Just uninstalled it. The UI is inspiring but the functionality seems a version or two shy of a product yet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] keithdupont:
I have to agree although not uninstalling just yet. My gripes are as follows:

This so called facebook integration is a joke, all you can do is get a picture for contacts - if thats all it is good for, why bother?

I agree with alot who have posted that the gui seems a little like it was designed by two different people, although I feel skinning will solve this.

I am able to skin this program, I am just not real motivated about doing so right now.

I expected the interface to take over more of the standard wm crap.

They worked on this for a very long time and I am not seeing the benefits of their labor. I know the carousel is cool and all, but I miss gestures. I have figured out how to remove some of the stuff out of the carousel view so you can get wherever a little quicker.

Although I agree with most that the icons and graphics are a little 1995, I am not so worried about that as skinning will solve this just like with 2.0 release.

If I decide to keep it after the 15 day trial I will probably try to get the BB Storm theme to work with 3.0 if anyone is interested, I know it is a little "old news" now

Anyway just my 2 cents

SPB Mobile Shell version 3 is by far the best application i've yet installed on my saga other than qik for video streaming here are some screen shots. love how you can fully customize the lifestyle pages.

Contacts Page

Main SPB Home page with custom background

Page full of widgets (aka shortcuts)

Launcher Carousel Page

Contacts Carousel Page

The ability to crop a picture in a contacts profile pic.

Also version 3 if you have facebook and the contact is a facebook contact they have integrated facebook into the shell so that you can go into a contacts profile and click on the menu button to the lower right and click on facebook and it pulls that contacts recent profile pics for you to choose from. screenshots will be shown if requested havent taken them yet.

No flickering of the screen here program runs flawlessly. maybe you have a screen shot program that is making the screen flicker when pressing certain buttons, i know when i press my lock button on the side quickly it takes screen shots and makes the screen flicker but thats the only time mine ever flickers.

Xperia X1a user here R2A rom US

ok so my first impression: its awesome! has the look of cupcake (sorta) cool widgets and super slick interface.. glad the panel button wrks again

did have a few problems with the shell, seemed rather slugish if u wanted to switch back to today or exit the shell and restart it, seemed to take a while. also... anyone else notice if u added any widget regaurding the camera it did nothing.. wouldnt open at all im using R3a camera tho.... couldnt change icons at all... which is rather annoying considering the features pocket plus 4 gives u for adding/changing icons and their names..... i uninstalled due to the speed of the shell and the inconvience of the icons and widgets ..... i hope they make sum tweaks .... such a beautiful shelll. and very finger friendly

ok. P.S. and... does anyone know if you can add today plugins like widgets? this would be awesome too add google search as a widget... couldn't figure out how... thus why i reverted back to just plain old pocket plus...

just a few tweaks and it'd be perfect!!!!

someone mentioned them working on this a long time and not seeing the fruits of that labor... i'd agree. so much could have been added from pocket plus... so much could have been done without... and why is it still so memory hungry? grrr it's so pretty wish it worked better

-How to add new configurable panel in the carousel -

-Remove to the PC from pda the following file program files \ spb mobile shell \ qa-layout.dat

- Open it with Winzip using the key b0fm18zq, of inside we extract to the PC the LockScreen2.xml file, we open it with a publisher of xml (I recommend Notepad++) we modified the line:

<General>

<ScrollY Value="Off"/>

<DialogObject Value="Spb.Data.LockScreen2"/>

<String Name="RegKey" Value="HomeScreen"/>

<Int Name="PageCount" Value="3"/>

<Int Name="Background" Value="1"/>

<Skin Skin="qa_misc_now" MiddleSkin="ma_misc_now" DoubleSkin="va_misc_now"/>

</General>

By:

<General>

<ScrollY Value="Off"/>

<DialogObject Value="Spb.Data.LockScreen2"/>

<String Name="RegKey" Value="HomeScreen2"/>

<Int Name="PageCount" Value="3"/>

<Int Name="Background" Value="1"/>

<Skin Skin="qa_misc_now" MiddleSkin="ma_misc_now" DoubleSkin="va_misc_now"/>

</General>

-We kept it as LockScreen3.xml, again put it in qa_Layout.dat (using the same key, if you have not closed the window zip during the process you can copy inside and only accept).

- We again put qa_Layout.dat to its site in the PDA (program files \ spb mobile shell)

Now it is necessary to publish the registries I recommend (Rescoexplorer)

- We go to HKLM \ Software \ Spb Software House 2 \ Spb Mobile Shell \ NowScreen \ Panels and inside there are 12 keys (folders) numbered 0 to 11, we add a new key (folder) with name 12, open key 1 we copied the values and paste it in new key 12,we modified, them so that they are thus:

(Default)

(value nondefined)

Home

0x1(1)

Name

:HOME3

Text

(the name you like)

- Now we go HKLM \ Software \ Spb Software House 2 \ Spb Mobile Shell \ NowScreen \ Layouts, we add a new key (folder) call here :HOME3, we open :HOME2 copy the values paste it in :HOME3, within we modified them to :HOME3 so that they are thus:

(Default)

LockScreen3

LockScreen3

Lifestyle

Make one softreset, the next time when you open carousel, can see that this has a new configurable panel like the one of " LifeStyle" , the problem this in which the equal wallpaper to LifeStyle Home" and you can't change it neither to panels… This I put bond to add to new panels exponentially lockscreen4, HOME4,13. .ectect… Also can remove panels:

- We go to HKLM \ Software \ Spb Software House 2 \ Spb Mobile Shell \ NowScreen \ Panels and inside there are 12 keys (folders) numbered 0 to 11, within each there is a key that it indicates to that function belongs....LifeStyle Home is the 0, professional Home the 1… is only necessary to be opening them and to see its name once located for example removing professional design we eliminated key 1 and the one that was the two consecutively happens to be the 1 and thus rename all, it cannot have jumps among them… Clearly?

Hope it can help for customize yours devices...

Enabling 3d Acceleration should cure the flicker

User sir_hc posted the fix in the Kaiser forum, and it worked for me.

In Spb Mobile Shell settings choose system, and then "yes" to "use 3d accelerator"

My tilt will sleep once more! That really was driving me nuts.

Thanks again to sir_hc for cluing me in.

Icons disactivating for programs installed on SD Card.

The only issue I'm noticing is shortcuts to programs installed on the sd card disappearing, e.g. from the launcher, from the lifestyle pages. The text name of the program stays there, e.g. for MemMaid, but the icon disappears and nothing happens when you press on it.

I have to remove, then replace it so it works again.

I have build 6362.

Problem changing background

I really like this shell, but I can't change the background on the Lifestyle screen. Or rather, when I click "Change Background", the picture chooser comes up, and if I select any picture, MobileShell.exe crashes. I verified that in the Registry it does change the "HKLM/Software/Spb Software House 2/Spb Mobile Shell/NowScreen/Background" entry to the chosen picture, but even after a soft reset it still comes up with the previous one.

Interestingly enough, after I re-installed Spb MS, it retained all my settings - and started using the new background I selected. Weird, huh?

Anybody else experiencing the same thing?

For the record, I have an HTC Fuze, using Spb MS version 3.0.0 Build 6411 with the AT&T Test ROM, Xbmod's Rhodium is installed, too, if it makes any difference.

Those of us who make calls on our phones do this mystical ritual to get calls made.

1. Press the green key on the left, that was known as a "call" key in the beforetimes.

2. Push the pretty on-screen buttons in the order of your phone number

3. Press the magic "call" button yet again (remember, its green)

4. At the conclusion of said call, press the red "end" button on the right.

There, see, that didn't hurt at all!

EDIT: Ok, fine, some HTC phones don't have colors on the call and end keys: spoilsports.

Question, how are people making the bottom background of the lifestyle panel translucent?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nicaragüense:
i figured out how to add l/r gestures to the professional page. dunno if its been posted before..

the menubarcontacts.xml has the code. go into it and you will see what im talking about.

Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.MenuBar" Name="Contacts" ID="12">

<String Name="Open" Value=":TIME"/>

<String Name="OpenL" Value=":HOME"/>

<String Name="OpenR" Value=":WEATHER"/>

<Int Name="isActive" Value="1"/>

<Int Name="Replace" Value="1"/>

<String Name="Backgrd" Value="MenuBackgrd"/>

<String Name="Icons" Value="Icons"/>

<Rect Name="SrcIcon" X="0" Y="100" Width="48" Height="50"/>

/Plugin>

i changed the values of the open,openl,openr to :TIME :WEATHER and :HOME. you have to do that for each button. then i saved it as menubar3.xml. i then edited the lockscreen, time and weather xmls by changing the menu info on the very top to Layer Name="Menu" Dialog="MenuBar3"/. zipped them back into the layouts.dat

exit and restart ms3 from spb settings menu or restart.. now i csn swipe through those pages from the professional screen.. this bssically will allow people who sctually know what the hell they are doing to make the pro screen be like ms2. i only tried it fast to see if the swiping works, but i did not edit the skins or add a panel button in the corner. youll see what i mean..

also to change the text on the pro page for launcher snd contacts, edit the menubar.xml file.

dont give me no lip about spelling or my post format, im still doin all my research/editing directly from the omnia. :) hope this info helps.

Would it be possible to create a Swipe down from MS 3 (from Home Professional at least) to get to regular Today screen? I mean, from Home Professional if you swipe up you go to Lifestyle, if you Swipe Down you leave MS 3 and go to Today? That will solve a major annoyance many people are experiencing that they have to tap 2 or 3 times to get to Today from MS 3 (meaning, now you have to get to Home Profeesional, tap low right hand button and only then tap <show today>).

Alternatively, anyone knows how to assign a hardware button to do this, <show today>? I have SPB P+ and there is no command there.

Thanks a lot.

PS: in MS 2 you could either swipe up/down or press OK button to leave MS 2 to Today.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nicaragüense:
i dont see a easy to swipe up or down. seems like that is built into the program. i think spb will have to make that an option or give us the link for the today screen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mbernstein:
That's sad to hear.

I guess your answer applies to the hardware button as well? I asked SPB support about this but no answer so far.
