I agree.  Here is a screen shot.

I took that little green Phone Suite Icon on the left off though so the Wireless icon shows.

Here is how to get an expanded calendar page on your M2D ROM.

1. Download Calendar Plus, Operator Settings and Operator Icons.zip file.
2. Disable M2D until done with everything.
3. Install Operator Settings cab.  Install Calendar Plus cab.
4. Run M2D OperatorSettings.  Check the boxes for "Enable Operator Tab: and "Show text below icons".  Rename Operator tab title to: Calendar.
5. Click on "Items" tab and make sure all items listed say "none".
6. Click "Apply" and exit.

7. Run M2DTP_Config.
8. Click on the "Menu" tab at the bottom and select "Add Window".
9. From the "M2Dtp Window menu select "Window_01"
10. From the "Windows" tab change "M2D Widget" to Operator.
11. Change the coordinates to  X:0 Y:30 W:240 H:260
12. Long hold in the "Plugins" box and select Add Plugin.
13. From the menu select Calendar +.
14. Click Apply tab and then Menu tab and select Exit.

15. Replace the operator icons with calendar icons in windows.  Unzip the Operator Icons file and copy all the files to your Windows directory replacing the current icons.

16. Run M2DC and click on the "Tabs" tab.  Check the OperatorWidget and move it to the second position in the list.
17. Click on Apply and exit.

18. Soft reset.

19. Navigate to Start/Settings/Home/Items.   Highlight Calendar+.  Make sure the selection box is unchecked.
20. Select Options from the right menu.
21. Select your options.  I use the following: Display the next "3" "Appointment and Today".  I leave all the other check boxed unchecked.  Click OK to exit.

22. Reenable M2D in your Home settings.

Enjoy!

I just tried following these directions and on trying to run the M2D Operator Settings (step 4) I get the following error:
------------------------------------------------------------------
M2D Operator Settings.exe
NullReferenceException

at
M2D_OperatorSettings.Form1.ReadHomeXmlSettings()
at
M2D_OperatorSettings.Form1..ctor()
at
M2D_OperatorSettings.Program.Main()
------------------------------------------------------------------


Any thoughts?

Sorry, I haven't run across that. The only thing I can think of is to remove the apps and reinstall them to see it that works.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, even installing old versions.  I'm going to reflash my phone soon since I've run into other issues with different add-ons like the Action Screen not working.

I use Waremike32's Nu ROM, M2D V2.  It works great and I never have a problem with other apps that I add this rom.  You can find it here: http://www.modaco.co...3518-cf03-i910/

This is a nice looking Today page.  How did you get the GPS icons that show you are locked?  I am running Lioryte rom, with MS3.  I installed GPS Toggle, but can't find a way to get those icons?

You are running the exact same setup I am now.  GPS Toggle is located in Start/Settings/Home/Items.

You need to select its check box and uncheck Windows Default and/or M2D.  Once you do this it will show up on your Today screen.  You can then activate it by clicking on it.  MS3 will not show this plugin as there is no program icon for it.  Once you have activated it on your Today screen, start Mobile Shell as you normally would and it will keep running in the background.  It has a small memory footprint and used very little battery power to keep it on.

Thanks for the info.  I was hoping I could get those icons to show in SPB MS3.  I really like MS3 and use it exclusively. I guess I can live without the gps icons, though it would be nice to have.

Thank you! I've been curious how you guy's have been able to manage this.

cool staff! many thanks!

Thanks a lot for the sharing, now I have shorcut on my today and a tab with calendar, exactly what is missed for me on M2D ROM.

I have also some time taday plugin and calendar not working but I have seen that just by launch the M2D today and set apply, it relaunch all, faster than a soft reset.

You're welcome.  I found that these plug-ins really extend the usefulness of M2D2.

[jbrittmartin]

this is fantastic.

i don't want to use GPS Toggle though.

how can i drop the row of icons down just a hair so they are directly between the Calendar button and the M2D2 tabs on the bottom?

Increase the Y setting  It's trial and error, try increasing by 2 or 3 at a time until you get it where you like it.

Get creative with it, multiple windows open to a single tab I just realized is entirely possible. Runs just as stable for me.

hello ! good morning.

there are times I'm looking for it here, just now I found the right place with right people.

If possible, could you tell me how do I cook these plugins with my rom?

any help will be of great size.  

Thanks dgyahn. Simply fantastic this work. excellent.

I've done the same thing.  Here I am using M2Dv1 with the following plug-ins: SPB Phone Suite, Spb Weather, GPS Toggle and Easy Today Launcher.
