I am using Task plus as a today plugin for showing my due tasks and appointments. Unfortunately, after a soft-reset or just spontaneous, the today plug-in disappears from the screen. Adjusting it in today options and switching the lpug-in on and off does not work. Does anyone know a solution?

Hi everyone. I did a quick search, but wasn't able to find anything. Is there an App out there that will let us see our minute usage? I used to use Nueminutes when I had a Mogul, but it stopped working, and, since TF3D is our homescreen, you wouldn't be able to see it on the Diamond anyways.
So, is there anyone out there who knows of/can make an app that will display our minute usage or make a usage tab?
Sorry if this has already been discussed
Guess not. Oh well.
you could use matsgo manila control and have chi tai dang battery status plug in running in the non tf3d today screen! ive done it before!
just to make myself clear, i dont think there is a tf3d plugin that allows you to count calls/data/sms but there is a 'normal' today plugin (i.e. battey status) which does!
matsogo manila control allows you to switch between tf3d and the normal today screen by a sofkey or gesture!
both apps are available on the forum
hope this helps
Hi,
Ive searched and cant find an answer.
I use G-Alarm for alarm purposes, but in win6.5 and using the titanium today skin, it doesnt show that the alarm is active and what time the alarm is set to go off at.
On the lock screen its the same case.
I think it would be great to be able to use the space on the lock screen to display the alarm, e.g. the alarm time, how many hours/minutes remaining and thats it.
It shows appointments, but not alarms, I cant undestand why the hell this is.
Anyone have any recommendations?

Looking for the same thing but havn't found a solution :-(
Use S2U2 as lockscreen, it's full configurable.
You can also try "iPhone Today" (instead of Titanium) - it's very usable.
I know S2U2 very well because i used it on my Topaz and its a really good program. But im trying to avoid all the extra apps and instead tweak Windows Mobile and Sense to my needs ;-)
Hi Folks
Just wondered if anyone has any suggestions for full size widgets for the hero?
Basically my home screen has clock,weather widget and a couple of other freqently used widgets.Swipe to the left and I have a full page of 16 other widgets.Swipe to the left again and i have a full size music player.Last swipe to the left and i have the full size bookmarks widget. If I swipe right from my homescreen then I have my camera album and thats it! The next two pages are empty
Now i for some reason dont like it I dont like to see the unused space but i'm struggling to find anything to put in them. I dont use twitter and not bothered about the footprints widget.
I have had a search on the net for something but as of yet been unsuccsesfull.
Anybody have any suggestions? Dont matter if its a novelty kind of widget or whatever....I'll give it a look!
Thanks in advance
Gaz
I too currently have an empty page
Mainly due to the fact bookmarks widget is not working on latest build of VillainRom.
Can't think of anything to place on that page at all.
The more widgets then generally the slower the UI and faster the battery drains. If you don't desperately need something there I would leave it blank.

Is this just because there is more on the screen graphically or do the widgets themselves slow it down? I was under the impression that the widgets are only shortcuts to the programs and so obviously use no memory untill launched!?

since widgets are "active" shortcuts they are executed the moment you go to the screen they are on. how would it display weather or news when it is a "dead" shortcut?

The weather widget that i use is the one on the clock so not an independant widget. I just assumed that this one was opened when i first chose this clock and just stays open.
Please go easy on me here as im still getting to grips with the whole 'mechanics' of the phone.
So all widgets that i have on my phone scene are active? Most (if not all) are just executable programs like google maps,google sky maps,shazam,flixter,meebo etc and as far as i'm aware dont require to be constantly updated via internet connection(unless opened).
Why would these be active?
If they are constantly active then why would people use task killers? It seems pointless if they are always active anyway!
Like i said,I'm sorry if this is all a bit basic but would be nice to now how it all works as i have actually noticed my phone seems quite slow lately and for some reason notifications on the top notification bar aren't disspearing when i have read my messages etc.
Maybe i have too many active widgets?!?
Thanks

you have to make a difference between a widget and a shortcut to an app. the clock is a clock widget with integrated weather support. it is triggered if you go to the screen it is on and by time change (to display the correct time for example). as it has the weather feature it can also activate the background weather service.
a shortcut is the same thing as those on your windows desktop. it is nothing else than a link to the app, and doesn't do anything until you click on it.
check the way you add a shortcut and a widget, after pressing the + sign you have to choose which one you want to add.
It is a gray area as to what a widget is and not all widgets are active. The weather one is active. So is the one I use to give me London Tube status - as others have said they update as soon as you switch to the window (in fact I thought they did it in the background all the time, but i may well be wrong on that).
On the other hand the widget that switches BT or wifi or GPS on or off are not active unless you touch them then they do what is required (switch it on or off) and then become inactive. In reality they are a little mini-programme in their own right, but they are still called widgets.
Shortcuts are not the same as widgets - all they do is open a programme when touched - so Google maps etc are not widgets they are shortcuts.
I have filled all of my screens - any space left after the widgets is now filled with shortcuts to programmes I use most often. Doesn't appear to slow down the phone at all.
The Calendar Widget on my tablet isn't changing to reflect the day of the week.
The main time and date one updates properly but the widget doesn't - a removal and replacement on the home page fixes for the day but next day same thing.
I have looked everywhere for a setting I have missed but can't see anything.
Can anyone shed some light on this and or suggest a better calandar widget that will update as required. i don't need anything too complex just something to keep track of a few appointments etc./
thanks
Are you using the regular calendar widget that is installed by default?
Yes, I am.
Sorry, I should have made that clearer in my question.
Last night after after exiting an app my one of my folders was missing and the apps were spread out through my phone, i mentally noted that this incident is strage.
Furthermore this morning i'm browsing BaconReader and when i exit the app all of my customization of icon folders and apps on the home screens are missing, the phone reset itself to the default layout when i first powered on the phone.
Is anyone else having this problem?
