Hi,
I have a bunch of appointments in a category called South Pacific (my gym) which I have also labeled as tentative. I wish that all these appointments would not show up on my today screen, as it clogs it up and makes it hard to see my actual meetings. I would prefer to just see them in the actual calendar app instead.
Is there some way I can hide either tentative or certain categories from the calendar on the today screen? If not, is there addon software that would do this for me?
By the way, I have a Wizard that I just upgraded to WM6.
Thanks
Hi, I just answered my own question.
If anyone is searching for a similar solution, I googled "today screen hide free appointments" and found TodayAgenda: http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/todayagenda.shtml
Totally free, does exactly what I want (and more, I have only used it for 2 minutes) plus it works with windows mobile 6. Did I mention it is free?

Simple request
Does anybody know of a simple utility that can incorporate Tasks into Pocket Outlook. Tasks then will be intergrated into the calander and will use the appointment screen to set a task. Also this utility should manage to display a full weeks appointments and task in sequence - not seperated.
Thanks in anticipation

There's a free today screen plugin that shows combined tasks and appointments...
http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda
I've given up on it for now but it seemed to work ok. Not as advanced as other plugins like PocketBreeze but much lower overhead associated with using it.
Have reverted back to standard plugins even though they are pretty pathetic since the plugin didn't seem to cope with orientation switching too well - an annoyance when using it with a device with a slide out landscape keyboard.
PocketBreeze for Me!!
I can't comment on TodayAgenda, as I've never tried it. I found it on these forums after purchasing PocketBreeze. But, from everything I've read about it on that thread, it's a very good program.
However, I WILL say that I LOVE PocketBreeze, and it would be virtually impossible (IMO) to find anything that even comes close. It does exactly what the OP wanted, plus more. It's the only plugin I use on my Today Screen, and it allows for Custom tabs to be set for other plugins, as well. So, I have iLauncher, Pocket Weather and Spb Time integrated into PB as custom tabs and from that can access virtually everything on my Wizard from the Today Screen through Pocket Breeze.
There's a 14 day free trial period, but I was sold on it after only 3 days and bought it. Others may have different views, but for me -- it's the BEST!!
I've use both todayAgenda and pocketbreeze. For the price of todayAgenda, there isnt really much to 'complain' about, other than the fact that, it doesn't display tomorrow as 'Tomorrow', which is quite annoying (that it lowered the importances of the task/schedule).
Anyway, I'm using pBreeze now and no complain so far. It is highly customizable which others may find annoying, but if you want to have full control on your display, go for it. I so wish I get commission for selling this software
Check new todayAgenda 0.95 beta and check spbDiary with better phone contacts handling (hardware keyboard) than pocketBreeze.
Thanks everybody.
TodayAgenda works well for me. Exactly what I wanted.

Hi all,
Since last monday I am also the proud owner of the touch pro from HTC.
It's certanly a big change coming from the wizard, I have 2 of them in case my new phone stops working.
But what I like to know is: is it possible to add more than 15 favs in the touchflo 3d interface?
Hope someone can help me
Request also
Same here, mate.
I would also like to see an unlimited amount of favorites in the Tflo3d contacts tab. It wouldn't be called favorites than anymore but just Contacts Tab!
See my pro's and con's with the Raphael, both hardware and software. This one you can add to the software list disadvantages.

Anyhow, if anybody has an idea, please write it here!

Anybody got back to you on this one. I will also like to add more favorites.
i'm 99% sure its not possible.
According to HTC manual, fifteen (15) is the maximum.
Though I am sure that someone will come up with a tweak
Fact of the matter is:
It's not possible with current version of TF3D. Not even a tweak or a registry setting.
Hopefully in a new update of TF3D or perhaps TouchXperience will have this capability!
We'll wait and see what happens, hoping developers will know about these user wishes.
Regards....
If you're going to have that many favorites, isn't that the same as WM Contacts app? Why even bother with Favorites?
Maybe you'll actually looking for call groups like how Nokia has them?
Nu,
I have about 200 contacts, 15 favorites of 200 wont cut it. At least give me 40. I dont expect unlimited, 200 favorites is just ridiculous and you are right on that one. But 15, I mean, I have more than 15 customers that I have to call, to go throught all contacts or voice command (which I have to repeat like 5 times before I give up). I am sure its just a variable somewhere with a fixed value that can be changed. I wish I could see that code behind it.
Yes, Lol is right.
15 fav's is just not enough. Your pathetic if you only have 15 dear friends and families.
I already have 15 best friends, no room for parents, brothers, other direct families and close collegues.
I believe if I speak to most off us, that, what we like to see is the Contacts tab showing just 15 fav's needs a complete makeover in where the user gets to choose he/she wants to have only XX number of fav's shown, OR the entire list of contacts, including some sort of alphabetic scrollbar on top.
TF3D is meant for quick usage of your most actions on a phone, like calling contacts, reading sms/email, browse photos, listen to music, select communications like BT, and quicklinks to programs. That's why TF3D has all these tabs, so you don't have to find your way through WM start menu. So now when trying to dial one, and go to contacts tab, and it's not in my fav's, then theres to much action needed to get the contact I want. (press more, scroll down etc.)
Like I said earlier, it should become a choice for users. Fav's or entire contacts list. And perhaps the 2 buttons left and right bottom corner could be like 'New contact' and right: 'Search contact'
It just an idea.
the developers making TouchXperience are in the right direction, I'm still waiting for their first release which is taking very long. They need to expand and let Beta users help them finish the product.
Regards

Need more
I am having the same problem. I was really put out when I was adding my contacts and the add a favorite option was gone. I hope someone comes up with a way around this. I unfortunately have no programing skills...much respect to those who do, you make my fuze sing
Hi. I have never had any application on my HTC S710, but I found a site called handango and bought three I found very usefull.
This is what I bought:
Chronos alarm clock
SBSH Papyrus and Facade
So when i managed to find three just by looking at handango, there must be many more that I need. So does anyone else have a application that they recomend? Post it here.

You should have bothered looking into the forum. There is already a thread for Vox applications.
Photo Contacts Pro is a must for me
Not because of the photo contacts, but because of the complete profiling options... and by complete I mean COMPLETE
Auto Switch profiles (also different depending on type of meeting)
Fixed time Switches (like night time peace and quiet)
Exceptions (Group exceptions (Family) or single exceptions (Wife/Girlfriend))
"Quick Profiles" like -> Quiet for the next 2 hours (for watching a movie)
etc.
Here is the link:

you should have bought from the developers directly.
handago really rips the developers off with their huge commission.
I didnt know that. Im gona buy directly from the developers next time.
Hi folks,
I searched an hour and couldn't find anything: I want to be able to (easily) switch the today screen calendar to:
A) only show private meetings
B) show all meetings
The Nokia N70 does this nicely but I couldn't find any WM software to do the trick. I own a Nike with WM 6.1 btw.
The reason for my request is, that on weekens I would like to be spared with being reminded of meetings next week at the office - improving my work-life-balance ;-)
Anyone know of a solution?
Thanks & Best regards,
p0lDi
This is a wonderful option to be implemented into poutlook. I know you can filter your appointments by categories rather than by status.. so i assume that if you're willing to accept this it would not be that hard to write a quick script which switches between filters.
do you think that would be enough?
not sure - I would assume that the filter is not applied to the today screen, or is it? Also I use categories for other things already... But maybe I just got you wrong ;-)
Well, i assume that to filter to the today screen you'd need a seperate application... but i'm not sure.
The windows today plugin is indeed very basic with only few to no options.
You'll need a separate today plugin like SPB Diary or WebIS Pocket Informant.
I'm sure there are lits more.
Hi,
I actually have a Polaris Touch Crusie (the first one) and am running a nonstandard operating system.
I have been looking on and off for months, and all i basically want, is the color categories in wm6.1 calander to show up, that i have set on desktop outlook 2007. My search fu may not be the greatest, but i have tried google many times, and i personally do not have to the time to go thru the entire xda forums and every thread. I really can't seem to find anything.
I really don't want to go the hassle of a completely different calendar program on the PDA, because i am so intergrated with Outlook 2007. I really don't want to mess up my outlook integration and deal with a bunch of work arounds if possible.
Are colors on the calandar, by chance part of wm6.5? anyone got anything.Is there a registry hack to do this (add color cats to wm6.1)?
Could the be done with a some hack (or code mod) to basic calander, and pasted into a custom rom from someone else, then loaded with a kitchen program, i think? (i hope that was the right phrasing)
anyone got any advice or help?
Thanks
Lol, you want an answer but dont have time to search for one hence asking (joke)
Anyway, basically this cannot be done using 6.1,6.5 ms calender app. If you want this function there are 3rd party apps that can show calender categories and that intergrate quite well.
Our devices have to restrict functionality of their desktop equivilents due to storage and processing restrictions, otherwise they just wouldnt run on a pocket device (hence the phrase)
Cheers.
