Question about using SPB shell with other mods - General Questions and Answers

Hello
I just ordered a LG KS20 and am planning on putting the HTC Diamond theme
on it. Ive never used a smart phone before but if I have that shell on it would I be able to install other mods, I want to do the iWindowsMobile zoom keyboard
and the sms-chat, and the fun contacts software too, but have no clue if thats
separate from the theme and would I be able to do both?
Thanks

Does spb mobile shell work on Touch pro ?

Hi all,
great site, I'm a newbie to all this and windows mobile, been reading and using different things from this forum, just interested to know if Spb shell works on the touch pro, might sound silly, but just installed on my sister in-laws tnty ii, it looks good, and because of the small issues with the touch flow, seems like a good thing to try, sorry if I've posted in the wrong place and the question is stupid, but just asking..... cheers . Love my touch pro, previously tried the Omnia well 3 of them......very poor
I haven't tried it on Touch Pro, but there should be no reason for it not to work..... after disabling TF3D of course

It works perfect. I use SPB shell since the first day on my TP.
salut

With a bit of tweaking, if it perfectly possible using both TF3D and Mobileshell on the TP. I did it myself, combining MS' application menus and TF3D Program Tabs without having to touch any of the manilla files, just by creating a couple of shortcuts.
yes works well
Many thanks all, I've installed it, and it works really well, in fact surprisingly well, looks good in black, now to find skins, and the dilemma in whether to use instead of the touch flo, again thanks

Interesting.
The best I could do (without touching any manilla files) is to add SPB Mobile shell as one of the Programs in the Progam Tab.
Still missing the ability to directly access the shell from the today screen (i.e. Phone Volume Setting, White/Black List, etc.)
i use it instrad of tf3d
So any SPB Mobile Shell themes that work for QVGA devices should work fine for SPB Mobile Shell on the Touch Pro (with it's VGA screen)?
Just making sure.. The Touch Pro (Fuze) should be at AT&T any day now.. If I know I can use SPB Mobile Shell to change themes it's a definite buy for me..
On a related note, is there an easy way to switch Mobile Shell themes without having to soft-boot or copy over old shell files? I really liked how in SPB Pocket Plus you could go to a 'theme' menu and choose the color theme you want.. I'd love to intall 4 or 5 and be able to switch back and forth on the fly..

I have SPB mobile shell that works with TF3D. What I've done is added a shortcut to the programs menu (in TF3d). When I press it I get a nice interface that enables me to choose which program to load.
WIndows mobile is almost completely hidden during regular use (almost).
Because of all the problems I'm having with my Pro might check out SPB. Where can I get it?

Maybe it's possible to use SecondToday to keep both TF3D and Spb Mobile Shell. I use SecondToday with PocketBreeze.
installed spb mobile shell on my htc tp... the interface works fine but somehow when i receive calls the caller id interface becomes laggy and sometimes inconsistent...
my take... so now i am using tf3d with the new s2u2 1.3 with caller id enabled and it works flawlessly ( so far)

Manilla 3D? Multiple Mobile Shell themes?

I have an ATT Fuze and would like to install a thinner ROM for better performance..
I'm not really digging the the TouchFlo3D interface.. Is is flashy, but not useful (and a bit sluggish)..
I see Manilla2D w/ nice themes everywhere.. Is Manilla2D the same as TouchFlo3D I have on my Fuze now? Or is there a Manilla3D?
Before upgrading to the Fuze, I used SPB Mobile Shell on my 8525 and really liked it. Now I see there are tons of themes for it. Can I have multiple mobile shell themes on my phone at the same time and switch between them?
I'd like a launcher that I can easily modify (add extra program tabs, etc) and have multiple themes for.. Is that Manilla or MobleShell?
Thanks

HTC Sense & Spb Mobile Shell 3.5: How?!

I would like to run both HTC Sense and Spb Mobile Shell, but no matter what I do, they just do not work together or coexist. Before, I used to to run both application with MSToggler and SecondToday.
I have written to Spb and apparently they are working on other projects...
Is there any solution to this?
Thanks,
I run SPB 3.5, and indeed it doesn't work together. Sense is being inactivated as you install SPB. But you can access quite a few HTC apps still. Just by looking for them in the windows map on your device, you can also manually add shortcuts to them in SPB.
Examples of apps that do work:
- Albums
- Camera
- Video camera
- Footcam (of the footprints suite, though this doesn't work completely well...)
- Facebook
- Twitter
Apps that do not work:
- Footprints
- Audio manager
I just use different software for audio, footprints I won't use at least in the near future.

[INQUIRY] Easy Question

There is a theme called Blue Eye for TouchFLOW phones like my Viva. I wanted to know can I use it on QVGA even if it is VGA, I would like to modify it. Is this possible?
I used to modify skins before. Just that was 5.0... I just got a Viva now and wanted to really start cracking. I'll be applying SPB Shell 3.5.3 (Latest) and the ProPlus Elegance Skin Ultimate. If I cannot get Blue Eye functional.
I'm a graphics and web designer as well so no need to worry And I had made an iPhone layout a long time ago for the HTC Wizard about 2 years ago. Mainly just a debunk version of iFonz.

Themes for HTC Pure?

I used to have a HTC Tilt and had SPB installed, effed up the screen on it and decided to get a HTC Pure. Very happy with it so far but the tech in me wants to change it up a bit.
I was wondering if there is a single thread like the one for SPB that has all the themes in it. or do I have to just search one by one. Also, which TF3d thems can I use? I found some online that didnt designate what OS it goes with so should it matter?
Any and all help is appreciated.
thanks.

are you still running the stock rom? if so there are not a whole lot of themes for it. think i found 2 or 3. flashed to a 2.5 rom and there are alot more themes for it. just gotta use that search button.
I agree, I am using the stock version of HTC Pure, tried finding themes which support the TF3D theme but didn't find any. There are themes though for Windows Mobile 6.5 which do make a difference though.
Check out the Blackstone Touch HD theme section for good themes to use on the PUre
Specifically you are looking for themes diesignated Manilla 2.1
Manilla 2.5 has 3 additonal program launcher slots and won't work.
Here some free Themes;
