Hello everyone, this is what happens:
If I turn off the phone with the power manager widget on the screen when you turn the phone the widget is not finished loading I can only see a gray rectangle and the only way to get it working again is to do a hard reset.
Thank you all, you are the best, and please forgive my English.
A little more information
I forgot to tell you that I also tested with the widget controls and extended SwitchPro and same thing happens with Power Manager
I know what you mean. I have to press one of the power control buttons 2 or 3 times then swipe to another page and back again. Not ideal but worth it as I like the widget.

dude hard reset what are talking about just give ur phone sometime and swipe to other page.. now when u come back to home page things will be normal..
nothing hapens
When I swipe the screen to an other page an come back to the main screen nothing happens.
You could try deleting the widget from the page then re-adding it, however I agree with warriorvibhu; giving the phone some more time should sort it. I've had happen a few times but it's always appeared eventually.
Also about other widgets
Do you also happen with other widgets like or SwitchPro Extended Controls?

I have a MDA Vario. In SETTINGS --> TODAY --> ITEMS tab, what is "Today timeout", which is set at "4 hr" by default?? Does anyone know pls? I do not see any reference to it in the manual. Thx.

I think that's the amount of time after which it will return to the today screen if you left it with an app open and didn't touch it.
i tried it last night by leaving a game running, but it was still there when i got up the next day. it does seem to be the function u described, mate. Anyone else have any ideas pls?
A game will certainly work differently as it will request permanent focus and fullscreen. Just try with a standard app like calendar...
well, it was only a simple solitaire card game, but nonetheless I will try standard one like you suggested. But if this "timeout" function really is to return to TODAY screen, what is the real use of it? to timeout in 4 hours? and the longest possible time option is 12 hours.
Doesn't it simply stop refreshing the today screen (ie the clock and other values)?
It still refreshes the clock when you put it into sleep mode. However, after a number of hours it always takes some time for the clock to jump to the correct time.
It is the idle time before the Today screen is shown.
It's near useless, I almost always keep my today screen on anyway, because who wants to wait 4hours to see it
Use my TodayButton app if you want quick access to the Today screen...

personally, I always return to the TODAY screen anyway by shutting down applications after i'm done with them. I just thought this "timeout" thing was a sophisticated and useful function, but it turns out to be quite the opposite. But i will never understand why anyone want to design it to timeout in HOURS and not in minutes.
I'm the same, I shut down apps and always leave it on the Today screen!

Doesn't the Red button do that anyway?
Nah, red button minimises apps to leave them running in the background (I think it actually just switches to the today screen). Some don't mind this, but for me, if I want the app open, I'll open it, and when I want it closed, I want it closed.
VJOkButt allows you to use the red button to minimse or close, and also properly close the phone to save around 3mb memory. But it does this sympathetically with the phone, so if you're in the phone, it hangs up, but otherwise it's a minimiser.

Morale of the story.... no one knows it. I always keep it disabled. So no big deal.
Had PDF softcopy of Reference Manual of my O2AL, and searched with no hint at all. Lets be it.....
I thought...
Guys,
I just stumbled upon this thread and thought it might be a good idea to get educated. I never knew it.
But this is what I thought - I thought it is the time slot to show appointments.
Means, if you chose a slot of 4 hours, and there are continuous meetings scheduled in your calender (and display of them enabled), then it would act like a rolling 4 hours window (read as slot).
Does this make sense? I never had so many appointmens, but always thought this was the use of it.
Comments please.
Hi so this is what frequently happens, I lose the top bar on the screen (start icons etc) which needs a restart to get back, sometimes the screen will not go black when the power putton is pressed(for locking), holding the end call button to lock the phone dosent work at all even after restart(not that i use it), also the email icons where you flick down and up to get a preview often dosent work and the email opens instead(happend from the start).
So what i would like to know is what can i do about this I assume there is a new rom out there that is really nice and stable but which do you suggest? I would like one which replaces the alarm setting in the default rom as that is so annoying. Also I use the youtube program all the time and I would like to still have the zoom bar in opera. your advice is really appreciated.
Im getting some of these problems, sorry dont know what to sugest! but my end key has never locked my phone it ends data conection ok !!??
Paul.
Have you tried a hard reset?
There are many great roms each Rom has a thread you can check them out to see what they have and what they can do it depends on your preferences not others
I have had my phone for about a month now, and use the weather function a lot by pressing just under the clock on the Home screen.
Today, out of the blue, I press it, and it appears to register (ie: the screen depresses) however nothing happens at all.
This happens regardless od whether I am connected to the internet or not.
The only thing I have installed is Resco Explorer, and made only a few registry tweaks, which I am sure were performed correctly.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
try turning the tab off and then on again.
Thanks for the reply, but I'm a little new to all of this.
What do you mean by "turning the tab off"?
when you go to the weather tab, you can update the weather of your location?
I've seen this a few times, the weather area turns off white when you tap but doesn't open the weather tab.
simple soft reset cures it.
No soft reset didn't fix it.....but....
Yesterday I clicked Menu, Personalize Home Screen Tabs.
I UNchecked "weather" because I thought what's the point of having a tab for it when I usually just tap under the clock.
I re-checked it, and now it works! I'm so sorry to have wasted your time! But truly appreciate your efforts in helping me. Thanks guys.
My problem is different, but the question is the same.
i'm in holland and since halfway last week my location in the weather tab failed to update, but i did get weather information... until 2 days later. now the whole tab is unable to update its information.
the weather tab has been disabled and reenabled with a sense restart in between. yesterday i had rebooted the entire phone. both events did not help.
i tried enabling wifi for the weather update, but no luck there as well.
also, i'm not the only one. i have a friend with a newer rom (1 month old phone) who has the same problem.
any ideas?
oh and ps: the reloading animation starts up and loads for a while. then stops suddenly without notification of failure or success.
pps: found a more on-topic thread for my problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589132
Hello, I have a HTC HD2 on Vodafone and have just downloaded and successfully installed the latest versions of cookies home tab and its editor.
When you see the countles videos people have uploaded online of people with their htcs, with the awesome little customised, cookies home tab screen, everything works perfectly.
My home screen by default is black and pretty blank, except it has a joint weather and time widget at the top of the screen. Pressing menu, edit home layout, i assumed would be the thing to do. When i do this, a screen just like i want appears, with the clasic big clock..and the quicklinks..and i can move/add/change everything as i want. I press done and this appears to be my new home screen.
However, whenever i attempt to scroll or move anything up and down on the screen, without reacting, it will just snap back to the original black screen i spoke about with the smaller widget at the top.
This means i cannot customise anything, for example the handy expansion of quicklinks..etc, as when i do, everything will just snap back to its default.
Like i said there are hundreds of videos online about this program but none running you from installation to customisation, so i dont know what to do!
Any help would be greatly appreciated to get me started with this program as its getting on my nerves...
Thanks a lot!
Just got my Note 3.
Somehow the Home screen moved from position 4 to position 3.
How can I get it back in 4?
Moving up from S II and also have Note 8 but this seems more complicated.
Thanks
Soft menu key, edit page
Thanks that worked but now another problem.
Removed the weather time thing and I got a "No cards" banner.
What does that mean?
How do I get rid of it?
Tried to move the Google Now widget to the home screen, got this framework with dots that I couldn't do anything with and now I have 2 No Cards littering my home screen.
Any way to make the icons 5 across instead of 4?
Thanks in advance.

Delete the widget, then choose the correct size you need/require from widget menu and readd to where you want them.
I was able to remove the No Cards and put in Google now.
But I still can't move any of my app icons to the home page. It looks like there is plenty of room but it snaps them back to the previous page.
Also S-Planner: I tried to install (month view) it to the screen next to the home screen, it defaulted to the last screen and every time I try and move it, it returns to last screen.
I even deleted it and tried again, nothing different.

It won't let you move them to the home page? strange, make sure you are dragging them in fully as sometimes it'll snap them back if you don't.
With the S-Planner widget, again you'll have to resize it for it to sit on the screen you desire.
