The thin strip across the Today screen that has the date, etc now has the time and it makes the strip be two lines instead of one.
How do I get it to only be one line? The time can go away as it it in the taskbar.
Thanks
Start>settings>today>items>>> Uncheck "date">>click "ok"
I don't believe you can make it one line all the time. I have noticed that when it says friday its one line. As opposed to wednesday because the length of the day names. The only good answer i can give you is remove it as i stated above, or deal with it.
Single-line Date hack in KaiserTweak?
strip
If I do as suggested, this removes the entire strip. I just want the date and day to show up, not the time.
Like what NotATreoFan said, use the KaiserTweak, under the Today Screen section, Date Display - change to one line. Just did that today, it works great.
date strip
BUt I dont want to load Kaiser tweak. This has to be possible to do this via the registry.
Thanks
registry to change date format HKLM\nls\overrides\SSdte but you'll need to use kaiser tweak to get it to one line.

Why? It's less then 100k in size. But if you're really against it, just change the date to single-line and then delete the KaiserTweak folder after soft resetting.

Is there any way to change the theme to have more than one appointment on the screen at one time?
Cheers

When I have multiple appointments on my Today screen, it shows a maximum of two, and if I have more than two coming up (say, tomorrow) but I'm still on today's appointment, it will show the first appointment for tomorrow and then as soon as my current appointment is finished, it'll update to show both of tomorrow's...
... Do you mean you want to display more than two?

Yes - exactly - I want display more than two - say 3 or 4 - there must be a way to it since plug-ins can display?
Does PPC work the same way as Smartphone? ie - XML for the homescreens?
To achieve this, you'll need a Today plugin which offers this kind of functionality... The first that springs to mind has got to be Pocket Breeze ( http://www.sbsh.net/products/pocketbreeze/ ) - I don't use it myself, but I think I may try it out sometime soon (saw it a while back, noted it, but never got round to trying it out).
Or if you're either a dab hand at programming (or know someone who's fearless enough to undertake some) then you could always try writing your own Today screen plugin...
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/sampchap/5461a.asp#100
SPB Diary will also accomplish the same thing. http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=17704&associateid=17
Hmmm....not sure about Pocket Breeze thing - it's a bit much for just one function! And I like a nice clean Today screen - PB just make it look "busy".
Looks like I'll have to read-up on xml - unless anybody else knows a simple solution?

My today screen date is changing from one line to two lines. I want it to only use one line.
As you can see, the font is not changing any, something is just causing it to display using two lines. After a hard reset, the date displays correctly (one line). I install Pocket Plus, SKTools, Pocket Informant, and change settings but I cannot figure out what is causing the date to change to two lines. The only consistant thing is that it happens after a soft reset. This implies one of my programs is making a registry edit that gets applied after the soft reset.
I can not find a registry edit that affects the number of lines the date uses.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks for the reference, though I have already gone thru all the suggestions in that thread (and many others).
Note that the date is changing from one line to two lines. I would like to figure out why it is changing and thus be able to fix the actual problem instead of installing a new cab and using some other work-around.
At this point, I am quite certain that SKTools is causing the change which implies it may be a registry edit.
Any other ideas?
Okay, I seem to have figured it out. SKTools was indeed causing the change in used lines. SKTools has a setting, TuneUP!->System Tweaks->Single line date plugin, which is set to no by default. So after SKTools is installed and any of the TuneUP! settings are adjusted, the "no" setting for Single line date takes effect (after a soft reset).
On my Diamond I'v got now an extra programs Icon in the TF3D programs tab.
This had append two time (hard reset since the first time.
So is there a way to increase the number of icon , since had a extra icon for no apparent reason.
And now when I try to put a program for the 'extra' program icon, it add an other empty icon, look like i can do it every time i want.
Look like a bug in TF3D. Does anyone have ever experience it
Telus HTC Touch Diamond
ROM 1.06.661.1
DIAM500
HV 0080
TF3D 3.0 b29946
I have the same problem too!
it is so annoying i have like 5 extra rolls on the bottom..
oh and i have the sprint diamond with the original rom
It's the original ROM in my phone too. No one seems to be really expressive here about this issue. This is annoying, now I have like 30 extra empty icons that I can't put any program. Basically the second 9 program icon are useless since it's scroll down and pass those.
Don't want to go to hARD Reset... Damn it's suck.(sorry) to re-install everything once a mouth.
About 10 hard reset since august and 1 device replace at the carrier after only 2 mouths.
Just use som kind of reg edit software and delete all entries above 17 found in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
So if you have 18...19...20...ect. Delete those and you will have the normal 18.

Thank you.
Everything is quiet like the grave... I haven't heard or read a single word if there is anything new in this rom except the tiny bug fixes announced by HTC...
Anybody who already upgraded, have you noticed something new???
Hey
Apart from the official line heres what ive noticed (in twelve hours)
1. Sliding Bar answer on incoming calls
2. Text input keys are smaller so that you can actually see whats on the screen when youre writing (sic)
3. Ever so slight speed improvement on finger sliding
4. Video Call re-replaced with contacts (life saver)
5. Might just be me but the fonts seem sharper and slightly smaller.
6. Add a word in text messaging for example now gives a tick and a cross instead of "add"
Just random little things Ive noticed but as they say, its the little things that count eh!
no more flipping envelope when going to mail it's just there...
and some speed improvements, but in winmo only (not touchflo).
hey just a couple more
7. When connecting to PC via USB you get a 3rd choice - internet sharing (as well as active sync and disk drive)
8. HTC flo text message section now has a forward option as well as reply and delete - no need to view all messages to forward
ill keep you posted (or not if no one is interested)
Thanks for the replies
I feel like the Sliding Bar on answering calls helped me decide to upgrade, even though I'll loose the flipping envelopes
Sliding Bar is good
Ability to forward text message from Touch flo is good
The rest are the icing on the cake!!!
Good luck - I had a bit of a scare with my upgrade last night - it stopped on 60% and told me the image file was corrupt. Worked second time though from the same file???
First bug: if you have activated a security PIN (like me) you can't block the phone keeping pressed the phone down button. The screen goes black for a fraction of second but the phone doesn't block.
Another thing I didn't notice before (so I'm not sure if it was the same in previous versions): you can add only 15 persons to your favorite contacts (the "Add to Favorites" buttons just disappears). BTW, is there any tweak to increase this limit?
its always been 15
I use speed dials - easier and possibly limited to 100 (not sure)
The favourites has always annoyed me - you cant seem to change the order in which they appear and they look boring without a picture (IMO)!
There's also a new Java engine, better than the old one. At least better for Opera Mini 4.2, fonts are now bigger and easier to read.
A recommended update.

My envelopes are flipping fine.... just as they always have!
And for anyone's who's interested; if you've been using any of the cooked ROM's which have been released recently, you won't notice any difference with this official release because the ROM cookers have been using v2.03 for weeks!
9. Agenda from home screen works correct now. Choose the view u'd like to see, (day, week, month whatever) and it will open up correctly right now, when opening Agenda from home screen.
10. When u select agenda or calls on the home screen, it will be selected by green. When u finished looking agenda or calls, and return to the home screen, the green selected option is gone, a clear screen with no green. (before the thing was always green when u turned back, it frustrated me )
Just 2 things i recognized!
I saw it at Singapore web site http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=483&news_id=44

They do indeed, but thanks to Facebook I have pictures for all of my favorite friends...
I'll give a look to speed dial too
with this new rom, i have a problem:
when i receive a message and open it with tf3d i can't type prompt.
i have to move down the text to see the last message and then i have to put the cursor on the correct place.
Its a rom update but is it aswell a radio update?

Noobie question,
As The HTC website won't accept my Orange UK Diamond S/N, would it be okay to download from another source, or do I have to wait until Orange to approve the newer ROM, and publish on their website confused
many thanks

As far I now Orange use a own brand rom and when you start using a other rom you will lose your waranty, ofcoarse you can get a other rom just ask someone here to upload it, but you can use than aswell a coocked rom.

Yeah, correct. Orange will distribute their own ROM's.
11. AKU version has been updated to allow synchronisation to two PC's (fixing the Activesync error 0x86000107).
Hey
A little bug that I found last night - I installed nadavvi-nadavvi-call-history cab - which installs an extra call history tab to the touchflo menu
Afterwards everytime i tried to access sms through touchflo i kept getting unexpected errors in manila.exe.
As soon as i uninstalled the call history tab sms started working again. Shame as i had this installed with the older rom with no probs and it is quite handy.
I've decided to do the upgrade tonight but I have a question:
All my apps are installed in the 4GB Internal Storage (Not the phone memory). Will the Internal Storage be viped out aswell during the upgrade?
If not, I guess all apps will be useless anyway since the registry is viped. Do you recommend uninstalling all the apps before the rom upgrade???
My Tilt died under warranty and they gave me a new one. I love to keep a picture of my boys on the screen but hate the background pictures. When I first got my tilt I somehow figured out how to include a picture plugin in the foreground on the today screen items. I could kept a picture under the date and calender items.
For the life of me I cannot remember how I did it. I thought maybe I just copied everything on the registry exactly from an old treo 750 I have which had the option programed in when I bought it. It did not work. Maybe because I could not copy the plugins (DLL files) from the windows folder. Beside the set up on the window folder seems to be different.
Does anybody know how I can include a picture in the today items? A software solution prehaps?
Thanks
Start>Settings>Today>Items>uncheck HTC Home>OK>OK
Set your photo as wallpaper.
Hope that helps.
that is not what I am looking for
Thank you,
But in the background it is hard to see the the other today items because of the difference in brightness in most pictures. I am looking for a today item which I can include a picture where the other today items are above or below the picture.
What you are looking for is TodayImage. It is a Today plugin which alllows you to display one or more images.
Here are two cabs I have but I am not sure which one is the correct one. Its trial and error. I haven't used this in a long time.
Please let me know if this is what you are looking for.
There is also TodayGif which allows you to display an animated gif as a plugin on the Today screen also.
Regards,
MAC

Didn't think this was possible! Nice one, I'll give it a try.....
Todaygif frooze my tilt?
Thank you very much. for the plugins. They didn't work well but the thought is appreciated.
I tired the todayimage but it didn't do a good job of fitting the picture on the screen. Then I tried todaygif, when I tried to add a new gif file it lockup and would not boot up agian. So I had to do a hard reset.
Anyone else know of another solution or plugin?
I think I might have figured out a way
I looked at my old palm treo and it has a plugin call Picture plugin. I think if I could get that on to my tilt I make the files in the registry to call it up.
When I try to copy that file off my treo it tells me
"Executable and resource file in ROM cannot be copied"
Is there another way to get that file onto my tilt?
