Google "change softkey," n00b... It's a simple registry edit. "Never installing the software again because it didn't change his softkey back for him perfectly.."
:]

Its still poor software management to have your program change something on a phone, and yet when it uninstalls not to reset it back to its previous setting.

Alright Well I Figured it Out ..So those dont have to due a hard Reset.. Just Go To HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2 And ull see a Home Value - Just delete it ..and there you go the Left soft key returns back to The Org ...

Hopes this helps

Uninstall not working
 
I would not recommend installing this on your ppc unless you are ok with doing a hard reset - i can't find any easy solution to uninstall this app - in the forums on their web site when asked how to uninstall their reply was "Uninstall already. What where the reasons to uninstall? I like to know so we can get an idea of where things aren't right." Hey - just tell people how to uninstall it if you ever want people to try using it again. The Add/Remove programs button doesn't work, pretty obvious there's some major issues with this app.

Uninstall PointUI
 
Under programs/Update Manager there is an option to uninstall. Has anybody sucessfully uninstalled this program by using this option?

PointUI S2U
 
How do you lock and unlock under PointUI? My phone shows a lock status - cannot change that state - yet everything seems to be unlocked. How is thi activated and what does it do. My phone has always had all buttons locked except for the power button.

PointUI - A Brand New Interface for the WM6
 
WISHING EVERYONE A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.
I have been using my first Windows Mobile [HTC Touch AKA ELF] for about 6 months now and at times was disappointed by the UI of it. Inspite of being "TOUCH" it was never touch friendly i had to pull out the stylus to make my way through it.
Then came a revolution to the usability of the touch. It was the "PointUI". It is a pretty neat and most importantly "TOUCH FRIENDLY" interface for my Touch.
PROS:
- Easy to use
- Touch friendly
- Lighting fast
- Low of resource consumption [particulatly good for the initial ELF devices with only 64MB RAM]

CONS:
- Not much configuration options available in the initial release
- Lacks the basic task manager functionality [even though it shows the list of the running apps - there is no way you can stop them. The only way is go to the traditional task manager or memory settings to stop/terminate the apps]
- The close button on the applications always minimizes them rather than using the setting in the default task manager of minimizing/closing them.

I have been using it for only a couple of hours now. You can download it from http://www.pointui.com. I would rate it as a must UI and will look towards it being the default shell for the WM future releases. Thanks a lot to all of you behind it.

Had read of couple of posts about it where uninstalling is not clean and does not revert the device back to its pre-installation state - but i am not uninstalling it - just close it if you dont like it.
