Hi Nullstring. I am pleased to see this Rom here. This kitchen is one of the fastest I've ever seen for the TP. I'll try the Rom as soon as it is available for download.

Appreciated so much! Thanks again!
I hope to test it very soon, too. Lately, the TP/Raphael ROMs aren't very updated or nobody seems to put something new, but you give it a shot.
One small request: I saw that you put Nitrogen 1.1 player in the ROM. Would you mind updating it to 1.2 (alpha5, I'm using it for more than 6 months and haven't got any bugs) @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222350&d=1251676524 ? It has hardkey shortcuts and maybe it's useful for somebody. I don't force you to change it, maybe you'll put it in the next release or when you think it is necessary.
Good luck developing your ROM!

Thanks for the encouragement! I've been using Nitrogen 1.1 for like a year and didn't bother updating . Shame on me.
Will surely update that soon!

uploading it from another source. Sorry about that one. You could try another browser to download the file.

Hi Nullstring,
Great ROM! Quick and stable.
I have a quick question. In Sense, how can I change the wallpaper to look like the one in your images? If I change the background, it only changes in the home screen.
Also, how do I access the menu that appears in your third screenshot?
Thanks!

Install C0okies Home Tab first then install CHTEditor so you can import my Default CHT Layout.
Let me know!
I did not include Cookie's Home Tab and CHTEditor because I want you guys to have a freedom of choice.
But always keep in mind, after installing Cookie's Home Tab, you will be noticing a slight change of Sense speed.
Hi Nullstring,
Good Work. I used the TASK 29 to flash and did some testing.
I have a little problem with the dialer: When I call several people, the dialer calls the right person but always shows the first one I dialed. Any Idea?
For now I use the manila dialer patch, disabled the HTC dialer and installed Ryon skin. This workes for me.

Twitter and FB and QLinks
You might want to unhide twitter page in the cu key and apply the login fix.
1 Jackos RHO_S2_00923_twittermlogin update.cab
2 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila - Manila://twitter.page.hidden=0
Updates and Events crashes manila:
You might want to enable Facebook in the CU key and copy FacebookSDK.DLL in windows.
1 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila - Facebook.Disable=0
Tip for removing quicks link on the home screen: If remove quick link option doesn't work, don't use this menu option.
Just tap and hold the link and move it away from his place or edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\X.
thanks nullspring...i'm gonna test it on my touch pro...
Hi Nullstring,
I found a touchinput issue, do you also have this?
Typing in MS Word works, but editing a location in an appointment (windows calendar) doesn't work like it should. I miss the spacebar input.
I When I change to the small keyboard to enter the space and switch back, the phone doesn't display any keyboard at all and complains about full memory. The only option is resetting the phone. Do you have any advise?
I copied and regged IME_Engine_Western_2_1_19171325_00 and IME_EzInput_Western_2_1_19171325_00 from another kitchen and It works for me. But I loose the small keyboard option.

Tried it. Works like a charm! It seem fast! It took me a while until I found out how use Task29. Anyway, is Task29 necessary before installing this ROM?
I have 2 downsides for this ROM: you don't have direct access to a Task Manager (some kind of button on the lower bar) and I can't figure out how to change the X Button properties (I want to close the programs when I tap or hardpress it).
LE: And how could I disable the standby big clock to flip those numbers?

This rom is a rebuild of the stock AT&T Fuze ROM. I have added some goodies and changed alot of the graphics thanks to many wonderful people here on XDA. Be sure to stop in and thank them if you like the ROM.

MANILA TF3D HAS BEEN REMOVED
PTT HAS BEEN REMOVED AND REMAPPED
VOLUME CONTROL HAS BEEN REMOVED
Download
RRE MINIMAL ON RAPIDSHARE
Want higher volume?
I incorporated a slight volume increase in the rom. If its still not loud enough for you then unzip the audiopara3.zip file and use total commander or resco to copy this file into windows folder overwriting the old one. It will drastically increase volume. You will not be able to turn your device clear up
I am not responsible if you play your device too loud.
If you decide you dont like it just delete it and your device will revert to the old one.
The original file was created by Jscepi2005 I just edited a few things
ADD SCROLLING IN MOST APPS VIA SMART TOUCH SCROLL WHEEL
Install the rre scroll cab below. After installation you MUST POWER OFF AND BACK ON.
Do not reset. Hold the power button and power off.
After restart install diamond tweak. Open diamond tweak and turn on any programs that scrolling is not enabled in. Reset
Once you restart you can now scroll in most apps with the scroll wheel.
Diamond tweak will also let you change some options that advanced config will not
Thanks so much aruppenthal!!! As a huge fan of your Kaiser ROMs who is getting his Fuze today this will be my first flash!
Thanks I aprreciate it. So far for me this has been very stable. Please let me know how you like it. Once I get some feedback I will start working on the next version.
Very nice work. As a cook myself, I can appreciate all the effort that went into this ROM to make it look as polished as it is. A few initial impressions...
1. It's VERY quick. I've been running ROMeOS and this is way quicker...
2. Love the colorful icons in the topbar
3. Don't love the humongous fonts
Other than that it's AWESOME !!!

1. Thanks! I havent applied any speed tweaks yet I will do that in the next version. It should only get faster.
2. That was Massies work. He was just kind enough to let me borrow it for my rom.
3. The fonts can be turned off in advanced config. Change the setting to normal for menus. I will adjust this in the next version when I add a custom advanced config xml to run in customization.
The stuff mentioned in PM:
The weather database in french will be fixed in the next version. I found that VERY annoying as well lol. I just created a new country in english, exited, went back in and created a custom city. It then worked fine.
I had no issues with customization hanging or with starting in airplane mode. I will look into it though.
I also noted the opera start screen with no logo. I want to change versions but I also want it to work with flash 3.1. I plan to update this in the next version.
The PTT button actually does start PTT still. The dialer has a dependancy on PTT so until I figure out how to remove it and not break the dialer I have to leave it in the rom. I am hoping NATF will share his secret on how he removed it.
this rom is awesome
i think this is the best fuze rom i have used.

In the Weather tab I could not find the United States. I was looking for New York City and other U.S. locations. Thanks. It also appears as though the list of the countries is not in English.
The Diamond Dialer Skin CAB, for the Fuze, is the link right under the pictures right? the one that says "Dialer Beta with contacts fix" ???
Also, what do u mean by "It also should be completely uninstallable." Are u saying that i CAN NOT uninstall it?
And, can i add the Dialer without flashing ur Rom?
Memory
What's the memory on this ROM? It seems very promising.

This ROM is loaded with stuff, but incredibly responsive. I like I like
FM Radio.
I'm getting an error when trying to open the FM Radio.

It should work on any rom and It should uninstall. In rare instances some cabs have issues. If so its 25 files that could easily be removed by hand.

Almost all of the junk has been removed from the rom. I will lighten it up a bit more in the next version.

UPDATE : DEVELOPMENT STOPPED : I'm not working on this ROM anymore. This is quiet stable version so feel free to try it out. But please don't contact me, unless its an emergency.
Hey Guys!
Wait is over. Here is another nice ROM for everybody to enjoy. This time, its with Manilla 2D and as with my previous ROMs, its fully loaded and everythings working the way it should be. Its a no nonsense, no compromise ROM. I've tested it quiet thoroughly for last 3 days and found it quiet stable and speedy.
I give it the name BlackMetal. The name is inspired by the design of ROM.
Here are the details of it:
ROM's base operating system version is CE OS 5.2.1622 (Build 20270.1.3.1)
Free Memory at Startup : 23.11 MB initially, After normal use for 5-10 mins : 20.10 MB
Free User Space : 44.29 MB
Page Pool : 5 MB
I have created it with my own ported XIP from WM 6 Original Rom for P3400i using Ramerson's Kitchen (my favourite) for GENE.
Here are some screen shots from the ROM:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

1. SMS/MMS Account Missing on First Boot.. [Wokaround Available]

Credits
- Many Many thanks to Ramerson for his great work.
- Thanks to Ankit360 who really started the work on this ROM, made it available for new gene for the first time and gave me the direction to work in.
- I would also like to thank Om-By for his fabulous page pool changer that i use with every rom that i create.
If you like my work and feel that its worth some money, please donate to me, whatever amount you like at
Enjoy!
Problem Resolutions:
------------------------
1. SMS/ MMS Account missing on first boot!!!
Solution: It happens for some strange reasons that i haven't been able to find but there is a quick workaround for it.
1. Open Messaging, and close it without doing anything.
2. Go to the Messaging tab of Manilla 2D and Press either the Create New SMS button or select New from the menu.
3. A new sms window will come at this time. Cancel the Message. SMS and MMS account would have been created by now.
4. Duplicate Installation of Audio Manager in \Program File taking up phone memory unnecessarily!!
Solution: Some people might not even notice it. But if you have read this thread carefully, you will notice that you have less phone memory that what is quoted in Post #1. Actually this is a duplicate installation of audio manager created for some unknown reason. i have done all the usual checks but can't find any particular solution for this that i can cook with the ROM. But you can delete the whole Audio Manager folder safely from \Program File without any problem. Audio Manager runs directly from \Windows Folder and the shortcut in Start Menu > Programs also points to that. This is just useless.
3. Audio Booster doesn't allows entering Equalizer settings and checking the equalizer checkbox + Missing Audiobooster Option in Audio Managers Menu
Solution: This is not a problem and happens with some versions of AudioBooster and Audio Manager, if their version numbers are different. To resolve it :-
Just start AudioManager, let it build its library a little and then play a song for minimum 5 seconds. After that start AudioBooster, adjust one of its sliders a little. Then soft reset your phone, and both the problems will be solved. What happens is, they create their respective registry settings on first start and after that everything is fine. In Original ROMs from HTC, since on first boot the Customization applications runs, it sets up the registry itself. But even with that, you have to reboot your device anyway.
4. Audio Manager and Windows Media Player stop playback if power button is pressed and phone enters suspend mode.
Solution: First of all, Thanks to Shaunak.it for finding the solution.
This problem occurs in some specific builds of gene. It can occur in old gene and new gene both. So here is what it is like:
Normally, If you press the power button while music is playing, Audio Manager and Windows Media Player stop playback. But this only happens when headset is not connected. If headset is connected, the playback wont stop.This is a standard behavior and not a problem. But on some p3400 and P3400i phones, the playback stops no-matter headset is connected or not. I was not able to find the solution for this problem as it was not happening with me. But a friend of ours from this forum, shaunak.it solved it as he was having this annoyance. Here's what you have to do:
Open the Task Manager Advanced. Click the down faced arrow to the right of the screen and select Regedit from the menu. Now in the folder tree on the upper half of the screen, Navigate to :
For AudioManager:
HKLM > Software > HTC > Audio Manager > Config
In the lower section, look for a value called ENTER_SUSPEND. If its there, double tap on it to edit it and enter 0 as new value. Otherwise, in an empty area in the same place, tap and hold for a while for a context menu to appear. Select New > Value. Select REG_DWORD as Value Type. In the name field, type ENTER_SUSPEND. Click the Set Data button and enter 1 as the value. Click Ok and then again Ok.
For Windows Media Player
HKLM > System > Current Control Set > Control > Power > State > Suspend. Again in the lower left corner look for a value named WAV, if its there, double tap to edit it and then enter 0 as its new value. Otherwise, in an empty area in the same place, tap and hold for a while for a context menu to appear. Select New > Value. Select REG_DWORD as Value Type. In the name field, type WAV. Click the Set Data button and enter 0 as the value. Click Ok and then again Ok.
This will solve your problem.

Hey dude, great job

@crazy4tricks: Well do it, but do remember this is for New Gene only at this moment. If you have an unpatched phone, read the guide provided as the first thread of this forum to patch it.
@hksin1988: Buddy my previous ROM (Pro User's ROM) was for both old and new gene. I will build the old gene version eventually. I dont have this phone so it takes some time for me to do that.
Good luck and thanks for your good words guys!

what type of changes u made in xip to windows live work ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The XIP that came with this ROM has many things missing, so i extracted the XIP, re-ported it using the Original P3400i WM6 ROM's XIP as base and created a new rom-hdr.nb using this XIP. In simple words, i recreated the whole BASE folder in the kitchen.
@All P3400 OLD GENE Owners:
Guys, be patient. I'll do the porting thing tonight and maybe upload it tonight or tomorrow. Its not like just pressing a button guys, i will need to port the whole XIP again. It takes about 1.5 hours of work.
@swapnil: Buddy the kitchen is quiet huge in size. And its even not complete yet, i use parts of kitchen from Old Users ROM and Part from this new ROM. So its a little more complicated than you think. The Base kitchen that i am using is Ramerson's and Ankit's manilla ROM. So if you really want to learn the process, get these two and read a lot on XIP porting etc on this forum. I have also learn that way. Porting a ROM requires a bit of understanding of the whole architecture of the OS. And even greater if you want to optimize it.
And by the way, when you use Ramerson's kitchen for porting a different ROM, the only thing you can use from the original kitchen is the kitchen.exe file and 1-2 files from the BASE folder. Rest is created from the ROM you are porting, its your job to create it. When you understand the process, you can use this fact as a hint
And guys, one request. Please dont Quote the original post in which i posted details about the ROM with your replys. It looks ugly and serves no purpose. Thank you
Attached thumbnail. LOL

Problem Resolutions:
-----------------------------------------------------
1. Active Sync starting up automatically.
Solution:
Step 1. See the solution given in Pro Users ROM WM 6.1 edition thread.
Step 2. I addition to that here is something that will get rid of the problem forever (next hard reset i mean )
- Open DotFred's task manager and go to Notifications tab.
- Look for all notifications that have repllog.exe in the "Notified Programs" and the value "AppRunAfterTimeChange" in Argument column. Delete these entries (button for deletion is in the bottom toolbar). In most cases there will be two such entries.
-Reboot the phone.
Thats it. ActiveSync wont start on its own now. Please note that even after you do this step, the previous "Fake Server" fix is still needed to be applied. Both of these work together.
Recommended Addons :
--------------------------
1. Advance Configuration Tool : Can be used to change advanced system settings. Some of the most popular settings are to disable dialer themes, tuning filesystem cache for increased performance and enabling battery icon in taskbar on home screen instead of clock. Use it carefully though as some of the settings are a bit dangerous, specially the touchflo touch sensitivity settings.
2. EzInput ABC Default : Sets ABC as the default mode for the new keyboards instead of T9.
3. ClearTemp: Cleanup accumulated junk from your phone using this.
4. Disable XT9 by DuttyThroy: Disables the ET9 and XT9 dictionary system that comes with EZInput keyboards and enables default Windows Mobile's dictionary.
5. HomeScreenPlusPlus with Clock Theme: If you ever get bored with Manila, use it as your homescreen plugin for a good look. Also comes with a very capable task manager and OMAP processor Overclocker (use with caution!!)
6. I-Contact Version .9 and PointUI Modified blue theme NEW!!: Finger Friendly Contact Application. This version is ultra fast! Loads contacts even faster than the default Windows Mobile Contacts app. Amazing!!! And it has settings icons too, but its in Start>Settings>System instead on Programs. I have also included the PointUI theme that closely matches the color scheme of this ROM. I have modified it for working with this ROM.
7. M2DC (Manila 2D Customizer) : It can be used to customize some of the aspects of Manila 2D as well as installing new themes.
8. NEW!! Audio Manager 2.2 Minimal Install : Use the 5 files in the zip file to upgrade your audio manager to version 2.2. This update would be part of any further release of this ROM. For a complete description and download, see this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3295813&postcount=178

Vanilla Manilla
I really cant wait to get back home and flash this new rom..........
@Sumit..... Buddy I am facing a problem with Active Sync since a couple of days (I use vista). The first time when I sync the phone it works but the next time it shows sync error. so I have to delete the partnership and set up device again, this solves the problem but only for one time. the next time I have to sync I have to do the same, meaning delete the partnership and set up device again. I have also noticed that the My Documents folder of the phone on my pc is missing. Im using the new windows mobile device centre...Please help!!
any thing new for old gene
hi
u planning on the same for old gene if so kindly do give me the link
thanks
hari
@nevermind_me: Yes that is an issue with Microsoft Outlook actually. When you start to sync your phone, right click on the taskbar on your PC and click "Task Manager". Go to the "Processes" tab. There, in the "Image Name" column, you will see two instances of "Outlook.exe" running. If you will look at the "Memory (Private Working Set)" column, one will be using higher amount of memory and other will be using lower amount of memory. Kill the outlook.exe which is using more memory and the sync will start.
@svrhari: Yes i will upload an old gene version and when it will be uploaded, you'll get a link in this thread in post #1 as i always do. I will also update the thread title so keep checking for that.

Hey Guys!
I made this ROM for my private use but on demand from my fellows here, i am presenting it here. I have removed some of the personalizations like my photo on splash screen . This ROM is based on the same core as BlackMetal ROM but i have removed most of the bugs from that base. I am doing some research on new builds of Windows Mobile CE OS so there will be something new soon. But for the meanwhile, this is what i have for you.
It has Manilla 2D Elfin Build but with Opal theme. All the software that were there in BlackMetal are here too. Basically some bugs have been fixed, some software versions have been updated, some themes changes and a few utilities added.
I named it VanillaManila because its a pure vanilla rom with manila 2D in all its originality.
Here are the details of it:
Base Operating System version is CE OS 5.2.1622 (Build 20270.1.3.1)
Free Memory at Startup : 22.80 MB initially, After normal use for 5-10 mins : 20.18 MB
Free User Space : 40.69 MB
Page Pool : 5 MB
I have created it with my own ported XIP from WM 6 Original Rom for P3400i using Ramerson's Kitchen (my favourite) for GENE.
Here are some screen shots from the ROM:
I have also attached the individual images of screen shots as a rar file with this post.
Download Link :
For New Gene (Version 1.0) :
Live Skydrive : http://cid-988261b694475a67.skydriv...le/ROMs/SumitsVanillaManilaWM6.1|_NewGene.exe
For OLD Gene (Version 1.0) :
Live Skydrive : http://cid-988261b694475a67.skydriv...e/ROMs/SumitsVanillaManillaWM6.1|_OldGene.exe NOT TESTED YET! PLEASE KEEP A WORKING ROM WITH YOU BEFORE FLASHING THIS AND REPORT ANY SUCCESS IMMEDIATELY IN THIS THREAD. THANKS!
Please NOTE:
1.Please apply the Opal today theme the first time you boot your phone after flashing. Otherwise you wont get flat title and soft key bar and WK task will have a different background color. Will fix it if i get some time.
2. A duplicate installation of Audio Manager is created in \Program Files folder for an unknown reason. You can safely delete it.
ROM is complete, with all parts of OS intact and HTC's original OEM apps in it with updated versions of some. Apart from SQM, Windows Update and Welcome center, nothing is missing from it.
Main Features
* WM 6.1 with Manilla 2D Elfin + Opal version with Windows Live working
* Manila Opal themes for main applications like Manilla 2D plugin, Phone Dialer, Windows Media Player, Calculator, Comm Manager etc.
* WKTask, an advance task manager and program launcher which shows icons of running programs on task bar and manages them very smoothly. Its the primary task manager used in this ROM. HTC task manager is not there as i think its not of much use along with this one. Tweaks have been pre-applied to WKTask so that it doesn't shows Manila2D.exe in the task list and does not hides any icons.
* Good FileSystem and Application Response timing: Windows folder is accessible within 5 seconds from any explorer application despite being a manilla based ROM. Application response time is also good.
* The Packages included are:
- Arcsoft MMS Composer 5_0_31_16
- AudioBooster 1_2_18192131_2
- AudioManager 2_0_1819_1228 with Suspend Mode Playback Problem Fixed. Windows Media Player Fixed too

Problem kindly advise
hi
im not able to see my zip files on my SD card it showing like some kinda windows file and im not able to use the same
kindly adivse
Using : sumits vanilamanila 6.1 for old gene
@hari: Ya, actually zip program is not included in this ROM. PocketRAR is there for it. Open PocketRAR and on first run it will ask you to associate zip and RAR files with it. Check both boxes and click ok. Now your zip files will open in PocketRAR. If you have opened it previously and cancelled this box then open WinRAR, Click on Tools>Settings and on the Integration tab, check both boxes and click OK. That will solve your problem
@hari: please don't quote the original post with your replies. Thats useless and makes it difficult for other people to read them specially for those who read it on their PDAs. And quote only the part you are referring to not the whole useless thing. Ok. Please edit your post if its not a problem for you.

Open the music tab and let Audiomanager rebuild it database. But be aware that every time you visit the music tab, Audio Manager is started, since the tab actually uses audio manager to play back audio

Actually Hari, Whever you go to the music tab on home screen, it will start the audio manager automatically. THis is the default behaviour of Manilla 2D (The thing that you are using on your home screen with tabs, clock, weather, music etc, its called Manilla 2D). To close Audio Manager, click and hold on it, then click close. When it will start for the first time, it will search for music files on your sd card as well as phone memory so it may seem unresponsive. Let it do that once. After that it will start normally.

So, are you a MilliVanilli Fan ?

◄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▌ 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).
Here are some pictures from this ROM's:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can follow me on Twitter:
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.
Meet the Manila MaxSense Edition:
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.
Following is included in this ROM:
Customization: HTC Black Theme combined with HTC Sense Wallpaper and Aluke's Taskbar, Black HERO WM Locksreen and 5 MaxSense 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: 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, PHM Registry Editor), xTask Manager, Bluetooth / WiFi Toggle, Reset, Flash ROM shortcut (No more entering the Bootloader Mode manually if you want to flash - just start the Flash ROM link).
Meet the Manila GTX Edition:
This ROM is based on Manila 2.5.2019 with CFC Compression, and it have a GTX Theme integrated. You are already familiar with some installed programs - you can find them in my GTX Titanium ROM.
Following is included in this ROM:
Customization: Livven GTX Theme combined with GTX Wallpaper and Dark Ninja Desire Taskbar, Livven GTX WM Locksreen and Kachel Wallpapers.
Input: GTX 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, GTX Nitrogen, GTX S2U2, GTX WM Player skin, GTX Bootscreen, GTX Phone Canvas ...
CAUTION: CHT 1.8.5 and CHT Editor 1.8.5.1 are already integrated, DON'T install CHT 2.0 over this GTX Theme - you will break it.
Meet the Manila Sencity Edition:
This ROM is based on Manila 2.5.2019 with CFC Compression, and it have a Sencity Theme integrated.
Thanx to _LeCiel_ for making such a wonderful Theme for Manila. Find more about this Theme over here in the original Thread.

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, Sencity S2U2 ...
CAUTION: CHT 1.8.5 and CHT Editor 1.8.5.1 are already integrated, DON'T install CHT 2.0 over this Sencity Theme - you will break it.
CHANGELOG:
To all users: if you are facing some problems it's allot easier for me to track down the problem if you post a screenshot. You can do this with the freeware MyMobiler. Thank you.

Russian EzInput:
I've got a request over PM for a Russian ROM Version. Sorry, can't make it because of the lack of time. But, i made a cab file that includes English / Russian EzInput that works ONLY on my Manila ROM with EzInput Installed.

Those Languages wore not deleted from the ROM's, all of others Languages are deleted to save some space on the ROM.
If that don't work, then its probably because of the cooked in Theme's. But it worked on Manila and Manila Clean when I was testing ROM's.
THX brainmaster for this rom's. Gtx is very good. Feedback soon.
Astonishing work, I am really impressed and feel myself as little as a "schtroumpf" when I see all the great work you have done!
People like you are a gift for the end user community!

Acronyms
Extracted from WiKi for Easy Reference.
CID Lock (aka vendor lock): put on your device by the manufacturer to prevent installation of a ROM not released by them.
HardSPL: This modified bootloader allows a much safer flashing process to take place since it reduces the chance of permanently bricking your device. It also removes the need to CID Unlock the device since it ALWAYS reports SuperCID when flashing. See the official thread for more info.
Hard Reset: Similar to a soft reset, by performing a hard reset you completely wipe your device and restore it to the position it was in when you first turned the device on after it was purchased or after a new ROM is flashed.
Radio: The radio stack is responsible for the phone functionality of the device. This includes GPRS, GSM, UMTS, and GPS operations as well as camera functionality. The version you use depends on who your carrier is as users have reported versions working better on one carrier than the other. The wiki pages contain the latest versions available to download and install.
ROM: The ROM holds the Operating system and other components such as the bluetooth and wifi stacks. The ROM is accompanied by the Radio, Ext_ROM, SPL and IPL. Carriers such as T-mobile or Vodaphone taylor the ROM to their specifications and version numbers do not carry the same meaning across different carriers. IF the carrier you use supports the device well they will usually release regular ROM updates.
RUU - ROM Upgrade Utility: It’s the s/w used on your PC to do a ROM upgrade for your PPC;
IPL - Initial Program Loader: It’s the bootloader for PPC. It boots up SPL;
SPL - Secondary Program Loader: Loads the actual OS;
SSPL: SSPL is a modified bootloader which is loaded into RAM when run, this allows us to overwrite any aspect of the ROM, Radio or Bootloader far easier than using mtty.

Thanks for sharing
but there is some problem:
1) Alarm Sound doesn't work if you change it from htc sense; I mean you can change it from setting/sound and notification.
2) after installing Persian Language pack my sms won't be shown correctly but anything else in other program is right. also I can't install updates for HTC Messaging.
and is it possible to reduce space between Lines in any program

Hello Mahdian57, Thanks for your input .
For #1: It does work for me and another device. I have set the alarm for 5:00am and it did ring today morning . Let me know is that the place you are referring to?
For #2: I have very less idea about the SMS issue of your locale language. I will try to get some input from my friends and let you know.
Which HTC Messaging update you are referring to?
Reg Space between lines: Are you talking about the Start menu Programs that shows 3 icon and you want to see more?
If this is true: As I tried to be very close to stock ROM, but I will still try to have this in next build.
Thanks.
Watch for the next release tomorrow...

Alarm: U must change it from setting/Clock & Alarms not directly from home Screen
SMS: version 0.7 with Secure box
Space: in Default ROM spaces are tight together but You've added extra spaces between Lines (something like "line and Paragraph spacing" tool in Microsoft Word to change space between lines or paragraph)
I have also another question, is it really work "pocket mode"?
because it works based on proximity sensor as HTC said to me

Thanks for the detail info Mahdian57,
Alarm:
I have tested from Manila - Home, Start -> Alarm and Settings -> Clock & Alarm. Actually the Settings - Clock & Alarm uses the Start - Alarm program.
ALL 3 are working. But I think the alarm program (Start - Alarm) has some bug .
I may remove that in my next build or fix the issue.
SMS:
I have never tested the Secure SMS.
On search I get the URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741179
That looks promissing, I will try that some time and have in the ROM .
Space: I am really sorry if I have not understood you, but if the issue is spacing between the start menu icons (program icons), than: I think the spacing is same as the stock ROM. Please confirm.
Pocket Mode:
Never tested so deeply, but I agree about the HTC's proximity sensor working mode.
Thanks.

Have you marked the 'Use unicode when necessary' checkbox in message settings? This may solve your problem.
I confirm that there are issues with the alarm sound if you switch from HTC Sense to the Windows Mobile default view or vice versa. Alarm sounds do not activate and you have to reset all those sounds (for each alarm if you set several alarms). But I am not sure that this problem can be solved in the Windows registry. Perhaps it lies somewhere deeper (in DLLs, for example).
