Dear All,
I have a request,
Can we add the Task tab to the Manila Screen? Just like adding the Call history?
It would be great if this could happen!
Thanks
yes, i agree.. id like to see my tasks right as i open my phone.
It´s an very often discussed point here. Try to search for it.
So much is told: Use SecondToday an TodayAgenda. That works.

The try searching answer is pointless and seems to be the immediate answer of sooooo many on this forum. It's bad enough that people don't read the forum rules regarding searching first but then it seems like the rules have some added portion that I haven't read that say - answer every single post with "try searching".
The answer of using Second Today is an adequate one but not a good one. The question, had it been read carefully, asks is there a way to add something to Manilla?
That is a good question and hopefully will have an answer at some point. This lack of trully being able to customize probably turns many away from Manilla

The "Try Searching" answer is not always the best way to cover such questions but we should encourage new friends to look at the work thats already been done - that way we all learn..... so sometimes - try searching for "a clue" would be a good answer if you know where the answer is but want to encourage the use of the "search"

I have to dissagree on this point too! Manilla is Highly customisable - in looks any way! See the following thread for just some examples of what you can customise if you put some effort in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421317
As for the Task Tab..... This will most definately be possible - the following is already available (IF you Search, lol) and I think this may be what wizain was looking for, but if its not quite what you need or meant then with more code you should be able to make changes or "Search" some more......!

PS The language will change to whatever your ROM language is for this particular Tab - no extra coding required......
Thanks Blob8me!
I've been looking for this for some time.
The problem with the xda-dev forums is that there is so much info that I often have a problem to find the right post in a thread of 64 pages etc.
But I still find it strange of HTC not to include such a basic piece of PIM.
Adding tabs to Manila, or customizing existing tabs' contents?
Hi,
I tried several Manila ROMS (NATF v3 and v4, Hyperdragon III) but couldn't get used to not being able to customize the screens as I like (say like using SPB Shell and customizing the contents of any given tab).
Further, I have several apps that use a Today plugin (eg Newsbreak, PocketWeather), and I'd like to find a way to incorporate these into the Home page, or to create a Today Plugins tab, or just create a separate tab for each.
The weather tab, for example, is not practical for me, as I live in one city, work in another city, and constantly follow the weather in cities where I (or my wife) are about to travel. So having a single city weather page is of no use to me, and this is why I need to have the PocketWeather tab available.
Another thing would be able to have a separate tab for each application group (eg Navigation, Multimedia, Office...), just like creating folders that are shown in Start-Programs.
I've spent a couple of hours (actually longer) searching for a solution. Many posts direct to the Manila customizer thread, but even there I could not find anything (not to say that even the author warns that the tool is "dangerous").
I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thank you.

Yeah, but your application has stopped development, as you wrote.
This along with the separated SMS and Email tabs (I just want icons on my home panel with notification! I don't need swipe/click/swipe sliding fancy animations on separate tabs just to see my last couple of messages) are the 2 main reasons I can't use TF3D/Sense full time.
Anyone want to help pick this up with me?

They can't copyright the setting, as far as I know. They can only copyright the utility they made for setting these choices. But it is still not a nice game they play....
By the way Gullum, what does your cab do, install a utility or change the registry key?

Sure! Everybody may find something without spilling them out.
But the thing is someone, in this case Gullum, had shed the light for a long while with no one challenged he's discovery.
More imprtantly, CAN ANY ONE TELL how long Gullum has found the secrecy before releasing it?? According to what you said, Gullum might had digged it out even long before V1's release.....The only thing counts in this case, I suggest, is WHO POST HIS/HER FINDINGS EARLIER, especially on this forum!
I post my idea not for myself, a rookie to PPC anyway, but for everyone sharing their sweeties from the hardworks!

And what happened to mUn or Faria? There was time that all roms where based on their work and very little of developers remebered to give them some credit.
As for me, I'm still thankful to you for that buttonfree activation, and you cant say I didnt name you in the rom credits

Shadow|Line Twitter!
Hey guys! This is my first rom and it's mainly because I didn't really like the dictatorship of the rom cooking world so I decided to make my own It's named after Shadowline because he's awesome and made the skin + tsk. Also because I "borrowed" his big blue buttons below BUT, let me say this. I will try to help you with your issues as best I can. Please try to stay away from PM's >.> I get enough as is about every other little thing. I'd rather you post in this thread and then Direct message me on twitter/aim/yahoo/google talk (my screenname is in my profile). This rom will be based on MOST user feedback. Since this is going to be my rom, skinning will be by my preference. If you don't like it, you can definitely change it Apps will be mostly by user feedback. I will add them by my preference and if it seems that there is a certain one that people really want, then I'd be willing to add it in. That said, I still don't want spam and others spamming you want this app or that app. If you want to make a post, make sure it's constructive/useful and/or contributes to the thread in some way If it turns out this rom has bugs (BUGS? What bugs?), then please post a screenshot to the error or what you refer to. It's hard to tell otherwise. And if you post a fix, please be inclined to message me somehow. (Twitter/AIM/Yahoo/Google Talk/PM/E-Mail). Although It'll take me a while to release updates because I'll be testing the rom extensively myself (might even have a beta team if this gets beyond 10 downloads lol). I mean sure the rom is not out yet But I thought I'd let you guys know that you'll get what you're expecting, if I receive what I'm expecting (which is useful feedback, suggestions, and motivational comments!).
As always for any rom, I am not responsible for whatever may happen to your fuze/raphael!
Direct
Megaupload
Please be sure to read the 4th post in this thread as it tells of what bugs/annoyances are in the rom!

Well well, looks like Kraize is finally taking the plunge into ROM cooking. It looks great, can't wait to flash this sucka!
Be warned though It's not organized at all yet! All lnks are in the program menu and it's very plain. I'll be getting to that as soon it's working.
EDIT: I'll need a few people to test the exchange server setup and other things that have to do with the internet. I don't have a data plan and I don't use internet sharing, e-mail, exchange server, etc.
Runtime error is pissing me off. No matter what I do, I still get it. If any one experienced can help, please do. [Link]

Actually iAgenda is another finger friendly program for tasks (and appointments), http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515903.
Otherwise I think your program looks great! It's a little slow loading, but that's because you use c# or vb.net I assume? I had the same problem when I did my hgToday/hgAgenda.
Nice app! I´m waiting for the next versions.
If you need help with translation in german, you can write an pm to me
Please use Outlook Tasks for sync with desktop !!!
Excellent app, anyway few things I would like to see in nect version:
1. Why need to double chack what I want to to delete, when I press delete and I mark which tasks to delete and after I press confurm it asks me Do I really want to delete them, no need for that
2. I cant change priority...
3. For every task it says Normal due to 1/1/01??
4. No start menu icon
Good idea!
But the only thing I can create with a new Task is the name of the task.
No set of due to and prioritiy.

2. Editting of tasks is not suppored yet - in to-do list
3. it says 1/1/01 for tasks which dont have set the due date. In next version I will skip this information in such tasks.
4. Can you post screen and which device/WinMo do you use please? As you see on my screenshots I have Start menu icon there (tested in emulator + WVGA and VGA WM6 device)

Very nice App !!!
Hi,
I could assist in translate into German. Also I would be intrested in cooking in your app into ym ROM for the next release. I think I have to ask you before. Just have a look at the desired ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588631) and please PM me about translation assistance (because it has to be german gui by default for this ROM) and especially the allowness for integrating your app...
Keep up the good work.
Greetz Tom
I may offer German Translation...
Maybe this app could be similar to upcoming GekoTask?
http://www.gekonewmobile.com/shop/gekotask
And loading faster than SpoonDo?
http://mobilespoon.blogspot.com/2008/09/spoondo-free-tasks-manager-for-windows.html
Would be great!
This looks promising.
I'll be sure to try it out on my Touch and report back.

This is a homescreen/lockscreen app I made, based off of the Windows Phone 7 Series Metro UI.
So far, you can:
Set Phone, Text, Outlook, and People to a certain app
See upcoming appointments on lock screen
See information on live tiles
Launch programs
etc.
Instructions
1) Download installer at bottom of post.
2) Copy to device and install
3) Run wp7s.exe from start menu
4) To access settings, double tap on right side of screen
5) To lock, tap the top bar (near clock)
Known issues
* Animations are sluggish at times.
* Problems with kinetic scrolling
* Unlock can unlock in any direction, not just up.
* ...need more feedback
Requirements
VGA or WVGA device, QVGA is possible but looks bad.
Recommended: Snapdragon processor or at least a very new phone.
Live tiles
The live tiles seen are web pages that auto-update with JavaScript.
In the video/screenshot, one is the current weather in New York,
the second one is the current trending Twitter topics,
and the last two are random changing numbers.
To make your own, just design a HTML or PHP file, use JavaScript to auto refresh, upload it somewhere, and set it to one in the settings!
Also, here are some examples I've made:
Random Number (for testing) - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/random.php
Top 4 trending topics - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/twitter.php
Weather - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/weather.php?zipcode=[ZIPCODE]
Upcoming features
More customization (background, etc)
Smoother animations/scrolling
Ability to rearrange icons
Social networking integration
Hubs

Enjoy, and give me feedback.
very interesting... would love to see this develop further...
Wow! Very cool, definitly a little buggy, but I'm still really impressed. I didn't imagine someone coming out with a WP7 shell this soon, I will be following this thread for sure.
Wow that looks great! I'll be testing this soon.
nice work man! this is interesting! looking forward to more functions
Yess!
I'm so glad you've already put out the alpha download, unlike Maxci with MaxSense. This is great work and is very much appreciated.
Awesome Development
The Windows 7 Series Phone use Segoe UI font and it would be nice to see it ported as well.
Great development.
this sounds good
i have tried in QVGA (HTC ARTEMIS) its look good
nice try buddy
Nice to see an early port.
However, I think this really highlights the a major issue with the current WinMo 6. That the graphics are on the whole incompetent - poor support for transparency, and horrible font smoothing.
it look pretty well, but it doesn't work on my lg-gm750, wen i execute the exe file says: there is a problem, please reboot your device or se more detaills
niceeeeeeeeeee
wow wow amazing
On my german HD2 there is an FileNotFoundException...
And it does the shortcut in \Windows\Start Menu\Program Files
but in german ROM it has to be in \Windows\Startmenü\Programme
couldnt you use Environment-Variables?
It looks really cool and i would be happy if i can test it on my hd2!
Aah!
I was hoping this would be created by someone...
And now you did!
Wonderfull!
I'll test it out on my phone!
Thx!
After testing: Looks good on 320x240.
Indeed a bit slow and choppy sliding, but it assume you're working on that
You're doing great!

The cab installer I used for this is crap, next build I'll use the default one in Visual Studio, which I believe uses environment variables.
The reason why it says FileNotFoundException is probably due to it looking in \Program Files\wp7s\config.txt, but it may be something else (since it should just ignore it if there's no config and just use default settings).
I'll look into it, and hopefully I'll have a smoother, better running build out later today or tomorrow.
EDIT: Found the problem, it's trying to pull images from \My Documents\My Pictures, which is obviously only good for English devices. I'll give an option to change it and have it patched in the next build.
Thanks

Exactly my point, I'm still trying to get around this, but it'll be some time.
Again, thanks for the feedback all, and look forward to a new build soon.
thanks for your work.
i can't get it to work on my hd2 (german).
already edited all the paths to match the german version.
still no success. "wp7s.exe DirectoryNotFoundException".
what directory is the exe searching for??

The problem is that it is looking for \My Documents\My Pictures\.
Try creating that path and placing a few images in there, or wait for the next build (should be soon).
Will someone plz teach me how to "hardcode" hubs into my wallpaper using Photoshop?
The amount of resources I could save by not having to use 6x6 Minimalistic Text widgets is just sooo enticing. However, I haven't the slightest clue about how to make sure my tiles/hubs are positioned exactly right given the fact I adjust how many columns & rows my homescreen has.
Anyone who could help me out with a nice, detailed tutorial would get several thanks on my part. In addition to maybe a small ($5~) paypal donation of the guide is quality and/or could be posted here for others to use.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Sorry for the "plz" in the title. It was required to shorten the amount of characters so it could all fit.

But how can you be so sure? The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that you cannot know a particle's location and movement at the same time. Therefore, if you observe this thread here, that means you cannot know the exactly where this thread is heading so therefore you cannot predict whether this thread will arrive in Q&A or not. However, if you were to not observe where this thread was, then you might conclude that it was in Q&A or that it at least should be. However, that leads us to the problem of Schrodinger's cat which states that when an object has two possible states, if it is not observed, it is in both states at once. Therefore, if you were only to observe this thread's existence, you would not be able to obtain the information regarding the location of the thread so, therefore, it would be in Q&A and in Themes and Apps at the same time. However, the scientific law of Parsimony, also known as Occam's razor, states that the simplest solution is most likely the truth. Therefore, applying Occam's razor to the dilemma of where this thread occurs, it can be concluded that this thread, is, in fact, in the Q&A section.

Hardcode buttons w/ photoshop?
I am working on doing this in my free time so its not finished. Firstly, I am using Multi Picture Live wall paper, so I would make 5 pictures to be backgrounds, one for each screen. Set those as your backgrounds first, to offset any placement issues with your rom/wallpaper orientation. Take screenshots of each, no icons or widgets, just empty screen. This is so you can line up your final work onto the original picture to get the exact placement. Next, use Simple Text to create boxes.. fill the color, take more screen shots, use layers in Photoshop to select where the button will be and edit these boxes as you see fit.. finally once you create the image that will be the background, use Simple Text to create transparent "buttons" or widgets and place them over the buttons that are in the background image. I am using ADW so the placement is pretty easy with the stretch icon/force fit/overlap options.
Hope this helps, its a good question and opens up a lot more options for personalizing your device. I have gone as far as to incorporate some of my widgets into the background setting the widget's transparency 100% knowing ahead of time what will be on top of an area and work with that in Photoshop.
Best of luck!

I'm not sure if this is what you're interested in, but I used ssLauncher which sort of has the hub ability built in. check it out and if you're interested, I'd be happy to share my steps.

Cross-checking with my "Games with Gamepad Support" thread reveals that I like lots of helpful, detailed organization. Perhaps a little too much. lol
