After many different approaches, many different Threads and many hundreds of Posts, here is the definitive rollup thread with:

VGA Manila aka. HTC Sense 2.5

Current ported Manila Version: 2.5.19202525
Working in progress Version: 2.5.19211619


BIG THNKS TO: Akeo, amarullz, Captain Throwback, Kisja and all other contributors who made this possible!

Original Thread: [APP][VGA][14.NOV.09]NEW Manila 2.5.19202525.0 full VGA ported

This topic is only for chef's who want to cook Manila 2.5 in their roms!!!
To make cab's is impossible (at the moment), because there are too many different packages which are necessary for Manila 2.5 to work properly!!! (nearly the complete EXT part of the LEO ROM)



Main differences between Manila 2.1 and HTC Sense 2.5:
  • new Home tab with
    > weather forcast, location under the clock and animated weather background
    > quick-links (custom links to programs, contacts or other Manila features)
    > Animated Backgrounds
  • New People tab
    > All People now improved with better search, Facebook connection, Event view and Groups
  • Internet Tab now with Preview of the favorite sites
  • Pictures & Videos and Music Landscape view in fullscreen
  • Weather with "My Locations" using integrated GPS and Google Maps
  • much more powerful Footprints tab
  • Twitter Tab
  • integrated Date and Time pickers
  • All settings integrated in Manila (incl. Programs, Accounts, Sounds, SIP, Location, Memory, Date, Language/Locale)
    > never see native Windows Settings again!
  • Many other gui improvements

3D Drivers:
Manila 2.5 uses 3D features and needs 3D drivers. Most kitchens have them already included (OEM, or EXT), but for the best experience and performance you should use optimized drivers.

Youll find a good starting point here: 2D/3D Driver Development for MSM720X devices (by NeoS2007)

Manila 2.5 VGA How To Cook
This tutorial is based on Ervius Visual Kitchen.
Thanks lunacie for your help :)
Preparation & Downloads
Download the following packages in preparation for cooking Manila 2.5 VGA on your device:
  • Manila 2.5 WVGA Package (ORIGINAL)
  • Manila 2.5 VGA Package (PORTED)
  • EXT Packages

These files can be found on the second post on Page 1 >>

Note:
You can choose which ORIGINAL packages you want to cook (CFC or Non CFC)
Important: ORIGINAL WVGA version must match the PORTED VGA package version (i.e. both WVGA & VGA packages need to be either 1920 or 1921, do not mix the two)


File Placement in Kitchen
After you download and extract all 3 packages, you will have folders similar to this:

ORIGINAL WVGA Packages:
Code:
010_Manila_2_5_19XX_WVGA
 |
 +-- Manila_Calendar_XXX
 +-- Manila_Core_XXX
 +-- Manila_Home_XXXX
 +--...
 +--...

PORTED VGA Packages:
Code:
020_Manila_2_5_19XX_VGA
 |
 +-- Manila_Calendar_XXX_VGA
 +-- Manila_Core_XXX_VGA
 +-- Manila_Home_XXXX_VGA
 +--...
 +--...

EXT Packages
Code:
011_Manila_2_5_Requirements
 |
 +-- aGPS_Confirmation_1_0_19201925_01
 +-- Audio_Manager_Engine_2_0_19201927_h
 +-- Concurrence_Mgr_1_5_19191120_00
 +--...
 +--...

012_Manila_2_5_Optional
 |
 +--AppointmentEditor_1_0_19202410_0
 +--Audio_Booster_2_5_19194032_lo00
 +--BrowserSnapshot_1_0_19201131_00
 +--...
 +--...

Copy all folders into your visual kitchen as follows:
For Diamond:
Code:
\EXT\Diamond\Common

For Raphael:
Code:
\EXT\Raphael\Common

So you will have an EXT folder structure like this:
Code:
Kitchen
 +-- EXT
     +-- Diamond / Raphael
         +-- Common
             +-- ...
             +-- 010_Manila_2_5_19XX_WVGA
             +-- 011_Manila_2_5_Requirements
             +-- 012_Manila_2_5_Optional
             +-- 020_Manila_2_5_19XX_VGA
             +-- ..
             +-- ..
         +-- Shared
             +-- ..
 +-- MyTools
 +-- OEM
 +-- ..
 +-- ..

Why Numbered Directories (010_XX, 011_XX, 020_XX) ???
Ervius Visual Kitchen will read and process the EXT directories in alphabetical order, i.e. the '010' files will overwritten by identically named files in '011',
and '011' files will be overwritten identically named files in the '012' directory, and so on.

ORIGINAL WVGA packages contain all manila files, the PORTED VGA only contained ported files. By placing the ported packages later in the Kitchen directory structure, we will overwrite the WVGA files with the necessary VGA versions, while other files that are required will remain in tact for the build.

And For Tweaks Files?
You can create new package(s) group(s) with higher numbers than the PORTED VGA Package, for example: 030_Tweaks_Manila

Start Cooking
Execute Erviuskitchen.exe, and smell the success... ( other users with more competance can explain how to cook the ROM )

Update Your Manila without cooking
If you already cook and flash Manila 2.5 into your device, but want to test or update your Manila 2.5 with the latest files (without re-cooking and re-flashing your ROM), make sure you know about it:

Update package which contain XML File(s)
  • Make sure you delete \Windows\ManilaFull.xml in your device before you restarting the manila
  • Copy XML files into both \Windows and \Windows\ManilaXml

Update package which contain DLL File(s)
  • Make sure you disable the manila before you copy the files: Start->Settings->Today->Items->Uncheck HTC Sense
  • After it copyed, you can reenable the manila by Checking the HTC Sense

Manila Locker MOD by Kisja & amarullz

Modded Manila: This mod DOES NOT WORK with Max Manila, or other mods which change the home screen!

Version: RC 2.1

Changes RC 2.1:

  • better battery scaling (0>10>25>50>90)
  • helper app doesn't touch backlight settings if backlight changing is disabled
  • helper app code optimized
  • another force fullscreen fix
Changes RC 2:
  • Autolock on suspend
    - monitors system power state
    - locks if power button pressed
    - locks if system enters standby on timeout (power setting)
  • auto power off after timeout if locked (fixes idle timer reset by touch events)
  • unlock on incoming call (optional setting)
    -> if enabled: will full unlock on incoming call
    -> if disabled: dialer will be on top
    -->> dialer buttons can be used (eg. slide2answer or normal answer button)!
    -->> Only HW keys will be locked!
    -->> Backlight will be turned on, and after call it will be turned off again.
  • lock after call finished, if locked before the call started (optional setting)
  • allow appointments and alarms on top
  • turn on backlight on incoming call
  • force fullscreen if locked (bugfix)
  • optional setting to enable/disable vibration
  • optional setting to enable/disable background animation
  • Cab deletes ManilaFull.xml automatically (setup.dll by amarullz)
  • New language files (but missing 3 new options): 040c, 0410, 0419, 0804
  • other minor bugfixes

Complete Changelog since BETA3: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5161612&postcount=1120

Features:
  • Switches to Fullscreen on lock
  • Slie2Unlock (gfx by amarullz)
  • shows Time, Appointments
  • shows Notifications (missed calls, messages, mails)
  • shows battery sttus and signal strength
  • Autolock feature
  • Animated background on lock
  • nice transitions
  • vibration
  • locks keys, lowers backlight
  • unlocks on incoming call (optional)

Manual Install:
simply copy the files from the PACK folder to \Windows on your device.
UPDATE: and copy Settings_Pages.xml to "\Windows\ManilaXml" AND "\Windows"!
If you are using 12Quicklinks or BG4ALL, copy the files from the according folders aswell.
Delete \Windows\ManilaFull.xml and restart Manila, or the configuration screen won't work!
Do not forget to import the configuration reg.

CAB install:
If you are not using any mods for the home tab, you can use the cab instead of copying the files manually.
If you don't see the configuration menu item ("Settings" -> "Personalize" -> "Manila Locker"), then the setup failed to delete \Windows\ManilaFull.xml, delete it by hand and restart.

Configuration:
All settings can be changed under "Settings" -> "Personalize" -> "Manila Locker". Check out the app.reg to cook settings in.
NOTE FOR RC2: Susped timeout has to be configured with Home.lock.SuspendTimeout manually in reg! Default is 30 seconds after lock.

Known Problems:
If you have problems with Backlight, try the HTCUtil.dll hotfix from the Lumos Thread by nik3r (directlink to cab)

WM 280XX: this does not work on 280XX builds correctly, because the Manila window never gets fullscreen. So the windows top and buttom bars are even visible if locked. It has something to do with the repositioning of the manila windows to fit the 280XX layout.

TODO:
  • no autolock on AC (optional)
  • SuspendTimeout setting in settings page (dropdown box)
  • slide gesture for lock (instead of the lock in upper right corner)
  • WVGA version (work in progress)
Thanks go to:
Nik3r for help with backlight

Still Background Picture MOD by Kisja

Version: 1.1

Changes in 1.1:
  • fixed: wallpaper didn't change correctly
  • added: if "Picture Wallpaper" is selected, Manila asks if it should restore original Background. Custom Picture can be selected by tapping on "No". "Yes" reverts the BG back to the original black.

This mod adds a new "Home Wallpaper" mode "Picture Wallpaper".
It disables the weather animation, if selected, so only the custom background is visible.

The package contains a changed Home_Pages.xml, so you have to cook it in, or change \Windows\ManilaFull.xml directly on the device manually.

Well, now we only have Core and Calendar of version 1921, others remains 1920 and some even unchanged in the 1921 package btxakita posts(as he stated, only Calendar, Core, Home, Music and Twitter has been updated). So I suggest you should release packages in full version, like Manila_Calendar_VGA_1_0_19211621_0.

program tab

Sorry for posting this in here too but this can come in very handy if we could get it fully working


Here is the program tab from Sense 2.1
screen03uo.png


The way it works
To add a quicklink
1.press where you want the link
2. in programlist choose a program now you need to press back to add it

problems can't use quicklink 1 and 2 at the same time (will cause all next links to have white icons)
pressin all programs opens the list but can't run programs from there and pressing back will add selected program to last added quicklink

    Found a bug - maybe only in the German translation:

    In the Calendar. Editing an event result in a cutted word for the German expression for full day = 'Ganztägig'. It is not fully plotted.

    It wasn't Manila Interface, and we don't do translating.

    Here some different between Manila Interface and Not Manila Interface:

    Manila:
    • More Fluid - Use 3D engine.
    • There is no [OK] or [X] button on system menu.
    • Even you don't include Menu Enhancement you won't get any native WM Menu popup
    • Title bar text (Window title) always "Start"
    • Window Class Name always "Manila"
    • If you use WM6.5.X without positionfix/interceptor/showcasesuite, you will have empty area below the taskbar.
    • ummm... what again?? ;)

    Err... anyone want Album_3_2_20113120_0 ported to VGA? Normally my ports/patches go unnoticed... but if anyone want it, go ahead and download the ported files at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5588377&postcount=602.

    That is so untrue! You're always so helpful! Thanks once more! ;)
