And are you able to switch to some of the languages that even Tasks Manila provides? For example to Czech or Swedish or so on?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lkachun9129:
Tried but no luck :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I guess thats the reason. Because by changing the language in program even the way to show date should be changed (like in US: 5/25/2009 versus for example czech: 25.5.2009). If your device supports English and Chinese you wont be able to use for example czech. Thats what I think. Anyway Chinese doesnt work for you and for me neither. Is your regional settings set to "Traditional Chinese" or something different?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Maedhros:
Hey. I just watned to drop in and say great app.

Only 1 question, how do we edit things in the task?

All I can do is make new tasks, not edit them or set times.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
Look at features working on the

first page - editting is not implemented yet :-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lkachun9129:
Unfortunately, it makes no differences when I changed my region from HK to US..... BTW, I think language is not the prime task for you. We would like to see the task editing option as soon as possible~~
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
Hi everybody,

I have the new version. I will use it for a while to find bugs and then I will put it here. Only landscape for newtask/edittask is missing - when I make it I will release it.

Changelog for release 1.2:

- sorting, filtering tasks

- slower startup but the rest should be faster

- code was rewritten into programmer-proud form ;-)

- added icons (report if it shows correctly now please)

- confirmation when deleting tasks removed

- AppToDate support

- exclamation mark at high priority tasks (no icon at low priority, should be?)

- translations to: Turkish (please update Google document, the "confirm" translation got lost), Hebrew (doesnt work for me), Chinese(doesnt work for me), Greek, Swedish, French, German, Czech, Norwegian, Hungarian, Slovak, Polish, Korean(doesnt work for me), Dutch, Arabic(doesnt work for me) and Russian ... I've added some new words please update Google spreadsheet Thanks

- new task (able to set subject, start date, due date and reminder) (others will come in next versions)

- edit task (same features as new task). You start edditing by clicking on the task

Bugs:

- there is no option to make undated task over the New task option - it is possible on the main screen when you fill the textbox and hit enter

- on phones w/o Manila the Set buttons dont work nice way

- I think its possible to make new task/edit task look better (font size, etc)

- the checkbox on the main screen overlaps the text of the task

To-Do

- landscape support for newtask and edittask

Screenshots
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gullum:
now it realy starts to look interesting :D can't wait now I tried version 1.1 but wasn't really useful without editing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tombbb:
this is the most important project other than tachi vga dialer porting...

congratulation!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NLS:
I don't use it yet, but great job nevertheless.

(I will be more tempted to test after I can have it as Sense tab)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gjeremie:
version 1.3 request

great job for the 1.2!

can you add in release 1.3 (in the task editor form):

- a button to open a list where we could check one or several categories to assign to the task

- a textbox to edit the note attached to the task

-and (only if you have the time, it's only cosmetic...) icons in task editor form, one behind the task subjet and another behind the reminder (like a small bell ...)

and I wait impatiently for release 1.3 with categories icon (i know, I'm obstinate by my categories icons...)

I believe this app can became the best task editor for our HTC...

thanx
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
yes, theres going to be Advaced button which opens new options for tasks - categories + private option + recurrence settings. The only problem I have is a space for controls. As you see the new task window is already crowded - I mean on 240x320 resolution. When I will implement landscape I will reorganize that. About the icons - its good idea. I will put it there asap.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tinus Tussengas:
The new update is really looking great! Can't wait to try it!

I just updated Dutch translation.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
I just have updated german translation.

Remark:

The german translation of "Set" is the word "Einstellen". I suppose, that it is to long for the small button. Right? Therefore I chose the usual abbreviation "Einst."
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
Yes, its for the small button which popups the date choosing dialog.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] in_da_cloud:
Nice program mistm. Works fine on HTC Elfin, slow to load though.

Otherwise, good job. Keep developing...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gullum:
I've addet danish to the google document but some danish need to take a look at it because i'm not danish
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
I suppose that in most languages the word "Set" is longer than in english

New idea:

Replace the text "Set" with the intuitive ">>". So there are no problems of length anymore :)

This is the way other apps do, e.g.:

http://www.gekonewmobile.com/shop/gekotask
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
good point. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lrodriguezle:
Added Spanish

Can´t wait your new release!

I added Spanish to the language spreadsheet.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bbonzz:
Added italian. btw, the word "set" is missing on the spreadsheet. If you add it, the italian translation is "Imposta"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Look at this posting and the following one:

suggestion:

possibility to add a note? ( like standard task manager ) :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
notes gonna be in the next release with categories and recurrence setting i guess.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] trejlu:
- New task = blank screen

- Editing task = blank screen

- Not set the Czech

- I would appreciate filter categories

- When selecting a menu still offers the editing task

- About is not a version number (ale je to asi beta stažená někde uprostřed fóra)

- The application is exactly what I need, if we manage to solve the current problems, I will certainly use it

- If you are interested, I write lessons Czech

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
are you sure you use last version? I mean the link I've posted here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5106354&postcount=104

Do you have ability to set Czech in Regional Settings in Windows Mobile?

gonna be in 1.3

Can you tell me how to reproduce this?

good point. Gonna be added in next version.

I think its quite intuitive anyway any help is welcome. Thanks for suggestions.

I dont have much time to developing due to the end of my school term so as soon as I will have some I will release the new version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lkachun9129:
where can i get version 1.2?

It looks very nice~~ especially the calendar
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
Still in tests.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] trejlu:
The address of the program I got from the forum http://www.ce4you.cz/forums/view_topic.asp?t=34710

My remarks were therefore release from this address http://www.nuc.cz/tasksmanila/tasksmanila.CAB

The official version 1.1 works without any problems.

I look forward to version 1.2 screenshots look good.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Hi, may I ask about the ongoing development? When can we test v.1.2? Something wrong?

Or better test the mentioned alternative app meanwhile?

What do you think? Thx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I will release the 1.2 today but nowadays I have a lack of time because of school :-/ I found one bug which I fixed and I have some ideas I want to implement in future. Anyway I think the development will be stopped now until the exam period is over. Sorry.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Thank you for reply and release of v1.2. Good luck for exam, if needed ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I really made the new version yesterday (or at least during the night:-)) but my internet connection didnt work so I couldnt upload it ... here it is: http://www.nuc.cz/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Thank you.

I'm sorry to mention these bugs, which make the tool v1.2 unusable:

- Not possible to switch to any language. Language enabled, but nothing happens.

- Only small WM-calendar to set date instead of your screenshot.

- Not possible to set reminder's time with fingers, no time popup.

Tested on Topaz Diamond 2WM 6.5 Sense 2.1 (Original HTC ROM)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jolas:
Thank you very much!

I was really missed tasks with HTC Sence.

Works perfect on HD!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AndrewMe:
cool app!

If somebody could point me to the link with Appointment Editor (as in manila 2.5), so that it calls directly from calendar and is finger-friendly, and that all for manila 2.1.. I would be happy forever.. :)

can somebody?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
Do you switch to language you have available in Settings/System/Regional Settings? Which language are you trying to set? It works for me.

Thats probably because you dont have Manila 2.5 and the old-fashion datetime picker is in Manila 2.1. I will think what to do about it.

same as the previous...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danusko:
Hi,

i downloaded this interface for task but i dont know if it is bug or it doesnt works for SPB Mobile shell 3.5.2 which i use.

Can you tell me pls?

thx a dakujem
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
This is coming along nicely and looks great but i dont this is a bug but found it pretty funny, when i created the task hadnt set a begin only the end.

Looks fine but when it launches the htc pop up thing it goes haywire! and the year jumps to 4501!

Thought id say but more i find it a little funny...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
As for SBP Mobile Shell: What exactly doesnt work? I dont have Mobile shell :-/

As for 4501: Yes, i know about this and I am not sure how to solve it atm. Because the datetime picker is not able to choose "no date" therefore it shows 4501 crazy year :-) However undated tasks are in database stored as 1.1.01 and the 4 thousand year is probably problem of datetime picker. I will take a look on it. If it didnt jump to 4501 but 01 year it would be nice.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I've made a simple walkaround... redownload the cab now please.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Yes, I try to switch to German (on my german ROM)

Yes, I'm using original HTC Sense 2.1.

Workaround for which issue? ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
workaround was for the 4501 year

Anyway does the message "Couldnt set language" pops up?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
No, the language seems to be set (but it isn't), I can see the checkbox for "German" is activated.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Nice work didnt have time to post 'a fix isnt really necessary' but looks great.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
that is so strange.

Try this:

1) check german

2) save settings in menu

3) exit app and run it agan

Does it do the same when you choose another language? Is your language common german? I mean do you have in Settings/System/Regional settings on your device "German" and only for example "German Austria"?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tombbb:
good to see a new version ^_^

be careful of your exam ~_~
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
I tried that, no success.

Yes.

There are several entries for german language. Mine is common German (see screenshot)

Date format is correct.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lrodriguezle:
mistm,

I have the same language problem as Tatsch... but with Spanish on my side...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] barbapappa_86:
+1 on issue on the lang.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmserver:
@mistm,

I've got a issue with 1.2. 1.1 works fine.

See pic:

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I am going to take a look on this. Guys do you remember if the testing version I've sent week ago did work with other languages?

wmserver: What regional settings do you use? English US?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmserver:
English US it is.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lrodriguezle:
I never tried, as it did not include Spanish, so I decided to fulfill the spreadsheet and wait, but if you put it online again, I'll be glad to do.

By the way, sorry not to have recognized your excellent work. Even in English only is very useful to me. I only wish this will not have adverse effects on your exams...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rumball:
I'm trying Tasks Manila on my Diamond Sun-Y ROM with Manila 2.5 and also get the small WM-calendar when trying to set the date (rather than the Manila 2.5 full screen calendar like in your screenshots). When trying to set the time for reminders/notifications there is no pop up displayed at all.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
its same thing related - when you change time the default windows datatime picker changes PM/AM ... nothing popups. Only for dates the ugly calendar window popups.

Did you see any elsewhere in Manila 2.5 the new HTC date pickup window on your device?

I am considering making the custom interface for choosing date.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rumball:
Yes...when I create a New Appointment in Manila 2.5 the new HTC date picker and time picker windows appear.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danusko:
In SPB Shell is widget "TASK" and this widget i think call TASK from system.

I use this widget on my TODAY screen. When i click on TASK it appear only cllasic task screen with wihte screen, little fonts and not very touch friendly interface.

I belived, that when you made new interface for TASK it will works also for Mobile shell.

And it doesnt work also when i call it from menu

PROGRAMS - OFFICE MOBILE - OUTLOOK - TASK.

What do you think...it will be works also for Shell?

thx
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I have good news... I had to reflash my device and I have language problem as well. It means now I can investigate it much easier! I dont have any time this week but I promiss you you can look forward a solution very soon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tombbb:
i installed taskmanila1.2 on diamond with manila2.1, and i have about 400 tasks. currently 4 tasks incomplete, but it takes about 20 seconds to open this program... i alrealy set the program to show only incomplete tasks, but i still have to wait...

the other program, ptask, in Leo forum only takes about 5 seconds to open. this is a big difference.

dose anyone have same problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] trejlu:
The application works well, but I still Czech menu.

I would like to enlarge the text and course rating, which could be collected right at the main screen and not in the menu.

Thanks, you have exams? In our day was done in January.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mkamonster:
Very nice. Did you create the Date picker and Time picker yourself? Or are you making use of some internal Manilla parts?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
HTC made their datatime picker in Manila 2.5 (for exceptions:-)) - I use this one but in future I am going to make my own probably because there are people w/o Manila.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
If you guys want to play with translations download this: http://www.nuc.cz/tasksmanila/languages.zip and extract it to the Tasks Manila install directory on the device. Overwrite all files.

I am working on the cab but there is some problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tinus Tussengas:
I've been using new version of your application for a few days now and I have to say I like it. It's really coming together. Can't wait for new versions but offcourse school comes first! ;)

Some things I've run into using the app:

- The first 3 times I started the program after installing it an error occurred causing the app to shut down. The 4th time it started normally and haven't seen the error since.

- Language (Dutch) doesn't seem to work. I also extracted the zip you gave into program files/tasks manila but this didn't have any effect. But it didn't ask me to replace any files either so maybe I've extracted it to the wrong folder?

- Seems the app doesn't remember the "show only active tasks" setting. When I select this option it filters the tasks but when I shut down the app and start it again it shows both active and completed tasks again. Maybe this is causing the slow starttime someone mentioned earlier?

And finally just some ideas:

- I noticed the "new" button doesn't have a specific function at the moment. It does the same thing as pressing "menu - new task". Maybe you can make this an "add" button instead? In that way you can quickly add a new task without having to fill in due date, category etc.

- Personally I use the "new task" button a lot more often then the "delete" button. So I was wondering if it's possible to switch these two buttons. In this way the "new task" button can be reached directly onscreen and "delete" is hidden under "menu".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I like your ideas.

Well as for the new task button ...

- When you fill the textbox and press Enter on your keyboard it adds the task without specific due/start etc.

- When you fill the textbox and press New Task it takes that text as the name of the New task

I have Touch Pro2 and I like to have New task option close. The solution would be to move New task insted of Delete and put Delete option to the menu. Because honestly I dont use Delete at all.

-------------------

About the show only active tasks - did you save your settings through the menu option?

-------------------

About the slow startup. I will try to optimalize it when I will have time. I think this should be priority now. I will do also some testing like working with large amount of tasks (400+)... I didnt do that.

------------------

Dutch Translation - I've just tried it. You have to extract languages.zip to TasksManila directory. For example if you install Tasks Manila on your Device it will be in "/Program Files/TasksManila"... there extract those directories in languages.zip so your tasks manila directory will look like this:

hope new version work it out, thx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tinus Tussengas:
New task:

I hardly use the h/w keyboard on my X1 (only with email and messenger) so I didn't notice pushing enter directly adds the task. I like the solution you're suggesting. It's exactly what I had in mind. I use delete only when I want to remove multiple tasks so I don't mind if it's hidden under the menu button.

--------------------

Save settings button:

Feeling stupid! How could I miss it! Works like a charm now. :D

--------------------

Slow startup:

Didn't really bother me at the moment but then again I don't have hundreds of tasks that need to be loaded.

--------------------

Translation:

I extracted into the right folder but not in the right way. All folders were still in the "languages" folder. Just corrected it but still doesn't seem to work. I'm using an WWE custom rom. Could that have anything to do with it? All regional settings are set to Dutch as far as I know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistm:
I think I will take a look on changes the next week ... I have lot of stuff to do now because its end of school term. Then I have holidays and then the exam period=real-hell comes :-)

These changes you suggest are just cosmetic and not difficult. What bothers me is the translation because I have no clue why it doesnt work when installing from the .cab.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Maedhros:
WOW THIS IS LOOKING GREAT!

Good job with this program!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lrodriguezle:
mistm,

I have unzipped the languages zip in the right directory. First time I switch to another (new) language, it asks my permission to run the dll (only the first time for each language). But the language keeps being English!!

I tried Spanish (my preference), Russian, German and Hungarian... to no result. The directories are there (checked), I saved the settings and I did a soft reset, just in case.

I am running WM6.5 on a Leo, ROM 1.43. Any idea?

EDIT: Sorry, sorry, sorry. Although I was running 1.2, I did not realize I had to:

1st.: uninstall

2nd: download 1.2.1 from your web site

3rd: install

AND 4th: unzip languages.zip AGAIN so it replaces the directories installed by the cab.

IT WORKS AS EXPECTED and I can switch languages. Uf!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tinus Tussengas:
Since I did everything directly on my phone yesterday I just completely removed the app and the program files folder and installed it again. And I can tell you Dutch translation works now!

But now I've found another reason to put 'delete' under 'menu'. :D The Dutch word for 'delete' is 'verwijderen' and this doesn't fit the onscreen button.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Where did you get v1.2.1. ? Is this the standardl download on the website? There is no number of version in the download.

This may not belong in this section but it has relevance.

I have a 32a HTC Sappire with the blueberry hero rom latest version installed.

lets say the following

i like the ROM but there are some programs pre-installed that i do not need or will ever use.

how can i remove from the update.zip the programs that aren't needed (ie = plurk, kkbox, twitter, peep, pdf viewer, etc...)

what can not be removed???

after that.

how do i SIGN the update.zip so i can install it to my phone.

please let me know. thanks a lot
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zapote21:
Dude

If you search for "signing" you will find the answer...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :No-Frost::
why not to remove the aps using adb???

Probably those aps are located in /system/app/ so you just should do the next thing:

adb shell
cd /system/app
ls

This will show you the current installed aps, you need to do this in order to find the name of the aps insatlled so you can later uninstall them...

Now open another adb console and do the next thing:

adb remount
adb shell rm -r /system/app/nameoftheapp.apk

Where anemoftheapp.apk is obvoiusly the name of the app you want to remove...

That should do the trick... And it's easier than having to sign a rom...
