Your pics show the settings link on the slider. Hit the top left corner, the start menu. Then when that pops up, hit settings. That is how I have got around the blank screens anyway. I think I had to hit it a couple times though.

Nope, that won't work either. Does anyone know of a way to go in and remove a program another way or am I stuck doing a hard reset again. BTW soft resets don't help either.

Common sense.
ie don't be cab download happy.
Read & Re-read all the info.
A good cab should be supported by lots of discussion not be from just a post attachment.

That's why the 6.5 tweaks thread posted is kinda dangerous when it's just a cab attached based on one person's decision not on a thread.

Try uninstalling thru activesync. That should do it.

Do you have Co0kie's Home Tab mod installed? I've ran into lots of compatibility issues with Sprint's Windows Mobile 6.5 and home tab mod.
The only way I've been able to fix most of my Sense screw ups is by first uninstalling Co0kie's Home Tab mod then uninstalling the other cabs at fault.

I've hear nothing but bad things about the new sprint stock rom, I was waiting for it, and calling multiple times a week ever since november, but gave up and waiting and flashed a custom rom.

it amazing how much better our chefs here at ppcg and xda are better and faster than those getting paid by sprint.

i suggest flash a custom rom before running into more problems.

Can you get to settings from SPB Mobile Shell?

Some times switching between shells will let me get to things one of them won't

4ColumnsStart&AllPrograms_v1.1

That is making my settings tab blank. So now how do I remove a program if I can't see any of the icons on the settings tab? Man I suck at this.

I ran into the same problem with this program. Luckily, I didn't have too many programs loaded on the phone yet and did a hard reset.
