Hi All,
Thanks to this forum, my Herals looks great with a lot of apps and skins from the Touch.
But there is one thing which is still annoying me: the poor look of the standard calendar (and I use it a lot...). Is there a way that some of you guys develop a skin for the standard WM6 calendar, so that is has more the looks of the other Touch apps, with grey as major color?
Please do not suggest other calendar apps, for different reasons, I want to use the standard calendar.
Thanks in advance!
Have you looked at OtO (OneTouchOrganiser)?
It is a nice interface for the built in Calendar app
http://www.onetouchinnovation.com/
Development has slowed to a halt but the latest release still works
I already have Oto installed but for the day-by-day view, it still opens the standard calendar.
The looks are great, but for me, it cannot replace the standard calendar.
Nobody have any idea?

I love being able to access my calendar on my phone. However, it seems like I just get small chunks at a time with the built in calendar app. When I zoom out to see my whole week for example, I only see blue lines. I don't see exactly what the appointment is.
I know that is in no small way due to the limited size of the screen but I am looking for a more effective way to display my calendar.
I am currently trying pocket informant and it gets me closer to what I want. However, it has a couple screwy issues such as the bottom arrow of the scroll bar not being displayed etc.
So, what do you guys use? Or, are you happy with the built in calendar app?
Is there another forum that would be better for me to post this question? It's not directly related to the 8525 after all.
I'm using Pocket Breeze and very satisfied with it.
i use today agenda, its a killer app with many different customizations.. Dr. P got me hooked on this app!

I use SPB Diary, perfect today plugin that completely replaces the agenda. It's also the only today plugin I use or need.
I use SBSH.net PocketBreeze. I beta tested SPB Diary 2.0 and even tried the final version but wanted more control over customizing so I stuck by PocketBreeze. Still SPB Diary is also a fine product. You can't go wrong with either IMO. If you want to see your appointments in Calendar though I think you have to use one of those Power PIM apps [Agenda Fusion, etc etc] personally I find them overkill for my needs I stay with the default PIM and PocketBreeze.
I like pocketbreeze for the today screen display of the calendar. It's just when I go into the calendar app itself that I'm thinking there should be something better.
I'll check out your ideas. Anyone else?
I like the FREE Calendar+

Not a replacement for the MS Calendar, but rather a Today plugin.
I think it looks very similar to "View as Agenda" on blackberry.
also try out pocket informant alot of PB users also use that app.
Another vote for TodayAgenda. Excellent app. Free, small and highly configurable.
I've been using Pocket Breeze and Pocket Informant together since I had my old Orange M2000 and it works very well for me.
Hi all, does anyone know of a app (freeware preferably) that allows you to add tasks to your calendar (and you can check them off as you complete them). I've seen many checklists, but none where the task is shown on a calender. (think google calender, but with remember the milk added in). I'm really new to this stuff, so any help is much appreciated!

You can do this with PocketInformant - see pocketinformant.com .

it ain't freeware, but SBP Diary is the best program for this that I've ever come across... it is an absolute must-have for anyone who uses their device as a planner, IMHO.
Tabbed today screen plugin, one of the tabs (calendar tab) will show the appointments of each day for the next n days, and all tasks for that day, w/out a due-date, and/or that haven't come up due yet, etc.
it's very useful.. also has an email tab, a task tab (which just shows all tasks by category, etc), etc.
wonderful program. highly recommend. (no, I don't work for nor am affiliated with any pocketpc development companies =])
Thanks for information everyone. I like Pocket Informant so far, but everything feels very crammed.
I'm going to try SBP diary soon (if there is a demo that is)
Hi there,
the calendar application on the HTC Touch Diamond is nice and I use it a lot. However, I really miss the "touch features" that this phone offers in the other TouchFlow3D apps like viewing/browsing media such as Pictures, Music and People.
I want to use my thumb to 'slide' to the next day, or the next week or whatever. Is it possible to achieve this in the standard Calender on the touch diamond (windows mobile 6.1), or is there another calendar application out there which I should install?
Cheers!
Yes, there is another application called thumbcal. You can even connect the calender-link on manila home to thumbcal using SSMapa.
http://www.thumbapps.com/pages/home/thumbcal.php
Thumbcal is realy finger-friendly and it works perfect for me, but you only get a 14day trial for free on the legal way...
Cool
I'll try that, cheers!
Prefer TouchFlo3D to the Xperia's panels interface although both have their benefits. It would however be nice to add customised tabs to TF3D the way the panels interface allows. Has anyone managed to do this yet? Take it that it would probably involve using a customised ROM. Would love to have custom tabs like the Google and Facebook panels as well as further ones for things like Live Messenger, Twitter, and Flickr.
Bump. Great idea

Yeah me too, I saw a video on Youtube the showed many other tabs, so someone has managed to do it. I just wish I could switch between them without so much trouble.
Good idea, would be nice!
Looks like T-mobile Germany have got something similar in mind:
http://www.theunwired.net/?item=int...opera-to-introduce-widgets-for-windows-mobile
I assume though that adding more tabs might possibly slow down TF3D?
there are a couple tabs located somewhere around, but it's not like you can add any tab you like. default tabs are 11, there are 15-tabs packages which add calendar, sound, comm manager and calls list. you can search here for 15 tabs and you'll find them.
and yes, to my experience the 15tabs slow down tf3d (but at boot time mainly, browsing through them is still fluid)
So there's no custom ones out there then? Shame HTC don't open up the code to encourage custom built tabs.
I think the Windows Default (Zune-esque) interface for WM 6.5 is pretty neat, however, is there a way to customize (move/add/delete) the home screen list (Music, etc...)
There's an app in Windows Marketplace called "Home Screen Customizer" that does this.
There is also an entire forum on xda dedicated to this here. Search for "Showaco Chome Editor".
Facebook Help please...
Great thanks for the link, I have the ZuneHD and I want my phone to be just like it! I did search the forums/freeware but I cannot find a good .cab that will allow sync between facebook and tp2 and show updates like TF3D if I had a good contact program that could do this I wouldn't need TF3D!
Also was I the only one to notice that once you upgrade to 6.5 you lose the ability to sync birthdays?
So basically I need a cab that syncs birthdays and pics with facebook... like TF3D on the TmoUS stock TF3D ROM oh yeah and has a favorites screen.
Do I ask for too much... I am rather picky but who customizes and is not?
