Hi,
I am still a bit confused about whether to get the Xperia X1 or the Touch HD. One concern is the possibility to show appointments on a today screen without getting rid of the user interface (i.e., I do not want to shut down or remove TouchFLO3D).
What I need is a possibility to show appointments not only for today, but for a user defined timeframe - like 1 week or a couple of days - in advance. In fact, right now I use a combination of the HTC homescreen with TodayAgenda 1.5 on my WM6 device. I like to switch on the device and see the actual time/date and all upcoming appointments without having to switch to a today screen, i.e. immediately. However, I am looking for a solution to integrate this into TouchFLO. I know that it is possible to have the "normal" today screen on HTC TouchFLO3D devices and use TodayAgenda.
Is this possible with TouchFLO3D on the Touch HD? (I expect that with such a screen size it should be possible to show many appointments without scrolling ...)

Yeah man.. I would like to know if that is possible as wel.. on my diamond with SkippyCentraal ROM(NLD)
I did some tweaking with the software from here, but did not find a sollution yet on how to get more than 1 appointment showing on the today screen with Touchflow on..
Wow, thats sad ... if we cannot show appointments in TouchFlo3D
I just cannot believe this kind of limitation ...
I own Kaiser and I have never use TouchFlo ...
I also used TodayAgenda 1.5 and loved it on my previous phone. It was the bast app ever (for me) to be able to see all my appointments for next 30 days as soon as I switch the phone on. Shame we can't combine this on touchflo 3d as I dont want to disable it as it is what makes it different to other win mo devices.
Come on community. Let's crack it!
personally i dont like touch3d at all, it's slow, i prefer to use ultimate launch to have 2 or 3 today screen, and u can scroll each one using ur finger for example: i have 3 screens, one for today, with time and day, one for appointment(using agenda) , with any number of appointments u want to display in the screen!!!, one for applications icons( iphone style arrangement).
hope this may help!

If you tweak it (and maybe change to another ROM), it will work perfect for 95% (speed is good)
But the not showing of appointments (only 1) is sad... and there has to be some of u super tweaking guys who can fix this
X1 Panel allow u to customize the # of appointment showing on the panel
not sure if Touch 3D on HD is able to do so.
Well, maybe someone who has already got the HD can tell us ... this is really crucial to me. In the Raphael forum someone suggested to de-install TouchFlo3D ... that is exactly what I do NOT want to do, because I like TouchFlo3D otherwise.
In fact, HD screen should be big enough to show everything AND the upcoming appointments for the next 9 days or so ... Isn't there someone to figure out?
With Xperia X1 you can easily switch to a today screen that shows these appointments, you can even install TodayAgenda on the original today screen, without the need of removing the panel functionality.
There is an application called SecondToday that adds a 2nd today screen and is reported to work well with Touch Diamond. I wonder if this would be a suitable solution for Touch HD as well ...???

I think this has been requested from the beginning of touchflo3d. I cant belive that HTC can fix this. I use the calendar every day and think its one of the major apps in WM. But HTC keep ignoring the calendar, there isnt even a tab for the calendar in touchflo3d.
If anyone know a nice integrated calendarsolution in tochflo3d I am very intrested.
Is this TouchFlo 3D cannot be disabled? Or replaced?
Hi folks
I think its about time for my first post in this forum.
Since HTC catched my attention with the HTC Touch Diamond I often visited this forum. Now I finally decided to purchase a HTC device too. I will go, like many of you, for the HTC Touch HD.
But enough of OT chat...!
As MEE I am also looking for a solution to display more appointments on the homesreen or in a new TouchFlow tab (if passoble).

No, unfortunately not. The Touch HD manual sais (on p. 67): One all-day appointment and up to two timed
appointments can be displayed. Touch this area to create, edit or view an
appointment. (See “Calendar” in Chapter 12 for details.)
This is not at all sufficient!
Anyway, this might be of interest for us (in German, though): Howto: Add a normal Today screen on TouchFlo3D
Someone here to try this on Touch HD?

This is interesting ! Please if anyone can test this and probably creates an english how to

A Today Screen clone would be one option to gain access to today info, see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907
But with our large HD screen space more flexible plugin spaces, for example x number of appointments, would be prefered.

Definitely - I agree. But is it possible to add plugins into TouchFlo3D? X1's panels are rather independent, so you can add or delete them like you want to. In TouchFlo3D, the question is whether you are bound to what you have - or whether you are flexible as with the X1. I read in a X1 thread that they even think to add TouchFlo3d as a panel!
I hope we (or HTC: do you hear us???) finds a solution without the need of porting X1's OS to the Touch HD.

They already did it:

Hope the opposite is possible too (Panels on the Touch HD)

I would prefer a solution without the panels. The issue (showing appointments) is rather simple compared to installing the whole panel app to Touch HD. The latter might be a good project, but generally I hope we find a solution with less impact on the phone (I will use a company device, and I know that our IT guys will attack me if I start installing different ROM's or lots of programs that are not supported).

As a suggestion, is there any way to interface Spb into TF3D? Spb shows LOTS of forthcoming appointments, and its Today screen is so programmable to user requirements.
Would there be any practical way to use this on the Touch HD? (Even Xperia has this now!!!)
I plan to turn off TF3D (is it possible with Touch HD???)
And use something else, probably SpB Mobile Shell .... ???
Unless, yes, if we can enable "Today" application in TF3D !
I have a touch hd, you can disable the TF3D under the "today" preferences.
Has anyone heard of this device? I have tried to see if there was any information on XDA about it but turned up nothing.
Any idea what kind of device it will be?
Never heard of it
Touch hd mini
I also never heared!!
Mini USB
htc touch hd mini usb!!!!
Yeah I had not heard of it but wasn't sure if something had been leaked about it, I work at o2 and saw it on one of the systems so was wondering if anyone knew anything about it
If you really work in O2 perhaps you will be delivering the news
The only place I can find info on this handset unfortunately is the up and coming device section that I have access to on the o2 intranet, this only gives me a launch date, which certainly for the HD2 slipped multiple times
I guess we don't have that long to wait, I'll check tomorrow what the launch date is. We don't use manufacturer stock codes so that will be of no use to anyone trying to find out more info on it either
surely that would be confidential info DJ_Evil are you sure you should be spilling the beans?
All I could find was this
Intriguing
HTC HD Mini is coming in Barcelona!
You guys have seen the Device already.
But under the codename... What codename I won't tell!

Photon baby
Well for once I actually knew something before the internet did from the intranet on the inside
Yep, it's the Photon aka. HD Mini - http://pockethacks.com/htc-photon-to-be-the-htc-hd-mini/
Definately the Photon....

I mean, seriously....let's take the best most distinctive feature of the HD2 ( the huge sharp wvga screen ) and get rid of it and call it the all new HD mini ........really ? It better be cheap....
If this does not have some form of a Snapdragon CPU then its not really an HD Mini. Does it at least have a captive screen or is it resistive?
Hi!
Just two questions after I have seen several photos of the new HD Mini (for example on neowin.net):
1. Is it possible to get exactly this colorful wallpaper as background image for the HD2 somewhere?
2. Does the HD Mini still have a page with DirectLinks/QuickLinks?
I mean the HD2 has 9 DirectLinks on its HomeScreen (by default, I know, and by applying some Mods it can be extended to even 75 DirectLinks) when sliding the finger from the bottom up. But I was not able to see such DirectLinks for applications or contacts on any of the images of the HD Mini.
Thanks in advance for your help!

At last !
I was awaiting a phone with all the latests features but not looking like a brick. I'm sure there is a market for those like me who are little users of Internet on the phone but still want to keep the ability to surf if needed plus other things. For us, the screen size is not that important and a small, easy to carry phone is way more attractive.
Is this an AMOLED screen like the HD2 or is it something else? For some reason I think this would have been better if it was a 3.3in or 3.5in screen.
Ok so this is my first time using android os and i have to say its awesome. I about had it with windows. My only problem is the Droid x seems more like a pda then a phone. With my HTC Touch Pro 2 i could just start dialing the number on the keypad and it would narrow down my search instantly. With the Droid im stuck to using favorites or scrolling through the list.
Is this a motoblur thing and im just used to the awesomeness of HTC?
Try dialer one from the market.

I think this is actually the Android standard (unfortunately). The EVO has this type of dial-to-narrow-down-names functionality, but I think that's something HTC added for Sense.
The HTC Android phones with Sense also have this feature. Motorola does not.
You really start to miss sense and HTC when you see all the little things that you don't have on the droid.

This is one of the big reasons I stayed with WinMo for so long. This was default behavior for WinMo since Smartphone 2002 (my first).
I actually left WinMo when the 1st Droid came out, but took it back within my 30 days to get a TouchPro2. Despite a number of replacement dialers in the marketplace, I just couldn't replicate it effectively. I also had issues with Android 2.0 and Exchange, so it just wasn't a clean fit.
I've now dropped my TP2 for the Droid X and still kind of miss this functionality. Not enough to give up the phone this time, but I might investigate some dialers again.

They each have improvements they've added. Unfortunately can only get one or the other.
For instance, the DX has the iphone-style text selection (standard Android and HTC text manipulation sucks).
The DX's dialer has done minor pluses, like easier/quicker access to the contacts list. But the HTC dialer is nicer. Not sure I'd say that about Sense overall.

Its true it depends on what you are used to, but one things for sure if you are used to Sense or came from HTC winmo phone you won't like the Droid as much because of the missing functionality.
Hi all,
I had previously an iphone 3GS that i lost, and plan to buy the HTC desire HD. But i just tried the G Nexus One, and find the copy/paste not convenient to see the least, and sometimes even impossible.
I saw that new HTC sense had a similar text selection magnifier as the iPhone, and was wondering if the HTC Desire HD ROM new HTC sense had this feature only in HTC apps or if if it was usable accross all apps (like any text app got from some market)
Especially that i do not see any trackpad on the Desire HD, and what i saw on Nexus One is that text selection is hidden by the finger (ohh big finger hiding such tiny characters!)
Can someone put a video of Desire HD ROM it to see text selection magnifier and copy/paste in action accross other downloaded apps than the stock ones ?
Badly wanted this Desire HD, but might reconsider the excellent tactile reactions of iphone screen and copy/paste feature and buy an iphone4 then
GET DHD
it is a beast phone
yea... still waiting ...
I'll make one now
Dear All,
kindly help me on my concern. I friend of mine just offered me a G2 but i dont like the homescreen of all. Would there be no way to get HTC sense on a later stage or will this option not be allowed on the device. Is there another option to enhance the home screen (i like black but looking for something fancy like the upcaoming SBP mobile shell 5.0...). Another issue understand that there is no radio too, so could i download a radio cab or will this not work or and at least could i download an HTC Desire z rom at a later stage....
How is the keyboard, can i write mail quickly...
you can download fancy widget if u want the weather clock from htc sense
psh whaaaaat!!! do u want my address so u can mail it to me? htc sense is bloat city but to each his own. you can always get the g2's sister: htc desire z or download panda home, they have a htc sense theme thats very theme-y to the touch and look. seriously send that g2 my way.

Yes,the answer is positive.
You can get a ROM with HTCSense.com once it's fully rooted anf THAT won't be far from now.(At least I think so)
