Afternoon,
Bit sick of S2U2 for the following reasons:
I use the phone for Voice dialling on a parrot car kit, with S2U2 in operation, it wont work.
I use the phone as a wake up alarm and that too doesnt function properly with S2U2 as i found out this morning 30 minutes after i was supposed to get up!
I was more than happy with the regular button on the home screen, but it seems to have disapeared in TF2d, is there a way of getting it back, am i being stupid and looking right past it, or is there a fix for S2U2 for the problems above?
Cheers
Josh
What version of S2U2 are you using??
I use the new version with G-Alarm. Works like a charm. The alarms are VERY customizable.
As far as the BT kit, I can't offer any suggestions.
But I hope that helps a little.

Good luck!
As far as I know, S2U2 doesn't give GAlarm any problems when the alarm runs. But I think there is a place in S2U2 where you can configure application exceptions.
I, i use parror, S2U and GAlarm without issues. Please be sure to install GAlarm on phone memory. Regards.
S2U2 Conflict with PhotoContacts Pro
Dear All,
It's really the first time for me to participate in this kind of forums but what really encouraged me to do so is that the ppl here are very respectable and doing a great job..T H A N K Y O U A L L
I'm using a hTC Tytn II...I've installed PhotoContacts Pro (I think 1.35) and i installed S2U2 the latest version with tPro skin...the caller ID really impresses me but i'm losing the function of the contacts program mentioned above of assigning ringtones to categories and individual persons as the caller id of S2u2 overrides the program and uses the default ringtone of the device or they seem to both to fight for control....
A N Y B O D Y H E L P................
W A I T I N G F O R A F L I P C L O C K T O O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
with my best regards...
Alarms, Voice Command, & others problems
I know the following alarm programs don't work stock with s2u2:
* Standard Windows Alarms (Control Panel -> System -> Clocks & Alarms)
* Samsung Clock Application
As far as Voice command not working thats a saftey issue - voice command will not listen to you when a screen lock program is running.
I have found that s2u2 interupts my GPS applications; so i just run Ilock2 and it temporaly disables s2u2 whilst i am hiking or using navigation software; but a better solution would be nice.
I didn't know about being able to program excetions - is this to deal with s2u2 intereupting GPS programs or the voice command issue or the alarm issues - and how do we do this?

Really annoying bug from Microsoft Calendar
When you select option to display upcoming appointments and also checked to display all day events, it will not display the all day events !
http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsMobile/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2045397&SiteID=65
Anyone know which good and small application to replace this Calendar plugin?
PocketBreeze is nice, but it is too complicated just for showing several events in advance.
Calendar+ is nice and freeware, but I dont know if it is running fine on WM6 (there was a report said it wont run on WM6).
IMHO, PocketBreeze and SPB Diary (I think that's the name), is the best plugin for calendar events. While they can be a bit complicated to set up (so does your PPC compared to a cheap model of Nokia), it can work pretty much to the way you want it to. E.g., I'm using PBreeze, I can have the top tab row remove, just showing the schedule, for 7 days. Everything is in 1 place, colour coded. Yes, you REALLY need to dig in to make it works for you.
Anyway, you can perhaps try the freeware, TodayAgenda. Not sure if it works on WM6, but it is *like* a much lighter version of Pocket Breeze, with easy settings.

Or you might wanna fidle with the regisrty a bit.... Numerous WM5 hacks work perfectly on a WM6 device... Check out the wiki's
I recommend Calendar+, it is an excellent replacement for the normal
Calendar plugin, highly customizable and looks great. Best of all,
it's free.

TodayAgenda is really the best!

Thanks guys, I will give it (calplus) a go later today.
One bug down, still another one :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330224
Although the Calendar+ is working fine, it has small annoying bug
In the Today screen, I only have 3 items:
- HTC Home
- Calendar+
- TomTom 6
After soft-reset, the TomTom 6 is gone from the Today screen!
However, the setting is still there in the Today setting.
I must uncheck then check again to make the TomTom 6 appear.
Well, I think, I will move the TomTom 6 to the program launcher tab.
Just use TodayAgenda, it's free and it works like a charm....i use the 1.0 Beta with no problems what so ever....
I am now considering to use TodayAgenda, but the display looks complicated (cluttered)
With Calendar+ , I can resize the text as small as possible and display each appointment as compact as possible (single line). So, it is very clean without much of icons.
Hello
Which alarm program do you use?
SPB Time is unable to this job...
Geko
I'm not on kaiser/tilt yet but I've been using this alarm app for a few years and I am very happy with it.

The standard WM stuff... (hit the HTC clock to get there)
To me it has more than enough configurable options (don't forget you can click the bell-icon too for setting various sound options)
The best http://www.burroak.on.ca/pta.html
Yeah,
I use standard alarm from WinMo and it is enough to wake me everyday at 7 oclock
What do you want to configure? And why Spb Time cant handle it? It must be something fancy I guess.
PocketAlarm maybe?
After doing a lot of research and trying and testing various alarm programs I have found Choronos time clock to be the best though it is not free.

MP3 on Standard WM 6 Alarm
Does anyone know how to set an MP3 for the alarm on Windows Mobile 6? This is something that is really bugging me and I don't want to install a 3rd party app on just for this one function...
Convert the mp3 to WMA.. I think it supports WMA
Tough call
i may have toruble with that as i use linux to encode the files, so no support for wma. But it canb play MP3's and use MP3's for ringtones, so i don't get why it needs a wma for the alarm...
I love enAlarm, with WMA/MP3 support, great soft...
is anyoen else having issues with ultimatelaunch? i ahve to constantly soft reset. is it because i have a trial version as opposed to the paid for version?

I've been running Ultimatelaunch for about a month (unregistered) with no stability issues.
Try searching here. They have answered a lot of questions. If you don't find it then post. They are pretty good about getting you an answer.
no issue for me I use it with SPB mobile shell , pocket plus, pocket weather, rltoday
Do not put today plugins inside UL and on the today screen at the same time .... that causes me problems

Yeah, make sure all today plugins that you want INSIDE the Ultimate Launch are UNCHECKED to be on your Today Screen.

I am using PhoneAlarm on the Today Screen and the following inside of Ultimate Launch

Today Agenda
Seems to work with one exception.
If I go to Mail, open the keyboard (Rotate Screen) then go to the today screen and close the keyboard, INSTANT LOCKUP. If I stay in mail, and go back to the closed position, I am fine.... Otherwise seems to be working.
i have been having problems too... since i installed UL my user interface has been extremely lagging. and i have tried all kinds of ways to get it working perfectly like how everyone says it works.
a lot of people says it works perfectly with out anything, but wheni have it installed it laggs up unbelievably...
i even have to put a back up until the latest time in order to get everything working.
hi,
i´m using ul for 2 month now and everything works fine! i use todayagenda and htc home inside ul and the wireless today plugin above and my mailprogram (tobit david) among ul.

Never install Today Plugins to your Storage Card, that can cause problems!
Hi there guys,
been searching if anybody had the following problem, then i stumbled on this thread, where somebody might be able to help me.
I had a qtek 9100 before with ultimatelaunch, with today plugins in ultimatelaunch. This worked perfectly, nothing wrong.
Recently, i purchased a Kaiser (to be precise, a T-mobile MDA Vario 3), on which i tried to run Ultimatelaunch. Everything works fine, except after i launched an application & go back to the today screen. When i run tomtom for example, and i go back to the today screen, the ultimatelaunch part is not automatically refreshed. If i just press in the area once, its redrawn. Does anybody have the same issue, or even better, a suggestion on how to solve it?
thnx in advance,
greetings hawkeye
out of curiosity what did you guys put in your UL, app wise?
My system backs up nightly and I soft reset after every backup. I believe this eliminates many issues with my system.
After 3 weeks of testing, I do not have lockups with this combination.

does anyone find that activating the htc home screen on start up cause problems? or better yet does anyone have any tabs that they activate on start up?
also having problems when using home customizer. it seems to freeze ultimatelaunch for some reason

Problem is that HHC check if HTC Home Plugin is enabled at startup.
Because it thinks it's not, it starts HHC. After making changes, it will try to copy changed file's to HTC Home directory. Because HTC Home is loaded into Ultimate Launch that will fail, and make Ultimate Launch crash!
Best for you to do is, disable Ultimate Launch on your today screen, start HHC and make changes to plugin, then after applying re-enable Ultimate Launch. (Uncheck HTC Home, it's auto enabled trough HHC.)
That should work for you.

When I was testing HTC Home with UL, that's the same thing I did.
Hi everybody,
since one week, I'm the proud owner of a the great HTC Touch Pro.
In the meanwhile I tried nearly every day new software, new themes, new wallpapers and so on, to customize the HTC TP according to my needs.
After I tried various user-interfaces, I came always back to the Touch Flo 3D interface... it's the best for me (according to usability and design), even if there are 2 issues that are still frustrating since I were not able to solve them or find a proper workaround:
1. The home-screen shows only the next appointment and is not customizable to show more than 1 appointment at the same time - even if I scroll down (the clock is getting smaller), there's only 1 appointment shown.
This behaviour is not very satisfying - especially since I'm using my phone mostly for the business.
2. The is my biggest problem: I have a tool called "profiles" - with this tool, you can manage and create different profiles and you can also create a schedule that can switch profiles automatically (I was using this tool already on my old device with windows mobile 5 and it worked great). Especially the schedule-functionallity was very great and I'm looking for a solution that is also working under Touch Flo 3D.
As far as I noticed, profiles is not working with touch flo 3D - the scheduled tasks are not applying and the activation of a profile within the program is not working - I think this tool is only working if you install the plugin on the home screen (of the windows mobile interface).
Since I have no "home screen" in Touch Flo 3D, the tool is not usable for me.
Does anyone here have a comparable profile-tool which works under Touch Flo 3D (with the scheduling option)?
Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english...
Hey!
As for profile switcher.
I have spent whole day searching i have try almost every single of them most are not free and they are as today plug-in so it sux because if you use TF3D you can't use anyother plugin unless you install Second today. So angry as hell i have pointless shuffle through XDA and...
MIRACLE
i found G-Profile! GREAT FREEWARE!
it can switch profiles according to many rules such as time, schedule, appointment etc. etc. and it have plenty of options.
i also found Phoneweaver but eventually because it's not free i didn't test it ( Had enough of payed software after PhoneAlarm and SPB Phone suite which are only today's plugins... )
WOW !!!!
G-Profile works fantastic!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Now, I just have to find out if there is any possibility to execute the profile-changer from the TF3D Home-Screen (without using one of the soft-keys for that)... that would be the best solution for me!... for example: If I touch on the clock, the profile-changer opens... or something comparable...
I try to find out if there is any possibility and will let you know if somebody is also interested...
I doubt it. Only soft/hard key remaping or program launcher tab.
ageye can do no wrong! Everything made by ageye is awesome. Try out g-light as well to tweak your backlight. I just tried this last night, and it is pretty cool. g-alarm is also a must have.

You could try SSMaPa http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
a manila patcher with which you can reassign other programs to manila programs - also to the clock on the home screen.
I use it for iContact and it works great
Yup ageye soft is great.
G-Profile is great!
Only downside for me: it really, really drains my battery...

That`s absolutely true!
My HTCTP never survived the whole night until the next morning!
Maybe you should also try to reduce the polling intervall that should reduce the battery consumption...
Now, I have only the QuickSwitch enabled and implemented it directly "behind" the clock on Manila 3D (with SSMaPa - see link above) - that means: When I click on the clock an the startpage, the quickswitch window opens and I can directly select my profile!
G-Profile + SSMaPa = The unbeatable solution for windows mobile !
is there any other alarm program to replace the current alarm?
it is quite annoying to set the day since i cant remember what day it is n it doesn't show the day on the main screen. i have to go in calender, n then exit out to clock, alarm
i like the auto alarm on certain day, but sometimes i just need a once off alarm without setting the day
cheers
By all means G-Alarm! THere is also the free Klaxon, but G-Alarm is far better (and it is quite cheap anyway)...
Check it out: http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=galarm/about
G-alarm is no longer for free...but Klaxon is and it also integrates with TF3D..
I didn't say G-Alarm s for free... I said it's cheap, as it costs just around 5 euros! And it integrates into TF3D as well...

+1 : tryied Klaxon, didn't wake S2U2... Bought G-Alarm : it's excellent. Reliable, working great with TF3D, a lot of possibilities, G-sensor compatible and all this for 5€ !
hmm, not to be stingy... but i prefer free, lol
will try Klaxon then =)
