All Day Events won't show on Today screen - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading

I have set All Day Events to show on the today screen (the tick-box under Today Screen >> Calendar >> Options) but for some reason it will only show the event if it has a set start and finish time.
I have searched everywhere but cannot seem to find a solution.
Can anybody else confirm whether this happens on their ROM?
I am using C_Shekhar's WM6.1C version (109).

Use The Search Wisely My Friend
People Claim That if they se the Events to Buzy..They will shw up on screen
See Here
and Here

Thanks ather, but the problem isn't that the event won't display in month view, it is that it won't display on the Today Screen (the home screen). If I set it to "all day" than the Today Screen says "No Upcoming Appointments" but if I set the event to a certain time, IE between 6am and 5pm, then it will show up on the Today Screen as "(Event) - 6:00AM - 5.00PM"
It happens in both WM6 and WM6.1, so it is porbably some setting that I am missing, not a bug. Just wish I could solve it.
It should work with "Show All Day Events" ticked, but it doesn't.
It would seem a lot of people are having the same trouble here:

upcoming events gone on today screen

hi there

the original today plugin is gone...it isn't shown at all...
can't even find it in the settings... what could i do?

Tilt shows "next" appointment, even if its a week away

Greets,
I recently was duped into thinking a meeting, which was a week away, was actually that day ... because the Tilt shows the next appointment regardless of how far in the future that appointment is.
Does anyone know how to set the Tilt to show only appoints for the current day?
Thanks!
Start \ Settings \ Today \ Items \ Calendar \ Options has 3 Selections:
Display : Next Appointment (Radio Button)
Display : Upcoming Appointments (Radio Button)
and a check box to display all day events.
From what I am seeing in the options, unless you have selected upcoming appointments, you can't change it. I haven't used the default calendar in a LONG time, and never in WM6. There might be a registry entry you could change, but I have no idea on how to "phrase" the search.
There are many 3rd party programs that can display your calendar. I use pocket breeze, but there are others, and even a couple of good freebies.
I personally use PocketBreeze also and you don't have to worry about this with all of the settings (its just trying to get all of the dang settings configured right as there are SO MANY! ).
TodayAgenda is a free app that works pretty well and may resolve this for you. Check it out (a lot of people use it here). I paid for PocketBreeze and like the speed of it better, and the tabs it gives for different things on the Today Screen.
SPB Diary?
The SPB line of software seems to be really comprehensive ... I am looking thru the SPB Diary manual to try to see if it would work too.
Anyone tried Calendar+? I used it on my PPC 6700 - not sure if it supports WM6 - was a very small and basic calendar replacement that was very customizable.

It is annoying and you would have thought Microsoft would have upgraded some of the internal apps by now (been like this since CE!) I fell into the same trap as you earlier in the year. Not wanting to add another package, I then started actually putting the date/time on the Title of my appointments which shows up on the today screen.

Wireless today disappeared

Strange behavior - w/o any reason the wireless today setting disappeared in my "today list of programs"
Usually it lives in the list (second picture) but it's gone.
In addition SPB mobile shell doesn't give me anymore the option to link to ANY program just the limited list shown in the third picture.
Any idea/ what hack to the registry could be applied to get it back?
kaiser tweak-> today screen -> wireless today
if that doesnt work :| idk
there are issues with wm devices having too many today items on the list some simply dont display removing some items by uninstall or editing the reg
kaiser tweak-> today screen -> wireless today

THUMBS UP!!
Though I didn't change anything in the tweaks it disappeared but NOW I know how to get it back, though it doesn't appear in the today's list...
What would be the regedit hack couldn't find an entry "today" ...
Thanks YOU ROCK
What does the wireless today display?
For me:
a.) The quickest jump to the comm mgr
b.) Shows status of all connections and BT
It's more or less a personal preference like almost everything with a device.
You can either do it as in the first pic displayed directly or one tap away (pic 2 and 3)
I do not like scrollbars on my Today screen so I rather opt. for one tap to get the info/options I want.
Sorry for the blast of pictures but that explains it perhaps best.

Is there allready a solution to show more than 1 calender event in TF3D homescreen??

I have read a lot about people who are looking for a solution to show more than 1 or sometimes 2 calender events under "the big clock" in TF3D home screen.
I have searched thrue whole xda but i couldn't find a solution for this except for using third party software....
Is there anybody who can tweak this or do a registry add. so that it will show all todays appointments and or upcoming app.
Sorry for my bad english, but i know that a lot of people also wants this so please help!
I wonder what could be done as there is not enough space for more than one line as far as I see.

you know you can slide the clock up right!
i was also looking for this problem but didn't find anything
afaik now, this is an issue with WM. it always shows only the next appointment.
if you want to display more appointments, you need a plugin (e.g. TodayAgenda)
there must be someone here with a solution....
indeed we can scroll the time up but then we loose the funky themed Hellboy clock
What we really need is the ability to turn off functions we dont need, for example, I don't need "Alarm" or "Call history" displayed. If these were removed from this screen then there would be enough space for another 2 calender entries. Indeed, why do we even need the word "Calender" displayed, is this not obvious from the text below it i.e. the appointment/birthday etc???
it is not an windows mobile issue !
if you disable tf3d you will see more than one ore two entries; if configured in the today section of wm.
it is an issue concerning tf3d afaik without a solution yet.
regards
t.

You cannot use this with TF3D ... or you must disable it ...

which sucks donkeys..... Its a shame that HTC employees have such limited lives or they would of noticed this little bit extra needed functionality very quickly.
Use advanced config to change what appointments are shown on your home screen. I have mine set to 'next appointment, and all todays events.' 2 appointments show only when I have an appointment on the current and the next. Still want it to show my next appointment regardless of how far ahead it is. Anyone else had any luck?

That doesn't allow TF3D to show more than one all day event though. Not on mine anyhow
Not just the Calendar show only tomorrow and not day after, the fonts are too small and not using System fonts that define in Screen>> Text,
The solution is to use Second Today screen, so u can add extarnal free program like Today Agenda with many many options..
I would have thought that the advanced config people could change the option to simply "show x no. of apointments". I have the clock minimised and there is loads of space with blank tiles at the bottom of the screen for another 2 appointments

Agreed. On the face of it it doesn't seem like it would be too tricky to fix but the lack of a solution deems otherwise. We sit and wait.
if u use s2u2 can u display up to 6 events in a maximum range of 100 days...
obiviously it's all displayed in the unlock screen!
I use the s2u2 method mentioned above.
I have to say that its an elegant solution, I can check my appointments by just touching the power button without even having to unlock.
Have to agree with S2UL as the solution to your problem! Give it a try, you'll be impressed.

Whole day event

I have a problem in showing all the "whole day events" on the smae day at the front page of TF3D, if there are two or more "whole day events" on the same day, say "A's birthday" and "Christmas Eve". is there any tweak or manila editing can help? thanks very much
can anyone help on this??
my question is that if on any one day, say 25th of december, you have two (or more) whole day events, like "Christmas day" and "Someone's Birthday", my experience is that my dimaond can show only one of them (say "Christmas day"), but not all, on the home page of TF3D, and then show the immediate coming meeting under this "Christmas day". is anyone here having the same experiece? do anyone know how to fix it to show all the whole day events on the home page?
Thanks a lot!
