Hi,
i wrote this little calendar plugin for myself. Cause some other people find it useful, too i'll post here the actual english version.

Bugs removed:
- wrong char at the end of the clock
- wrong day colors if week starts on sunday
due to some feature requests it would be great if someone could tell me how to open PocketOutlook on a specific date. I didn't found any info on how to do this.
Thanks in advance,
Andre
Download Page at rotlaus.com
Thanks Rotlaus - it's a great plugin
Some questions/requests:
1 - Will you make the sources available? And, if not:
2 - Can you add some options for calendar and clock format? (I'd like to be able, i.e., to show always the leading zero for hours)
3 - Can you make the max font width bigger than 60 ?
Thanks again for the plugin
its nice to see some custom calender controls appearing on the PPC...
the guys over at Practisoft (www.practisoft.co.uk/practix.htm) are currently building a fully functional CF.NET version of their calender control (so ive been told!)
i downloaded their windows version and had a play about with it, its pretty impressive - ill be keeping my eye out for the CF.NET version!
This small soft is ỉmpressive
Kryptonic - I was speaking to David Goon from Microsoft at the Modaco party, and he said that Microsoft considers it unwise to use CF for today plugins (because of the overhead of running CF from Today). Hence, for the first time in my short years I've started learning C++.
This plugin is beautiful though! Keep up the good work.

Hi,
Rotlaus, this is very nice app, thanks.
Would mind making one that starts the week on Saturday!
Regards,
ksasat
Hi Rotlaus,
Sorry to bring this back up (not sure if you are still developing it) but great today plugin you got here. I was wondering if there is any chance you can add the option to right-aligned calendar, date, etc? I'm asking because I have the calendar on the right hand side but when I flipped to landscape mode, the calendar would be around the middle since it's not right-aligned. If you can add this option, that would be great!
Also, are there plans to make this WM5 compatible? I am using a Sprint PPC6700 (HTC Apache). The plugin works but for some reason, it does not automatically come up after a soft reset. I would have to go into the today plugin menu and unselect it and select again before it shows up. Not sure if it's a WM5 thing or its just my device.
Anyways, looking forward to hearing from you!

fyi, i'm running this on my 6700 also and am not having any problems with it coming up after a soft reset.
great program
I want to say thank you. this is a much needed program but im having the same wm5 problem. Thank you again you have answered my prayers for a calendar program for the today screen that is very functional!

Great Program, Alarm plugin?
I would like to say thet this is one of the best solutions for my wizard.
So simple but nice to have a big clock.
What i liked about the build in date plugin is that when i tap it it goes to the alarm setup.
Do you think it is posible to have this option in your app. so i can set an alarm and also see a bell. maybe even the alarm time?
Great work though, thanks
hi, would it be possible to choose the font of the digital time clock?
thank you.

No, this is not possible. If you want a custom clock / calendar consider to use the rltoday plugin and make a 'rlCalendar' Skin for it.
well, too bad, i'll try the rltoday plugin again...thanks.
how this program works
Greetings,
Can you tell me how this program works, i don't know how to start after i installed it, i even checked in today item but i didn't found it.
Can you tell how to work this application, i own imate k-jam.

Normally it should appear after install in the today items dialog. How was you aproach to install?
THANKS
Greetings,
I just install both of your application simultaneously, and nothing happened i did not find any plugin, even after restarted in both ways. If I'll reinstall will it work.
Thanks for quick and kind response.
i got it
Greetings,
I just install it in main memory and it worked, Thanks.

Cause of low memory space i need to know how many users prefer a today plugin instead another.
Ps: If is Others (must have similar today functions of the softwares in the poll) , please write something about it!
Thanx for your contribute and sorry fotr my BAD english!
SkizZO: that's a very big question. What do you want your plugin to do? Many of us use many different plugins for very different reasons.

I generally use cLaunch as a launcher, or my own plugins. But if you want to read about different plugins, please have a good long read here and here.

I know I know (...i've forget claunch!!!)
You have to install ONE of this Plugins, and i want to discover which is most used by Magician users.
As a task closer, I use my VJOkButt. It's not perfect, but it works well for me. For launching, I use cLaunch. With SmallMenu as a startmenu replacement, that's pretty much everything I need.

and i would to change this "configuration"
@vijay555: i am talking of Today Plugin that put icons on the screen (and others individuals functions)
I use Resco explorer's Plug in.. I find it very nice and light... it shows battary, memory..etc, also allows you to add your own apllications shortcuts into the today screen....
very nice one indeed

Currently ?
- JGUI Zodiac Date (jeus for the date, and it doesn't pop up anything if you accedently tap it )
- tAgenda (used to have Tasks, Inboy and CalenderPlus, tAgenda makes all three obsolete)
- Oh, and Nakka's TDLaunch, because it let's can configure Iconsize and margins !
Not really a Today Plugin, but it replaces Todays info perfectly : W-Tools ResInfo (yes, Battery stats, Storage and Mem gauge in the Tray! It even shows charging )
My taskmanager is PocketNav, and i use the camerabutton as TodayToggleOFF and the memobutton for TodayToggle (Hi Vijay ! Great tools ! Normaly i would have taken a dozen pictures of side of my pants !
Now nothing really serious happens if the buttons get pushed accedentaly!)
Wow, someone actually uses TodayToggle?!
There's a name I haven't head for a looong time
I like it, but I will really have to think of something useful to do with that app some day!
V
Well, it's usefull enough for me.
I used to have "Today" under a button, but always shutdown the PPC afterwards, so.......
And if i use TTN5, i don't want to PPC to trun of, hence....
AND i always had a problem with accendently pressing the side buttons, and now the at least don't open "Tasks" or like i said, worse; the camare and starts shooting...
Btw, i tried Hidestart, but it doesn't seem to do anyting but temp. show time and batt %....
I'm still looking for all kinds of "Thumbs only" or "Thick fingers" solutions, i use my PPC a lot 'one handed' or in the car...
Espec. setting snooze to 15 min. or so in the car is considdered 'reckless driving'
I haven't developed HideStart any futher than a very early preview a long time ago. I've got some ideas about changing the way notifications are presented, particularly in VJSihaya, but I still like the idea of HideStart.
However, I think that when you "ghost" reminders, they still try to silently activate themselves from time to time, which causes your current app to lose focus, which is irrititing if you're typing something. I thought it was a bug in my code until I realised this. However, I still use it to ghost reminders from time to time when I'm too busy to snooze them all
It's possible some code I wrote for the upcoming release of VJOkButt (used to get around incoming call notifications) might be of help here... but HideStart is not a priority right now unfortunately. I actually just developed it for my own use in a modified version so that I could switch between Start Bar, New Bar and ToggleToday. It shouldn't really have been released, but I thought the reminder remodeling code was a useful idea to demonstrate... more later, I've got work to do

So do i, if it worked If i only could find a decent prorgamming/scripting language for the PPC. Although Mortscript is pretty nice, it misses so features....
And i'm not really a programmer, more like a scripter... Maybe i should take some time to dive into VB or eVB (I can do quite nice things in Acces on the desktop !)

No prob, i just see whats floating a round and use it if possible. I don't ask around to create solutions for me...
I was wondering if there is a today plug in that will allow me to write or type my own message and show up on my today screen permantly (and allows me to change it through settings)?
Doesnt thebuild in tasks plugin work for you?? Or you want a more "post-it" notes kinda feel??
I just want like one line on my today screen to write whatever I want....for example......like the owner informations with phone number is 2 lines.....I want to disable that and write my own information in one line.....doesn't have to be owner info....just anything I want.....it's kinda hard to explain.....and I want to to be able to use chinese characters to write too.....

tbito, this was exactly what i was thinking of recommending to kiru...and i can confirm that it works with wm2005. i'm using a mio a701 and this is one of my plugins.
Yes, NotesToday is one of my staples. I think it's very useful.
I tweaked the default skin slightly to allow me to minimise it to a dot, (just above the weather plugin)

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and then maximise it to normal:
I didn't end up using it much, but nice idea, well implemented, and well worth the $5.
V
hey vijay, very interesting the way you made it look so small and efficient! mind sharing it? :wink: interesting little application; although i don't use it as much it's good as a quick scratch pad for all occasions...
Someone just emailed me about the skin.
I've found a copy on my ftp - I haven't used the plugin for a while, because I'm still migrating my setup to WM5 and deciding on new plugins.
But hopefully this is the skin shown:
http://www.vijay555.com/vj/!tools/notestodayskin/notestoday_skin_new.zip
I modified the skin to take almost no room, but be stylus selectable, but particularly selectable with the dpad. I can't remember if I had to edit the registry, but basically you can switch minimised and maximised mode by scrolling down the today screen with the dpad and clicking enter. It'll shrink/expand accordingly

Hi Vijay,
I Guess this is off topic. But on one of the screenshots your have an extra blue bar underneath the start button. With two arrow vertical up anddown at the start and sms, phone, and bluetooth etc. in it. I also saw some sort of profiles program with the same arrows in a later screenshot. with seems like profiles to me.
Are those programs the same and if yes, which program is it? I'm tried several programs Pocket Zen phone and WM Profiles. But wasn't happy because the vibrate function didn't work properly on my wizard.
Let me know, thanks.
Cheers
Shah
Shah, the blue bar near the top in my 18 August 2005 screenshots is an early version of my PhoneAlarm skin. This was refined into the one you can see in my 5 April 2006 screenshot, at the top of the screen (being used via my VJToggleToday program).
This is used to select profiles (where the normal "Vibrate" icon is at the top of the screen, clicking this brings a drop down menu with my profiles, Work, Home, Silent, FlightMode)
PhoneAlarm is excellent, generally. Profiles are a very basic feature on any phone, and it's mindboggling that it's not a standard feature, but I like PhoneAlarm, and Bruce, the author (you can also see my slightly hacked version of AlarmToday as well in the screenshots).
My 5 April 2006 screenshot also shows claunch at the bottom (apologies for the stupid icons, I lost some icons when I changed phones), being used to change PhoneAlarm profiles with my thumb. So I can make calls/send SMS using VJPhoneTools, change profiles (PhoneAlarm), and launch selected apps all from the same plugin.
V
Vijay, do you not find PhoneAlarm is resource-heavy?
Also, is that skin on your home page? (I've had a look and can't see it)

Hi Guys,
First: THANKS YOU vijay555 for giving me the skin files! (I'll mail you later with my findings, regarding VGA and landscape use)

Thanks in advance.
Cheers!
Puzom:
I may have the skins at home. Frankly, it's easy to write your own. The standard skins are nothing exciting!
Webreaper:
My phonealarm skin is towards the end of the first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27331&highlight=vjtoggletoday
I've used PhoneAlarm for pretty much my whole year on XDA devs, and never found it to be a problem on resources. There are simpler ways of doing what it does, but it's useful, and gives me easy control of profiles etc. Bruce is filling it up with stuff I can't imagine needing, like cell based profiles etc, but I'm happy with the basics - notifications, mail count, profiles etc.
PhoneAlarm or a similar app is essential IMHO for effective use of the phone.
I've had trouble with AlarmToday since upgrading to WM5, but the old WM2003 version was flawless and very useful too.
V
Thanks Vijay. Your skin looks the simplest and neatest I've seen.
I really liked the idea of the cell-based profiles, in particular for things like enabling wifi for when I'm at home, but disabling it when I'm at work. Unfortunately, my house and office are both on the same cell.

That's WM6 running on there, with what looks like the HTC Cube. Check out the Wizard Mobile 6 forum for more info on running WM6 on yours.
Nope...
Hey Sam,
I just checked... This is not the cube. It's some other type of plugin and I just can't figure out which.
By the way, would you use this one or actually go with touchflo? I know it might be one big step up, but there's just something about too much "touching of the screen" that bothers me quite a bit...
Phil
Looks like the HTC Touchflo/cube, HTC home, HTC Audio Manager and some SPB thing (either mobile shell or pocketplus)?
tell me more...
Hey Draw,
I thought so too at first. But then I figured it's something else. So if it's not the cube or the touchflo, what can it be?
Damn, I'd really like to upgrade my 8125 to the best software. Aside from this one, which do you think is the best?
Phil
A lot, if not all, of what you see there can be mimicked with a combination of the following apps:
rlToday, see also their forums for many skin examples, and how to use this and the other two items i'll mention here...
mortscripts
sys2reg
While rlToday isn't being updated any more, the utilization of mortscripts led to the creation of sys2reg, which is essentially an entire library of mortscripts. Mortscripts can be called from within rlToday like any other program. Some people throw in Vijay555's tools as well... The mortscript library is capable of mimicking a lot of the dynamic information display seen in HTC's more interesting interfaces, as well as a lot of the stuff being done in the iPhone's home screen. Mimicking harder things like the animation associated with the touchflow cube is much harder, but I'm sure someone has made it work...
About touchflo...
Alright Myr,
This is where you might be able to help me out...
I decided to install touchflo on my wizard. I upgraded it and the rom to WM6 with IPL/SPL 2.26. I got the Touflo RUU G4 version and tried to install...
Unfortunately, it's giving me what I call the screen of death. That screen that has multicolored band and is a frozen image. I have to then pull the battery out and restart it. It then goes back to wm6.
I've erased all the extra programs on the phone, the htc home plugin, the 6 button plug-in and even the battery status plugin. Still a problem.
Now what do I do? By the way, I tried to install all the stuiff you mention in the last post, bu they sort of all failed... Now I'm focussing on Touchflo.
Phil

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry, Phil. That's where you lost me. I'm still running my stock WM5, and only recently bothered unlocking the SPL so I can upgrade if something really tickles my fancy. To be honest (and to be consistent in my comments) I probably won't update to WM6, but I wanted the option, just in case. In your case, that's the change I would suspect the most. Try going back to your stock OS.
I run HTC Home on my wm5, and only had to sacrifice the weather page (I use a much preferred Mortplayer for music, and so didn't even count turning off the audio manager tab as a loss). With a shortcut in the app launcher to weather watcher, I only added one tap to getting my weather report, so "who cares?"
Just to illustrate my point about not needing to upgrade...here's my screen, with the four tabs I left active...
(I goofed one of the tabs, the app launcher...will fix later, or not at all)
very cool!
Hey Myr,
How'd you do that??? By the way, being the persistent person I am; I finally got touchflo working on my wm6 phone. It's weird that it needed was to hold the USB button (left softkey) on the phone during the screen of death... And then it proceeds to activate the installation. Don't ask, I just lucked that one!
Anyways, is that screen touchflo? Or it that 6-button htc home plugin? I had to sacrifice my battery status plugin... It seems to give me problems everytime I installed it on touchflo; any idea why?

It's the HTC Home plugin, but I've modified it using the HTC Home Customizer from pocketemu.com to only have 4 buttons, and to change the appearance a bit.
Below that is rlToday, a programmable UI that's running some neat tricks. For example, I can tap the antenna and toggle wifi, and tap the BT symbol to toggle that. Below that is just the stock appointment plugin.
BTW, there are some that have modified rlToday to act and look like the HTC Home plugin. It's a bit slower than the actual one, because it's reloading the home screen, but it's effective in WM5. The actual Home plugin works much faster though.
Thanx for the info...
Hey Myr.
Thanks a lot for the info. But I'm not going to try to add anything to my phone as of yet. Not until I can solve the calnot.exe / clocknot.exe / reg??? problem.
Simple, it's driving me nuts! It actually invades my screen, sometimes freezes my phone... I've hard reset my phone twice, reinstalled the touchflo / cube software and ried several patches. No luck... Do you know what can be done to remedy this problem?
Phil
Nope, sorry. Try searching these forums, especially the WM6 forum for Wizard. If no love, post your error messages/symptoms there (this is a generic wizard forum, and you've loaded wm6, so you really need to ask people who've done what you've done).
Thought you might like to know, everybody's favourite FREE wm6 alarm replacement has been updated. It's way better than the in built alarm tool. Check it out at :
http://www.spoontools.com/index_files/Page1220.htm
Whats new in v2 :
1. Recurring Alarm
2. Save settings on close
3. Support for both mp3 and wav files
4. New snoozer that also plays the songs (instead of opening Media Player)
5. More snooze options
6. Tray icon for easy access to the SpoonAlarm from the today screen
7. Auto start on star-up.
8. Bugs fixes

Quick questions:
Is it customizable?
Doesn't seem to work very well on Diamond... when I do a restart it pop ups when I'm typing my Pin code... and then The icon is hiding 'behind' TouchFlo .. so I cant get to it... and nothing happens when I try to start it in the Start menu...
And I cant chose any alarm sounds....
Anyone else having problems with Diamond and SpoonAlarm?
ok
on ie not see the image but i can download it.
testing....
thanks
Ironically, I never heard of this program until yesterday and downloaded the previous version yesterday. It seemed call but it kept going off every 3 minutes. I said dismiss but it just kept going off so I uninstalled it. But it keeps going off, even though it's uninstalled. Thankfully it stopped for now, but I think it may happen again. How can it keep going if I uninstalled it?
Nice but I don't like the tray item. When launching the app for the second time it won't show up, you have to use the tray item. I use Throttle Launcher so the tray is hidden, which makes the app quite unusable.
SpoonAlarm 2.0
I think there are some issues with Diamond, a friend of mine already reported it's not working very well for him too.
I will check it out and try to fix the problem.
Can you explain the tray icon problem please?
Thanks!
Gil.

Thanks for your feedback,
I thought people will actually like the tray icon...
Any suggestions how I can enable easy access to it without the tray?

Thanks for your feedback,
I thought people will actually like the tray icon...
Any suggestions how I can enable easy access to it without the tray?

Have a way to link it to the taskbar clock, or the user can create a shortcut in whatever launcher they use.
Thanks.
So I think what I will do is to give it as optional configuration.
Will update you as soon as it is fixed.

I too hadn't heard about your program until today - and it seems great, except for the tray icon...
There are many places you can allow the user to place the icon:
Tray
Control Panel
Start Menu Panel (main)
Start Menu -> Programs
If you could create an option to allow the user to create a quick access shortcut in one or more of those locations, then I think you'll probably make everyone's day.
Other than that, the application looks much nicer and more powerful than the default WM clock/alarm utility. Great job!
Looks good , like to see the update with a short cut to. Thanks for your hard work .

Possible to set multiple alarms ?
Not working
I was looking forward to this program but it doesn't work for me.
a- I can't use the tray icon. I NEVER look at the today screen.
b- I can't select an MP3. It doesn't show any.
I need to be able to run it from a shortcut.
I am hoping it will work soon. I'll even donate $10 if it works.
Thanks,
Jeannette

Currently the default one does and any alternate alarm program I get must at bare minimum, have teh same features as the default alarm, plus of course the addition creature features. So multi alarm would have to be there in order for me to use it.
I am happy with the default alarm to be honest. My ONLY grief is the lack of MP3 support for setting the alarm sounds. The SpoonAlarm looks good but if teh curently functionality is missing at all then it does me no good and I will stick with the default alarm. I just have to convert MP3 sounds to wave and make sure they are in the windows folder, a pain but it works.
Is there a way SpoonAlarm can map to the alarm icon (next to the clock) in HTCHome? Looks like a good basic alarm app though. A lot of these alarm apps have horrible looking UI's with non touch friendly interfaces.
Hi!
I'm a longtime lurker, ever since I got my Touch HD when it first came out and I NEEDED to have an english rom instead of a dutch one. Thanks to this place, my phone runs exactly how I want it to (most of the time ).
Except for a decent app launcher. I HATE the win6/6.1 scrollist ones, allthough the startmenu after that sucked a little less. I liked the yotacenter launcher, but in the end I just ran out of space and had to hit the "all apps" button too often and scroll through a huge list.
So I wrote my own in c# under .net 3.5.
And, seeing as I got all my tweaks and fixes from you guys, I thought I should give something back; in essence a quick and dirty app launcher which does exactly what I want: organise the programs I use the most.
It's a catagory per page, has menu, contextmenu and top-scroll-bar driven UI and you can add your own background:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I wrote it to be as device independant as I knew how, but I've really only tested it on my Touch HD1, so I'm really curious as to how it runs "in the wild" (or even on any other HD ). To save some effort, I've just packaged the .exe, which should run from any location. If it doesn't, \Program Files\AppGrouper\ should do it.
It should come with a default background and an icon...for this initial release [call it a beta] I didn't create a cab, so you'll have to copy/edit an existing .lnk file to get the program to show up in the windows\startmenu\ .lnk files so you can use a launcher to launch my launcher (yeah, I get the irony ), or just start the app from the exe.
Anyway, as I said this is the first application I'm releasing to the public, so please give me some feedback I have no idea what "unknown unknowns" this app'll run into on different machines than my emulator and my own Touch HD. The only deletion the program can do is to a specifically named .xml file it generates itself, so it should be safe enough
PS: as I was entering the tags to this post, I realised that this type of software could have been made and released many times: I've only used MS's launcher and the yotacenter one, so any ideas and/or other similarities to other launchers is coincidence and a case of simultanious devellopment (or in my case, retarded devellopment ). Again, any feedback is appreciated, from bugs to implementation to "you've totally ripped off x!". 'Cause I didn't, but I'd like to know about x
Anyway, I hope someone can use this!
Nice apps. The Title Folder box ought be longer to fit the text
Hehe
Ok, so I guess I'll have to set up an auto resize routine for the textsize and the textbox ... check back in a day or two
BTW, what device did you use this on? I'm curious to know if the program works correctly on devices other than touch hd's, too.

Thanks
Thanks for sharing!
I think mortbutton can do better than this
Ok app. thanks for sharing
By default can you pick up start menu and folder under it as group?
Else I think mortbutton can do far better job than your program. + .netcf 3.5 requirment
Thanks for sharing it. Few things I noticed
while trying to add an to a folder a drop down menu reveal 3 options - the first one is to add an app, what is the second one? it is blank on my tp2?
after running an app it stays in memory. is this how you designed it? i would prefer if it closed after running an app
finally, can you list here launchers that you came across that are standalone apps, meaning they do not sit in memory or eat CPU. i am looking for something like that with folders/tabs like yours and self-close after use.
thanks for sharing. i have one single question. i have installed it on my herald, but i cannot add more then one app to a group. am i missing something?
Sweet launcher! Thank U
I like your application!
As being an anti manila user Until now I was addicted to Program Finder plugin (attached) running on the Today Screen. Unfortunately the Today Screen does not have the SIP toggle in the bottom bar plus sometimes the Today Screen needs a refresh, due to Program Finder being an very old program; its messing up the Today Screen.
Therefore I searched the whole internet and finally after searching for 1 year I found [attachment]ToggleInputPanel.exe[attachment]. I'm executing programs via icons by running Easy Today Launcher.
Your application is a welcome alternative, thanx again! o/~
