darren.wlsn1,

glad its working for you now...

BTW, looking at the screenshot you posted i noticed that your MS3 launcher icon , contacts icon and those in the corners are different form the standard ones.

What it is? It's cool.

Storyr, I first installed WeatherPanel and the Active-Inject soon after your post on the SPB forum. It installed perfectly. I have an HTC Vogue, and installed both programs on the device. Everything worked great, except I noticed I had lost my EV connection and GPS. I could update the EV, but it was unstable. I tried to check my GPS settings with QPST, and it refused to accept the security code. So...what have I done lately that could have screwed things up? The last change was Active-Inject. I uninstalled it, and my GPS was back. I actually have not checked to see if I can access the phone with QPST at this point. I then reinstalled Active-inject to my memory card (which may have been a mistake), and got the Zip error. Although when I exited, everything seemed to work. At least last night they did. Today, I had occasional instances when I got the "WeatherPanel Loading" message, and then nothing. When I opened WeatherPanel it had the correct temp, but the icon would not update. If I went to the Today page, I could open WeatherPanel, close it, and then go to the Lifestyle page and open it there. Last night my GPS was working, today it wasn't. I once again uninstalled the Uranus file, and GPS is now working again. I have Total Commander installed, no menu enhancements that I am aware of, and it went through the installation perfectly the first time. My original installation, which seemed to install correctly, just used the default theme. I will download your updated file and install it when I get home. I realized when reading the past few pages that I have been reinstalling the original version.

I hope we get this figured out, because when it was working it is great. Just one other request when this gets figured out, can we get a bigger icon? With a bigger font for old eyes.

PS. I reinstalled Activate with the updated cab. Hit the error the first time, exited, ran it immediately again, and it went through without a hitch. Currently everything is working just like it should.

I can't imagine how this stuff could affect your GPS, or the other stuff I didn't understand

Glad you got it working, though.

As far as your request for bigger icons: So far, no. This whole concept is based on a manipulation of the MS Link widget. It will display only icons, and 64x64 is the largest. Spb doesn't publish an API for building 3rd party widgets, and what you're seeing here is the first widget that's not just a re-skin of an existing widget...

I think I figured out what was causing the problem, and might also be the answer for someone else who posted a problem with things freezing up. I realized the problems were coming at "regularly scheduled intervals". I had one setting for updates in the Lifestyle Widget Update, and another setting for updates on the Today page. Deleted the check in the box for updates on the Today page plugin, and the problems were gone.

Darn, I have the htc menu enhancement installed and I don't know how to turn it off to get this installed.

Hope this helps with some of you out there experiencing problems with the injection.

This is great info. I've solved this problem (running FingerMenu). I simply kill it before starting the injection process. To get it back, just go the FingerMenu's start link, or soft reset.

A GIANT THANKS!!!

Just for that, I'm giving you a free copy of WP-Activate!

One down, one to go. Can you tell me more about the htc menu enhancement? Is it something you install separately?

I doubt if they will. Really, the widget is really just a manipulation of their existing Link widget.

btw... nice "wood"
