I recently flashed my 2i with the new o2 rom.. all went well loving the new rom!
however, ive noticed the time/date display is different (top today plugin):

the new one doesnt show the time!
only thing i can think of is I installed the corporate version...
can anyone tell me how to get the time back there?
thanks
I'm afraid I have no idea - but could I ask, what plugin are you using to get your tcp data? (network throughput etc)
Vijay
it's a program called IP Dashboard.
very handy piece of kit, it auto changes depending on what connection is being used: usb/bluetooth/phone/gprs/wifi etc
O2 Active installs its own Time/Date Today plugin which is different to the standard one that you received with the Corporate install.
If when you had the o2 stuff installed you ever looked at your Today options you should have noticed there were two clocks...the stock one, and the o2 active version.
I'm sure there are plenty of utilities and plugins you can get to display the time as well as the date to appear - though why you'd want to when you've also got both on the taskbar is beyond me :? :wink:
Cheers

i just like it there cause its easy to see in the morning lol.. its a bit bigger...
i dont really know why i have the date in my taskbar.. never look at it :/
i havnt found any plugins that *just* show the time, they all go way overboard
*wonders if anyone has the o2 cab handy*
i dont really know why i have the date in my taskbar.. never look at it :/

Er, I do. I got my XDA2i from o2 Insurance (when a fat bastard ran into me and smashed my XDA2 screen in me pocket - twat!) and it's one of the main things (one of those annoying little niggles) that I'm missing. It's handy when you've got the machine turned off, you want to just check the time and you don't want to enter the password just to get it - every other mobile phone user on the planet has that abilty. Also, when you're doing something on the XDA2i and you want to check the time, I don't fancy having to Start / Today, just to get back to the Main Screen just to check out the time - before I just glanced to the Taskbar.
Any ideas how to get this back on the screen? There's no option I can find in Settings...

I know this is a bit of an odd question, but is there a way to have two different today screens on the Tilt, one for when the keyboard is closed and one for when its open?
I want this because i dont like having to scroll down on the little scroll bar to access the programs below when the key board is open.

is there a program or a setting that could do this?
And to refrain from posting 2 threads, is there a way to schedule your phones ring volume? like every week day from Time A to time B its vibrate and the rest its not?
I think the answer is yes, and yes.
I'm pretty sure the phone uses different pic files when changing resolution upon opening the Tilt. I don't know of a program to set it but I bet there is one. I'm surprised no one has helped on that yet. Hang in there.
There are several programs to set the phone volume at a schedule. This is called a "phone profile". PocketZen Phone and SPB Phone Suite are two examples.
Try a search, see my sig fo link. Good luck.
If you use Resco Picture Viewer and set one picture as a wallpaper when on portrait mode, and then another when you're on landscape mode, you'll get two different wallpapers.
If anyone knows of another method I would like to know aswell.
Cheers
Ok pizzaguy wants 2 diferant screens on slide open and closed. Not only change the wallpaper (background). Well pizzaguy I hope someone can help u because then they would also be helping me.... I want the same thing. Later dude.....
I think the only solution is Wisbar Advance Desktop.
That can create a page for portrait and one for landscape.
There is a program from a company called Netwasp, Thememaker M, that allows you to make WM6 themes with a portrait and landscape Graphic that are different. I'm using it to make themes for my Tilt, and it works great

I use PhoneWeaver from http://www.SBSH.net for this, and love it. I have it set up to be on vibrate during normal business hours, quite after I put my daughter down to bed, silent at night while I'm sleeping, and loud rest of the time. Everything can be completely scheduled based on time/days. You can also set up different alerts for Phone/Mail/SMS/etc. based on these profiles as well. The only issues that I have come across is that it doesn't turn Wifi off correctly, but I think there is a work-around for this.
I had a Today screen plugin that I was using, and I have no idea how I got it, but I did a hard reset and now I have lost it. I'm using Sleuth 3, but it doesn't seem to be part of the ROM.
It consisted of a narrow status area that showed the name of my network operator and below that my wireless LAN status (disconnected or not) on the left, and then on the right side of the screen it showed whether my Bluetooth was on or off. I know there are probably a million plugins that look like that, but maybe somebody could point me in the right direction!
i think those both are just today screen items...go to start menu, settings, today, then the items tab. I would think its some kind of bluetooth or BT box you have to check...it depends on what type of rom your using...

lol we both had the same posts....
until now

I tried ticking all the available options and it never seemed to appear. I found a screenshot of someone else that was using it on the Today screen post. In the attached image, have a look at the plugin that says AT&T with WiFi and the Bluetooth symbol. Anybody recognize it?

Kaiser Tweak
Download and install Kaiser Tweak and about 3/4 way down you will find the option to enable "Wireless Today", this is what you are looking for.
It is already in your ROM you just need to tool to enable it.
Aaah, that makes sense, because I didn't remember installing it last time and I had fiddled with Kaiser Tweak. Got it back, thanks for the help!
I use a today plugin that allows me to switch BT/WiFi/Phone on/off as required - get it from http://www.paulbdesign.com/effcomm/ (the screenshot - capture0001.jpg - shows you what it looks like, so you can see what you're getting before you download it ).
It's nice and simple, doesn't use much screen real estate and it does what it says on the tin.....

i'm trying real hard but i cant see any plugin that says at&t, in fact i dont see anything on the today screen......am i even looking at a today screen? cause all i see is a naked woman
yeah, the t-mobile wing came with that today plug-in. it is labled 'TMO ONS' on the items menu.
i beleive its a built in software
It is built in - it's the Wireless Manager today applet.....
Download the attached CAB file, install it and then select "Wireless" in the list of items (you can move it up/down to get it where you want it). When you go back to your Today screen, it will be displayed.
There's a registry hack, and probably a CAB somewhere, that will allow CommManager to be launched when you tap on the Wireless plugin - you can search the Hermes Wiki for that one
Hope that helps you out....
Mark.
This is the original T-Mobile ONS cab that I got out of the Wing's extended rom. I use it on my xv6700 for Verizon and it works fine. It already links to the comm manager and the date links to
Clocks and Alarms shortcut in the settings menu.
thanks for those today screen plugins. I should mention though that they only work on htc devices.
So I always try new today apps and have always gone back to my same set up. I am not a big TF3d fan so I want to post my today and let you know what programs I use and see if anyone has some really amazing stuff I am missing.
1. rlToday on top for time/date and program launcher
2. TodayAgenda in the middle for calendar
3. SpbPhoneSuite on the bottom for notifications and profile switching

Funny I use Spb Time up top, PocketBreeze in the middle (usually calendar only), and minimized Spb Phone Suite on the bottom. Very very similar. I love that setup and if this is your work phone it keeps everything you need close at hand.
Getting a Fuze to replace 8525 in a couple of days and wondering if I should even bother with TouchFlo. Looks neat but I like the "one glance" utility of my setup and your's, I don't think TF3D is going to make it.
@ ChrisFB:
I just went from an 8525 to a Fuze (received my Fuze yesterday), and I have to agree that you definitely lose a little bit going from that one-glance Today screen to the TouchFlow.. but it looks REALLY nice... I have the latest version of the Energy ROM and I'm loving it.
The Fuze is such an AMAZING upgrade coming from the 8525. The keyboard takes a bit to get used to, but after 30 hours I'm already starting to get the hang of it.
where did you find that awesome skin for the rltoday
I like this one - one quick glance on today - but also TF3d on the other side ...

What do you use for that? I'd Kill to have HTC Home and be able to 'flip' to TF3D

Yesterday as I was leaving work I noticed a new icon on my default (home) desktop called Android. I didn't put it there and have no idea how it got there. When you tap it, it opens a window with like 8 android system icons, txt, settings, ect. Its kinda handy I suppose but not really needed, but I'm really curious where the heck it came from. Anyone else see this on their device?
Sounds like a folder rather than a shortcut? Never seen it before and it's not one of the default folders either.
Yeah I think you're correct. All those functions I usually do from the (LP) dock, and its like the phone decided I use those enough that I need a dedicated folder!!?? Nothing else has changed, the first place I looked was "About Phone", everything is as it was before. Weird!
Edit: also I have LP set to not have text labels for any icons, but this one does say "Android", jesus phone indeed, ha!
Edit: Oh, and the graphic is a generic gray cellphone.
Screenshot??
Sure when I get home and have access to my computer/SDK
SDK? Looking at the spec list you don't need it?
You are aware you can use screenshot apps with root, right?

Yeah took a quick look at the Market and nothing really jumped out at me, and didn't have a lot of time to monkey around with my phone.
Anyhow,

Not sure about the Android shortcut/icon, but the second screen looks similar to the popup that shows when you hold the home button. (recent activities list)
Looks like one of the default Folder Organizer items, do you have that installed? If so, you probably added the widget while it was in your pocket or something. I'd be less worried about your phone and start wondering if your leg is becoming self aware!

Bingo!! Its a widget selection for a program I have called App Organizer, having said that, it takes four (specific) keypresses to get it to a place where I never put icons. I always leave my default home screen devoid of any clutter, (except time), for viewing cool wallpapers.
So I guess I'm back to, did this program just decide, without any interaction from me to put an icon on my desktop? Certainly not earth shaking, but a little bit irritating having some guy behind a monitor deciding how I should use my device.
In the scheme of things theres probably a lot more than less of this going on behind the scenes than I can see, lol.
Thanks for the replies/help clearing this up!

Hi Guys,
This issue has been really p*****g me off over the last two days... so, would reapply appreciate any help on this...
Yesterday or day before, I was just scrolling through the menus of the phone and decided to do a horizontal calibration (i've never done this since the getting the phone about two months back).
Settings > Display > Horizontal Calibration
And ever since I did the calibration, the screen has been really screwing up with me. Basically, what happens is that, a certain area of the screen gets automatically clicked!! This happens to a specific area of the screen. For example, when I get to the home screen from the app drawer, the widget that I normally have in this area gets clicked on for no apparent reason, and then I have to hit the back key to get back to the home screen. This happens about 5 times and then seems to go away for a while. However, it happens all over again when I use the phone after a little while.

}
In the attached screen capture of my home screen, I have highlighted the area of the screen where this happens in red. This happens not only from the home screen, but from within any open app as well.... For example, when I view the "my apps" section in the Android Market app, the app that happens to be listed in the above area get automatically selected!!!
I have re-calibrated the screen, re-started the phone and the only thing I've left to do is a hard reset. I'm not too keen on doing this as I don't fancy having to re-install 70+ apps all over again!!
Have any of you guys encountered anything like this ?
Would really really appreciate any help on this as this is really flipping me over!!
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
anyone......?
cmon, am I da first one on XDA to experience this issue?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
[Q] Auto Clicking - Sorted
ah! no replied at all!!!
neways, finally got this sorted by having the screen replaced!! luckily the phone is still under warranty... otherwise it would hav cost me around 250$ to get it done apparently (according to the service center guy who did it)!!
tried hard resetting, data+cache wipe and even flashed with a different ROM (darky's).... but nothing worked.... so, finally took it to the service center... luckily those people didn't notice that the phone has been rooted and all that plus, got a gud rappo with one of the technicians over there, so got it back the next day as well....
cheers.....
