How to get Birthday from Contact list to calendar events

[amart79196]

I entered all of the birthdays for my friends in my contacts list and I would like to know how I can get them to show up on my calendar so I can remember to call them?? Any help would be greatly apprecited!

I was using BirthdayToCalendar on my old HTC Touch. Should work on the TP2 also. I dont use it anymore as I have spb Mobile Shell installed and it has the option of placing the upcoming birthdays on the home screen.

It simply amazes me that the designers don't think of this stuff in the first place.

Mine show up on my calendar? They are pulled in from FaceBook and load on the calendar automatically.

Do you use ThumbCal? Awesome program, plus it can show birthdays and anniversaries natively in the calendar.

Natively right? I don't know why it gets underlined here.

Manila Birthday

This is my first Manila project, today is "Christmas Eve" and i think it's a good time to release the fist version.

Manila Birthday generates a list of all contacts with an existing birthday / anniversary.
It calculates the age and the list can be used to create calendar entries.







Features:

• QVGA, VGA, WVGA support
• birthdays and anniversaries
• List from the beginning of the year
• List for today on
• show the count of days due to the birthday
• show the age
• show the outlook ContactPage after click on ListEntry
• generate calendar entries without duplicates
• calendar entries with reminder
• search function
• category filter
• settings dialog
• Languages Deutsch,Englisch, Español ... (26 languages)
• supports AppToDate. You can download it here

TODO:

• show the manila ContactPage instead of the OutlookPage
  ( anybody who knows how to do this please contact me)
• import Facebook contacts (if I know how to do this)

If you like my program donate me
