I have the T-mobile USA HD2. How do I disable the calendar appointment from appearing on the startup lock screen? I use a password used to unlock.

Excellent question...I've been searching for that also.
Kill 2 birds with one stone!
You could install Co0kie's Home Tab 1.6.1 together with his CHTEditor which should allow for the configuration you require via the multitude of Appointment options.
It's probably a must have cab at any rate, and you'll be killing 2 birds with one stone!
You won't be dissappointed.
you can delete the appointment layer in the lock screen file.

Hi. I quite agree with your praising of CHT and CHTE, but I can't find the option to not show the next appointment on lock screen. Are you sure you don't mean the option in CHTE to hide appointments on the on home screen ("Show appointments")? Or am I looking in the wrong place?
Yep, i had thought the 'hide appointments' would do it for you.
It seems samsamuel post above might be what you are looking for.
OK. I guess cookies home tab does just what the name says, edit the tabs on home screen. Will see if I take a closer look on that editing tool for the lock screen. Just seems a little more work and risk of screwing things up. But then again it might be pretty simple once you go through it
its only a simple file that you are editing. if you can read xml/html them just open the file in notepad and erase everything between the appointment tags.
just keep a copy of thee original and if it doesn't work just change it back. no danger.
OK. I might give it a try. It sounds far fetched but do you have an opinion on weather it's something in this file that can be editet to get the notifications options to pause or dismiss (back) on lock screen. A bit more explanation her http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=660813

I would just like to start this thread to post some idea's I have that I think need to be included in a future release of the Settings app for S2U2.
1. Ability to choose any wallpaper on the device. (JPG/GIF) Not be just stuck to having to copy/paste into the GFX directory, as the filename of wallpaper.gif or wallpaper.jpg.
-FIXED: Use Slide2View posted here to change the wallpaper easily enough. I've known about the registry edit, but wanted a more streamlined solution. Guess this is it!
2. Have theme type files. Kinda like the tsk files for the today screen.
Few more I'll post later as I think of them.... Just post more ideas!!
theme
How bout if you can to themes like pocketcm does it and you can change themes like pocketcm.
lennysh ur suggestion works since forever, you have to edit the path in the resgistry. i dont remember where exactly, that way u can run the wallpapers from SD..

Hey lennysh, you should check out S2V (Slide2View) also by A_C. This is a cool picture viewer and one of the options is to make the currently viewed picture the wallpaper for S2U2!
I created a folder under My Pictures called Wallpapers. I put all my jpg and gifs (even animated gifs) in that folder. I can then browse those pics with S2V, and select one to be my wallpaper for S2U2. Very cool!
Hope that helps.
I think S2V should eventually be built into the S2U2 settings program.
An option I would like to see is password protected unlocking so that after you slide a dialpad shows up and you have to enter the password to unlock the phone.

there is an exclusion feature but it's accessed via a registry edit. go HKCU/software/A_C and there is a bunch of reg keys that start with "Exclusion1, Exclusion2, ....
Just add the name of the EXE that you want to exclude.
It would be nice if this was added to s2u2 settings via the gui but for now it works.
icon on screensaver?
First, Awesome app.
Now, when I launch S2U2 it works fantastic, but, there is a little icon that resembles a text document with a check on it and a number seven in a red circle just below it??? this is located just above the right corner of the unlock slide. Any thoughts?
just turn off task count in s2u2 settings
S2U2 and it's counter part S2V are both fabulous apps as far as single apps go. Yes S2U2 requires a regedit to use the directory of your choice unless you also install S2V..which begs the question...why?? I think they are both great apps but I am not sure I see the point of two separate apps when you need one to do something specific like choose the directory to use for pics.
So..what I would like to see is a merge of the two or make them two separate programs entirely. On that note, it would be nice to see a few of these great developers merge several of their apps into one nice compilation. There are obviously several "popular" apps that all perform entirely different functions. A compilation of these "popular" apps would make for a rather nice experience. And when I say compilation, I don't mean a .cab that includes these apps together, I mean one united program with all the functions streamlined and working together. Something like a mix of S2U2, Pictureflow, PocketCM and what ever all bundled seamlessly into ...say...a PointUI app or something along those lines.

it's somewhere in the s2u2 settings, set it to "off". otherwise, you may try to mark your "unread messages" in your inbox to "read messages", so the task count won't appear.. hope this helps.

I want S2U2 to be PointUI-ized.
It would be great if S2U2 could have an owner info on the start screen. Maybe an icon (similar to the weather icons) or as a small text below the slider.
Awesome apps, but the only problem faced by me in my iMate JAQ is changing the orientation of the setting screen. As directed I have changed to path clock to clockH, but it still doesn't work. Any help there?????????????
Slide2View is nice. I have both S2U2 0.98 and Slide2View in the same CAB file, with the additional clocks included. If anybody would like a copy, just let me know. I will also try and include some more stuff if I find some. It is set to use the HTC theme in S2U2.
Got it! Thanks for the info....I kinda hate to admit it but I did not know that the options was a scrollable page. After that I found it no problem. What a great app!!!
If not too much
s2u2 is a very great application.
if not too much..can he include a preview button in the next s2u2 setting? ok, maybe i'm too lazy too save and exit the setting before i can see the outcome of it. but it could be a nice add on in the next release.
thanks to A_C!
Hello Friends
One more time sorry for my english
My pourpose is the next one: When you close S2U2, it appears a window with message " S2U2 are closed", and a ok button to close it.
It's posible that the window disapear automatically after few seconds?.
Thanks.
The ability to either key in a simple pin or a strong alphanumeric password when you slide to unlock.
Invoking the WM6 one is messy/untidy.
Also create a Today plugin for S2U2 so you can invoke the lock directly off the Today screen.

Hi all.
I've been using the awesome today plugin Ultimate Launch lately, and I truly love it.
One thing that really irritates me is the fact that the program auto-minimizes the tabs almost after every time I turn off the screen. More precisely, the main tab still shows after I turn it on, but it's stuck, and I have to open the programs folder or start a program and then come back to the Today screen, and only then I see that all tabs are minimized.
Anyone knows how to disable this auto-minimize feature??
Thanks!
Until now I haven't even known that the option exists...Have you tried config\behaviour\always minimize height?

pick the tab that you want... and go to "settings" pick the page and hit "change" then go a tab over to "tab" and pick "open tab on startup"
there isnt a way to disable the auto hide feature... unless someone were to get the source code for this and pull it apart... i wish someone was allowed to do this... this app has such a great base to be THE ultimate launcher... i mean, it already lives up to its names in all aspects, speed, weight, stability, and customization... but it leaves some room for desire
btw... to anyone who reads this... im finally gonna upload my theme... its perfect to me in every way
i have two versions... full and lite... the lite one i just made today for my girl friend... shes making me let everyone figure out how to turn it into a lite version... but ill post screens so you can see... it should be up by tomorrow...

Already done that. This only lets you chose which tab is the default one when starting the plugin.

when you try to select more than one tab to as the default start up tab, it will warn you and tell you that another tab will not be default startup tab anymore.
It sounds to me, Kamal, that you are experiencing some sort of a bug, because i don't see that happening to me. Are you using some sort of a plugin for that tab? It might be conflicting or it is slow to load. Have you tried unchecking the "save memory" feature for that tab?
One thing I noticed that's also a related "bug" is that even though you check on a plugin to "activate" on startup and uncheck the save memory feature, some plugins don't load until when you hit that tab for the first time, but after that inital first time, it is loaded. Examples include rlToday and Pocket weather.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm not using any "save memory" feature on any tab I'm using. As you said, it might be a plugin i'm using with it.
Currently I'm using HTChome, Resco Today Plugin, Newsbreak today plugin and Today Agenda.
Guess I'll have to disable one by one to see which one is the culprit.
Any other ideas?

I think maybe everyone is misunderstanding your problem... Under UL Settings/Display Tab/ Fixed Plugin Height. Check this and then all the tabs will be the same size. I have HTC Home as one of my pluggins. You may want to try 170 pixels... That's what I use. Then there's no re-shuffling stuff on the screen when pluggins activate on UL.
Hopefully that will help you out...

make sure u have open tab on start up checked...
mine is always open via that option
I occasionaly click on the big digital clock on the HTC home by accident, while aiming to click on the e-mail or sms icon. Clicking on the clock opens the 'Clock & Alarms' screen, which I hardly ever use.
Is there a way to disable the opening of 'Clock & Alarms' when clicking on the clock?

Have never seen this pop up on the forums.. sorry.
I've seen once around here somewhere in the Kaiser section someone was able to change a short cut on the home screen (one of the mail buttons), but that was it. If someone could find the reg key for that or whatever controls it youc ould probably disable that clock/alarms link somehow, but i wouldnt know where to start

Im looking for the same thing!
Me too
That would be a FANTASTIC this to be able to fix <BUMP>
clicking on clock by accident

Ho yes
mee too ...
I've searched for quite a while to find a solution.
I want to "remap" the click to open galarm for example.
But for now, I think there is no solution.
You can download Manilla 2D Customizer and then disable the alarm status and digital clock in Home tab. There will be no interaction when you press the analog clock in the home screen.
Oops, sorry. Wrong post. Thought that this is related with ROMs with Manilla 2D.
Is it something we could arrange with the SSMaPa soft ?
This soft proposes to replace "Clock clic" and "Alarm clic".... I am sure there is something to do here..
Has anybody already tried ?
Don't think you can change that.
I believe the function is associated with the display and setting of time in windows and not changeable via the interface (Manila 2D for instance).

Yes SSMaPa will do this. You can map the clock to any .exe including GAlarm, GProfile or any other program you wish.
Still does not stop you from accidentally pressing it though.
point it to a phoney exe

But it disables the windows time feature even from system. We dont change the time everyday so its good enough.
Hi,
I've just been looking at the Touch HD and the Calendar on the home screen allows more than one entry. Unfortunately I'm not a dev so I was wondering if anyone has a ROM in progress with this feature. I know I'm not alone in thinking this a major loss in M2D. If it could include tasks it would be even better, I like the first screen I see to have all the info I need for that day. I know I can use SecondToday (and do) but that's an extra key press from seeing everything I need on screen 1.
Thanks
i have the elite 3 rom and i can see 2 entry on the home screen. i think that more is not possible with qvga...
have you tried changing the setting in today screen options/items... selecting calender and chinging the setting there?

Calender will only show the next, as in one, per default. You can change that in settings for the home screen
so please show us that we must change.

Hi
Are there any options to show more appointments on the lockscreen than ONE?
One event is a little bit less for a good overview.
Thanks for help.
Hi!
I don't know much about WM 6.5 default lock screen. But I use S2U2 and you can configure it to show several (I guess it's up to 7) appointments in its lock screen.
i mean the HTC Sence Lockscreen:

They know what you mean, which is why they suggested slide2unlock. It's a replacement for the WINDOWS lock screen (not HTC), that does what you ask.
Just to check whether anyone tested the Slide2Unlock application on WM.5 or HD2?
I try to do a search in this forum but it seems that only the old version is available and nobody is developing that application anymore.

Err, not true. The thread you want is in the Development & Hacking Forum. To download you need to access AC's website (the author) which is one of the download links within the relevant thread.

My friend told me that he saw some of the HTC Device using the WM6.5 have a better unlock screen than the HD2 or Leo which will show the Number of SMS and Missed Calls details on the lock screen instead of the numbering on the lock button.
Managed to find this program to replace the stock lock and unlock screen, you can display number of SMS, MMS, Emails or Missed Calls instead of the number beside the Lock Icon.

well, s2u2 is nice for XDA Herald, but not for the HD2.
The standard-lockscreen on the HD2 is much pretty nicer than the s2u2 for me.
are there no reg-hacks on xda-developers???
I totally agree with cms. The windows mobile lockscreen is excellent but it only shows one damn appointment! Surely this has got to be possible?

Yeah, I too like the standard lock screen, would be nice if it showed more appointments though.
Not keen on installing S2U2.
Would be amazing if someone modded the lock screen.
I installed S2U2 on my HD2 and agreed on most of the comments. The standard lock screen looks better but is too basic. The S2U2 has all the info I needed but I cannot get rid of the standard windows one so I ended up having 2 unlock screen now which is annoying. Does anyone know how to disable the standard one?

BSB Tweaks does that.
Or Settings>Security>block phone> untick block screen.
But in my opinion s2u2 is better, it shows the sms, mms, email, and tasks that original htc dont
regards
Just as a matter of interest, do you guys who say you don't like S2U2 know you can customise it by putting in your own wallpapers and/or gifs? You can even have the wallpaper change at regular intervals, giving you a fresh look whenever you wish.
So what you can do, if you wish, is to have a wallpaper that closely resembles the standard lock's wallpaper but sat in S2U2. You then get a better lock application with the look you are after.
WB
PS: If you knew all this but still like the standard item then ignore me.
I like the standard lock screen and would very much like more than 1 appt to be shown. I have tried S2u2 but i find it a bit bloated now, it is very capable and works but i just find it too big/bloated.
Is there a way we could tweak the MS lock screen?

Thanks. Interestingly I cannot find the block phone function under Security so I disable it through S2U2.
As it happens I was also fiddling with the latest version of S2U2 yesterday evening. Hadn't used it since I had my TP.
I'm running XannyTech's latest rom and when I use S2U2 as a replacement for the win6.5 lock, my Manila sliding tabs on the bottom slide behind the bottom bar where the softkeys are displayed on.
Anybody seen this before? I seem to remember that there was a little program to correct that but can't find it back.
Tried fiddling with S2U2' settings but disabling bottom and top bar did not help either.
if anybody knows how to correct that, would be great to hear.
ps: when uninstalling S2U2 and soft reset puts the manila sliding tabs back where they should be...

S2U2 is definitely the way to go if you want to configure the lockscreen to add more calendar entries. But I never got the hang of using the alert bubbles sitting in the bottom right corner of the screen as they were too hard to press with my thumb, one-handed.
I posted in the S2U2 thread about this but the suggestion there was to go back to the original WM lockscreen. Which I did.
I too prefer the standard Lock screen except would love it to show more Calendar items and perhaps Birthdays. The configure page is really limited but better this than someting too bloated for a lock screen.
