Just want to know if there is any way to hide the call history on the main Home page.
I find it useless as it's good for the initial stage of reminding me of a missed call, but other than that it's wasted space.
I would prefer to have more space for calender contacts.
What you're asking is not easy...... You have to use manila editor, search it in this room. Unfortunately there aren't lots of better solutions, if you take my advice you 'll have to replace Manila with somethig else.
For instance, you could use a classic today screen including in it the PDC (Pocket Display Clock, see on www.freewarepocketpc.net) and if you want a calendar with wider features than the standard ones you can install TodayAgenda, it's free and has lot of display options (it basically replaces both Calendar and Task plugins with a more compact and customizable one).
You see, this is a "static" solution, that is you haven't a dynamic plugin like Manila in which you can change tabs and views using you fingers, but a simplier classic plugin with a complete agenda tool..... I don't know what you 're looking, but if you have Manila and you are looking for something else, this will be good for you....... TodayAgenda is the best for me.
See you
I posted the following to another forums site, and while there seems to be demand for what I am looking for, no one seems to know where to find it. So I thought I would post here, since I expect if this doesn't yet exist someone here might be able to make it exist in short order. There is definitely demand.

I have scoured the net and various forums and just can not seem to find what I am looking for to use on my new Verizon Touch Pro2. It's gotta be out there. I hope someone can help.
I am looking for a weather app that can interface with TF3D properly and (here comes the hard part) also offer the text of the weather forecast without launching a web browser.
This really shouldn't be that difficult to find. I can't imagine that I am the only TF3D user who isn't satisfied by a little picture of the sun and the temperature. I want words, damnit.
I used a program by Tonaya on my i760 called Weather To Go. It had the pretty little pictures and temperatures, etc., but if you clicked on a pretty picture you got the actual forecast, which it had downloaded the last time it checked to see whether to put a pretty little picture of the sun or a pretty little picture of raindrops in tomorrow's tiny patch of screen real estate.
All these weather programs are going out and grabbing a forecast from somewhere anyway. Isn't there one that will let you see it?
Thanks in advance if someone can help.
...and hourly report views
I have it in SPB MS 3.52 ( didn't try it in tf3d) but Weatherbug free gives you text forecasts, just tap the arrow next to any day summary and get forecast text.
Tap net to the text forecast and you get hourly text.
OK, I know i will get flamed, but i have searched here, ppcgeeks, and howard forums, but apparently am not using the correct phrase or tag words. Can I, and if so, how can i remove the calender and missed calls from the home screen? i have ready through a ton of threads, i just cant find an answer. Flame away, but please also answer! BTW, i'm not a noob to these devices, i have had a 6700 and 6800, custom roms, etc, and have "tweaked" my TP2 rather significantly. i am pretty close to where i want it, just want to get rid of these last 2 things, then it is a hard reset, and reinstall everything i like. please help!
I know you can get rid of the "calendar" and "missed calls" icons quite easily. But you want to completely remove the links? So for the end result, you want just the clock on your home tab? ie, you don't want to see your next appointments and missed calls at all?
To answer your question, you will have to be more specific with your description. For instance, what items do you have selected for your today screen? Are you using Manila/TouchFLO 3D, HTC Home, or a 3rd party Today plugin? One possible fix could be disabling the calendar from the Today Items menu, or if you are using Manila/TouchFLO 3D, you can customize the tabs and remove the calendar from the list. Maybe you can take a screenshot of your screen so it is easier for us to see what you are talking about.
yep, just want them off the home screen, btw ohyeahar, i am using your skin and love it, thank you very much for all of the work.
i am using touchflo3d, i've taken all of the check marks off of the items list in the today settings screen, aside from the touchflo 3d check
Ok, I see what you are saying... On the "Home" tab of TouchFLO 3D, you would just like to see the clock and nothing else.
I did a search and found this thread:

In the thread they referenced Diamond TF3D Config, by Sushilange
I searched for that and found this thread with a download link:

I downloaded the cab, installed it but it would not work on my phone
Apparently, this is for a previous version of Manila
I did some more searching and it seems that a lot of people want the same thing as you but I was unable to find a way to do it.
I am going to poke around in my registry and see if I can find a way to modify the home tab manually.
I found another thread that talks about removing the Calendar and Missed Calls:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=456474
There are some cabs on page 3 that you can try or you can read further in the thread where it talks about modifying the xml files to manually make the changes.
thank you, i will weed through and see what i can come up with.
well, the no dotted lines cab worked fine. i used the 590ad244_manila.zip file and replaced the file in windows and the calender is gone, not the missed calls. i attached the files here, thank you to [email protected] for these, i will continue to read through and see what i get.
ok, well, after some searching and fooling around, I tried editing the manila file again, but still have the missed calls text up. also, the above file only removes the calender text, and not the actual button, so if you press in the spot where the calender text was, it goes to the calender. not a huge issue, just thought i would mention it. but still not able to get rid of the 0 missed calls. my search continues, getting closer though.
I have a new Tilt 2 (my last was the Tilt) from AT&T and I have been searching for a new dialer pad with bigger buttons. Unlike the original Tilt, the buttons aren't terrible but I would like them to be a bit bigger. Once upon a time, I installed the PaulyA dialer for the Tilt and I was wondering if there was a similarly large version for the Tilt2. I have tried several that had the wrong resolution (apparently not WVGA) but I can't find one that seems to work for the Tilt2.
I found a iPod look-alike that was kinda cool (lost the link) but it wouldn't replace the stock dialer, it was a separate app that had google voice (not what I need).
I found the Insoft Phone 5 product, but it seems to have issues with Caller ID. I was also looking for something that was either free OR was available in US $.
I also found the Dark Rhodium Touch Pro 2 Dialer but the buttons are just black and do not seem to be any bigger.
I understand that the smart dialer takes up a lot of real-estate but I would gladly sacrifice a couple of entries for bigger buttons.
BTW, I did run a search with some keywords but maybe I have missed the thread. If I have, please accept my apologies in advance.
Have you looked at Iconsoft PhonEx 2.2? One of the best dialers out IMO full screen contact pic ID and full screen dialer.
Thanks! That is exactly what I wanted. Lots more features than I had expected.
Hi Guys,
After living with Manilla ever since I got my TouchPro2 (I hate HTC Sense), I decided today to go back to the original Today Screen style, with 'Pocket Digital Clock' and 'Easy Today Launcher' doing the honours as useful plugins.
What I can't seem to find (and judging by a search in these forums and the internet nor can anyone else) is a simple one line plugin that displays Unread SMS/Emails and Missed Calls Counts, either as nice little icons, or just text.
I don't want to switch to HTC Home Plugin as that's too heavy for what I need.
I had a quick look at the MSDN samples and I'm sure I could have a crack at it, but it'd take me hours to even get a rough version working.... So, does anyone have a plugin that does what I need easily, or (long shot) does anyone fancy knocking one up for me?
Thanks in advance,
-Jar.
