Calendar softkey - how to default to month view? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Everytime i press the calendar softkey it defaults to day view, i then have to change it to month view. Checking the calendar later the view will revert to day view. I have tried changing my outlook view on my pc to month view (which is what i have anyway) but this has no affect.
Is there a reg tweak for this?

yes, there is. I use Agenda Fusion, the app for the week view is \Program Files\Agenda Fusion\FusionViewWeek.exe. This has to go in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open. Don't remember if I had to do a soft reset after changing the value.
:arrow: Be advised: This only works with Agenda Fusion; for other software, use the appropriate path and file name.[/b]

thanks for your help but i thing you have misunderstood my request, i would prefer to continue using the standard calendar that comes pre-installed on the device rather than use a third party app. I just want it to default to month view when i open it.[/quote]
Yes, I understood you. I don't know how the internal calendard handles week and different views; if it's with a different .exe, you can use this solution. Otherwise, try switching to a different view and look at changed settings in the registry.

that sounds like a good idea, where in the registry would you recommend i look? (i can make changes to the registry but i just dont know where everything is if you know what i mean)

Make a shortcut to:
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar -vm

Good tip vijay
If you want to map left softkey to this link - then place link in \windows say 'Calendar Month.lnk'
and then edit registry
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112\
'open' value name = ''\windows\calendar month.lnk''
and soft reset

Calendar month view cab
Always have month view appear when you press calendar softkey
I put together a cab that will automatically do this for you.
Install and soft reset
also included are day view or agenda view versions - unzip to find the cab

So...
Does that mean there is NOT a reg tweak we can implement? I would rather the calendar ALWAYS open to month view no matter how I load the calendar.
Thanx.

Yes there is a reg tweak and it is detailed above - the cab does the reg tweak and installs a lnk file so it always opens on month view on softkey use but not on today calendar tapping. Is that what you wanted as well?

Yes.
In fact, I'm not at all interested in the softkey approach. I am just wanting a reg tweak that will force the calendar (no matter how I get to it) to default to the month view.
Thanx.

dma97701: There's no global override in the registry.
First, understand the idea: to launch the calendar, the OS runs PocketOutlook, with a command line "calendar", thus
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar
To force this to launch in month view, you need to launch
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar -vm
Now, you need to edit this wherever you want to launch the calendar from - whether that's a today screen launcher, start menu, soft key, hardware key, whatever. There's no global override in the registry.
So, to do this for the start menu, find your "Calendar.lnk" file and edit the properties of the shortcut, using a good fileexplorer like GSFinder.
To do this for the softkeys, do the above anyway, and then point the registry key
Code:
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112\
to the above Calendar.lnk.
If you JUST want the softkey method, use Mark's enclosed cab file, which will do the whole thing for you if you're uncomfortable with editing the registry.

Odd!!
I have the opposite problem! When I press the Calendar softkey it defaults to Month view - I actually want it to default to Agenda. If I tap the Today screen directly it stays in whatever view I last had Calendar in. Maybe the firmware affects how the softkey functions? I'm using the latest T-Mobile UK ROM.
Any ideas how I can set the softkey to open in Agenda view?
Cheers,
Tim

poutlook.exe calendar -va
poutlook.exe calendar [-vx] [-dx] [-new]
Parameters
-vx
Specifies the view to display. x can be a = agenda view, d = day view, w = week view, m = month view, y = year view, and l = lunar view (on builds that support lunar calendars).
-dx
Specifies the date to view. x can be either a date, or an offset in days. The date format is yyyymmdd. For example, -d20050102 represents 01/02/2005. The offset format is [-]x, where x ranges from -999 to 999. For example, -d-3 represents three days ago, and -d5 represents five days from now.
-new
Opens an edit card for a new Appointment or a new Meeting Request.

Shortcut does nothing??
Thanks for the reply. If I create a shortcut to "\Windows\poutlook.exe calendar -vm" or even just "\Windows\poutlook.exe calendar" it doesn't do anything at all. If I just create a shortcut to "poutlook.exe" it does nothing, but at least explorer recognises it as a shortcut (which it doesn't if I have any parameters after the exe at all).
I'm using Total Commander to edit the shortcut and have tried putting it in quote marks, putting the Windows folder in the path, leaving out "calendar", putting it in, adding a dash (poutlook.exe -calendar) and nothing's working! What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again,
Tim

In GSFinder it looks like this:
Code:
"poutlook" calendar -va
opening it directly in Notepad, your .lnk should look like this:
Code:
27#"poutlook.exe" calendar -va

On mine if I start the calendar with either the soft key or the hard key
and it defaults to whatever view is set in the menu.
Startup calendar, in the bottom right of the screen click on MENU/VIEW
and choose the view you want ie: Month,Agenda etc.
On mine it sticks to that view even after a reset.
Dave...

Working!
Brilliant, thanks everyone. The problem was that I hadn't put quote marks around the exe. Changed the shortcut and set the registry key and it works perfectly! Interestingly, the softkey was preset to use something called "HTCCalendar.exe" in \Windows - and that's what always defaults to the Month view.
Cheers,
Tim

thanks for all your help guys, thats exactly what i wanted.

excellant hack!! I had been wondering if there was a way to do that. The day view is useless to me. Month view is where the money's at. 8)

Mapping iContacts to dialer possible?

I am using the Nargz iPhone eten dialer, and I need to know how to map the iContacts exe to the dialer contacts button during calls, any ideas? Thanks
Ive already tried this but I guess it doesnt work for dialer skins:
* Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:M SCONTACTS
* Change "String 1" value from :MSPOUTLOOK contacts to "\Program Files\iContact.exe". (or wherever you installed the icontacts.exe to)

Hi, just downloaded i-contacts, and looks quite nice, as do a few other 3rd party contacts list. But I was just wondering does the string above basically re-map the contacts soft-button to open i-contacts instead of outlook contacts? Or is there a way to do this. IE, just want to make i-contacts (or something similar) my default program, rather than having to open it from programs every time. Just lazy I guess.
****Forget that, iContacts has done it automatically after a few soft resets *****

Change your Default Contact Manager Ver 0.01

I made it as simple as possible to change your prefered Contact Manager, my friend uses iContact, which seems quite popular here. As downloaded, the script is setup for iContact, but to change it all you have to do is edit the first 2 lines with a text editor.
Run the script and your Softkeys, and Links, all call up iContact, run again and it switches back to Office (Outlook) Mobile!
Does not support 3rd party software, such as SPB Mobile Shell, for SPB Mobile Shell support see this thread.
MortScript is requied, download it here.
I hope you find this useful!
To use:
1. Download and unpack the ZIP file.
2. Edit the first 2 lines in the MSCR file, notepad works fine for this.
set AltContactsName, "iContact"
set AltContactsPath, """\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"""
3. Copy to your device, and make a shortcut.
4. Click the shortcut and answer the "Yes or No" question.
5. Repeat step 4 to swap between the two contact managers!
Once again Great Scripting..
I installed mortscript, ran it, and it said iContact was my default, I whent back to my Today screen, pressed contacts, and it said it wasnt digitally signed, or something of the sort. So, now when I revert back, and try to change again, it wont even give me that message, it just automatically goes to Office Contact manager.
Could anyone please help me? I'm kinda new to all this..
---
Nevermind, I'm and idiot. I put the iContact folder in the device root. heh.
Also, would it be possible to change the Calendar if you change:
"set AltContactsName, "iContact"
set AltContactsPath, """\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"""
to
set AltCalendarName, "PROGRAM"
set AltCalendarPath, """\Program Files\PROGRAM\PROGRAM.exe"""

Glad you figured out the iContact, was going to suggest checking your path, as far as calendar check the calendar thread and don't forget to double check your paths.
for those that are not working do a soft reset, this should be included in instructions
as the previous one. wonderful, thank you very much.
alterantively, another way to set icontact or any other contact program without any scripting is to just go and edit this registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
and edit key #1 to the path of your program. pm contacts edits this value to make their program the default. So for iContact, do the same thing. Make sure you back it up in case you would like to go back, but it's not that difficult tho.
edit: sorry didn't know this was a toggle manager where you siwtch between default and icontacts. in either case, the registry key may be good to know, lol

How can I change the contact application on the Diamond screen ("All contcacts") to use iContact?
The script that was mentioned does not change the touchflo contacts soft button.
Is there a way to make this work for instance I'm sending an e-mail and click on add new recipient, then icontact will pop up instead of MS contacts? Even after a soft reboot, the mortscript did not seem to do this. Thanks!

Hi guys. Anyone get this working on the Omnia? I've been playing around trying to get iContact to work, with no luck.
What I'd really like to do is get the Samsung Phonebook app to be used everywhere, i.e. when create new message/email etc. From messaging, when you add a recipient it brings up the normal contacts screen - cant seem to change this.

Did anyone sort this prob. Open new email or sms message, click on the 'to' field and select contacts to open the contact manager of your choice rather than the awkqard default one ?

Remap Softkeys

I´m using pocket informant for PIM management and HD Tweaks to remap the softkeys, however, I can´t assign to any of the softkey the pocket informant contacts or calendar, only the WM.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
You need to modifye keys in the registry. Here is how I've done it on my HD (it's in french, so you may have to translate the path for your version)
Using a registry editor,
- I have assigned the label "Agenda" to the left soft key :
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeLSKText="Agenda"
- I've assigned the week view to the key :
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeLSKPath="Windows\menu démarrer\programmes\informant utils\piweek.lnk"
Note that the "Informant Utils" folder contains a shortcut for each view, you can choose whichever you want, their name are self explanatory.
I've configured the x button to close all applications but PI (to have it always active and then have a faster access) :
- start PI
- go to settings>Task manager> tab "current" (or whatever the first tab name is in your language)
- tap and hold on the PI task, then select "add to exclusive"
That way, when I click on the left soft key (now labeled "Agenda") I switch to PI in week view. I can then switch from PI by using the Home button or the x button, PI will stay active and the next switch will be very fast.
Nor working for me...
I should work. You must have made a mistake somwhere. Did you do a soft reset? Did you doublecheck the path to be sure you wrote it correctly?
You can also try the program HD Tweak wich allow you to set that in section 14.4 & 14.5.
My answer to HTCZar was irrelevant, because Claude already anwered.
As I said in the first post, I tried to use HD Tweaks, however the optios presented don´t include the PI calendar\agenda, how do I put them there?

Could you possibly check the link properties for this and month view? Just for anyone that might have got rid of all those extra links cluttering up his 'All programs list'...
What I'd like to have set up, the left soft key goes to Pocket Informant (maybe the screen where you choose what view you want) and when I tap an appointment in TF3D it loads the agenda view, using SSMaPa. (Can you get me a link for this?)
Here is the link as read in the properties of the shortcut :
For PIWeek.lnk :
"\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe" 4?\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe,-113
For PIMonth :
"\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe" 4?\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe,-114
To get rid af tho extras link in 'All program list', it would have been better to move the shortcut in another folder, so you could still use them if needed...
I haven't used SSMaPa yet (but I planned to) therefore I can't help you on this matter. Sorry.
Yeah, I should have just moved them... silly me. Thanks for your help. Could you possibly give the link to the agenda view too? Thanks.
Is there a link to 'view' view?
I´ll Try that Again then.
Is it possoble to change the hardware keys function?

1. You need to install registry editor. I use Resco Registry Editor, but there are some other.
2. Open the registry and follow the tree up to the parameter HomeLSKPath. Taping on the parameter should provide a field where to keyin the path string.
3. Quit the registry editor
4. Restart TF3D or do a Soft Reset.
I´ve done that, and i´m also using Resco editor.
The path strings begins with Windows\....PIWeek.lnk right? it takes no " "?

Changing "Programs" key in home screen to something else??

How can I change the "Programs" key at the bottom right in the home screen to "Calendar" so it will open my default calendar?
Install HD Tweak mate,
Options 14.4 and 14.5 allow you to configure these options to whatever you like
Thank you! I knew I had seen it somewhere.
But now one more question. I use Agenda One as my calendar. Can I set it up so that it opens Agenda One instead of WM Calendar?
EDIT: Ah - I figured it out.
In the registry, go to: HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
Change HomeRSKPath (or HomeLSKPath - depending on whether it is the Left or Right softkey) to the path where the Agenda One.exe file is located. In my case it is \Programme\Agenda One\Agenda One.exe
Save the changes and now the Calendar link in the Home Screen opens Agenda One.
In that registry location, you can also change the text to whatever you want it to say. Because HD Tweak put the labels in English, I changed them to German. Just change HomeLSKText or HomeRSKText.
I suppose this works for any program that you want to use as your default calendar.

[REF] Rotating apps using registry and finding classes

Hi All,
I have written this little tutorial by piecing togethor bits of info from other forums and threads. Some of you will probably know this already but this is for those who are struggling:
To get the g sensor rotating any application that doesnt do so already you will need to edit the registry on your device.
Using your preferred registry editor navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Here you must create a new string value. The name of your string is whatever you want it to be. The value of your string would be the path to the exe of the program you wish to rotate.
Once this is done you must then navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Here you must again create a new string value.
The name again is whatever you want it to be... the value would be the class name of the application you are attempting to rotate.
For example.... to get excel rotating with the G sensor:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Create new string value... i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
windows\pxl.exe
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Create new string value... again i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
BOOKWIN
Create second new string value... i named it Excel Mobile2. Value is:
PXLMainWnd
Exit your registry editor and soft reset the device. Job done. Excel will now rotate within the open file browser (PXLMainWnd) and also within any open workbook (BOOKWIN)
For any particular app you should be able to figure out what the full path is to your exe but to get class names use dotfreds task manager:
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Once the task manager is installed.... start your app... then start the task manger... go to applications tab and long press on your app which will be listed if it is still running... select details. Go to the windows tab... this screen will list all of the classes currently accessed by your app. Ususally the ones to add into the whitelist will be the ones that are preceded by the app name but not always.
To get you guys started here are the settings for word:
windows\pword.exe
and you need to add two classes to the white list:
WordPad
Pocket Word
Remember that class names are case sensitive.

thank you, and take your time =) btw, I just wanna be clear that I didn't mean the messaging tab on the home/sense screen, I meant the default win6.5 screen.
Thanks for this post, I am trying to find the details for a new app called DynaInk. I've followed your instructions and I am about to see if it worked?
*** Drum Roll ***
It worked, I used #NETCF_AGL_BASE_
Thank You
I applied this trick for Notepad which is a simple text editor that doesn't even require installation:
http://www.shamasis.net/projects/notepad-mobile/
After installing Dotfred's Task manager it showed me several string values for Notepad.exe and one of them was same as Nighthawk's DynaInk: #NETCF_AGL_BASE_ so I added it for my Notepad.exe.
Now it rotates with G-sensor
Thank you, Audio Oblivion for this guide!
p.s. What kind of damage to the device could possibly be done by adding those strings with those values? One could delete them if there's no result ?!?
Great post, works very well except for 1 program.
Perhaps you can help me out with the class name of TomeRaider3.
Program is TomeRaider3AU.exe, but for the Whitelist entry I always get different ClassNames when I start it as just like: "Afx:83ab6eaa:0, next time I get Afx:d54d7832:0, and so on.
Can anyone please help me out with this ?
many thanx in advance
Edit: Found the solution. I have added a ModuleName Wikipedia with Value "\Programme\TomeRaider3\Wikipedia.tr3 and a Whitelist entry for Wikipedia called "Dialog", for the Whitelist entry of TomeRaider I also used "Dialog", now it works very well.

I launched the default wnimo messaging screen and saw a process called tmail.exe appear.
search for tmail.exe on you device and use its full path as the module name. its probably windows\tmail.exe
for class entry in whitelist try: Dialog
If thats not it then start messaging, lauch dotfreds task manager, long key press on tmail.exe... click on windows and try every class you see!
I have now found that gyrator works quite well if you want EVERY screen on your device to rotate with the acceleromter... however... even though it is set to rotate everything... not all windows work. I still had to add in certain aspects of SPB shell to the whitelist for instance. Also... HTC Sense homescreen doesnt like being rotated.

You wont damage your device if you follow my instructions carefully. The values you are changing are safe to add, delete and edit at any time (although dont touch what is already in the registry before you started adding to it). The discalimer is there in case someone messes up their registry by doing something incorrectly!
What about the programs that have the same Class name eg. "Dialog".
As i noticed it's enough to add process name to ModuleName or Class Name to WhiteList. No need to put both.
Better to use ModuleName if you have several applications that both have eg "Dialog" but one of them you do not want to rotate.
Eg. Nimbuzz - Dialog, HTC phone app - also Dialog. I do not want to rotate Phone So for me works only the ModuleName for the Nimbuzz.
For other apss I only include data to whitelist In fact there is two lists - by process name and by Window class...
Is there a similar way to enable the "Pinch to Zoom" feature for programs by just adding the programm to some registry entries?

Not working
Hi all,
I have tried to apply this procedure but my applications still do not rotate.
I have tried both modifying the registry by hand, and using BsB Tweaks to rotate Excel but with no success. Any suggestions to share?
EDIT: I have tried disabling and re-enabling the Rotate feature (AutoRotation -> 0 -> 1), resetting the phone after each change, and now NO APPLICATION will rotate: not even HTC messaging nor the Sense Pictures tab.
HELP!!!!
EDIT 2: Solved! I've just found out by pure chance that rotating works only counterclockwise, while I assumed it should work both ways!
