Start Menu Replacement
I hate the start menu. I would like to somehow replace it with a iphone style launcher, or really anything more finger friendly.

Is there any way to remap the start button?

Is anyone else doing this, can you recommend a launcher?

Finger-friendly wise you might check out SPB Mobile Shell. It has a lot of cool features.

.

It's set to be updated from v1.5 to v2.0 sometime this month.

Your start button will look the same but when you activiate it the above screen shot is what will appear.

Did that answer your question?

I tried that spb mobile shell, but i don't think that it allows you to re-map the start menu soft button:



I found this thread with no solution on the subject:

http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewtop...a561a33f589d28

Anyone know a way to remap the start menu button?

What phone do you have? If you have a Titan/6800, then you cannot remap the Start and Ok buttons...

Yeah i have a titan. Thats a real shame, i would have thought there would be something out there.

There's a bunch of programs that modify the start menu, you would think there would be one that allows you to re-map it's function.
