rotastrain from xda-developers has been quite busy these days developing a lot of extra hacks for TouchFlo 3D. He is the same guy who gave us Retractable Slider for TF 3D, now he brings his next mod for Touch Flo 3D called Hyper Fluid.

In his own words
” Hyper Fluid : The vertical slider bar hack for tf3d manila (WVGA)

This is a vertical slider tf3d on all wvga devices.It puts manila tf3d on steroids . Its name is derived from the fluidity of the entire slider as the icons are not just stationary but gravitate towards the selector! The selector is animated and is the first of its type. Over all this is the king of tf3d hacks and tweaks.

It gives a nice big screen with big icons and kick ass eye candy!! ”

The new version of TouchFlo 2D a.k.a Manila 2D version 2.0 is out now, Unlike the older version there are no complex steps involved. Its a simple Download and Install the cab to get it. Some things to keep in mind though.

- this is only WWE version, it won’t work correctly with other languages.
- apparently it does not work with WM6.1 , so only WM6.5 at the moment
- if you had any previous version of Manila, don’t forget to uninstall it and do soft reset before installing this version. Also keep in mind that it will keep your personal settings, like people tab photos, weather cities or launcher number of rows/clomuns.
- for those having problems installing be sure that you have all basic applications from HTC + some others like:
+ HTC Album
+ HTC Audio Manager, AudioBooster, Trimmer …
+ YouTube
+ GoogleMaps
- in Settings Tab Wallpaper change and New Mail Setup does not work.
