Calendar look further in to future (homescreen) - HD2 General

Is there a way i can make my calendar look further in to the future for appointments? I have loked around but currently i dont get appointments shown beyond the next day or 2, I would prefer the next 5 events or so to be displayed!
(I have installed the tweaked cab from the hints section to get more calendar appointments displayed on the home screen).

I also want this feature!!!!!!
Anyone?

Me to, want this feature.

Calender with more future appointments
Hi, Calender on the HD2 default Homescreen does not show more appointments. My workaround is this :-
1 - install SecondToday - this adds another Today homescreen.
2 - install o2plusV2.3 - in this, the calender application will show the next 10 future appointments or the next 10 days. The cab file is o2plus2.3 >> see this link

I have used this on my o2zinc, htc HD and now HD2.
Hope it helps

You can get more than 1 appointment on your home screen on the hd2 without running 2 home screens, if you look in the themes section there is a cab (i forget which but if i find it i will link) that gives you 16 or 20 shortcuts and a calander that shows more than one appointment. The problem i have is how far forward sense is looking for appointments.

As I have stated, 10 future appointments - can be all 10 happening the next day OR these 10 spread out over the next few weeks/months.
There is this option for U to choose :- show the next 10 appointments OR the next 10 days including days without appointments.

.. and, as he clearly states, he is talking about doing it in only one homescreen. Not two, as you are talking about.
geekyhawkes: The author of the cab you are talking about, if I'm not mistaken, is working on showing more appointments on the homescreen.

What can be shown on Homescreen of the HD?

Hi Folks,
i´ve just ordered my Touch HD, and i hope it will come to me before Santa (end of November i guess).
My question is: what can be seen on the homescreen of the HD? Today i use my good old friend, the wizard100. On the Todayscreen i have full Battery and Storage information, Weatherforecast for 4 Days, and calendar appointments showing up to 3 days. Also a today-link for tomtom. Is TF3D able to show this too? I need to see all these things on just one quick view. How customizable is TF3D?
Of coz u can.
Just install the softwares.
Which softwares in particular are you referring to?
My question was how many things is TF3D able to do without any external software. On my Wizard 100 i´ve installed following software: SPB Weather, SBSH Phoneweaver, SPB Time, Calendar+ , DeviceLock, Battrey Status nad TomTom. Except Tomtom i hope that TF3D could show me things like weather,Appointments and other things without installing other software. I like to use the HTC Homescreen, but i dont know how many information it is able to show?
Afaik it has the same home screen as the Diamond but probably with a little more info because of the added screen height. The diamond home screen shows clock, missed call status and first next calendar item.
And this is what i wanted to know: Do you think the HD would show more informations than the normal TF3D from f.e. the Diamond? This must be an complete different TF3D, or not?
It's not completely different, it is in fact rather similar. It has the same tabs bar the stock tab, and most tabs just show a little more info to complement to extra screen height. Also, it has very nice transitions between FLO/programs, much like the iPhone zoom effect.
Same trick is applied on the HD to make it 'feel' more slick and responsive.
Anyway, if you look at the French video on YouTube you will catch a glimpse of many of the tabs, including the home tab. It shows exactly the same stuff as on the Diamond, except I am guessing it will show more upcoming calendar events in the bottom.
You have a choice between TouchFlo3D or the normal Windows Mobile that you used to.
What you have on it will depend what Apps you like, its like your old PDA / PDA Phone. In other words, almost anything.
If you are just talking about the homescreen itself, than you get to see the same thing like on the touch diamond but when you scroll down, the list will be much longer so you can see more appointments. which is a good thing
oh and in the case you didn't know:
there is also a new "customize tabs: rearrange and remove tabs" setting !!

HD - Home Calendar skin cab like in the Calendar Tab from SINGH

hi there, so mnay threads now in this section...i' search but was wondering if it will be possible for some Masters like panosha to make a black and white HD calendar skin ..if i remember well, i saw somme screenshots somewhere here and may be it exists already..... thanks....
please call me stupid .... i haven't seen that the calendar tab from Singh in the 15 tabs TF3D cab is exactly what i wanted ^_^
so now next request.... how to link the Calendar on home screen to the skin like in the Calendar Tab ??? when i tapped the calendar home link , i have the
horrible WM green and white and electric blue calendar .... thanks in advance ......
I'm interested too but I don't see the example that you say in 15 tabs thread?
Bye
Thumbcal
Do a search for Thumbcal. Although it is commercial software, you can try it for 14 days and I think you will love it - I do!
It goes very well with the Touch Flo interface and replaces the default calendar. It also deals with tasks within the calendar app.
Let me know what you think... I haven't bought it yet but am very tempted... i can finally use my calendar without the stylus!
There is also a new calendar comming from SBSH that I saw "leaked" today

Though I am not running any of their software yet on my HD, I have found their software excellent - I will give this a try when its out to see what it's all about.
hum...thanks but you don't understand, ..i just want a skin like the black calendar of the SINGH tab ......not an App
I'm also interested for just a skin for the official agenda of windows mobile 6.1.
Thanks
SINGH ....where a re you ????
I'm here.

I agree! Thumbcal is fantastic. I came across this thread while searching for a calendar tab for TF3D. I found one but it does absolutely nothing. Also, the Calendar 'link' underneath the clock always brought up that awful Windows calendar, which I hate. I gave Thumbcal a try and now when I tap on the Calendar link underneath the clock, Thumbcal comes up. YES!
I will definitely buy this one. I had previously been using AgendaOne but I likeThumbcal much better. It's more user friendly and definitely worth the money.
Oh, and I should mention that I'm not bothered about a Calendar tab now. It's nice to have quick access to the calendar from TF3D so an actual tab for it doesn't really matter to me anymore.
Even I Require a Skin...
Even I Require a Skin for the ugly looking default calendar in Touch HD...pls pls pls....TIA

Can you get it to open anything except the day view? I'd really like a week view, but yes 100% better than the default one.
I try Thumbcal : what a shame : It take an hour to be launch on my HD (but interface is very nice and it's a pleasure to use it), when SBSH take a second...

How to change TF3D Calendar

Hi,
I am running a HTC Diamond and have switched off TF3D mainly because of the crappy homescreen. Instead of that HUGE clock and fat calendar entries, I rather have Calendar++ today plugin and all the details for the next 3 days in a small font on my screen.
Can someone tell me if there is a hack/patch/theme/whatever to get a better calendar event list for the TF3D?
thanks!
Oliver
TF3D2. Look for it!
I have this of the photo. 3 appointments in the scrren with the big clock and five with the small clock. But i use a custom rom with manila2 , and i have done this modification myself by using manila file from hd for the first screen.. (I made clock a bit smaller and move everything to make space for 3 appointment)
XBMOD made for us his great manila with all your wishes, include multi appointment on home screen (5 appointment in small fonts...)

Newb Manila Today Calendar Question

Sorry, for asking this, I've looked and searched but couldn't find anything.
Is there any way to force the Manila Today screen to show appointments that go further than today or the next day. TBH I think I liked regular WiMo calender today plugin because it shows appointments that are as far as a week away, however I really enjoy using TF3D and I really like the look of it's "Today" screen.

Multiple appointments in the 6.5 lockscreen?

Is it possible to set for example the 3 closest upcoming appointments displayed on the wm6.5 lockscreen even if they are days ahead?
I want the same here... this happened to me today... I had 4 appointments and could only see 1
it would have been better to have smaller font or something and more appointments.
Well ... could be nice to set the amount of appointments/ birthdays/ etc.
and their fonts by myself !!!!!!
Yes this is a Common feature and this does exists in the Official WWE rom. I do have this.
I can see 3 appointments in my home screen and can minimize the manila clock (slide Up) to see all (today and tomorrow also)
Thanks.
