Hi,
I have the T-mobile MDA Compact III, the Dutch version, with wifi and stuff. I also have a Qtek S200 and the first thing i noticed is that the Compact III has no calculator! This may seem like a small thing, but it bugs me as i got used to using it alot with the S200...
Any plugin or whatever to get a calculator??
Oh and while i'm asking, is there a way to change those freaky pink white colors of the phone pad? I can change theme in the notmal menus but the phone pad always stays with the T-mobile color scheme... any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks,
Rudy
Hmm... interesting. Anyway, there are tons of better calculator out there. I think the.. Omega(?) has a free calculator software.. and if you do a search on www.freewareppc.com, they ought to have a few .. much advance ones too.
Tons of phonepad available in this forum with iPhone wannabe to.. Vista look-alike. Easiest way to get rid of T-mobile stuff is to go Wiki (under WM5 tweak) to get rid of it and use the default.
Had the same problem.
There IS an calculator, only theres no shortcut made by TM
In the folder WINDOWS\calc.exe
there u got to be. ive made an shortcut to it with SPB Pocket plus.
and for the ugly t-mobile color, just install an skin for it. and do a soft reset.
excuse my bad english
Try tapping Start/ Organiser a new window will open desplaying icons for Claculator, Calendar, Notes and Tasks - Strange place to bury the calculator but it is there - Mike
when installing a skin for the phone pad, does it need to be unlocked first or something... and kindof a noob question, but will i lose my warranty?? Where can I download like legal themes for the PDA??
BTW, i found the calc just where you said it would be mike, And i linked it to my right software button!
Forget the CALC from Windows. Try searching for eval. Nice and free Calculator...
You will find it here

Hi
Recently upgraded my XDA Orbit to WM6 using one of the ROMs from TUPISDIN ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314675 )and all is well apart from an annoying missing feature:
When creating a new SMS and typing in the name of the recipient, previously it used to suggest names from my contacts after 2 characters & more. This now does not do this and I have to select to add a recipient! Is this just mine or does this happen on all WM6 installs?
My smart dialing works fine so it really is just SMS.
Hope someone can suggest ideas as this is a small but irritating feature

Hi there DMan, well the answer you are looking for is within keyboard options you have changed you "suggest word(s) after * letters" increased to more than 3, ruduce this option back to 2 and contacts will display again when typing in the recipient.
Errr...... OK, I am DMan, I found the answer after playing around for quite a while, then couldnt see how to delete this thread! Sad I know but at least I have helped someone, even if it is me
Hey guys, anyway to replace the calander that touchflo redirects you to? So for example when you click on the home screen appointment, it takes you to WM calander, I want to to go to thumbcal.
Thanks.
Also anyway to change the opera version that launches from touchflo internet tab?
I want 9.7 to come instead of 9.5.
Thanks.
That's exactly what I want 2....
But in my case, i want to use Pocket Informant as default calendar...
Does someone know a solution or reg edit to change the program that will use while making an apointment?
thanks in advance!
Ranney
Bump please? I found SMOpa or something, but it cant replace the calender. Thanks.
Man - I ALMOST like the Tf3d2 calendar. I still use MTP to run PocketBreeze in a tab, but if the calendar had
1) More info per item without opening it - maybe even a click once to expand to show all info and description, twice to open in MS Calendar...
2) Week view
3) Color Categories, or another way of visualising
4) Include tasks on the day page
...I'd be using it exclusively
anyone knows how to link it to Pocket Informant please??
Bump.. I too use Thumcal.... I like tf3d calendar for viewing info... but want to open thumbcal to make new appointments etc..
I checked in the hkeylm-software-htc-manilla-item 5 is the calendar
but no clear way to change where it directs you....
^^^^ THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT TO DO!!
The most I can do is when you click the no appointment thing on homescreen it will take you to thumbcal, BUT if you have an appointment it will open it in Windows Mobil calendar!!
Anyone know if you can skin the windows mobile calendar?
Yes I know what to do.
Start complaining at HTC about this. TouchFlo doesn't use the registry to ask for the default (calendar) application. TouchFlo is hard programmed to use the Windows software, in this case the calendar.
To get this changed in the way it should work..... HTC has to do the work!
maybe we can use vjbrisk I'll have a look at it later!
Has anyone had any success?
Id do this myself if I had a clue...but I dont. Any gurus out there have any ideas? Or is this simply not possible?
bump
I hate to beat a dead horse, but has anyone figured this out? It seems like this would be a bigger, yet simple fix than most of the other tweaks out there already. any help towards such a tweak would be greatly appreciated.

like you,i hate this calendar as well,it's very rustic design,i want to remove it from the Today desktop,replace it with other better-looking calendar,but holy ****,after lots of research,the conclusion is that this calendar is built within Touchflo3d scripts (called inbedded),even tweaking registry cannot remove it!
So forget this tempt. give up. i am trying to see other better Today program to replace this goddamned touchflo3d.
I received my new Tilt 2 over the weekend and am in the process of setting it up to my liking. I have used Pocket Informant on my previous HTC devices and want to use it on the new tilt. How can I assign it to the default calendar and contacts on the lower slide of the Touch Flo 3D screen?
I mostly lurk and read the info and comments and have gained a lot of knowledge from this site and appreciate any/all suggestions of help from the members.
Thanks, Stoney.
Nobody here has any ideas...
...on how to change the slider programs to add on programs.
Seems the TP2 (stock roms, touch flo enabled) uses some new contact manager app?
So is there a way to make manila use the gold old WM6 contacts instead of the one it uses by default?
Please, Im not the only person looking for this.
I have been looking in HKLM-software-htc-manila and cant find anything yet. but there surely is a way to point the manila to the older type contacts app?
thanks
PS this is for us people who use this more business setting I guess. (or are old like me and dont like change?) Anyway, I have contacts grouped by Company, which is handy as hell & I dont need facebook. Please help us.
My solution would be that you start to make a call, hit green call button, hit the "contacts" soft button or whatever at the bottom, which would open the older type contacts, just like you had clicked on Start-All programs-contacts.
Thanks in Advance for any help or hints...
I have a real problem with the contact manager that this phone offers, i had to remap the button to bring the up other version , but still sucks for business use..so i loaded Pocket informant which helps but with out aD pad it is not as easy to use...got to find a solution for this, love the phone but one handed usage is very important and may drive me back to my old Tilt
