Tasks missing from Today screen

[cojones]

I have an xda II and have noticed that the tasks section of the Today screen is missing. I have checked all the Today screen settings and it doesn't appear there. Where has it gone :?:

puzzled, coj

p.s. In addition to the normal apps I am running codecity citytime, ms theme switcher and omega one battery bar and program bar on the today screen

It's possible that you're running too many today plugins - there's a limit of something like 12 - if you install anything more than that the system bumps one off the list. You need to uninstall one that you don't use and the Tasks item will pop back onto the list after a soft reset.

I had a similar problem when I installed alarmToday - had to get rid of my Calendar+ item and use the system Calendar one instead.

Hope this helps.

Steve.

(ps. Most Today items require a 'twice' uninstall - one to get them off the Today list, then a soft reset and another uninstall to remove them completely) :shock:

Excellent, thank you for that pearl of wisdom, worked perfectly. :P

In the first few days with my XDA-II, I loaded many apppications to test - including several launchers before settling on Battery Pack 2004/Program Bar

In spite of dozens of soft resets, and more than one hard reset, at some point the list of applications that could be launched by Program Bar suddenly lost the "tasks" option & tick icon and I cannot get it back.

I think it went while trying one of the other launcher applications, because I'm sure it used to be there, and it shows up on most vendors screen shots of their products, but I cannot understand why it hasn't returned even after the hard resets.

It's not a major problem, as I have the tasks item on the Today screen anyway, and I can treat Tasks as a user-defined item in Program Bar by giving the file link (although it doesn't pick up the "tick" icon) - but it just irritates me that it seems to have vanished!

Any ideas on how to get it back.

Thanks
