I´ve thoroughly searched the forums but couldn´t find a clue to this issue:
I´d love to have all days with upcoming appointments marked in a different color on the SpB Mobile shell Main screen (instead of having those days marked with bold typo, 'cause the bold typo isn´t really good to see). Does anybody know if there is registry fix or something to make this possible?
Thanks!

I looked around and searched google and didn't find anything about this, so forgive me if its already been answered.
basically, I can't set my left Softkey. the right one I can, but not the left. I can change the settings for both in SPB Mobile Shell but after some time the left key changes back from whatever I set it to, to Calendar.
I'm running WM5, the Cingular 2.15 ROM, and have SPB PocketPlus, Mobile Shell, tenGo Thumb, and a few other non-OS related programs like Skype.
Is there another place where the softkeys can be set that might be overriding the SPB Mobile Shell settings?
Any help would be appreciated.
I reflashed and noticed the problem didn't occur until I turned on PPT.
I even tried using two different softkey .cpls that I found online.
But nothing, no matter what I do, after a few minutes, it goes back to Calendar!
Help!
hello hello!
im new around here, so apologies if this has been asked before, ive done a looooad of looking and couldnt find anything, so..
ive just purchased spb mobile shell, and love it! but i was wondering if there was any way to change the names of the menus (for instance instead of 'Contacts' i could rename it to 'Phone Book' etcetera..) that appear as the buttons on the bottom taskbar?
cheers

you should try the spb forum, though i doubt they would give an answer
thats what i thought too!
i had a tentative poke around the registry to see if i could do it through there, but i dont think i can (though, im more of a novice to this sort of thing anyway )
its a shame because its a lovely piece of kit for the phone, i just want that extra kick of customisation!

find softkey applet.
mate, absolutely top notch advice
i guess it helps knowing all the terminology a bit better!
edit: although in other menus (from the now screen for instance, softkey names remain the same!)
Rustynash,
A simple but effective tool called TWEAKS2K2 will allow you to do what you are asking to. See this link for further details. http://www.tweaks2k2.com/
Another app that will allow you to change the names is SKTools.

What you need to look for is: SoftKeyAppletEx.cpl
This is free and a must have! Drop the file in you windows folder and you will notice an extra option in your settings (might have to do a soft reset).
i appreciate all the advice, but whilst these methods are good enough to alter the today screen softkey names, it doesnt go to change the softkeys when theyre in anyhting other than the today screen (in MS for instance, the now screen still shows 'spb menu' when ive tried to alter it to 'menu')
any ideas?

That is because of the program. I do not think there is away to remove spb menu on the now screen.
Hi everyone,
the question is simple as you can see on the headline.
I'm testing the trial version of Pocket Informant 8 and that program is great. Nice usabalitiy and functions.
But I only use the SE Panel 2, that one with a monthly calendar, clock, to-do etc. not the main Panel. The problem here is, that PI8 would not fully integrate on that panel. Only the contact list works well, but I use a shortcut. If I would go on the monthly view, the X1 kicks me to the normal calendar.
Does someone know how to make it? I had activate PI8 as the standard calendar as well, but no use. :/
use the SoftKeyApplet.cpl and change the left softkey to PocketInformant
(google for the applet)
Not working

In that case the calendar on the panel screen as well as the agenda items still refer to the old WM mobile agenda. Or am I doing something wrong?
Nobody knows how to solve this?

Nope u'r right, only the softkey for the calendar is then for PI, but the panel buttons are still the old winmob calendar.
Didn't found out anything until now, hope we can get help, I really like the calendar and have no idea how to change the registry savetly.^^
I use PI8 extensively and am thinking of getting an X1 so gonna bump this in the hope that someone has a solution.
thanks!

The only solution I was forced to use is to disable them... they take too long to load anyway, and functionality is limited.
Use the free SPB Mobile X panel instead; on their forums there is a free plugin download, that integrates it with PI 8.

It isn't fully integrated on mine.
I use the SPB mobile panel and have also downloaded the Pocket Informant (PI) plugin from Spb. Now the Calender correctly loads the PI calender but the contacts tab on the spb shell still directs to the win mob contacts page
Anyone found a way to integrate the PI contacts to the 3rd tab for contacts on the Spb mobile panel ?

I think the original WM Today Screen is the best.
It is very flexible and you can add any plugin u want.
Just put some plugins and you are good to go.
I really dont understand why many people overlook the functionality of the Today Screen which can get anything done in one screen. Unlike TF3D, SPB Shell, or the X Panel which have to scroll pages.
Hi brother's!
So I have look for the internet, and I don't remember but I see a img like the today on WM6.5 with the weather is on the list, and have clouds and more 4 days in line.
So i create this topic to everybody, help other persons have Diamond (like me) and use WM 6.5
So I need know somethings.
1. I don't like the msn weather, How I can use the wheather in the today ?
2. How I put just one soft button on the screen, just CONTACT's or PHONE, cause mine's appear SecondToday / Contacts
How I change this?
3. What is the pixel of the screen on WM6.5? cause mine backgrounds don't fix in correctly in the screen?
Its all, please post your reply's!
C ya!
as i mention...i need help for iit..i couldnt find any good answer for this...
are you still using the original SPB shell? I suggest you follow instruction in this forum to strip down your phone and install the new SPB shell 3.5.5, it is much more stable then the "panel version"
I forgot how the original was with MR2, but i guess it is similar, just hit the right corner menu button, and you should see change background option there.
Beware that you cant change the background for Professional View, it is always black by default.
