SPB Mobile Shell 3.0!! (3.0.1 RC 5/21)

[syrguy1969]

Wow....there is a LOT of good info in the SPB Shell forum!!!!

I haven't tried it yet (will soon) but they posted an updated patch for ThumbCal to better integrate with Shell!!

Why wont the start bar go away? Is that a trial version limitation?

[syrguy1969]

Nope....this version of Shell doesn't cover the upper task bar like Shell 2 did!! A big step back for SPB in my opinion.

Same in leaked and official though!!

Inactive = 0 will disable/hide
If Inactive doesnt exist, just create new DWORD Inactive = 1

Changing Index will change the order the shortcuts are displayed.

You can also enable/disable other Internet tab content in:

HKLM\Software\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\Menu\Root\Internet

I hope this wasnt posted already...I searched Opera in this thread.

Looking around in the threads on SPB's website, it apparently only supports OEM Opera installations. Since my phone (Treo Pro) didn't come with Opera, I'm out of luck.

That's kinda bizzare tho... you'd think they'd be installed in the same folder regardless.

I found this posted by frewys over at XDA...haven't tried it, but I asked a little about it, so I will let you know how MS2 works this way:

first of all kill the mobileshell.exe process using a taskmanager
open sktools and go to the ALL Category.
Find Move Data and Select Move Folder
browse to the Mobile Shell Folder and Select it
now it should ask where do you want to move it Select \Storage Card\Program Files
Let it do its Work
Restart Mobile Shell

P.S. Still no go on ThumbCal integration with Shell!!!

Was yours enabled by default when you installed MobileShell?

Sorry it should be Inactive = 0. No it wasnt enabled when istalled...It works for me. I wondered why it doesnt work. Again sorry for the wrong values to you and anyone else that tried this. I updated the post with the values.

GOT IT!!!!

OK.....integration of ThumbCal with MS3 is a bit different than it was for MS2 and not quite perfected yet.

unzip the file I posted earlier, and drop the .dll file into the MS3 Program folder on the device (used to go into the ThumbCal folder...not with 3 though) and then hit the reg file to activate it.

The imperfect part (from the tweaker of this file):

"Yes, the calendar widget doesn't work with this plugin. I'm still watching at this but all menu in the launcher and in organizer menu are mapped to Thumbcal instead of Outlook. Sorry for calendar plugin but I haven't v.2 so I didn't know this worked with this widget too before."

Sure enough, the widget brings you to the WM screens, but when you go through the launcher menu you open ThumbCal.

The strange part is I now have two options for Calendar and Tasks, but two have "(ThumbCal)" after them and the other two are in French (everything else in English). Not sure if it is due to the tweak or if it was that way before!!
