I like s2u2 but it has been giving me issues with klaxon. Klaxon sometimes shows up but sometimes it doesn't. I needed some idea of something that has a cool look like s2u2 that will come up when my phone goes to sleep. I want it to have the clock and date and allow me to have a wallpaper for it for both landscape and normal like s2u2 has.
If it weren't for the issue I am having with it and my alarm, I'd keep it. Just needs to be simple. Is s2u ok? or is s2u2 better?
Any suggestions would be great.
I have looked at a couple others and all seem to have problems with the alarms showing up. I need one that will work with klaxon.
Please post in Application specific thread
(Eg ask both the s2u and s2u2 guys if they can get their stuff to work with Klaxon)

I have an 8525 and love it, i just put the WM6 rom on a few days ago but feel that there is something missing. I was wondering if there was a simple freeware program out there that gave the 8525 profiles. I had a 2125 and it would change the phone to a silent mode when i had a meeting set up in out look, i miss this feature and hope someone out there knows of a program.
HTC HOME has a profile tab and more:

profiles of 8525
thanks the program works good, it is a little too much on the display of the phone though. Does anyone know if there is a way to remove some of the features or add other ones to this plugin, i got the HHC customizer and it does not allow for the changes that i would like to make.. I am open for sugestions
As of yet you can not change anything in the HTC Home except its looks and number of tabs. There is no way how to shrink it or how to add more functionality.
It's not freeware (costs 15.00 buckazoids) but I like it... SBSH PPhoneWeaver
Actually I typically just hold the Comm Manager Button to put the device into Vibrate mode myself..
I like SPB Phone Suite. It has most of the stuff the WM6 is missing (at least for me). Unfortunately, it's $20.
I use Phone alarm which works really well.
Is there a ROM that has a profile feature? I am kinda new to this and am not sure what is really out there.
i like profiles from winmobileapps.
I currently use the HTC Home Plug and am loolking for something else, anyone have some examples of clocks they use on their homescreens? I would like to see them and please post the cabs if you have them. I would prefer a nice Digital like the Home Plugin but without all the tabs and stuff. thanks.
Cheers!!!
I am using the Samsung clock...for the same reasons you are looking for an alternative to HTC Home. This one can be customized in a few ways - black digital, white digital, analog etc. Here's the cab if you want to check it out...
Cheers.
I really like Samsung Time's look on Today but it does seem to slow my Hermes down apppreciably. Someone on here mentioned it having a memory leak but I don't know if that's true.
I tried rlToday but it's more than I need tbh, I was just after a clock really.
There are a lot of freeware Today clocks all over t'internet though. Anyone have one they want to sing the praises of?
you can get a lot of ideas from THIS THREAD. There are some really nice home screens there and I'm sure the members would be more than happy to answer any questions you have about the apps they're using. If you're willing to purchase an app, check out Spb Pocket Plus 4, Spb Mobile Shell, and actually almost all Spb Apps. Good Luck
samsung clock
I installed the samsung clock
but how do you make it a 12 hour clock instead of a 24 hour one?
I believe S2U2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412418) is an awesome application and it's a shame A_C isn't actively trying to make it work better with smartphones, as well. So, I decided to take the last version that still works okay (for us) and prepackage all the required settings to make it work right and look like the screenshots below.
You'll notice the weather icon at the bottom. It's updated from my miniweather application and the next release of miniweather (very soon) will have builtin support to update the weather information on S2U2's display. Keep in mind that this application has be launched manually in order to lock your phone, so it's best to use with SmartToolkit where you can assign a hotkey to launch s2u2.exe (I personally use the Spacebar with a 200ms delay).
Another way to launch is to reassign a different key, such as the tzones key, by editing the appropriate shortcut in the \windows directory, to launch s2u2.exe.
Anyway, enough blabber, here's the cab.... Please test and let me know how it works
seems to take high memory resource, so i have to kill the app after unlocking...anyway great works...
Yeah you're right... it takes about 6 megs the way I set it up. Which is a lot for an Excalibur, but not really an issue on my Blackjack with 128Mb of RAM, hehe.
Anyway, if you remove the wallpaper.gif from the gfx\ folder and maybe either use a static wallpaper or NO wallpaper, the memory usage should go down A LOT.

Haha yah well thanks for putting this together for us man...
Also if I would like to remove the weather from showing up how do I do that because I think that is eating a lot of memory too...
Also, sorry about all these questions but is there any way to have this autostart when you restart the phone, like have it autostart like a process?
You have to edit the registry to do that, but trust me, it doesnt eat up RAM at all. Anyway, go to HKCU\Software\A_C\S2u2\ and find ShowWeather and set it to 00. If you want it off the screen, just delete the "UserWeather" key.
How can we get this app to show weather for other user weather apps? lets say showaco's or outerdepth's weather apps? I have the ShowWeather key set to "5" and i have the UserWeather key as well, but theres no values in the UserWeather key and i dont see anything on my S2U2 screen with the weather on it
You talk to showaco or outderdepth and have them add one or two lines to their weather script, to update the "Userweather" key in the registry

Ahhh .. i see....thats not too hard....but what about the weather icon...can that be done as well or just the actual weather temp?
The weather icon gets updated to the current conditions, of course. The string below it can be whatever you want it to be

well i see that there's a gfx/weather folder, but i don't see how or where it's linked in the s2u2 registry . i mean i see from your .cab that the user weather shows C|34|Fair 57F ...so your saying that since it says "Fair" it know what icon to use? and secondly i saw in your pics where it has your city "Las Vegas", yet i dont see that anywhere in the reg entries in the S2U2 keys....
Hmm I love the clean look. I just don't know if I want another screen to access my homescreen? I will have to do some more research on slide to unlock 2.
I kinda of want to read some feedback.

If your read the FAQ in the original S2U2 thread, you will understand how it works. "C" means "custom icons". The 34 is the file it will display "34.png" and Fair 57 is just... that.... Mine says Vegas because I'm in Vegas. I removed the Las Vegas wording from the cab, as it's irrelevant

Well it's more like a replacement lock screen for the usual lock screen of the smartphone. With this you just push the right directional key to unlock, instead of turning the phone one, pushing the unlock softkey and then the "*" key, which is a major PITA and it always annoyed me about smartphone. PLUS you get a cool info screen that you can look at without unlocking the phone!
its working great, i cant change any of the settings tho...
would it be possible to control the slide with the joggr?
nice have to check this out when i get the wife's blackjack II
this is great tht you took the time to get this to work in d dash. i have a question ,my appoinments are not showing, the weather icon is not updating and have no idea how to activate the locking and unlocking sound.
Guys, in order to set any of the settings you need to either get SOTI Pocket controller or MyMobiler. Or, edit the registry directly with the help of FAQ shown in the main application thread
yeah, i have mymobiler and follow all the proper procedure in faq but still not showing the updated weather icon or appoinments so on
Hey guys,
been looking around about customising my Touch HD but a little unsure if a different theme can help me here, I really like the current theme I have; which is just default with some extra taskbar icons; simple but effective!
Thing is I want to add notes or reminders or something to the today screen, so I can view things at a glance without having to add them to the calendar, things like a reminder to pick up some beers on the way home, or a reminder to go post some letters or even a shopping list! Though I'm pretty sure I saw an app somewhere around that was called shopping list, would ideally like to be able to dismiss reminders etc by touching them then confirming or something similar, so I can check stuff off as I've done it easily..... at the moment I only have Call history and Calendar on the today screen; anyone know of a way to edit what is displayed on the today screen?
EDIT: I just realised this makes me sound a complete moron lol, I mean being able to add things to the TF3D today screen, otherwise i'd just use the winmo version, however I really like the touchflo interface just wish there was more customisation available!
Also if I download an iphone theme (just to confuse the mac fanboys at uni...) can I easily switch between that and my current theme after a soft reset or something? Or does it involve me editing it via the activesync?
Hope someone can help!
It might be better for you to install something like second today or touchflo detacher.. that way you can switch between touchflo and your iphone theme at the touch of a button..
or you can use the second today to put all the information you want on the winmo today screen.. the screen real estate on the HD is amazing.. and then map your iphone theme to another program and have all three hotswapping on the touch of a button.
Personally I think part of the beauty of touchflo is the lack of clutter on each tab.. adding too much to the homescreen defeats the object.

Agreed. I use 2ndToday & PocketBreeze, activated by the left soft key on the TF3D home page.
hmmm did want to just have it all there to be seen as soon as I turned on the phone, tho after reading more extensively around the internet I see it's just not possible at the moment. However I'll hold out hope that one day it'll be possible!
Might try that 2nd today screen thing, might be a bit of a pain to have to flip between them but hey... needs must. Might also look into properly customizing it to look snazzy as I've seen a lot of peoples today screens look rather nice!
In practice it's not a pain... it's a touch screen so it becomes habit to touch the button or slide the slider as you pick up your phone in one motion.
I did have a go with slide2unlock but it didnt seem to work properly, might have to play with it some more.
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
