how to uninstall and reinstall this mod? I accidentally tried to delete the spbshell skin folder and now it can't ru mortscript and change the background or any other script?
[Windows Mobile Themes] ingerasu:
just remove the Spb MS and then delete the .dat files in Program File ---> Spb Mobile Shell folder

reinstal it and put the modified skin in Program File ---> Spb Mobile Shell folder

it's better to keep the original .dat files in your storagecard :) it works for me if i'd like to change the skin with another modified skin without backup the original Spb MS

PS : Sorry for my bad English explanation :D

3.1.1 320x320 beta issue

I have a Samsung Epix and this was working fine the first few days. All of a sudden it freezes when trying to switch to the calendar tab. I have to hit the red 'end' key on my phone to go to the standard today screen. When I hit the right soft key 'SPB Menu' it freezes. Also when my screen is off and I hit the power button it hangs trying to open the Mobile Shell 'now' screen - only the title bar of the today screen shows and I have to hit the end key to get to the today screen.

I know it is still listed as a Beta for the 320x320 resolution - just wondering if anyone else experienced this and/or knows a way to get it working again. I'm using the latest SPB Mobile Shell (2.1.2) and also use SPB Phone Suite 1.3.1 beta & SPB Pocket Plus 4.0.3 beta (the betas are for 320x320 support). When I run the original.mscr script to go back to the standard Mobile Shell screen everything works fine.

Thanks for any info/tips - I really liked using this for my homescreen.
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluegreenwhite:
Run the "mortscript" first, it's located in the same folder as "install WQVGA"
[Windows Mobile Themes] bluegreenwhite:
Keyboard always pop up

I have an Omnia phone installed with SPB and MikiBest's SPB skins - everytime i switch from Now screen (Samsung widgets) to SPB menu (and vice versa), the keyboard pops up and dissapears. This also happens everytime i unlock... anybody have ideas on how to correct this?

Workaround right now is to softreset my phone...

thanks!!!

Strop,

Nice mod on your now page. How did you add that middle row of 6 application icons between the launcher and status icons? It also looks like you reworked some of your screen space to have all this fit ie. middle applicaiton row, 2 more weeks displayed in calendar or is it that your phone has a larger display?

In any case, is it difficult to make this change? and can you change the app links easily (ie without editing the registry?)

Thanks

Mark

Strop, per the last post, I had to find and check out your pic of your Now Screen. :eek: That is very cool! Would you consider sharing your Now Screen files? I love that top bar, and would love to incorporate it on my own screen. Thanks! :cool::cool::cool:

I will do up a script and post the files for you.

is there any way to manually integrate other skins into this handy fast switch and customization?
[Windows Mobile Themes] hplaya:
I ran the mortscript first and still when i run the file "Install_WQVGA.msc" i get an error saying that "cannot find spb mobile shell version 2.1.2".. Any help would be greatly appreciated
[Windows Mobile Themes] bruno18:
Yup that's also the problem I get... any solution, pls help
[Windows Mobile Themes] can3gxw:
I have to ask the obvious question - you DO have SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2 installed on your device, correct? These skins are a plugin for that application. It won't work without that.
[Windows Mobile Themes] smoothcrooner:
Hi Miki,

I've been trying to install this lovely application of yours but with no joy. It keeps saying "cannot find SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2":mad:, mind you I'm still using the trial version of SPB Mobile Shell 2.1.2, has this got anything to do with it?
[Windows Mobile Themes] MikiBest:
Run the SetInstallDir.mscr script.

If necessary edit it with pc a text editor (or mobile word) to set the correct SPB Mobile shell install dir, save and run again.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nap007:
what about my question MikiBest?

[Windows Mobile Themes] smoothcrooner:
Hi,

Thanx for getting back to me. I've ran the SetInstallDir.mscr script and it says " Install Dir setted". I then went through the process running the MortScript and Install-WQVGA.mscr again, but still no joy I'm afraid, is there anything else I could do?

Edit:

Disregard my earlier comment, it now works perfect, thans x a lot.
[Windows Mobile Themes] smoothcrooner:
Hi Miki,

I've just updated from 3.0 to 3.1 but every time I try do run a different skin the I can't set the launcher buttons, analogue and digital clocks and the weather icons because they've all disappeared:confused:, what 've I done wrong? Version 3.0 was working absolutely fine.
[Windows Mobile Themes] smoothcrooner:
Can someone please tell me how to turn the GPRS back on on the Omnia.:o

[Windows Mobile Themes] annaburn:
Hi there,

2 questions...

* Has anyone experienced a loss of Samsung Widgets? I deselected spbwatcher and selected the widget option as I fancied a change and it's not working

*Is it possible to use the original spb analogue clock? I reinstalled it all just now and didn't opt to change the extra options and still had it with the iphone theme...I really like it but can't find it within the extra options so assume this is a blip due to the reinstall. I'd like to keep it but not have to have it for every theme (I tend to change themes every couple of days), if I select a different clock for another theme I'm assuming it will be lost?

Any advice on either of these issues would be appreciated :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] smoothcrooner:
Hi terror,

To be honest, I really don't know:confused:, I simply ran the "SetInstallDir.mscr script" like Miki told me to and hey presto, it worked.:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] gregy1403:
Hi guys

Any idea how to remove contacts from contact page .. there where you can assign a picture for dialing? .. looked everywhere .. no luck ;(

Thank you for your time
[Windows Mobile Themes] drowe:
Tap and hold and it will bring up a menu where you can remove the contact. I think the pictures need to be set in the WM contacts application.
[Windows Mobile Themes] gregy1403:
thank you very much .. all done
[Windows Mobile Themes] scorpion66:
Hi Mikibest,

Are there any plans for an update? You really spoiled us with the speed of all the past releases but it seems to have stopped. Just wondering if anything new is coming and what it might be?

This is still the best by far and I have tried all the others :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] 3DPiper:
This program is great!

The only think I wish it had were a preview of each option as you click it.. If I'm not at the computer, I don't know the difference between the different types of buttons or weather icons unless I go to the website and look at them..

Are any of the clocks animated? How can I make my own animated mobile shell clock?

[Windows Mobile Themes] JPo_23:
I installed this on my Xperia, following the instructions. As soon as I try to load Mobile Shell it hangs and I have to soft reset.

Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mkent_barbados:
uhh...unistall anyone?

Ok, well I don't have a skins directory (well besides the one with all the scripts, where I ran uninstall and it deleted everything but did not reset SBP to default) and can't get back to my original SBP layout. Ah well. Will try a reinstall.
[Windows Mobile Themes] brezdelnez:
O.K. this is how it is:

Have Samsung Omnia, I install Release 3.1.1 WQVGA (240x400-Omnia) version

After soft reset phone nothing its happen? In SetInstallDir.mscr I hawe:

RegWriteString("HKLM","SOFTWARE\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell","InstallDir","\Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell")

Message("Install Dir setted")

SpbMobileShellSkins are instald in My Device,My Storage.

WHAT TO DO???

THANKS
[Windows Mobile Themes] rotsu:
Hi all,

Anyone notices any performance issues after installing this?

my Xperia has become noticeably slower compared to the normal SPB panel interface. I had to uninstall it and use the normal SPB mobile shell to get this program working of course. My phone has froze twice on me after this too. Keep in mind that i did a hard reset before installing this program.

I used the WVGA themes with Xperia X1 phone.
[Windows Mobile Themes] randy_c:
I install on my X1a. Didn't work. Icons all mess up

Now Screen favorites icon

i believe someone mentioned this question a few threads back, but on the Now Screen, there are four icons (email, text, calls, and a star icon). it is my understanding that this fourth icon is a "favorites" link but i have no idea how to put "items" into this link. i've been combing the "settings" files, but no luck. does anyone know how to add links to the favorites tab? thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] syrguy1969:
I am not sure if it is different on yours, but on my device the star icon is the task manager. when I hit it, it shows all running apps and I can close all, one, or all but one from there!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] thenu:
can we have more than 9 icon on program pge?

like iphone style maybe we can have many pages on program page

thx u
[Windows Mobile Themes] DJRedLine:
Go to Settings / Customize Menu

Highlight the 'My Menu' option and then go to File, Add, Link

this is a favourites icon.

Got mine back to normal after reinstalling SBP Menu overtop the messed up version. Crazy that there is no proper uninstall however; not take away from the work they have done but uninstall I think is pretty important

Hi All,

Need help ... for some reason my weather screens disappeared .. when i hit the tab it takes me to 5 day forecast page .. and it also doesnt appear on animation .. the tab skips from setting to contacts ... please help

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] syrguy1969:
I have been using this app for a few days now on my new Omnia, and aside from a stray icon showing on a screen (I have done resaets + reinstalls) I am liking it, I just have two suggestions:

1- If possible, to generate a preview page' of the choices as you select them...I must go through the entire setup 5-8 times before I find a combination I like because I keep forgetting what one set of something looks like.

2- Perhaps an easy 'background changer' to allow users to chose unique (AKA images they have on their device already) as a portrait and another as a landscape background....not THAT would be cool!!!!

As I said...just suggestions, I like this app already and will be donating in a couple days!!!! :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mad223:
thanks for all this great stuff!!!

Can't get it to work

I have a problem. I can't get the themes to work. I'm installing Spb Mobile Shell 2.1.2 och then downloads a theme with dat filer. I then copy these files to the Spb Mobile Shell folder under programs in my omnia. Makes a soft reset but it does not work. i only get 4 black/white ikons under meny.

What is the problem?

Have been looking for half a day here and can't find it.

I used it on P750. Worked fine. Make sure you are using the right version.

Now its on my i780. 320X320 works fine too.

Except for the phonesuite icons. They dont appear. I have to use the big stock ones.

Something is wrong. About a week ago I had a various theme installed via the SKINs app, and I put my phone into 'vibrate only' mode.. Since then, my phone still thinks it's in 'vibrate only' mode even though I put it in 'normal' about an hour later. Sounds work through TCPMP or Media Player, but otherwise my phone has no sound at all.. I've tried a soft reset but no luck.. Do I need to uninstall this and re-install Mobile Shell to get my phone back?

when i press the reject call button in my omnia i come back to my main screen

especially when you ope the spb for the first time

but djred saw what my next question would be and helped me before i even ask!thanks,i would ask!lol

i'll try to unistall it and install it again(the watcer cab)
[Windows Mobile Themes] jgilfor:
For those Omnia owners who cannot get this to work due to "cannot find spb mobile shell version 2.1.2" errors, I have a postential fix (worked for me):

Open the archive, and copy the SpbMobileShellSkins folder to "My Storage". Then tap the Install_WQVGA script as per installation instructions.

Hope this helps someone.
[Windows Mobile Themes] 3DPiper:
Ok, how do I uninstall this?

I removed the Skins file from the startup folder and soft reset, but I STILL can't get my phone to sound.. All I did before installing the skins program was install a custom rom and Mobile Shell.. I installed the skins program, put one custom skin on, silenced my phone, and it hasn't rang since.. I keep missing calls..

[Windows Mobile Themes] ecky:
Thank you

Thank you so much for this great work.

I test it now on SE Xperia X1 and it looks great.

It would be wonderful to have a theme with the standard Xperia wallpaper. So there would be a uniqe design.

Also I' like to have an option to disaple the calendar tab or better switch them to a programm tab.

A fantastic program, and even better once I worked out how to use it properly. :D

I have read through just about every word in this long thread and if the answwer to my question is there, I must have missed it.

Is it possible to change the background to plain black? If so can someone please explain how it is done. I have a Touch HD so its WVGA.

Softbutton to SpbSpeed-Dial is broken

I have in SPBSettings mapped the Spb-SpeedDial-Tab to left Softkey instead of original contactlist. In German the Name of the mapped funktion is "Wahl-Register".

After installation of your wonderful skins the mapping for this softbutton is broken. SpbShell will be opened instead. In registry i found a entry for this, it links to *dialtab*. There may be a fix for this problem?

It would be very glad if you could fix this.

Thank you very much, ecky

Hi MikiBest,

No sign of you here since the 25th November? And no updates for what seems like ages. Are you ok, have you got bored with this or are you working on a big massive update?

Hope to see an update soon, I got used to almost daily updates but I guess its pretty much perfected now so no need? :)

Now Page Icons

I was wondering if anyone has a fix to the now page icons. There is a space on the now page which I think used to be for the favourites menu. This now is in the mainprograms page. The space for it is still there causing the other three icons, email text and calls to be left aligned rather than centered.

Any help to either center these three or add a replacement fourth appreciated. I run the latest version on an omnia.

some prob

i have htc HD

i instal spb mobile sheel 2.1.3

SPB Mobile Shell SKINS 3.1.1 wvga

my phone some times freez , or calender disapear from the skin (first page)

and the weathr pic also disapear some times

My question :is the problem from the version 2.1.3 or from the latest version 3.1.1 ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jelive:
Believe you can fix by going to Settings>SPB>Select Advanced on bottom>Select Menu>Make sure My Menu is checked...if you want to add stuff to it (Which will be on favorites icon on now page) highlight My Menu and click menu bottom right, then add link, then pick program you want to be there. Hope this was what you wanted.

Jim
[Windows Mobile Themes] atlatico:
These two problems I have too.

I think this is the problem of the skin Version 3.1.1. Don't forget, it's a Beta Version, there are such issues quite normal.

I hope somebody will develop further this nice Skin edition. It has a lot of potential, but at the moment unfortunately its a little bit buggy.

Hello,

I have the same problem - I tried everything, but still get the same error message "cannot find spb mobile shell version 2.1.2". I red many advises on several forums, but have not found anybodu who could help. Omnia is a dissapointing device... unfortunatelly...
[Windows Mobile Themes] syrguy1969:
OK...a wee bit off topic here, but you mentioned you thought the Omnia was dissapointing? How-so? Your the first person I have seen come out with a comment like that, so I'm curious!!! :D

P.S. to bring it back on track...I am using the latest Shell and this app on my Omnia with no problems at all (except for a stray icon on the Home page, but that doesn't affect usage at all)!!!

[Windows Mobile Themes] popelka:
OK, here are some points - I'm using Omnia for 3 weeks and:

- can't connect and synchronise via Bluetooth

- outgoing SMTP server inpossible to set up, even with heavy involvement with technicians from T-Mobile

- SMS typing - not nice - the screen appears too small and not possible to set up

- so I wanted at least to make it better looking, but I'm getting error messages....

I'm IT friendly and can do quite a lot of set up's, but such a phone for such a money I would expect much more... hope you understand now...

Where can I download the Shell and how to install it ? Could you please advise ?

Thanks in advance...
[Windows Mobile Themes] syrguy1969:
I downloaded Shell from here:

http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/mobileshell/download.html?en

Your under T-Mobile? With the Omnia? I didn't realize anyone but VZW had it yet.

I agree with the keyboard, it is a bit small, that is why I am getting a case with a slot for a stylus. I tried SPB full-screen keyboard, but it was too flukey...RESCO is good!!

I am suprised about BT...anything specific your trying to connect to? I have connected no problem with multiple headsets, and a Mac at work (in fact, the Mac was by accident...I scanned for BT devices and picked up 2 PCs (one sccross the hall from me), 4 cell phones and the headset I was actually trying for LOL)!!

Not sure if I can help with the errors, but I can try...are they all with Shell and this customizer, or other apps?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jangla:
Bluetooth - open up windows control panel - bluetooth devices. You need to set the correct com port here and match it to the active sync application (in file - connection settings). Can't help much more than that as it's been ages since I set mine up but I currently have 10 and 11 set up in my control panel and 11 in active sync. You'll also need to turn on discovery until you've successfully paired the device to your PC.

SMTP - not sure as I've only set up pop email to my gmail account. Pretty sure you can only do SMTP with a proper exchange server though.

SMS - get resco keyboard or one of the many full screen keyboard applications - much easier to use. Alternatively you could use the Samsung Phonepad option which is much easier to use but due to a bug in the firmware, you need to hack the phone to set it as the default input method (very tricky as it involves getting the right class id into the registry).
[Windows Mobile Themes] johntchow:
everything was good for the first few days but now all of a sudden when i clcik on my dial tab which is a softkey it takes me to the weather page instead of the dialer. i saw someone else post this problem but he never got a response. hoping someone has an idea of whats up.

also ever since i installed this, whenver i click the calendar icon on th ebottom taskbar (between the now and spb menu icons) my phone locks up. saw someone else ask this and they never got a response either.

so im hoping someones got some ideas. the dialer tab is a big problem for me right now. ive uninstalled and reinstalled spb MS. also whenever i go back to the original script then the dialer tab works fine. but once i go back to a new skin it gets all messed up.

ive got the verizon i910 cdma omnia.... thamnks
