[REQUEST] Save uncompleted tasks to registry - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
I looked for a solution everywhere I could, and I asked too in the sticky thread about general questions and answer, without result.
Ok I would like to have a little application able to save on registry the tasks still not completed.
In few words, something very similar to "Apptx":

The only difference would be treating tasks instead of appointments.
The main reason is to see tasks using applications like rltoday, batterystatus, WAD2 etc. able to read from registry and to show on today screen.
Thank you very much for your help.

dev-wiki and tasks-plugin

Hi there, does anyone know how and/or where the calendars tasks are stored? As a first application i would like to do something like a home-screen plugin to display the tasks, or even code a little program to display them in a more sophisticated way than the std-program does. Any link, help?
AH yeah, btw I set up a wiki vor development on Vox, maybe we can get some things together there which are also usefull for all the other phones. Have a look at the WiKi

Lack of Agenda Space

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.

Calendar Tab in Manila 2D

Hi!
I'm running a Manila 2D interface on my Trinity, and am having problems with the
Home Tab: I can't get the calendar to show at least one appointment.
I've been searching the forums for 2 days now, without success. I know that using a SPB shell that looks like Manila would solve my problem, but that's not what I want.
What's bugging me most is the fact that it used to work, but at some point in the past the calendar stopped showing my appointments.
Please, could someone give me a hint what I have to do, or what registry entry I have to tweak....?

Thanks for the quick reply, I appreciate the help.
But I couldn't find anything that gives a solution to my
problem, just similar questions that weren't answered.
I can't believe that so few people are only having a
problem with this short calendar style. I know that there
are apps like ThumbCal, but I need the calendar info on the
today screen.
I am totally willing to mess with the registry or the xml file,
but I need someone who points me in the right direction.
Kindly Post your Question in the Manilla Thread itself, or in the Q&A Forum

Mobile shell, Gsmart, m2d,...default app

I've been searching through all the threads, and while there are questions relating to this, there appear to be no answers.
I'll appologise to admins and wizards in advance right now. Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I've been searching for a month now, and I've found nothing that works.
All I want to do is change the default apps for windows mobile. You can do it in Windows; why not WM? I've tried SPB Mobile shell, Gsmart (which I really like), and Manilla 2D. I can't change the default apps for Calendar, SMS, Clock, etc.
The ssmapa app won't work. Don't know why just gives an error when 'Init' is clicked. Can't find any info on that error, and I've tried all the other suggestions I've seen.
Haven't been able to find a pointer to anything in the Registry that would allow me to change the default app. I've edited the reg to stop tmail.exe being the default app, but I still get it popping up when I click the messages button.
Can anyone provide details on how to edit any of the shell apps, or the windows registry; which one I don't care. If I can find one that'll work, I'll use that app.
This is driving me a bit mad.
I thank the people who've written up how to's on the xml for spb, gsmart, manilla, and the like. They're useful for changing the look of the shell, but not the functionality. They are really great additions to the forum.
Great work guys (and gals ).
Any help would really be appreciated, prior to me forcibly removing all my hair folicles.
If this has been covered, can someone please post a link to the exact place in the thread. If you can, that would mean that, apparently I can't use the search function properly.
Thank you all, and great forum.
