TouchFLO 3D has the option to do Automatic Vibrate according to the calendar, but I'm using the default Windows Mobile 6.5 Today screen which doesn't have that feature. I'd also prefer Automatic Silent instead of Vibrate.
Are there any programs that can recreate Automatic Vibrate/Silent functionality that do not need to take over the Today screen? Apparently PhoneAlarm and PhoneWeaver are both capable, but they both need to make use of the Today screen so they are not options.
No one?
G-Profile is the most badass thing out there.
Mine automatically mutes at night, automatically turns on incoming email sounds during the day (work profile), and no email notification on evenings / weekends. Additionally, "busy" appointments switch to vibrate.

I've got the 6 tab "HTC Homescreen" plugin installed on my AT&T Tilt.
Upon installation it included "Ringer Mode Selection" as one of the (9) launcher items. I accidentally removed it and now want to add it back, but when I attempt to re-assign it in the launcher, it doesn't appear in the app programs selection assignment list.
This launcher item is the one which allows you change the phone "ringer status" (on, off, vibrate, auto), and displays four ringer status boxes (icons) to select from. This item also displays & allows you to change the default ringtone sound.
How can I can get the phone "ringer status" selection item to appear in my launcher list again?
Thanks

Ringer Mode Selection is actually a HTC Homescreen TAB
Thanks to Kavi's help via PM, I found the answer:
'Ringer Mode Selection' is actually one of the six HomeScreen TABS (Profile Tab), and not a launcher item as I mistakenly thought. I've now got the Profile (ringer mode selection) TAB back via HTC Home Customizer.

Umm just a word of caution if you use that tab and use calendar reminders. There is definitely some flakiness in the interaction between those 2 functions.
E.g. if you use calendar and have have events chime in to remind you of those events, then switch to slent or vibrate, sometimes those reminders will get shut off and wont ring even after you switch back to ring mode.
This has been a known proven issue for some time with the HTC Home app's "profiles" tab functionality. I thought it was fixed on the Kaiser, but I now know that it is still an issue. Its an issue with how it manages notifications in the WM database.
If you don't care about notifications, then it doesn't matter. But if you do, beware that sometimes you won't get your reminder notice or sound even if you switch back to ring profile after using the silent or vibrate profiles for even a short while.
I've since removed that tab from my HTC Home via the HTC Home Customizer app, and only use the Comm Mgr "Ring/Vibrate" toggle to make the switch back and forth. It works without causing the same issue above. A couple more presses, but nothing compared to missing meetings cuz the reminder doesn't fire.
Profile Tab (ringer settings) - "Sound: Automatic"
Jomo25, thanks for the heads up about the possible conflict with profile (ringer status) tab & calender reminders.
That said, can somebody tell me what the far right most 'ringer setting' called:
Sound: Automatic is supposed to do? Thanks.

Nice! So that is why that happens I could never quite place it when it happens once and a great while.
Know of any other good "touch based/home screen" profile selector?

I was browsing through my tabs on my HTC Home and clicked on the phone tab. There are 4 choices 1. normal 2. silent 3. vibrate and 4th one says automatic. What does the automatic selection do? It can't be ambient volume sound ringtone can it?

automatic profile is contigent on your schedule. if you have something marked as busy or something in your calendar, on that day the profile will automatically set to silent or vibrate. im not 100% on this feature, but thats how it works in general
Hi,automatic setting put the vibration when you have a rendez-vous in your calendar,or business reunion.
That makes sense now. Thanks guys.
Hello,
I'm looking for software which will be able to automatically turn off my ringtones and switch to silent or vibration mode during the night (example 10 pa -6 am), and than switch to normal mode (6am-10pm)
Create a calendar appt that lasts for the duration of when you want your phone to be silent and then set the profile to "automatic". That will automatically switch to "vibrate only" for all sounds during the appt. Make the appt recur everyday and it's probably best not to have a reminder pop up for it, unless you have trouble knowing when it's time to go to sleep.
O.O.
G-Profile is what u want.
http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=gprofile/about
I use PhoneWeaver.
SPB Phone Suite (commercial) or PocketZenPhone (http://www.pocketzenphone.net/PZPForum/index.php). G-profile and Phoneweaver are buggy for me.
PhoneAlarm is the best
I use CT Scheduler (not free). It features many other things, and it great!
My Kaiser has a Shifu3 WM6.5 ROM.
In this ROM, with TouchFlo Today, the reminders pop up with a white window showing the appropriate text.
Either pressing Snooze or Delete, the reminder application closes itself by calling Today screen.
Even if I was working on other application (i.e. Facebook) at the moment of the reminder.
This is a problem, as I want to use a different Today (SP Home Shell). But if SPHomeShell is enabled, the reminder application calls, when closing, anyway TouchFlo today, that is disabled, so the phone stucks with a totally white today.
So i simply ask:
1) does it exist a way (registry?) to set TouchFlo reminder to close itself calling the "default Today" (or, better, by simply closing itself not calling any different application) instead of TouchFlo Today?
2) This reminder tool only shows "Snooze" or "Delete". The problem is that Snooze has a fixed time (I suppose 5'). Standard WM reminder has a snooze menu, that is much more useful. I'd like very much to find the way of using default WM reminder instead of this one....
Thanks

Is there a way to turn off alerts/alarms coming from the S planner?
I'm planning on using Calengoo.
Won't the alerts double? One coming from S-planner and the other coming from Calengoo?
I cannot turn of the calendars in S planner as Calengoo seems to need it to be able to get calendar data from my google account (I don't want to give Calengoo my login details, thus it is syncing from my Android device which is syncing to my Google Account)
Thanks for what enlightenment you guys can give.
I, too, would love some advice on this issue. Just using Outlook and the S Calendar. What I would like to do is to turn off the spoken notifications but still receive an event notification in the notification bar. And I still want the phone to ring.
What about "Set alarms and notifications" option in s planner options accessible after pressing menu key? I can set "Alarm", "Notification", "Disabled". There is another menu entry for vibration...
Thanks. But the problem with choosing to disable it is that I no longer receive any notification. I would like a notice in the notification bar - I just don't want my notification bar speaking. I tried changing the notification sound volume to zero. That worked to silence notifications about texts (but I still get the vibrate). But my calender still speaks.
Well, I found a fix for my problem, but it won't help the OP. Turns out the phone was in driving mode and that overrode application settings.
