How to set starting day to Sunday? - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

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)?

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.

Appointment reminder alarm

Hi All,
I am new to the touch HD since last week and I must say I am very impressed.
One thing I can't seem to get to work is when I set an appointment in the calendar with a reminder say 15 minutes before it shows on the home screen but I want an alarm to go off to remind me if it's tucked away in my pocket.
Anyone help.
P.S I have searched the boards but couldn't find the info

Go to the settings tab on TF3D, Select All Settings then go to the "Personal Tab" and select "Sounds & Nofications" finally make sure "Nifications" is ticked.

calendar reminder bug (?)

Not sure if this is my phone or how the HD2 is programmed: If a calendar event reminder is due while my phone is switched off, then I completely miss the reminder after I switch it back on. Same is true for alarms.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks.

This happens to me too.
I believe it goes as follows:
If the phone is completly switched off (not on standby),
the windows' event queue does not exist.
When the phone boots up, it re-builds the event queue from the time it is switched on.
Is it a bug ?
May be (maybe it's design flaw)
Is it an HTC bug or Microsofts ?
I Really do not know whom to blame
Should thay have saved the event queue on power off and reload it on bootup, instead of re-building?
probably.
On my WM2003, if I loaded the event queue from a backup,
and the event queue contained an overdue alarm/reminder
it would have just clogged the queue, and no remonders popped up,
Which is worse than skipping an alarm/remonder or two.
But - nevetheless, they should have fixed the problem, instead of dropping the alarms.
on a side note, does anybody know how to make the phone not remind you before 15 minutes and on the time?i just need to see the appointment is there on manila. ive loaded all my appointments from outlook - till june and on my outlook, ive turned the reminders for each individual one off. however, the phone still reminds me and its annoying. i dont really want to have to go through each one of them (theres 100) and turn it off. itll take me a day!
Som30ne,
thanks for your reply. At least I don't feel that there's something wrong with MY device, and that I need to send it back ---there is only something WRONG with my device.
Strangely enough, on my HTC Touch Diamond, these reminders (and alarms) seemed to work perfectly well and wouldn't miss a single event, so, in upgrading, either Windows or HTC have made a blunder.
Cheers!
munzab,
I know Outlook by default seems to remind you not only at the user set time before the event, but also when it starts to occur, but I don't think my HTC does that. And certainly not the 15 minutes before one.
Hi,
In my personal experience the ability to switch the phone on when an appointments et. is due is unavailable in Windows Mobile. I remember having this on Symbian S60 years ago but not on any Windows Mobile device.
For the second issue. In calendar menu, settings there is an option to change the deault reminder from anything from 1 week before to 5 minutes before as well as None. Have you tried setting it to None to see what happens? I haven't tried it but know its there. The standard alarm doesn't have a delay reminder option so its the time you set only I believe.
Hope this helps in some way.
Regards.

I have done this for htc, but i have the impression it will only do that for new appointments that are created on the pocket pc.
i can turn each one off by selecting one after the other and editing each. but not 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?

How to get sense.com dashboard working

Right, hope this works for everyone as I can't get my FB or nav working I tried to figure out how to get sense dashboard operational.
Tested on ARHD 6.3.1 over 2 fresh installs
Run set up (main menu) or from a fresh install
When you get to the scheduled Sync tab select - Automatically sync (you can change at a later time if your batt appears to drain)
Select your wifi (for speed purposes)
Allow googles usage
accounts - Input your google one (for market etc..) and any others you want to sync such as twitter and facebook stream/contacts.
Finish
Load up on your PC/tablet/mac... etc (was that PC enough?) https://www.htcsense.com/en_GB/#dashboard/ and then log in, input your mobile number in the international format for UK it is +44 then your mobile number omitting the FIRST zero, mine starts +447624
Once your on the dashboard you'll get a map on the left with the smallest button just above it that says refresh, but don't hit that yet.
Load up on your phone htc hub (you need this btw, DL the apk from droid website if you need it)
log in using the same details as the sense dashboard site and again input your mobile number in international format as per the above step
Once it logs you in you can DL some standard aps from htc direct but... hit that phones menu button and prod the options menu
Go to notification settings and uncheck 'New item notifications' this is so you don't get bothered about exciting new applications from htc
Exit, we're done in this one and then go into the next app which is called HTC likes and do the same as above remembering to go into the options and uncheck 'New item notifications'
Here's the final bit, go back onto your PC and click that refresh button and let it sync. Mine took around 2 minutes and from then on I could see where my phone was and make it ring
Mine does all that you have just described without any of the steps you just described.
I can make it ring and see it just by logging in to the website...
That's good, but I know a lot of people could never get it working

Thank you! I never get htcsense.com to be working on my DHD, will try your suggestions now.
