Spb Mobile Shell 3.01 Customizations

Trick and Widgets

This is for QVGA only.

Hi all. I really want to thank all of you that have spent the time to create all the great enhancements for Mobile Shell. Without all of you, I would never have my phone 100% the way I like it. Because of all of you, I can now say I am happy with the way my phone looks and performs. Anyway, I took the time to create a cab file with all the enhancements that I like. I also tweaked them a bit, so I hope you like it.

When you load the cab file, it will add the following to your phone and Mobile Shell:

1. Weather Panel 2009

2. WP-Activate 2.0

3. MS301 Pro Widgets - although I took out the ones I would not use

4. Adds Agenda button to the menu bar

5. Transparent menu bar

6. Time clock

7. Adds Task Manager to carousel

Thanks go to Mskip & Issibel for the Pro Widgets. :)

Thanks go to Abumhmmd1 for WP-Activate. :)

Thanks go to Garo_Viper for the Task Manager. :)

Thanks go to Turborepu and Mskip for the Agenda button. :)

Thanks go to Mskip for the bottom transparent menu bars. :)

Thanks go to Marcribe for Time Clock. :)

If I missed anyone, please accept my apologies. I want all of you that spend so much time dissecting the xml files to be thanked. :D

The first three screen shots are of the Pro widgets, Time Clock and the WP-Activate widgets I added. The WP-Activate widgets are now added from the install and no longer have to be injected as they were in the WP-ACTIVATE.CAB. Because of this, I took the selection for inject widgets from WeatherPanel. Along with the widgets that are added, the cab file will load Weather Panel 2009. The cab file also adds an AGENDA button on the menu bar. The forth and fifth screen shots show this. I tweaked the position of the icons and scaled down the selection so it looks cleaner. I also added the AGENDA button to the landscape view. Along with adding the AGENDA button, I fixed the layout so the AGENDA button will no longer be visible when you edit the layout. This can be seen in the sixth screen shot. The cab file also installs the Task Manager onto the carousel and makes the menu bar transparent. The Time Clock widget is also added and I tweaked the layout so the time no longer covers the am/pm. So, here is what you need to do to install this cab file:

1. Copy the cab file to your phone.

2. Run the cab file. Weather Panel 2009 installation will start. Select the language to use for Weather Panel 2009 and then click OK. This will complete the Weather Panel 2009 install.

3. The cab file install will complete. Click OK to close the installer.

4. Click on the LAUNCHER button.

5. Select Spb Mobile Shell.

6. Click on the ENU button and select EXIT SHELL.

7. On the TODAY SCREEN, tap on Weather Panel 2009.

8. Add a city and set Weather Panel 2009 settings as desired.

9. Close Weather Panel 2009 settings.

10. Click on Spb Home to restart Spb Mobile Shell.

At this point, you should have the AGENDA button on the portrait and landscape screens. You should also have a new widget group called CUSTOM WIDGETS. Here you will find all the newly added widgets.

11. Click on LAUNCHER and then select the Settings button (the checker board icon).

12. Select WeatherPanel.

13. Select CONFIGURE WIDGET.

14. Select the time interval you want the Weather Panel widget to update.

15. Select OK. You should get a message telling you the selection you chose.

16. Click OK to close the message box.

All should now be ready to go. Go back to the main screen and select EDIT LAYOUT. Add the widgets you want (to include one of the Weather Panel widgets. If you use the TIME CLOCK widget, you will also need to add the medium analog clock to the right side to get the view seen on the screen shot. Once completed, enjoy.
