OzVGA, Wisbar Advance, VJ big phone.
So now I have all this extra screen-estate to fill on the today screen.
Any suggestions on some nifty/useful apps that can run on the today screen?
I wouldn't mind a better contact list program then the horrible WM5 crippled do-one-contact-at-a-time.

Will ContactBreeze, PocketBreeze, etc. work with VGA? I use these with my Wizard and find them really useful...
Yes, and a heck of a lot prettier than qvga, too!

Pocketbreeze is great. Thanks.
I've tried OzVGA and that TrueVGA thingy but with the latter I wasn't able to get the signal indicator, start menu etc to show.
Which is best? Can someone post a screenie showing everything working?
Cheers
Ant
I'd be lost without Pocketbreeze these days...

Hey, are you using VJBigPhone for WM6 [d'oh, Athena is WM5 right?]
Post some screenshots!
You get more then ample space for space eaters, so use PHM tools to have a slideshow on your phone, Media player control plugin, big PhoneAlarm theme etc.
I do quite like SPB Shell as well.

Apparently you don't know the answer so it's stupid to just assume it isn't functional. Actually WA2 and WAD are very fast and responsive and the amount of RAM it uses is controlled by the amount of objects you use.
The setup of hellomoto_25 will probably take up about 6 MB's of RAM.
I have a similar setup on my Axim x51v (VGA device, so all images/GUI elements are 4 times bigger) and it takes 7MB's of RAM, using PB/CB/PRSS, WA2 and WAD.
Thanks for the compliments ya'll. I'd like to take all the credit but the icons and docks come from some great people over at lakeridgesoftware.com in the forums.
I run with 18mb after a soft reset and after a few hours of use I'm down to about 13mb. I SR about once a day just to keep things fresh.
As far as the skin goes, right now WAD (wisbar advance desktop) skins are rather costomized and in order for the skin to work you either need to store the images and .exe's to the same place on your device/storage card as I do and/or re-write the skin file in notepad.
Your best bet is to do what I did and take advantage of the icons and docks that others have provided and make your own skin.
I wouldn't run my ppc w/out WAD and WA2 (wisbar advance 2).
I just can't stand the default today screen.
And until Apple makes a handheld device with a built in phone, this is the best I can do.
Here is my dialpad and welcome screen after a soft reset.
Those look fantastic.... I have registered version of both WBar and WAD... but couldn't get them to look like all the great ones out there, and frankly it slowed my device way way down... not saying it was the app. As the app is fantastic.... but I must just not have as much free memory as those who have made the killer screen designs....
I am very jealous in a way, as I wish my device looked like that.... but it runs real smooth as it is now... so.... :?

Download Wisbar Advanced version 2.6.0.2 on WA2's forum. It runs really, really smooth and fast in combination with WAD on my HTC Magician.
a new one...

thank you!

Is there something ou there that does this?
I'm a proud owner of a MPX200 with WM5 and also a Qtek S200.
On the MPX200 I had tested an application that scrolled on the display all the appointments and tasks. Is there something like this that works on the Qtek or any other PDA for that...
If it's any good, i'm posting the link for the Smartphone original program:

Hi, I've tested both solutions, but what I was hoping was a Horizontal Scroller instead of the scrolling buttons on the right.
I'll keep on looking further, thanks again
The only scrolling today screen feature I've seen is with PocketMax phonealarm, they have a scrolling feature that will show your carrier, the date, time data usage etc.
Hi!
When I upgraded to the new HTC Artemis I let my wife inherit my Magician, but she is not that in to PPC, so the question is:
Is there a skin suit (WisBar Adv Desktop or something) available that could make the phone more like a "normal" cell phone? She does not realy need all the fancy suff, but she uses tomtom, media player, SMS, MMS, Phone, Contacts, Calendar, IE, phonealarm profiles and phonealarm MMS, SMS, missed call notifications.
Preferably all functions should be available from today screen as large icons.
PK
Seach for the Orange today plugin. Make it looks very much like a normal phone (that's why I don't use it )

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276425
I've tested it on my WM5, not sure if (it should) work on WM2003

This is just what I'm looking for, sadly it does not run on PPC2003SE :-(
I guess the same thing could be made as a WisBar theme, maybe it already is, but just hard to find ;-)

You might just want to look around for any old thread/forum/post that has this Orange plugin. As Orange does have a Magician release that has that today plug-in (eg they DO have a plugin for 2003). Good luck.

Hi!
Yes I know, but I'm looking for a skin to the WisBar adv desktop software pack.
PK
I'm not sure if this helps, but if you were to use cLaunch to set up the Today screen .. 'nicely', you may able to make it looks simplier. Take a look at the iPhone cLaunch skin here. Note: cLaunch maybe a bit troublesome to setup.

Hi guys,
What's the best multi page today plugin with the ability to insert today plugins inside pages?
I'd like if i could have first top half of the screen with htc home plugin and second bottom half with more than one tab with inside different today plugins.
Sorry for my english, hope clear enough...
TY

there is wisbar advance desktop (WAD for short) which can do some wondrous things and it is completely customizable and skinable:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products.php?prod=WisBar+Advance+Desktop
takes a bit to get used to, but you basically lets you create today screens and add what you want to them, including other today plugins and counters, text , images etc...sorry, not the best description. Have a look at the forum on the site to see what people are using it for.
Hope it helps
I like the good ol' HTC Home. Nice and simple.
I'm really digging on the the tried and true cLaunch lately. As I'm limited to a 240x240 screen, there are only a few viable options for the limited real estate and cLaunch is working nicely as an app launcher. In conjunction with Quickmenu, I manage my device and access my apps with minimal keying.

X2 for cLaunch. Simple, clean, multiple pages, custom icons (.bmp, exe, or dll) you can even change the size of the icons you want to make it more finger friendly. I set mine to 32 pixels, and took off all the borders and tabs. You can use lnk shortcuts.
I think OP 's original request was for something that is tabbed AS WELL as be able to include other today plugins as tab.
can cLaunch or ultimate do that?
I know SPB Pocket Plus can but there are some plugins it can't incorporate which I wish it could like the WM6 calendar and task plugins.
is there an english version of ultimatelaunch

This is a best plugin so far and uses a minimal amonut of ram considering how much works it does.
Anybody know how to put meter in this plugin like battery, signal, memory etc. And show running programs in a tab.
You can create your own tabbed today plugin (for FREE) by using:
1. rlToday
2. MortScripts

Greetings,
I am always on the lookout for the latest thing. I am currently using an XV6800 with SPB Mobile Shell and some other great programs such as S2p, Imageviewe 0.9, S2U2, and many others. I have been searching the forums for quite a while now and I was wondering if you guys can help me theme my phone with all Vista Themes. I am looking for black vista themes for:
SPB Mobile Shell
WM6.1
S2P
S2U2
ImageViewer 0.9
Thumbcal 0.5
iContact Bert Edition
EQO Mobile
Nevo Mobile Remote
TCPMP
Youtube Player
Windows Media Player
Minimal Dialer Colored
I am also looking for a program to make using the Messaging feature more finger friendly also Vista themed.
Also I wondering if you can help me with a MortiScript I am working on. i am trying to use past scripts I have found in this section that switched the calender and contacts programs to build a seperate on so that when you click the Speaker Icon in SPB Mobile Shell to open S2U2 Volume Control. I haven't had any luck. If can help me build up my phone that would be awesome. Thanks in advance.
