Also I still haven't found the place in it to change the size of the scroll bars.

I have looked at a lot of threads on Taskbars, even tried a couple but I don't seem to be doing too well. Could someone give me a link to a cool Taskbar that will run with SPBShell and will work on the i910? A nice easy CAB file would be great. (I'm also running ImarcheSkins which I love)

Well it's time to tackle some ringtones, no doubt I'll be back soon.

I haven't used SK Tools in a while, so while I know it is there, I don't remember where. The reg settings are in the thread I posted discussing changing the scroll bar width + apps to do it with. Specifically here:

cxHScr = 20
cyHScr = 13
cxVScr = 13
cyVScr = 20

Now, what they do is control the size of the arrows used on the Horizontal and Vertical scrollbars.

cx = width
cy = height

The larger the arrow, the larger the scrollbar. So a higher number for cxVScr will make the vertical scrollbar wider to accommodate the new width size of the arrow button. Whereas a higher number for cyVScr will only make the scroll buttons taller.

Hope that makes sense.

As for the taskbars, I mentioned a thread that had a bunch of really nice ones but forgot to add the link. There are a lot of WM 6.5 things in it, but if you scan through (especially the last few pages) there are some really cool taskbar CABs:

I thought it would fix it. But it just happened last night again. Maybe it will stay after the last hard reset. Maybe I need to redownload the cab?

Could someone please tell me how to disable Taskswitcher? I have a jigsaw puzzle program from SPB that I really like but Taskswitcher keeps popping up when I try to move pieces from the bottom to the top, it interrupts the game all the time. I found Adryn's Taskswitcher Killer cab but for some reason I couldn't get it to work. Maybe it's not compatible with SPBMobileShell or something. Anyway I would really appreciate a simple way to do this (with easy to follow directions please). I'm really hoping one day to get my phone just the way I want it and then be able to quit monkeying around with it, that's possible right? I hope.

Thanks in advance for your help.

xrista....welcome to the community, sorry it isn't with a better situation though, but lets see what can be done!!

Can you supply us with a little more info? What ROM are you using, what apps did you install, and a little more detail on what happens before you have to pull the battery may be useful as well!!

If taking them off one by one doesn't do anything, you may want to do a hard reset and install them one by one to see what, if any, conflicts arise. Without more detail, this is really the best advise I can give. It certailny sounds like you have a conflict on the Omnia going on. Have you done any reg changes or changes in the power settings?

And with the hard reset im gonna lose everything? even messages basic programms and gps maps? no i think not..only something in gps to get signal..do u know something may curse the problem?to try fix it before do the reset?

A hard reset will get it back to where it was when you purchased the Omnis. I would remove everything you put on it since it was last working correctly and see what happens. Do you use a backup app like SPB or RESCO Backup? If you do, do you have a backup of the last working setup?
