ROM for Heavy use of Calendar - HTC Excalibur

After searching over and over i couldn't find a ROM that fits my purposes.
I need a ROM like the one on attach, that could use the whole screen for the appointments. I need to see all the time the things i have to do.
I hope you can give your opinions.
regards

That Looks like the imq cab file thats part of the iphone fish theme, ive never seen the calendar tho.. part of it.

It´s just Facade
Hi there,
your screenshot shows the prog "sbsh facade".It´s a homescreen replacement. Just google. I think there´s no ROM with Facade, cause it´s commercial.

iPhone CAB

For Those Who Wanted An iPhone ROM, Heres A CAB That Should Do Most Of What You Want.
Here It Is iPhone.cab
It Includes:-
Grumps - iPhone App
inphyy - iPhone App Configurer
A_C - Slide2UnLock
larna - iContacts
xelashiu - iPhone Dialer Skin
And A Welcomehead BMP That I Found On The Forum.
Hope It's Ok Not Fully Tested It Yet, Please Leave Feedback.

Gooooood question!
I'd like to take look, just fer ****s & giggles ye know? don't wanna screw up my current install now. I'm in far too happy a place, ROM wise
Already tried it out...but it is useless for me...respons...like 3-5 sec after tapping a button...5mb less free RAM...this is too much for me..
Regards,
Primoz
All I can say is that the Dialer will not work correctly on 8252 with CIN 3.5.2. There are some alignment issues with numbers.
Also it's impossible to enter the settings for the skin and PHONE icon not linked correctly.
Best Regards
Why is this in the WM6 forum? Does the CAB only work on WM6?
It probably doesn't belong in this topic, but why don't we try and change that?
Would there be interest in making a WM6 ROM that looks and acts almost like an iPhone? I can see there being some disadvantages and no doubt a lot of people will miss the today screen, but there might be a few people interested none the less.
Maybe it would be better to keep it as an "iPhone CAB" with everything on it, so that users can try it and remove it quite easy?
What other programs would we need in the ROM do you think?
I'm thinking it would be good to try and embed Piscel Browser, or similar at least, so that you have the fancy finger scrolling on websites.
Maybe we could add the ringtones as well....

Why not ! Could be fun to try at least, providing performance didnt render it unusable.
@Pc78
To Deal With The Response Times, Select Settings And You Should Be At The Configurator App, You Can Change The Response Times With This App.
@.VIBE
It Should Uninstall Correctly, As That Option Was Selected With WinCE CAB Manager
@dusank
Strange The Phone Link Works Fine On My Phone, Maybe Try It Again After A Soft Reset.
Cheers
Follow The Links That Are Posted In The First Post, For Information On How To Configure The Individual Apps.
Cheers
Does it include the filedialogchanger made by ??? which is posted with iConfig?
and could you write which versions of the apps in the .cab?
sorry, but im a little lazy atm so i havent downloaded it..
Problems with Dialer
This is my first post, can you put xelashiu WM6 version of the dialer in the cab file. because of the problems with key pad numbers lining up, otherwise great app Many Thanks
Oange SPVM3100
LVSW 3.30.2.1
GREAT CAB
Great cab, I was just looking forward to install a cab like these, but has only problem with the dialer, I hope can be fix. Thank you for the great work.
This CAB is very nice, but it was eaier to configure an iPhone theme using WAD with all the godies. Plus, you can put the icons wherever you want and add or delete them.
Unfortunately WAD is buggy and creates a soft reset from time to time. Other than that it's a nice app to play with!
I really like the start for this app... iContact is my favorite cause its a Stylusless UI. Now if everything else is ported it would be awesome!!! The dialer is a good start too but really needs work with simplifying it. It doesn't need to be that complicated and the look can be polished too. I'm willing to work on it with the developer if you need more of my feedback. I'm an interface designer by trade so please use me
I AM WILLING TO PAY IF SOMEONE WERE TO MAKE THE ENTIRE iPHONE OS AS A CAB OR WM6 REPLACEMENT!
Anyone else?
I'm a software developer with a fresh mind straight from Uni...so if anyone wants to team up let me know and I'd be happy to start on this project.
Slither I'm up for it!
I'll design the interfaces... You make them work!
Deal or No Deal?
Oh btw which direction would you like to go Cook our own ROM or CAB?
Deal
I like the CAB direction...btw I'm working full time so i'll dedicate time for the project mainly in the evenings and whenever I get time during work. PM me for design thoughts you have.
Cheers.
slither & and spidey
im excited to see what you guys will produce...
Sweeeeeettt!

Need a good schedule/task/appointment app

Anyone know something good, i want to be able to see it on the today screen or if not its ok too. As long as it shows me the time, date, and appointment. Something like i saw somewhere on this board, i've heard of facade but is there anything else?
link to the image -
if its not viewable this is the direct link: http://img519.imageshack.us/my.php?image=40944433yu3.png
so something like that is good, any suggestions? Thanks, preferably something free.
I typically use the appointment program that comes with the phone. The stock one...
Anyways here ones I have used before...
eXtreme Agenda CLICK HERE THIS ONE IS AMAZING THOUGH YOU WILL LIKE IT...
One Agenda CLICK HERE THIS IS ANOTHER ONE I FOUND WHICH IS NOT BAD AT ALL...
See which one you like... Try both out and let me know which one you like...
@jdoggraz
You mean the stock one with 6.1 sliding panels??
Either way, does it show the TASKS on today screen? If not, how do u manage it?
I use Papyrus, but it doesnt have a today plugin
Original Poster, Facade is good, and if u can tweak it, u can show just what you need. I was a huge fan, until the sliding panels came along...
Cheers
Quick answer, you cant have that kind of plugin on 6.1
You only can on 6.0 or below
Yeah thought so too
Facade and other today screen plugin people might be cursing microsoft for bringing up such a panel thing..
That said, how come no one ever designed anything that can display tasks on a sliding panel...
Wishful thinking...

[Q] Is there some kickass Today screen?

You may want post what you've tried already so the suggestions that come through won't be plugins that you've already written off.
I'm currently in the process of testing SPB 3.0.1. Still not sure if I like it enough to replace TF3D as it doesn't allow total integration with my other apps...Resco contacts, sms chat.
I guess you are right.
For starters, I have installed SPB 3 and WM7 black skin..it is very good..not the best but good, I like it
So far I have tried:
×Throttle launch (not good, graphics were blurry, guess it is more for VGA , but could be OK for VGA device)
×PocketPlus (too much stuff, didnt like it)
×HTC Home (I dunno why, but I guess this plugin did something bad to my phone, it acted weirdly, although it provided informaton I wanted, I did a painful Hard Reset and after that everything was OK)
×SPB 2 (I used this for very long time, but I got bored from the graphics and I liked and hated Now screen at the same time )
×PointUI2 (this was freaking awesome, very smooth graphics, but I lack WVGA skins and applets, good skins were VGA only and I couldnt switch to my today screen, which I do sometimes to check how much have I called already)
×rlToday (this one could be great, but It was very small on my screen, I could hardly see the clock )
×this is all I remember what I have tried
Now I am using:
SPB 3
HomeScreen++ (I use this only as a Call Timer, but would like to use it wider, but dunno how , does someone have an advice how to get a MAX out of this prog?)
And I have Spb Wireless monitor and Spb Backup on my todayscreen.
Thats it. So I guess I have tried a lot, but still am not absolutely satisfied.
What I really wish for is something like Omnia today screen..Ow how I would like to drag and drop widgets...I know FEWidgets can do this but I dont like how it looks...
And what I would like to have mostly is somekind of desktop with Icons and stuff...ust like a normal PC....
Thx for replies guys.

how do you know which version is the right one?
are there any pics of the software in action somewhere?
Well it sounds like you've tried just about everything lol! You didn't mention Wisbar Advance Desktop I see. This is the closest thing I've found where you can have the look and feel of your desktop PC.
Check out Mallmans Vista Theme here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468153&highlight=Vista+Theme < Check out his site for more themes here > www.swampthing.net
Ow
You see, as I said I didn't remember
I tried WAD already, but again, some things are not to my liking.
I guess I am very demanding
thanks for your helps guys.
I guess I will stick with SPB 3 for some time.
Although Id like to make my own theme but dunno how.
I made a thread about this, hope someone will throw some letters in it
Thanks.

Add some stuff in manila3d todayscreen??

Hello,
just got my tp2 and had before a kaiser. I tryed a serval of rom's with and without that manila plugin and at least i stayed with the regular todayscreen cause it was easy for me to add stuff to the today scree like a messenger so i can see how many people are onine and whatever....
now i wana try to stay with that manila screen, but i'm realy pissed by the today screen, cause i don't know how to add more then just the clock, schedule and missing calls ... quite boring...
so please, can somebody tell me if its posible to add more? i was already looking around, but i coudn't find anything. maybe somebody is having a link for me?
thank you!
Please read the forum before posting. It's in the top sticky in this section. App is called Manilla Today.

Eyh m8, I did not make this thread, but I looked for manilla Today. Can't find it. There was something like manilla startmenu, to get the old menu back, but that isn't what he is asking for.
I agree with you people should search and read the stickies before posting, but can't find it myself either now.
Can you please provide a link? THanks!
Did find something with the search funtion, but don't think it does what Tabsco is asking for?
i also just found the sticky to change back to the regular screen, but i wanna try to keep on using the hole manila thing, i just want to add more things (todo-list, messanger, etc.) to the manila today screen.
Here you go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508102\
It will replace one of your TF3D tabs and use that like a normal Today screen in WM. Some people like the convenience of having SPB Mobile Shell run on that pane and others like to use it with Pocketbreeze for quick glance information. I'm hoping that we get a port of Sense UI to the TP2 soon.
ok, thanks! i'll check that link soon ... but out of ur mesaage it seems so that it not yet posible to to make manila screen more comfortable (didn't took real look to the link yet)
i'll just check ur suggestion on monday. i hopefully find something with a better look then the regular wm todayscreen.

Recomendations?

Ok i tried ricky rose rom, dang thing keeps randomly shutting off and i have to use a power cord to restart the phone so here is my question.
anyone know of a simple rom that allows for texting, mms, sms, good camera options, and chome settings? would like it to also do bluetooth well. other then that i want a very simple vanilla rom.
thanks cause i dont have time to try all of them so any points in the right direction would help alot.
There really isn't that many to try the best bet is to set a day and try them all find the ROM that suites your needs.
Regards resets that will be your battery "based on that the only other users in thread with same problem was battery"
If i was to recommend a ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5316523&postcount=2
Thanks ill try that one i tried one of rick remakes of a 6.1 but didnt like some of the homescreen bars. have any idea how to edit them? i would like to remove from say the message bar the email stuff and/or remake a bar to show only messages, mms, missed calls and voice mail with the counters when its minimized if i could figure that out i would have a minimal screen and would suit me perfectly.
yah i was thinking it might be battery to gona find out by buying a new bigger battery off ebay
If looking for a battery find the simplo 1550 they aren't cheap but will provide days of joy and last far longer than any other generic battery.
I'm very minimal myslef but never found an issue with messaging as all on one bar in Kavana Ricky Remade then i only have programs/my favs and settings panel keeps RAM free, but then i use SmartToolKit and folders to make it easy "mind you it's been more pimped so the gf doesn't ask silly q's of how to work it"
lol ill keep a eye out on that battery is it a big battery or just a larger amp one? i did have troubles with smarttool once so dont like it all i need is celetask and chome just wish chome would allow me to edit some of the bars in my case id love the clock on main screen as main bar with messages displayed in it for normal txt messages where i click the clock and it takes me to inbox ... would be nice to also have the missed calls counter there to...
btw any idea of other java options can be setup? i would prefer java thats on my old behold instead of the one here, it seems the one here has a input error with a program i use for my check book, worked flawless on my behold but now with this java it adds a 0 for some dam reason...

regarding the panels , check out the chome configurator thread on the sticky, theres also threads about custom panels and stuff. Search.
but like Stylez mentioned, Rickwyatt's V24 vanilla with a pagepool mod was my fave for a long time, and I also recommend oOkBa's 6.5 rom , to me it was a very good rom, I used it for the last 6 months that I had my dash.
do you know of any place that sells that battery i did a quick search but came up with nothing so far...
