Manila 2D installation and theme Installation

[ankitjain1983]

Hi all,

I own a polaris. however i am new to customizing the same. I need your guidance in Manila installation.

I downloaded the new iolite version but it doesnot have any cab file.
I then downloaded the elfin version and the installation was UNSUCCESSFUL because it says "the system doesnot have all the permissions".

I wish to to know step by step to install Manila 2d.
PS I have installed M2DC already and it needs manila 2d Setting file to run.

Please point to the CAB file and the installation process.

I would also really appreciate if you could please let me know on how to install Manila themes on Polaris.

Thanks
Ankit

HI,

To install the Iolite version and have full functionality, you need to unzip and install all the cabs other wise certain tabs wont function correctly.

The cabs take up a fair amount of space, so a very clean rom is advisable.

Wot might be better for you is to flash a ROM that has m2d cooked in, id advise trying the full version of 3LIT3 VI rom from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459826

Firstly though, please read the wiki from here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Polaris

There is a lot of good advise on here and describes what you need to do to sucessfully flash a cooked ROM.

Only do it when you have read a couple of time and understand what you are doing. THen download everything you need, from Hardspl, rom and radio if needed. Backup you contacts and emails using PIM Backups found on XDA.
Backup anything else you need, but bear in mind you cannot restore a backup from one ROM to another.

Follow the advise given and you should have a hassle free flash:D

Good luck and enjoy your new freedom.

ps the ROM i mentioned above is very good and i cant find any problems with it.
