After installing O2's WM6.1 ROM update on my Orbit II, I installed SPB Mobile Shell 3, but after removing this, there's a thick blank line under (and about the same height as) the top menubar, as if there's a blank today plug-in at the top. and any enabled plug-ins load under this blank area. I don't remember seeing this problem prior to installing SPB MS, but I could be wrong about that.
I have noticed an item in 'Programs' called Large Title Bar, but this seems to make no difference so I've no idea what it really is supposed to do, but it does sound relevant.
Anyone any ideas what can cause this blank space and how to get rid of it?

Another question..!
Second to the top bar, I have phoneAlarm running. Is it possible to 'freeze' this (or any other) plugin whilst the rest scroll as normal?
Something similar to 'freeze panes'; 'split window' in MS Excel/Word
Thanks
Generally no. But check out OdeeanRDeathshead's plugin. It's a genius solution for his plugin.
Others - I have other solutions in mind, but not for release yet

It could probably be done. I think the easiest way would be to keep track of scrolling of the today window and force an order change in the items to keep the one of interest on top. The work would come when trying to avoid sudden movements after the change and automaticly scrolling the window back to the position you had it when the today screen resets.
Or perhaps someone could find out how the date stays stationary?
personaly I think that microsoft did the wrong thing allowing scrolling. The purpose of the today screen is to have something always visible not to let it go out of sight.
Yes, I was thinking of something like how the date line was acheived to be static...
In fact, for me, having a particular today plugin static would be because I have to scroll to view my full Today screen. Stuff like appointments and tasks are unpredictable in size- therefore changing the length of that particular plugin and of course shifting anything underneath out of site.
OK this is driving me mad. The other day I noticed that shutxp, lockdevice & ciclebt aren't available as icons in the bottom right of the screen.
I am running faria crossbow on Cingular 8125 G4 CID locked.
the only mention of these particular items are in hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\today\items\batterystatus. in this reg directory there is a key title traylist and it looks as if it could be corrupt but not 100% sure as I don't know what it should actually be. In between each item is seperated by a box, as if it is an unknown character.
What I have done:
Flashed the original OS back.
Flashed Faria crossbow back.
Problem still persists. I thought for sure that would get it back but it hasn't.
It is also worth mentioning that I have been running faria crossbow fine for about 3 months. BTW, thanks FARIA.
Could someone post what the contents of the aforementioned key should be or tell me how to get these items back.
OH yeah. The screen orientation, comm manager and battery status icons are there but not the others.
Thanks In advance
Here is the contents of traylist key
0#20#11#30#40#50\windows\CicleBT.exe1windows\psshutxp.exe1windows\memory.exe1windows\lockdevice.exe
except there are boxes surrounding each number
I have also noticed that after a reset the icons are there but after it goes through the customization wizard they are not.
I have a little problem regarding the size of the desktop / Today screen on my PDA (Wizard @ WM6).
When I connect my PDA to my PC with AS, additional icon appears in the tray (even though I removed init_tray.lnk) - but that's not the problem itself.
The problem is that additional sliding bar appears on the right side of the screen. The Today plugins do not fit the Desktop anymore, so all the contents of Today is "squezzed" and moved a little bit to the left to make space for the sliding bar.
When I disconnect, the icon & additional bar disappear but the Today items do not go back to fill the whole screen, but keep "squeezed" :O I haven't managed to find any option to refresh Today screen in order to make it filled with the plugins again.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this, please?
Its a long shot, but if you were to go to Settings->Today-> Items, and click on ok (without doing much there), most of the plugins will refresh.
You could try this.....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That would almost certainly work - if you fancy a few less taps to achieve the same result, then there is a program that should (not tested it myself, so not 100% sure!) do the job for you.
Get it from http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=refresh_today - the author, t0flus, is an xda-devs member (his Group SMS app is posted on one of the forums), so he may be able to offer assistance if needed.
I'm guessing all you'd need to do is to copy the exe onto your phone and stick a shortcut to it in your programs menu.

I have the same problem on mine and all I do is slide the keyboard out about halfway so it changes the screen to landscape and then slide it back in and everything goes back to the way it was before. No software needed.
I've just received a new Vox and am trying out Goodlink on it. It doesn't seem to suit the phone very well!
I've been using a Hermes and really like the Vox's form factor when compared to it. However, I was thinking that the screens would be similar as they both have the same resolution (240x320), but the fonts are much larger on the Vox and much less info is displayed.
So Goodlink displays fewer lines than on the Hermes' display and there's some weird corruption at the bottom of every screen. Also, in some of the preferences screens, I can't work out how to save anything as the OK button is obscured by the battery and signal strength indicators.
Lastly there are no shortcuts to the Goodlink applications on the home screen or in the Programs folder. The only way to start it is via File Explorer.
Anyone had more luck than me?
Ok I realised what I had done....I restored my Goodlink install from my Hermes, so had the wrong version installed! Oops
Anyway, it all seems to work well now
Hi guys I hope someone can help. I'm using nncuong UNI 2.11.11 5.2.1933 (Build 18533.0.7.1) with 1.18 radio and a blank ext and fresh out of the box it was great aside from one problem.
Both in IE and in the pda (settings page, in the backlight setting dialogue etc) some text is 'hidden' like I need to scroll down, but I can't. I went and made the font size smaller in settings (and in IE) but it doesn't help. It's as though sometimes stuff doesn't quite 'fit' and I can't read the last bit of info in a dialogue box etc.
I can't see anywhere to switch resolution, I saw something that indicated it was at 640 but I can't remember where. Also sometimes I want to scroll to the right in IE as I can't see the right side of the page, but there is no scroll bar. Only sometimes.
Last issue is that the battery monitor icon was there when I booted up but it's vanished and I don't know how to get it back.
Can anyone help? Other than this I think it's okay.
Greg.
