Today screen vs EXE and icon type

If I use the Today version of the app and tap "edit icon" there is no type of "clock" available. If I run the EXE version and tap "edit icon" the clock option is there and I can select it.

The clock icon shows with the current time on the icon if I run the EXE version but if I run the Today version the time is not showing on the icon.

I have v1.3 installed. Any idea why the difference?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] j101399j:
Try reinstall; I just tried becasue I only use the todday plug in version and clock and clock&alarms are both there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dgmorland:
Yes, reinstalling brought back the missing options. I am not sure why it was behaving differently in the Today version vs EXE version. I put back my saved settings.xml and icons.xml after reinstalling and everything is working ok including time showing on the clock icon.

I hope to have news by you ;)[/QUOTE]

mmm... I was tryng changing code to add this new feature by myself .. but...

after the changes nothing works :( .. not even the feaures working before :D

the information:

HKLM\System\State\Connections\Cellular\Count

count is a Dword

count = 0 disconnected

count = 1 connected

is exact for sure but..... but I'm not so smart in writing code....

I'm afraid I must wait for some real developer's implementation :o

cheeeeeeers

You can have an icon that execute a .ink file. If you managed to launch Opera with an ink file and some specific command line, then you could have an icon that opens directly GMail or any other specified bookmark in Opera.:)

Unfortunately, I don't know Opera command lines, but you should be able to find them.

There are some Today plugins to display only the clock.

Here is one for instance : http://project.ionized.googlepages.com/pdc

Since iPhoneToday is a Today plugin, you can have several Today plugins running together with iPhoneToday.

For instance, I am using the SPB Weather Today plugin together with iPhoneToday.

I've got a little problem: Any ideas why my calendar icon does'nt update?

Today it shows the same day like yesterday (eg. wednesday the 13th, and not thursday the 14th).

The only way to update is to close the plugin and and re-open, or to edit the calendar icon by pressing "ok" without any changes in the settings.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] moesfeld:
I have this problem too. My workaround is to restart my device after 00:00 (I do that anyway for clearing some ram on my buggy ks20)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] robsno:
I have problems on my machine if I change any of the icons everything works until i have to restart the phone and then it freezes during reboot even if I do it all though the program itself. Has anyone else come across this and found a fix. All is well again as soon as I copy the default config files back but I have tried editing the icons 10 times and each time it works until rebeoot and the freezes during the reboot process.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MiToNiOeS:
It is true, I think that is what the problem is. The icons are repainted only when there is a change (notifications), i must add that if there is a change of date is also updated the icons

sorry :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dlac87:
uh...help?

my phone (vogue) now freezes on startup. Is there some kind of WM safe mode I can use or something...? Because right now, I can't do ANYTHING on my phone. As soon as my today screen is up, the phone is frozen. Can't do a thing.

EDIT: Okey doke - did the hard reset. gonna install one of the many 'safe mode' programs I discovered as a result of this little adventure. Thanks for that, at least...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] HaiLe512:
I do not remember the required registry setting but you can do the following

a. Install Advance Config and you can select to have time or batttery to be displayed on today top bar. This program is in XDA and you can do a search to find it.

b. Meanwhile, you can go to CLock and alarms setting tab, go to more, and select display clock....this will show the clock on all programs

I installed and now use 0.4.1 and love it. Can you explain how I update to .6 to get all of its advantages? I see there is an update cab, but you don't explain how to use it and still maintain my current setup.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MiToNiOeS:
if you want to change nothing (only to get better performance), only install the new cab and reactive the plugin (or softreset that is more easy)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iain2510:
Download the new (0.6) CAB and install it - it wont change any of your icon or setting folders (at least it didn't when I installed;))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] drjim:
Thanks for the quick reply. I'll try it out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] robsno:
I see why my phone was freezing on re boot now, by copying the XML files to the PC and trying to open them in IE an error is produced on the ICON file showing illegal white space in the xml giving the line number and character. I deleted the line in notepad and then it opened in IE without error, copied it back to the Phone and it reboots without issue if I reset it now. The only think I wish it that it had landscape so when the phones keyboard is out and the screen goes to landscape it will fill the screen. Lesson learned check the XML in IE for errors if it freezes (Once it lets you back in of course) Many Thanks for an excellent package it is developing well. One or two observations:

It would be nice to have the calender displaying the number of appointments due that day as this does not seem to work.

landscape (maybe a settingsL enabled when it switches to landscape) The ability to have a home button or use a button on the phone to return to the home page.

An error check so that if the XML is invalid it does not freeze

keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] drjim:
Just installed and tried .6. Much faster and smoother.

Well done!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
Thanks... Got it...

Dito... the calendar doesn't seem to work... Even with appointments counter... Mine shows a one, when a new mail is recieved... Already checked if I had set the wrong type, but it was ok... ??? :confused:

My Icons

Hi all

I made myself some framed icons (34) based on the simpleNegro icon (96x96px PNG).

I wanted them to be all framed nicely ;)

So here they are !

The zip includes

- the 34 icons in PNG24 format 96x96 px

- the .PSD base if you want to make your own icons

- the ICONS.XML if you can't be bothered to make any changes ;)

- the background I used

- 3 screenshots

iPhone Today is great! Ive been keeping a keen eye on this forum, (although I dont comment much) and its absolutley great! Thanks for all your great work, this plugin really makes WM finger friendly, easy to use and has a distinct advantage over those iphoneys :)

A few queries though..

-On startup with the height adjustment (I have a WVGA Acer M900) there is always a green bar at the top even though the height is perfect, but if you rotate the screen to landscape and back to portrait, it corrects itself? Any way to fix this glitch?

- Also with the background, I have scoured the internet for a while trying to find the plain iPhone background with the silver outline for the bottom static icons, does anyone have one at all?

I've tried all kind icon resolutions (48x, 96x, 128x) better never look as fine as in the PC. Why?

What kind of resolution is the best for iphone today?

Thank you
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Livven:
Windows Mobile has different standard icon sizes - they are 45x45px for 96dpi (W)QVGA and 90x90px for 192dpi (W)VGA.

The actual included icons are 90x90px.

quick question. is this made for wvga. i have tp2 installed it and the 4 buttons that are supposed to be at the bottom are about halfway up. is there a way to fix it or is this not for wvga.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dgmorland:
Yes it works on WVGA. If you ran the auto setup the first time it ran it should have set itself up for WVGA. If not, you can edit the height in the settings.xml file, the restart. If you make the height too big you will see a scroll bar appear.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hunter7773:
ok ty i got it now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
If your icons are .png files with transparent layers, they will look bad because Windows Mobile can't manage it properly.

If it is your problem, and you are not interested in transparency because you use a black background, you should edit your icons and convert them to .bmp with black background.

But you mustn't use MSPaint to do that, because it wouldn't look nice.

You can find many iReflect icons converted to bitmap here:

Vibration LED selectable

Hi all,

I have got the today item dll modified so that the vibration led is selectable.

You need to remove (uninstall) the current one before you install this one. For some reason it's not smart enough to see the old one and you end up with two if you don't.

Make sure you back up your icons, icons.xml and settings.xml.

Install the new one then in the options (click on hold on a blank part of the screen) you have a box where you can select the LED. For the Omnia it's 11.

Rainbow Apple Icon for Manila Today Page tab

Thanks to the collaborative efforts of paryav and bbonzz, two great things have happened with Manila Today Page and iPhone Today.

First, paryav "broke the code" enabling him to add a Today tab to the tab slider in Sense 2.5:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=508102&page=87

And, for us iPhone Today devotees, bbonzz has created a very sporty rainbow apple icon to replace the MTP Today icon on the slider.

Check out the attached pic and .zip.

Here's what you do:

1. Install MTP (if you haven't already done so).

2. Turn off Sense (otherwise you won't be able to perform step 3).

2. Decompress .zip and install manila files to \windows.

3. Under \windows delete the file ManilaFull.xml.

4. With a registry editor, delete the key \HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration.

5. Activate Sense and reorder your tabs (by deleting xml and reg key you'll revert to default order).

Many thanks to paryav and bbonzz! Isn't Internet collaboration the best!!

The screen height will not automatically adjust to maximum, so you need to set it. try making your screen height too big, it will at least show you which bottom bar removal program works, then you can adjust the height

as im wanting 1 to replace the start menu

and 1 to replace the htc cube.. and if any1 can tell me how to replace the htc cube with iphonetoday id be gratfull.

also is there an easy way to put a link to a contact with and for it to show the pic ? so u can press it and it starts dialing the number ?

thanks !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] j101399j:
Yes...

#1 to switch the screens and/or settings you need to use a mortscript that first swaps the files (icons.xml and settings.xml from one location to another) then resets the today screen. Look for my screen swap script in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4361829&highlight=screen+swaP#post4361829

#2 I don't know about the cube, sorry

#3 Also, using a picture of your contact, create an icon of each contact you want to call (Has to be setup before hand). Then follow the FAQ's, post 3, question 12 (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4238166&postcount=3). This will dial the number directly and as soon as you press the icon.

this might be the answer to your question... i have use it since v 0.9 lolz... and if you click the faqs link on the 1st page you will find it... this is the old way of configuring the icon... the new way also work... just download the vjdialer.exe. make a new icon and set the phone number as the parameter

3. How to create a link to a phone number

I found using vj555 phone tools, you can have an icon call a phone number. You can download the phone tools here:

http://www.vijay555.com/

Just make sure you aim at the dialer.exe and set the phone number as a parameter. For Example

<icon name="Home" image="home.png" exec="\program files\vijay555\vjdialer.exe" parameters="8881234567" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>

When you hit the button, it will automatically dial that number. Remember no dashes in the phone number.

Hi everybody.

2. I think the quality of the icons in front of other programs (samsung widgets, Spb Shell, Manila...) is much lower. Why? Is it possible to increase the quality of the icons?

Thank you all.
