I posted how do do this a few days ago. Delete the MS startup link in the Windows startup folder & check the today screen box for TF3D. Now, the system will start in TF3D & MS can be launched from a start menu shortcut.

SPB Menu: Here's how to unlock the SPB Menu so you can add and remove links as you wish.
Navigate to: HKLM>Software>Spb Software House 2>Menu>Root
In there you will find folders that correspond to the menu items in the SPB Menu. E.G: Internet
You need to go into the folder and add a DWORD value called "Add" with the value of "1".
Once this is done, go to SPB Menu and open the Menu Catagory. Click the options button (bottom right) and you will see 3 new buttons.

or:

Another tip for customising the launcher. If you want to create another folder in that bottom right blank space:

- Go to HKLM\Software\SPB Software House 2\SPB Mobile Shell\Menu\Root\
- Create a new key called whatever you want your new folder to be.
- Copy the contents of the 'My Shortcuts' key into the one you just created
- Change the value of the 'Text' string to be the name of the folder.

Changing the 'Index' value changes which position in the grid the folder appears (0 is top left, 8 is bottom right). The 'Image' value will change the icon as follows:
0 = Toolbox
1 = Phone with envelope
2 = Globe
3 = Calendar
4 = Shortcuts
5 = Program Folder
6 = Camera and clapperboard
7 = Cog/Spanner



You can also rename any of the existing folders by going to that same key and changing the 'Text' string in the relevant key. You don't have to rename the key itself but may want to for consistency.

I knew I had this one somewhere, and I use it for assigning SMS to PocketCM:

Navigate to:
HKLM>Software>Microsoft>Shell>Rai>:MSINBOX

Change key labeled 1 to you SMS-Chat exe.
e.g: "\Program Files\VITO\SMS-Chat\SMSChat.exe"
Note: Dont forget the "", they are important.
Restart and try.

adding more pages to lifestyle screen this could be good for some. Found this over at modaco.com forum posted by turborepu quote:
"add more pages to lifestyle screen.. bg image pan works fine still
hklm/software/spb software house 2/spb mobile shell/widgets/homescreen
change "pagecount" to desired number.. i put 4. soft reset.."

supposedly its tested on 10 pages. the result is that when paned the wallpaper moves less then with three. If wallpaper size changed it will "smartfit" it to be the "correct" size.

Anyone trying to figure out how to make the Lifestyle screen loop? So you can go from page 3 to page 1 without going back to page 2 first.

Delete it, then when you add it back it should give you a list of your setup accounts.

In the registry there is a value

HKLM\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\NowScreen\LastEmailAccount

I don't have time to play with it right now, but someone can prob use the info.

Coz - I haven't seen this one in your registry hacks.. and I think it's the most important -

http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24155

To allow adding icons to the menus:

Go to: HKLM\Software\SPB Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\Menu\Root
You will see a key (folder) for each of the menus.

If you go into 'My Shortcuts' you will notice it has a DWord called Add set to true (1).
Go back up and create this same Dword in each of the other keys (folders).

Now when you go back into the menus and tap the bottom right arrow you will see you now have the 'add' options!

If you want to remove a subfolder (for example Media Player from the Multimedia menu) just go into the Multimedia key in the registry and delete the 'Media Player' key altogether.

Yeah, that would be an integration thing to pass SMS Chat information about which contact was selected. I use this as well and hadn't noticed this until you mentioned it.

slightly off topic, i searched everywhere but cant seem to find a today screen plugin that shows CURRENT weather in today screen? I figure since MS3 lets us switch fast to today screen I could use that to see CURRENT weather.

Does tapping on the weather widget take you right into SPB Weather, or just the weather portion of MS3?

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
Yeah, the lag for landscape switch is pretty terrible, but I can live with it. I wonder though, has anyone tried squeezing the EXE in squeezer to see if it increases performance? I do it with most of my apps, and wondered if it would work here.

The only real issue I have is SPB Home minimizing itself when certain things happen. After some installs, or change in themes, or other things. It's quite annoying to have to bring it back up as it takes a few seconds. Anyone know a fix for this?

I've had the trail installed for a couple of days now. Loving this. I'll probably buy SPB and ditch TF3D. That's say alot because I usually opt to run the free option instead of buying something.

Is there an easy way to get Opera bookmarks into the IE folder so that Mobile Shell can access them?

I probably would have bought this software if the official version fixed the landscape lag. Darn.

I have a favorites folder on my lifestyle page that takes me directly to my opera bookmarks.

Add widget -->Application-->Internet-->Favorites

Doing this makes it available to click from inside Mobile Shell and opens the link in Opera.

I am in love with SPB3... TF3D is completely gone from my phone.

As has been mentioned before... The one thing that pisses me off is the terrible lag when switching to and from landscape.
