Calendar always starts in month view? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I'm using a T-mobile MDA vario-iii with the standard calendar applicaition.
Whenever I start the calendar it always starts in month view, despite the fact I have the option to start it in Agenda view? Can anyone else test this and tell me if there's behaves correctly please?
I've almost had it with this clunky device

yes, never had a problem with calendar settings....sorry for my wrong post above...which ROM you're using ?

Had the same problem and I managed to fix it but I can't 100% remember how. I think I used an app for changing the soft buttons to repoint the soft key to the Calendar.lnk in the organiser folder in the start menu. That fixed it.
The problem I had only effected the calendar if launched from the soft key, not from the program menu.

Standard ROM it came with which is
1.56.110.4
Is that bad?
I had to disable the bundled F-secure AV, responsiveness seems to have picked up since doing that.
thanks

Did you find a solution to this prob?
I've got the same issue.....no matter what I set my default Calendar view to, it always opens in month view from the soft key. If I open the Calendar from the start menu then it will open in whatever default view I've set.

Opening Messages - opens at BOTTOM of message?!

Anyone else? Open a message (any type) and it opens at the bottom of the message, so that I can't see the message or who it's from without scrolling up. It's annoying!
Also, if I use the D-pad to scroll through the messages, each message opens up in the same manner - at the bottom.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks,
FrankyG
You posted the exact same question over on MoDaCo - and I answered it, so here's the exact same answer again
This is/was a common problem on the Hermes / TyTn I - but only if you'd installed a "tweak" utility like HTweakC or PimpMyBlack. There is a registry key (see below) that needs to be set to a value of 1 in order to prevent the auto-scroll-to-end in messages etc. The only downside to setting it to 1 is that you can't then scroll around pages in PIE using the D-Pad, you've got to use the stylus.
Code:
\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\4-Way Nav = 1
If you've got the stock ROM on your TyTn II, then this may be the default setting; if you've flashed or installed tweaks, then this behaviour may be the result of that.......
HTH,
Mark.

hi,
i think it was just because there are some settings, when you can move mail attachments to the storage card. do not do that, i think this is main problem why msg are messed up after aplication this tweak.. anyway, i followed Mark Crouch's help and it works, so exported fixed registry and save for future usage

Remap Soft Keys on the Kaiser

Hi folks,
Is there a way to remap the soft keys on the Kaiser?
I am sure there is; I would appreciate it if someone explained to me how.
I had to uninstall Pocket Informant and I can't access the original Calendar app on the left soft key!!!
Many thanks,
MAC

SoftKey Changer
There you go.. Install, soft reset, and its under Start -> Settings -> System
I gave it a try but my expectations were that would be what that soft key would be no matter what program I'm in, but that is not the case. I guess I'll use somethign else like AE Button to get teh keys I want.
Thanks for the post though.
[EDIT]
By the way, after uninstalling, the button assignments remain. Interesting.
Yep use AE Button. It's an amazing tool! Although be careful what you change as it can mess up your device used carelessly.

Thanks very much. I will give this a try.
In the meantime I had to restore a previous version from SPB Backup and this got sorted. I have decided not to re-install Pocket Informant 8 as it caused some isues with ringtones and performance.
I put this on my HTC Tilt and it works awesome, exactly what i was looking for to change the two soft keys.
Hi there, hope everyone is well.
I installed the softkey changer cab , and it seemed to install fine. I was able to find it under settings with no problem and set the left softket to 'new sms'. However when I try to actualy use this from the homescreen i get an error message saying:
"The file 'tnsms' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components could not be found. If the problem persists try reinstalling or restoring this file."
I have tried reinstalling, but got the same problem. I can still send an sms if I go through contacts, or messaging, but would love to have this as a working softkey as it tends to be the function I use the most.
Other than installing google maps and opera mini, there have been no changes made since I received the phone a few days ago. It is a standard HTC tytn II.
I'm completely new to this, and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks, James.

Essentially, change the value of the key to /Windows/(your SMS program)
Mine was tmail.exe.
Now I wonder... how do I not go to the messages screen and go directly to a new SMS?
I'm having the same problem on a Tilt.

Thanks for the advice, I will probably give that a go when I've stopped being so scared of changing registry stuff.
I did find another app that does the trick though. Just make sure you add a shortcut to 'new sms' first (bottom option of the config screen), you should then be able to assign this to either softkey.
Works for me, and I'm able to go straight to a new sms from the homescreen.
Hope it helps, all the best.

Messages open at the bottom!?

Anyone else got this... Every time i open a message it seems to default to the bottom of the message... i.e. a blank screen. So I have to scroll up to the top of every message i get!
How do i fix this!? its really annoying!
I have the same problem... I think it is rom specific though... I am using WM6.1...Sleuth V3
It's a registry hack issue. Install Kaiser Tweaks and disable the D-Pad scrolling.
If you are using Kaisertweak, make sure you have the D-Pad Scroll Navigation set to default.
fantastic - thanks
when i installed KaiserTweak i basically just put everything onto it's advised setting
Which option is it? I cant find it in KaiserTweak.

In KaiserTweak Collapse all the trees one by one until you get all the way down to PocketIE. In there set D-Pad Scroll Navigation back to Disabled.
AFAIK, this is not a registry problem. in fact all you have to do is to choose the way your messages are arranged
at the right upper corner of the messages application (right below the clock) there is a tab that arranges your message by: Message Type, From, Received, Subject
normally it's ticked to received, but if you hit Received again you will see your messages arranged from the older one you got and the newest is at the bottom... all you have to do is to hit Received again.. And you're done

Hi Guys, Thanks alot. that was really starting to bug me, and I had the feeling that the only way to return it to "normal" would be to hard reset, so just deseleting the D Pad in the Tweak and soft resetting has saved me alot of trouble.
Thanks Again,
Tom

Hey guys,
I'm experiencing the same thing with a Helmi AKU 3.5 ROM that I've put on my Universal. I know that KaiserTweak is for the....Kaiser, but I was wondering if anyone knew exactly which registry hack to change to "disable DPad scrolling". I read in one of these posts that it was under the PocketIE settings, and I do know that my PocketIE has been hacked to support "high resolution mode", so maybe this is what is causing my issue (although I've found nothing about the setting in IE itself).
If anyone can enlighten me (probably with a Registry setting), even if you've already 'fixed' your Kaiser, I would appreciate it immensely, as this small issue is slowly driving me nuts!
Thanks in advance all,

Calender Bug - Any Fix?

Hi all, I choose to start calender in 'month view' in calender options, but when i open it, it comes on in month view but immediately changes back to day automatically. Has anyone else come accross this?
yes, my HTC Diamond also has this bug.. anybody has any idea how to solve this bug??
Just a curiosity: does this happen with TouchFlo disabled as well?
I haven't tried disabling touchflo so not sure.
Here it's the same, but with TF3D disabled everything is fine
I have no fix for the calendar bug. I use another agenda program though (Agenda One), which has a much much better look and feel than the standard one and much more functionality.

ok folks, i've just tested on my Diamond. If you open Calendar using the 3D Touchflow, u'll open up to the day view (irregardless of your view settings in Calendar).
but if u open Calendar using the Start -> Calendar.... u'll get the month view (assuming u've set "month view" in the options)

Thanks mate.
It is not a bug, it is a feature:
Touchflo 3D is a TODAY replacement. So if you use Touchflo 3D to open calender, it will show you TODAY!!
Makes sense, don't you think?
If you want to take a look into your calender in an other view, you can use one of the many other ways to open it.

That's completely normal, as it is called a Today screen So if you open the calender by clicking your agenda it will open today and not the normal setting. Discussed here before a few times and as far as i know there isn't a solution yet.

ah...ok...thx!!
I found the following behaviour with my T-Mobile branded Diamond:
You're in the TouchFlo3D home screen.
Clicking on an appointment shown below the clock and missed called button, you will see the agenda view.
Clicking on the lower right hand site "calendar" button, you will see the month view in calendar. No matter what you've setup in the options mentioned above in this thread...
Bit weird.
*bump*
still no possible fix or tweak around this thing? i know it's not a major bug or smth but it's annoying enough to have to tap 3 times more just to get into your "month" view
I fixed this by changing one of the soft keys to calander. When I now click this soft key it goes to my calander month view page. But if I click the reminder/calendar note below the call history it goes to day view so I think its a bug with TF3D.
I have fix this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462037&highlight=month+view
