Does anyone know of a method of switching between these two shells on the HD2? It seems to me it's impossible to get Sense to run without uninstalling SPB, which seems a bit ridiculous to me. I like both interfaces and would like to choose one or the other depending on my mood.
Yes, I have the same problem with my htc hd and spb shell 3.5
anybody found a solution?
Especially given the fact that some apps are actually integrated into Sense, and once disabled, you are unable to access or use them!

Unfortunately, No.
It seems that SPB mobile shares resources (classes) with HTC sense. Once SPB mobile is installed, SPB mobile overwhelms HTC sense. Either SPB Mobile or HTC sense, not both.
I use SPB mobile and Leo.
It's a pity. Many functions of HTC Leo cannot be used then. So, if you love HTC sense, don't use SPB mobile; if you desperately want SPB mobile, don't buy Leo.
I think the burden should be on SPB. It is their responsibility to develop interface software that compatible with their target.
Unfortunately, they have not taken this responsibility.

WRONG!
i wrote a little tutorial on how to switch between SPB shell 3.5 and sense smoothly without the need to disable either.

It's a bit bizarre that you can't have an SPB shortcut in the quicklinks. Maybe someone will resolve that, because that would really help!

yeah true... i think someone tried to map the left softkey to spb home but that didnt work either. At least we have some form of switching for the time being.

Yes, you are right, I was wrong. I am happy that I was wrong!
I tried. It works. The solution is quite simple indeed, surprisingly. Many thanks for the amazing solution.
I searched official forum of SPB but no solution is presented there. People on that forum discussed and all despaired at last. So I thought Spb and Sense cannot live together.
Someone wrote in this forum that s/he still uses HTC because there is XDA-developers. I join his/her comment.
Sense is sluggish and causes the same in SPB!

I havent seen this at all!
SPB has been good as gold as has sense (only time sense ever lags is when it loads upon startup).
In fact if you install Chainfire's revamped graphics drivers for Leo, SPB works with 3D acceleration on which it didnt do without the patch!

Seriously, download the trial. Don't just buy it before trying it. I downloaded the trial and instantly loved it, but went off it after a couple of days. I just prefer Sense (we're all different!)
Get the trial first
Good idea Didn't realize it was shareware. I installed it and don't seem to miss anything (that I needed) so can someone please tell me what is not working with SPB Mobile Shell, because obviously I'm either blind or stupid or just don't need the functions that are lost when using SPB vs. Sense.
With HTC HD we could switch between the interface without disabling either. But with Sense it's impossible, I tried all I could and when I switched to SPB, Sense came automaticaly back after launching any apps. So the solution is installing SPB and deleting the shortcut SPB which is in Windows/Start and then go to the settings and Today and then you choose Windows Today and not Sense, then you can launch SPB mobile shell.

The program places a link in root/windows/Start Menu/Programs.
If you have a ROM in another language than English, the folder 'Start Menu' may be named otherwise. E.g. in Dutch it is called 'Startmenu/Programma's'.
Solution: copy the link to the appropriate start folder.
After the move or copy you 'll find the program in Start.

Hello everyone,
Here it is the shell everyone want. It's a trail version.
Just install it from your pc to your HD and have fun.
http://rapidshare.de/files/46782177/SpbMobileShell3_setup.exe.html
use this link to download it.
Have Fun.
Don't thank me but some other guys who made it possible.............
I want to but i'm not a developer. I'm going to try but i need some help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If anyone could help send me some mail.
Well,
I haven't tried any of the programs like a mobile shell because I was happy with the TF3D. And I guess that it wil be that way because when the program was installed and I wasn't happy with it, I uninstalled it.
After that the TF3D didn't respond anymore. No manilla files could be deleted (I searched some threads here) and nothing would work. Lucky for me I used a ROM update so i didn't lose much after the hard reset i've done, but still.
Any one who has the same problem after the uninstall????
This is far the most beautiful application I have used on my phone.Fully tweakable.You can add anything you want as a widget,move,make smaller or larger etc.
Multiple screens.Pro layout or plain.Backround wallpapers.You can use any SPB as a plugin and so much more that I don't know where to begin.
Anyway you must try it out.

How can that be?
Did you install it?
If not then do so and find out for yourself that it is a "trial" version.
SPB allows almost all their software to be used on a trial basis for 15 days before purchase.
THIS IS NO DIFFERENT.
The only thing I can see that might be an issue is that its not relaeased for commercial download yet.
If you want to post please do so, but please make sure what you post is accurate

been waiting for this!
Exellent app!!
Thank you!
i wonder were this comes from cause this app isnt available for download on the spb site. anyway, will give this beta a go and see whats up maybe try some skins.

Hi
I am using this and it is great!
I first tried it yesterday om WM6.1 and after install the background was black in professional layout.
today I installed WM6.5 and the background is blue.
Does anybody know how to change this to black?
Click on Launcher, then click on righthand bottom soft button (one that has a check pattern). Tools, theme and choose colour from there.
I tried this and also tried pointui 2 and bell ui. I always go back to manilla. Love it so. Better imo.
when it is finally out, having free upgrade for spb mobile 2.x users is wishful thinking right?
has anyone noticed, there is no today plugin in this version of mobile shell??? i got kinda used to it!
official version release is now available
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pocketpc-software/mobileshell/
SPB Mobile Shell can be ran from the SD Card !!!! Saves humongous space.
Use SKTools' Move Folder Function to move the entire SPB Mobile Shell folder to your SD Card, but be sure to kill all processes first, otherwise, it won't allow you to move anything.

Definitely a good move by SPB
Been using TF3D on Energy Warhark ROM for my Raphael. I like TF3D now that it works (in the non-stock ROM). But - I miss today screen on WM. Specifically - I need to see my tasks list often and I also like SPB insight runing. Anyone know how to switch fast between manila and WM Today w/o tediously going to setting tab? Or better yet, a tweak for manila for tasks tab?
what you can do is find the "search" link on top and use it.
Look for Manila Detacher. There's a newer app like it in the raph software forum, but I can't remember the name. There's also the Manla Today Tab, but it may not work on that version of Manila.

Second Today is another ap.
You can configure it to run TF3D and set one of your soft keys to Second Today and you can toggle between interfaces.
I run this also in conjunction with SPB Mobile Shell, on the other soft key just to show off....

Hi
Ive got a TD2, running Tess 3.3
My old Nokia N95 had an extremely useful profile called Meeting. It basically rang once and kept on vibrating. This is very useful in the office. My TD2 can't do this.
Is there any way that this can be done through a setting, or is there a CAB available, or is someone willing to write a CAB like this
Thanks guys

Thanks for the quick reply, but I dont find Mobile Shell quite as nice as TF3D 2.1 (even the new Mobile Shell 3.5) Also a high battery drain, or is that just me
I guess its down to a personal preference. I was hoping for a CAB installation
G-Profile, a free app by Ageye has quite a few options concerning phone profile. Maybe you can have a look at it.
Look here.
Hope this helps.

..you don't really need a tool for this. Its a simple change in the registry. Have a look here and here

see the attachement
thank you so much for your help

if it makes you any problems maybe you should check other programs you are using. =)
I can also say that on the first time I installed the 3 cabs it did not work.don't know why..but after uninstalling,soft reset and reinstalling it worked ^_^
The shortcuts are in settings->system
Hi, I'm Xdalover on the Modaco Forum (and others)...
I've been using the three cabs for ages, without any problem on WM 6.1 and now WM 6.5 (and I have about a hundred apps on my TG01!)
I agree that this solution it's quite ugly, and would be cool having an unique SRS WOW cab. Meanwhile, it works, but in some cases people has had some problems (resets or Sleeping Beauty effect).
My advice:
1) Full backup before testing them
2) Install the tree cabs in the right order
3) Soft reset after each cab
SRS WOW it's a luxury jewel of the sound enginery. I've recovered the pleasure of listening to music with earphones!. Try the Jazz profile (Wow!!)
By the way, our TG01 has a high sound quality thanks to its specific Qualcomm chipset.
Enjoy!
Btw which player are you using?
Thx
srs WOW!
Thanks for your repleys to that question.
Rigth now I have installed the 3 cab's in my device some hours ago. After every cab a soft-reset. No problems since that and a great sound quality in coreplayer and mplayer.
Caused by that in my device I never hat sound problems during calls (finger crossing for that), anybody can tell something about improvement off call quality after instaling srswow?
And also I'm interessted in knowledge about srsVIP+, no-one tryed it yet?
regards to you
german 21840 6.5.1, spb ms 3.5.3, coreplayer, navigon 7.4, mobipocket and a lot of software more in the device

My daily choice is Pocket Player, because of its great interface, embebbed Lyrics Viewer, superb Crossfade that match perfectly with SRS WOW, Upnp plugin, and so on....
But my favourite has been and it still is a nice (and rare) piece of software called 40iplay. It's very difficult to find it on these days. This app has the best Reverb and bass boost never seen (listen). It's a pity that it's only VGA and it's volume control doesn't work on TG01 , but 40iplay & SRSWOW are, for me, the best experience on HI-FI Music with Pocket PC.
Many thanks to you, I own you 1 BIG beer... I'm pretty sure I can find the mentioned apps, I'm a big music listening fan looking for
