Greatbal,

Problem 2 and 3 can be solved.

Placement of your tabs is most crucial in SPB MS2.1. If tab5 is MRU and tab2 is Launcher. Make sure in your Layout Name= Default section, tab2 appears before tab5 if you want Launcher to be activated instead of MRU. Same concept for Speeddial.

See below for the sample:

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab1" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="LockScreen"/>
<Int Name="IsDefault" Value="1"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab4" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="Kalendar"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab2" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="Launcher"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
<String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.Launcher"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab5" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="MRU"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
<String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.Launcher"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab3" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="SpeedDial1"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
<String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.CallLog"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab6" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="SpeedDial2"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
<String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.CallLog"/>
</Plugin>
<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Tab" Name="Tab7" ID="0">
<String Name="Form" Value="Subform"/>
<String Name="Dialog" Value="SpeedDial3"/>
<Int Name="Image" Value="4"/>
<String Name="Data" Value="Spb.Data.CallLog"/>
</Plugin>

As to [1], thinking of using qp_calendar instead of qa_calendar just to get the appointments. Not sure yet, but will investigate further.... Hope the above do help others... :D

I have been working on a skin and am using v2.1.2. It also seems to be cruicial as to placement of tab order, but it is the opposite of what you have stated for v2.1, so it seems that the order will depend on the version of Mobile Shell being used, and like greatbal, I use the current release of Mobile Shell to make a skin because that is what new users (and many previous users) will be using.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
Thanks for answering for me mtkates. :)

Yes, you can do that for version 2.1, but that would pose a problem if you use version 2.1.2. I'm using version 2.1.2 that's way I designed it to work on version 2.1.2. :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mtkates:
No problem. I wasn't really trying to answer for you, just telling what I noticed and my opinion about what version to use.

BTW, nice work on the new skin. You can sneek a peek at my current project if you know where to look.:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] g00ndu:
Thanks Greatbal and mtkates for answering this. I understand that most users must have upgraded their SPB MS to version 2.1.2. However, there are some users especially those with square screen will not be able to run the latest version 2.1.2 as this version does not support RealVGA application. In other words, for square screen though it is 320x320, it is in 128dpi and effectively speaking it is only 240x240 at 96dpi.

RealVGA allows users to have the full screen 320x320 at 96dpi and it maximizes the screen size. I belong to this group. ;)

Anyway, I am sharing this with you guys because by rearranging the tab icons order, anyone can have various tabs as the 1st page.

P/S: And thanks for sharing your info on MS 2.1.2 about the tab order. I wouldn't know this since I cannot run this version under 96dpi mode. :)

SPB Phone Suites Xperia-ish icons

For those using SPB Phone Suites, you can use the profile.dat attached to have Xperia-ish profile icons:

How to use:

1) Download the attached zip file

2) Extract on your hard drive

3) Copy via activesync the profile.dat file to your device's \Program Files\SPB Phone Suites directory (overwriting the original). Please make a backup of your original profile.dat file in case you want torevert to the default one.

Running apps button.

Yes I have and to the "T" I have followed them.

I followed another post on getting ino the registery and looking at the icon itself, But the "running apps" icon is not listed in the registery, all others are.

It's really odd..My wifes phone has no issues, my phone is a turd..

I remember I did something once (installing one of your other themes or something of the sort) and it poofed away, but I can't duplicate the fix.

I guess the more inside questestion is,

"why does this happen in the first place"?

Like I said, I have the function and button, just no icon. Very wierd.

Thanks for response

**************************************UPDATE on running apps button.**********************

I have found the fix i found awhile back.

This theme attached, named 2 different ways is the same file twice, hopefully to dummy it up some.

I have no clue what the problem is with this theme and the others, but this theme will insert a "running apps" icon in the correct place and function properly.

Greatball, your a better man than me in taking the time to create some flashy skins so that we can enjoy our ppc's more.

I will leave this up to the rest of the experts to pick apart the issue and come up with a better solution.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:
After getting two different answers from Samsung support in phone calls, they verified via Twitter message to me that the US (snapdragon) models DO NOT support dual SIM.

Apparently our eSIM is activated on the Ultra (maybe other S21-series devices as well?) but the US software won’t allow for both the nano SIM slot and the eSIM to be used at the same time.

This is really unfortunate as I’m coming back from an iPhone which I switched to solely for DSDS functionality, but I can’t stand iOS anymore.

With it likely being a software difference between the US market and international devices, does anyone here see a path forward to removing the limitation somehow?

EDIT 1/23: read conversation below. The models shipped for US market media review so far have eSIM disabled, this is contradicting the FAQ on Samsung’s website as well as communication with various support teams. If you’re looking for eSIM, continue your search elsewhere for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aroy97:
In highly doubtful the US S21 will support eSim out of the box. I have the S20 Ultra and we were also told it would have eSim, but it will be enabled in a future software update. Almost 1 year later and still nothing.

Honestly a joke considering both Google and Apple have it working for many of their devices by now. Don't understand what the problem is
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:
Here’s what they said to me

View attachment 5192845

Hopefully that representative is right, considering its right smack dab in the middle of US Samsung site stating it has eSim, we'll only know next week

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:

SM-G998B/DS
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:
Ah. Yeah anything ending in “/DS” is gonna be dual SIM, but we don’t get those in the US.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
BTW, it is 4G+5G. Still no dual 5G.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
Ohh really? I didn't know about that. Samsung is really picky when it comes to these kind of features.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:
Yup. And I’m not sure if we’ll ever find out why. Unfortunately, they’re not picky about what they train their representatives to say about our phones here. I’ve heard them say every possible SIM configuration for the same model number and it seems that no one has a confident answer.

It’s gonna be interesting when we see people unboxing their devices and finding out they were told it has something that it actually doesn’t... It’s the S20 SIM confusion all over again.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
I just bought S20 FE earlier this year. They advertised that it has 4x4 LTE MIMO. After unboxing, Turns out it isn't enable for my country. Was pissed off about it. They never give a clear answer on these kinds of stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Action123:
Legal discussion isn’t loved on XDA, but the way I see it, Samsung is really playing with fire by doing this so much. Especially in the US.

People are becoming much more aware of their tactics surrounding the preorder advertising.

[Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers] Ramgalaxy:
hey guys,

I kind of got the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy A40.

It started last summer but was a little different back then.

As I restarted my phone my phone got stuck into a bootloop and on the top left there was written in red letters: could not do normal boot.

Until this day I kept researching what actually was the problem and how to fix it.

My solution turned out to be flashing the stock firmware on my device again.

But after some tries my frp lock turned "off" and I wasn´t longer in download mode, more like a cyan background and some data on the top left.
