Search the Windows Mobile Themes forum. There are several posts dealing with Mobile Shell.

Thanks, but I have already done. thanks again

What do you mean by "now screen plugs"? There are several threads on Mobile Shell. These tell how to change your background on both life style and pro screens. So I don't understand exactly what you are wanting to change?

where the clock and the weather shows the screen is always grey. and if i go to Settings to customize Now Screen it tells me that there are no plug-ins installed. And i have another prob. yesterday my calendar dissapreared from the screen. I removed the app and reinstaled it, but it's the same. I do't know what else to do. Thanks

Post I780 today Screen

Hi All,
I780 Screen is a little bit small than other PDAs so demand appropaite choice of Pulg ins for today screen - to show more info.
Here is my screen as of now....
Something interesting: Deletion of below bar to add some more space in today scrren. Please post your today screen.
hi may i ask, what did u do to get the news? i wish to have them too.
For news I use SPB insight...
Currnetly I have downloaded relavga so today also changed a lot...I will post that soon...
But where are other I780 Users?? We wanna see how others configured their today screens so please post.
I don't really like busy today screens - so mine is pretty vanilla:
Hi where can dl this pretty vanila? Thanks.
I'm old fashioned.
Off topic: Does anyone of you use any kind of TouchFlo on i780? No 3D cubes or iPhone like apps but just scrolling any system screen using fingers (like the new Opera Mobile 9.5).

It's pretty straight forward:
1) get a HTC home plug-in of your choice - I use the HTC Home Idiamond (you can get the .cab in the hacking and development forum).
2) UITweaker - change the menu bars to black
3) Select the calender and task items in settings.
That's it!

I tried touchflo but couldn't get it to work - I use pocketCM with a black theme and that works well with my current today screen.
Some of the themes work that goes on in the hacking/development forums is amazing but it's just too much hard work for me!
Oh two other MUST-HAVE apps for i780 users -
Slide2unlock - 100X better than using the built in lock and again fits into the black and white theme I'm going for.
S2P - great media player from same developer than works well with s2unlock.
Anyone know how to remap the softkeys - I want the Calendar one to be mapped to opera.

I use
1. Resco file explorer 2008, it's a touchflo scroling application.
2. Ulimate Launch
3. SPB Mobile Shell - with realvga
Fortunately there's an app that works: FTouchSL. But it's not free...

I think the trial version is free with no time limit. There are some excluded features compared to the registered version though I understand.
I use Ultimate launcher with the HTC homescreen plugin. Best solution ever.

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
boogey
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..
-Matthew
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)

Getting rid of 'start' from title bar

I use ilauncher which allows you to put icons for running progs in the title bar.
To free up space in the bar I would like to remove the 'Start' written beside the windows icon.
Anyone know a way to do this?
Thanks
no way apart from using wisbar advanced or other shell replacements
I heard that some guys do it... go and ask
I cant remember exactly but ask to Joshkoss yes the Moderator from hermes he was trying to do it on winmo 6.1 or 6.5 i cant remember exactly.

Hmm...
Thanks for the reply, but I assume that Wisbar and other shell aps are only a pretty wrapper for a set of registry changes, no?
I had heard some tell that you could manage it by changing the title bar text to the same color as the title bar (text is still there, but invisible) using SKTools or UITweaker, but I couldnt seem to get it to work.
Anyone have any thoughts on how this approach might be managed?

SPB TIME Integration

Is there a way to integrate SPB Time instead of the HTC Alarm?
What about phone suite, anyone managed to get integration in sense GUI

No.
But i think SPB Time integrates with WP.
what do you mean wp?
Well, there is a way to integrate G-Alarm, so why not Spb Time? Their 3.0 version is quite nice, by the way.
+1
I must say that I am pretty amazed by the interface of version 3.
Would be great to have it linked with the Sense Home menu.
Anyone managed to do it?
It did work on my Touch HD but not in HD2, so I have now given up completely. I was able to get bits of it to work like phone filtering but it was just too much grief and the today bit keep on being greyed-out.
Now moved over to Magi Call and it is so much better, does calls and sms and I so wish that if SPB bring out a new version that they take a look at this program and try and better it if they can.
Spb time on home screen
M currently using SPB TIME directly from home screen. when i press alarm button it automatically takes me to spb time app, u just need to install cookie's home tab and u can edit alarm in registry.
cheers

it´s written in the post already: install Cookies Home Tab. With it instaled you can select any appication to start when clicking to the clock of your Home Tab
use CHT
then in cht Editor > Application
change alarm +/- clock to Spb
Thanx for the replies guys,but this method only opens up the alarm set screen,it doesn't directly open SPB Time itself which is what I'm after (from the home screen rather than using a quicklink)
Edit : I stand corrected I didnt add the clock to the application list,that did the trick cheers.
I can get CHT to link to SPB alarm and it will open it up, but it main tab doesn't show any alarms set. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Will
just do it thru CHT editor..applications duh

I do it thru CHT editor. It will link the home tab shortcut to SPB alarm, but the alarms don't show up on the home tab.

yes, it works 100% in my case. I´m using it since several months. As told above I´m using it with CHT 2.0. Just link it with CHTEditor

if you just need to edit homepage shortcuts it may be a better solution to run CHT 1.6.1, it's lghter and needs less resources than CHT 2.
SPB Mobile shell is another good option, it will show on homepage your spb time alarms
