◄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▌ brainmaster´s MANILA ROM's MULTI WWE-DEU-FRA-ITA-SPA Version 1.1 ▐ ▀ ▄ ▀ ►
Today I am releasing a Manila ROM's MULTI in 5 Languages (English, German, French, Italian, Spanish) and 5 Flavours (Manila, Manila Clean, Manila MaxSense, Manila GTX, Manila Sencity).
First some introduction words: This was a hard work. It took me many hours to cook this ROM's, flash ALL OF THEM, search for errors and fix them.
And as it always is - you will find some errors and bugs. This is normal. Please, have a patience. If something is not working, first read everything on the first page of this thread, maybe that bug is already reported (maybe there is also a solution), and THEN post the errors and bugs.
Good start for the beginners is this page created from our friend Sifaan - AcerS200.net. It's loaded with FAQ's and Guide's for flashing and also mentioning known issues and bugs.
I will update my ROM's regularly, but not to often. I am doing this in my free-time, or at the night when i should normally sleep.
My goal was to create MULTI Language ROM's with different Manila themes so that everyone who likes Manila find something for him.
Beside of that, I created a ROM's that are stable and tweaked so that you have speed, comfort and a good looking UI. Some of the Tabs are not integrated and some of the things that work good on HTC devices are not working on our Acer.
If you ask me, why is there no Document Browser Tab or Facebook Tab or other Tabs, for the beginning - there will be no additional Tab beside of this Standard Tabs: Messages, Calender, Mail, Twitter, Internet, People, Stocks, Photos and Videos, Music, Weather and Settings.
Why? Because you want a STABLE device, not a device loaded with newest stuff. The Standard stuff on my ROM's are tweaked and optimized for best stability and speed.
ALL of my Manila ROM's are CFC Compressed, so when you want to modify something - look always for the CFC Compressed files.
Now, enough of talking. Let's take a look on the first two ROM's: Manila and Manila Clean Edition.
Meet the Manila and Manila Clean Edition:
This ROM's are based on Manila 2.5.2019 with CFC Compression, and they have a standard Manila look without any modifications. So if you want a ROM that you can modify with your own Manila themes i recommend this ones. There is NO C0okie Home Tab installed and no other Manila themes.
Following is included in this ROM's:
Customization: Black Manila Theme combined with Manila Black Wallpaper and Dark Ninja Desire Taskbar, Black HERO WM Locksreen and Kachel Wallpapers.
Input: Every ROM has EzInput 2.1 with 5 Languages with working T9 MyWords engine AND Swype Keyboard - Swype Keyboard only in Language of installed ROM.
HTC Packages: YouTube (put it in the G-Sensor settings for landscape mode), Adobe Reader LE with Reflow Function, MS Live, MS Facebook, MP3 Trimmer, RSS Hub, JBlend (Engine for JAVA Applications), Google Maps.
Also included latest Acer Drivers with some Tweaks, Opera Mobile 10, Turbo 3D, HTC Sensor SDK, SDK OemCert, Mortscript, SRS WOW HD for Acer S200.
Custom stuff: Some Tools (PIM Backup, Notepad, RotateScreen), xTask Manager and a modified version of SmartLock for Acer NeoTouch, so when you push the Power button, the Device will be locked automatically with WM Lockscreen. If you don't like the WM Lockscreen, go to Start Menu > Settings > System > Smart Lock and uncheck the "Stand-by trigger lock screen" checkbox. You can now install S2U2 or something else.
Manila Clean Edition: is WITHOUT the HTC Packages, Opera Mobile, Alarm Sounds, and Custom stuff and without these Windows Packages: Alarmsounds, Entertainment, Remote Desktop Mobile, SkyMarket, Windows Live, Windows Live Messenger. Pure Windows with pure Manila.
This ROM is based on Manila 2.5.2019 with CFC Compression, and have a MaxSense UI.
MaxSense UI is fully customizable, you can put Widgets wherever you want on the 3 Home Screens. There are also Themes for MaxSense - look over here.
Normally, when you first start MaxSense, the Home Screen is empty because you have to place the widgets on the Home Screen, but I customized Home Screen so that it is not fully empty. The Taskbar is hidden by default - just tap on the Screen where the Taskbat normally should be and the Taskbar will show itself. You can customize screen by pushing the button in the down right corner and choose "Edit Widgets".
You can also backup and restore your MaxSense Homescreen from the Backup Menu.
HINT: If you have questions about MaxSense - I am not providing support for the MaxSense UI. So please, ask the questions about MaxSense in the MaxSense Thread! I am just providing you with Manila MaxSense ROM.

Customization: HTC Black Theme combined with HTC Sense Wallpaper and Aluke's Taskbar, Black HERO WM Locksreen and 5 MaxSense Wallpapers.

HTC Black Theme:
