App similar to Calengoo on the iphone - Desire Themes and Apps

I am looking for a calendar/planner that allows me to view on a week by week basis. One that will allow me to see the week and all the appointments for the week.
If you dont know what I mean, then think about a filofax page that has the week displyed and the commtiments written in.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

dunno if i get it..but if you change the calendar(stock htc calendar) to week view and choose agenda from menu, it will show almost this...

It almost does what I need, but I am unable to see the detail [words] in the week view, I would arther be able to see the week graphically with each appointment readable, rather than swap between two different views.
Of course when I swap from week view to agenda and back again, it defaults to month view and I have to go back into settings to get back to week view.
Not ideal, however I am grateful for the suggestion.

Hi,
I'm using Jorte (free app), and it's very good. All details are readable and has nice widgets.
It syncs with Google calendar also.
Give it a try

I use Pure calendar and it sorts my home screen out into a monthly diary and the best thing is you can choose the size

remove the spaces and thats what i used

Calendar Issues

I recently switched from XDAII to a TYTN.
Until now, no problems exept the calendar.
If I have like three appointments the next day, the device only shows me a maximum of two on the start screen, where on my XDAII the list was unlimited . Pretty annoying cause I'm used to see all of them when I switch my XDAII on and have an immediate overview.
Is it possible to change a setting so the calendar goes directly to the month lay out? Now I always have to toggle up via day, week, month or go via menu, view...
Also, if there are two appointments on the start screen and I tap on them, the device will always go to the "oldest" appointment.
Any settings I could change?
Thanks
No reply because it's so obviously simple or nobody knows..?
Anyone?
Come on guys, give me a tip here.
I did the normal stuff like going to start>settings>today>Items>calendar but then the "options" button is not available so I can't activate the "show all apointments".
What is a recently good and stable program to add programs/shortcuts on the today screen?
I looked into Claunch but that site is so old...
Pocket Breeze

I gave up on the OS Calendar today screen - no matter what options I selected, it would only display 1 day at a time... so I use PocketBreeze now... it very configurable, looks good, works well and seems compatible to WM6!

Not sure about the calendar issues.
Claunch may be old but it's a good one.
I use Wisbar Advance used in conjunction with Wisbar Advance Desktop. Can also be used for those cool customisations as well. Also permits multiple desktops so you can spread out your icons and plugins over several pages to save clutter. each desktop can be customised differently.

Calendar bug in touch HD ?

I've got an appointment set up in Outlook on the PC for 7pm-11:30pm this evening.
When I synchronised, the home screen on the HD says "Tomorrow 19:00 - 23:30" instead of "Today"
If I tap the appointment on the home screen to enter the calendar program, it correctly shows under today's date, with nothing tomorrow.
Possible bug in TouchFlo ?
Anyone else seen this ?
Or am I being really dumb and missing something obvious ?
EDIT : After a soft reset, the word "tomorrow" vanishes. So it looks like TouchFlo failed to update the home screen properly until the device was reset.
my bug is different
I have a different bug, no mine doesnt seem to do what you say... as far as I can see...
My bug is that when you set in options to always display day, week or month view and you quit calendar and start it again, bang it goes back to Agenda view (which is rubbish)... is there a fix to get it to stay in what its asked to stay in.

I'm seeing the same thing. When selecting the calendar or appointment from touchflo it always takes you to the agenda view as opposed to the default view you select in the calendar.

I was having the same issue.
I needed to reset my device (Pressing power button until it gives the pop up to turn off) and once it came back now it is working fine..
I can set it which way I want now and the setting is sticking...
...and more:
I got all of them... calender always opening in agenda view, a TOMORROW instead of a TODAY until reset, AND another one: IF you activate lets say THREE alarms, only the first one shows up on the today screen, no matter what time it is... So if it the first alarm is over, my Touch ELF's display would change to show to the next open one, but the HD does NOT. Ridiculous...
I see 4 every day all the call.!?Sync by activesync.How to delette this sync?
I too am bothered with this problem.
I want my calendar view set to Month view. So I've choosen Month view form the options and everything seems OK. However, everytime I choose calendar from the home screen it briefly starts in Month view, and then opens the agenda view.
I've tried everything I could find on the net to solve this problem, including:
- Adjusting the calendar to month view and afterwards soft-resetting my HD. Still the same problem.
- Adding -vm to the shortcut in the calendar shortcuts in the Windows directory and in the Windows/Startup directory. this opens the calendar in month view, but from the Home screen still no success.
- Searching the registry for relevant settings, but i'm not knowledgeable enough yet to find the correct ones.
By the way, if I set my calendar view to Day or Week, the same type of problem occurs.
Since I really don't like the Agenda view this really starts to annoy me.
Any other thoughts out there on something I could try?

i have the same problem! does anyone know abetter more fingerfriendly calendar program with tf3d integration?
Deixi
Strange stuff...
I don't have the problem everybody describes, but instead next day appointments show with a DS_TOMORROW: prefix instead of Tomorrow: The font is big and it occupies quite a lot of space, looks buggy and pretty annoying.
With regard to a finger friendly calendar - I used Agenda One, but it doesn't work from TF3D Home screen by default - the link needs to be edited, and I can't find the thread where the way to do it was described.
With regard to opening the calendar in the "right" view, it should be relatively easy to fix.
Searching the registry won't help because the links in RF3D seem to be hardcoded - this is the bad news.
The good news is that there's a Manila Patcher which allows to change things. If you know the arguments (somebody mentioned -vm), you can change those.
With regard to today's events prefixed with "Tomorrow", it seems that this is indeed a Manila bug, it just doesn't refresh data. You don't have to reset the device, disabling and enabling Manila is enough. This is not a workaround of course, because resetting is actualy easier, just to reiterate that TF3D is at fault.
Not 100% sure, but if I'm using the device around midnight then TF3D doesn't roll the appointments. If I'm not then it does.
Could be a complete red-herring though. . .
Does HTC have any bug tracking system available for the public, at least for submitting bugs?
Thanks for the tip on SSMaPa vangrieg!
Installed it, added "-vm" in the arguments box belonging to calendar.exe, and after some messages I am now enjoying my calendar in glorious Month view!
And before I forget, the other possible arguments are: -vd for Day view, -vw for Week view, -vy for Year view and of course -va for the dreaded Agenda view
By the way, this is what HTC Support mailed me after just one day's wait:
In order to solve your problem, you will need to hardreset your device. All data and settings will be deleted, so please back-up all your data first. Remove your SIM and memory card and go to Start, Settings, System, Clear Storage and follow the on-screen instructions.

Might try that some day, but for now this seems to be werking fine!

I too have this problem, and the thing at fault here is apparently the Touch Flo 3D interface. Just as described in the original post, the calendar app itself displays everything correctly, but on the Today Screen in Touch Flo, "tomorrow" entries do not change over to "today entries" when the date changes, i.e. it fails to update.
A soft reset does indeed correct the problem, but it is also sorted out if you change the calendar content in some way. This morning, for instance, I made a simple edit (changed the location variable) in one of the entries, and PRESTO! - the entries on the Today screen were properly presented.
Now, I'm not a programmer, but it seems to me that the Today screen doesn't recognise a date change as something that should trigger an update. Shouldn't it be able to force this somehow?
Speaking about Calendars, does anyone know how to change the text color of the topic while on the TFLO3D home screen.
It is a grey color and it makes it impossible to read.
Hi there, I have the same bug with Touch Flo, but no need to reset the phone. Just go in Start / Settings / Today, untick Touch Flo, do OK, this closes the Touch Flo applications. Then rego there to tick Touch Flo, this runs Touch Flo with the right information.
HTC advised me to hard-reset the device. The problem continues.
Soft resetting touch-flo does seem to cure the problem of the immediate appointment, but it is not a permanent fix.

I have another bug in the calendar of the Touch HD.
When I create an all-day event with a reminder, it just doesn't remind me : no ring, no vibe, just the screen that is switched on, and the pop-up appear. But it works fine with a regular appointment. Do you have the same bug ?
I don't know about you guys but i wanted to test this out so i entered some false appointments for 3 days in a row and i'm on the 2nd day and it has worked wonderfully.
It doesn't say 'today' but the top rows are showing today and has 'tomorrow' for the the appointment tomorrow.
I waited till midnight and it did roll over.
Or is this problem only via syncing from Outlook or something?
I have entered a few bogus meetings for the next day on the phone itself to test out your theory and on midnight the Tomorrow tag simply stayed there.
So once again I have no idea what triggers the bug.

Calendar for Today?

Does anyone know of a simple Calendar plug-in for Today screen which will just show me the Month view? Preferably free... I have used Quick Cal but its not free. Also should be able to accommodated the HTC Today plug-in. Wish that had a calendar view in a tab!
Well I dont know quick cal, but maybe Calendar+ is something for you.
http://www.mohairsofa.com/Default.aspx/document/10
rl-today is another option. basic skins usually have the monthly view. though is much more (and more complex) than a today plug.in
Thanks I downloaded the rlCalendar. Really good since you can customize it so easily. Only if it had a calendar "scroll" option where one could see future months. But will do for the moment.
I have not tested rl calendar but in rl today it is really easy to add several months at a time. to have a button to go forward and backwards showing months you will need some more advanced stuff with rl-today and mortscript.

calendar not opening in the correct view

No matter what I setting I use under what type of calendar view to show me when the calendar is first opened, it always shows the agenda view.
The weird thing is that at first it does open to whatever the setting is (for example week or month), and then in a split second it switches to agenda view. I have to manually tap until the desire view appears.
The setting still remains on "week" but the program still shows the agenda.
I also have this issue.
My device is the HTC Touch HD (by O2 Germany).
But if you start the calendar from the start menu, it will display correctly the selected view.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Same issue here - most annoying!
guys
Are you taping on an event on the home screen (TFlo3d) ? (as in how are you starting it )

yes, there is an upcoming event. Nevertheless, it shouldn't open the agenda view by default.
Hmm, after starting this thread, now I am wondering if that is just the way it works. I hadn't realized that opening the calendar from the Start menu does open it in the correct/desired view.
Do you guys remember if from the home screen it always opened to the agenda? Or did it used to open to the desired view?
I'm doubtful now - can't remember if maybe it always worked this way.
Hi,
I think it's supposed to work this way. When you open it from the Today Screen it always uses this view, hence the name: Today Screen

Rolf
Well there is a solution for Pocket informant
check out wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Useful_Software
SSMaPa:
Now I am sure that the default Calandera has options as well but not sure what they are not werr to find them.
Calendar
Definitely:
When opening from Today, it always opens Agenda view.
When opening from Start -> Programs -> Calendar opens as ordered in Tools -> Options.
Doesn't like it, let's hope for a Registry hack.
Rgds,
This annoyed me too... It does indeed seem to be an issue with Touch Flo 3d, and the calendar link on the Today screen being set to always start the calendar in day view.
So, supposed this is a Touch Flo issue rather than a Windows Mobile issue, I made a little google search and came up with the following from htcwiki.com:
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/Start+Calendar+in+Month+View
I haven't tried it myself yet (past my bedtime as it is ), but will probably do so tomorrow. It seems like a simple enough operation. The instructions are for setting the calendar to month view as default, but I guess changing the parameter from "vm" to "vw" would set it to week mode. That seems logical, right?
Use the search funtionality.
You need the file ssmapa.exe
With that you can modify the manile.exe entry which is overruling the wm setting.
search and you will find.
or when you need someone else to do it for you.... link

I tried the ssmapa. It did not link correctly so I did a full restore. However, in my home page, the calendar now only shows a link "Calendar" but does not show the calendar items. It used to show my two or three of my schedules in the original touch flow 3D. I even did a hard reset but it did not help. Can someone advise how i can get it back?
Thanks, appreciate any help.
Use MortScript for starting Pocket Informant in Calendar View:
runwait ("\Program files\WebIs\PocketInformant\PITab.exe", "5")
sleep (2000)
runwait ("\Program files\WebIs\PocketInformant\PITab.exe", "5")
(Perhaps you have to modify the path....)

How to display next appointments ?

Hello,
Because, there is no such fonction in standard, I'm searching for an easy-to-use solution for displaying next appointments
For exemple, combining today agenda + second today is not an easy-to-use solution.
Manilla 3 came with a new calendar but without week view.
Is there really no solution to display next appointment dates on Manila home screen for exemple ? How guys you handle that ?
I dont know what you mean because appointments I type into my calendar are shown on the home screen one day before the certain date. I think you have to use a calendar that uses the outlook-database to save appointments.
Exact, but for a professional use, one day before the certain date is a too short term view..
I wish I could scroll the view until a week for exemple..
Why do you see using SecondToday as a hard option?
I use this with Spb Diary, and it is both easy to set up, and a doddle to use. It displays forthcoming events, bithdays etc in a clear, easy-to read list for the following 31 days.
I have it assigned to a long keypress on the left softkey, but it could just as easily be assigned to the calendar button

I tested 2nd today + Today agenda few month ago on my Polaris but I was not really conviced. I will try with spb regardless but I will stay frustrated that such a simple fonction as displaying upcoming appointments was so badly implemented..

Wellcome to the club, then. Most who use the HD as a professional tool complain of the same thing.
However, SecondToday does work well, and is only a button-press away. I have set up Spb shell to display just the Diary page as a full-page view, so can see loads of appointments.
I also have high hopes for the new Spb Shell v3 which is due to be released fairly soon, and might use that instead of TF3D.
that's the reason why I went back to the default Windows Mobile Today screen with SBP Diary and Calendar+
