SPB Diary is no longer being developed and Pocketbreeze crashes after about 5 minutes of using it. I tried alarmtoday but and its close but doesnt have all the features of a real Calendar today screen plugin.
So basically I need something that can show all my appointments and tasks for the day on a screen when I turn it on and there is currently no real solution that I know of.
So what are some of you guys using? Anyone know of any calendar plugin that works with wm6.5?
Calendar Touch should work as integrates via PIM so will show in normal Calendar interface also has a nice usable gui.
Today's Aganda this is free and works GREAT. very configurable also in appearance.
need to google search
TodayAgenda_PPC as linking fails for me.
pulls in bdays from contacts also, freeing them from your "calendar".

hello,
i'm using thumbcal atm.. this is truely a great program. only weakness is that thumbcal doesn't have any today plug-in by itself, so i've been looking for a today plug-in that displays tasks and appointments.
i've tried todayagenda, calendar+, tasksplus, quicktask, quickagenda and many other programs, and the result i got is : they are linked to OUTLOOK, not Thumbcal even though i made Thumbcal default PIM program.
however default task and appointments plugin that is included in windows mobile works well with thumbcal(not calling outlook but thumbcal to add/edit materials).
yeah, so i can use default plug-ins. they're free and clean and simple. only problem is, I can't find a way to integrate to my UL or HomeScreen/Batterystatus++.
is there any help i can get? i'm looking for some kinda third party plugin that uses thumbcal to edit/add materials, or any method to integrate default appointments/tasks plugin to UL/HS++
thanks
HI,
Anyone got any ideas how to get goodlink and the TF3D calendar to sync? Have the same problem with contacts - seem Goodlink and the HTC apps use different calendars and contacts.
THanks
Hi,
AFAIK that is not possible at this point. Other apps like SPB Mobile Shell etc also do not support Goodlink.
I've tried SecondToday and have the Goodlink today plugins running in it but it doesn't refresh when new emails come in etc.
What I've done in the end is to junk TF3D and use the Goodlink today plugins and PocketAlarm (which support Goodlink).
TouchPro and JunkLink
try using SSMaPa to replace the application that gets called when you select the calendar in TF3D:

I didn't have any luck on my HTC Fuze and SSMA.
I like the TouchFlo interface so I did the workaround by adding
\Goodcalendar
\Goodemail
\GoodContacts
\GoodCompose
\GoodNews
etc
on the TouchFlo PROGRAMS tab. At least, I still have access to them from TF. I don't get notifications and I wish the calendar appt's show up on the HOME screen but I couldn't make it work. Hope someone finds a better solution.
PS -Goodlink disables my Bluetooth discoverability. Anyone figured out a way to unlock this? At least my device doesn't lock ever 30 min with this newfangled software.
I've searched here and there, far and wide until the search button wore off my screen.
I have a Sprint Touch Pro running WM6.1 and Touchflo 3D.
I'm looking for an application that will scan my contacts for birthday's and anniversaries and export them to my calendar on the correct date for the current and/or upcoming year(s).
I've found several apps that are standalone or Today plug-ins, but I don't want the additional overhead of running unnecessary applications taking up memory.
Anyone know or have such an app?
I am wondering if you have explored the contacts page on your WM 6.1 .
If you would, you should see that you are able to set birthday's and anniversaries. So WM 6.1 will update the calender.exe to show that it's a recurring event.
And if you synch with the desktop, it should show on your outlook too.
At least, this is happening for me.
Thanks for your input. I'm aware that if I sync my phone through activesync with Outlook that it will put my birthdays and anniversaries in the calendar in Outlook and on my phone, but I don't own a copy of Outlook and have no desire. I rarely connect my phone to any PC except for the occasional file transfer or software install.
thnks
ill be using that

UPPPPP Badly
I've been looking for the same thing too
Urg...this is harder than it should be. Can anyone in the same situation offer any advice?
Situation is this...
* HTC Touch Pro
* Google Apps Mail/Calendar/Tasks
* Lotus Notes w/Notes Traveler
* Other sync apps like Spb Wallet
* Windows XP
I initially had my phone syncing with ActiveSync to my laptop as a backup (contacts etc going to Outlook) and so I could sync things like my password data using Spb Wallet
Coming from Palm devices, I wasn't quite prepared for how crap ActiveSync (or Outlook) actually was. I then changed my mail to sync with Google (using IMAP) and then Contacts and Calendar syncing with Google via their fake Outlook sync setup, and that works pretty well.
Note: Now Google have push email, but I haven't tried it, and my Spb Wallet on my phone and PC are now out of sync
Today I tried Notes Traveler, which syncs my work info over-the-air, kind of like a Blackberry.
This works (I guess) but Lotus' idea of "Sync" seems to be "Nuke everything on your device and overwrite it with your Notes data"
...yep, I did back everything up...
Issues/Questions:
1) Is there any way to get rid of the default "Outlook" mail account in TouchPro 3d? Strangely I did a backup and restore when my phone went in for repair, and now it is called my domain name and has some old mail in it, but it's still not deletable
2) Notes Traveler creates a second (third!) mail account, so my work email is separate (which is great) but it nuked my calendar. Then it nuked my Google calendar, and uploaded all my work appointments to it! To make matters worse, even though mail is separate, meeting invites and responses now get sent back to my personal Google mailbox (since there is only one calendar I guess)
3) Since I'm busy/lazy at work, my work email has 554 unread messages (from the last 30 days), and it fills up at a rate of a couple of hundred a day. This means that the notification circle thingo on the front of the phone is in a permanent state of flashyness. Is there any way I can disable that for mail, and just have it alert me for SMSs etc?
4) Has anyone come up with a good solution for two different types of mail? The only option I can really think of is turning off the Google sync (maybe except for Contacts) and using the web apps...but that seems clunky and no TouchFlow 3D integration. There isn't a native WM6 app for the Google suite is there? Or for Notes? Also the screenshots on the Google help web pages seem much more usable than the screens I actually get (there are tabs across the top to switch between mail, cal etc.)
5) I really use the multi calendar feature of Google a lot, is there any way you can sync more than one calendar to the device?
6) Does anyone know if Android manages this scenario better? I'm almost ready to switch (except that no Notes Traveler for Android)
Thanks in advance for any pointers on any of the items above.
Zilch.
To delete the account you go into Activesync on the phone, then go to Menu...Options...now click and hold on the exchange server to delete it.
You can go to Settings, sounds Notifications to turn off the flashing notification. Otherwise you may need fuze tweak or advanced config.
Up until recently I was using WiMo and was very happy with the SPB diary application. In Outlook calendar I have various events categories, both standard (e.g. birthdays) and non-standard (e.g. hearings, in my case), all denoted by different colour. SPB diary imported those categories automatically and allowed me to automatically assign colours to their text. Therefore I could automatically see with a quick glance all the important stuff. I' ve been looking for a simillar app in android but no luck yet. Best one I have found yet is Jorte but it's not the same thing as you need to "manualy" change the colour of each event as oppose to changing colour by importing the category from Outlook. Currently, all Outlook sync events come off as green in various apps, HTC calendar included, without the option to change the colour.
Anyone has any build something like what I am after or has any ideas? preferably without using Google sync. Too much clouding is bad for your health methinks
