Hi,
does anyone here use the TodayAgenda tool on the Touch Pro? I wonder if this is useful as it runs on the Today screen but does not fit into the TouchFLO3D ... Is there a good calendar tool already installed on Touch Pro? I am used to TodayAgenda on my HTC Wizard ...
Cheers,
Eriol
if touchflo is running on the today screen, no other today application can be used / displayed. However, by using an application called secondtoday (google it) you can have a second today screen, with all your usual today apps running. Switching between the two today screens can be done with a soft key - there is another app on the same site that sets this up for you - it replaces the phone soft key on the homescreen with secondtoday.
I use pocket informant which provides much better calenders, contact lists etc.
I don't use TodayAgenda, but I do use SPBDiary running on a SecondToday screen. It works very well switching between TouchFlo3D and the classic looking Today screen.
I also run a number of other Today Plugins in this screen provided by SecondToday e.g. PhoneAlarm and PocketWeather.

I've been using TodayAgenda with SecondToday since getting my Pro.
The flipping between TouchFlo and TodayAgenda works perfectly and there's no lag.
With VGA its possible to cram a lot of info on to the screen and still being legible.
Best solution I've seen so far to make up for the limited number of diary entries on the TouchFlo Todday screen. (Plus it's free!!)
Would be nice if TF3D can be hacked to add a tab that shows a selected Today module
absolutely. really need this.
I do
I use it on the second today screen. I'm unable to map a soft key to second today on the primary today screen though.

Im getting my touch pro either tomorrow or the day after. I was just wondering what software applications would be good to have on this device?? I have seen throttlelock v 0.2, which i will try....if there any other cool applications please post them.
Thanks
Useful Apps.
For me HTC TouchFlo is great but flawed by the lack of being able to see more than 2 future calendar items.
Therefore in addition to TouchFlo I'm using SecondToday, which adds a second Today screen, you can then map one of the SoftKey on TouchFlo to display the second Today screen:

On SecondToday I've just got TodayAgenda running using the full second Today screen:
http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda&lang=en
And added to these I've got Batti installed, for a better indication of battery status:
http://code.google.com/p/batti/
Best of all, the above are all freeware.
I love the TF3D interface but the calendar items is very annoying.
so I switched to SBP mobile shell, and SBP diary (also have SBP weather too)
I do miss the funkyness of the touch flo, but my device is now much easier to use and gives me more information upfront.
I read a little and apparently it is not possible ,at the moment, to incorporate "Phone Alarm" into TouchFlo 3D.
Well this pisses me of because I spent over $1000.00 on that new device and I can't even configure it the way I want and use the apps or "Tools" I like and need the way I want it....
So the goal of this Thread is to see if there are others in the same situation and maybe team up to try to find someone that has the Resources, Knowledge and the Time to make this request possible...
I've been reading on this site for almost two years and became a member (not too active) close to a year now and can honestly say that there is some super brilliant minds in here, not all, but some, that could probably write a "Patch" or even Rewrite this TouchFlo3D SW that would allow it to be personalized and more user friendly.
There is four things that I would like to get in this new TF3D
1- Ability to have TF3D and PA (Phone Alarm) to run simultaneously (without the need of a 3rd party sw)
2- Have the "Top Bar" or "Bottom Bar" to display the actual PA "Profile"
3- Have a large PA "Scroller" field (somewhere)
4- Link the "little WM Alarm Clock" to PA's Alarm instead.
If there are some others in the same situation, please let it be known...
I am really please with using SecondToday making the left softkey open SecondToday from the Home Page of Touchflo 3D.I know you said no third party software but it is really nice to have the "best" of both worlds in using ToucFlo as it was designed and having a whole new Today screen for PhoneAlarm. With the power of our device there is absolutely no lag when switching between SecondToday today screen and Touchflo "today" screen.
this really works and I'm actually glad to have touchflo and phonealarmon different pages
ps I have a nice vga skin for PA and TodayAgenda on my secondtoday today screen

What skin do you use for PhoneAlarm ?
I didn't find a nice one yet so I now use PhoneWeaver with SecondToday instead of PhoneAlarm but I want to use PhoneAlarm again.
I've used PhoneAlarm on my TytnII for almost a year and is way better than PhoneWeaver.
Hi,
someone can hel me to see the active tasks in TODAY of TouchFLO?
Now I can see only Time, calendar and calls..
I try to set the tasks in START-SETTING-TODAY-ELEMENTS but nothing.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have the same problem. But no solution
Tasks Touch LO
A simply way to it's to sobstitute calendar with tasks activity.
But how?
I try to use advance config tools secion TouchFLO 3D but no sets are here for my problem.
????
No other Today plugins/items can be used if TF3D is activated.
Until someone works out how to add task to TF3D itself (I assume by editing the XML bits of manilla) you will not be able to do this.
What would be really useful is if someone figured out how to add a Tasks tab to TF3D and also a Calendar tab too (I know there is one but I don't think it shows highlights on days with appointments etc).
People are working on these things so I tihnk there will be a solution down the road.
TF3D
So to solve the only way is to disable TF3D.
No solucion installing SPB Mobile shell o similar becouse with TF3D active it's impossible to add Tasks in Today Screen too.
Many thinks to solve
It's incredible you buy a terminal It's cost 800€, and you have to put a cab to fix double contact SIM and Cellular, You can't display the active tasks..., ....!!
But the ingeneers are tested this, or the most important think is to have a good weather tasks?
Bho!?
I have been searching for a Touchflo Tasks tab also with no luck. My best solution thus far as been to remap my PTT button to my tasks. This definitely isn't too bad to work with. I use NATFs ROM on my Fuze which already has remapping tools but you can use fuzemobility.com and search for PTT remap if you need.
why dont you try that tf3d disabler that lets you switch between tf3d and standard today screen plugins? simple click of a soft key and your back and forth between the two.

That would be your best bet IMO.
install secondToday, map that app to the PTT button or some other hard key, and you can easily have an alternate today screen for expanded agenda and tasks. By installing SecondToday, you can have all of your plug-ins right at hand... and get to them from anywhere in the device.
It's the best of both worlds. Really.
Does anyone know if the newer versions of Touch Flo 3D will allow other Today plug-ins ? Such as Tasks, etc?
I just started using MTP (Manilla Today Page) and it's incredible.
Just what I needed to put SPB Diary as it's own tab in TF3D.
I couldn't use TF3D for months till i got this working, and i gotta say, it's gorgeous.
what is Manila Today Page?
Any update with the Tasks Tab?
Now with the new HTC HD2 - I think that TouchFlo is finally a decent replacement for SPB Mobile Shell.
However, I still miss the Tasks window to complete the tabs list...
Hi,
I have just the otherday managed to upgrade my HTC Touch to an actual official WM6.1 OS supplied by HTC (belive it or not!). Since I bought the phone in Bangkok I have had to wait for the relese of the HTC Thailand upgrade.
It included the ThouchFLO 2d (which I recon sux....can't change a thing about it), but I really liked the big clock in wm6.0. Is there a way to download a file somewhere to get the clock (a clock) to show up at the "settings/today/items"?
I have had a look at the Throttle launcher, M2D but can't really get any of them to work properly....anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
/F
my device:
HTC Touch P3452 ELF0100, WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19972 (build 19972.1.2.7)
ROM 3.07.707.02 WWE, 10/25/08
Radio 03.34.90
Not sure what you mean about big clock but do a search for HTC Home plug-in (I think the latest cab is version 2.1) and see if that is what you are after. Otherwise, have you tried the Manila 2D customizer tool (M2DC)? I don't know if it works on shipped roms TF2D but it might let you change certain aspects of TF2D.
Good luck
Hi,
Yes sorry for being a bit unclear....what I ment was ofcourse the digital clock display at the HTC Default Home screen. I have tried the HTC Home plug-in but it, as for so many others (feedback) freezes and forces me to hard reset.
The problem occurs when I turn off the Touchflo 2D in favour of other themes, I get no option to display a clock on the today screen (under items to display). Hence downloaded themes comes out as plain as can be without anything but a background, start and bottom bar.
I would like to have a digital clock display as for the previous HTC Default Home screen....or similar clock at least.
I read somewhere that you could display/hide the clock by changing registry values under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CClock, Disabled to 0, as per this website. I have chacked in that location but found no such registry value named cclock.
Staring to think I might be actually a bit stupid for missing something very simple.....you never know until someone tells you!
I hope I made myself a bit more clear...
/F
Well it sounds like you know what you are doing so I don't want to sound too "teachy". But what you are doing in the Item screen is turning off a Today plug-in (TF2D). AFAIK, everything that would appear on the Today screen is displayed as a plug-in. Your rom opted to show the TF2D plug-in. This plug-in overrides all others in the item screen so in order to use another plug-in, you must uncheck the TF2D plug-in. So with no plug-ins selected, you will have a blank Today screen.
There are several plug-ins you can install as alternatives to TF2D such as HTC Home, RLToday, etc. Just query Today plug-ins. Once installed you can initialise them from the Items screen. It is a little worrying that HTC Home crashes on your device. You might try a soft reset (small hole, poke with stylus) or uninstall it and reinstall it. It might be that you've run out of Program memory (Settings-->System--Memory). A soft reset will free it up again. I hope some of this is helpful.
Hello,
i tried the search option but i can't find any infos how to add plugin from today screen (MS today) in HTC Sense.
So i use SPB Phone Suite and Dual SIMToday. (see attachment)
These apps i just can see on the Today screen (just a dll??).
So i can't make a shortcut on them.
btw: is it possible to get rid of the Clock on Sense ?
Thanks for your help.

hi,
you can use Second Today (http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_wm_tools_im_cs.htm). I use it myself and its working fine the only drawback that it doesn't timeout.
