__________________________________________________ __________________________________________

Requirements and Compatibility:
Manila 2.5 on a WVGA or VGA device is required. The mod is not compatible with other larger Manila mods (like MaxManila). Smaller home tab mods (like transparency) and mods that don't affect the home tab are fine.
Manila subversion compatibility is as follows:

Compatible:
2.5.1920, 2.5.1921, 2.5.1922, 2.5.2011, 2.5.2012

NOT compatible:
Nothing for now.

To check your Manila version: go to the settings tab in Sense, select "About phone", and then "Software Information".
If you have any problems with this mod please report your full Manila version (e.g. 2.5.xxxxxxxx), the device and ROM you are using.
__________________________________________________ __________________________________________

Instructions:
Download the cab and run it on your device.
If you have a problem installing it, try turning off Sense (All Settings -> Today), installing the cab and then turning Sense back on.

In the edit layout view the home items are movable. If you tap and hold in place you will get a pop up menu. Two different menus are available: one over a selected item and another one when nothing is selected.
The max number of pages depends on the quick links layout: 3x3 gets a maximum of 6 pages, 4x4 gets 5, 4x5 4 and 5x5 is limited to 3.
__________________________________________________ __________________________________________

Important notes:

About battery drain:
There is an incompatibility with older versions of the .Net framework that can cause the battery to drain too quickly.
If you have this issue download the latest .Net version from here and install it on your device.
Even if you don't have the issue, it's always good to have the latest .Net version installed.
Big thanks to mike2nl for providing this solution, and to MichelDiamond for tracking the issue while I was away.

About exchange policies:
If you use exchange and have exchange policies applied to your device, this mod might not work for you. It depends on the type of policies which are enforced.
Some will not allow existing files to be replaced, which this mod requires. Others allow it and it will work.
You can try installing it - if it doesn't work it can be completely removed without a problem.
In case it doesn't work, your only option to get it working with your exchange policies is to flash a ROM with the mod cooked in.

About the CHT lockscreen:
At this stage the CHT locksreen has some shortcomings. It will be improved a lot in later versions.
If you find that the lockscreen does not work the way you would like it to - disable it, revert to the system default one and wait for the next version.
Please, you don't need to report bugs or request features related to the lock screen. I'm aware of it all and the improvements are coming.

-Because of the large variety of devices, some devices might not have all hardware keys locked using the CHT lockscreen. This is being worked on and will be improved in a later release.
-Rotating to landscape will unlock your device. This includes hardware rotation (via slide out keyboard) and g-sensor rotation (if you have it set to rotate manila automatically).
HTC's built in g-sensor auto-rotation is the exception - it will not unlock your device, but any third part auto-rotation app set to rotate manila will unlock it.
Better landscape handling will be added in a later version.
-Currently, the CHT lock screen does not support any PIN or password protected unlocking.
-Currently, when you press the lock button in the start menu the default WM lockscreen will be called and not the CHT lockscreen.
-The locksreen wallpaper is the same as your Sense wallpaper and can't be changed independently right now.
-If you are using the background for all tabs mod, and you only get a partial wallpaper on your lockscreen, download this new bg4all that's compatible.
-It might lock before the end of the call.

About Performance:
For HD2 users: It was made for the HD2 and it should run nice and slick on it. But I do recommend installing Chainfire's HD2/Leo 3D Driver Patch - it's great.
For non-HD2 users: Keep in mind that this was primarily made for the HD2 and it will be slower on other devices. To improve performance you have options to: reduce the animation level and reduce the number of quick links pages.
General tip for more speed (both for HD2 and non-HD2): Disable full screen Weather animations: Tap to add a new Quick Link and add the "Weather Animation On/Off Switch".
It will then appear as a shortcut in your quick links, and can be used to quickly enable/disable weather animations.

About ROM cooking:
Don't cook in the file "ManilaFull.xml". Originally it's a manila cache file that's generated on start up (based on the xml files in \windows\manilaxml\).
This file should never be cooked in because it will prevent changes to manila pages and menus.
The "ManilaFull.xml" in the cab is an empty file. It's only there to make manila regenerate it after install, because I've made changes to the home menu.
So make sure not to cook in that file in any form.

Frequently asked questions/problems:
Q: CHTEditor gives a version mismatch error.
A: Download and import this reg file. Then soft reset.
Q: HTC shortcuts have white icons
A: This can happen on some older manila versions. To resolve this, go to reg key HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\ and set IsShortcutEnabled to 0.
Next, with file explorer, go to \windows\start menu\programs and delete the white HTC icons. Then, download this zip and extract the shortcuts to \windows\start menu\programs.
Q: Date and Alarm are not transparent
A: Use this transparency mod.
Q: Will you mod the people tab?
A: No.
Q: Menu text has weird "IDS_" text.
A: You installed some mod that changed the language files (like "no calendar text" mod). Reinstall CHT to get normal text back.
Q: I'm missing full screen weather animation?
A: The sun rays animation for sunny was disable, because it can't be moved to follow the clock. To re-enable it, use CHTEditor and turn on the option under misc. settings.
Q: I'm using the retractable slider. Why is the weather animation cut off at the bottom?
A: This will be fixed in the next version.
Q: The wallpaper on the lock screen is cut off at the bottom.
A: If you are using bg4all, download this new version that is compatible with the lock screen.
Q: Why is the sun rays animation over the sun instead of under it?
A: Unfortunately this can't be helped and it's part of the reason why it's disabled by default.
The original clock was made of 4 separate cameras: background, left tabs, right tabs, weather. I consolidated this to a single camera which:
1) Allows for easy moving of the clock.
2) Gives a performance boost, because only 1 camera needs to animated and not 4.
A side-effect is that the sun rays now can't be slotted in between the sun and clock background. Only under everything (where it isn't visible at all) or over everything as it is now. It's a trade-off, but I thought the pros outweighed the con.
Q: I can't get landscape in sense, sms, email etc.
A: Check the reg entry at: HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ AutoRotation -> If it's 0, set it to 1.
Q: Is there going to be HVGA (HD mini) support?
A: I have no plans to support HVGA. It's a lot work to port everything to the new resolution, especially since I don't have a HVGA device to test it on. But if anyone wants to port it themselves, they are free to do so.

Know issues without workarounds - will be fixed in a later version:
- the second hand might freeze after waking up the phone

http://www.johnmolyneux.co.uk/_exter...ead_splash.png

Download v1.7.1.2 here
See below for a list of changes

Please read the first post before asking questions.

Please read post #2 before...
  • upgrading (either the editor OR Co0kie's Home Tab)
  • changing the editor language
  • posting issues
  • posting change requests
  • cooking the editor into a ROM.

Here is the CHTEditor, for editing the settings for Co0kieMonster's most excellent home tab mod. With this application you can modify all the settings for the mod without having to open a registry editor, as well as being able to export & import all your settings and quicklinks, in case you need to hard reset or flash a new ROM. Multiple settings files can be automatically linked in the start menu, so you can switch layouts without opening the editor. You can also add these shortcuts as quicklinks to switch layouts from the home tab itself.

This application DOES NOT make any changes to Sense. You must have Co0kie's Home Tab installed.

You can get Co0kie's Home Tab here.

MAKE SURE that you have the same version of the mod and the editor installed - you'll be told when starting the editor if you don't.
(It only has to be the first 3 numbers eg. v1.7.1.0 will work with v1.7.1.1)


This application requires .Net 3.5 to be installed on your device. You can download this for activesync installation here, or as a cab file here.

Some people seem to be having trouble installing .Net 3.5. If you are one of them, read this post and this post for 2 different suggestions.


The application has been tested thoroughly and found to be stable for WM6.5. There is an issue when automatically restarting manila in WM6.1, but you get a friendly error message telling you about it. If you get this message then you will need to restart manila manually.


A BIG thanks goes to eboelzner for the Sense Interface SDK UI controls. They've made a vast improvement to the application and he's been a great help getting the latest version looking the part.

You can find the Sense Interface SDK here.



I have to say a MASSIVE THANKS to henklbr for his help and patience whilst he tested many debug version of the app to fix the recent export issue that was introduced with v1.7.0.0. It's thankfully gone now, hence the release of v1.7.1.1. This release DOES NOT require an update to Co0kie's Home Tab, as long as that's v1.7.1.



Important notes
  • If in the future you upgrade Co0kie's Home Tab to a newer version, please read post #2 below.
  • This application can be installed to either the device or your storage card.
  • Finally, a lot of time goes into this application and this thread, so I'm sorry but I won't answer any questions that are answered in these first few posts. Any major issues will either be resolved as a new release, or will be mentioned at the top of the thread somewhere.

Features list:
  • Change the settings without a registry editor
  • Export and import settings and quicklinks (can also be done via command-line - see post 2)
  • Command-line support for export of settings (Importing already works with the settings file as "%1".)
  • Create shortcuts to settings files for on-the-fly quick changes from the start menu or quicklinks, without running the editor
  • Remove dead quicklinks
  • Automatically restarts manila or soft resets for immediate changes
  • Multi-language support

To be implemented in future releases:
  • Add the option to enter application paths as free text, so that parameters can be included
  • Add the ability to import and export different parts of your settings so you can mix them (quicklinks, home layout, lock layout etc..)

This is a work in progress and will continue to be developed in-line with Co0kieMonster's home tab mod, including any extra settings that are added along the way. With this in mind, it will only work with the correct verison of Co0kieMonster's mod, and if you try to run it against a different version then you'll be given an error telling you to check back here for a newer version of this application.


If you find any problems, please post and let me know, unless it's one of the above mentioned issues that I'm already planning on fixing.

Other than that, go enjoy your newly modded home tab http://forum.xda-developers.com/imag...lies/smile.gif



Here's a video of the mod and editor on pocketnow.com

Here's a write-up of the mod and editor on htcsoftware.org



Update 10-May-2010
Added multi-language support and import and export can now be done from command-line.


Update 19-Apr-2010
Fixed the export problem, so you can now export settings and create quicklinks for quick changes of your layouts.


Update 18-Apr-2010
A few options were added & removed from Co0kie's Home Tab, so the same options have been added/removed from the editor. Some logic has been put in place to make some of the controls context sensitive (you can't select too many pages for the different quicklink layouts, and you can't set a default page higher than the number of pages). I've also completely rewritten the import/export dialog, and have added the ability to run settings files directly, without opening the editor. This means you can have multiple layouts and switch between them by either running the settings files from a file explorer, running them from the start menu, or adding them as quicklinks.


Update 13-Apr-2010
The main changes have been in 2 parts. They have been driven by the big changes made to Co0kie's Home Tab, and I've switched the control set from the original Manila SDK controls to the new and improved Sense Interface SDK controls. There were also some minor bug-fixes and groundwork laid for future changes.


Update 04-Mar-2010

Fixed issues with exporting and importing settings and quicklinks and added support for new features in Co0kie's Home Tab v1.6. Exports from an earlier version will not be able to be imported into this version, but this will not be the case with later version of this application. I know it's a pain, and I'm sorry, but the problem has been resolved for future versions.


Update 21-Feb-2010
Fixed a problem where selecting an app from the application list did not assign it correctly.


Update 21-Feb-2010
I've added a folder treeview for exporting and importing settings, rather than saving them to the root of the storage card, which didn't always work.


Update 20-Feb-2010
I've changed the application picker for the alarm, calendar and call history applications.
It's now a list of everything in your start menu, rather than the standard .Net open file dialog, which is somewhat lacking.

I've also fixed the "Number of days to look ahead", which wasn't updating, despite the value being changed and stored succesfully.

BETA 2 can be found HERE!
Thank Cookie Monster, for his awesome work!;-)
It will only get better from here! More add-ons planned!
Anyone using this mod and having the ADD QUICK LINK menu all jumbled up in a single row,
I have attached the cab to correct that issue on Beta 2.
This will fix the grid view for adding links in Beta 2, since it was having problems on 2.5.2011. :)

Santod, thanks for the link and the cab for the fix. I am pleased so far with Cookie's cab. I have two questions. First, the background for the date and alarm is no longer clear, do you have a cab to remove the background for this line? Second, will your BG4ALL, or Superboy's cab work with this mod?

Santod, never mind my questions. I just reinstalled your No Calendar/Date cab and it is working fine. And I am going to try one of the BG4ALL cabs and see how it goes.

Re: cool video for 48links with sliding panels and more
 
I am mobile right now but I believe I have a b4all solution for this. When I return home and restore my Manila files, I will check it again and post if working well. I am currently working on a different project. You can use Hdwalls with this just fine, as well.

Thanks Santod, I will be waiting for your BG4ALL. I tried Superboy's and it does not work. I currently don't use HDwalls.

Does this work with your other mods (stealth launcher links, remove quick links background, etc...)?

I have a B4all that I made that should work with this and I cannot test it at the moment.
If you would like to be the guinea pig on this one, send me a PM and I'll link you my cab.

Try setting quick link mode to 5 across, for 75 total. It actually improves performance slightly, as it doesn't have to pull up the text info, for all the icons. HKCU > Software > HTC > Manila > Co0kie.QuicklinkMode > value = 2
See if that helps, or disable the weather animations.
0=16 links per page
1=20 links per page
2=25 links per page

War does work quite well with this mod.
Tested and proven. :thumbright:

Still smoother with 5 links, as I mentioned. :)

Yes sir! :mrgreen:

Santod, PM me the B4ALL and I will gladly be the guinea pig. I like the Cookie mod, but it is so slow. I'm going to try the newer version you posted and see how much faster it is. If I chose to disable weather animation, how do I make this happen? Also, do you have a mod to hide the alarm unless there is one scheduled?

santod 02-10-2010 05:29 PM

Re: cool video for 48links with sliding panels and more
 
The Homeservice.dll has been reoptimized for 2.5.2011, as the last one was based on 2.5.1922 .dll. You should find it a little smoother. It was made for HD2 afterall. I do believe I have something for alarm, will check when I get home. I will also PM the B4all.:)

Thanks Santod, that would be great. Yeah, us TP2 users need to be grateful to have these mods even come close to being useful. We just can't help ourselves we are just spoiled. lol!

Re: video for 48links with sliding panels and more
 
Santod, I just installed Cookie's newer cab and you are right it is snappier than the previous one. I'll be waiting for those two cabs. I have a question that may have been answered already. I noticed I cannot finger swipe from the home page without using the slider icons. Once I leave the home page I am able to swipe from tab to tab w/o using the slider icons. Is this the way the mod works?

santod 02-10-2010 08:20 PM

Re: video for 48links with sliding panels and more
 
Yes, to allow swiping quick links side to side. There are plans to enable both in the future.

Hey Santod, I just tried the 1.5 cab in this thread and my Manila (2.5.2011 in WAR) just gets stuck in a loop trying to load the home tab. Had to uninstall it. Is it possible I loaded the wrong version?

I thought I read it works on 2.5.2011....

Is this the same crashdau from the pdaphonehome site? The old i730 was still one of my favorite phones.
Now back to the question at hand. I am using the 1.5 cab on the newest war ROM with no problems. Try disabling sense, reinstalling the cab, and a soft reset.

santod 02-10-2010 09:49 PM

Re: video for 48links with sliding panels and more
 
I will post the patched version for anyone having this iissue when I get home.

Okay... I just cooked a ROM with cookie's latest "TEST" cab cooked in and it's just as fast as regular Sense 2.5.2011. Needless to say, if you want this mod to fly, ask your favorite chef to COOK it in!

For my users, I will be releasing ROMs with this mod today http://forum.xda-developers.com/imag...lies/smile.gif It's awesome and it's the way HTC should have made Sense in the first place...

I have all the same mods except #7, I'm using a different slider.
That shouldn't have any effect though.
