Any app that can show the day of the week in the Today screen? Day and date would be just about enough for me.
Calender + might be a good app for you. It shows you several days and it's free. http://www.freewareppc.com/clock/calendar.shtml
Personal I use pocket informant v5.61 with the links on my todayscreen linking to that program. If you are used to it you can't live without it !!
Regards,
R,
I use Pocket Informant too, but I haven't found any way to display this information. I don't want a whole calendar, just the day and date on the Today screen.
If you select to display 'Date' in the settings \ today \ items, wouldn't that be OK?
That doesn't display the day, only the date. I'd like both.
On my XDA II, Date shows both date and day. Make sure your regional settings are set to show both; settings / system / regional settings; look at the bottom appearance sample for Long date; you can edit this setting on the date tab. Mine is set for dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy.
-e
That was the solution I wanted, but unfortunately I can't edit the setting. Any register buff that can point me in the right direction?

As I understand U want the day notification under today screen date...if is it so...here U have the registry changes to do:
1) Go to the HKLM\nls\Overrides key.
2) Add a String value called "SLDte" if it does not already exist.
3) Set the value to a valid date format (ie for "Tuesday 8 February 2005" use "dddd d MMMM yyyy")
4) Soft reset.
Hope it helps :wink:

Primoz - You da god! Exactly what I wanted. Somehow, the Swedish translators has fucxed this up somewhere.. Checked my iPAQ and it had the same flaw.
One strange thing is if you change your regional settings, for an exemple, to English (United States) which has a long date like "dddd, dd MMMM, yyyy". Then switch back to Swedish and you will see that the long date looks like this "fredag, 25, februari, 2005". But when one presses ok this disappears...
Just discovered that if you change it to English (United States) and then make a soft reset. After that the phone has reset you change it back to Swedish and then you have a swedish long date like "dddd, dd MMMM, yyyy" in the today view
I don't know how long this will last, but there seems to be some kind of solution to this problem anyway.
This also works with calendar +
Thanks Primoz
I also dicoverd you can add your own text like " 'Today 'dddd d MMMM yyyy " and you will have " Today friday 25 Febrary 2005 ".
Hi all. I suppose this may be a WM5 regional setting issue but I searched all over with no luck. I want to change the format of the Date item in the Today screen. Currently it displays the date with a line feed (wrap) between the day name and the date, and it has the current time right-aligned on the same line. I don't want the time shown here - it's already on the top bar. I only want the date (and possibly a slight larger font size) here with no wrapping. Is there a hack for this, or do I need to get a additional Today plugin for this?
this is the thread for a TodayTimeCab plug-in that can replace the default date/time display, where you can opt not to show the time (can also select the font size).

thanks raymonds!
no problem.
Owned a Cingular 8525 for just about a month now. So glad I found this forum, its full of wonderful information from a superb community.
I've just upgraded to XDA Live 0.2 and I have a question, although I don't think this question is specific to that version of WM.
The clock on the Today screen shows the time on the top line - but it doesn't show the AM/PM indicator. I believe this was the same under the Cingular theme under WM5 that came with the phone. If my memory servers me correctly, I soon found a way to modify that on WM5 and had the clock showing the AM/PM indicator.
Problem is I made that change in my first week of ownership, and now that I've just upgraded to XDA Live 0.2, I've completely forgotten how I did.
There doesn't seem to be any way to modify the display format in the Settings->Today applet. Maybe it was a registry change I made???
Anyhow, if anyone knows a quick way to make this setting, even if it means installing a separate clock app which replaces the default, I would love to know.
BTW I did make a search on the Hermes forum before submitting this post, but I couldn't find anything relevant.
I am not sure, but this may be connected with the regionnal settings. Try to play with those option which are located in settings
I've got Wisbar Advance 2 on my 8525 and by setting the time format to 'h:mm tt' it displays the AM/PM. Maybe there's a reg hack that can do the same with the standard toolbar clock?
Try:
Settings/System/Regional settings/Time/Time Style
and then choose the H:mm:ss option on the drop down menu.
Hope this works for you
The answer to this question already exists in previous posts.
The answer to this question already exists in the wiki.
If the above post by marissa does not work (remember you can scroll up as well as down in this option) then change the registry:
Go to:
HKLM\nls\overrides
and tap on key STFmt
Some valid entries for this key include
h:mm t ........(12hr, A/P)
h:mm tt .......(12hr with AM/PM)
H:mm:ss ......(24hr)
h:mm:ss tt ...(12hr, seconds, AM/PM)
hh:mm:ss tt .(12hr, seconds AM/PM, leading 0)
Once you have done this and saved it, LONG press the on off button and wait for the warning pop up saying device will shut down and unsaved data will be lost. Tap yes and then long press on/off button to restart. Do not use soft reset or else you may find the changes you just made will be lost and you'll have to repeat the process.
You may find phone is in flight mode on restart but just turn it off.

Re: How to get Today clock showing AM/PM ?
Thanks Marisa & Mike. I forgot to mention that I had taken a look at the Regional Settings applet too, and already set that up to show the h:mm:ss tt format.
Still didn't work on displaying the clock. So I then used Mike's tip about the registry. On looking at that key I saw it was already set to h:mm:ss tt. I modified it anyway, saved, and did long shutdown, long startup.
On reboot, I don't see the clock displayed with the AM/PM indicator. Oh well, thanks anyway. I'll go and post this over in the XDA Live 0.2 thread - maybe it is something to do with this ROM after all.
Thanks again.
Sorry, thought it was just the am/pm that you were trying to show. Getting the clock to show in the first place is different. Will post later, unless someone beats me to it!
At work at present.
Mike
Try some of these:
Change the display of the clock in the taskbar
The clock in the taskbar can be changed to show not only the time, but also the date, or just the date, or nothing at all.
To show nothing:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 0 (DWORD decimal)To show just the clock:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 1 (DWORD decimal)To show just the date:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 2 (DWORD decimal)To show both the date and the clock:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 3 (DWORD decimal)Note 1: If you switch to the Analog clock display, the date will remain visible -through- the Analog clock
Note 2: Setting the clock to show 'nothing' will still keep the reserved space, showing the taskbar background, and obscure any icons that will shift to the right.
Note 3: Your date may get obscured by the space reserved for the OK/Close button in the top-right. You can fix this my adding spaces at the end of your 'Short Date Format'. See also the tweak on 'Change the Short Date Format'
The wiki has lots of this type of setting see here:

Hi everyone
this is a digital clock (& date) plugin for today screen that i found on this website:
http://www.nakka.com/soft/ptools/index_eng.html
I changed the background to black & the numbers to white & i use it now like the iphone on top of my today screen
its nice & small in size.. you can also customize the location, font size, and colors
the date is cousomizable (by prog options & through registry) but the problem is that the clock is only 24 hour format
i was hoping that someone here can look and try to get it to do 12 hour format (9:00 pm instead of 21:00)
if you can tweak to make that adjustable though its own options that would be great (eg. 09:00 - 9:00 - 9:00 pm ..etc) but even a registry tweak would be great for now as i hate the 24 hour format
2 files attached (installation & source)
thanks
iPhone look alike today clock & date
No programers here that can look at the source & develop a new CAB that makes the clock in 12 hour format???
I am disappointed... over 170 people looked but no responses...
this clock sets at the top of my today screen & it shows the date too...the font size is nice & it looks like iPhone or Slide2Unlock size & look after i changed it & reversed the colors
its very small in size & if you use the navigation it will jump over it to the next lower today plugin, which means that you get to the important items that you want to click
please can someone figure how to customize to 12 hour format?????
it seems thats the only thing missing now & with the source & original CAB provided i thought it would be easy for Xda-pros
Thanks
Have you looked at "rlToday"? it does the samething
smaller & centered
i checked rlToday
i still think tdClock is smaller in size & better ceneterd in the screen specially when the hour changes from 9:00 to 10:00 for example with an added digit (always centered)
if someone can just figure out how to do 12 hour format
Thanks

the original site (in Russian) >> http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=27712&st=0
the formats of Time and Date are 100% customiz-able!
detail discussion (in Chinese) >> http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=129&t=413779&last=3911609
by the way, the font size, position and even the font itself can be customized.
how to do: (take the attached screenshot as an example
1. install the cab
2. tap the time/date display on the screen >> tap Settings
Settings page
3. set the format of date to : dddd. dd. MM. yyyy (means weekday, date, month, and year)
4. set the format of time to : h:mm:ss tt (means hour(12hr), minute, second, and am/pm)
5. set the height of module to : 55 (to layout the module's height)
6. set both left space and right space to : 10
7. click "show icon clock"
Font page
8. choose whatever font you like, Tahoma in my case (you can change it to your content by copying new fonts to the windows font folder)
9. set the height of date: 11
10. height of time: 25
11. Vertical align (date) to "top"
12 Vertical align (time) to "Bottom"
13. Bold to "Black"
Colors page
14. tap text and background color and choose whatever colors you like
Note: "/", ",", "-"or whatever can be added to the format of time and date to seperate items. however, "\" means word wrapping. it is used only if you want to wrap the format of time or date to two or more lines.

WOOT! Thank you so much for this little gem, just what the wife was bugging me about, a clock with seconds!!! I even went so far as to make it into an OEM package for cooking, pls find attached.
Ok, I've tried BUT
Can't get the line wrap to work.
Where does the \ go?
ALso, is this the latest version? I can see mention of AlDate 1.12 on the web but can't read Russian or Chinese ;-)
WordWrap
well actually its \n that is used, normal imbeded notation
so this "ddd,\nMMM dd" would display as this
Wednesday,
Oct 24
Hope this helps.
That's fine but
Ah, I see. the example above works as well for putting the clock underneath the date.
thanks a lot
Thanks... & Font Request
Thanks alot for the great program
this one does exactly what i want
i no longer use the rlCalender
& started to use this one

How did you make the morning/afternoon show as AM or PM all mine does is a.m. or p.m.? It takes up much more room and I want my font as large as possible.
I have tried various combinations of the time format - tt, t, TT, T, but they don’t work. Am I just being to blind to see something really obvious?
New Version
Hi all
i found a newer version of AlDate
its 1.0.9
the old one posted earlier was 1.0.8

Why cant the date follow my "Regional Settings"?
Why is the "Humidity" and "Wind" condition not displayed?
I find the display from the previous version better with more info.
And any chance of having the temperature in C instead of in F? Yes I can change to C but the value is still in F!
What's this for:

what is this theme for?
I got it to work, me stupid.
1. I forgot to put %20 for spaces on the ini.
2. I had to add back the plugin order back on the sliding panel.cpr file (organics doesn't use that). For some reason this one needs it.
3. I am creating a cab file, it should be done tonight, just need to verify the updates, need to add in the reg settings for the CWeather, and the Sliding Panel, everything else looks great.
This is a major improvement over the last one. I do miss Wind Speed/Humidity, but I might play with the Ini file to see if that would work.
Also it gives more then one page worth of info, with icons on all the pages.

@xfaith
see my pm on humidity and wind.
Why cant the date follow my Regional Settings?
What is this for? how is it implemented?
Nice, but did not see any Current Temp display? a must have for me...
I dont think I'll be having this installed for long unless the date format is according to my Regional Settings and the readings is in Celcius.
Thanks
Edit
After fiddling with the ini files and understanding it better, I find this apps suites my requirement perfectly. Its light weight and user configureable to choose which weather report provider. Update times are also very flexible.
So MiniWeather stays on my device.
Thanks

Currently I am using one of the following url to sync my device time. It would be great if you can incorporate this too:

1.fr.pool.ntp.org
2.fr.pool.ntp.org
Can you explain more on the offset values. How do you determine the offset position and numbers?
