Hello,
I'm a current Xperia user. I am considering a move to the TP2. One thing I would like to know is whether, after the latest WM 6.5 ROM upgrade, the ability to make appointments has been improved. Is it now integrated into Manila, or still the standard windows screen?
Also, is there the week view in Manila agenda?
Thanks a lot!

Let me know as these two things combined (as well as a possiblity of TF3D as a panel) would make WM 6.5 very irresistable...
I just noticed there is an update for Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile 2007 R2 posted on MS's website:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969816
The release notes state there is Homescreen support for new Homescreens in WM 6.5+, plus integration within the phone dialer of 6.5+ phones. I assume then that WM 6.5 is almost ready?
Anyone with a 6.5 ROM installed this update yet? If so what are the new 6.5 features like? I am particularily interested in the integration with the phone dialer.

Tested this new version is working on 6.5 ROM Topaz cooked rom. Although in chome editor I could enable a tab for communicator, it doesn't appear on Today screen Titanium. Guess something is missing in the cpr or something.

Not sure if you got yours working or not but if you enable the "Display on Today Screen" option under General settings it will activate a panel in Titanium..
cheers..
Are there any ROMS out there that are running WM 6.5 without any manila additions? I installed NRGz's latest titanium ROM in the hopes that it would meet the criteria above but it wasn't the case. While HTC home and all that jazz was not available, I had some manila like features specifically on pop-notification windows, i.e. email, sms and meeting reminder notifications.
Anyone know of a clean ROM without all the HTC enhancements?
Miri's standards rom are what you want
Solution found, thread closed
Hi
I use Handbase since years (Palm, Winmob). Now I have the new HTC HD2 (Leo). Date picker is not usable, because it seems too large. It shows only some days of the calendar, is not scrollable and the OK-button
can not be pressed. May be it is a scaling problem. In other
applications the HTC datepicker is normal scaled so it can be used. Is there a possibility to cheange the behaviour of the datepicker? Or is it possible to change datepicker (like iPhone style)?
Thanks for help
You will have to talk with Handbase about this as it is their code.
You have to remember that this is the first WVGA capacitive screen (with multi touch) on WM, technically WM doesn't support capactitive or multi touch - HTC did a little developing of their own. While there are some apps that were already 'touched', Resco Explorer for one, most are not and while they may work fine (and are usable) they should have their interfaces updated to take advantage of this new technology.
Hi there,
David Devaney, Jr. from DDH Software here.
We've received two reports of this problem already through our Support team. I have been testing this today to try to determine the problem. We had tested HanDBase on WM 6.5 before any devices were released and didn't encounter any usability problems. I double checked today that it would run on a WM 6.5 WVGA device using the emulators provided by Microsoft.
Based on my testing this likely has something to do with the Sense UI. I had no problems on the emulator with the Date Picker but then it uses the standard WM UI. So far I've not had any luck finding any development details on HTC's website or any special emulators from them. I actually came to this forum today to see if there was any information on developing for the Sense UI or if any other developers were having problems, as well as to see if a ROM was available that will work in the Emulator. I will search for those things so we can try to do some additional testing.
I am curious, since we don't have an HD2 here, if there is any setting to exclude certain applications from using the Sense UI. I know when Microsoft first added the ability to have larger screen resolutions there was a setting where you could tell the OS not to use that for certain applications that didn't yet support that.

No, it doesn't look like there's any way to disable the large date pickers. There are a couple of places in Inesoft Cash Organizer where dates are not directly enterable, and no-one has found any way to make the standard WM dialogs appear yet. In the case of Cash Organizer you can see the dialog but the value never makes it back to the date field...
I deactivated Sense UI and use the default Today screen with SPB PocketPlus but this issue seems to be because Sense UI is imbedded into the OS for some dialogs.
6.5 Rom that does work with Handbase
Hi to everyone - glad to come across this thread & see I was not the only one experiencing this problem. I have a Touch Pro2 or Rhodium & tried the following Roms - all had the same datepicker issue:
- [ROM][WWE] 24-Dec ● DeepShining v7 ● Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE | Leo 2.01 | WM 21887
- [ROM][24/DEC/09]CELL PRO SERIES[The Cell Evo V2][Cell Pro V9.5]UP NOW & Video Preview (this is a 2.1 ROM)
- [ROM][WWE] 24-Dec ● DeepShining v7 ● Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE | Leo 2.01 | WM 21887
- |STABLE-FAST-PRO|ROM|21885,28014|Josh's New PerfectBlack 1.7-FINAL!|12-26|Sense 2.1| & Test 3 & 4 versions
- [ROM][WWE]|27-12-09|Rhodium_AF|HTC Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE|LEO 2.XX|WM65 21887|ONLINE| (may have been an earlier dated rom)
- Miri WM65 21885 V9.0 Manila 2.5
The only newer ROM (either Sense 2.1 or 2.5) I could find that didn't have this problem was the Miri WM 6.5 21885 :: MANILA 2.1 :: V 7.0. The date picker is normal. With the non-working ROMS I tried every registry font change I could find with no effect.
Hope this information helps a bit.
Folks,
I like to run my HD2 with the standard today screen (not Titanium), and I populate it with several of the standard plug-ins, notably including date/time and calendar. I then add some apps like SPB Weather, SPB Phone Suite, and a quick-launcher to get my complete experience.
What I'd really like is that same experience except with 6.5.3 instead of 6.5. I previously installed an Energy ROM but found that most of the standard today plug-ins were missing. Can anyone suggest a 6.5.3 ROM that is as close to "stock" as possible, including the standard today plug-ins?

I would also like to knoe if there is a rom like this. same as stock...just really snappy in performance
I am looking for a ROM that is similar to stock, includes standard old-school WM today plug-ins, and is 6.5.3 or later.
Does such a thing exist? Or did MS remove the standard old-school WM plug-ins in versions of WM post-6.5?
Which standard plugins are you referring to? Calendar, Tasks, Messages, and the like? I am using the Elegancia ROM with titanium right now, but when I turn it off those plugins are there, and I'm pretty happy with that as well.
