GUIDE
FAQs:
1>How to autorun the rules?
To autorun a rule/rules autorun option should be checked in the main menu. auto run run only those rules which have auto option selected.
2>Can I create/delete folders using this?
yes, but you can only create and delete the user folders in SMS account
3>Will copy option copy every time it is run?
No, copy option will copy the message into destination folder and mark the copied message as read at both places. so only unread message will be copied.
4>What folder to select with delete option?
you can select any folder as the message is finally going to be deleted so it wont matter(better option is to chose "deleted items" as it is easy to view in rules view)
5>What is HIDE option!(EDIT)
this option can only be used for now in contacts page.
V3.1>If a message comes from the user it will be deleted from the inbox and saved inside the application. also autorun should be enabled for this feature to work.
V4.1>From v4.1 messages are moved to a hidden folder in the Outlook, so basically the messages are still in outlook but u can't see those.
6> Where to look for HIDDEN messages(EDIT)?
to view hidden messages go to about page and there personal menu->show and select the dropdown to select the user for which u want to see the messages.
From v4.1>To see the hidden messages u have to provide correct password and then click on the show private folder button. Doing this will create a new folder(PRIVATE) and will have all the private messages of yours
From v4.3 An extra shortcut has been supplied which will directly allow you to hide/show private smses. But you need to initially set password from the createrules application.
7>Can i delete the hidden messages?
Yes you can. In 3.1 just select and delete the message and from 4.1 delete it like you delete any other message from your outlook.
8>Do i need to create a folder to store a hidden message?
No, there is no need to select any folder name as application will take care of it. and in view rules option you can find your hidden messages rule in folder named as "#".
9>What is this "#" in contact rules folder dropdown?
refer FAQ 8.
10>How frequently will this app be updated?
As frequently as ideas pour in.
11>What is the initial password?
There is no initial password. After installing v3.1/v4.1 opening personal messages will ask you for a password, that will be used automatically in next logins.
Before using the new PrivateSMS shortcut in 4.3 you need to set up a password for use through CreateRules gui.
12>Can I change password?
Yes, when you have created a password and want to change it you can do that by checking the change password checkbox and providing the old and then the new password.
13>I forgot my password, can i recover it?
no, Contact me here for the solution.
NOTE: You have to create a new password from CreateRules link before you try to use the PrivateSMS shortcut.
14>How to install/Uninstall it?
please uncheck autorun before installing/uninstalling.
15> How to hide the PRIVATE folder?
Just close the application or again provide the password and there you can see the same button will have a text prompt to hide the folder.
For PrivateSMS shortcut it will give you an option to hide also, even if you close the application it will automatically hide the folder.
16> How can i Delete all Private messages?
to delete all the hidden messages go to your private area by providing password and there u can click on the delete private messages button, which deletes all the private messages.
17>When i go to my SMS folder i cant see any PRIVATE folder!
PRIVATE folder will be enabled only when u have started the application and clicked the show button after proving the password.
18>Do i need to create a PRIVATE folder first on my own?
No, there is no need to do so as the application will take care of it.
19>So what folder name should i give to HIDE rule?
refer FAQ8
20>Do i need to delete my earlier rules?
No there is no need to so but all the messages which were stored earlier with hide option wont be accessible. if you used 3.1
21>I want to save my earlier rules! what to do?
Just install the application at the same location or copy the rules.db, ur password and all the rules will remain same.
CHANGES IN 4.1
1. Modified the hide logic, now saves the messages in outlook.(Thanks to krups for sharing the idea)
2. Fixed some bugs.
3. Autorun application now won't remain running after a message arrives(saving battery and memory).
Changes in 4.2
1. Autorun option stops wm default notification and provides custom notifications for the rules applied. Unchecking Autorun starts wm notification.(Seems it may toggle threaded mode in some devices. U may try this solution)
2. Contact names are now in order.
3. First Name last name rules now working.
4. One more option added to add wildcard numbers. to match common format numbers.
5. Some minor fixes.
6. Select option to view PRIVATE folder in SMS inbox opens the tmail application automatically.
Changes in 4.3
If 4.2 is installed please first un-check autorun.
1. Horizontal ScrollBar added to add contact list.
2. New Tab added (Tools), gives option to Archive selected folders.
Archiving will move all the messages from the selected folders to the ArchivedSMS folder and create a subdirectory tree with same name as of the source folder and under that will create folders datewise.Eg
ArchivedSMS->Inbox->Inbox_160110
Tools tab also provides another option to run the rules over any subfolders.
Select the folder from the dropdown list and then apply rules.
3. New shortcut added in program menu with name "Private SMS" which enables you to access your private folder directly.
NOTE: You have to create a new password from CreateRules link before you try to use the shortcut.
4. The time for which wait cursor was getting displayed when a SMS is intersepted, has been reduced.
5. While changing the password from the main application it asks for the new password two times to confirm.
6. Enabling/Disabling Autorun changes the way the New Text Message is notified. Now this will change the sound and notification settings.
Changes in 4.3a
Modifies the cab to create a folder and keep all the exes shortcuts there.
Added a slider control in PrivateSMS application to fetch number of private smses it should display. Keeping it low will display the last one and maximum will show all.
This was done incase you have alot of Private SMS it used to take time to show them, this option reduces the time by limiting the number of smses you want to see
Changes in 4.4
1. Made custom notification optional, you can now select, to have or not to have a notification displayed when a sms is filtered. You can choose it from Createrules GUI menu.
2. If you have opted to be notified it will display only one notification for all the sms you receive and will have two buttons in notification window, one to close the notification and other to refresh, refresh updates the no of rules completed, incase there were more messages filtered after the first time notification was displayed.
Changes in 4.5
1. Menu modified.
2. Option added for scheduled run(Only at first tab)
3. Control over notification, choose over windows default notification, custom notification and hidden rules notification.
4. One bug fix
Changes in 4.5b
1. Fixed SMS filtering in case filtering was done in Sent items
Changes in 4.6b
1. Size reduced
2. Faster filtering
3. Should Work on threaded mode Finally
GUIDE
Known Bugs: (Thanks to Jibreil)
1. Autorun option wont work in HD2. Is this a fix?
Your Comments are welcome
Plz report bugs....
PLZ TAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR MESSAGES, I DONT WANT TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST MESSAGES Just a precaution "Never happened"
!!!WARNING!!!
Suggested by: LCyberFox
This app uses the MessageInterceptor APIs (to save battery power) from PocketOutlook which is very buggy. may cause tmail (pocket outlook) to lag or completely freeze if you receive messages quickly back to back.
A post on that:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/For...-a455840c75d4/
ps: This *ONLY* applies if you are using this app using the "Auto" mode, if you aren't, then you're safe
Incase you are about to uninstall it PLZ *UNCHECK AUTORUN* or may still lead to some lags.

I have installed now your program but I have more contact with equal firstname and more contact with equal lastname, you can add to next version on default option union of firstname and lastname?
Thanks for your work.
will try it on my HTC Touch HD
normally I sort them manually (big effort), now it seems, I found a solution.
You get my feedback ;-)
How exactly should a rule be written?
My goal is to write a rule so that:
messages starting with,
and/or ending with,
a certain word or several words,
(without a difference in capital letters or not),
get moved to a certain folder that I've created in my SMS/MMS inbox.
My failed attempt so far was to try it the following way:
I created a folder called "Filter".
I then created a new Message Rule.
For the rule I entered "BANANA" in the "Filter Message" box.
I selected the folder in the list called "FILTER".
I pressed "Add".
Now it's in the existing message rules when I select the FILTER folder.
That obviously didn't work but it was a fun try
Sidenote 1: I'm using an HTC Touch Pro 2 (European Version) with threaded messages disabled so I could create a new folder in my SMS/MMS inbox.
Sidenote 2: The program's working perfectly on a WVGA screen. Even when I slide out my keyboard and the screen turns it still works fine, apart from the fact that half of the screen hides as no scroll bars appear. This is easily resolved by sliding the keyboard back in.
Sidenote 3: It would be great if the "Unkown Contact" could be added. (The one that lacks a first and last name in the address book.)
I haven't seen the program work yet but I'm loving it already.

Thanks for testing it ysva
well after creating the filter rule did you run it Menu-> run rules ?
well the current filter works like it will search for whole message content for the given filter and that will be case insensitive.
and also it wont work for MMS
You're welcome mohitsapru.
I created 1 rule.
I opened the "MessageRule" tab.
The filter message was "BANANA", (which I entered in capital letters for tests with case sensitivity).
I selected the folder called FILTER and then I pressed "Add".
EDIT: I did get the "Message rule added" message.
The rule had been added to the "message rules" in the "Existing" tab.
I then continued to send myself a couple of text messages from a different phone number with messages such as "BANANA", "banana", "test BANANA", "banana test".
I then went back to press the "Run Rules" button. The windows loading icon appeared for a couple of seconds.
Then I went to check the "Inbox" folder and the text messages are still there. The "Filter" folder is still empty. I will now do some tests to see what happens if I choose a different folder.
Another result of testing: I just deleted the BANANA rule and the application crashed with an unknown error.
The error is as follows:
CreateRules.exe
NullReferenceException

Cant figure out y s is this happning... well we will wait till others confirm...
and thanks for testing heavily
You're still welcome.
After the error I ran the program again and it worked normally. The rule that I had deleted (that caused the error) was gone so that was fine too. I did not get another error. Perhaps it only happens when one deletes the rule, adds it again in the exact same way but with a different folder, and tried to delete it again. That's what happened the last time.
I tried selecting different folders and creating different text messages with BANANA in different folders, but that didn't work. The situation did not when if my inbox was open at the same time as your program or not. I am thinking that HTC's Touchflo might be interfering or that I need to soft reset my phone, I'm going to try that now.
Suggestion: Perhaps it would be easier if a folder could be selected that would be scanned for a certain criterium and then a folder could be selected where to move it to.
EDIT: Suggestion 2: For in the future when you're bored and have absolutely nothing to do and want to add new features: Option to auto mark as read for everything that gets moved.
Note: I noticed that you're using WM 6.5, I'm still using 6.1 because HTC has not yet provided an official upgrade for the european version of the HTC Touch Pro II. I do have the latest .NET framework etc. etc. installed. Might there be a compatibility issue?

I found out why it is erroring while deleting a rule... when either no selection has been done or no rule is selected...
Well sorry for confusion i am using wm6.1 cooked rom.... i just keep changing ROMS more than changing Signature
I have manila2d and it keeps showing SMSes. well i tried with my inbox open and ran a rule and it is working... maybe someone can give inputs for their runs... maybe some issues with different OS versions...

Hi guys,
having had various WM5 handsets, I was a little upset to not be able to adjust the soft keys located at the bottom of the today screen. This has been possible on previous units just not the Orbit. The icon is found on the settings/ personal screen under the icon soft keys. I have done a hard reset and the icon still has not appeared. Can anyone suggest a registry entry to enable this function as the pre set options are not required????
I have seen 5 Orbits and all seem to be without it is this different on the artemis or T-mobile Compact III's?
Just to add I was wondering if I would ber able to dopy the icon from my previous device and see if it would work in my XDA Orbit?
Its the softkey applet you are after - place this cpl in the \windows directory soft reset and it should appear. (soft reset not strictly necessary)
Users beware - it is not easily reversible after install - you can delete the cpl but the settings remain the same and you will need to do a registry edit to get back tp previous state.
JC#79:
The Artemis has no Softkey applet, too.
Thanks at meschle
Thanks for that is any issues I should be aware of with using this applet, as in any problems etc?
Also how would I go about removing it from the registy should I indeed choose to do so (problems permitting)?

No issues in actually using it but after removal will have to restore orig reg keys
taken from wiki - good place to vist
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\Start Menu\Programs\Contacts.lnk" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Contacts" (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.'
For some reason after removal of the applet the defaults dont return - so need editing
Thanks for that I'll give it a try later tonight after I backup the device just to be sure I can restore without any issues.
Also when you say wiki what do you mean have you a link?
Also will the applet allow me to use the softkey function as in previous handsets via softkey icon in personal tab of settings menu (am being blond has been along day)?

How have you tried to set it up? Which shortcut did you use?
I installed the file in the windows dir as advised.
I did a soft reset and attempted to use the New SMS & New MMS shortcuts.
When I try it comes up with the error message:
tnsms.exe
The file 'tnsms' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.
This also comes up for the file name 'tnmms' am not really sure what to do next, seems all other ones work that I have tried so far?

I dont seem to have those shortcuts - what device are you running?
If you can, attach copies of those lnk files in a zip.
I use wm5newmenu and it already has those shortcuts in its menu - i assigned the menu to left soft key.
I have the o2 XDA Orbit those shortcuts are a part of the messaging programme for starting new sms and mms. I will search the device and see if I can find the files and zip them up on here.
Correction I cannot find the files stated in the error message, so I am at a loss as to what to do next?
Bump
Anyone shed any light on this one? I can enable these shortcuts on my old MDA Compact yet with the applet on the Orbit it is having none of it.
Same here with my Orbit ... I wanted to use left soft key for new SMS, but it gives me an error: The file 'tnsms' cannot be opened. ...Any advice guys?
Cheers ..

Meschle - thank you for the intro to registry editing - good for beginners like me !
I use this:
Just to say, Happy Christmas to all,
AND
The registry setting for the soft keys is a marvel. I reckon it is better than any applet (going from what I hear), I havent tried any applet, I went straight to the registry and I must say It is exactly as promised.
My Setup:
O2 XDA Orbit, Mobile 6, Default Theme
Program to access Registry:
SOTI Pocket Controller Pro v6.01 (this is well worth the money)
We should post all the fixes the have been found for wm6 on the dash here to make it easier to find....
Reminder FIX:
From RandyRants.com:
Step 1: Make a change to your Normal profile. Raise the volume of some alert or something. Change something to get the device to create the following file: \Application Data\Profiles\Normal.prof.xml
Step 2: Connect via ActiveSync on XP or WMDC on Vista and copy this file to your desktop.
Step 3: Edit this XML file - add the following blurb to the SoundCategories section:
<characteristic type="Reminder">
<parm name="Script" value="v0p" />
<parm name="InitVol" value="4" />
</characteristic>
Step 4: Save this file on your PC.
Step 5: Set the System flag on this file. You can do this with a right click on the file and setting the properties or via a command prompt: attrib +s normal.prof.xml.
Step 6: Now copy it back to \Application Data\Profiles
I posted this to another thread, but the steps have changed... seems that if you don't have the System attribute set on the profile XML files before moving them to the phone it renders them useless. It also seems that on Vista with WMDC it keeps the attributes fine (inspite of having to change the OS to even see the files) but on XP/2003 with ActiveSync the System flag is removed when the file comes from the phone.
Either way, good luck with it!

Bluetooth Voice Command Fix:
WM6 Voice Command 1.6
Voice Command is a very powerful program that will allow you to control your WM6 Excalibur with your voice.
* Hands-free phone
* Dial your phone by voice using the phone number
* Contact lookup
* View contacts with a voice command
* Have the subject, time, and location of upcoming appointments read to you
* Media player
* Program starter
* Device Status
Enable Voice Command
Start > Voice Command
Voice Enabled > Yes
Announcement Routing > Bluetooth if Available
This setting will allow Voice Command to use the Excalibur phone speaker to respond to vocal commands, if you don't have a bluetooth headset connected.
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the soft reset, press and hold the home key. This is the default Record Application Button which activates Voice Command. When you hear the beep say, "Help". Voice command will then guide you through the available voice commands.
IMPORTANT: Do not talk directly into the microphone. Hold the phone 4 inches/100mm from your voice. The response from Voice Command will take a few seconds.
A Voice Command tutorial from Microsoft is here.
Enable Voice Command with a Bluetooth Headset
With the current beta release of WM6, you need to modify the following registry settings to use your bluetooth headset with this feature.
NOTE: Your Excalibur has to be application unlocked to make modifications to the registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTA GExtModule
The string value needs to be changed from "OEMAGW.dll" to "\Windows\vcbthag.dll".
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the phone reboots, your bluetooth headset will now be able to use Voice Command by pressing the button on your headset. Wait for the beep, then speak the command.
Viel Spaß mit Voice Command,
jromney

k i done it
Thanks for the fixes. Unfortunately, none of the work for me. I have the files unhidden and apparently no files appear in my App Data/Profiles folder when modifying any of the profiles.
Also, when trying to add a new key to the GDI registry folder, I get an error message saying I can't do so. I'm using Resco Explorer's registry editor btw.

My friend I had the very same problem you are having now. The reason you are getting that error message is because, your wm6 ROM got corrupted some how. what I did was, reinstall the clean wm5 ROM all over again, after that, I reinstall the new wm6 official upgrade Rom and also you will have to application unlock your device all over again! Now everything will work fine!
Reminder FIX - doesn work.
The reminder fix doesn't seem to work with the release version of WM6 for the Dash.
In fact, if you do this mod, you woun't be able to switch to "Normal" profile.
It seems if the OS determines that the profile's XML file is inavlid in some way, it will refuse to load it, and this mod seems to be invalid to the OS.
This is a BIG bug with the dash (no reminder volume setting) - I hope they release a patch for it.
UPDATE: I just found and read the full version of this fix (where you need to change the "system" attribute) and it actually now does work. I am going to try to create a CAB file to do the patch so users won't have to do all the copy to/from their PC.
UPDATE: See this page for the CAB file - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1271705#post1271705
Does anyone know how to ensure that your time is always in sync with your Exchange server? I never had this problem with WM5 but since I have upgraded my Dash's internal clock seems to have gone cuckoo. If I turn it off, and turn it back on my Dash thinks it's the same time that I turned it off at. It's like the clock just stops (would be nice if it happened in real life!)
Barring a fix, does anyone know of a utility that syncs WM time with a time server over the net using SNTP?
Edit: I found this:

see thats why we use the wiki, so you don't need to bump
Somehow when copying back edited profile files, it does not retain System attribute on the flag, which, as already mentioned earlier, renders profiles unsuable.
Here is a simple workaround that I came across:
1) On your phone, open Vibrate profile for editing. Change something and save. This will force it to create the Meeting.Prof.xml profile file in the Profiles folder.
2) From ActiveSync, navigate to that folder on your phone and rename the file to Normal.Prof.xml
Now you can go back to your phone, open Normal profile for editing and the Reminder option will be there.
Hope this helps.
Unable to change profile
Unable to change profile?
Delete files in Application Data/Home/Profiles
then go to Start - Settings - Profiles
Switch to your desired Profile or re-customize your settings on every profile that you want
**xxxx.prof.xml files in Application Data/Home/Profiles contains the customizations made on every profile, example if you have only customized the Normal profile, normal.prof.xml will be automatically generated at Application Data/Home/Profiles.So deleting the xx.prof.xml file will revert the profile customization back to default.

Celetask is supercool task manager:
Include New Task, Close task, Switch Task and View Task Properties.
Start any application through command line.
CeleTask can also execute any menu command in command line.
Include Terminate Process, View Process Modules, Properties.
Tool box with full customization support. Include Power Status, Memory Status, Free Memory, Reboot System, Shutdown System, etc.
Hot Key Customization
User can assign a hot key for any command.
All this with one press the Internet button
I use Internet button to start the Celetask and I set the hotkey of Celetask to shutdown all apps with another press of Internet button. I use "8 button" to clean the ram. And that how with 3 clicks I close all aps and clean the memory
The "1" button I use for soft restart.
To use this task manager with hotkey just download the attachment end copy two files in WINDOWS folder.
I see this in Kavana new 6.1 ROM, but you can use it in all other ROMS.

No problem, and you can try CeleCmd,it's also a good software,it help me do everything (install cab,create shortcut,input reg,and so on)after cold boot,my rom is also base on CeleCmd
I try it, but nowhere i can find documentation in English .
Can you attach the CeleTask last version in English now?
this is a great proggie. i've used it to create a shortcut to soft reset. the only problem is that it asks me to confirm i want to restart the phone. there's probably a way to bypass this, but i've not figured it out.
anyone know if there's a way to use celetask to restart the phone without a confirmation message?
Yes:
Menu-->Options-->Show Alert
Just remove the check and Celetask will make everything without questions.
Now I have a question:
how to make a hotkey with Celetask to start anoother program.
I see I can add programs to tools but can connect hotkey to them
i have the opposite question littleclown...
for some reason activesync is in my celetask and i don't want it there. there's no reason for it to start at startup. at least i don't think it's necessary anyway. it fires up just fine on it's own when i plug it into the computer.
i can't seem to get it removed from the program list in celetask.
can anyone fill me in on the trick?
Fake server for Activesync
The following info comes from Aximsite
1. open the Activesync program.
2. Select Menu at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. This will bring up the Options Menu. Notice the option Schedule... is greyed out? This is the all-critical option we need to get access to. But as it's disabled we can't change Activesync's default synchronisation schedule.
Ok, so how do we enable the Schedule option? Easy!!! Fool Activesync into thinking there is an Exchange Server to sync with:
1. From Activesync's Menu select Add Server Source.
2. In the following screens you can enter any old garbage. It does not matter, but just in case your unsure, just type the following in the indicated boxes:
Server Address: fake
Tap Next
User name: fake
Password: fake
Domain: fake
(Select save password or going into the Advanced menu makes no difference, so no need to bother).
Next
Untick all of the 'Data you want to synchronise' options
Tap Finish
3. Ok, we're done creating the server. You should now see in Activesync's main screen your normal Activesync connection(s), and a new connection called Exchange Server.
4. Go back into the Menu, and lo and behold the Schedule option is now enabled! Go ahead and tap it!
5. You will see that both options in the Schedule screen are set to Every X Minutes.
6. Using the drop downs, change both the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes to Manually.
7. Press the OK button.
Now
1. Go back into Activesync's Menu, then Tap Options.
2. Highlight Exchange Server, then tap Delete. A warning message will appear about removing files etc, but as you have no files associated with the fake Exchange Server, it's nothing to worry about - just tap Ok.
3. The list will now only show your remaining PC Sync connection(s).
I did and Activesync stop starting automatically, however after you connect with your PC you need to close Activesync with Celetask
thanks!
unfortunately it didn't work.
i'm trying something else. will report back.
Hi.
I tried to uninstall ThumbCal and everything went fine, except that in the Touch HD main screen when i click on Calender i got this message " The file 'ThumbCal' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found "
And when i open the calender from the start menu it run the original calender with no problem.
Anyone can help please ?
Probable cause: your shortcut assigned to the "calendar" key has not been changed back to its original value:
2 ways to change back manually:
- Use "HD Tweak", the TouchFlo HD area allows you to change to whatever you want.
- Or go straight into the registry and change HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/HomeLSKPath
BTW, why did you remove ThumbCal???

you patched the Thumbcal with Ssmapa?
If yes, go and send the Ssmapa Restore of Manila
wetete, to what value should i change the HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/HomeLSKPath ??
alesscam, i didn't use Ssmapa.
Appreciate your help
See what value? probably should not be given the value
alesscam, right now there's no value in that entry
Alternatively go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777&highlight=Ssmapa
using Ssmapa, do as I told you ...
Restore and restore the manila
Stressless,
You should replace thumbcal.exe by poutlook.exe (probably with the windows directory path)
For parameters, use -calendar and other stuff if you need.
Have a look at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Fo.../thread/c85bbd15-6563-4e31-8d2a-d97428d26187/
For example, \Windows\poutlook.exe in the HomeLSKPath key and "calendar -new" in the HomeLSKArguments key should get you to open a new calendar item.
Am too busy to try. Let me know if it works.
Cheers
Why do you want to get rid of thumbcal?
I fixed it.
I reinstalled ThumbCal and uchecked the option of making ThumbCal the default calendar, and then uninsatlled it again and it worked.
And i found SBSH Calendar better than ThumbCal, that's why i got rid of it.
Thanks guys for your help.

MIUI for Beginners
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

it's extremely easy.. just copy it to your SD card.. and flash it just like a normal ROM.. but it has to be flashed after the Android ROM..
1) copy it along with the ROM to your SD card
2) flash the ROM
3) flash the patch
4) enjoy

OK. Thank you. Now, I get it. I tried once as you said and it didn't work. But I didn't make clean install and didn't used sugested 150. So after second attempt i think it should work.

I get force closes with theme manager when trying to apply any theme regardless of it being new or old. Clean install too.
Edit:
Found that after applying a theme and it force closes, to see theme go to settings, personal, and enable/disable custom toggles and it'll work.
Actually, apply each separate theme one by one. They'll all force close but it'll go through when you enable/disable the custom toggles.
HI
Do i need to partition my sd card?
