Anyone got a way to change the "Launcher" and "Contact" bottom buttons?
[Windows Mobile Themes] orlandojumpoff:
did you use resco explorer to make the glarm shortcut? i got this error after renaming the shortcut clocklnk.lnk using resco.. then i realize it was hiding .ink already, so i took off one of the .ink and it launches galarm perfectly now.

edit: changed clock.lnk.lnk to clocklnk.lnk*
[Windows Mobile Themes] fronc:
The shortcut should be clocklnk.lnk

Thats LNK, not INK, just to clarify
[Windows Mobile Themes] orlandojumpoff:
yes, sorry that's what i meant.. clockLNK.LNK... only had to rename it as clockLNK because the extension LNK is already there after creating a shortcut using resco... just seeing if that other guy had the same problem in renaming.

Changing layout of SPB Menu forlders

HKLM>Software>Spb Software House 2>Menu>Root

There are spb menu folders.

Go into any folder you want change layout.

Add or change a String Value "DrawType" with value "Grid" or "List".

Now you can see that menu in grid or list layout.

VGA MS3 Big Digital Clock

I figured out how to edit the widgets to include the big digital clock from the professional page. Hopefully this helps some people out.

Use the cab attached at your own risk! It's my first!!!

Please let em know if there are any problems.

Don't forget to Soft-Reset!!

EDIT 1: Updated the file, but put in the wrong size. Duh.

EDIT 2: Updated the file. All 3 clock sizes should work fine now.

Is the "spb mobile map" the folder where spb mobile shell is installed under programs? or is that a different location? thanks

Question, how did you make the bottom bar of the lifestyle panel translucent?
[Windows Mobile Themes] cippalippa00:
It doesn't work on my diamond. After the soft reset, the new clock appears in the widgets list, but when I select it, it doesn't appear on the screen.

My rom is the udk syrius r6.
[Windows Mobile Themes] fronc:
@cippalippa00

I assume you're running the latest build of MS3? I'm not sure what could be the issue, then. Lets see if anyone else has a problem and try and narrow it down after that.

I based this cab off of the work I did on my Verizon Touch Pro. Aren't the screens the same?

By the way.. i edited the cab to fix the medium size clock. Maybe you'll have better luck with the new one?
[Windows Mobile Themes] gruvngyrl:
Amen! I just got MS3 installed on my Omnia i900 today, and I think I'm in love... except for the clock. I probably would have been fine with the big analog, but then, of course, I had to go snooping around at spbclub, and I found other people's screenies of their pro layout digital clocks on their lifestyle screens, and immediately wanted THAT instead. :p

If anyone can explain how to get into the registry to get that widget working on a WQVGA Omnia, I'm more than willing to do it myself, using Resco Registry Editor.

I tried to find it with the limited info on spbclub in the "show me your shell" thread, but either there wasn't enough info there, or I was just too dense to figure out exactly what the posters were getting at.
[Windows Mobile Themes] cippalippa00:
Yes, i'm running the latest build.

I tried the fixed version, but it doesn't work: it has the same problem.

Maybe it's a problem of my phone, let's see if even other people have the same problem...
[Windows Mobile Themes] baldoski:
I'm thinking of installing the SPB Skin release 4.1 from mikibest.

will it override the layout and the widgets?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
The backgrounds are a higher resolution so that as you scroll through the different Lifestyle screens it pans across the image like a panoramic view. Its not a fault.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
I cant be certain about that. Backup your layout in launcher, setting, mobile shell, then menu in the bottom right corner and backup to storage card (flashing a new rom so this is only from memory) and then install the skin. If it screws anything up you can just uninstall it and reinstall the widget pro plus cab to get everything back and then restore your screens in the settings. I did install that skin pack a while ago but it changed the bottom icons and I didnt like it so I just extracted what I wanted and customized my screen manually.
[Windows Mobile Themes] issybel:
baldoski

yes it will override the layout & the widgets,that's why we keep advising everyone to install the widgets manually,that's the only way that will guaranty the freedom to install any theme you see around without effecting your layout.

Mobile Shell 3 & Free Ram

Hi,

I have installed MShell 3.0.1 qvga. Works fine, but It occupies a lot of ram.

Exactly as you stated the new version is VGA and hasnt been adapted for QVGA yet. Issybel and my cab is only available in QVGA format and as much as I would like to I cant make any cabs for VGA devices as my kaiser is only 240x320 and I have no way of testing it. If someone wants to buy me a VGA device then Im all up for it lol. The new battery will be adapted soon enough just give it a bit of time. Remember every image has to be resized.

2 Items I Need

2. I would like Pocket Informant to open to the Agenda screen instead of the Week screen when I click on the MS3 calendar. Anyone know a registry tweak that would do this?

Like this (for QVGA)?

If you like it:

1 - rename the .txt to .xml and copy to the qa_layouts (CWMRTimeClock.xml)

2 - rename the .zip to .cab, copy to your device and execute (timeclock.cab)

This not interfere with other installed widget. You need to put the medium analock clock (default) over the digital clock.

Informant opens in agenda view - or any other

Bob this worked for me - shell opens in agenda. Soft reset after following instructions below.

Quote - "That's controled by SPB Mobile Shell. A couple of months ago, I came across the following on the SPB forums (I forget who the original author is) It worked in MS 2.1 - I've since uninstalled MS and have not tested it in MS 2.1.1. Your mileage may vary, and I'm not endorsing editing the registry.

"After installing the spbmenuplugins.cab:

Use registry editor to look for:

hklm\Software\Spb Software House\Shared\Spb Menu\Now\Pocket Informant

The key you are looking for is "Params"

The default value is 4

Change as follows:

2=agenda view

3=day view

4=week view

5=month view "

Don "

Hope this helps

[Windows Mobile Themes] Siliconstar:
As told in my post, at the moment the only way you can move this widget is by modifying the X and Y values in the row

<BoundRect X="0" Y="0" Width="50" Height="48"/>

located in the xml file containing the widget itself.

Of course you can have a different placement for portrait and landscape modes.

Thanks issybel & mskip.

Sorry for a noobie question, but by installing "manually" do you mean: I install the skin that I like, then re-install the pro plus extra widget?

will the widget and the layout of the pro plus extra still work with this method of "manual" installation?

Hi Lucas, I would like to add the Today page instead of the SPB Menu button. Do you have a cab file for this please?
[Windows Mobile Themes] issybel:
baldoski

By manually i mean you install any theme you like and instead of installing the pro plus widgets using the cab

you do them the manual way by putting the dat files that i usually post into \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell of your device

and then click on the registry key that i always post with the dat files and restart your Mobile shell.

It doesn't get any simpler than this,mskip makes cabs for those people that know nothing about mobile shell to make it easier for them

and if you choose the cab way,then you'll keep loosing your themes.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mituns:
Thanks, really great trick. It even works with more panels. As I already had panel 12 (with changeskin 4.1) I added panel 13 and it works fine.

Perfekt would be if the panel would not show the "build in" taskmanager, but a thirdparty tool like ISS task switcher, but I believe for that we have to wait for widgets.

Or more correct, I can see the panel in the caroussel but I cannot select it as selected panel. I noticed that for task manager in the caroussel there is a blank screen only as well, but once I select it, it does show the task manager. So anyone an idea why I cannot select the panel ? (by the way it is currently, no. 15 for me, can that be the reason?)
[Windows Mobile Themes] baldoski:
OK.

I'm no techie and don't wanna fool around with the registry for I might just ruin it.

dialpad problems.

I just set an e-mail to spb regarding this issue, but why not try here as well.

this is from my mail:

I have a HTC Touch Diamond, and have tried both ROM 1.93, and 2.03(?) with the same results. (Right now I'm running a cooked WM6.5 ROM. Left that one out in the email though.)

The main problem is with the hardware phone key button. When I press it, the dial pad does not always show if the mobile shell interface is in focus. From any other application, or if I for example press the startmenu button first to move focus away from MS, the problem disappears. The strange thing is that the problem sometimes disappears, sometimes everything works just fine for days. But then suddenly the problem comes back again. I haven’t been able to find out what triggers it. My workaround for this has been to make a shortcut to the ”phone” application on my lifestyle screen. But I want to use the professional layout instead

One other problem I have (maybe related to the main problem) is that the windows mobile popup notifications doesn’t show. I meen the notifications for calendar entries, alarms (not so funny at 6AM), and low battery for example. To view the notifications I first have to tap the taskbar, and select the icon there. After that the notification becomes visible.
