchpad
Spb Mobile shell
Spb Keyboard
Resco explorer
Clifford's XperiaTweak
Resco photoviewer pro
CoreCodec CorePlayer
Burrotech Scan2PDF
Aidem Pocket Painter
Spb TV
Viksoe.dk Flite
DS-Info DiamondTV
Adisasta wmTorrent v3
PPCLINK HiCalc
+All the original X1 programs
Paneldefault belongs to Xperia Tweak. It loads the default panel you have set. Panelmanager is what it's called, the panelmanager Panolauncher could indeed be a reason for your problems. Why don't you delete the entry in the startup folder. You can still launch it manually. I don't know RunGNAgent.
To reflash your rom got to SE website and download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Software) from the support section. It explains step by step how to update. Post the results and we will see how to proceed.
Do a hard-reset or flash to one of the custom ROMs. Is it just me or does these things happen inevitably? Seems like the case for me. I hard-reset once every few months.
