I've tried searching but have come up empty. I'm not sure if it's somethin a skin can fix or if it's just one of the programs faults. Every skin I've tried ends up with the same result so I'm assuming it's just the program.
When displaying the weather, it shows todays temperature as low and high (58/74) instead of just the current temperature. I want just the current temperature. Is there a way to do this or am I just going to have to deal with it?
was that the result from Spb Weather? because without Spb Weather, my device used to show inaccurate weather result at all

what are peoples poisons ?
how many are free?
personaly i find the only show 1 days weather like the default touch plugin seem to do kinda useless unless you work underground and cant look out the window
it's what tomorrow and the day after brings that i wanna know about
SPB Weather is the one I have gone back to time and time again, although saying that I don't currently use it.
The problem I find is that whatever it says changes from morning to afternoon since weather is so unpredictable.
Now I simply use weather plugins on www.google.com/ig and view that on Opera.
I'm still using PocketWeather with the radar images configured on my Today Screen. I have two images for each city -- one regional and one local so I know what's coming during the day and how long it will take for anything showing on the regional radar to get here. I also have it set to update weather conditions and radar images every 15 minutes so the info is always up-to-date. . . wouldn't leave home without it.
Hi all..
Is it possible to display seconds after the hour, minutes and in front of the AM/PM display in the homescreen clock of a SMARTPHONE?
You know, like hh:mm:ss tt format?
I tried this in the HKLM/nls/overrides entry, but it only shows hh:mm tt, seconds are not displayed.
If the seconds are displayed, does it take more battery power, due to the constantly changing display?
Also is it possible to display atleast one world clock in the SMARTPHONE today screen by using some xml edit, and without using another plugin? If not, with a plugin? I searched everywhere, but none seemed to have a good smartphone plugin.
Codecity CityTime was said to have one plugin in 1.5, but now they are 2.0 and dont seem to have a SMARTPHONE homescreen plugin. And I cant find the 1.5 version anywhere either.
BTW, my device is a samsung blackjack2 (SCH i617)
Thanks guys..
Regards
Steve
for clock with seconds on home screen, i use Pocket Digital Clock
for world clock, i use SPB Time
Thanks, but it didnt work in my smartphone. Guess its for Professional
maybe it' time to get a professional phone? haha
Not that netnerd, I already have two Professionals (the latest being Tilt which you should know being in USA), but I find this more handy, thats why
Hey, looking for a program that will display my tasks on the today screen regradless to their due date or if they even have a due date. A simple list of tasks...
Is there such a thing?

try ultimate launch. it's related to other launch programs like ilaunch or claunch. the big difference is for each tab / window you can put a today plug in.
with that i have 5 tabs on my screen using ultimate launch. the first is a simple analog clock, the second is the today speed dial plug-in, the third has ilaunch where i can position the short cuts in any area i want, the fourth has a 3-month calendar and the 5th is a list of my tasks. i remember i used "today agenda" or something like that for the task plug in.
Having become frustrated with TouchFLO 3D and SPB Mobile Shell, I've decided to ditch them and try the Windows Mobile today screen as my main interface.
So I'm looking for recommendations for the following today screen plugins (maybe apps):
Analog clock with date
RSS reader that displays actual headlines
Task display that shows a list of active tasks (not just the fact that there are some)
Some sort of pretty icon notification for sms, email, missed calls, voicemail etc.
Weather like you get in TouchFLO3D and SPB Mobile Shell displaying 5 days
A program/links launcher of some kind
Alternative program for viewing texts/emails
Any other great recommended today screen plugins
Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated
Before ditching TF3D altogether, have you tried Manila Today Page? This enables you to add an extra tab which functions as a Today screen, giving you [nearly] all the benefits of Today screen configurability AND the TF3D eye candy.
Thanks for the reply, and yes I have read about that.
For me, I should be able to see all the information I want without having to touch anything, if there's any point to all this technology. It's absurd that SPB Mobile Shell and TouchFLO both lack the ability to display active tasks, just for example.
Also, while trying the today screen, I've found that it looks nowhere near as horrible as I have seen inscreenshots, perhaps thanks to the Touch Diamond 2's fantastic WVGA display.
I guess my principle recommendations are:
1. SPB PocketPlus
Provides a tabbed launcher interface so uses up minimal screen real estate when minimised (with or without autohide) but each tab opens up to reveal whatever app shortcut links you put in them. Very configurable, very stable, and very useful.
2. Marsware Weatherpanel
A bit fiddly and slightly buggy on occasion, but still a superb weather application. Lots of skin options, support for animated graphics, and up to 7 day view (depending on which display option you choose). It also refreshes its view of 'current' weather conditions based on specified time intervals (I don't mean downloading new data, I mean it knows what the weather is at a given time and keeps up to speed with it as it changes).
3. Phoneweaver
A profiling application with a useful Today screen plugin giving instant access to wifi, bluetooth, phone and data switching. Also has SMS and email counters giving instant access to these tools, plus missed call counter. Profiling options are comprehensive, and app is rock solid stable and reliable.
Agree
Mr Anderson: I agree with you!
I would also like to see all info without a touch on the screen. I tried many apps, but dropped them all and today I use plugins and standard windows Today Screen.
So here what I use, if it helps:
1. SBP Phone Suite / plugin
To see small icons indicators, miss calls, new mails, new sms, new voice mail and a toggle for turning on/off wifi and bluetooth.
2. SPB Weather plugin
Displaying weather
3. SPB Wireless
to see my monthly traffic
4. RSS Hub
for new headlines
These are what I use on my Today Screen
let me know if you find something interesting
So, after searching the Apps section and trying a few Apps suggested by some others, I am at a loss for why this doesn't exist. I know Lock screens are pretty well dead due to the advent of biometric logins but Live Wallpapers still seem to thrive. I know all the bad that comes with them, battery life and whatnot. But every Live Wallpaper I have seen, is little more than either a looped video or an animation that plays in a loop (maybe the rare one is interactive but I digress). Perhaps it is because widgets exist, but those too come with their own set of limitations I am sure, since I am not a developer I would not know.
If anyone remembers the HTC Sense 5 Weather Live Wallpaper, it was on the lockscreen but that is unimportant. It was a great weather live wallpaper, had excellant animations including lightning rain drops on the screen, snow, moon cycle, etc..
I am looking for a fullscreen widget that will do this, or perhaps a halfscreen? The point is, a widget that does weather animations based on the current weather conditions and perhaps a few hours out and then when you press on the widget, it would open whatever default weather app you had or at the least, whatever app it was using for its information.
Since I am pretty sure this app doesn't exist, it either means this is a new idea (VERY unlikely) or that there is a limitation somewhere (perhaps only on Samsung devices?) that is preventing it from working the way I am hoping. Its been many years since I was here and it makes me wonder if this idea has already been hashed out and found to be dead or if the idea just went away.
If anyone can let me know, I would appreciate it. If I am missing something, perhaps an app that looks a bit shady (low number of reviews and downloads) but is exactly what I am looking for, please give me the name. I've been all over the Play Store and the Galaxy Store and it kind of makes me wonder why this doesn't exist or if I am just blind.
FYI, my current device is the Fold 3, so if HTC has something that is what I am looking for but won't work on my device, it will suck but the question is still valid.
Thanks!
