My HTC Desire running the Miui Rom (Android 2.2)

Left screen - has notes on which I have removed for the screenshot

Middle screen - has the apps I want quick access to

Right screen - has other apps i use frequently with everything else in folders.

The dock at the bottom has the phonebook, sms inbox, phone dialer, email, calander and the web browser.

Unlike other roms Miui has no app draw, everything is put on your home screen after installing.

My SGS II updated :p

Ditched Pure Calendar Agenda in favour of Smooth Calendar as I now much prefer looking at my month and calendar event list in Samsung's Calendar app via clickthrough smoooth the Smooth widget which is bloody amazing compared to others (stock Android & HTC*). The layout is far better and in Month view you can actually see stuff more directly as an overview.

Stock calendar look&feel:

Sorry about the fps, the video was recorded using ShootMe which is Fraps for Android but only supports 10fps for screencasting at the moment! Can't wait til the app supports dual core phones for 30fps recording :D

*The last time I checked out the HTC Calendar was on the DHD, so if things have changed in Sense 3.0 then please correct me!

Not sure if I'm teaching you how to suck eggs here, but you know on Smooth Calendar you can set it to automatically go to the calendar without that 3 button menu first. In the settings just untick the 'Show Menu' box.

I am aware of this, I prefer to have the menu as I don't /always/ want to load the calendar but instead refresh it or enter settings without having to go into the app tray for it.

Here's the first screenshot of my iPhone 4. I have it for exactly a week now and I'm really loving it. It's a huge leap going from the HTC Desire to the iPhone 4.

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
    • If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!
    • After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in many areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
