Useless?

How to kill taskbar and have SPB in fullscreen?

http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=717

When doing that its only good when your on the lifestyle layout of spb3, lets say you open File Explorer thats when the problem accures because you cant close the File Explorer because the taskbar is gone = no X button to hit to close the app.... if only it was possible to ONLY remove the taskbar when on the lifestyle layout of spb3 and keep the taskbar on all the other places then it would be super...

When the taskbar on the lifestyle layout is removed its looks so much better :)

Someone comon and make this possible !!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] acidbath5546:
Very Usless!

+1

I agree...its a nice start...but until u can then move up widgets into that area....it still looks pretty much like the taskbar might as well be there...

Now if an amazing developer made this work...I would be so on board...

I have an i910 Omnia, I'd like to have a battery icon that is more accurate in it's reading..instead of every 20% I'd like 1% or at least a properly work 5% increments. Samsung/verizon tried with their easy settings for a 5% increment meter, but it was wildly inaccurate...is there a way to do this with a widget or is a DLL or driver have to be modified?

Thanks i did like this open a new window and maked a black fill size was about 960xXXX

then i open a wide pic and rezized the size to 360 in height and "let" the width "follow" and then i put the resized pic in the middle but top of the black one so the head of the to pics was on top of each other and centered it. ssaved as JPG and put it in SD card and it worked fine, 360 gives u a pic that "stops" over the bottom bar of MS3 i do still not get why a 360 height dosent fill a 320 screen but i think thiss looks nice (was thinking of making the bottom bar invissible but this actully look good enugh better than letting the picture be visible trough the bottom bar ther are 1 or 2 pixels left between pic and bar but looks good

im using this on my i780 sqvga 320x320

the pics need to be wide mine that looked good was 743x360

i do not knew the origin of the pic but it was from a wallpaper thread on here so thanks someone

Works thx mskip much appreciated but how can i get rid of the scroll bar?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
What scroll bar?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Quadman:
If u look to the right of the thumbnail there's a scrollbar or line. If u move the taskbar panel up and down u can see it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Oh ok yeah i see it lol does it have a scrollbar if u have the taskmanager full size or just in the carousel view?

EDIT: uninstall the cab i sent and go into your resgistry editor and delete the 2 folders u created (the :TASKMANAGER and 12 folder) then soft reset and try the task manager normally to see if the scroll bar has gone. If it has then try reinstalling the cab and soft reset to see if its fixed.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Siliconstar:
I don't remember if i ever used va_dclock.dat but for sure I'm using vl_dclock_modern.dat as widget with the following code:

<Plugin Name="ModernDClockBig" Class="Spb.LSP.ModernDClock" Skin="vl_dclock_modern" MiddleSkin="vl_dclock_modern" DoubleSkin="vl_dclock_modern">

<BoundRect X="0" Y="0" Width="480" Height="138"/>

</Plugin>

and it works, with a clock that is as wide as the entire screen width in portrait mode (and you can change the bitmaps of the digits too).

Please note that I had to use the same file name for all "skin" (normal,middle and double).

This could be the reason your code didn't work. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] loftysnake:
Try using Class="Spb.LSP.DClock" instead, since the item id in the index.xml of va_dclock.dat is DClock (not ModernDClock).

Thanks. I've gotten that one to work already. I think the problem you had with having to specify the same skin for all three was because you gave the size in vga coordinates. Use qvga coordinants (240x66) and it will double them when it uses the DoubleSkin. This way, the same xml works on both QVGA and VGA.

Run spb mobile shell 3 and touchflo 3d and classic today all together

I FOUND A WAY TO RUN TOUCHFLO 3D AND SPB MOBILE SHELL 3 AND CLASSIC TODAY ALL TOGETHER.

check the demo at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GB4jqkfGWcU

then read how to do it.

Hey Guys,

This is my first post so hope i manage to help someone.

I installed SPB Mobile Shell 3 and it disabled my Touchflo 3d and i was annoyed so qfter two hours of googling to find a solution to this problem i got fed up and started playing around with my Touch Pro and manged to find a solution.

I HAVE MANAGED TO RUN TOUCHFLO 3D AND SPB MOBILE SHELL 3 AND THE CLASSIC TODAY SCREEN all together.

firstly i was doing this with spb mobile shell 2 but after using mobiloe shell 3 the touchflo 3d was dissabled.

so heres the method i am using and works great for me.

What you Need:

1. Second Today

2. MS3 Toggler

What to do:

Basically we are going to use Second Today to switch between Touchflo 3d and classic today screen, and also to remap the soft keys to switch between

1. TF3D and Classic

2. TF3D and MS3

3. Classic and MS3

Step 1: Firstly the problem is that MS3 loads at start up and overides TF3D. Therefore go to Program files on your device and make a backup of the file MobileShell and then delete it (alternatively you could just cut and paste it somewhere else like i did). This prevents MS3 from booting on startup.

Step 2: install second Today.

Step 3: Install MS3 Toggler (this allows you to toggle between MS3 and TF3D)

Step 4: Do a soft reset.

Step 5: Touchflo 3d should be launched on startup, if it is not then go into the today settings and enable it.

Step 6: go into the setting of Second Today and go to the Soft Keys Tab.

From here enter the title to whatever you want eg second today or today. chose the left or right soft key and select second today and then click apply to registry. now do the same but select manilla 3d.

now choose the other soft key and enter a title eg SPB. then click the 3 dots and go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SPB Mobile Shell and select [Toggle SPB Mobile Shell]. and select Second today and then do the same for manilla 3D.

Step 7: Do another soft reset.

Now you should be able to switch between classic today and touchflo and classic today and mobile shell and touch flo and mobile shell.

Now you have the best of all 3 worlds.

Look at the images for more help and the video for a demo.

I prefer spb menu left button

middle button- agenda since we can use start button as launcher

3rd button0- contacts

[Windows Mobile Themes] orlandojumpoff:
I removed everything on the bottom except the menu key on the bottom right. There is an invisible wall keeping me from adding widgets to this empty area, so like you i'd like to be able to change this. There has to be a set of parameters you can change in order to extend the area of where you can drag widgets. I just have no idea which xml file it'd be under. If anyone is interested and has more knowledge about these files, please look into this idea.

Perhaps if someone could figure this out, many of us would choose to assign various widgets there rather than have a menubar.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:

[Windows Mobile Themes] ali1010:
Wow great!!! Thanks!!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nicaragüense:
lockscreen2.xml is the file you need to edit so you can place widgets there. you need to increase the values of the dragrect based on your device resolution. soo to compensate for removing the taskbar u need to add 26 to the height. for orlandojumpoff, you'd add 50 to its height in portrait, and to ythe width in landscape. there is still a slight issue with the menu bar layer though....

Save the file as CustomWidg on your computer. Extract CustomWidg file with winrar into the qa_layout.dat file. Make sure to add password (b0fm18zq) to file in winzar. You have just completed creating the xml file. Take the qa_layout.dat file and import into your SPB mobile shell program location.

Now you need to create the corresponding key in your registry (use Memmaid or SKTools to create registry change):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\WidgetList\2\Signal with inside two strings:

Name "(Default)" Value "Signal Level"

Name "Str" Value "Signal:CustomWidg"

After both steps are completed... softreset

Go to your homescreen and add widgets. Signal widget will be under the indicators's widgets as "Signal Level".

If you need to change the location of the widget on the homescreen, you must play with the "X" and "Y" boundrect in the CustomWidg file you just created.

I have resize the icon and text size to look like it is from my attachment.

Thank you very much for your time and response. I am very familiar with pc's and phone registry editing etc... I have gone through your described process 3 times and i originally followed the instuctions on page 1 of the widgets section and I can not get the widget to display or list in any catagory in the "add widgets" section. :confused: I know I have used the password process correctly and edited the registry correctly as well. What am I missing? There seems to be a "blank" catagory bar in the add widgets section that displays no optoins. I am getting frustrated. I have wanted this widget since v. 3 came out as I loved in in version 2, just can't get it to show in the list. Any ideas?

Thanks, iteam:-)
