I am not responsible for any damage that you may cause to your phone! Before flashing make sure your phone is
unlocked and you know how to flash.

A big thanks to Juicy & Calcu since these ROMs were built using their kitchens

-------------------------------------------------

PLEAS READ THE TOPAZ BUG LIST AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD. Even though there are several minor bugs, i feel that in its current state it IS usable for my day to day operations (just maybe not yours).

This ROM is not intended to be the fastest or the greatest.
My main objectives with the ROM are to provide a coherent user experience,
to provide a good base for you build on (I am only including the apps I believe are useful for everyone)
and to make it as stable as possible.
most of the work I have done to it is just skinning applications and the OS.

KNOWN ISSUES WITH TOPAZ MANILA!!!!
Facebook engine doesn't work
When in music library the last 2 songs are hidden
Cannot access clock settings by clicking on the clock on the homepage
If a favorite contact has multiple numbers, when you hit the icons below their picture it will call their first number listed (email and txt buttons do work)
When replying to a message through tf3d it will still save the message as "unread" till you select the message in the "all messages" option
When selecting a city in the weather tab the letters are scrunched up, but this doesn't affect usability
G-sensor in settings tab does nothing
"Remove" program tab softkey doesn't change. when you are done removing programs just hit remove again to stop it.
Various Landscape tabs may not be resized
There are probably some I have forgot...
If you don't like the glitches, don't use the topaz version!
These glitches CAN NOT be fixed till the released topaz manila is ported over!!

How to make it work:
Unzip the folder and extract it to the root of your internal storage (after you extract it the directory for the folder should be "Internal Storage\UC1"
Now open the folder up and place the SDConfig text document in the root of the internal storage.

Now after you flash or hard reset it should install the cabs you want.
Please note that if you install all the cabs or add more to the list it may take a while to run through the customization process, this is normal.
If you want to remove cabs just delete them from the folder and delete the entry in the sdconfig.txt.
Or if you want to add cabs just add them to the folder and add the appropriate entries in the sdconfig.txt
