disappearing day display? got the date but no 'friday'

[sfxer]

hello!
hope this makes sense!

at the top of the today page there is the display for the date.......

it normally reads "Friday 01 July 2005"

but on my device (qtek s100 1.12 rom) it only displays "01 July 2005" the day has gone???

this only seems to happen after installing some programs, but its dosnt seem to be a specific one?

hope someone can help

many thanks

I have the same thing here. But if I put my regional settings back to Dutch it does display the date thing the right way, but in Dutch. (And that doesn't make sense if evertything else is in English) I have the regional settings on English and it doesn't say which day of the week it is.

If your regional settings are US then it displays the Day, but UK doesn't.
Sucks :evil:

You can customise the date display on the today screen. You need a registry editor and need to add a new registry key.

Browse to:

\HKLM\nls\overrides

and add a new STRING value called SLDte

Its value can be a combination of:

d - One/two digit day number
dd - Two digit day number
ddd - Abbreviated weekday name
dddd - Full weekday name
M - One/two digit month number
MM - Two digit month number
MMM - Abbreviated month name
MMMM - Full month name
y - One/two digit year number
yy - Two digit year number
yyy - Full year number


On mine, my SLDte key is set to

dddd, d MMMM yyyy

so today it displays "Friday, 1 July 2005"


Hope that helps...

Hi

I just made the changes to the registery. works great.

Coul somebody please tell me how many entries they have in
nls\overrides

It looks like i could have deleted 1 by mistake. I only have 3 inc the date change string.

many thanks

Many thanks for that tip. Do you know if there any simple way to put the time on the same line too, there's probably space and it would work well there. No worries if not, it's on the bar above anyway.
