TouchFlo: No more horizontal scrolling

I just flashed my T-Mobile MDA Compact IV with the original Dutch HTC ROM. Everything is working perfectly except for one thing: I no longer have horizontal scrolling in TouchFlo. I mean, if I want to go from the clock to contacts, and I swipe my finger horizontally, it moves to contacts instantly instead of scrolling.
I already tried to disable/enable scrolling using Advanced Config, but that didn't help. Am I missing a settings somewhere?

This feature was removed with the change to 1.93.x.x Roms to speed things up in the interface. Trading off Eye Candy vs Speed. You cannot get it back short of switching to and older Rom like 1.37.x.x which was the vintage my unit shipped with.

(First of all, thank you for your answer.)
Too bad. Where can I find what the differences are between 1.93.x.x and 1.37.x.x?

if you cant live without those animations i suggest Swtos new 0.98 ROM with Touch FLO 3D 1.0. its fast as hell too!

It's not that I can't live without it, it's just that I really liked it... Weird though that they didn't make switching it back on an option.

Look into this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421434
You can install tlr-manila.cab to enable it.

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I had tried that already but not only will that give me back the scrolling effects, but the slowness as well.

I have horizontal scrolling with SwiftBL v6 1.93 ROM.
EDIT: Oh, you mean the animated horizontal scrolling, yeh thats gone but it feels faster without it.

this is really funny...
i've upgraded to rom ver 1.93 since day one of launch and still have the horizontal scrolling between tabs in manila....
been reading so many threads about the disabled scrolling, really wonder why...
even my wife's TD retained the scrolling effect after upgrade
and i've not tweaked both TDs after the rom upgrading

I hope HTC'll make an option available to enable/disable graphic effects in a next room (it'd be the same thing Sony Ericsson did with P900 to speed up the symbian OS).
Yes, It' true, now it's much faster, but I loved those stupid effects ...
---
Wait. I still can move through the screens sliding the tab with my thumb, but I neither have sliding effect nor fade effect for blocks background. This is what I call "graphic effects".
Zippy1970, your problem is you can't move through the screens sliding the tab with your thumb, isn't it?

well
Since i have my Diamond i Flashed Swift's 6.0 ROM and the TouchFLO Side scrolling is still there and the ROM is FAAAST

Screen seems off....
But very very very nice concept, when will you be releasing kitchen/ROM?

The resolution choice works on the ui. But struggles with some of the installed apps.
Forgive me if i'm wrong but the top power button no longer turns the phone off?

Nice! A lot of space on the screen. A very nice concept release, real snappy!

not having an x1, have you gone real-vga?

1\it's cool, finally for someone manage to control windows' layout
2\it will be good to make fonts in title bar, bottom bar 130% larger, and 150% lager in system. it will also be good to make layout 120% larger both in title and bottom bars. and icons in start menu seems to be quite big, is it has something to do with the contrast to the surroundings? some sort of layouts seems to be forced controlled its resolution, and it became quite smaller than usual, eg: welcome settings.
3\rom is really fast, and quite amazing smooth in both today and start menu scrolling.
4\making phone call is available, but i think this rom is just a demostration of the new layout. it should be tweaked in further developing since it's too small for x1's small screen. any way, it's cool.

bet ur missing ur x1 now!!!!
sorry for spaming but i couldn help it

it is nice, if this stuff goes into a kitchen i think some very nice roms would come from it. this is what i see:
wm6.5 (only, no SE or other companies stuff)
hi res (looks nice but makes text too small)
very fast (but this may be because there is no other stuff added)
some bugs (bits missing, link turning the phone off, link to hardware keys etc)
but overall a nice concept and i think u should but a kitchen up with the bones of this concept and the the chefs do what they do best, cook something special up

in all honesty if it is realvga it could be done quickly and easily with a cab..
96 or 128 jerpelea?
spot the athena owner
I did try it when I got my x1 (as have a couple of others if I remember well), 96 was too small for me. 128 was workable but not all the resources were there.. I'm guessing that they are all there in the new SDK. After all that's where the original idea came from many many moons ago... lol

WM 6.5 new UI improvements

Seems that 21925 is way more recent than 23004. What about 23007? Does the latest build 23007 also have those UI improvements?

No it does not, only the 219XX releases have them.

Yes, it does have some of them.
Sweep your finger over the wm tabs (like you do for manilla) and WM will react on it by changing the tab.
Tried with 23007

That's worked with every 6.5 build for months...

Lol the 219 blah blah ones look completely different. the tabs have a little part up the top that have arrows for left and right. The 23*** ones do not have this, they still maintain the old school **** tabs, they have implemented the swipe thing but still sucks. This new 219**method looks MUCH better!

Landscape in Manila 2.5 all Tabs

Hello,
is the Landscape Prop in TF3D 2.5 fixed..? And is a working version here available ?
Thanks

Why should something being fixed as long as it's not broken?
The HTC Leo has no landscape mode because it has no keyboard, that is.
All that could be done would be a workaround to switch to the "old" 2.1 landscape or simply show a quickmenu to select an application to open, but I guess that would be slow because it has to implemented as add-on because it's not part of TF3D2.5.
By the way, why do you mind? All apps, EMail and SMS work in landscape and the TF3D surface is hard to use in landscape anyway.
The main problem with TF3D2.5 is that it is still slow (Messaging, Music Library). Maybe it won't get any faster on TP2 because the Leo has a faster CPU.

RE
Now i understand the Prop, thanks a lot......still waiting for the official release by HTC, it can't be so long....
Have a nice WE

I have attached a cab file to replace the slider icons with "Leo-like" ones, many thanks to At0mAng!

The volume control popup when playing music is different from the main volume control app and controls the volume in finer increments via the volkeys, no need to touch the screen
System volume is the default instead of Ring volume when you disable single volume mode.
Replaced New Contact Card application and ringtone plugin
Replaced media toolkit version - fixed contact and background image browsing and selection
Disable clock flip: Here is a thread where you can get a cab for disabling the clock flip. Apparently it reduces the memory usage of manila, too. Seems to work for both versions of manila: [MOD] Disable 01:02 clock flip in Manila 2.1 and 2.5

"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:0
Disable touch screen vibrate in manila and EZInput (Rhodium ROM):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\KeyState]
"UseService"=dword:00000000
Will be adding some others after testing......

Reserved
Medium Version 2.3 bugs / problems:
1. Footprints tab can only be used for viewing footprints, not adding them.
2. Sunny animation on weather background on today screen runs slowly. Fix attached to this post.. tested and working! I will be cooking this into the next version.
NOTE: If you install a taskbar icon cab make sure it is compatible with the new versions of manila 2.5 or the volume app graphics on the music tab will be replaced with a grey bar on the left of the screen when adjusting volume.
Rhodium Version 1.1 bugs / problems:
1. While typing an SMS using WM default, pressing 'X' causes Showcase to appear and then disappear again, so it can't be used for switching / closing apps while typing a text message. Not sure what is causing this. Doesn't seem to happen in manila SMS app (Showcase displays correctly after a short pause).
2. Suggestions is missing from text input options for EZInput. A possible solution is to remove EZInput, since the default keyboard settings in WM works.

Other notes:
Battery usage is still good. About 15-20% per day depending on usage. Weather animations seem okay, pretty smooth once ROM has "settled", although the sunny animation runs slowly. Memory usage is still good, too.
Thanks to: Outie, Smaberg, Ervius, Bepe, jerpelea, Agent_47, Rotastrain, MrRusch and possibly some I have forgotten. This ROM would definitely not exist without your work, help and inspiration.

gonna try it as soon as dl will be available

Good news!
I think I have solved the music glitch! Haven't spent a lot of time testing it, but didn't experience a single glitch in 20 minutes of listening. Problem is now the volume adjuster when playing music doesn't display correctly, but it still works. I really want that to be fixed before I release it since I think is is a cool feature.
I could probably make a patch cab to install the fixed file, but that would require SDKCerts installed (since the hacked file is a system file), so I think I will cook it into the next version.

Ok... it's really fast... not as fast as TouchX10.5 but much faster then any with WM6.5 & Manilla 2.1/2.5 (as seen on benchmarks)
fast camera (without bugs)
eyecandy
...
some bugs (Manilla bugs):
-choosing avatar/photo for contact in People Tab: doesn't work touchscreen, only hardware pad
-after adding a contact to HomeTab (only one contact) it has been duplicated many times (for every empty rectangle)
- HTC messaging doesn't work in landscape... (I know that Manilla is from Leo... I know... ) so maybe HTC Messaging Tab (pressing on SMS) could be changed to simple WM Messaging, which works great...?
-noringer/vibrate mode in CommManager
-maybe it could be done that volumeUp gives one +1 to Volume, now pressing VolumeUp Hardware key shows only Volume Control
-after soft reset binded left hardware button (show <inputPanel>) looses it's BIND for <Today> action
anyway Awesome Work... Thanks !

I've just spent about 2 hours getting my software set up and making the settings to my liking... gotta say... WOW!! this is kinda quick!! Will know more for sure when I'm out and about using it for satnav & emails etc.
Great ROM so far, only thing I miss (and it's purely cosmetic) is the new style email tab with the page instead of the envelope.
Good work, thanks

Hey, nice rom!
One question, I noticed that there is kinetic scrolling in this Windows Mobile 6.1. How did you get that? It actually scrolls pretty smooth.

Just tried the mediafire version and you're right, it is corrupt... I am so sorry for the inconvenience / time taken to download / frustration!
Removing the links from my post. Will test the upload properly next time before posting.
@cichy3000:
1. Choosing a contact works with the touchscreen, but selecting the contact image requires the use of the joystick. The same for selecting a background image for manila... working on it (it's a strange issue since I have replaced the album app with one that works with the touchscreen and it works on photos tab). If you have already assigned an image to the contact it gets shown fine without having to select a new one.
2. I managed to get the same behaviour... I think it is related to the home page links not updating quickly enough / properly. Adding programs doesn't seem to do it, though, only contacts. Will try to find out why and hopefully find a fix.
3. I will post a cab file in the second post that you can use to disable the HTC messaging app.
4. In "Settings" - "Sound and Display" - "Ring Type" you can select vibrate and ring.
5. Looking into the volume issues. Will try to make it like you say. Trying to fix the display, too, so will try to make this change at the same time.
6. Not sure about the softkey binding issue. Will have to test it myself. If I recall correctly there was some issue like this in another ROM, but I think it was the right softkey being remapped... will research it.
@Tri3Dent: I mixed and matched a bunch of packages to get this ROM working and I think it is the TouchScroll package which enables it. Anyway, hope you like it
Thank you for your feedback about this ROM. I will try to keep improving it.

Mind sharing the TouchScroll package you are talking about?

some feedback...
1 - nice and fast
2 - would like to see opera as default on internet tab
3 - after typing, pressing keyboard icon at bottom doesn't minimise, it repeats the last character typed
4 - changing ringtone in contacts doesn't save changes. can select another tone but once done is pressed it still says no ringtone. default main tone is used instead.
5 - would this benefit from manila 2.5.1921 newest build? (only cos i like the email tab)
6 - it's a keeper for now cos it's the fastest 2.5 rom i've found. Nice work, thanks for sharing and developing.
