Iphone theme for WM6 Calendar - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi Folks,
I was searching (both here and the net) for an iphone skin that would work with the WM6 calendar. The closets one I could find (as far a just skinning goes) is OtO which is a great apps, but currently does not allow users to send meeting request using MS exchange.
Im not a developer so I have no idea if this is possible so hence this post, is this already been done? If not, would it be possible to do and if so, would anyone be up to the challenge?

Yes me too i am also very interested in thisone. Let's hope the guys from the new PointUI can arrange something. If you see what they already have done, I'm sure they must be able to do something for this in the future. Let's hope & pray!

Uhm...I mention OtO in my op...
"The closets one I could find (as far a just skinning goes) is OtO which is a great apps, but currently does not allow users to send meeting request using MS exchange."
I was looking for (if it exists) a skin (or separate apps) which mimicks the iphone calendar for WM6. It would be cool if the current OtO could be customized to select skin types (just like Tene's contact apps with Torx iphone skin). I would still need the ability to add attendees within my contacts or from my company exchange using activesync - but the skin would be a great start.

anyone has a cab file for it

Hi,
I am also very interested in an Iphone calendar lookalike for WM6.
I am fed up trying to use my ppc calendar without the styletus and with my big fingers...
The iphone calendar seems very user friendly.
I tried OTO but it is just made to insert a appointment (private, public not available), not to view the calendar etc...
Anyone is working on it ?
Thks,
Pebrok

Anybody have a .cab for OTO v5.0b...

On the web page http://www.onetouchinnovation.com/get-oto
Binary version of Oto

For at least a year I was searching around for some user-friendly and thumb-friendly calendar app, I got so frustrated and gave up. I was used to my old Nokia 6610i calendar before I had a PPC phone.
Finally, I found Agenda One which is brilliant!
Definitely give it a try. IMO it's actually better than the iPhone app. After watching that youtube video I couldn't believe how un-amazingly-intuitive it was to enter an appointment. Agenda One's much quicker.
Edit: oh, I should add, Agenda One is fully compatible with your PIM data - contacts, calendar appointments, tasks. It does the same job as the default WM ones. I sync the phone with outlook and it's great. I'm going to get an exchange service too and I'm sure it'll work with that.

THX... but same as photo as Iphone...
Sure i prefer Agenda One...

Agenda One sure is a nice calendar but imho still not comparable to iphone calendar for easy input of appointment with just fingers

Agree
Would love to see someone developing something like iPhone calendar (imho, people are turning their HTCs into iPhones with all these mods and themes. Why not a cool calendar? )
I hate the HTC calendar :s for real!

Do you mean the stock WM calendar?
Either way i agree, a new calendar for finger abiity is a defo need in my opinion! Just wish i could dev one lol!
MM

yeah. WM, sorry
but it really sucks! Only now I'm starting to understand it

Well, I'm just trying to help out but if you want to give it a try, Agenda One recently updated to enlarge the text size of editing/adding appointments, tasks etc.
They also added a few other things to make all editing finger-friendly (like input of numbers, there's a nice large dialpad now).
I found it ok anyway, I guess I've trained my fingers to do it (because I will NOT use the stylus for anything but resetting my hermes when it's crashed and poking people I don't like...)
However, it does look a little ugly with with the bigger edit text so you're right, something that is big enough for all thumbs which ALSO looks nice is needed.

Anyone know a Today Plug in that can do this?

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_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"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
V
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)
Second: Does anyone have the other zips that were placed on the NotesToday website? (which is offline now , anyone know why?)
Cached version of the page with the zips I mean:

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.

[03/09/2008] PocketCM Calendar 0.2 - Finger friendly calendar application

I just release the second shot of PocketCM Calendar.
It doesn't do that much yet, but should allow you to browse through your calendar using your finger, add, edit and delete event.
Lot of things are still to come, and lot of things will change, but as always, I choose to share with you the early version of this application.
Added the opportunity to delete events (stay pressed on an event a menu will appear
Added GSync tool, synchronize Windows Mobile Calendar with Google Calendar (two way, do not support recurence) - this is a separate exe
Bug fixes: people crashing at start should now be able to use it
Synchronize with Google Calendar
Just run GSync.exe
Provide user/pass
Click "start" (or refresh)
The list of calendar should appear, select those you want to synchronize
Hit start, that should be it
If you want to add an event to google calendar, simply create one (using PocketCM Calendar or any other app) and give it the right category
{
"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"
}
Feature to come:
- More calendar view
- Remove event
- Recurring event support
- Synchronize with Google Calendar
- Better performance
- ...
As this application is build on top of PocketCM Framework, it's fully customizable, however, be patient, the internal will change a lot, so I'm not providing any infomration yet.
as always to get it: www.pocketcm.com
Very nice - your pocket cm is a must have for me, and looks like the calendar will be another
Thank you
Finally some-one doing a calender !!! Hallelujah!
Great!! Along with the google cal sync, could you consider supporting a generic ical import? I have problems trusting google with ALL of my data so I keep my calendar on my own server.

It seems you have an appointment that is bugged or has something special, how many appointment do you have in your calendar? is there something special about them?
Will this application run on WM5. I have a T-mobile MDA with original rom. I have the PocketCM keyboard and contact.

No appointment today, the two next are for monday...
I've just tried your Calendar with the HTC Stock ROM : same issue...
?
You da man!!!!
Tene... You never fail to impress me. I only became a WM user 3 weeks ago and you have already acheived godly status!
I'd be happy to donate when this project matures.
Tene, do you read my mind? I'm worried about it.
How do you do to come up always with the program I feel is missing in my Touch?
I use OtO so far as my calendar, but I'm afraid the project is stopped.
I do declare myself your number 1 fan
And, once again, I will donate to support this new "must have"
Keep going!

Is there any possibility that you send me your pim.vol (I guess you've a clean one after installing the HTC Stock ROM) ? I'd like to be able to reproduce, but for me it always worked.
Regarding mind reading, let's say I'm also a user
Just made a small donation, which I hope will give my idea a bit more consideration.
Can you please make a floating box, much like you have one the PCMKeyboard, which list the days appointments a you slide your finger over the day.
Secondly, when you tap on the day in the month view, can the app default to adding or editing the appointment.
I dont know if you ever used PalmOS, but their calender had the great feature of letting you add simple appointments directly to the day view.
I feel this is a much more intuitive and useful way to add appointments, and then to click on an edit button to add categories, alarms etc.
Surur
Same problem as MonteCristoffOn
Hi tene,
Same for me here on an ASUS P535 WM6pro.
Program starts but shut down afther 2 sec. I could see the day view for one sec...
I am sure you are hearing this stuff everywhere but could you consider a scroll wheel for appointment adds?

[Come on!] Develope a photodial today plugin! Please!

Hi there.
I ahve tried many different soulutions to get a todayplugin working on UL or else that can:
- use photos from Outlook contacts
- speeddial with single tap
- choose sms, call, email
- easy apllying contacts
I only found:
- makecall.exe = difficult to customize and need of own made icons
- vjphone = also difficult to customize
- dialtab.cab = floating arround - seems to be part of SPB Mobile shell - very easy! great! BUT not freeware. shows "trial expired"
So how difficult can it be for some of you guys out here to create a plugin that works 100% ???
Hope someone will join this project. I WILL try everything. But i´m not a programmer!
THANKS for helping!

New App Should Be Made
While I like and use the Face Contacts photo dial, I think thats the name, I too think a new app should be created. When the Diamond came out, it opened up a whole new level to today plugs for us WM users. The functionality of the photo dialer plug on that device is leaps ahead of other software. Its functional, and by god its beautiful.
I cant wait to see these plugs start getting ported over for our devices. Until then , I hope one of you geni's on here make something to hold us over. Actually, knowing how most of you all operate, you'll make something that puts the Diamonds Contact Plug to shame!!!
this is what you need!

just found out the one i linked to was originally by TofClock, known as TofClock Today Plugin, i think he passed on reading some posts so RIP, peace.
The "testtoday" would be the best one, but you may know that there were complaints from Palm about this being posted!! At least that's if my memory serves me correct.

Hope someone will join this project. I WILL try everything. But i´m not a programmer!
THANKS for helping!

I was also searching for this kind of software for a long time. I would say, I tried everythig.
Till now the best solution was htc home and the cube, they act just how i would suppose and like it.
I would like to add something to this request: make it flexible, so you can specify something like x rows and y columns on your screen, I don't like those one-line plugins.
For the meanwhile I would really really love to see a tool to convert contact-pictures to icos.
Hey,
I second this request!
Will pay a good donation for a good quality plug-in.
Requirements:
1. Adjustable contact grid eg. 3x3, 4x4, 5x5
2. Photos pulled from outlook database.
3. Skinable.
4. Low memory footprint.
Pleeeeeeze!
Or This?
I saw this one posted earlier today.

It's not freeware, but $6.95 isn't bad.

[PRJ][01.01.2009] iDiamond Project v.0.2b [PUBLIC BETA IS OVER]

Hello boys and girls!
Here's my little Chrismas present for you: iDiamond Project public beta
As for now, it's nothing but a fancy application laucher, but it will be developed into complex UI over time. I'm too lazy to write more, so look for yourself.
And yeah, a feedback (or even an usability review) will be appreciated.
Special thanks to:
mun_rus: for your help in manila R&D (reverse-engineering and development)
bepe: for your useful hashing utilities
nestore5: for your help with decompilation
chainfire & guys: for QTC converter
Thank you all guys! You all helped greatly to make it happen!
System requirements:
TouchFLO 3D enabled VGA device
The official beta testing period of v.0.2 is over, coz all valuable information is collected and we got into flood&flame stage.
You're supposed to stop using the beta and wait for next releases (in Feb-Mar). The beta will forcefully expire after Jan, 15th.
If you haven't got a chance to try, here's the video:

Attention!
If you're going to distribute this to other forums, please do not remove credits.txt from the package, so users can always check back for newer versions in this thread.
Interface modders, if you're going to change some graphics, please leave loading screen logo untouched. This is my personal request
Regarding HTC Touch HD version:
I can not develop HD apps without actual device, and i don't think i will get any, coz it's not even sold here. But as soon a i get one (by some miraculous means), you can count on HD releases along with Diamond releases. You heard me
Donations:
I don't need money for this project, coz i write it for my own pleasure, and Paypal is not available in my region anyway. I wrote it just above, but i will state it more clearly: what i really need are Touch HD (for HD version) and iPhone itself (to look how things are done there), so, if you want, you can look in the direction of fundraising via someone trustworthy in the community, but that's just an idea...
Enjoy!
Known issues:
- Manila hangs or restarts sometimes during adding a shortcut
- Clock icon does nothing - it's just showing time (for now)
Impossible features (do not request them please):
- Locking the entire interface
- Integrating TF3D tabs into iDiamond UI
- Integrating iDiamond UI into TF3D
- QVGA version
Upcoming features:
- Setting wallpaper
- Built-in applications: picture viewer, music player (with coverFLO), messaging, etc.
- Active icons for applications: showing number of missed calls, new messages, etc.
Tips & tricks:
- Adding shortcuts to special places/actions, like Settings and New SMS (workaround): I haven't tried that personally, but i'm sure it's possible to create a special .lnk (with special parameters) for such actions (just goggle it) and add em like regular application.
"New SMS" shortcut attached. Just put it into your Programs folder
SMS Inbox: 00#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"
More shortcuts here: http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/windo...51874-windows_mobile_shortcuts_erstellen.html

Edit: So wait. This means my TF3D won't run Awe. I was hoping to secondtoday this....any way I can get two versions of TF3D running at the same time? I would like to keep TF3D and have this run on my fuze. Suggestions D-Man?
Good job, man. Can't wait to try...
1 min review:
Seems very usable. I like the look. I'm a compare it to the iFonz, like that it's not an app, but I still feel that if you can seperate the bottom four icons and put the page dots above it and have the same docking look as the iPhone. You're good to go Oh and I hate the fact that I can't have TF3D and have this running on Second Today I can only have one. No bugs so far. It seems pretty fast.

Yeah, i know, but i can't help here - i'm developing it in manila platform and it's not designed to run in multiple instances.
Cool ! man I love this UI

Um. Respect people please. This is a proper forum. Not for retards. K? Thanks. And if you were smart enough to know that TF3D (VGA Version) can run on QVGA devices and since this just replaces manila files, it should run on QVGA devices.
wow, saw the youtube vid, really fast! will try this when i get back home.
meccax5, why don't u "-mod removed moronic remarc by meccax5-"? heheheh
sorry for another flame...
Gonna test this out on my FUZE get back to ya ASAP!
thx

I understand the UI, but wondering if it was possible to make it so that TF3D still is the main hompage, and this becomes a replacement for the programs portion of WM6. I understand that it is iPhone like, but I like the TF3D, but would love to replace the programs folder with this instead of the WM6 version. Or even replacing the TF3D programs tab with this. Using it as a today screen cuts out alot of essential info. Just asking and giving feedback.

I basically said the same thing I think it would be possible, but D-Man would have to re-code it and change it, because I think it'd be hard to keep both of them. If you're want it like this only for the programs, I suggest you look into TouchXperience by schaps which should have a public beta by christmas >.> (I've been waiting ever so patiently for him to come out with it since it looks too good to be true and it's uber awesome and I could like talk about it all day since it's so awesome, but I won't because it's going to clog my whole post with TouchXperience)

To me (personal opinion) this is more of a app launcher (a nice one at that), and as far as TouchExperiance, I gave up on it and I think it has been abandoned.
tried it and like it!
it somehow slows down menu popup when im in app launcher thou, not at home screen
one more thing is sometimes it will restart itself when u add a shortcut, and u have to add a different shortcut instead of the one causing prob, then only able to add the one afterward

[Req] - WM6.5 Twitter Tab + notification

Hello dear community,
With this Id like to request a certain application that would increase my uptodateness by a lot. Yes a twitterplugin , cause i love twitter actually.
So to begin, I've comeup with a concept for it.. also to better explain what Ive got in mind

"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_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
[very simple mockup ]
Okay so basicly it has a
tabslide for updating your status
tabslides for unread tweets*
*cause tweets will only have 140 characters.. it will be possible to show them completely in the tabslide itself.. hovering over means.. it is read
avatar image
it has a function to show like unread text/email... but than how many unread tweets.
it should have a notification option in the sound/alarms section inside wm6.5 options.. so you can add your own sound/vibrate/mute to it.
and most important.. it should run in backround.. without popping up in the taskmessenger.
it should have options for how many times a day it will update (5 minutes/30 minitues etc)
clickable url's
extra - a sort of extra inprogram window ( this will mean you go out of wm6.5 today ). where you can see all tweets. or at least latest 100 or something
I hope someone can develop this, cause i think personally it will have a big target audience Me myself.. aint a programmer.. would like to, but i simply dont know where to start on it and/or how!
tx
strages
anyone? comon know some want it too
this would be really nice
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509388
this thread is also on developing a twitter tab for wm6.5
let me get my cabs working then I will see where I can go with mine. I like the idea though. If someone wants to beat me to it thats cool too.
Hey I really like your idea an what you've come up with....when will you make it available??

but im talking about how it looks in the first post on this page..that looks bad ass!! but im trying the other one to see whats what
Isn't twitter accessible via standard SMS? I thought most people use twitter in tandem with their built-in SMS system, and since you already have a txt plugin on titanium you should be good to go!
Sure, it would be nice to see the mailboxes kept seperate between tweets and all else, but personally I'd like to see an RSS feed or active tasks (i.e. the PIM tasks) since there is currently no other way to get that on the 6.5 today screen.
so if i use pocketwit on my phone right an send twitts, itll be using my text messages??? i ask cause i dont have an unlimited text plan an dont wanna get burned aka screwed with a huge bill!!!

Not necessarily. I said it CAN be used in tandem with SMS, and it shares many similarities (limited character message size, etc), however that doesn't mean you get charged for each tweet.
I don't know anything about pocketwit, but it may use data instead of SMS.
Most people I know use standard SMS instead of data, especially if they don't own a smartphone.
While I would agree that a twitter plugin is a cool idea (if you sms a lot, your tweets could get lost in the crowd), there are other potential plugins as I already mentioned that currently have no alternative. If it were up to me, I'd like to see those come out first.

gotcha!! but off hand do you know if pocketwit uses data or sms???
PockeTwit uses data.
thanks for the guys who like my idea.. hope someone can compup with the acutal program XD
ye pocket twit is using data .. you can send tweets by email i believe but of cours that would still be data connection required
It should be possible to build a panel a bit like Shocos Weather panel which comes in two MortScript parts:
1. Settings, stores stuff in the registry like username, password and frequencies of updates, default Twitter app
2. The downloading of the tweet, shouldn't be too hard as it's pretty similar to the weather panel (might need a little work on the avatars), just need the RSS feed [although saying that, I'm not 100% sure you can get a password requested XML file with Mort, damm!].
The only thing that I can't see being possible is the update page, as I'm not aware of any input boxes on the tabs, instead you could have a page showing your status, with clicking on it bringing up a Mort prompt for the new status.
