Hi all!
I am almost done getting my Today screen looking the way I want it - but I need one last item. I need a simple Analog Clock - nothing terribly fancy, and I don't need any additional features to go with it. Just a clock that I can sit on my today screen....
Googled and didn't find anything (SBP time, but it has WAY more stuff that what I am looking for)...
Anyone know of such a plug-in?
Thanks!
never fear, for i shall create one!
vijay555 has it. As he mentioned, he has not package it..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39417&highlight=
I'll try to have another think about packaging it up. Problem is, when I release it, someone will want to skin it, or resize it, or change the position etc. It's the follow up that puts me off releasing it :? VJEphemeris is customised for my use, and is built on a more generic skinning engine I'm working on, but I'm working on improvements incrementally.
Mention some ideas and me or whoever else releases one can try to implement it.

Vijay - I went and looked at the other thread, and the clock you have on your today screen is pretty much exactly what I was looking for...
As far as ideas go - I'd love to have it transparent....
I was on the bus yesterday heading to a Bulgarian folk music festival. Long story, but also a long journey, so I spent some time thinking about the plugin.
As I said, VJEphemeris is an experiement in skinning and a general "do everything I can put into it" plugin, but unfortunately due to time pressures (pun intended) I've not been able to work on it for a while.
However, I spent some time thinking about the plugin. It already does transparency and stuff; I guess it'll need a date line as well. I'll give it a go, again subject to time pressures... but I also said that about 6 months ago

Vijay, that would completely rock!
Thanks muchly!
I agree with kehlert, we need a small lightweight simple clock, about the size of the one on your magician post Vijay.
Just as it is would be great, but floating and selectable opaque/transparent would be nice as well.
I'll bet there are a few of us waiting with bated breath
Will wait meekly though Vijay

update
I acutally, before posting, sent SPB a question regarding the Time app - if it had a Today plug-in... They say in the *next* version it will, but not the current one....
So close to being set with my today screen...

There is a standard analog clock. On my vario, if i press and hold on the clock, it asks me if i want digital or analog. I must admit it is a little small and probably not what you are after.

Yup - *way* small (was aware of that from previous PPC)
Thanks, tho!
you can use WisBar Advance Desktop from Lakeridge software
you can make any png file as your clock
it is very nice program
something like this?

Installing as I type....
<time elapses>
Wow - that's pretty much what I was looking for, except for the multiple clocks...
ViJay - if you're still working on the single clock, I am still interested - this just gives me something workable for now...
Thanks JwY!!
you're welcome
i just remembered this thread when i came across that so it was perfect timing
Hi all. As it is a recognised bug in Spb Shell that the Spb Menu does not display correctly in Landscape only, from a cold boot until you have navigated through some of its menu's (then it works perfectly until the next soft-reset), I was wondering if anyone had come across a simpler solution to this current problem.
Has anyone else experienced a slowing down of the O/S with it installed or memory leakage?
I 've looked around at previous threads and other sites, but I've either missed it or it doesn't exist.
I'm running version 1.0.0, Build 2632
Is there a newer version available? If so, can someone please provide a link as I cannot find anything at Spb's site.
Cheers
C'mon people. I know I'm not the only one to experience this as I have read a long thread about this on the developers website. It's just sometimes us end-users find ways around these types of issues and I was hoping this was one such time......No takers? OK, I'll simply report back the solution for all the shy ones once I have found it myself.

you are not the only one, i have this problem too, that's why i disable the SPB menu, i am now only using the SPB Mobile Shell Today plugin. if i am not wrong, once you get your menu working or eventually load up, all your sound is gone.
I have heard other people having this problem too, so until next version is out, i will disable the menu for now.
Wow. I didn't realize before. I have that prob to..
Ha ha me too. Didn't realise the sound issue was down to the menu though. Thanks for that Wu.

glad to help, haha, you don't know what you have miss. I was surprise at first why my phone doesn't ring.
My mVoice software suffers from a similar bug. I think I had another program that did this also but I don't remember which it was. Long since deleted it.
My camera doesnt work when mobile is running,it just comes up blank.
I did have the same issue, however after installing true VGA, i no longer suffer from this issue; works perfectly.
what???????????????????????????
how did you get mobile shell to work with truevga?
several people including me don't get mobile shell to work (at least not the today plugin).
after installing i can't go to the today screen anymore. it gets stuck there. i need to go back to vga mode and uninstall it or hardreset.

Yes, your quite right, you need to take the main spb shell today plugin out. However, the other plugins like world time and contacts etc can still remain. It is quite stable....
The problem is caused by the ATI videocard. It is not correctly supported bij SPB. Weeks ago I was in contact with SPB and I showed them this problem. The first 7 or 8 times that you use the menu nothing happens. At that point all te graphic memory get flushed. After the is no driver buffer memory left, it will show the icons. But at that point the camera and the sounds will not work anymore until you reset your device.
Bloody ATI/AMD...they suck!!!

This ATI Imageon chip/driver is becoming the bain of my life!! Video performance is lacking due to it, and now it affects other applications and sound too.
I have been complaining about ATI since September 2006, specifically the 2282 Imageon technology found in the Hermes, Trinity and now the Athena. That's a lot of unsupported devices floating around out there. According to Corecodec, ATI haven't exactly been playing ball with them either...and they are developers!
Maybe if enough of us complain (large petition) to HTC, they can get ATI/AMD to get a fix together that will work on all Imageon based devices..WM5/6 . After all, HTC must be shelling out a fair few dollars to them...so if they will listen to anyone, it most likely will be HTC. Enough already...wish I had stuck to my guns and stayed away from any more devices that are Imageon 'disabled'. lol.
P.S. Oh by the way...if Spb haven't or cannot fix this by their next release, Spb Shell is coming off my Ameo and I will be demanding a FULL refund on the basis that it does not work as advertised on my WM5 device.
P.P.S Another good reason is that if Spb don't get it fixed by the next release, it's probably that they can't as they will need tech assistance from ATI/AMD and based on their track record with Corecodecs coreplayer, I'd say the possibility of this happening is slim to none. Just my experience over the last 8 months.

thought you maybe had a solution for this.
i love the mobile shell today plugin, don't need the menu or start screen. so the most important doesn't work.
i've already written this in their forum, they don't seem to care, said it's the realvga resolution which is causing the problem (i should uninstall realvga... right, cause mobile shell is so much more important, man).
well maybe, but i don't think it's a lot to ask for a realvga today plugin which would work fine (as every other plugin does too), esp. as one of the devolpers has a vga device.
quite poor support (i love the sbsh support who help you in every way they can and very fast). i'm not a fan of spb developing/developers, that's why i don't use their products anymore and won't buy new ones.

That's exactly what I've done. Disabled the menus and just use the Now screen. It's annoying 'cos I used it extensively on my Wizard.
One of the other problems is that when using Mobile Shell with SPB Diary, quite a lot of the screen is used up so only a days worth of appointments is usually shown.

Still sound issue
Hi there guys. I also had the issue with the sound. Has since uninstalled Spb shell and done a hard reset but sound issue remains. Any help please?
I have the T-mobile ROM with WM5 on. Do any of you have WM6 and where to get it?

this must be the 7th or 8th times i have answer this question......NO, THERE IS NO WM6 YET, it will be out in about 2 months.
If you have done the hard-reset and haven't install any program, and your sound doesn't work, then this is something serious and might not due to SPB shell.
so, spb shell is NOT working on x7500, right?

I'm going to hold of on this until it comes out of beta.. I've spent far too long getting the U1000 tweaked and working perfectly with the right combination of settings and software.
That thread has already achieved 12 pages of replies to the launch, so I figure its going through some teething issues already.
Cheers for the update though - a lot of those new features look extremely tempting!
WA3 beta kicks ass..
I am pleased to say, so far, WA3 beta is a vast leap forward from WA2 in terms of features and functionality. I'm loving it, but there seems to be no option for using anything but the default theme at this moment (correct me if I'm wrong peeps).
I'm loving the option to have shortcuts in the TrayApps.
WA3 is brill even in beta...
I'm very pleased to report that despite the many problems reported on the Lakeridge forums about this beta on various devices, it works perfectly on my Ameo.
I love the feature set on this new version and will definately be investing in this once the official release has made it out the door.
I forgot to take a screen shot of it without soft keys enabled (giving one even more screen real estate - if that's what you like).
But here are a few pics that I did take...and Yes you can use your old favourite WA2 Themes or WA3 Themes if you have any.
Final Word: No problems encountered as yet. Brill. I highly recommend checking this out, as it is way better than WA2.
Note: Be sure to completely uninstall WA2 first and save your Themes folder to somewhere else first (you will be able to install these from wherever you drop them later through WA3 i.e. Start/Settings/Personal/Theme Manager).
Drop us a line if you get stuck.

Haven't noticed a drop in memory usage. It seems snappier than before. Reports from the Lakeridge website are that the memory usage is considerably lower than WA2.
I've also got this up and running with no probs at all on my wife's Universal (T-Mobile MDA Pro) with no ill effects to speak of.
I did delve a bit deeper into memory usage over here: http://www.4winmobile.com/viewtopic.php?p=62542#62542
Wow, that's impressive news. I might totally back up my U1000 tonight and take a leap of faith. But I'm still skeptical. Really looking forward to official release though!
Now that I think about it, I guess I should anyway - as to provide feedback on any bugs!

Hi Mackaby007,
Beautiful pictures you have there. I have been trying this out for a while, but wonder where does your skin come from? It's FANTASTIC looking.
Also, when you press the PROCESS button in the battry pop up, do you get to see the running processes? Mine has nothing there.
Have you tried adding in more applications than one could be accomodated in just one line in the system tray? What happens if you try to have ALL launcheable applications there and run out of space? With applications like SPB pocket plus, you siimply add more tabs. But how about this one? You know what I'm thinking? If it allows all to be launched there, I might just dump my SPB pocket plus and use this to replace it as well as Magic Button.
I much prefer to keep all my applications alive when I press close button. There is really no reason to shut them down, because so doing means than when you need it again, you got to reload from scratch. Imaging reloading Opera Mobile..... It takes forever. So, the way I use me device to to keep ALL frequently used applications alive regardless of whether I press the close button with or without holding it down (I do not want to accidentially close it by holding down too long). If I really want to close it down, currently magic button let me do it be pressing and holding down on the running icon on task bar. I find that with WA3, the process of making an application stay alive when close button is pressed is far too tedious. You need to go to setting>Task>executable, and select the excecutable individually (WA3 works very slowly here unfortunately). Also, choosing to keep it alive still does not prevent me from accidentally closing it when close button is pressed too long. In this regards, I feel that Magic Button's design is far better.
Do you know of a way to suppress the task title all together? My view is that the icon of running task should just be "lighted up" to show it is the current application. Also, we know what application it is anyway by looking at what is staring at you. Why waste the precious real estate on task title?
I like the new ROTATE screen icon, and the ability to show date and time occupyping only one icon space. This is something where magic button should incorporate.
Oh, initially I though that the phone icon will let you click and directly let you use the phone but this is not so. Do yo know of a way to put a real phone task icon on the task bar, so that clicking that icon on the TB will give you access to phone application immediately? The trouble i have is that when phone application is launched, WA5 does not seem to show it on the TB (unlike magic button). I like magic button more in this regard.
Are you using QVGA when you took those screen shots? How does it look in VGA? Would the system tray buttons are far too small? Do you think that if we use VGA and WA3 we could get away from having to use another application such as SPB pocket plus?
One last thing, I could be wrong about this. But I got a distinct feeling that my response time is slower using this rather than Magic Button.
That's a long post, but I'm very interested in your view in the above.
I still cant figure out how to use WAD .. lol... argh! Im st0opit.
Anyone wanna help me out with it? lol.

Hi eaglesteve.
Thanks for the compliment. I do like nice screens and preferably unclutterred. Anyway....the WA2 skin can be purchased through Nacashco Designs here: http://www.nascasho.com/Skins-Sub-InD_05.html
and the background image I found trolling around on the deviant art website under; 3 Dimensional. (see attachment)
Q & A (I'll do my best)
Q1. Also, when you press the PROCESS button in the battry pop up, do you get to see the running processes? Mine has nothing there.
A.1 Yes I see all the running processes and am able to stop any one of them.
Q2. Have you tried adding in more applications than one could be accomodated in just one line in the system tray?
A2. Yes, but it won't display any more than 15 icons from my experience. No point in addind any more as you cannot scroll through them (in the hope that you will see the other shortcuts you added previously). That's a good point to take up with Chris at Lakeridge, as he mat be willing to incorporate this into WA3 as it's still in beta.
Q3. Do you know of a way to suppress the task title all together? My view is that the icon of running task should just be "lighted up" to show it is the current application.
A3. Yes mine is currently set up this way too. I only want to see an icon of running apps.** I think under the 'Buttons' menu you have to go to 'Assignments' and ensure that 'Title' is NOT checked.
Q4. Do yo know of a way to put a real phone task icon on the task bar?
A4. I've added the phone app to the System tray (no need for keyboard anymore ). It's called 'Phone.lnk', but should be a visible icon when you go to choose it.
Q5. Are you using QVGA when you took those screen shots? How does it look in VGA? Would the system tray buttons are far too small? Do you think that if we use VGA and WA3 we could get away from having to use another application such as SPB pocket plus?
A5. I suppose you would call it QVGA (default mode). I tried TrueVGA and whilst it looks great, I don't like that I can hardly see anything. Got good eyesight at the mo and don't want to start straining. 2nd half of your question...Yes I think it's definitely possible, as you'd theoretically fit many more icons in the Tray applet/System Tray. Good thinking Batman! I might have to reconsider TrueVGA just for that!
Q6. But I got a distinct feeling that my response time is slower using this rather than Magic Button.
A6. I've used Magic button in the past and was very pleased with it, but stopped using it once I found that you can close apps properly through WA2. Unlike yourself, I like things properly shut down unless I'm going back to it soon, hence the nice running tasks icons.
Ok that should be about it. I hope I answered most if not all of your questions.
mackaby007 that's a great scren. So let me get this right , i buy the theme and get the backround and then i import it to wa3?
Also how do you replace / remove the default tray icons that come with t-mobile, i used the tray display program but that just removes all tray items. I just want to add the programs that i use
Would SPB diary work with this theme? as i have mine on today screen.
thanks

Hi bashi007. Yes to the first 3 questions. I can't comment on Spb Diary as I've never used it, but I can't see why it should pose a problem.
If you have an Ameo from T-Mobile;
........regarding the system tray...there is a thread already on it...let me go see................
.....aha here it is:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307086
Go to.....Hkey_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\HTC\TrayApplet with a reg editor and delete all the little folders that contain the links for the existing shortcuts (free up some space). Be sure to have the system tray visible again first though, so you can see the changes you have made. If you don't see it, uninstall the Tray applet switching application and reboot.
If you own an X7500/Advantage read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308250 Once you've gotten rid of all your system appointed icons, follow on to the skinning app.
Now try WA3 system tray.
Let us know if you run into probs.
Thanks mackaby007 for your reply, i have a slight problem in that i delete the folders in the tray applet, but it still leaves the icon in the tray.

hi bashi007 what variant of the AThena do you have? If you have the Advantage, you'll have to delete the folders in the HTC Homeplug folder instead or aswell. Then soft reset your device and they should no longer be visible in the system tray.
Thanks for the help, i have Ameo, after soft resetting all seems to work. Great!
i presume i buy the VGA theme from Nacashco Designs.

Hi olegzz.
I can see by your joining date that you are new to this forum, so I will be patient with.
It is generally good practice to read through a thread before asking questions that may have already been asked and or answered.
In this instance no one has asked, but there are only 2 pages to this thread and one glance at the first page would have fully revealed what you asked.
to answer your question nonetheless, it is merely a skin made for Wisbar Advance 2 and is one of hundreds of interchangeable skins. Some of us just happen to like this one.
If you know about these things already I apoligise for my tone. If however you don't, then this might be of real interest to you as it completely changes the look and feel of your WM device.
The screenshots on page 1 of this thread are just 1 example of this. Best to head on over to Lakeridge software (website) to get a clearer picture.
Good luck.

Hey all,
I've seen screenshots of the advantage/U1000 subdisplay having a larger clock etc, being centred and generally having customisations. I have unfortuntely not being able to find out how this is possible.
Is it possible? if so how?
Cheers
Osiris.
when you have the keyboard cover on have you tried jogging the volume control ?
if your talkin bout something other than that then i dont know
Thanks for the reply chief, I was referring to that initially, was surprised when I went to turn it down and the display changed but im sure I saw a Dopod pic with something cooler, nevertheless cheers anyway.
I read in the manual if you have Worldmate installed the sub display will show temp etc is this what you are referring to???
I have the blank tmob wallpaper ? There is a way to change it ?
I installed Worldmate programm but I don't see any new info in Sub/Standby display. I tried volume control but only previous data are available.
Could somebody give me a tip how to activate Worldmate in Sub-display.
Thanks!
Someone might have to shoot off an email to HTC or Worldmate to find out...
i am looking into it also cause i want the weather on my sub display

What a great finding (even it's too late for me).
i shot htc an email yesterday but they have not gotton back to me as of yet and seeing how its the week i guess i will have to wait until monday
I haven't seen anybody who has gotten world mate to work on the subdisplay.
Guessing it might have been something specific to a certain version of worlmate.
Either that or htc people just pulled that one out of their a**es like they always do.
I have tried all avaialbe athena roms except the Tmobile Ameo's and they have shown the same behaviour.
I have contacted worldmate but haven't gotten a response from them yet and dont think I will.

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to keep the battery icon permanently displayed in the Taskbar?... Preferrably just with a Reg Key rather than additional app?...
In WM6.1 on my present device (and also WM5.x on my previous Trinity) the icon disappears as soon as any app is launched and seems only to be displayed in the Today screen.
Its a simple enough thing (I would have thought!) but all my searching has not yielded a viable solution yet!
Anyone help?
Many thanks,

Thanx for the suggestion. I think I know what you're referring to in that app... And I'm pretty sure it doesnt work as expected.
HD Tweak definatly has this option its the first battery option in Tweak you can show or hide It shows in most programs I tested, like Notes, Calculator, Word etc I didnt run Garmin Xt or Opera as I was confident it work why not give it a try you can always delete if not satisfied Right

It doesnt work for me - and pretty sure I've tried this before with same result!
As soon as I start up Calendar, Contacts, Calculator, Notes - any app! - the Taskbar battery icon disappears.
exactly the same problem
tried differents tricks but until now no good result

That's a good suggestion... But its appeared on more than one WM6x ROM and by different Cooks...
I also had the problem on my previous Trinity using WM5.x...
I guess some things just werent meant to be!

Actually ozmoran that's interesting cos your both using the same ROM, Dutty2v9, and yet you say yours works whilst bouya_k says not.
I tried Dutty 3v5 and 3v7, and neither of those worked for me?...

mmmm sure is strange when i get home tonight I will install software so i can take a pic of the screen with excel word calendar etc if you like maybe we can sort it from there
By the way I have Duttys 3.9 it is a wicked Rom a little heavy on battery but performance makes up for it
Oh yeah i noticed bouya_k has the Dusk theme maybe that interferes with it ???
Just looked at my phone again with battery selected to show in HD Tweak, it will show in calender sms etc which are in TF3d
however when i open excel, notes, etc the task does in fact drop the battery Icon and only shows sound, signal icons
So my appologies LoopyLoo you are indeed right.

OK, mate, thanks for confirming that - thought I might be losing the plot a bit there for a while!
Off topic, but I note your liking of the Dutty3v9 ROM. The guy does indeed do some nice ROMs, but there always seemed to be little "features" in it that would be problematic for me. So I gave up after 3v7 and switched to Topix221. After a minimum of personal customisation I have found it very reliable, fast and good battery life.

You could use something like this:

or SBSH ILauncher, which also has a taskbar battery meter always displayed.

Actually I have tried a few roms even a 6.5 but didnt like that, I got on to Duttys after looking at what Crackwhore and Fallen sparten used these guys are pretty much on the ball so I wanted to see what they used.
I will Give topix a go to but I only just flashed from Duttys 3.6 which did have a few probs 3.9 has none for me so far although a little heavy on battery

I didnt really want to install an app to monitor the battery, but iBattery is quite dinky and very much like what you get in WDTask (I think).
Thanks for this "low resource" suggestion!

i came across this problem either. i have a kithchen which can keep the icon in any page. but not in others. i had tried to find clues but failed.
I hav the same problem.. can't get the battery meter back.. Hd Tweak doesn't work
