[REQ] Tasks on HTC Sense 2.5 Hometab. - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Is there a way to get rid of the quicklinks and add a the tasks application in it's place? Or even have a tasks tab in Sense 2.5/ The HTC Leo/HD2 (Aus) is a great phone, but will end up having to go back to standard 6.1 style windows due to lack of tasks tab/manager. Been searching all day to no avail.

Hmmm, I put my task in the quicklinks.

can you explain how did you display the tasl in your quicklinks?

I too would LOVE to have tasks incorporated into Sense, either into the Calendar-tab or as a stand-alone tab.
I presently use a combination of pTasks (from this forum) and Pocket Informant (set up to show tasks in the calendar views) to access my tasks.
Both are very helpful programs but still I am not 100% satisified.
Sadly the developer of pTasks has clearly stated that there will be NO pTasks tab for Sense so that ends that hope.
I love the tweaked setup of my HD2 now and the only thing I really miss is the ability to see and modify my tasks directly in Sense!
If anyone in this great forum has any info on the 'Tasks-in-Sense' request please share!!

I'd also love to have a Tasks Tab or inside Calendar Tab or on Home Tab. Any of the three solution would have a great appreciation I think. Poll on this?

Tasks TouchFLO

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...

The NO TF3D Customization thread

I was just wondering how many people do not run the TF3D program on their TP or Fuze? And to those who do not run it what do your home screens look like? WHat programs do you customize your phone with? Just wondering cause I was going to get off the TF3D wagon for a while just for a change.
I use SPB shell and suite.
After a week with the Tilt, the excitement of TF3D wore off, so I finally removed it from the phone. I'm now running a VGA version of HTC Home, which I really like. Of course, nothing is perfect, and current problems are:
1. No customization program for VGA version of HTC Home
2. Contacts tab doesn't work (don't care about this, as I don't use that tab anyway)
3. Weather tab works, but available cities are limited
4. Program launcher tab only has room for 9 programs
Below the HTC Home section of my main screen, I also have my calendar, a Live Search plugin (for web searches right from the desktop), and a device locking button.
The only thing I miss from TF3D is the Intenet tab; I liked having the tab list my favorite pages.

Today screen for Samsung Saga i770

After more than four years with different WM smartphones, I finally moved to a PPC with the Samsung i770 aka Saga. The phone works great at 96 dpi with RealVGA, but I am having trouble finding a good today screen. I am surprised on two counts:
1. Incompatibility of themes between various screen resolutions, and
2. Small number of themes for the 320x320 screen of the i770.
I am looking for a today screen setup that looks like Manila 2D, but allows more things on the "home" tab (voicemail indicator, time of the next alarm, next 2-3 appointments instead of one, ability to control all-day appointments, etc.) I also absolutely need a calendar / appointments tab. Nice-to-have is the ability to show multiple timezones on the "home" tab and integration with the Samsung Alarms application rather than the Microsoft one that is part of the OS Settings. Is there anything out there that matches these needs? And what's the most popular / versatile today screen "shell" that people are using on 320x320 devices? It looks from the threads here that HTC Home was all the rage many months ago, then SPB Mobile Shell was the shell seeming most skinning action, and then UltimateLaunch, and then Manila 2D. What's the "in thing" now?
Thanks!
PS: I am tinkering with ThrottleLauncher right now, but I am not sure if there is something "better" out there.
You can use SPBMobileShell 2 (3 will be out soon so you might wanna wait) and look for a skin containing everything you just mentioned. there is a huge skins thread for SPBMS in the Dev&Hack section
Thank you. The challenge has been to find something that works with the square 320x320 screen at 96 dpi. Most screens seem to be for QVGA resolution.

How to change links from sense (calendar-->informant)..?

Hi,
there was before ssmapa, if I remember well...
what about Leo, is there any soft to change links
from sense to 3rd party software, on example,
from calendar to informant.. etc?
Does anybody tried?
Is there maybe registry changes?
thx
Wox !
I'm interested too in the modifiable link of the home screen.
If you set PocketInformant (or any other calendar app.) to your default app. for appointments and you hide the calendar tab in Sense, a tap on a calendar item in the sense home page will take you directly to PI.
If you set PI as the default app. for task a tap on the WinMo task icon wil fire up the taks "department" of your favorite organizer app.
(didn't test contacts, but i guess that it will work in the same way)
This trick will also work for Agenda One and SBSH Calendar Touch (tested)
Personnaly, I put SBSH Calendar Touch on start icon on today of sence and keep the tab of calendar.
When I want to see rapidly my appointments, I click on the tab of sence, if I want more, I click on SBSH CT icon.
Yeah, that's a nice setting. I like the calendar tab of Sense too, I even use it for quickly making an appointment. A nice and simple way of getting your things done.
But it's always nice to have the oppertunity to fire up an app to do some "heavy" calendar tasks Right now I'm testing three PIM-apps:
PocketInformant
Agenda One
SBSH Calendar Touch
I really like the way SBSH Calendar touch displays my tasks and let me handle them. On the other hand I don't like SBSH CT's calendar week view. Agenda One has a more sophisticated week view that I like much more.
PI is too much of a burden to use for my purpose. Although it has the best week view of all PIM apps at the moment, it is too much depending for it's use on the input of a tiny stylus.
I think I stick to the minimalistic HTC Calendar tab, and use SBSH Calendar touch for my tasks.

SSMAHO, the successor to SSMAPA. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493810
This will allow you to soft-change the Calendar link in the frontpage to whatever you want to launch. I use ThumbCal personally.
Think this is the 4th time I've posted this link in the HD2 forum by now!

Need Calendar or PIM for HD2

The HD2 calendar is terrible. I am looking for a calendar apps, either free or paid. Any recommendations? Thanks
Best one in my eyes is Thumbcal 1.4.0 Absolutely fingerfriendly. Uses the WinMo calendar in the background (so syncing, showing in hometab etc. is no problem). Handles Tasks, Appointments, extra notes for each apptmt, shows your Appointmentsgroups in different colours, skinnable and so on. In my eyes still the best one. Directly linked to the calendar entries on the manila homescreen (p.ex. with co0kies Hometab 1.6.1 when you tap on the appointments it opens thumbcal) it is absolutely comfortable and efficiently to use. Some Screenshots with the S-Black Skin are attached.

Costs: 10€ (ca. $8)

ThumbCal works fine in my HD2
http://thumbapps.com/web/pages/thumbcal/overview.php
Looks like a winner to me!!
Looks excellent to me. I will download the trial and try for 2 days demo before buying it. Thanks guys.
Try Pocket Informant
have a look at mvcal...
finger friendly, colored appointment, task management, many settings to personalize and the best - you have all your appointments (and due tasks) of the current month at a glance on the large HD2 screen
see screenshots...
One more vote for Pocket Informant. It is by far the best and most advanced PIM available.
Agenda One is fine to my HD2.
hi,
I tried the Trial of Calendar Touch on my HD2 which was really good working
everything works fine without a stylus and also uses the WinMo calendar for sync.

It's a really good app but for me the Manila calendar is quite enough
Calendar touch
I could very much recommend Calendar Touch from shsb.net as well.
very nice and very customizeable
Hi any of these calendars sync with microsoft my phone ??
How do i make it the phones default calendar i.e what registry tweaks do I need to do. Thanks
