oiption for showing tasks?

hi evyerybody,

SPB mobile is perfekt,

but i'm missing an option to activate an overview for my tasks in progress in the professional or Lifestyle Layout :-(

any idea??
[Windows Mobile Themes] skaroger867:
i mean the one apothehouse was talking about. i want to make my carousel wheel and all the other pages (like the pro one) have the same background. transparent bars would be great too
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lucas0511:
Attached in my post 386, dont forget to deactivate 3D acceleration for background to work in carousel.
[Windows Mobile Themes] skaroger867:
damn didnt see it before.

whats the password? and what do i do with these?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lucas0511:
Developer's note:

All resolutions should be supported

2 images can be defined for portrait and landscape

2 images can be defined for carousel portrait and landscape

All to be found in FondEcran.dat file

Installation :

Replace qa_layout.dat in \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell

Paste FondEcrant.dat to \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell
[Windows Mobile Themes] skaroger867:
when i try to extract it ask for a password. i translated the french site with kmeleon and dont see it on there
[Windows Mobile Themes] skaroger867:
maybe apothehouse will be kind enough to share the PW with us.

i assume apothehouse knows it since he posted the link. i did not see it in the 4 pages on the forum
[Windows Mobile Themes] Zepiii:
I think you must registered to see the password...:confused:
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lucas0511:
Sorry guys, mea culpa, there is no PW. Just rename file to .rar, and it will work. Had to rename into .zip in order to upload here - apparently that does not work... So now we have backgrounds for all panels file in post 386, instructions in 391.

Disengage Pro panel:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SPB Software House 2\SPB Mobile Shell\NowScreen\Layouts

There are 12 keys, backup and then delete HOME2 key, softreset

Open Menu instead of Favourites with Launcher:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\NowScreen\Layouts

rename key ":LAUNCHER" to ":SPBMENU"

rename key ":SPBMENU" to ":LAUNCHER"

Softreset not required.
[Windows Mobile Themes] nachopre:
Password is the same for .dat files: "b0fm18zq". But where is the qa_layout.dat file to replace?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Lucas0511:
There is no password. General question: If one replaces .dat files based on French MS3 installation, wont panel titles and else be French afterwards?

[Windows Mobile Themes] Bismar:
The french site files does not resize themself automatically on my omnia, had to modify the images myself, and it does not want to theme the launcher page for some reason.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Bismar:
Can we get a repost for the link? Its dead, and the forums from which it comes confounds me. (ie language other then english)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
either rename it to .zip and then open it using winzip or you can just associate .dat files with winzip and then open them by double clicking on them the same as you would a zip file. Always remember to use the password: b0fm18zq when zipping or unzipping or it wont work.

can we scroll lifestyle pages continuosly with "WidgetsProPlusUltimate_QVGA" ?

i loved the lifestyle screen after putting the "WidgetsProPlusUltimate_QVGA" as the bottom menubar disappeared and the screen looked enlarged and widgets looked awesome.

i don't want to put "ProPlus Elegance" as this reduces my screen size again and i can have most of its new features with the old spb menu editor.

Could you please make a .CAB file for "WidgetsProPlusUltimate_QVGA" so that we could swipe all lifestyle pages in a continuos order without scrolling back to the first again ?

i hope, you understand what i mean to say..

Thanks !!!

:) :) :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I know what you mean. I will have a look at it but it should be easy enough to do. I was going to bring out an updated version of Ultimate anyway with the new widgets I have made so if its possible I will include that aswell :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] carl99:
Could you add the small version of the digital flip clock as well? If I remember correct its in jgjackson theme. As the poster above I prefer the old ultimate theme but with the new widgets. If I had'nt wrote it before - you did a fantastic job to tweak Mobile Shell!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] aypee3:

[Windows Mobile Themes] Mattster_spv:
Agreed! Infact, now that MS3Config can be used to change any background and edit the number of lifestyle pages, I would also suggest an update to the Pro Plus Basic 070809:

1. Strip the bottom Menu Bar of the 3 middle buttons.

2. Add the new continuous slide.

3. Add any new widgets.

The latest Elegance version is beautiful, but for me (and I guess it's all personal preference) I really miss being able to use the space in the bottom bar.

Thanks Mskip,

Mattster.

manila 2D

I know there is an HTC theme and I've tried it but it was made for MS 2.1 I think and it didn't work. Does anyone know if there's a manila 2D or TF3D theme for mobile shell 3.x and in wqvga if possible....I've check the thread and think I saw one.....but don't remember were......

Thankz
[Windows Mobile Themes] vashwood:
thanks. How exactly do I use this? I wanted to add jgjackson's widgets to mskips. I have already installed the ultimate vga edition.
[Windows Mobile Themes] abumhmmd1:

Extract WidgetInjector.rar

Copy the folder where you want on your ppc

Go on your ppc in the folder WidgetInjector

Click on WidgetInjector.exe

Read the instructions

Restart MS3 or soft reset

[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I assume you mean the Ultimate version? I always leave Basic totally alone apart from the widgets. Ultimate has no bottom bar or buttons at the bottom so I cant strip anything from there lol.

I mentioned earlier in the Elegance thread that im going to be making a new version of ultimate soon with the new widgets and continuous scrolling as soon as I have ironed out all the widget problems in Elegance. Should be ready by next weekend I hope.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I think the only widgets JGJackson has on his collection that I dont have is the small digital clocks and im making some of those for my next QVGA version :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] nycdemons:
Do you guys have any digital clocks widgets that is centered for WVGA? I tried searching for it and only found VGA/QVGA/WQVGA and hardly any WVGA for my xperia (unless any of those resolutions actually do work on my phone, because I'm not too sure about the res).I don't like having analog clocks, but I want it be like when i first got MS3, where the battery indicator appears on the right and the weather on the left; it'd be great to have a big digital clock just centered there.

*EDIT* Im trying to find a digtial one like actual digital letters found on an alarm. As of now i'm using mskip's widgets pro plus, which is also great btw :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] anubis1126:
Yeah i would like digital clocks with a variety of colours similar to this

and yes i have this on my omnia and i have no idea how lmao i just cant remove imarche skins coz i know its in there i played a while ago and got this clock but have no idea how and its only in blue
[Windows Mobile Themes] mbernstein:
I did some searching but couldn't understand the answer to my doubt, which is:

- in Xperia X1, using stock ROM, is it possible to install MSKIP cabs?

- If so, will his widgets be used by the Sony's own MShell Panel (which comes with the ROM) , or you have (can) to install MShell 3 standalone software itself?

I appreciate any input.

Thanks.

[Windows Mobile Themes] MarkAtHome:
No sure, but I think that is a function of Regional Settings.
[Windows Mobile Themes] JudgeDredd67:
Why does it have to be so difficult to do this? Why shouldn't you just be able to import any widget from anyone into your theme? This seems ridiculous to me. If the widget exists in a dat file, you should be able to copy that dat file to a widget folder where upon the next start of MS3 it would find it and be able to use it. Then if you don't want to use a widget just delete the dat file and restart. Or did I miss something that requires this to be more technical?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
The simple fact is that that's the way it is with Spb Mobile Shell and moaning about it isnt going to make it any easier :D. Untill you can persuade spb to change the whole way Mobile Shell is made then the only way to import widgets from one theme into another is to follow the steps I have outlined, the dat file contains how the widget looks, the xml file controls how the widget is displayed and moved around the screen and the registry entry displays the widget in the list. Its never going to be as easy as copying a dat file into the Mobile Shell folder and poof it works :p

There is a widget injector but I have never tried it and im not sure how it works and how it performs the additions needed so if you want an easy life then find it and give it a go :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] JudgeDredd67:
I agree complaining will not change anything. :) But you must agree that it would be much better to make a cab that contains the dat, xml and registry changes for each widget or packs of widgets and be able to install and use as many as you wish, which would benefit the users and the developers.

I know Sbp is not going to re wright the application. ;) But that does not keep me from wondering that with an application of this nature, why would you want to make customizing it and adding to is so difficult? When it's main purpose is to customize.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
If they wanted to make customization easy then they would have issued developer kits to the countless number of people (including me) that requested one be made available, or fullfilled the requests of hundreds of people on their own forums asking for new widgets. Instead they have never offered any assistance to anyone wanting to enhance their product or enhance the useability of the many thousands of customers using Mobile Shell worldwide.

I agree with you 100% and hope that in the future they see that the ability for anyone to make widgets and applications for their product can only benefit everyone using it but I guess only time will tell :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Themes] JudgeDredd67:
Agreed! I just thank you for the wonderful work you do and hope Spb see's what they need to do.

Also thank you so much for your responses and your time.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Ur welcome :D I just hope that my cabs make using Mobile Shell a more pleasureable experience. I could easily keep everything I did to myself or never answer any of the questions people ask but thats not the type of person I am ;)

Hi, I have some problem with adding Widget Pro Plus VGA. I have HTC Touch Pro with Energy ROM 3.0. I installed cab and when I want to add some Pro widget it doesn´t add. I can add only original widget. And also how can I fast delete some contact (because I have everyone contact twice - SIM card show contact is dissabled)? Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] Mattster_spv:
I second that motion.

After a while it's easy to take Mskips' cabs for granted as they work so well.

Using SM3 without them simply isn't an option.

Mattster.
[Windows Mobile Themes] dustinb17:
I DEFINITELY concur. If it wasn't for MSkip I most likely would have moved on from MS3 long ago. Thank you for all your time and work MSkip.

sms problem with SPB and WM 6.5

Hi guys,

I've a issue with the standard version of SPB mobile shell 3.0.1. I'm running it on a blackstone and WM 6.5 from Mikenificent 2.6. When I get a "new SMS notification" on the today screen and go to my inbox to read it, I cannot open the message itself (only look the preview). Is this a know issue with SPB mobile shell and WM 6.5?? How can a fix this? Is there a fixed version to

download?? A friend of mine has the same issue, so I'm not the only one !

Screen mixed up

Hey folks, when using SPB on the newer 6.5.1 builds (Currently using JD's 23049 build from PPCGeeks) I will get some odd background glitches when putting it into landscape.

I'm running Sprint Touch Pro, the ROM above, using the latest SPB with mskip's Ultimate.

I've put in some screenshots. Has anyone else been getting this problem?

Again, this only happens while in landscape.
[Windows Mobile Themes] conao:
Hi mskip,

First of all, many thanks for your great work! I had "parked" SPB Shell 3.0 on my HTC Touch HD and decided to continue using TouchFlo 3D. But I'm giving another try now, with your add-on. If it proves to be a "must have" you'll be receiving my donation soon.

I noticed two small problems with the Elegance version I installed today, thouth. I can't change the background in the Lifestyle screen and the Digital Clock (Pro) widget doesn't appear on the screen. Is it only me or are they known bugs? Or am I the "bug" here... ;-)

By the way, to help me decide which version to go for, what are the main differences (advantages?) between Ultimate and Elegance. Is it that Elegance is more configurable? It seems to me that the extras and widgets are the same, right?

Thanks,

Marconi

black panel of the right softkey

i'm not sure if this has been discussed before but i tried to look for it and did not find anything.

is it possible to have the black panel that slides up when you press the right softkey be translucent, not completely transparent? right now, it's black and it's a bit overwhelming for me.
[Windows Mobile Themes] AlienHairball:
Hmm but if it were translucent wouldn't it potentially be weird overlaid on the icons already on your lifestyle screen? I guess it would be nice if you didn't normally have any icons on that screen though.
[Windows Mobile Themes] joshzzz2001:
thanks for the comment. you may be right, but i think it's just okay as long as it's not completely transparent, just a little less opaque.
[Windows Mobile Themes] catman51:

[Windows Mobile Themes] ladyofthemists:
Oh new Widgests soon to check out. Yay!

I have two odd questions for someone. I am using MSKIP Ultimate QVGA widget pack (thank you for making those) and since installing both SPB Mobile shell and the widget pack i have lost my task manager in my top bar. Not to sure if it disappeared before the widgets or not. Is this normal?

Also Is there a way to make a smaller version of a contact widget? I would love my contacts to be about the size of a small application widget. Hope that makes sense.

Thank you in advance

Ladymist

Oh forgot a question, right now my widgets seem to snap to a grid when i move them to set them somewhere. Anyway to turn that off?

And how do i get the slider bar on the bottom i see in some pictures of screens?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Pro Plus Ultimate couldnt addect your Task Manager in any way, I think Mobile Shell might take it off when its installed but im not sure.

I dont think a small contact link is possible, sorry.

I think the grid snap is not changeable or possible to turn off but I have never looked into it so it might be. I have looked in every part of the registry during my modding research but I have never come across a reference to it.

If you are refering to the slider just above the menubar at the bottom then thats probably ProPlus Elegance. You can get to that thread by clicking on the link in my signature :)

[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I dont know if the 'weather pro no text' will be able to go at the bottom like you want but I will try to make the selection box as tight as I can so it might fit. Is that what you wanted it for originally?

When I post the next updates for Widgets Pro Plus I will make a new thread as I have for Elegance. Any questions can then be asked there instead of clogging up this thread. I dont think I will get to it tonight as I worked til 3am last night finishing the xperia clocks but hopefully I can get QVGA done tomorrow :)

Yes, I'm hoping to put the weather icon at the bottom. If it works, great; if not, I'll live. ;)

[Windows Mobile Themes] CelticREI:
Well, I'm answering my own post here, I just reflashed, same ROM just had to flash/reflash to do some ##DATA stuff, and I didn't install volDeus's MS3 Config (I had .15 installed), that was what was doing it. I installed everything else I normally do, it didn't mix up the screen, then I installed .15 and it started back up. So I'm going to test .16 and see if it does the same thing.
