What version are you using? There should be a Theme's tab in Battery Status's Options, you might have to manually pick it from there.

2 questions

1.I downloaded HHC-Appearances-20080309-Final.zip and have that on my storage card. When I click on the file, it expands into a directory tree structure with a ton of files. When I go to Home Customizer, it doesn't look like any of these files are showing up. Is there something I'm supposed to do within the Appearances directory?

2. Using Home Customizer, is there any way to reduce the size of the clock, or delete it entirely?

Phone suite??

Hi dude

are you using SPB Phone Suite 1.3 beta1, right?? i tested it too, but realize a really high battery waste, more about 20% than normall, so i came back to last 1.2 relase!! and you???!!

Ciao
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mchapman007:
I'm not sure the Beta Spb phone suite is giving me the battery drain or MobileShell 2.0 or the combo of all the Spb software together. But yes, I do have a battery drain issue. I have not done any testing to see what app or the combo of apps is causing the problem yet but I will be testing soon enough.

I've only had this Tilt for 4 days now and I'm still tinkering. My wife inherited my 8525 and the learning curve is causing me to show her the ropes on how to use it. i.e. - time spent teaching......
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] @dom@:
SPB battery drain

Thx for your quick replay ;)

..so, i can only say that you also confirmed what i want to know, because i used SPB Mobile Shell too, and this one also gave me battery problem!

In support what i'm saying, and for elucidation about that, look in these official SPB threads:

Phone Suite

Mobile Shell

many users had the same issues, like me, and you too, and for this i came back to the Phone Suite 1.2 release and not using more Mobile Shell!! :(

mmmh!!

i want only to add an answer to your MobileShell forum question and say that using only these 3 SPB active plugins, Phone Suite 1.2 , Weather 1.7.2, and Time 2.2.2, the battery life was good on my Kaiser! so, 1) i can understand the SPB MS battery drain (take care that if you want to always use it for UI, like a today plugin, it is a normal app always running on your device and not a common plugin!), 2) the last SPB PS is still in beta, and i hope in a battery fix for the final release (at least like the v.1.2), 3) consider what this two apps make together, :eek: (...already tested, ..like you!:D)!!! finally, in my opinion and experience, the problem isn't related to our device!!

First, I'd like to thank everyone for the great ideas in this thread and this whole forum. Here's my screen, so far. My goal was to build a today screen that shows all the information I want using only free software.

I'm using batterystatus with a customized theme, weather to go, traylaunch, todayagenda, kaisertweak.

what battery bar is that at the top?

Or does anyone know any other unobtrusive battery bars for the top of the screen? I had one before I did the latest rom update on my tilt and I've been searching for the past few hours and can't seem to find it. Vista hide is a bit too colorful for my taste, the one I used to have was a gray bar across the top of the screen which worked well for my black theme

(I've been lurking for a LONG time) I'm usually content gleaning information here and there, but this one is irking me.

HTC Home and email notification

I've asked this question somewhere, but never got a reply. When using HTC Home on my today screen, when I have a notification that there's an email (I'm connecting via my work Exchange server) and I click on it, it does not take me directly to my email inbox, but to the Messenging program, I then have to select my Outlook email account first. Which is too much of an extra step. Does this happen to everyone? Is there a way to get this notification to take me directly to my inbox?

I guess here would be a good place to post this without creating a new thread.

Is there a program that is similar to the slide to unlock program, but is just a screen saver?(I don't care for the sliding motion to unlock, but like the picture and time when I turn the screen on with no today screen)

ie. push power button, screen saver program is active, tap screen to fade to today screen.

It would be cooler if the today bkg and screen saver bkg was the same image so it would look like everything on your today screen is fading in.

Edit: never mind S2U2 can do all of the above. :)

Water drop animation?

I can't seem to find what i'm looking for anywhere... there's a little animation (rather than the tap and hold dots) which is like a drop of water... i saw it at spbsoftwarehouse's site in the pocket plus video demo.

I've tried searching "water drop animation" "tap animations"... is there something i'm missing here?

Its a real simple little app, but i think it kinda looks cool, gives the screen some "depth"... any help anyone? Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gmfeld:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] eskostar:
Well, as you can clearly see from the video the tapping animation is added post-capture, to give the added effect as if that stylus was actually being used and not just added virtually.

As in the end they actually press the X button and the normal hold animation appears.

If you want to use a picture as a wallpaper don't use the Settings>Personal>Today>Appearance option but open it with the default pictures videos app (pimg.exe) and use the "apply as today wallpaper" option in the menu with " 0% transparency "!!
