im only going to try it because im hard resetting to remove a bunch of junk i nolonger use. more of a demo. ill post speed results and bugs. its not a mem. issue though.

Spb MS runs as a start up prog, the last thing Iwanna do is move it to SD. There are tons of other prog that may be better moving but not spb there is absolutely no need. My 2 cents man..forget moving spb.:headbang:

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
Eventhough I wouldn't suggest it, I know a lot of PPC users are very tight on memory, and every kb they can save is gold, so I think darren.wlsn1 using the opportunity of doing a hard reset to try out this little tweak for all the people that can really use it (I would have given serious consideration on my 700wx) is a great thing!!!

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
syrguy said it better than me, its just a test. i also dont use v3 on start-up, i removed the link in start-up folder under windows. this is only a test to see what works and doesnt. it may help others and thats why im trying it, i have 0 mem. issues. i repeat, this is only a test. lol thanx to coz for posting the wallpaper in op also.

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
Whats up guys? I was wondering if anybody other than myself was expereiencing some stability problems while using Mobile Shell 3.0 combined with Sensor scroll? I was using sensor scroll before 3.0 was released and the app itself was working fine. Although i did fine out that sensor scroll does not like Sensor Lock. Those two programs wil cause havoc with your phone if installed at the same time. So to fix that i switched to AC's S2U and sensor scroll worked great. Then came the addition of mobile shell. (which is absolutely detroying TF3D!! IMO) Then Mobile shell became very unstable and i found myself soft resetting my phone about ever other time i tried to use my phone. Well i tried everything to remove other programs i wasnt really using and stil the unstability. Then it hit me...it was sensor scroll once, maybe its sensor scroll again? I uninstalled sensor scroll and viola' unstability is gone! I put the programs that i had removed back on there and still no instability. My question to you guys is, is there a registry hack or something that would
1) allow sensor scroll to work in the background of 3.0 so that when you hit those menus that were not included in 3.0 ie File Explorer
2) work all together with 3.0 so that you could scroll thru the 3.0 menus using the wheel
Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a way or can someone point me to a thread so I can change my ringer/alarm options in spb shell 3.0.
I have a vx 6800 and would like to have it so my phone will not ring while I have it set to silent, but still have the alarm go office if it is set to.
Last time I has that option was in HTC home and I miss it a lot

The problem with opera is that 9.5 beta installs into different directories than the older versions, so MS3 cannot see them. You can change some of this in the registry, but why, just follow the steps below to make it work.

The easy way, find (earlier in this thread) the power toy for editing the menus. Then unzip it, and transfer the .exe file over to your phone. The file does not install, it simply runs when you click on it, so know where you put it. I added it to my tools group in the launcher for future use.

Once you run the power toy program you can then check and uncheck the entries in each menu group, you can add sub-menus and you can add new files to run in the various launcher groups.

For Opera (assuming that you have 9.5 beta) you cannot use the built in opera link (or favorites or history) you can add a "link" to the internet group and then select your Opera install from the list that pops up.

Hope this helps. The instructions to go to SPB settings, and then check and uncheck, is from MS2.1. MS3 has type of feature, ONLY if you use the power toy.

That worked. Still no hope for getting my bookmarks thru the shell tho. I wonder if there's a way to have Opera automatically pop up the bookmarks upon launch, like the link in TF3D.

Yea I used the normal Today screen before. It looks like the culprit is with SPB Weather tho. I haven't used it at all today and my battery life has been more normal. I tried turning off the auto-update within it but it still seemed to drain while it was running, so for now I'm going to "un-integrate" it from MS3.

I'm having a somewhat annoying problem with MS3.

Text message notifications will stop showing up on MS3 as well as S2U2...

I'll hear the texting sound, see the SMS icon at the top, but none of the programs see that I have a new text message. Disabling MS3 from starting up solves the issue with S2U2, but why won't MS3 see that I got a new message?

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out.

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
Nice set up, Darren. Hey, TF3D is being a pain. I know this has been discussed at some point, but I cant remember where. And Im going back to 6.1 TF3D and SPB 3 together, because I got to have the SMS from Rhodium. Im gonna try to set it up as just a few tabs on TF3D and the rest on SPB. I think that will work out good for me. I cant get it to work, Ive tried 2nd today, etc., TF3D and SPB dont seem to want to get along. Am I alone here? Or is this a real problem?](*,)

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
You have to move the SPB out of the windows start up folder.

go to settings/today and enable touchflo 3d. That will get you manilla.

If you want to get SPB mobile shell, what I did was I copied that MS3 EXE to my storage card. Then, I unchecked one item from the start menu. Next, I copied the MS3 exe into windows/start menu. Or, you could just go to the MS3 file and run it. I found my way easier to access. Good luck.

I've noticed two issues. I've upgraded from MS2 to MS3.
1. The plugin for mobile shell to integrate with Agenda Fusion 8 no longer works.
2. All of the sudden s2u2 cannot hook the keyboard when MS3 is installed.

Any thoughts?

New skin app!!!
 
MikiBest released a first version of an MS3 skinning app!! I am sure it is a little rough around the edges yet, but I think that was pretty quick to get at least a beta out already:

He has already promised the other versions (screen sizes + VGA) to be out soon, and I am sure (much like the MS2 version) more clocks, icons, tabs.... will be added as he goes!!

See my edited comments for more info. The only issue that remains is the Agenda Fusion integration.

Hopefully this helps some of you editors and developers out there.

>What is the password to open, extract, or edit .dat files?<
The password to edit most .dat files is: b0fm18zq
I have found that the best way for me is to copy the .dat file that I want to edit to my PC. Rename it with a .zip at the end to open as a zip folder. Extract and edit it that way.

Re: SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!!
 
too bad i haven't had the same luck with mobile shell as lots of people have.... just cant get used to the damn thing, I absolutely love everything EXCEPT the home screens which is a deal breaker at the moment cuz that is what I have to look at the most, pro screen looks crammed with too much stuff IMO for a device that isn't not (W) in resolution and i never liked the look of the lifestyle screen, i think i have tried like 500 combinations and setups and i never liked any of them, and why isnt there an option to hide the taskbar and make it full screen like 2.0? ... i have installed and uninstalled like 20 times already

oh well... i'm gonna have to wait for the real themes to drop, and by that i mean overhaul themes

Ok, I just registerd to the french site, i guess start by how to change background in the carousel..cool?
Guys:
Anybody shows how insert the widget attached that came with spb 2 in MS3? I do not wanna double the effort.

This is the powertoy...just catching up
Just attached the powertoy, if this is posted elsewhere then forget it, unzip, extract exe to spb mobile shell and launch from there to be able to change menus as we were able in MS2

I haven't tried it but I don't see why you couldn't. You would just need something like Total Commander to do the extracting and renaming of files. Does anyone know if it will let you enter the password when extracting/compressing the files?
