I installed Pocket Plus 3 yesterday and foudn that it slowed the k-jam down consdierabley. I then tried uninstalling it. Strange thing happened:
Didn't uninstall cleanly, kept asking to soft reset and then tried to uninstall again.
When i cancelled, i found that when I click on the start button, I only see:
today
Pocket MSN
Interactive
Programmes
nothing else!!
Comms & voice dial button can't find the shortcut. phone works but can't access any of the settings or my documents
Tried to:
soft reset: no joy
Hard reset by holding down the comms & voice button and soft reset: no joy
Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks.
I had a similar issue. Pocket Plus wouldn't soft reset, in the end I had to hard reset and install everything again.
I've opted for different software that does the things I like (Wisbar for real close funtions and iLauncher for big icons on the Today screen)
Col
Yep - me too. I had to remove Pocket Plus 3 in the end as it always hung the k-Jam on soft reset.
I have mailed the support guys and they are looking into it.
meantime I am using alternatives as this is a major problem - even more so as I can't find a backup utility that works (Sprite Backup doesn't) and a hard reset means u need to start all over again
Thanks. I had to do a hard reset to get up and going again.
Does anyone know how to enlarge the Ilauncher icons on the today screen so I can access them with my stubby fingers rather than the stylus?
Thanks.
I think the soft reset problem is caused by the safe mode boot facility on SPB. I unchecked that and it soft resets fine.
iLauncher
In settings when you choose shortcuts you have a check box for large icons. Also there is a setting for default large icons.

I must look at these menu's more :wink: Will try that .. Thanks
So is SPB 3 working fine for you now you've unchecked the safe mode?
Mine is working fine!
Have made about 10 softreset in 2 days of 3.0.1
ALL OK! :lol:
yep, tried it now and its fine.
Thanks
third hard reset and i can´t install the pocket plus , on direct installation, or by cab ... nothing
I found the one major slowdown with SPB PP is when you use a memory meter on the today screen (Showing either main memory of CF card etc). When I removed this I noticed an improvement...
well i´ll wait a new version

What about the battery meter? does that make a difference foryou too?
SAFE MODE is tha problem... uncheked it after finish setup and you will be fine 8)
3.0.1 is out now - they say it solves safe mode problem on Wizard

I installed 3.01 and still had to hard reset my k-jam as i couldnt get past the lockups at boot. However, i have installed 3.0.3 (released 14 Oct) and forgot to re-uncheck safe mode before i did a soft reset and it now boots properly with safe mode enabled.

For backup, you can use sunnysoft backup manager. works fine with WM5.
it´s sure ?¿?
backup ?¿?
Hi, i have a prototype of the wizard.
My problem is that i installed spb pocket plus.
Then the wizard refuse too boot.
I cannot make a hard reset, when i hold comm butoon + voie button + soft reset nothing happens.
Anyone have a clue please ?
Just got my JasJar, and I used to have an icon to change soft keys on my Wizard. It's not on this.
Anywhere I can get it, or something similar?
TIA
OK I've changed it to what I want with the demo of tweaks2k2 but I would still like the little icon that does it like many other wm5 devices have if possble.
try this.. install this, softreset, and check ur settings.. hope this helps..
Yep, that's done the trick, thank you
Help guys, for some reason when I load up comm manager it's pretty much transparent. I can vagely see the text over the screen behind but thats it. I can click on the txt and it opens the relevant app but thats it. Is there a way of putting comm manager back on which might fix this?

Mmmm. Unable to help is you do not give us more infos. Which rom? WM5, WM6 ? Which comm manager? Is it the "original" comm manager or did you try to install another one? etc...
Hi thanks for the prompt reply appreciate it. I'm running WM6 with original comm manager, HTC Home - Schen 2.10, the wizard retouched efrost tochflo and SCLPF.
Hope you can help,
Thanks Frazer
Run the CAB file and soft reset of your device.
Having this skin, you can choose type and quantity of active functions. You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.x to do it.
This solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:
On/Off Button - for standard Diamond skin
Large Button - for Kaiser or DiamondStyle skins.
Buttons names will be displayed in your language.
In Dimond Style skin you can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.
In Kaiser skin - 10 buttons (from 12).

Many thanks Balu888 and Nemos (4pda.ru) for drawings updated.
Thanks! I never quite liked having to compromise some options and decide which 6 to include in the original Comm Manager.
Now I can have them all!!!!
Many thanks
Thanks. Nice to see all the communication options all at once rather than a limit.
Now all we need is for one of our skinning masters to come up with a more diamond looking interface and this will be really cool.
EDIT: Just noticed there is no option to turn off 3G!
Can this be made a tab in TF3D?
I renewed the graphic files (Look in the preview), but i´m not able, to make a cab out of these files. I don´t have the knowledge in this way. If someone want´s to make this job, i post here the changed graphics. But at 1st it would be good, to get a feedback.
To integrate it in TF3D, you can use the Softkey Changer. With this program you can replace one tab of the homescreen from Programs or else to Comm Manager.
Is it possible to make a 3G button. I use it a lot to save battery.
New idea
Here I have tried to make skin in Diamond CommMamager style .
Having this skin , you can choose type and quantity of active functions from 7 to 10 (12 accessible). You can edit the register or use Schaps Advanced Configration Tool v 3.2 to do it. Now you don't need to change buttons pictures as in Kaiser CommManager.
BUT I haven't standard icons for buttons InternetSharing and VOIP to finish this work.
Send me, pls... who has...
I´ve got it to run...with some tricks. But i don´t like, that this module don´t recognize, that there are masked .png-files. So all, what should be invisible, is now white. But the functions are okay. It integrates itself into the Comm Manager in the Connection-Tab. But not in the new seperate Comm Manager tab, that´s a problem.
Also there are little graphic errors, which are not in the original graphics.

Really like the concept here. Might need some work on cleaning up the images and maybe adding a little depth. Great work though.

Check the registry keys, for Diamond standard must be:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
SupportedFunctions=6
DisableButtonText=3
For Kaiser:
SupportedFunctions=10
DisableButtonText=2
And soft-reset, of course...
Or use Advanced Config \CommManager: choose your 6 function and On/Off Buttons.
i tried more commanager and now i have nothing !!!

You mean found the solution to delete it and install the original Comm Manager, or found the solution to make it work ? If the answer is the second one, please share it with us !!!!!
This is very nice thank you.
will this replace the existing comms manager? I'd like to have both on my device and remove the new one without problems if I decide.

No, this solution don't replace the existing CommManager. You can use both. Use the Advavanced Config to choose between skins:
On/Off Button - for standard Diamond skin
Large Button - for Kaiser and DiamondStyle skins
in future I want make default skin available in Diamond too.
Diamond Style Comm Manager 10 Button
Drawings are updated - many thanks Nemos (4pda.ru), missing icons are added. But without album orientation.
You can use 7 to 10 buttons (from 12).
WARNING! When you use 10 buttons, place the Sound/Vibrate button in last line for better performance.
Looks great... just two question :
- only for russian ?
- is it possible to uninstall it and go back to default settings ?
But it would be nice to have more than 6 items on the diamond !

I have adapted the HD 18 buttons Action Screen, with Wifi and Bluetooth status indicator, to the Rhodium bluetooth stack.
All credit goes to Wedge666 (thread here), to posters in his thread for customisation and of course to first Action Screen developper (I would quote him if I knew. Anyone knows? Or was it adapted from a HTC application?).
As in the original from Wedge666, you trigger with Manila Home tab right soft key, and you can configure program to make it running in background if you wish (quicker?). You have no confirmation message on shut down or reset.
You get advice about installation and basic customisation explanation in the HD thread.
Thierry
EDIT : on Roms with Action Screen already installed, it may be difficult to completely uninstall this version. And you need to apply the fix here.
Thanks thierry2064,
Will try it.
Greetings from Lille
You are welcome!
I attach here the version I use now, black and white except for the network status indicator, plain black background. Links to Pocket informant, Opera Mobile, Resco Explorer, Tomtom.. but this is easy to change, as explained in the HD thread. I may personalize it later (the favorite people button is a "heart" game card now).
Thierry
not showing up
i followed instructions for this by installing mortscript then .net.
nothing showed up on home tab.
the softkeys phone(L) and menu(R) still remain from rom .
im using HTCSense2.5 Landscape|Rhodium_AF|WM65 23529 by ark on my att tilt 2.
so by using total commander i see that it is intalled and the config icon is in start menu and folder in windows.
but how do i make a softkey for this or shortcut or something?
help?
Did you reset ? By the way if you had the cab in the third post (NC for no color), pease do not install, because I forgot some blutooth files... I will upload corrected version later.
help
i soft reset after every step.
action screen works, but i had to find link via total commander.
only action screen config had link in start up menu.
i copied paste action screen link to start up menu via total commander but link was not pretty and i dont know how to change its icon.
also, neither the left or right soft key changed after installation as mentioned in my previous post.
any help is much appreciated.
could it be the rom i am using?
i used the color actionscreen cab
If you feel like to change the registry (take care, if you do some wrong change you could have to hard reset), you can go to HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila
then change HomeRSKPath to \Windows\ActionScreen\LauchAction.exe and HomeRSKText to Action. Afetr reset you should see "Action" on the right low corner of the Home tab of Manila. If it does not work I do not know, maybe you shopuld ask on your Rom thread...
thanks
thanks for your advice.
doing regedit is alil beyond me bcuz i am new to this.
i still appreciate your effort.
Here is the version I use now. I added text, and warnings for Power Off and Reset. Customized to my needs, you have to see explanations in the HD thread to customize it to yours.
Here is a customization tutorial : http://www.techparaiso.com/customiz...how-to-assign-it-as-power-button-application/
I do not use Photoshop, the freeware Paint.net does the basic work. The icons could be nicer, if you make or find some nice icons, please share the background and the icons so that we can use it!
Can you please work on setting the action screen to the power button of TP2 instead? thank you for your great work...

Actually I configure the Home button to launch Action Screen, with this excellent application : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
You can do the same wih Power Button long press.

Close HTCActionScreen.exe manually.

Hi charlieb620
You need to close the Action Screen process manually using a task manager like dotfred's or schap's. You're looking for HTCActionScreen.exe.

tried a reset and it wont let me uninstall
when i try to overwrite or uninstall i get this message. i dont want to hard reset but i think i might. cause now my phone freezes when i go to my action screen. and yes i have mortscript and sdk installed. i cant do anything. i get that message. when i kill process i go back to try to uninstall and will just stay there iin programs list
I am wondering if it is not a problem with another version of action screen installed on the Energy ROM. Can you see another one in "remove program" ? Maybe this 18 button action screen is not compatible with the Energy Rom (I have a stock Rom).
Rename the extension

Hi charlieb620
Try using Total Commander to rename the extension of HTCActionScreen.exe to .ext or something like that. If it let's you, restart the device and you should be in business.
