Hey there.
For your first Q, go to settings, personal, today, items, calendar and tap options on the left. You have the options to display upcoming events and all day events.
For the second I don't know
Cheers!

i feel like such a noob. thx for the advise but still no luck. either the rom is just messed up or its just ****e windows calender.
its just not user friendly like windows usually is; in my eyes anywayz.

start->settings->Sounds and notifications
notifications tab at the bottom of the page
select new text message from the Event drop down menu and tick the notification appropriate box
NOTE: you may have to do this from time to time as my HD does sometimes forget these settings !!!

How to set starting day to Sunday?

How to set starting day to Sunday? Currently my HTC touch diamond 2 is starting on Monday that I used to starting on Sunday? Any advice?

Go to Calendar, then Menu then settings and change the First day of the week to Sunday

Hmmm I don't have Menu button in calendar?!? What am I missing?

Nothing...but you must go into program callendar /TF tab only representives this../

Ah! Got it!
You need to go Programs/All Programs/Calendar to get under Touchflo's radar, then Menu/Tools/Options.
On going back to Touchflo, just select something other than Calendar and then go back to Calendar.
Thanks!

Cal question & comment
I had a hella of a time finding the cal in my ROM version. win6.5 Leo R4
Start --> Office Mobile --> Calendar --> Menu --> tools --> options
Whew.
My question. 1/2 my meeting gets cut off. Seems there is too much info in the meeting request and some dail-in numbers get cut off. anyone have any idea on how to extend the kb's so that the entire meeting request is sync'ed to the phone (from outlook)?

known issues HD2 for ROM 1.66.404.1

Hi all,
I'm experiencing some issues with my HD2, and so far they haven't been solved by HTC. I doesn't seem to find a "known issue list" per ROM, but may be I'm overlooking somehow. please let me know if there are answers to the following problems/ questions:
1. I cannot influence on the default display order of first name/last name when I sync my contacts with outlook. it always saves the "wrong way around"
2. when sending "long SMS" (text over 2 messages) the second one rarely arrives at the recipient.
3. the SMS forwarding option from the SENSE UI does not work properly: it suggests to forward the last message from the conversation modus, although I selected another one to forward. when I press "ok" from the status menu and try again, it works fine.
4. the SMS conversation modus of the SENSE only shows me the last 25 messages. when I delete some of these I get the older ones back one by one, filling up till 25 each time. I don't want to be cut after 25. Is there a setting?
5. The twitter peep app. refuses to pop a sound when a new tweet arrives, although this is setup in the sounds settings
6. Where can I set that I don't want to keep all the old tweets until the end of times? I would like to drop history older than let's say 1 week.
7. What happened to the "post time" of the tweets older than one day in the peep app? I want to keep seeing those!!
8. When I use the Google search bar from the SENSE UI, I get a nice results list. When I click these results, I go to an internal Google page that holds the main text of the internet page. at the bottom of that page I can click to go to the actual page. How can I set it up to go immediately from the results page to the actual internet page?
9. On my device it seems to be impossible to connect a bluetooth car kit headset to my device. It recognizes 20 phones that are in cars next to me but not my headsets (only tested with nokia devices).
responses much appreciated. other issues: more than welcome, but please check your ROM first.

2nd attempt

On point 9. Go to the settings tab and then click "menu" and "All Settings".
Now go to the bluetooth icon and make sure your phone is discoverable.
I had this same issue trying to pair my phone with my GPS to use the hands free functionallity.
Make sure you turn off discoverable mode once the devices are paired.
Good luck.

1 - download contact fix availble from the forums
8 - you need to go into the settings of google and change it to desktop not mobile view

i dont use the internet tab i just start opera from a quicklink but once changed it should stay

1.
You have to save each contact as firstname and then surname. This you do when opened a contact, edit, then scroll all the way down to the bottom. Press the big button "MORE". Here you can "Save as" and choose first name, then surname.
Yes, from what I know, you must do this with every contact individually. When it's done, you should be able to sync and they should stay that way. At least this is what I've done, and it works for me.

1. There's a cheap app in the Marketplace called Contact Changer that will display all your contacts how you'd like.
5. Yep that's annoying. It makes the alert noise when it updates but not when you get a new tweet. Odd.
8. There's a permanent setting in Google settings to change this.

is there any fix for No. 4?
