I am running veg's wm6 rom with the modded six tab plug-in although these questions refer to the home plug-in regardless of version:
1. clock displays am/pm - I want 24 hour display if possible. phone settings are set to 24hour, is it a reg hack for the plug-in?
2. when adding contacts/favorite people to the plug-in how can I specify which number for a contact to use? it seems to default to the first entry for a contact which usually happens to be the mobile number when what I want to add is the office number. (may be a general wm6 question as well)
Additional question - How did I enable my ringtones as system notifications? (I can use them as ringtones, but they don't show as system notifications.)
thanks for your input - I have spent a couple of hours searching before I posted, but being at work 16 hours a day kind of limits the time I can spend online at any one time (perils of being tech support for a school district).
some answers
answer to question 1
go to settings, system, regional settings and set it there - duh!
another answer
ringtones sometimes are "hidden" by default
make sure your ringtone files are not hidden - I believe notification sounds need to be in wave format, but I haven't tested that yet
You should find much of what you want on this post on the WM 6 area: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316107. There are numerous discussions on this plug in there and if you cannot find what you want I suspect you'll attract help there with a post.
Good Luck
thanks
thanks tony!
posted there as well
If I find an answer I will post it here
Next question.. how do I get pictures displayed for the favorite people instead of the first name?

Nope, tytn has a samsung cpu. XCPUScalar is only valid for xscale processors.
There is not yet a working overclocking solution for the TyTN.

Yes, but it doesn't work on the Hermes, you can overclock and underclock it, but it will hardreset and become unstable after a while. I tried with both production and preproduction (300Mhz samsung) versions of the Hermes with the same results.
wtf...."my tytn is slowing down" solution "overclock it", who brought the crack today?
First thing would be to see how much crap you have in start up, and how much junk you have on your today screen constantly refreshing, I have 30 applications installed on my tytn, and NO slowdown.
I should have ignored this thread, but working in the pc tech help for many years...I never would have imagined to tell someone to OC their pc if it was slow, same applies to this device, this isn't the Omap processor, as you all know...the tytn is actually fairly quick, if you don't muck it all up with memory resident poop.
Also, why anyone would bother with an app to change the softbuttons is beyond me, it just takes a couple minutes with a registry editor, which equals less junk installed on your tytn.
edit: sorry I was a bit surly this morning, and I couldn't stfu...it just looks to me that vid200 is a bit of a novice from his initial question (sorry if I am wrong, no offence meant vid200) by the nature of it and that the answer is easily found on google and the wiki.
I can understand pointing someone out the app to easily change the softkeys..it saves trying to teach someone about registry editing, but to tell that same person to OC their ppc when they haven't even really dug into manually tweaking it is just nutty, you have to crawl before you can walk.
vid200, if you don't have it, I suggest you give memmaid a try, and see what is slowin you down, also I don't know if the softbutton app you have permits it, but if you manually change the softkeys with a registry editor, you can link them to .cpl files, for example the taskman.cpl file found on this forum, and easily bring up the oem taskmanager, or any other control panel apps...battery..memory..there is a .zip floating around with most all the .cpl files in it, and when you stick with the oem monitors it helps with speed and battery life just less polling and memory usage, also just throwin the tip out there, some people might not know they can link to cpl's.
the only things that have slowed down my tytn are the wisbar advance (all of em) and Pocket PC PhoneAlarm,
I don't recommend both of them as they are resource hogs and have memory leaks,
aside from those two I have 30 so apllications and tons of today plugins and my device is fast and very responsive.
Hello all,
Need your help for the following:
I am trying to use left sofkey to lock pda, like we use on a nokia phone (left key + * to lock phone).
I have used SoftkeyAppletEx (Thanks Dotfred!), but i still could not find the correct block keys file to link to softkey.
For sure this is not impossible, as we can put that option on today screen.
Anyone could help to identify that file???
“Also, why anyone would bother with an app to change the softbuttons is beyond me, it just takes a couple minutes with a registry editor, which equals less junk installed on your tytn.
edit: sorry I was a bit surly this morning, and I couldn't stfu...it just looks to me that vid200 is a bit of a novice from his initial question (sorry if I am wrong, no offence meant vid200) by the nature of it and that the answer is easily found on google and the wiki.”
No offence taken, and yes I am a novice and I never messed up with registry before. Belive me I have searched and read forums and google, but softkey change just did not work on my device since all the other registry changes I made did work.. So I asked for help.
I will start the oem taskmanager and see if there is a problem.
10x for the advice
P.S.ne more question: where and how can I change the tone for messages, I can't find the folder to copy the ring tone in to.

You're not offensed, but I am. This so called 'ChaoticDruid' guy has no respect for the work made by others. I surely won't use 'Druid', because he has no wisdom being so pretentious, and I wouldn't use Chaotic but more 'Causing chaos'...
Surely, he's so clever that he advices a novice to play with the registry, this is very wise indeed. Furthermore, I didn't know that a Control Panel Applet could cause the slow down of a machine, but yes he has so many years of experience that he doesn't even know that. And I would add that not everybody wants to take a couple of minutes (I wish it was true if you don't know what you're looking for) to dig in the registry, if it can be done in two seconds.

Ok
I understand your point of view,
But this is a forum so I suggest we keep discussing things not arguing.
Well, so I read on other topics that SPB pocket plus is a slow down application and I have to admit I am using it so I am thinking of changing it maybe with some other programs.
Any suggestions, I would like to make my today screen like this:
Connection manager
GPRS counter,
Whether report
Messages (lsit all unread emails and tekst messages)
Tasks
Calendar
And Icons for the applications in tray bar.
I would also like to put new message (and have a choice: text, email or MMS) to the left soft key, but I do not know how.
BUT since I am a newbie I can only admire your today screens and hope I will find out somewhere how you did it.
I would like to ask how to change the ring for incoming message,
I would like to ask how to put icons in the bottom right corner in a tray bar where already the icon for emoze push mail is.
1) And for all of you out there thanks for the help you give me
2) I have the device for 4 days and my girlfriend says it is all I have been doing for the past 4 days so don’t even thing I’m not spending hours and reading forums and searching.

PHM Tray Launcher allows you to add a tray icon in the taskbar.
I also use SPB Pocket Plus, so for another "today manager" ask to others, this one is enough for me.
Use Tweaks2k2.Net
There is a specific tweak to override the sofkeys' setings.
You can replace key caption or programs, for instance you can remove "Calendar" and set "Agenda" and so on for Contacts
Change your Left/Right Today softkeys
Here is the registry tweak you requested -
================================================
Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = Calendar (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx
=================================================
Actually, you can select any name or app on the Left /Right softkey. Test the length of the word (make sure it fits all on the bar). You may get the application ".exe" from /windows folder of your device.
I would advise though not to fiddle on the right key as that is a bit complicated.
For example, mine I used on the Left softkey the name "Phone Pad" and used "VTKey.exe" (without the quotes) instead of Calendar and Calendar.exe. It worked perfectly well on my Imate Jasjar with no problem at all on portrait/landscape orientation. Hoped it does, too, on your device.
Cheers !!!
Look for SoftKeyAppletEx to remap your softkeys ..
I know you can set the sound to AUTOMATIC so its on vibrate for appointments in the calendar...but I can only seem to find that setting by going to the SETTINGS tab on the TF3D screen. I was trying to cleanup the tabs I don't use often (using the TF3D Advance Config program), and I think I can do away with the SETTINGS tab completely if I can find another way to set the sounds to AUTOMATIC. I have searched almost all of the icons in the START / SETTINGS area, but all I can find there are ways to change the ringer or change the type from ring to silent etc. Is there a way to set the ring type to AUTOMATIC without going through the TF3D settings tab?
Thanks!

few things i wanted to ask related to android OS and specially features which i or most others would like in the CyanogenMod for the samsung galaxy s2
- is it possible to disable confirmations dialog boxes when u delete all call log or any such delete activity?
- is it possible to have a delete all or edit button on the call log page itself to quickly delete entries in less nubmer of clicks rather than a few more using long press or using the menu button?
- is it possible to hide the video call green button when u dont use it at all?
- is it possible to reduce size or totally hide the contact photo under contacts so more contacts r visible at a time?
- is it possible to hide or remove the search box on contact list?
- is it possible to hide or remove photo box in SMS app
things i would love to see and pay for in the next CyanogenMod for the samsung galaxy s2
- more touch responsive similar to iphone
- remove ascending ringtone
- BLN support
- disable BL on back and menu button while playing games etc
- possibility to rotate screen to left or right coz i noticed angry birds ets by default rotate to left and not to right
- CRT screen effect
- possibility to change lock and unlock screen music
- many other things that r not coming to my mind currently, mayb others can post and get a list ready for what every1 would like to see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1148
i already checked there, most answers not there and if questions r there then not answered
Who cares? This is the wrong forum for your post.
I know inside the call log you can hit menu and then choose which entries you want to delete, can't get much faster than that.
All your other queries cannot be done with standard apps unless you edit their .apks. You're best bet would be to try some alternate contact/dialer/messaging apps, and god knows there's loads of them in the market.
As for your wishes about CyanogenMod, you really should've taken it to the proper place, which would be inside the CyanogenMod thread.
Last I checked, this is not a development thread. Thread closed. Quit posting in the wrong section.
I am starting this thread to stop high jacking the original [Manila][12-Nov-2010] Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0.0 - Final Released thread.
I have been using CHT for some time through NRG's ROMs.
I began making widgets like the Reminder widget [CHTwidget]CHTw Reminder and helping Poyensa with his Note widget [CHTwidget]CHTw Notes.
I also have created some toggles and worked on some alternate toggle methods like data without WMLongLife.
Automatic to Normal and Vibrate Toggles
Voice Command Toggle
MortScripts to toggle settings
Also, some other links.
Switches for Email Widget to provide functions in lock screen like switching accounts, deleting, etc.
I started seeing things I would like different in the basic code of CHT.
This is the beginning of my journey into this work.
CHT_DataLoaders
Original CHT_DataLoaders with fix for CHT restart
Appointment Widget with Tasks included
CHT Lockscreen
CHT StartUp and CHT Core
Tasks Widget
Email Widget and associated widget lua tweak
Scaled Basic Widgets (the CHT_Widgets.lua)
Free Links unlock control (CHT_FreeLinks.lua)
Some thank yous:
poyensa -- for getting me started with his Notes widget and then all his help through my learning curve
rat_2665 -- for his help and his weather clock for code to study
MichelDiamond -- for his pointers
Many others that have chimed in and of course the testers out there too.
CHT_DataLoaders.lua
Some time ago I noticed something in task widget:
If I have tasks that are due two weeks and later from now. They show up with red text. As the days go by and a task that shows red becomes less than two weeks away the text becomes gray.
Others have the same problem:
In the task widget, I want to see only the list of upcoming task for 7 days so I set the "Tasks range" in CHTeditor to 7 but the task that due more than 7 days still show in red text.
And I noticed that if I set "start date", the task will not show in list of task widget.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I began the process of editing CHT_DataLoaders.lua which is the 7B09A9E6_manila file after it is "cooked" in the kitchen:
My interpretation of the original code:
Even if you choose Sort by Start Date it still only includes items that have Due dates within the date range you pick, so items with start dates that do not have due dates in the range do not show up. It appears the intent is to show you tasks that are due within or before the range you select. Your choice of sort by due date or start date only sorts items due on the same date.
What I wanted is items without start dates to be included in the list no matter what their due date is.
In my code I have tried to get it to show start dates in the range instead.
In early development the red still showed up if I sorted by Start Date, but I think this is from the code using Due Date to set color and not sort date or something else.
To no longer have red Tasks listed beyond the Tasks Range, the list now only shows the tasks in the range and does not show any more than that. For example if you set the range to 2 days and you only have one task between now and then you will only see one task in the list.
I have a lot of tasks that do not have start dates so my list became long if I sorted by start date.
I decided to not include items that do not have start dates in the sort by start date and that made more sense.
Later, I changed to have tasks without start dates get sorted by their due date.
Now you should get a list of only items due within the range or before no matter when their start date is.
I find if I show both dates it "looks" better to sort by start date (my new standard setting).
One thing I have noticed if I choose not to show both dates and sort by start date it shows "..." for tasks without start dates and does not show the due date.
Later I figured out a way to do the sort differently.
Start Date:
Now if you select sort by start date you get all tasks that start before or during the task range.
This will include any tasks without start dates at the end of the list, but excludes those due beyond the task range.
This keeps the list smaller. Tasks that start on the same date are sub-sorted by their due date.
Due Date:
If you select sort by due date you get all tasks that are due before or during the task range.
This will include any tasks without due dates.
Tasks that are due on the same date are sub-sorted by their start date.
One thing you have to do is set task max count to 99 for it to work properly. Never mind, I updated the code to force it to be 99 no matter what you set it to.

Appointment Widget with Tasks included
I have always wished there was a widget to show appointments and tasks together:
I began the process of editing Co0kieAppointments.lua which is the 5146EC01_manila file after it is "cooked" in the kitchen. It took updates to the CHT_DataLoaders.lua and the Co0kieAppointments.lua to get these features:
My goal is appointments and tasks in one widget that are sorted and mixed together so you may see a task then a couple appointments and then some more tasks based on their date.
I still want to be able tap a task or an appointment to open the task/appointment or task/appointment program depending on your settings.
I also wanted the long press on task features.
I think it would be nice to add features like color.
Tasks that are active and appointments due today will be the active color
Tasks overdue and appointments that are active will be the overdue color.
I set it to sort and show both tasks and appointments within each day having its tasks and then its appointments.
If you tap the date you get a pop up to select refresh, calendar, appointments or tasks so you can create new tasks or appointments. The "New appointment" version pops up a choice for refresh, calendar, appointments or tasks. I could not find and "[[IDS_New]]" to use instead of the "[[IDS_NEW_ENTRY_HEADER]]" so it says "New Appointment".
You can long press a task and get the pop up to "delete" or "complete" it.
I have done my best to get it to refresh on its own more quickly to catch task changes, etc. I think I can force a full update every minute, but do not know if this will eat battery life. It seems like it takes less than 10 seconds to update the list.
I can add a task by selecting the date and then tasks which opens sensetask in a new task. I save it and quit sensetask. In less than 10 seconds the new task shows up. I can long press a task and select complete and it changes color immediately. If I press delete it is gone in less than 10 seconds.
I sometimes get a hiccup where there is strange things in the list, but they clear up after a couple seconds.
There were some glitches to work through:
You must set the max task count to 99.
It appears the program that gathers the task data uses this limit for how many to gather.
This is different than the max count for appointments.
With appointments you get them all and filter them and then you limit the filtered list to the max count.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I also changed multi-day all-day appointments to show up a little differently if you have do not show multi-day appointments selected.
It sorts them by their start date so it will show up sooner in the list than the due date.
Just added the completed color to the tasks for completed tasks.
Appointments due today now have "Today:" before the time because it seemed to look strange to me without it.
Tasks have the word "Tasks|" at the beginning to show them up as a task better. Tasks without a start date show their due date instead.
My preferred user experience is to set the following in CHTEditor widget settings for appointments and tasks:
Enable scrolling on
Appointment range of 7 days
Max appointments of 20
open in editor is on
Don't repeat multi-day is on
Show appointments
I hide call history since I use the free link for it
I hide voicemail since I use the free link for it
Task range of 7 days
Maximum task count is set to 99
Show complete is on
Show both dates is on
Long press pop up is on (brings up the complete or delete menu)
Sort by start date (this will show all tasks that start in the task day range and if it does not have a start date it still shows if its due date is in the task day range too; all tasks that start or are due before today also show up.)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I made some more tweaks to the files. I have tasks without start and due dates added to the list with today's date, but highlighted as overdue. I changed the way tasks look for different due times like today, tomorrow, etc. I got rid of "Due" to get as few English only text values as possible.
I noticed if you set it to "Hide" in the original code you would not see any appointments at all. I changed it so "Hide" only hides the icon, "Show" always shows the icon and "Auto" only shows the icon if you happen to have no appointments. This is similar to how show-hide-auto works for call history and voice mail.
Added menu to Date and New Appointment items so when you press them a menu shows letting you pick:
1) Refresh - instead of using the separate free link
2) Calendar - to go to the calendar tab
3) Appointments- to go to the appointment program
4) New Appointment - to create a new appointment
5) Tasks - to go to the task program
6) New Task - to create a new task
Updated 12/29/2011
Reduced some redundant code and took out some code that does not seem to have an effect.
Updated 12/28/2011
Help force a refresh when you choose refresh.
Updated 12/27/2011
Main thing is fixing the restart of CHT when you have no tasks.
One thing I have noticed in the code is the way complete and delete is set up you can only do one at a time and have to wait for the refresh before you can do another one. One thing I did to avoid confusion is change text to "Complete. . ." or "Delete. . ." before running the code that changes the task to completed or deleted. When it disappears you know you can complete or delete another one.
Updated 12/08/2011
Added the ability for Voicemail and missed calls to show when you first start the widget like after a restart or reset.
Worked on the refresh code, etc.
While doing this I worked on the code for task refresh especially after selecting "complete" or "delete" in the popup menu.
I added a feature of the task text changes to "Deleting. . ." so you know it has started to delete the task.
I discovered you cannot select another task to delete or complete while the code is refreshing the data of the previous delete or complete.
Maybe I'll look into this later.
Updated 11/23/2011
Tweaked so if a multiday appointment starts today or tomorrow it shows "Today" or "Tomorrow" instead of the date.
Tweaked so if a multiday appointment ends today or tomorrow it shows "Today" or "Tomorrow" instead of the date.
If they start before today they show the date it started, but skips the start time since it is past already.
Tweaked the font scale adjustments to work better.
Updated 11/15/2011
Added time to multiday appointments that are not all day appointments.
Added code to adjust font so all the appointment time text should show.
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
You can combine this tweak with the CHT_DataLoader tweak.
CHT Lockscreen
I have been using CHT Lockscreen for a while now and selected the choice for lock after a call. It seems it locks after all calls instead of locking only if it was locked before the call. Is this how it works for you all?
I have been looking in the CHT_Lockscreen.lua file, but I have not figured out how lockscreen is called when I end a phone call. I can clearly see code for when we choose lock after unplugging, but not for the phone calls. I also searched all lua files with notepad++, but had no luck either.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for where the lock gets called after a phone call?
I would like to try to get it to lock after a call only if it was locked before the call. There appears to be a registry value associated with it:
CHTI.State.WasLockedWhileIncomingCall
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It is 0 when not locked and when locked. It becomes 1 when a call comes in, but does not if the phone is not locked before a call. This is as expected, but it still locks after a call even if it is not locked before the call.
I used notepad++ to search for WasLockedWhileIncomingCall in all files of the lua code for CHT and did not find it.
---------------------------------------------------------
I have created my own WasLockedWhileIncomingCall code for CHT_Lockscreen.lua which is 4956014B_manila when cooked:
I could not figure out the setting of lock after call, so if you have it on and your phone works like mine it will always lock after a call.
With my change you turn this setting off and your phone will only lock after a call if it was locked before the call. Set it back on and it will lock after all calls.
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
CHT_StartUp and CHT_Core
CHT_StartUp
I have noticed CHT restarts Sense once in a while. If my phone is locked with CHT it still restarts, but does not lock afterward.
This tweak checks to see if CHT lockscreen was running and after CHT restarts Sense it will lock the phone again.
The file is 55933D15_manila
****************************************
CHT_Core
I had a problem with Longpress popup menus not working. I discovered it did not work if I set Animation level to None and worked if I set it to the other levels.
I tweaked CHT_Core.lua to make it work. The file is 750CA94B_manila
Updated 12/29/2011
Tweaked the check limits portion to see if the widgets are on the same page and not just the same level. This allows the appointment widget on the second page to be at the top of the page and not cause the clock at the top of my first page to hide.
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
Tasks Widget
I also made some changes to the Co0kieTasks.lua which is the 3778A5E5_manila file after it is "cooked" in the kitchen:
If the task only has one date it only shows one instead of the "..."
It color codes the items still.
Added menu to Date and New Task items so when you press them a menu shows letting you pick:
1) Update Tasks - instead of using the separate free link
2) Calendar - to go to the calendar tab
3) Tasks - to go to the task program
4) New Task - to create a new task
Updated 12/27/2011
Main thing is fixing the restart of CHT when you have no tasks.
One thing I have noticed in the code is the way complete and delete is set up you can only do one at a time and have to wait for the refresh before you can do another one. One thing I did to avoid confusion is change text to "Complete. . ." or "Delete. . ." before running the code that changes the task to completed or deleted. When it disappears you know you can complete or delete another one.
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
You can combine this tweak with the CHT_DataLoader tweak.
Email Widget
I have noticed when I go to my Email widget it shows the last email I was looking at. If I have gotten a new email the count x of y is blank.
I decided to figure out a tweak to get the widget to always go to the first email in the list.
I ended up having to tweak Co0kieEmail.lua file to get it to work when going from one hometab page to the other and the CHT_Widgets.lua file to get it to work when going from other tabs to the home tab. It also works on my lockscreen.
I have figured out when you have animation instead of simple page changes you will not get a double flip of the envelope.
Updated 11/15/2011
Improved the jump to the first email so you do not get the double flip in the fancier page switch settings.
Added a delay to not remove the notification until the email page actually shows when you switch to the email widget after there has been a new email notification.
Updated 11/10/2011
Added a menu item to jump to the first email so if you have flipped through a lot of messages you can jump back to the first message.
Be sure to make a safe copy of your \windows\29C5E347_manila and \windows\4B558519_manila files
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
Removed outdated Widgets.lua file. See below.
Scaled Basic Widgets
This updated version includes the tweak for having email go to the first item when you switch to home tab from other tabs from post #8 above.
Scaled Default Weather Clock:
It also has a change that allows the default clock with weather to be scaled. Now I can fit my weather clock and reminder widget side-by-side.
Added the following scaled widgets. I included the ability to go larger than default size too.
Appointments (works for AppTask version too)
Tasks
Notification bar
Email
SMS

Updated 12/29/2011
Tweaked the scaling portion based on the core.lua edits to stop hiding the clock on a different page. This tweak fixed the "x" position to be sure it shows as being on the correct page. It affects most of the tweaks and not just the appointments widget.
CHT_Widgets.lua file or \windows\4B558519_manila file
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.
CHT_FreeLinks
I found that if I accidentally touched a free link while trying to slide to another page on the lock screen it would unlock so... I added tweaks to only unlock if I slid to the free link slide to unlock distance, but not more than twice that distance. That way if I slide more than that it changes pages instead.
For all updated files I strongly suggest you copy your originals from the \windows folder as a back up. Then copy these to the \windows folder. Then restart Sense.

Thank you
Have you tried the combined appointments and task widget tweak?
I could really use some feedback on how it works for others.
Hi Rory,
Thank you very much for your tweaks !
Would it be possible to share the lua of your "Appointment Widget with Tasks included" tweak please ?
Greetings,
Laurent

Here it is. Do you have any problems with the long press on a task bringing up the menu for complete/delete and it disappearing before you can select one?

Thank you !
Yes I do have exactly the same problem with your tweaked widget.
Note that I already had the problem before with a modified App and Task widget of my own, but I did not investigate the cause.
oh I just realised that the zip only contains the lua for the appointment widget, the other _manila from your tweaked plugin must be the dataloader isn it ? (I don t have my kitchen with me ). Is it possible to have that lua as well ?
Thanks

Sorry, forgot that one. Here it is.
I think when I have a little time I am going to try creating an App-Task widget from scratch so it does not use the existing lua files.
I may try another hard reset and only install the dataloader and the lockscreen tweaks to see if they work and do not cause the long press problem. If they do not then I may install my Reminder widget to check it too. Then I will try creating the new widget.
I have confirmed going back to all the original lua files does not "fix" the problem. I do not know how the break" stays permanent.

Maybe one of our CHT settings (reg) is causing that problem ? It might simply be a CHT bug because if you restore all original CHT _manila files I can see no reason why the longpress bug continues.
As I said above I was already facing that bug with my CHT but did not investigate too much. Maybe it has something to do with the SenseTasks refresh process.
Cheers
The strange thing is I feel it was working for task widget, Notes widget, Reminder widget and maybe even Appointments with Tasks. Then I had to do a hard reset and installed everything. That is when I noticed the long press pop up issue. I even did a re-install of the ROM with Task-29 first. I just did not think to test the functions between the ROM flash and the installs. I am not able to be without my phone data so it will be after the weekend before I can do the flash. BTW the ROM I am using has CHT cooked in it.
Has anyone installed CHT 2.0 into a Co0kie ROM?

Yes I had to do it some time and works fine
Hello fellow Xiaomi users,
I got my Redmi 5 Plus a few days ago, updated it only via the system update (no custom twerks yet).
Currently I have the stock Android 7.1.2 N2G47H and the stock MIUI 9.6.2.0 NEGMIFD.
I have a couple of questions about the phone and I would really appreciate your help:
1) Will this phone get an official Oreo update? I've read that there should be one, but couldn't find any official date mentioned.
2) Stock launcher - I noticed that I couldn't remove app icons from the stock launcher. Is there a way to do that, and customize it all together?
3) Nova launcher - Since I couldn't remove unneeded app icons from the stock launcher, I installed Nova. An issue I find with it though, is that I no longer get skype notification sound - only vibration. Also sometimes messenger fails to make a sound as well, but that happens fairly rare. Any idea on a fix for this? Or maybe recommend a better launcher, that works with the phone?
4)Viber - I am using dual SIMs. One personal, and one for work. I activated only my work viber, but as soon as I started using it, it transferred all my contacts in it. So now my personal and work contacts got mixed. Wouldn't be an issue, If I didn't use viber on my work PC, and I would rather my personal chats to not be there. Any suggestion on how to separate my contacts? Anyone else had this issue?
5) Alarm sound - I am not sure if this happened after I switched to Nova, but my alarm sound is really low. The phones speakers are quite good, but when it comes to the alarm its quite low. I can barely hear it and wake up
6) Freezing - Sometimes when I type in let's say messenger, the phone freezes for some reason, until I type the next letter. For example if I try to type the word "submarine", I can type "subma" but it will freeze on "subm", and when I type the next letter (r) it will spit out both of the last written letters "submar" and then continue to work normally. What can cause those freezes?
I would really love to hear your opinion on these points.
Thanks in advance guys
1) For sure, in the main miui site is indicated and if is there is a closed beta available then we can expect an official version.
2) Remove the icons from stock launcher will mean uninstall them, you can only move them to the next display and maybe group them.
3) Check if all permissions are granted for this launcher including device control and accesibility, also enable in Nova persistent notifications. I use stock launcher, I put my preferred apps in main desktop, the others just moved them to the right and using the app "My Drawer" from developer Ofir Miron, it´s the only that I found that keeps the same icon from any theme that I pick, the others look very ugly.
I´m rarely use the other points so I don´t know

Thank you for the reply, I guess I will wait for the update for now, and experiment some more with Nova.
One more thing that came to mind - any way to use the proximity sensor to stop the phone for ringing or to answer calls? I had this options on other android phones - when the phone rings, and you bring your phone close to something (like your year) it picks up. Or when you flip it face down it stops the ringing. Any of these options available?? Can't find them so far.

Thank you, found it. Now let's hope that someone else can shed some light on the other topics as well. ^^
