This is a Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D (Manila) on the Treo Pro

Example Theme: Diamond Blue


1. It is recommended to perform a Hard reset before we begin. Just to start with a clean slate and avoid any possible conflict with programs already installed on your pro

2. Install Real VGA (Thanks Ebag)
3.Install McCune_RealVGA_DialFix_v3 (Thanks McCune)

4.Install Manila 2D (Thanks koolcdj69)
5. Download & unzip Xml Files For HTC Camera.zip (Thanks koolcdj69)
  • a. Install the cab inside
  • b. Paste the xml files inside the Windows folder on your pro (Via Activesync)
6. Install/Change Themes
  • a. Download & unzip “Manila2d Treo Pro Themes.zip” (18 different themes, I forgot where I got this from, so I don’t know who to thank)
  • b. Copy files onto treo pro
  • c. In the programs folder open M2DC
  • d. press add, find the themes, Add the one you want, press ok
  • e. Look on the bottom, you will see Themes, Fonts, …Tabs ..etc. This is where you customize your home screen. Also, where you direct your internet program (i.e opera).
  • f. press apply theme
7. Download and unzip HTCHomeSettings.zip (Thanks again koolcdj69!!)
  • a. paste the HtcHomeSettings.XML file into your windows folder on your pro
  • b. Go back into M2DC and reapply theme
8. Install ArielBattery 2.1 (Thanks sunny127)
  • a. This is a readable battery icon. Tap the icon, then press the tools softkey, go to setup. Here you can move the position of the battery over your original battery. You can also change the colors to give it an OEM look.

I also want to thank brianlp518 for making the comprehensive list, it made this much easier.

Enjoy!

-------------
Update 8/16/09
Thanks to koolcdj69 and his hard work, he made a new HTCHomeSetting.xml file, this now allows you to have fully working TouchFLO 2D in 128dpi. So now RealVGA is not necessary if you want to use 128dpi.

Also if you want some "Luxury" apps, take a look at koolcdj69's thread over at treocentral.com

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
im impressed with this, though im having a few minor issues. first, with the use of RealVGA, ive lost my task manager drop down in the top right corner. second, when i move between screens with the slider, the right half of the screen sticks and still displays the previous section i was in. this can be temporarily fixed by pressing up or down, but only fixes it until i move to another screen.

ive tried using this in the original 128DPI and it works great except the softkey bar at the bottom gets in the way. i would prefer to use this resolution if we could find a way to eliminate or maybe reduce the size of the bottom bar.

oh, and is there a way to edit the cities for the weather? there r no cities listed newhere near me.

Overall great job :) *presses thanks button*

Try this: Install the Alabaster theme. Soft reset. Then go back to M2DC and install the theme you want. That should fix the right side of the theme sticking.

Im not sure why your task manager doesnt work, maybe you didnt install a file? or maybe not in the correct order?.... Mine works fine and i applied this theme to 2 other treo pro's and their task managers work too

Also, I dont know of any way to reduce or eliminate the softkey bar. Plus i use the softkeys often, so i really didnt want to eliminate it.. maybe reducing is an optional, but im no programmer. For the weather cities, i dont think there is any way to add a city that isnt already in the list, but i could be wrong..

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
I am having the same problem with the right 1/4 of the screen "sticking". I tried this fix. It doesn't fix the sticking. No matter what I do I can't get rid of it.

JuMpMaN6235 08-05-2009 10:47 AM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
so i just hard reset my phone and reinstalled everything.. and now my right 1/4th is "sticking" too lol.... im trying to figure out how to fix this

petrafan007 08-05-2009 10:56 AM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
yeah...honestly i love this feature...just annoying. i wonder if it's caused by realvga?

actually, i tried 128 dpi and it still does it. dang! what is causing this...

sumitvrma 08-05-2009 02:53 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
This is the problem that almost everyone is facing!!! Dear can you find a solution to this soon? BTW its awesome to see TF2D on this phone!!http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/u.../IMAGE_002.jpghttp://i636.photobucket.com/albums/u.../IMAGE_003.jpg

Hello,

I'm not a genius, but I have this problem solved copying all the files on the "Step Two" folder that is part of the multi part install solution posted on the xda-developer.com site. It seems that this folder contains one or several files that fixes the problem. I really didn't test all the files one by one, just copied all of them to the Windows folder and problem solved.

Please let me know if it worked for any of you.

Everytime I try and copy/overwrite the files from step two it says

"Cannon copy ______**: There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use"

**The name of the file or png I'm trying to copy.

Any ideas anyone?

estuardo 08-05-2009 06:26 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
I'm using Resco Explorer to copy the files to the Windows directory. I believe that either Resco or Total Commander can be used to copy the files.

Heres the fix:
1. Unzip HTCHomeSettings.zip and paste the HtcHomeSettings.XML file into your windows folder on your pro
2. Go into M2DC and reapply theme

FIXED!

estuardo 08-05-2009 09:33 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
Please, only use the HTCHomeSettings if you are not using RealVGA. If you are using RealVGA, you don't need to apply this files. If you are not using it, then you should use this file, as stated on the first post of this thread.

brandon311 08-05-2009 10:45 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
estuardo, I did what you said in the pm. It didn't work. I downloaded jumpmans htchomesetttings and it completely fixed the right side of the screen error. Everything seems to be working. I did follow all of the original steps in the OP including installed realvga.

petrafan007 08-06-2009 10:28 AM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
I can attest to the copying of the files in "STEP TWO" to the Windows folder USING RESCO EXPLORER (the only one that would work) corrected this issue. Please add this to the list! :)

estuardo 08-06-2009 01:57 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
brandon,

I followed the instructions posted on Treocentral.com for the Manila2D install instructions. There koolcd mentioned that you only have to onstall the HTC file if you are not running RealVGA at 96dpi.

http://discussion.treocentral.com/tr...d-one-cab.html

But if worked for you, I'm glad. It is good to know that it was a real solution for you.

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
edit-Got everything transferred over, but am still having the "sticking" issue.

estuardo 08-07-2009 01:53 PM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
Please take a look at these threads:

http://discussion.treocentral.com/tr...-treo-pro.html

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=182

Follow all the steps and downloads. If you read all the comments you will notice that almost everybody had it working on their phone.

Having Manila2D working on my Treo Pro has been a challenge, but I think is worth it.

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
Ahem,:) Koolcdj69 here, thank you JuMpMaN6235 for posting up my install method ( manila320square cab and htc camera).
Well, i think it would also be good if you posted up the luxury apps I had put up in my original thread at Treo Central, as those really come in handy and work nicely. (Big Task Manger, Audio Manager, Audio Booster,)

And addressing the problem everyone seems to have with the "screen sticking" part, i think that the problem has to do with the background image. I found if the background image does not fit your screen it tends to do this. So in that case i would suggest just copying and pasting a working background which i have done to fix that.

Also I will link back to my original thread for luxury apps and themes.
http://discussion.treocentral.com/tr...d-one-cab.html


Thank you for mirroring this at PPC Geeks. :violent2:
Also, a theme i made which works for me no doubt :).

To install just download the zip file, open M2DC, point ""add theme"" to wherever you saved the zip file and then apply theme.
This zip file does not have any HTC Home Settings included so it will work with RealVGA because it will not change your RealVGA HTC Home Settings and should work.

hi umm, i just installed the TouchFlo and it works great!! oh, and i was just wondering if theres anyway i can add personal cities to the weather icon besides the default.

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
I am curios as to what this app adds to the functionality of the phone or is it just a better looking them. I am using SPB right now and that seems pretty good. I am not flaming, just asking. I don't see any images here showing me the graphical improvements.

Widened up available themes for 320x320! Note- natively works with RealVGA, you will need HTC Home Settings if you are using at 128dpi.

More themes not made by me....Im like the only one porting the M2D themes to 320x320 :( hard to get them all done.

Koolcdj69.. in your post above you state" To install just download the zip file, open M2DC, point ""add theme"" to wherever you saved the zip file and then apply theme..."
I'm sorry but how exactly you install this "M2DC".. i think you referring to the "14. 2d.Manila.Engine-Beta-0.09.cab" which after I click on I only get tis bunch of files that I'm unable to open or transfer to my treo pro???

PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Many thaks for the hard work:)

koolcdj69 08-22-2009 11:48 AM

Re: Guide to Install TouchFLO 2D on the Treo Pro
 
When i said Open M2DC, i meant you install it on your Treo and then start the program.
Same with 14.2d engine beta, you have to transfer the CAB to your phone and then install it from there.

Not that I have found. I tried the US cities cab that conflipper and crew did, and the xml file but it didn't work. Hopefully koolcdj69 can incorporate it in his version.

Yeah, just go to the originalpost and follow the post to ''luxury apps'' and download audio manager.

Sorry I didn't include that in the single cab file.
