I searched for it as well, and no one was able to come up with satisfying solutions.

Showing the DAY on the today screen

I kinda got used to seeing it under WM5, but I can't figure out how to dispaly the actual DAY on the home screen...
ie
'Friday, 11 January 2008'
rather than just...
'11 January 2008'
I've had a good search around these forums and although there are plenty of today plugins for 'time' and 'date' functions, nothing seems to cater for this...
Am I the only one to be so pedantic as to want to have the DAY showing?
I think the date format is "hardcoded" in the DLL...
hard-coded?
I think you're right. I seem to recall that when WM5 was launched it lacked showing the 'day' then a ROM upgrade later, seem to sort it out.
Wish I was a Programmer...

Thank you....
Hi! Thanks a lot - that's great - I added the registry tweak and the day *is* now appearing on the Today screen.

This has happened with me on many roms as well. I never got around to search for a solution. It would be nice to know how to do it, even though the operation is probably straightforward.

nope this has nothing to do with what we were looking for. The OP's original request was how to get an application on his today screen that was not in his today list = start>settings>personal>today, if the application is not present he was wondering how to make it present. I myself did not know the answer to this and also wondered the same but it was never an issue. Now that someone else asked I am interested in knowing how to perform the operation above.
The ATT base ROM does not have Windows Live installed. I am just finishing up my newest ROM and can verify this. I think ATT took it out because they didn't want to have everyone using so much data!!!
It appears the only HTC TytnII Roms have Live installed

Everything you say is true and I can agree to. However, the issue here is "how to put an application in today screen items".
Just wondering if anyone has resolved this. I just installed WLS on a Tilt and I also don't have the option to place the search bar on the today screen. I have spent at least an hour searching, and I see the same question asked, but no resolution. From my search, it appears that Windows Live gives you the option of placing the bar on the today screen while the installation process runs, but no such luck with WLS.
This is what you're looking for. Install this and you should have an option for that Live Search bar on your today screen.
Thanks, but that is windows live, and has a bunch of "stuff" (messenger, hot-mail) that I don't want. I know Windows Live has that option while the installation process is running, but I was looking for a way to get the search bar with Windows Live "Search".
Bump, I'm still looking for a solution as well

The problem is that people are confusing Windows live which is a " messenging " service and Windows live search which is a search program. I have both, and have not found a way to put it on the today screen.
I have it in my launcher menu, when I press the launcher tab on my HTC Home today screen. Big deal one extra button.

If you have Windows Live, and want the search bar on the Today Screen, then>>>>>
Start \ Programs \ Windows Live \ Menu \ Options \ Today screen options
If the OP wants the search bar without Windows Live installed, then I dunno.

Exactly and that's what I provided.
To the OP, WindowsLive_0409.cab does THREE things:
1. Installs Live Mail (aka Hotmail) natively in Pocket Outlook
2. Installs Live Messenger (depending on which build you install) and...
3. Installs Live Search Bar
Trust me on this, you NEVER have to open the program. Install it then do what GWelker said and it'll be there.
@denco
Windows Live Search DOES NOT include the search bar as it has nothing to do with searching the internet per-say. Windows Live DOES include the search bar. There's no confusing the two.

Is anyone even reading the thread, WINDOWS LIVE IS NOT WINDOWS LIVE SEARCH. Read the f###ing thread. He is looking to put Windows Live Search on his today screen. It is a program that searches for restaurants and gas stations and tells you where you are and where anything you want to PHYSICALLY find around you is.
It is not a freaking email program so stop with the Windows Live on the today screen posts THAT IS NOT WHAT HE IS LOOKING FOR!!!!!!!!!!

I am very aware of the difference of Windows Live, and Live Search. I interpret the OP's request is, they want the Live Search bar on his Today screen. The search bar is part of "Windows Live", not "Live Search" as fb401 has stated. There is no part of Live Search that goes on the Today screen.
Now step back up to the bong, take another hit, and chill...

See I interpreted it to be, he wanted the search bar in Live Search to be on his today screen.

That is the way that I interpreted it also. I finally went into HTC homeplug in the registry and just added the Live Search icon to the today screen. not quite as good as a search bar, but it works for me...

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.

Thank you Jim.
It seems that I've missed the Option button.
Thanks for the TodayAgenda tip too.

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.

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.

New Diamond owner (from Kaiser)...customization HELP!

My kaiser recently died (after only 15 months of service) and now I'm the new owner of a Diamond (AT&T Fuze). I'm told this little thing has tons of potential...but first, I need it to do what I want! I tried not to bug anybody, but I've searched and searched, and only gotten more confused. So here goes:
1) Is there anything out there that will allow you to add more items (like more of your calendar entries via Calendar+) to the touchflo home screen? I looked, and at first I thought something called Manila was promising...then I realized that was the code-name for touchflo3d itself! And the customization progs I found were more concerned with the order of tabs than adding content to the home screen.
2) Is there any tweak you can make that will lock the device up AFTER you complete a call? This phone is driving me absolutely bonkers by mysteriously dialing someone right after I end a call (I'm pretty sure my case is partly to blame, but I need a fix for it). Everybody else seems to be concerned with keeping the screen ON during the call...I found a ton of discussions/tweaks for that.
3) Has anyone ever dreamed of substituting the Weather Channel for Accuweather in the feed for the weather updates? Just curious...I've never been a big fan of Accuweather...and no one seems to have thought of this either.
Those are my biggies for the moment...hopefully, you can see that I've looked...it's just that I haven't seemed to have made any headway. HELP!
...And Thanks.

Question Shortcuts hidden/not appearing on homescreen

Hi all!
It's a while ago, 8 years, since I posted.
I just got the OP10pro and when I create a shortcut I got at least two options.
An 'add' button and 'touch and hold'.
The first one adds a shortcut, but it's not showing up on the home screen.
The second one works fine.
Buy now I have two shortcuts, somewhere, but I don't know where. When i try to add a shortcut again (for example a certain vpn server location) it says that it already excist.
I tried to search on my phone here on the forums but I can't seem to find anything. Or actually, I find alot but not the right thing.
Anyone know where to start?
After my last HTC i kind of forgot a lot of Android knowledge and didn't update it anyway
Thanks!
Never mind...
It added the shortcut under the main apps icon.
I get it now.
Maybe this didn't happen on Android 10 and older?
Anyway, good to be back
