Task Tab in TF3D - Programmer Needed - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

I know that I would donate $10 to someone who can take the time to figure this out. It has to be possible to add a Tasks tab to the TF3D interface.
I don't want to have to switch to second today or anything like that - fully integrated! A clean and simple list of tasks maybe with an "X" delete button on the right side of each task.
I know people say it's impossible, but with some time I'm sure it can be done.
If you would like this too and would be willing to donate some - just leave a post saying so - maybe someone will be enticed to collect such a prize enough to figure it out!
If you do figure it out and post a reply - you're my hero and please set up a thread for donations!
edit: By tasks I mean things you have to do in real life - NOT a list of running programs - linked in to the 'Tasks' program that's a part of outlook...

yeah, someone help!!! it a obviously new tab, everyone need that!

Manila Control?
I know it's not the answer you're looking for but have you taken a look at Manila Control?
It allows you to use your regular today screen (with plugins). It's somewhat like Second Today however I always had problems with it running. I've been using this since its release and haven't had any trouble whatsoever.
Manila Control
It's something for now until the XDA gurus can figure out a way to create a tasks tab.

count me in for a donation

I'll be willing to contribute to a tasks tab!

I'll donate too, 10-20 dollar if you can make something like alt-tab in windows for the touch pro, maybe use the capacitive touch(multitouch) for the alt tab, and when i slide my finger across that, i can select the program.

I'm not sure I understand but a programs tab is already out there (like when you go into the original programs tab and hit the all programs button)

I'll donate 10$ as well

What I want is the ability to quickly switch between all the program I have running. If i'm using opera and have say, media player running in the background, right now, I have to go to "Home", than use the HTC Task Manager to switch to media player.
If there is an easier way, that'll be great, but I have been doing it that way all this time.

Hahahaha... I cancel my donation - I was thinking about "tasks" as "things to do", not "running programms"

Ok - let me clear things up since I started the thing
I want a task tab as in 'things to do'
Like linked to the 'Tasks' program
You kno - that program that's a part of outlook.
NOT something to show running programs!
To me that just sounds excessive...

try "task facade"
I have a fuze, so I set the ptt button, but you can set the long-send key as it, and it'll do a x1 style overview of windows

I have a question about the tad too, I've seen nice interfaces with a calendar tab, for whatever reason my ATT Fuze didn't come with a calendar tab, you can click calendar from the home page but it brings up the default calendar instead of the pretty calendar I've seen in other screen shots, is there maybe a cab out there to install but he calendar tab to my stock Fuze TF3D?
Thanks!!
Heres a screenshot of what I'm missing (note mines not a black theme its the default ATT Fuze gray theme)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=135839&d=1228808515

$10*
Put me down for $10 provided that it is a tab, not a SecondToday kind of thing, and that the task display is a la TodayAdenda not just the original MS today tasks plug in.
Weird that this hasn't been done already considering how many people want it as, though I am not a programmer, it doesn't seem like it is that complicated a modification given some of the other things XDA folk have produced.

bump...............

OK, since it's for the "things to do" tab, I'll pay 10 bucks for it eventually

This is my most awaited feature. Not having easy access to tasks is a huge inconvenience. I do not understand why this was not a default tab...

Has there been a solution to this problem yet?

no... Just wishful thinking I guess...
$100 anyone???? (sarcasm btw)

I am pretty sure you cant do this from xml editing alone. I think you would need the source code for tf3d. I could add the function in the source code and then edit xml. Does any one have tf3d reversed engineered or is the source code released?

Simple today screen needed.

Hi,
I come from land of Blackberry. I'd like a simple home/today screen.
6 or 9 icons which point to things like calendar, email, sms, Opera.
I need to operate these with my finger and not the stylus, or perhaps the side wheel.
Also I want to get back to this screen with a single click of something.
Thanks

This is what i have, it sounds like it might be what you're looking for, the clock/calendar is rltoday, mine is a basic setup but you can customize it how ever you want, i've seem some pretty cool looking setups that are pretty advanced for me. The tabs is claunch, which you can have up to 8 tabs, you can have what ever icons you want in it, and you can make the icons as big/small as you want.

if it's just a few buttons you want then claunch might be something you want to take a look at, i have it setup w/4 tabs, but you can have it w/no tabs and just one screen and then put what ever icons you want to open up the program. the gmail notification is the standard Tilt notification. it came w/the phone.
SPB Mobile Shell, and SPB Pocket Plus are also excellent options. SPB Mobile Shell, is made for ease of use and functionality, but still makes your screen look amazing. You can even get weather updates on it. It also includes something called the SPB menu, which is fantastic for one handed navigation of programs, settings etc...
The first screenshot is of my today screen, at the top is SPB Pocket Plus (but Mobile shell looks similar), I use my tabs hidden, but as you can see from the second pic, if you just click on a tab, it has lots of goodies within. You can also have it so you don't need to click on a tab, and the content is always shown.
The third pic is so you can see how practical SPB menu is.
PS: I am in NO way affiliated with SPB, I just happen to love their software lol.
I agree for simple setup and use SPB Shell is a good starting point and you can customize the layout and icons to your needs.
If your into a bit more messing about and a little more work try Touch Commander.
As a starting point though SPB Shell

Thanks guys, must say having looked at the web page and features of SPB shell it does look very good.
Just wondered if it adds any stability issues or slow down to your kaiser device that you have noticed.
I tried to switch my kaiser on this morning with the usual power switch and it would not do anything. The lights were still flashing but nobody was home. I plugged it in to external power but still the same, ended up having to soft reset it. Sadly this is the second 'oddity' I have had in just over a week now. First was when it became unresponsive and would not respond to any screen presses. (I've not loaded SPB yet and to be honest not a lot else) /sigh!
Quick question, how does one get back to the SPB today screen from any other screen in one press? Without turning on/off?
Thanks
Mike
By pressing the End key?

Adding Tasks to TouchFlow?

Is there any way to add tasks to show up in the touchflow homepage, below the calendar?
Nobody knows?
i wanna know too
me too... I use tasks and prefer that to show up instead of calendar appointments.
Another task question...
I would like tasks to be added to Touchflo 3D too, but I'm guessing we're going to have to wait for the next version!
In the meantime, I have another task question; is it possible for tasks to just show active tasks that have "started"? e.g. if the start date for a task is next month, then I don't want to see it until then, unless I view "all tasks". I've just upgraded from a mobile 2005 device, and this is the first feature I'm missing!
Thanks for any help!
Lee
yeah...ane idea how to add task in the home screen...i so miss it though i like the Flo3D interface very much...adding the task option below the calender or instead could be great...ane ideas please...
thanks
With this version of TF3D it is unfortunately impossible.
yup i miss Tasks on the homepage too, the only alternative i found is adding it to the Start Menu so i can access it quickly.

Seriously?! No tasks on the home screen without disabling TF3D?.
Honestly.. ..every time I get a new WinMobile phone, it feels like 3 steps forward and 2 steps back. Ho hum...
(at least that's an aggregated 1 step forward... ;-) )
Million peoples aks for this before. Just use the search or google.
If it is possible, we make the solution public! Just wait...
A good solution I have found from helpful guys here is to
1 - install Second Today (found on these boards)
2 - registry change one of your soft keys to Second Today so you can flick between TF3D and Today
3 - install a today screen plugin (I like Pocket Breeze)
Then you have the best of both worlds and if you like tasks, as I do, you have them, notes etc all on your screen no harder to get to than scrolling home in TF3D
Oh and also if you wallpaper it with the same image you hardly know you are in and out of TF
Yeah I can definately recommend SecondToday too
Integrating Task-list to TouchFlo3d
I've been looking around a while, and so far with no luck for a fix for this.
So, the question is: Was the call log tab discovered in TouchFlo3D a pre-coded and hidden tab, or was it coded from scratch?
As far as I remember, it was discovered... But it was coded from scratch, can someone prep a task-tab for the TouchFlo3D?
This will be interesting, if only i was a programmer.
looking forward to this realese if someone would be willing enough, you are my heros
HI,
I solved that issue installing the Second Today application and using the Pocket Breeze plugin.
But I would also like to view the Tasks in a Native Touch Flow Tab.
Regards,
Jose
A tab with task and appointment info sure would be nice to have...
Tasks tab for Touchoflo 3D
Has anyone developed a new tab for Touchflo 3D (like they did for Call History) that would work with tasks? It would be great to be able to view and change the status of tasks on the fly...
Hey there! Remember I posted a similar thread for a while ago, didn't get any solutions then, but maybe this time
AFAIK the "recent calls" tab of TF3D hasn't been developed by anyone here. It was always there, right from HTC - just not used.

voice calendar application

Hi all
Im looking for an app that will complement the calendar by allowing to record voice notes instead of text input when the calendar is open on "day" view.
when you hold down a specific time on the calendar, the voice recorder is activated and the Voice Note automatically gets recorded on the calendar date and time you are holding down, and gets added to your reminders/appointments with default settings and no more questions.
It would be a lot better obviously if it was translated to text first, but not necessary.
I was able to find "voice cal", very old and uninstallable on wm6.1 with .cf.net 3.5
and also "speerio voice organizer"... looks like a memory hog and i read it doesn't work right. Its also crowded with a million different things that are not useful.
I just want a simple interface to be able to use with one or two clicks or buttons in order to set up a calendar event while im driving or on the phone etc....
thanks
bump!.................
Hi Spiro,
any luck on finding that app? Cos i've been looking for the same, tho i would prefer that when u push the "record" button, u get multiple choices regarding where to place the voice note, where "calendar" bein one of the first. Then u just had to place it into the day and time you would like it to be. Haven't found one yet, so i've started to write to different application developers suggesting such an app. I'm surprised that they haven't made one ages ago. In meantime, if you should come across one, pls let me know.
cheers
anyone???
Do I really have to take up programming and write my own app?
I was lookin around and saw this
handheld.softpedia.com/get/Business/Calendar/VoiceCalendars-52540.shtml
I think this is different than VoiceCal
The one I gave the link to, seems lke it could work. Only problem is that it doesnt use WM existing calendar.
I tried speerio voice reminder and it was horrible! I dont know what some people are thinking.
All I need is a simple plugin to show itself on the calendars context menu when I "long press" on dayview to say "new voice note" and when I click on it it should have a HUGE red record button and a stop button. When you hit the stop button the calendar would save that as an event with the default alarms on the date it was created
the only problem I see with that is that the heading of the event would not be very informative unless one typed the info, but im willing to live with that. Or maybe MSvoice command could help there with some text to speech engine!!! (im not holding my breath)
Im using an app called "thumpcal" right now but they dont have a "day view" and I have to set the time after I scedulle an event on a specific date, but its better than the built in calendar BECAUSE ITS SIMPLE!!!!!
I dont understand how am i supposed to use a program like "speerio" while im driving when it has 30 f...n buttons the size of a neutron on the screen in a grey on grey display?????????
Does anyone know what I have to learn in order to put a little program together to do what I want it to do?
PS I also found some other interesting programs like "freenotes" that I thought was a good idea but I would like to be able to initiate that from the "day view" on the calendar (right click on a time on the screen and have the choice of a voice note or a pen note) so that I dont have to key- in the time that I want the event to take place
ummmmmm.....the link that I posted does what you want.
1.Make folders by subject name
2.Click on a folder, it then brings up calendar
3.Click on a day of the month
4.There is a BIG RED RECORD BUTTON at bottom of screen
5.Record your note, it is then stored for that specific day
Is this not what you want? Granted it doesn't use your existing calendar but hey, something is better than nothing, right
VoiceCalendars
Update*
I was just lookin around and found this app. I think it might be right up your alley. Very simple/minimal interface. Allows you to record a voice message up to 2 minutes and then you can set a date and time for it to play aloud automatically.
Voice Reminder: Download Cab
Heres the website I found it at
I hope either of these programs can help. I know how frustrating it is not to be able to find that perfect app!

Hey asofiker
thanks for your reply
I have an HTC Kaiser phone
I tried both programs you suggested and had the same problems with both that other users seem to be experiencing
the "voice calendars" displays a "the control grid .....could not be created" error
and the other program from the XDA member gives me the "An error occoured on sub_app_start.
This device does not support display power on/off Continue?" error.
I appreciate your help and if I find anything that works in the future Ill be sure to post here
Thanks again!
Not exactly what you're looking for but an idea: Agenda Fusion with its Notes Organizer and Data Linking features. Also a good agenda with lots of views. http://www.developerone.com/agendafusion/index.htm
Pocket Informant 8 is the best Calendar and Contacts app available and I always install it to my wm devices. It has voice notes recording functionality and then some. Check it out. I have tried all the others at great expense (some provide trials) and this is by far the best one.
Regards,
MAC
I tried agenda fusion in the past and find that it falls in the same category as most of these organizer programs its simply overkill for a one handed hand held device with a 2 inch screen
Ill give pocket informant a try and post back
Thanks
pocket informant no good for this purpose either!

Getting Rid of TF3D

This thread is for discussion among those of us TD2 users who have dumped, or might dump, TF3D in favour of either another Today screen replacement or the stock WinMo 6.1 Today screen.
Thus far I'm finding the TD2 a hell of a lot more usable without TF3D. Little things like being able to use a lock password with a 15 minute delay, getting auto-Capitalization when writing texts are good, along with a much faster phone, much less memory usage and....it even seems I'm getting better battery life.
Most of the bugs people are reporting are actually TF3D issues which are resolved by ditching TF3D.
So has anyone else taken the plunge and gone back to the standard WinMo6.1?
I used to installed Ultimate Launch then Spb Mobile Shell in my original Diamond. Now I am using TF3D in my Diamond2. I wish Mobile Shell 3 may upload a more bug free version for the new device such as HD and Diamond2 and I may switch back to Mobile Shell. Perhaps WM6.5 release may change my plan and look forward to what HTC still put their manila on top of those WM6.5 device.
As I said, the thread is for people who are NOT using TF3D.
Personally I think WM6.5 will render TF3D completely redundant by handling the one thing it's good at - gloss.
Another thing I've noticed about not using TF3D is that the phone's response to tilting it to landscape and back is a lot faster.
My case as well: I've got the feeling that TF3D is more like a heavy bag.
As soon as I deactivated, the phone became easier to be handled and plus, presenting extra memory/battery resources as well.
However, a Launcher is very much needed, since neither the TF3D, nor the WM's Today screen don't offer the possibility to get to your action choice with only one button-tap.
Is there a good free launcher which can do that?
cheers!
I'm finding judicious use of which apps you put into the Start Menu helps a lot - the apps I use on a daily basis are all there, others I can get to via their presence on the Today screen, such as Tomtom.
The start menu seems to appear quicker than the TF3D one does as well.
Another thing I'm liking is the Today plugin for the RSS reader - TF3D2 didn't seem to handle RSS alerts well, when you acknowledged them it didn't take you into the RSS reader.
Best of all though is the fact I can now password protect my phone properly and delay it for 15 mins so I'm not badgered for the password all the time.
I'm finding that I don't need the stylus much either, despite the smaller menus and so on.
I just can't get over the extended battery life and improved memory usage though!
Without TF3D and three apps running (calendar, contacts and file explorer) my memory is loaded only 38%.
With TF3D it never went under 50%.
As for the battery, I can only say that it seems that lasts longer, but I didn't really seriously monitor it.
I was using PointUI Home2 free version on my Diamond, it's great. Less memory usage, and huge customisability. I had 5 "tabs" with the homescreen (see attachment) calendar & tasks, comms, stock, and weather. Worked great.
The default Home2 theme is a little mucky, but there is a huge range of alternative themes. I made a nice black one that suits the diamond.
If I get rid of TF3D then
- can I alter by normal threaded SMS for to show more than 1 line that I have typed in my new reply (like TF3D does)?
- can I still create push internet sites without TF3D?
- will the hardware button for program files still work? Will this take me to the same screen?
Can I exit TF3D without disabeling it just to check out how things look?
I have disabled and tweaked so much of TF3D that I am also thinking that it is going to be off my device with the 6.5 ROM anyway .... why not do it now.

Assuming you mean the flag button, yes it still brings up the Start Menu, but you'll get the normal WM6.1 one, which contains your most recently used apps, your seven favourite apps you've selected to appear on the menu, a shortcut to Settings and a shortcut to all your Programs.

Just go into All Settings, Personal, Today and uncheck the TF3D box to turn TF3D off. Give it a few days of usage before you make your mind up. Don't forget to turn on and customize the other Today screen plugins to get the full experience.

My thoughts entirely. In a couple of months' time TF3D will be completely redundant anyway.
Incidentally, I've started getting right into Today screen plugins...TodayAgenda is frankly the best app on my phone. I use the Todo (Tasks) app more than any other app on my phone. TodayAgenda allows you to have your task list (with only the active tasks showing, huzzah!) right there on your today screen, so you don't even need to unlock your phone to see what you need to do next! And you can complete tasks and create new ones right there on the Today screen. It's awesome and I can see this becoming my new most-used widget.
Just this one plugin renders TF3D utterly redundant as far as I'm concerned!
The RSS reader has a plugin too, which is really useful.
Does anyone else have good suggestions for really useful Today plugins? I tried PointUI Home2 but that's more of a replacement than a plugin.
Hi Jim,
By TodayAgenda you mean the calendar inputs shown in the Today screen?
If this is so, I'm a little disapointed because it shows only the next one, not the next week ones, let's say...
Is there a way to have more than one event listed?
thanks

No I'm talking about TodayAgenda - it's a plugin, you have to download and install it. It lets you look as far ahead as you like and does both Todos and Calendat entries (although I only use it for Todos).
Also, try WMP Status 1.0, it shows you on the today screen the artist, album, track and track number that you're currently playing in Media Player. Very useful as you don't need to unlock your phone to see what you're listening to!

Incidentally, if you go into Settings / Today and highlight CALENDAR, click OPTIONS, you can set it to show all upcoming appointments instead of just the next one.

No problem. Check out WMP Status 1.0 as well, it's really useful when you're listening to music!
Ok, since I droped TF3D, I also dropped the phone dialer skin, leaving the WM one, which is fine for me but apparently it has a bug:
it doesn't show me the calls&contacts, in its scroll-down field, even though there is some information present, because if I tap, it opens the call's details window.
In other words, it's like a list on which the items have the same font color like the list's background.
Did anybody experienced the same?
Is it possible that another dialer skin would change this behavior?
I put Phonealarm and today agenda straight on my phone and removed TF3D its just too restricting. I can get to everything i need with one click on the home screen none of this swishing fingers to get to stuff.
I really don't know what some of yoy are complaining about...
Not Capitalizing the first letter... NONSENS, when i write a SMS the first letter of a sentence is capitalized..
Memory consumption.......
Why do you think this device has so much ???? Because HTC wants you to run TF3D and still have more then enough memory free to run Whatever app......
I was sceptical at first too. But if you give it a chance you will see that once you have seen every screen (without a reboot) it's VERY fast, and very comfortable...
I am sure i will keep TF3D for a while !

I used to run 2 Today pages using Second Today.
Weather (SPB Traveller) , CLauncher and SPB Phone (can't beat the options here) on the 1st Today. SPB Diary full screen on the other (2nd) Today.
Custom links to Internet and GPS Navigation complete the productive config.
I travel for business. Calendar and Contacts and the most important.
TF3D Calendar can't make top 20 on market I would say. Contacts in TF3D are death by scrolling (by default). The new D2 Dialer is more productive for contacts than any of the TF3D contacts screens!
I agree that all these other UIs that don't allow Today plugins are missing the point. People want to pay for and use specialist programs where certain functionality is important to them.

I'm finding judicious use of which apps you put into the Start Menu helps a lot - the apps I use on a daily basis are all there, others I can get to via their presence on the Today screen, such as Tomtom.

With a WVGA screen, I really wish there were a work around to be able to place more than 7 apps in the start menu. Can't believe I've never found a hack for this.
Alternatively, I love to be able to route the start button to the All Programs folder but never been able to find this either. Two simple things that must not be easy or else we would have seen them before.
BTW, I unchecked TF3D within 24hrs (a month ago). I use SPB Mobile Shell for the shell. For the today screen (WM 6.1) I use Today Agenda, Google Search, Elecont Weather (paid) or WeatherBugDirect (free). I also run all my tasks and appointments from the traditional today screen via TodayAgenda.

Pocket Informant TAB (sense)

Hi,
as there are all kind of tabs for sense, I am quite curious if anyone can create also a tab for Pocket Informant (yes I have a purchased a license - so nothing illegal). What I really miss in SENSE that you can only see one line of date in calendar, but i need to see a lot more.
is it difficult to "develop" or create it? simply a window (tab) that is purely dedicated to Informant, where I can see PI, supporting the colors for categories, etc .. to by able to access all parts, but mainly and most imporatntly the AGENDA and to use it
I understand that probably no one will do it for free, but I am sure we can agree on little something ..
if I missed anything pls let me know - thx

I saw somewhere that there was a sense today screen tab mod. You might want to try looking that up and use Pocket Informant's today screen view.
At least for now.
