birthday reminder? - Touch HD Themes and Apps

I don't use today screen, i like TF3D. But I cannot find a birthday reminder for TF3D, with alarm or at least to show the birthday of the day in TF3D??

I double that! It would be great to have a new tab on TF3D that shows upcoming birthdays. Or maybe a display of the next upcoming birthday on the Home screen when I "flip up" to make the clock disappear.

Same answer that is usually given to this question.
Install SecondToday and then somthing like Spb Diary. Works a treat!!

There are 3rd part programs (shareware) like Megasoft2000 PocketBirthday or
Xoddy VBirthday Deluxe which will do the trick and raise their own reminders.

I'm using Manila Birthday, works very good on my Blackstone

Try changing the flags to 5
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\Calendar]
"Flags"=dword:5
many thanks dude! that worked a treat!!!

Best Calendar for Touch HD

I know theres other threads on best calendars for other phones, but whats the best one for touch HD?
If you've tried a few your opinion will be greater
Being a recent palm convert, I'd be interested to know what ex Palm users are using, as I find the stock outlook calendar clunky and inefficient.
ThumbCal
Try a search for ThumbCal. It's very finger friendly and has all the Outlook options plus combines your tasks into the calendar too.
It's not freeware but you do a get a trial period after which you can decide whether it's for you.
+1 forThumbCal
Nearly finished my trial period, so I would be interested to learn about the competition before I splashed my cash.
+1 ThumbCal. Its just awesome
also here thumbcal, very finger friendly
ThumbCal
ThumbCal the best one
is compatible with the "automatic" sound mode like original calendar? example: if i set a riunion for t 8:00 am...at the 8:00 am the phone go to vibrate mode automatically end turn to ring mode at the end

did you thumbcal people try agenda one or the other one that starts with t? and why did u choose your calendar over the others.
Agenda One looks very much like Pocket Informant. PI isn't really suited to thumb use yet, if they did, I would stick with that (been using it for years).
I've added ThumbCal along side PI and it is much more touch friendly. It has flaws, like the month view doesn't really give any useful information, but hopefully this will be addressed soon.
Thumbcal is very very slow at the opening...
After that : a pleasure tu use, but don't close it
also voting for thumbcal
...0.51 is freeware !!!
not sooo many functions as actual version but fits perfectly for (my) normal needs!
in german and english, very simple to use and works great with outlook and TF3D
couldn´t find it here so uploaded it for you:
KEEP IN MIND!
this is a VERY simple version of this great calendar app... you can´t compare this version in any way to actual versions (speed, functions, etc.)
Don't use Calendar apps that much so normally live with the supplied standard. However Thumbcal is so good to use that I will be buying. The ease of "thumb" use shows what can be achieved with WinMob and what other applications should aim for.
The only thing this is missing is different colours, or maybe icons for different types of appointments.
I have used the full featured Super Calendar for a while, but I like the simplified layout and finger navigation of ThumbCal.

I would disagree with AndyCr on this. I use PI without a stylus and its fine on the HD. If you use touchpal to write then you can use PI either in touch mode or in "normal mode" without a stylus.

Anybobody doesn't have problem when starting Thumbcal ?
For me it takes more than half a minute.
Less than 10 secs for me; but probably an app that, once opened, you would keep running in the background anyway?
Timed it at 4 seconds. That is acceptable.
I've been trialing a few of the calendars here's my quick first impressions of each:
Pocket Informant 8 :
cool features: can turn on selection or flick scrolling, icons, dynamic screen position bar on day view, goto today, preview of position. week/goal planner! looks pretty
Sucky things: no year view. can't drag like in touchflo. can't flick scroll sideways to change months days etc.
Agendus 3: No flick scrolling in contacts.. ugly.
can view year quarter.
Agenda one:.. ok. day view not as good as PI
Thumbcal: flicking to change months/years. looks pretty.
month view pretty useless. no year view. Flicking doesn't use flick physics. no contacts.
Calendar touch: to many touches to goto today. no year view. no contacts. almost touch friendly.
Agenda Fusion:
cool features: year view,
Sucky things: looks kinda ugly. contacts not as good as PI
none of them really do it for me. Pocket informant has most of the features that palm has. Considering the extra power of ppc, its a dissapointing compromize.
Can THumbcal be set as the default calender for TF3d? As in, on my calendar tab? or if I click the calendar link on the home page it will launch Thumbcal instead of stock calendar? Thanks!

G-Alarm problem

I love this G-alarm But how can i see them at X1 panels.
I have install them works good but i dont see them at panels, i see only time tab from my today settings :?
I hope some one can help
Sry for my bad language cause i didnt learn, my bad
I would also like to know if there's a way to make G-alarm the default alarm app in Windows Mobile, so that it will show the alarm icon next to the watch in Today scrren and in the panels. And to start G-alarm when I try to change my alarm in the SPB Panel for example...
In older TF3D-versions (before Landscape) i activated the option in G-Alarm for integration in TF3D and it was loaded by tapping the "next-alarm-time" shown right below the flip clock on TF3D start-tab.
Since i use YYYYY's R2A-Rom it doesn't work, nothing change after activating this option. But adding the App to startmenu's shortcuts works for me, cause i'm not often seeing the start-tab
Ty a lot for help. I will wait next version of g-alarm

Tasks in Homescreen

Hi everybody,
I have a question for you all, is it possible to put tasks beneath agenda and missed calls in TF3D2?
I used it all the time on my TyTnII (Vario III) and I was wondering if I could do the same on my Vario5.
I looked it up in settings and everywhere but could'nt find it
i am interested too
Hey,
I am still waiting for my TP2 to arrive but with my Diamond I used second today (you can search for that). Its a great little application that gives you the best of the 2 worlds, the TF3D interface, and the old today screen which you can see everything on.
I guess give it a try and let us know if it works on TP2
what i would want is an icon in the tf3d of tasks (like mails, weather, market... icons)
is it posible?
(sorry of my english)
Still no answer, can you send a link of second today or post a screenshot?
Cause in my imagination it would look pretty messy and I like my stuff organized and neat

PLEASE is there a small monthly calendar display???

Is there ANY where I can find a way to display a small calendar of the month on the TODAY screen??
I see small analog clocks by the hundreds. But not ONE little 31 day calendar anywhere.
It would be great to have an analog clock AND the month displayed maybe with holidays highlighted,
and a click-able appointment maker when you 'touch' the day.
Verizon HTC Touch Pro 2 WinMo ver. 6.1
Thank U (x) 100 for any help!
Why would this be necessary when we already have the calendar tab?
Use Outlook to insert your country's public hoildays.
If you want quick access to this tab, just tap on the "Calendar" link under "Call History" on your home tab. Or you can just position the calendar tab as one of the first 5 tabs so that you can just tap on it on the slider bar.
I am too lazy to have to press a tab to do that.
That and I want to be able to see both the calendar
and other screen items at the same time.
I COULD make a background pic that shows a 'static' month but...
gee... it's a computer... I'm not smart enough to program a cool
dynamic calendar myself though.
RLCalendar will do what you want and is freeware.
It will display a calendar is all no holidays highlighted and no clicking on it for anything but it will show a monthly calendar.

RLCalendar will only work with the old Today screen of WM 5-6.1 it won't work for WM6.5 after installing the cab you have to go to settings>today and turn it on and configure how big or small you want it.

Yep. I got that; WM 6.1 on this Verizon TP2.
When I open Today->Programs I see no rl-anything, rlToday or rlCalendar.
But when I open Today->Settings->System->Remove Programs, they are
displayed and listed in there:
"rotlaus Software rlToday" & "rlSoft rlCalendar" are in the 'list' of removable programs.
However when I go to Today->Settings->Personal->Today->Items and look at all the items I can turn on...
I see no items on the list that read rlToday or Today or rlCalendar or rlSoft or anything like these programs.
Just the normal items like TouchFLO 3D, Messaging, Device Lock, etc. etc.
I appreciate the help you are trying to give. I think I've finally found a device that validates
my dumb as a rock persona.
Hmm weird, I haven't tried it with WM 6.5 since I use SPB Mobile Shell and it has a nice calendar widget. Might give it a shot this weekend for you and see if I can get RLCalendar to work.

Don't do. I appreciate the thought and effort. But don't just for me please.
I have loaded a number of 'today' add-ins ( and uninstalled them ) when
they screw with my display res. or pixel widths or something.
Not worth it.
I downloaded the 'trial' SPB Shell program and calendar and I will play with that
thank you.
Maybe somebody else has fought this rlProgram wheel and will add feedback.
Thx again.
