when i first install the Single cab, it takes a while for the date to show up, it says DATE under the clock, but will take sometimes 20 seconds for the actual DATE to show up.
i did just as you said. and it still shows. i have my school schedule in the phone, and it will show each apointment, 1 at a time. and when one ends, say from 7-9, the next one from 915-1045 will show. then it will show the next appointment, even if it is at 10pm tomorrow.it does show missed calls and VM, which is just fine by me
you could even take the date out if you wanted. but i dont want to be too picky
i appreciate all you are doing, not only for me but some others at XDA are looking for the same thing, and i have directed them here.
