Hey New to this but was looking into the today screens...now correct me if I am wrong but this will eliminate the widgets, and allow me to view "ICONS" on my i910. Well I went to adrynalyne post and folloed it, but there is no today 2 just a todaty, and with this only a few of the items are there maybe 3 out of the 5 or 6. Where you are supposed to change the values of what is there. Is this only for the i900?
I downloaded the today2 zip I put it in my storage but when I opened the regedit I could not import the today2 file either. I even put it in the program files/reg folder... & it still didnt find it
...any help would be appreciated

You need a registry editor to import the file contained within the zip.

Otherwise, you still need a registry editor to make the changes to use Samsung Today 2

Hey I've been using the Today2 Screen, using the regedit, but have about 25% of the screen at the bottom that is blank. I have seen screenshots where people have put appointments, etc. down there, any way to do this?

Hey sorry, I just figured it out. I had been used to using the "Today" Homescreen, and everytime I tried to add anything to it (calendar, tasks, etc) I would get a notice, letting me know it was incompatable with "Samsung Today"
with "Today 2" I can add that to the blank space at the bottom. Don't know how to post a screenshot, but now I have my calendar and Skyfire searchbar down there.

inowit -
In order to see the Today 2 screen, you have to add a registry key (I THINK that is what it is called, I am new to it) but even though I am new, I was able to do it, and I like the Today 2 screen(s).

Second, I didn't realize you could do this, but on the Today 1 screen, if you hold an icon, you will get a menu, and you are able to delete it and put a different one on. For example, you can erase "internet" (Opera) and put in "Skyfire" (just an example, don't go crazy people if you don't like skyfire!) Grin

Ok I mow it, just follow the below path, and in your reg editor, pick "New" at the bottom (I use PHM) and just add those values that were posted initially, as adrynalyne posted (see quote) I had never done this before, but I looked at the ....\Items\Today reg entry, and saw what was in there (it is very simple) and figured it out from there. It is really pretty intuitive, once you look at another registry key. So, to start you out, you would CREATE a key called "Today 2" .etc etc. There is probably a link on registry editors around here somewhere. Remember, I don't do a lot of that, but like I said, it was pretty easy.

The file that controls Samsung Today 2, secst.dll, is already on our device. So...if you install the Samsung Today 2 cab floating around, you are adding ~700kb of unnecessary wasted space, because you aren't overwriting the ROM file, really.

All is needed is to create a registry entry.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\Samsung Today 2]
"Order"=dword:00000003
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"Options"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000005
"Selectability"=dword:00000002
"DLL"="secst.dll"

Thats it. Doesn't even require a reboot. This may also be the answer to those having issues with Samsung Today 2 on their VZW Omnias, too.

I was unable to import a .reg file with PHM registry editor, but if you have an app that can, here is the .reg file.

Ok so I can not get it to work for me. Here is what I got. I had to do it manually because I could not figure out how to load the file.

Do I do something wrong?

You've got the "t" and the "s" backwards in "secst.dll" Should work after you fix that.

Ok so now it is working fine but now it locks the phone when not in use on top of my S2U2, so essentially the phone is locked two times. I went in to settings>buttons>wake up, but the box that says "When device is woken up, lock device" is not checked. Now whats wrong?
