All your Contacts? Or just some of them (e.g., Quickdial)?
If you just want key contacts for quick access, there is a cool product called Face Contact by CNetx that might work. If you want ALL contacts, I have not seen one....
Yeah, I have been thinking about this too, would be great if iContact could be made into a Today Plugin. I will pose this question in the icontact thread.

Try SPB Phone Sweet. I know you have to pay for it but there are plenty of places were you will be able to find it below one penny if you get my drift, I just cannot post them on the site. SPB Phone Sweet will allow you to post picture contacts, up to 15 I believe on the Today Screen. Really good function program which I used in conjuction with SPB Pocket Plus but have since then moved to SPB Phone Suite. Good luck.
first... thx for the answer´s and sry about my English
So i really looked for a today plugin who show ALL CONTACTS, like icontact i have now Facecontacts, thats great but i can only show a few contacts or all with many work... spb.... hm i have ultimate launch if i use spb too my kaiser will be slow i think.... so lets search another one
I wrote it in BURT thread...
I got UL too and in combination with spb phone suite there is no problem. My HTC touch is slower
ok but i think this have to look so:
Even I am looking for such thing from quite a while now.. but without luck.. I am trying to search or develop something which can integrate programs like Icontact/PCM image viewer to today screen.. Something like we can see in HTC Diamond but with less memory usage.. There are prgs like Throttle Launcher which does this, but heavy on memory.. consumes like more than 10 MB.. Anyone has any idea on how can we achieve this..
try this
you can use face contacts, its the best looking contact plugin available. and it scrolls like s2p cover flow (but smoother)
if u read u will see.... i use this.... but its not so good i think
As I've mentioned in Icontact thread
use one of your softkeys to invoke Icontact, or use Mortbuttons - you can assign one in today screen with Icontact and other phone app inside
Again Pisca, how does this establish a today plugin
1. not only icontact, any software what can do this, but in the today screen.
2. if u can look on my today screen? NO SoFTKEyS
I have set Spb Diary to show photo contacts on the Today Screen and it works out great...

See post in Icontact thread
You can also use DialTab.
Everything listed here are the best options. Trying to fit all of iContact as a plugin on your today screen eliminates the app itself. Doesn't make much sense to me.
Perhaps "Ineosoft Adressbook". You have a bar on the todayscreen, like the HTC Random Access and then the adress is popup. Have a look on it.
Or we can make a shortcut to HTC Random Access for the today screen.
i am currently playing around with my own made C# picture dialer that is displayed as a today item (very early beta i might add ). it enables a user to see pre defined photo contacts (which is of course nothing new).
as with most photo dialers, a long (2 second) press on the photo dials the number that belongs to the contact. (it also has an option to assign two numbers to one photo contact, which i find very usefull, eg the first number is dialed when you press the photo for two seconds, the second number is dialed when you press the photo for four seconds.)

Hi to you all...
Just got my DIAMOND and I'm thrilled with it!
I have some doubts and would like to aks your help to see them solved.
The doubts are:
1st - As anyone figure it out how to have a AGENDA "chapter" on Touchflo that could allow one to see today events or 2 or 3 days events, as if it was a Pocket Breeze plug-in...such as we have Wheather...Photos and Videos...Contacts...Definitions....Internet...Music...etc...???
2nd - Is there a software that allow everybody to change not only the softkeys assigned programs, but as well the other buttons (the home button and the other one with the arrow)?
3rd - I've already installed a brand new rom...and it's a lot faster but comes without the huge pack of ringtones...all I wanted was BIRDS2 ringtone. Can anyone tell me if I can find this ringtone anywhere?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
1) As yet, nothing has been figured out here. Sorry...You can use programs which provide a Second Today homescreen. There are two such programs: Manila Control (which is better I think most would agree), and SecondToday. Just do a search for them.
2) I don't know. I'll let someone else answer.
3) Give it a search! Or wait for God-knows-how-long.
Has anyone got any news about this???
I would be thrilled if I got to have in my tf3d a new tab with my agenda...and if I could change the assigned progrmas for the two upper button of my diamond (the home button and the arrow button)!!!!
Anyone can help me?
here is the ringtone.
it's not possible to have a agenda tab unless someone coded it from scratch i guess
for the button, u might want to try AEButton plus
To be honest, I tried the touch flo 3d, the home 2, but the only thing I like is the normal, clean windows mobile today screen i like it, its neat , organized, and the xperia wallpaper gives it an elegant look. I alos modified the left menu key to initiate a new sms
what do u think?
I like it's neat clean look, but I prefer using the SE Today Panel.

Same here, a big fan of Winmo Today screen. When I jumped ship from Palm OS to Winmo, the Today screen really makes me forget I ever had a Palm OS device... Although the fond memories of rock hard stability creeps out now and then.
Currently Using itje's incredible Touch-IT v4.5 ROM. The Touchflo is nice, but more of a gimmick then anything else... Give me plain old Today screen anytime.
It just seems easier on the Today screen, that's why I have a lite rom installed, along with TF3d and panels.
I tend to always end up back at the default today screen. Something just nice about it.
Yeah I use it all the time now as it seems to be the most customisable without being fiddley and does all I want it too... I would like a today that is a combination of several of the panels but so far have found nothing that I like more than the normal today...
i use the today screen as my default screen when at work as i like to be in control of how many appointments are displayed, reminders, etc. it's nice to be able to switch to another panel for the weekends though ...
i'm a bit concerned about some of the screenshots for wm 6.5. does the today screen still exist ?
The standard Today just works. Give you access to what a PDA is for, PIM. There is a plugin called TodayAgenda which makes it perfect though.
glad you guys think the same way
btw, any idea how to make a shortcut for the start button? I downloaded a program, H button, that enables me to long press a key and a program comes up... but i want to access the start menu that way

Are you trying to assign a hardware key to Start Menu? If so, go to Start>Settings>Buttons
All this talk is making me want to use the Today panel more! I just tweaked it a little bit and I'm going to give it a try next week.
Does anybody know of a way to get more programs on it? Skype is on the list, and I think TomTom is, but I'd like a couple others.
I need to use the today screen to see the G-Alarm plugin, how much Internet traffic I had this month (SPB Wireless). Also I find it very convenient to use Elecont Dialer (a scrollable row of contacts to call or sms) and Elecont Launcher (a scrollable row of apps).
So I usually end up using it, even if SPB Shell is more touch-friendly. It just doesn't display all the information I need in one screen.
I always seem to go back to the spb panel as my default. its simple and looks clean i think compared with tf3d and point ui. im hopeing that when the new 3.0 shell comes out that it wont replace the spb x1 panel (although i know it will).
I've tried all the panels, shells etc. You name them, I've tried them. As said before, the Touch-IT v4.5 ROM is nice, but gimmicky. I admit I've installed it, but only to get GPS tagging of photos. I untick it in Start -> Settings -> Today -> Items immediately after it's installed.
I appreciate all the work that's gone into developing it, but its way too busy for me
My preferred interface is iFonz 2. The interface can be as simple or as 'busy' as you like. I prefer to have just a few icons of the programs I use regularly on screen as well as icons for the frequently called contacts. Also its very finger friendly.
For the programs that I use infrequently, it's no hassle to find them in Start -> Programs, and contacts are easy to find in iContacts
Caps
Hart and soul of my machine.
without it, I had never changed to a winmo device.

Hey friends, I'm with you. I think the today screen is one of the best inventions of Microsoft and is really underrated. It just makes sense to have active plugins share the most precious place on a mobile - the information screen after switching the device on. I think the iPhone is ridiculous in this regardö - just showing icons of the programs that can be launched is lame. Also, there are really powerful plugins available for Windows Mobile. I'm personally using the built in date/time and messages plugin together with PocketBreeze for all the organizer stuff and PocketPlus for system status (battery, memory), finger friendly app launcher and additional plugins as tab (spb weather actuall). Then I use the system tray as quicklaunch and for showing the currently selected phone profile from PhoneWeaver and my softkeys start Contacts and WM5NewMenu, with which I can very quickly place a new appointment, SMS, Email, Note and so on. With this setup, I can really use the device, not only play. Everything is just one or two clicks/actions away and I always have a good overview of what's going on.
I really don't understand why so many people want a better iPhone instead of a good Windows Mobile device. Windows Mobile has drawbacks but also strong points, of which the today screen is one of the strongest I think.
I am also a big fan of the Windows today page. I think it's the only one that can be entirely adapted to everyone's need, all other software are nice graphically, but not as effective as a well prepared today page.
Hello HD2 world
I'm new to HTC world, previously I had an Eten. HD2 is a sexy device, yet I have some issues I would like to fix :
1°) Calendar
Am I missing a point or the HTC calendar isn't able to copy/paste/move appointments in week view or add an appointment by selecting the day in the week view ? I really miss these features.
Any way to enable them ? Or is it possible to install back the original poutlook calendar from ms ?
Also I have the 1.43 ROM, is it possible to install the 1.48 calendar which fixes the week view issue without flashing the ROM (just installing a new cab for the calendar ?)
2°) Keyboard
I really miss the feature of the ms keyboard : slide to right to add a space, slide to left to backspace, slide up to caps and slide down to enter key ... any way to enable this on HTC keyboard or revert to ms keyboard ?
3°) Today screen
I like Sense, but I miss some today plugins ... is it possible to have a Today screen embedded inside a sense tab ? This would allow to keep some today plugins and have the best of both worlds
Thank you for your help,
Nibbler.
Hello Nibbler,
did you already find any solution to your problems?
I am facing pretty much the same problems but could not find anything regarding these issues so far.
I would especially be interested in a solution for the copy & paste functionality inside the calendar.
Best wishes from Germany,
Hoss.
I can't remember what it's called, but there is a today tab for TouchFLO somewhere in the forums (it won't be in the HD2 forums, I don't think - try the blackstone ones, or just search from the root).
It may work with Sense - I don't know.
HTC Touch 2 Help...!!!
Hi HTC Touch 2 Users And Everyone Else...!!!
I Need Some Help With My New HTC Touch 2...!!!
I Am New To Windows Mobile And HTC...!!!
I Searched Every Forum For Some General Information...!!!
Some Questions Are Answered Some Not Really...!!!
I Hope That Users Here Can Help Me A Little...!!!
1. Wich Kind Of Themes Can I Use For My Touch2...???
( I See Things Like WAI, II and WA3 VGA ve QVGA themes ) ( WAD Themes )
2. What Is All That Stuff About Manila etc. ...???
3. How Can I Change All The Backgrounds Of TouchFlo...???
Home Screen Is Easy To Change But The Rest Didnt Work...!!!
Thx In Advance For All Your Help...
Please No Answere Like " DID YOU USE SEARCH...???"
My Eyes Are Bleeding From Searching And Reading...!!!
Hello Bulut, ofcourse we want to help you.....although your questions are not very hard to find....
1 Themes for your device should be QVGA or re-size them to 240x320 (PNG format).
2 What is all that stuff about Manila? Depends a bit what you want to know.....in general you can say that it is an additional layer on top of window mobile to control your device.....with functionality like slider bar etc. etc.
In the manual of your phone you can find a lot of info or on XDA ofcourse. You can download manual here...http://www.htc.com/www/userguide.aspx?p_id=291
3 Use M2DC. This program let's you easily change home screen and that of all tab's; use "background" in M2DC and select the theme you have put in folder of your device.
Succes and have fun
I think 2 he was asking what Manilla actually is, it's just the american name of TouchFlo.
Thx For The Answeres...
I Have A Little Problem With M2DC...
I Installed It...

Thx In Advance ( And Sorry For My Bad English )
what settings did you change mate? go to M2DC and on the second to last tab click "restore settings"
I Didnt Change Anything...
It Happens As Soon As I Install It...
Thats Crazy... I Tried It Now 3 Time With 3 Diffrent M2DC From Here...!!!
SOFT & HARD RESET
I Hope My Phone Will Not Die From All This HardCore ( Hard Resets )
Hello Bulut,
- You should take M2DC version 0.29.235 = latest.
When you only install M2DC nothing happens to the theme you have already installed.
First back-up you current theme (and settings) before installing a new one.
From picture see that you have a custom theme installed. Where did you get it from?
It can happen that a theme although suited for your device will not work. Happened to me ones. I deleted it and went on to find a new one.
- In my Rom the fav. does not work well either.....but I have a custom Rom...perhaps somebody can react to this.
