I am quite impressed. HTC should hire the spb team. The interface is clean. I really enjoy it.

Have a question? Does anyone know how I can add a task program as a quick launch on the professional screen?

Thanks

I don't think you can. Another gentleman modified his lifestyle screen to make it look just like the professional screen and he succeeded. He did it so he could add the Wireless Manager widget to it while not losing the professional appeal.

I just installed this and so far I'm blown away. I think I might be ditching TF3D once and for all.

Mine is running great so far. Not sure if I should use 3D accelerator or not? Anyone know?

Sorry if it`s been covered upthread, but I had the ChangeSkin package for MS2 and the poop hit the fan when I installed MS3. Ended up having to do my first hard reset. Not a big deal, but I`m sure as hell not installing the skins pack! I`ll see what MS3 has for me, and hope S2U2 works properly.

I haven't tried this out myself, but I saw this in Modeco:

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.

I can confirm that the first method works!

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.
