I made a small modification to your Call History tab, I hope it's welcome.

What I basically did was fix the positioning of the Tab Icon that sits on the try so that it's more in alignment with the rest of the tab icons:

attachment.php


You can find the cab file below. To install, disable Sense 2.5, install cab, re-enable Sense 2.5(no soft-reset necessary).

I also made a HTC skin for the Call History icons in the tab:

attachment.php


You can find the cab for this below as well. This also contains the repositioned tray icon. Installation instructions for this cab are the same as the cab for repositioned tray icon.

Enjoy

So basically I'd need to install both those cabs to the device and that other zip so 3 in total soft reset and that's it?? You also need to shut off manila 2.5 first correct?? This is awesome and I want to do it but before I do so I need to ask you if this will work on Ark_n roms, the latest being build 23544 w/manila 2.5 using all the newest/latest t-mobile hd2 2.10 software!!

Also by installing, what negative effects does it present if any or does eliminate any other tabs?? the rom im on also doesn't have the manila tv tab if thats the only one it would effect!?

Upload your 26948339_manila file here and I will make you a cab and also upload it here for you. :)

Hi dharvey, I do appreciate your "skin" however I do think it's meant for lower-than-VGA resolutions: on my Diamond, icons are kinda blurry... do you confirm that? Can you please post a VGA-graphics-enabled cab? I'd really like that... thanks anyway! ;)

That has to do with how the images are being scaled. I tried to make them as sharp as possible but they're still blurry, even on my Fuze. I'm not sure how to make them any better as all I really did was edit the qtc images. I didn't edit the actual MOD.

I asked in the Co0kie Homescreen Mod thread, but no one seemed to know. I'm using his homescreen mod and would like for the homescreen call history link to go to the call history tab instead of the all people/call history tab. Is this possible?

Really great. When there are missed calls, will it show the number of calls over the icon in the small colored circle? [like we see on the SMS tab icon in your screen shot]
Is there going to be an update that will include the number of voicemails?

i've got a problem with this!
It works good but sometimes the menus have IDS_XXX text instead of the text (well almost all the time)

My language is spanish, any idea?

    Sense2.5 CallHistory Tab
    Work for VGA see here


    Thanks for the hard work on this. I had to add a reg setting for it to show up in the manila tab settings so it could be moved. I have posted a cab of the reg settings
    Thank you sir! Can be found here

    attachment.php


    6BECE1ED_manila is the one that sits on top of the slider. The one that sits on the tray was positioned a bit too high on the tray and so that's the one I adjusted.

    EDIT:: Here is the Manila File that sits on top of the slider, slightly adjusted so that it is centered on the slider instead of being slightly offset to the left. To see the difference, compare the below screenshot with the one I posted above.

    attachment.php


    Attached below is just the manila file needed to make this adjustment.

    To install, use Total Commander or Resco Explorer to copy to the Windows folder.

    I'm just getting around to trying your new WVGA call history tab. Is this something that I can just install on top of my already cooked in Call History tab or is it a total replacement of the all the files?

    Hi !

    Sorry for dalay I have seent he post just now. I think that you can install it without problems because I have changed only the icons.
    Anyway follow this procedure, it take 5 minutes or less :

    1) go to your device/windows e copy this file : 26948339_manila to your memory card o wherever you want.
    2) disable manila
    3) install the cab and soft reset if it ask you
    4) take the 26948339_manila that you have saved before and put on windows folder overwriting the existing one
    5) re-enable manila.

    P.S. all this is valid in the assumption that you already have the call history tab already in your rom ...
