I am trying to customize an Iphone based theme that will have one screen serve as contacts, which will act the same way the contacts screen does on the cube. but where i fall short is how do i pass an argument to the phone app that will allow the phone to dial the person once i save their contact info as one of my icons. If what im asking is not clear. just let me know and i will try to clearify it the best i can, thanks for any help in advance.

By now there is quite a few diffrent finger friendly hacks/apps for contacts, dialing, sms etc. but as far as I know there is still no finger friendly Calender hack. I often have to add a appointment to my calender and it would be great if it could be done with a few finger clicks
Something like a screen where you choose date and time, write a appointment text and choose yes/no to alarm.
I dont know if its only me who is missing such an app/hack. But i really think such an app would be very usefull.
And if someone makes such an app someday i will gladly donate a couple of beers
Though it turned out to be a tad too cumbersome for me personally, perhaps you could find some use in this Calendar alternative, called Date Lens. Here's the link: http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/fishcal/
If you feel like reading, the presentation that was made by one of Date Lens' developers to Bill Gates explains lots of the features.
Transcription is here; start reading from "BEN BEDERSON: Thanks, Bill."
Also, try this prog: DeveloperOne AGendaOne. It makes things easier for use with the thumb.

Hello Chico.
Welcome to the forum!
I know there is a lot to read here but please start with the rules. They don't just tell you what not to do, but also how to post to get the beast and fastest results.
I removed your email address from you post because by putting it in the open you expose it to spammers. As long as it is in your profile any forum user can email you simply by clicking your user name at the top of the post.
(If you wish you can put it back but I advise against it).
Finally, while I understand your enthusiasm to improve your phone I suggest you pinpoint your question and go for a specific feature one at a time.
Installing everything all together may mess up your phone.
Since you are bothered by SMS not being grouped check out this app for starters: Threaded SMS

Welcome on-board.
And very nice it is too!!.
Of course you realise you have missed out on posting the obligatory half dozen noobie questions about "how do I do a soft reset" etc and gone straight to achieving something by reading up on things
What will now happen of course is that you will get folk requesting "please can you send me that as a cab please"
Mike
Please can you please send me that cab please???
Seriously, excellent job.
Nice RL Skin!
Hey Im trying to design a Wii and Voyager skin. Would you share you xml and mortscripts for RL so I can use them as a template for the skin I what to create? Here is a preview of what I want it to look like. Thanks.
Thanks, but I didn't use any Mortscripts in my skin, all the icons are program launchers in ultimate launch. I use Spb Mobile Shell to launch settings etc.
The look you want can easily be achieved with rl today doing your clock, ultimate launch handling your icons and a nice tsk. for your background (if this is all u want then I can help!)
Great Skin
I really like your skin. It is very well done. How long did it take you to create it? I've been trying to find a skin I like for some time that could simplify the use of WM and make it more finger friendly. I was starting to think that the only way I would be able to get a skin the way I want it is to make it myself. I don't know how long it would take to learn how and then do it and sure if I have the time. If you are willing to share any of your work or the how to it would be greatly apprciated.
Love your clock and layout
Hi Redflag,
Too nice! Just finished knocking up a Rl Today "clock only" to top off my UL screen. Found Pocket Digital clock to be too tall on TytnII.
Can now use Rumball's awesome WeatherPanel schemer.
Your clock is sooo much nicer. May I trouble you for the skin file?
Thanks

Is there a program, similar to SPB Phone Suite profiles, that enables you to change the ringtones that you have.
I would like to have one set of ringtones for when I am at work, and one for when I am not at work. Without going in and manually changing all the ringtones, id like to be able to essentially hit a button and change multiple ones.
Get the jist?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
KC

Wow!! Your first post on this forum is for a number of programs that can be found using the search function on this site or google. Stinkin amazes me!! This forum is meant for development not order filling your requests. Use Search....Alot!!!
Yeah, um I'll take a double cheeseburger, giant fry, 2 cherry turnovers and a diet coke....you always have to have the diet coke!!!
Want a free one?
Try SOB, the link is in my signature.
Isn't this forum's idea to help people and be kind?
Or is the purpouse always to complain when newbies asks for help?
I agree that the search option is something that's ment for being used, but...
If you could spend the time to complain, you certainly could use it to help someone new on this forum.
That's a real contribute to this excellent place on earth for us PPC owners.
Search!

I've posted in the Clock forum with hardly a response. Is anyone addressing the basic issue with business use of TF3D? The Today screen, while attractive, is not well suited to the original purpose; to see mail, appointments, etc at one glace. It uses up so much room needlessly, that there is no room for appointments.
The clock is about twice as big as necessary. Missed calls are not so critical as to need an entire line. Then last is what needs to be first, the agenda. Room for one appointment isn't even close to what a business person needs; we need the bulk of our day at a glance. In this respect, the original MS Today screen was far better, primitive as it is.
The fix is easy in concept. A clock half the size, and dropping the Missed Calls section in favor or an notification icon or something similar would allow room for 3-4 agenda items, which is acceptable in most cases. The question is, does TF3D let one make these kinds of changes? Anyone?

'The fix is easy in concept' is the key words here...
In reality It's not easy...
personally I don't know why you opened a new thread on this subject.. you have already done/asked the same statement/question...
I agree with you.. I would also like to have more appointments, etc on the Home tab...
If you'll have a look around here in the forum you will see that there is research going on on the subject of altering the programming of manila files...
But needless to say It's not easy! (or there would be more changing, more tabs, more of everything in TF3D)
Do a search about it... maybe you can contribute with your knowledge and programming experience?
Yes, I do understand that concept is different than implementation.
It is a new thread because clock design is not the primary topic, it is a means to an end. Also, because I had received no response previous to yours here. Thank you.
