Calendar Month View Problem - P3600 General

Hello everyone...
I am currently using WM6 with AX3L's Version Rom 2.8.0.1 and recently upgraded to Windows Outlook 2007.
Everything seemed to work fine until I started testing other Roms (ie 2.8.0.2, Indigo Lite, etc.) I have since switched back to 2.8.01 since it was the only ROM which I did not have this issue. In fact, I am not even sure if this is a ROM issue or the fact that I upgraded to Outlook 2007.
However, now when I look at my Calendar on month view, it does not show any events, ie. "small square" and "half sqaures" boxes, even though I know the events are there since daily and weekly views are fine. I work different days each week, and the month view is what I use most often in order to get a birds eye view of when I am off.
In the past I had a similar issue, and I thought it was because I had too many scheduled appointments, but that does not seem to be the problem.
If anyone can offer any assistanace, it would be greatly appreciated, and thanks for the all the ROM chefs out there for making my Trinity P3600 and awesome phone.
Trinity - P3600 (AX3L's ROM 2.0.8.1 WWE Radio 1.46.00.11)
Thank you in advance for any advice.
Resolved: UI Tweaker caused incompatibility with color scheme.

You know I am having a similar problem, except my Tilt shows events, just not all day events like Birthdays. I just recently upgraded to Outlook 2007 as well. I read in another post that if you set the event as busy it will show up, I tried it and it worked! Hope this helps! Credit goes to: hongsit

alternative calendar software?

is there any software which can totally replace the windows mobile 6 calendar / notes system?
as the calendar/notes etc installed on my phone currently never save when trying to add a new one
TIA
why doesn't the informations save? most programs seem to still use the pim information and re-organize it...todayagenda is a good one, imo.

I second today agenda. But it will not resolve your issue. Neither will other software.
1. What Rom and device do you use?
(i know it's the wizard forum but these days you never know)
2. Have you performed a clear storage?
3. Have you tried a clear storage and then exiting when the customisation starts?
4. .............................
i changed to a different rom and the calendar now works ok

Have you notified the Chef of the ROM build about the calendar issue?
SPB Diary is another brilliant tool for diary, notes, tasks etc...
yeah i tried spb diary but it still wouldnt save any new items
ive posted the problem in the chefs thread but no one replied and also the thread didnt have anyone else mention it so i assumed it was a issue relating to my device or flash but i find the rom i have now works flawlessly so all good
That's why myself i'm sticking with NBD Rom from Zoki.
He reads the thread and regularly updates.
Enjoy you new ROM, but it's still weird that it didnt interact with the calendar.

calendar reminders not working

Fix for 8125 and TILT, may also work on HERMES
This is one of the most frustrating things about Windows Mobile. I had the same problem with my 8125, and it just started on my 2 mo. old Tilt. Even though you have a Hermes, this solution may work because it is a WINDOWS MOBILE problem.
I've done major amounts of research on this subject and many people will tell you you need Memmaid (have it), or SKTools to fix this. Neither worked for me on either phone (except Memmaid is great, you should get it). There are also many other tweaker tricks as well, none of which worked for me. Some even suggest a HARD RESET. Don't do it, it isn't needed.
Here's what worked for me.
On the 8125: pull the battery out while powered on. Put the battery back in, and reset the clock. (the battery trick didn't work on the TILT)
On the Tilt: change the clock to visiting time, and accept changes. Change the clock back to home time and accept changes.
After looking at these solutions I think the clock fix would have done the same thing on my 8125.
I can't take credit for either discovery, however, I can't remember where I read them.
I hope this works for you and the others that experience this most frustrating issue.
Calendar reminders not working on HTC Tytn II (Tilt) + WM6.1
Hi,
I had recently updated my HTC Tytn II (Kaiser/Tilt) from Windows Mobile 6 to Windows Mobile 6.1.
It took me a little while to notice that my calendar reminders were not working. My "Task" reminders were working fine.
I did the suggested fix - which was to change the timezone to "Visiting" and back to "Home" - and now I have my calendar reminders working again. Thanks for the suggestion hksuper!
Prembo.
It works on Polaris too. Thanks you guys so much
Thanks
Thanks hksuper .... I just chaged the clock from home to visiting and then back to home and it worked ,,,, Thanks for sharing this info.
Hi,
I'm glad others are finding this tidbit of info useful.
What bothers me is that the solution is only temporary. It seems like it only lasts for a day and then you have to do the time change trick, which you forget to do. I would set a reminder to remind me to change the time zone, but it wouldn't go off to remind me.
I guess my solution is only a half a solution until someone figures out how to make reminders work permanently on Windows Mobile.
IN other news....I have an iPod Touch, sync'd to my Exchange Server, and it NEVER FAILS TO DING WHEN I HAVE A REMINDER SET. Unfortunately, the reminders don't have as many nice options (like snooze, which I find invaluable). So Apple at least gets points for making it work right. Got that MS?
Cheers!
As an interim solution for you hksuper, why don't you set the reminders on your iPod Touch to tell you when you need to reset the clock....
Seriously though I hope we can come up with a solution to an annoying problem... Come on MS, apples ahead of the game, time for you to get there too....
That is a really good thing to know.
Today I experienced the same problem on my Touch Pro 2, with Windows Mobile 6.5. After doing the clock trick, it is working again.
Hope I don't have to do this daily or else I just throw out this f*cking expensive device
I had this issue in Win 5 when I got my m3100.
I have never had the problem in 6.0 pro though and I use the calendar everyday.
Weird
Solution for calendar reminder problem.
Google "The poorhouse pmClean cab." Download the pmClean cab, perform a clean, and do a soft reset. I'm currently on the NRG Phoenix 2 6.5 ROM on my HTC Fuze and it worked remarkably well.

a BIG Thank you, after 4 years, the same fault is still happening.
my device is HTC Touch HD.
Works on XPERIA X1. Thanks.
The fix also works on my HTC HD2 T9193.
I had this problem a long time ago on win mo 5.0. I'm surprised to see the same problem is still with us.

Getting the calender to show more then just today's appointments?

Any one know how? Old HTC Touch used to show the next three - this one only shows today's - am I missing some setting?
Thanks folks!
Hello!
Nobody knows?
Maybe it´s only the German Rom ... ?
I have the same problem ...
There has been a long discussion over at pocketpc.ch about this issue. My german version also only shows appointments up to the next day. Maybe there will be a fix in future firmware updates.

Minimize the clock by moving your finger upwards on the screen.
Now it should show 5 meetings (only the next day though)
Still, it bugs me that it can't show more with a large clock, since it's a lot of empty space there.
As said before, probably a bug.

How cool is that, didn't know you could minimise the clock
My UK model is the same! Another bug I found is when the days event has passed, it still shows as today! For example, a birthday will be a day old, and yet still claim to be today. I have to exit TF3D and restart to update. Anyone else suffer from this?!

Yes, I've seen the same problem. It did it with no other software installed, so evidently a TF3D bug.
If we all take the time to report bugs to HTC then hopefully they'll fix them!
Not that I've had a response back to my reports!
Thanks all for the thoughts. Like i said it works fine on the Touch and I cant believe its that complicated to show the next three appointments whenever they may be......hopefully someone will create a tweak for it.
This problem actually persists even if I turn off TouchFlo, i.e. the original windows 6.1 does also just show today/tomorrow.
Upon entering the Calendar - it actually shows the same. If I recall right, previous versions had a list of coming appointments.
Perhaps the problem is not TouchFlo-related after all?
Yup you're right, previously you could see three upcoming appointments, your next appointments no matter how far in the future they are
Same sentiments here, would be great if the Today screen can show upcoming appointments, regardless of how far future the dates be, not just for today and tomorrow only. My o2zinc has this useful feature.
Hope HTC can do a mini program like the o2 has it in o2plus.
disregard.
That would be useful, be able to see today and future appointments. If we could see 3/4 that would be superb! It would give us a head start to buy a birthday gift.
this is not ideal but can be done using the following.
install second today http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907
this way you can run the standard windows mobile screen as well as touchflow. but that too will only display 1 appointment, so install calendar plus http://www.mohairsofa.com/Default.aspx/document/6
this is a simple plugin which adds the feaures your looking for, display multiple days of appointments on the today screen.
as for the inability of touchflow, to refresh itself, so that yesterday's apointment does not remain as today. galarm has the ability to fix this bug, by waking up the device everyday at 12a.m. to refresh. as it's a great alarm program http://freewareppc.com/clock/galarm.shtml
although i think that if u try one of the new ROMs all these issues should have been solved.
good luck

MDA won't sync

Can anyone help me with this? thanks in advance

I found this buried somewhere in either the Microsoft Active Sync help, one of the MS forums, and maybe here, too. But it was pretty obscure.
Caveat: I have NO CLUE as to WHY this should work, but it did.
Go to SETTINGS -> SYSTEM -> USB to PC.
Whatever the setting is, change it. It worked for me, despite the fact that it was the setting that I had to change to get Active Sync to work in the first place. I have no clue as to why the setting that would not let Active Sync work before now made it work now.
Just to really mess me up, as I check it now after having flashed S.V.I.'s Angel v.4, the USB to PC setting is changed back, but Active Sync has been working perfectly ... well, as perfectly as it ever did.
Sure hope this helps.
no. if i change it, it doesn't read it at all
thanks for trying though. i had some hope lol
Hmm. Try using DotFred's task manager to clear your duplicate notifications. I'm pretty sure it's already part of your ROM. Also clear your temp files out with ClearTemp. Cooks tend to forget this one, but it's a damn useful little program.
Chances are the first step will cure your problem. Shut the phone off completely in between steps, too.

Can too many Contacts slow down HTC Sense?

I can't find any information on any threads regarding this, but I have tried several different ROMs, and everything is perfectly speedy until I synch up my Contacts list via Exchange ActiveSync. I've tried deselecting JUST my contact synchronization and everything seems to load just fine after that. Does anyone else know of any recommended limits for Contact lists? (I have a little over 300 contacts...)
I have more than 300 contacts, and no slow down after sync...
Loading contact list take less than one sec...
457 contacts here, no issues whatsoever, takes a while to sync to exchange 2010 though if only on GPRS
Have you tried the latest update. It is a radio rom (2.06.51.07) but the description says it has fixes for contacts. Here: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=839
I have 500+ contacts.
No issues.
But, the peoples tab in manila slows sense a bit.
I have 2200+ contacts and 2500+ Calendar items but sensed no slow-down on my HD2.

Same here: I can open a "Favorite" contact quickly but it takes forever to go back to the screen with all of the "Favorites" and with forever I mean like 7/10 secs.

From my last restore .... I got about 3,334 contacts in my phone.
Didn't experience any slow down.
you guys are scary manzzz..2k contacts??? salute guys....i only have 250
I have only 150 contacts, but compared to other solutions like Resco Phone Contact or standard wm application HTC Contacts seems to be slow in general.
For sure, thousands of contacts may slow down every software, but this piece og software is never really smooth. Scrolling is a little bit choppy, switching between the different views always takes a while.
I don't think we ca change that behavior.

I have the same issues - happy to hear that I am not alone.
I am syncing my contacts with Lotus Traveler.
On the stock german rom 1.48 I did not had this issue
I did not had on Anja_31 rom from 1.1.2010 (but with this rom I had battery problems)
I had it with Mitris 1.1
Dutys v1, V3a
Now I am on Anja_31 from 15.1.2010 and the effect is the same again.
Mayb some of the tweaks are causing this dealy, that Sense is "looking" for something.
Mayv also some with the file system.
But the problem is I have absolutly no clue about rom cooking and the potential tweaks which could interfear in this area.

Thanks everyone. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy. It looks like my problems are actually related to my storage card and Manila version... Trying a new ROM now..
Unfortunatly not in my case.
Contacts are on internal storage and I have now Duty´s WWE V1.1 rom with Manila 1921, but with some "new Versions from 2.02"
To me int looks like that htc-contact is building up during each opening of a contact a index or cache or what so ever and is not storing this information for the future.
Or it has to do with some tweaks of the roms.
My contact list is not so large (maybe 120-150 contacts) but each contact is filled with all the adress details and not just a phone number, I am using also using "Groups".
Please report if you have a good result with a new rom.
Best regards,
dingolino

I have reverted back to the default 1.48 ROM. It is the only one that I have found to be stable and quick.

Hi
Same here.. I have test like 5 diferents custom rom.. I have only 400 contacts... slowwwwww. But with the stock rom is fast!
Any more news??
thanks
Damn you guys are popular!! over 4/5 hundred of contacts? yikes i only have abt 100 i think hahaha
Same problem here, I have my Leo from 2 weeks, without any kind of updates (everything is stock so far), I have about 200 contacts (about 50 of them with image thumbnail 256x256px) and it is sooooooooooooo sloooooooooooow ...
... seems I have to try some updates you mentioned already
HTC Sense slow in loading or boot up
I have a few thousands of appointments, contacts, and multiple email accounts set up.
I was very frustrated about the very slow bootup (more than 5 minutes at most time) before everything is loaded and Sense works normally after that.
After much troubleshooting, I've confirmed that the Email accounts on the SD card is the cause. After deleting all emails in my Yahoo! and 2 Gmail accounts, the startup time reduced to less than 1 minute most of the time. I guess that Sense somewhat tries to load the emails!! Or possibly the SD card is slow (only rated 2x speed).
Hope this helps others who are frustrated over the same issue.
