As WDM already stated he is no longer supporting this ROM for the time being and has moved on to other projects - he may or may not assist with issues on this ROM

As for adding/editing things on the internet tab, here are the directions to do so yourself (this is the location, you will need to decide what to edit or remove yourself) :

Goto settings\today and unselect Touchflo, then with your fav regeditor...

HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila2d\InternetWidget\Customiz ed
The Key 0 holds the info for the Youtube Program, change it if you want or...
1. Change CustomizedCount to 2. (Keep incrementing for each item you place on the page.)
2. Add a new key "1" (2,3, etc for each item you add)
3. In Key 1,
.... add string "CustomizedIcon" value=\windows\Earth.bmp ( I used HH_INTERNET_EARTH.bmp and resized it to 22*23 pixels and named it Earth.bmp)
.... add string "CustomizedTitle" value= "Internet Explorer"
.... add string "CustomizedURL" value= \Windows\iexplore.exe
.... add DWORD "NoDescription" value= 1 (dec)

Exit regeditor and then go to settings and reselect Touchflo


if you want to open the internet with a different browser such as Skyfire, IE, MiniMO or whatever follow the directions here:

Good to hear, I'm almost positive I have the June release but will double check when I get home tonight. Theres no way I could go with garmin or tomtom after using iGo so I hope I can get this to work.

Also, I'm having another problem were touchflo times out (or quits?) after my phone comes back from stand by it says "tap screen to start touchflo" every time. It didnt do that with V1.5, any ideas anyone?

have heard of this issue with the timeout - go to SETTINGS>TODAY>ITEMS and uncheck the "today timeout"

The only other reason I could think of of Manila/Touchflo crashing or dropping out would be a memory issue like what was occuring with the audio mgr issue of a couple versions past but try that first and if it still occurs be more detailed as to what was the last item on screen, if music was running, etc and we can go from there to help correct the problem

having to understand one important item in this, Opera is hard-coded into Manila/Touchflo currently and cant be "removed" without breaking the UI right off the bat, BUT, there is a way to eliminate Opera yourself by fooling Manila/Touchflo into believing Opera is still there...

Step one - rename a COPY of IExplore.exe to OperaL.exe (will need a file manager total commander, resco file explorer, etc) to copy and paste elsewhere. (this also works with skyfire.exe or miniMO's executable)

Step 2 - Make sure you know what version of Opera is on your device or is with your custom ROM your using and download a copy of it to your storage card (or wherever) important its the same version or else youll end up with 2 icons and only 1 is functional

Step 3 - disable touchflo from SETTINGS>TODAY>ITEMS and then using your file manager of choice copy the OperaL.exe you made or downloaded from here to \windows

Step 4 - reintall Opera onto your storage card

Step 5 - go back into SETTINGS>TODAY>ITEMS and select Touchflo and close the settings pages and goto to your internet tab and test - IE should open up with Google.com as the default homepage

** if you are wanting to use skyfire or MiniMo then just rename the executables for those as you would for IE and follow the steps above and your all set

then after that you can then uninstall Opera completely as it will be listed in the "remove program settings", granted some files within \windows and the like will be orphaned but a good system tool can find those and clean those out reliably for you

Hello Everyone,

I have spring v1.5 and its great. Will try 1.6 but hate losing youtube. well see. One question I had was that it appears that data is always being transmitted and does not go to idle. Can you tell me if this is normal or if there is an application running in the background that I can eliminate. I have have closed all of the applciaitons via task mgr and cannot see what else to look for.

Thanks,

This seems to be a common concern - from all Ive read here and over on XDA, its seems to be a conflict with the dialer, no data is known to be transmitting anywhere it just shows the graphic as if it were

there has been a ROM or two with this corrected but the ROMS are not that good (at least for me) so I avoid them.

Thanks Detroit Doug for giving me the reg keys to remove XDA from the Internet widget. For thos of you Sprint FULL people, 1.6 has you tube in the prgram list, not on the IE widget although DD just explained how to put it back.....Youtube is silky smooth on sprint 1.6 FULL
