1. is it possible to get on default SEX1 spb shell, task, calendar be visible on the main screen? ( i mean, when i have something like birthday in my calendar, that on the screen is name and years like in the other panels). Try, didn't find...
2. Have a excel file, with some calculator program in it, and office mobile want open it, password protected said. But i sure didn't put password when i made it. Any advise?
Hope, you want find my questions stupid, and thanks for help...
What do you want to do exactly with the Mobile Shell? Add Calendar/Tasks?
yes, i want to when i have something in my calendar like birthday, meeting, that it shows me on the screen that day. It shows in others panels, in S2U2, but only not in SPB, and i use it most...
Thanks...
Im from Croatia, so my English maybe litlle bad...
At the bottom of Mobileshell, you have the tree tabs. The middle one contains Calendar, Clock and Profiles. It shows me the things I've organized today. I do not think it is possible to get this information in the first tab. At leats not with this version of Mobileshell. Future versions may allow it
Thanks,
that is problem, in the middle tab where is calendar, weather, to me doesn't show what i had organized, only displays when alarm is set....

Hello,
First, sorry for my English.
I'm searching for a small today application which informs me about missed call and new messages.
I used to have HTC home but I don't need all its informations.
Thanks.
rlToday and a good theme
phone alarm.
I'm also searching...is there just a simple message / mail / call Today plugin (with nothing else)?
I'd also like something like this and haven't really found anything I really like, a Simply plug-in similar to the HTC home plug-in but light on resources that displays missed calls, voice mail, txt messages, and emails, and when you click on each one it launches the application associated with it.
Use battery status with one of the many custom themes, and only choose the messaging row (free) or, I use, SPB Phone Suite, a couple of good tools and it displays all the good stuff (about $20)
Not sure if it shows missed calls, but check out HTC Plus. There are several versions floating around but this post has a picture as well as a link. You can search for HTC Plus to see if there are any more current versions.
BTW, I use Mobile Shell...it's not free but it absolutely rocks!

And there is another one earlier in the thread, think it was called BennTech Home 1.0.
OSPlus 2.3 has an option to put a last call plugin on your today screen. I used to use it and if you don't have a task manager it also does that as well. But you don't have to.
THANKS GUY BUT WERE CAN I FIND OSPlus 2.3
I was looking for exactly this too a couple of days ago. I made mine out of the bottom part of Focaldesign's rltoday skin, wich can be found here.
You just need to install rltoday, put the focaldesign in the rltoday folder, and get rid of most of the code in the skin.xml file. You'll also need to edit the todayheight and some of the x and y values in the skin.xml. I got it looking right just by trial and error.
I wrote a plugin for the Today screen called PeraCount that does just what you are asking for on a single today line. You can find it at perasite.com
bump! sorry to bring this from the dead but id like to know if there is anything plugin like described in 1st post. buttoned count of missed calls, sms, email, vmails. ive used batterystatus, rltoday, phonealarm, HTC home, MS 2 and 3, winterface, inesoft phone, phonex. they all seem to have too much that is not needed or interface is too ugly.
just want a nice simple buttoned plugin. i guess kind of like lg prada plugin but instead of having the rest of the buttons for programs and such, make it for each notification.
Hello!
I've a new Samsung SGH-i620 smartphone (Win Mobile 6 with qwertz keyboard and without touchscreen).
I'm searching a today screen which displays a preview (subject) of emails I arrive via MS Exchange push.
I had this feature at my Blackberry and I would like to have it on my Samsung as well...
Any ideas? I've searched a lot but found nothing helpful...
Thanks a lot!
hm, I don't know if you can install it..but SPB Diary allows you to actually look at the text message or email before you open it
I'd look into the Manilla threads ...

Why would you send a noob with a non HTC device (not even Touchscreen) to the Manila threads?
The next thing you have is this poor guy adding a post to the already almost 1700 posts in that thread asking "I did everything in the instructions and I can't turn on my device..."
@El-Chico,
While I have no knowledge of what you are looking for, in order to save you hours upon hours of searching (and quite possibly ruining your device), do not take anything from the Manila 2D threads.
Moreover, unless SPB has a version of SPB Diary for Smartphone, I would not even try to install it either if I were you.
Hi and thanks for your replys!
SPB Diary seems exactly to be the right software - but it won't work on Windows Mobile Standard :-( I tried to install it but it abordes the installation process.
I've searched a bit and found "PocketBreeze" - this can show the subjects of mails on the today screen as well.
But - it works only with touchscreen devices!
I'm affraid, that there is no chance to get what I want for the moment - or do you have an idea, if it is possible to install one of the programs "by hand" and use them?
Hi,
The only thing I miss from the regular WinMo interface is the fact that TF3D does not show what are my tasks or a todo list.
I'd love to have a tab show up in TF3D that would let me see my tasks (and their due times, if I add that), ways to add a new tasks, assign times to them, categories, reminders, etc. If it could sync with an online service like Remember The Milk(.com), that'd be even better.
I think an app like that is very important for productivity fanatics. Having a tab in the TF3D would reduce the need for anyone to explicitly call an app (like RTM has an app, but you need to open it to see tasks) and having a tab telling you at all times what your tasks/todos are would be amazing!
Now, I've searched for an app like this and couldn't find one. But if there is a TF3D app like this and I didn't see it, please forgive me for making a thread about it and post me a link to such an app if it exists.
If not, someone please contribute.
Thanks!
Dito!
Yeah... me too! I asked for this six months ago, but the response I must say, was slightly less than enthusiastic. It seems not many people care about seeing what tasks they have planned. Perhaps we're the only people in this forum that have anything planned?!

Yeap, I'd love to have my task list show up on TF3D.

sigh, I guess no one's going to make anything.
Why not use SecondToday combined with TodayAgenda. Both are freely available. You can modify one of the buttons on your Today screen to link to SecondToday, which will than show you your full agenda (including tasks, birthdays, ...), up to 45 days in the future.
Yeah id love that too, well one could use Second today but the tab thingy sounds more appealing to me
yes, appealing
To me, about a month later, it also sounds very appealing...
Nothing's come up in the meantime?
the reason for no new tabs for tf3d is not the lack of interest, its more the high complexity required to build the required lua scripts
i do like the idea however!

A quick solution could be to remap one of your softkeys to call your to do list.
In my case I have re-mapped the left soft key using a registry editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Softkeys:HomeLSKPath = \Program Files\Agenda One\Agenda One-tasks.lnk
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Softkeys:HomeLSKText = To Do List
Hope this helps

Hi,
Contrary to a lot of users I am very happy with Tf3D and the functionality it delivers. One aspect bugs me though, and could be so much better; the people tab. Currently I have to scroll through a long list to get to the person I want to contact. It would be so much easier if the people tab was arranged like the programs tab, with a nice grid.
Now, I don't have any WM/TF3D development experience whatsoever, so I am wondering if this is even remotely possible. It would really make TF3D so much better imho.
I second that. I had manila2d installed on the old Mogul - Would be great to have the people tab like that on the TP & diamond
anyone?
*bumping the thread*
its totally stupid...I disabled the contacts page, because its more work to find someone there, then going to a contacts manager (Phonex)
If someone could do this..it would be great!
I just got an idea - is there no command line, mortscript or something that could call a number? If that would be possible, we could use the programs tab...
bump.
I'd also be happy with a decent today plugin to call or text my favorites on my SecondToday Screen. The commercial ones (few as they are) sadly have very little customization - the pictures are way too tiny and too close together.
contact listing tab
bumpies//
I just want my people tab to BE the general contact list; any way to have that?
Same goes for the Email and SMS tabs - I want them to BE their respective inboxes. If there are more than one account for email configured, it should show the account picker there instead. How hard could this possibly be?
However, I have no programmatic experience, but PLENTY of user-testing experience.
Ideas as to how/where to look for these modifications?
I am on a stock Sprint rom (I think its 1.03 something) and the phone is still pretty much brand new (less than a month since delivery). I have only modified a few things so far, paying close attention to backup along the way with SPB Backup (I'm not entirely new to WM6.1, but this is my first Touch screen phone/PPC).
I feel this thread to be redundant. This thread basically do the same thing but with bigger success and some active modders:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=507697
As we don't need two of the same threads and I feel I don't have enough time to mod and give in to this myself and not many modders have stepped in. I'm sorry. Consider this thread a good idea but the goal is now in the hands of Zepiii. To hack the hell out of MS 3.0
Good luck Zepiii
Hi,
don't think anyone has missed the amazing pre release of this sweet ap!
I'm a mod freak and there are somethings i would like to change in this prog.
like the programs "tab" only has 3 rows. i want to make this 4. anyone with a bit of experience possibly from the 2.xx series know where to do it?
the configs are simple ZIP files. Just open the DAT file as a ZIP file or rename it to ZIP.
in order to edit the file you need to put in the password which is:
b0fm18zq
Maybe we could custom tailor it and post the modded DAT files collected here. Most of the 2.xx series of mods/skins are portable with a little or no modification except renaming of some picture files (same password in 2.xx). the possibilities are endless
Please remove or correct my post if I'm violating/doubleposting something here.
Regards
/Frewys
DAT Files content:
qa_layouts.dat - This contains only XML files. 61 to be precise lots of interesting stuff! (tried to change the Iconspacing in programs to 24. didn't get my 4 icons row though )
vp_menu_btn.dat - Built in Icons
va_misc_now.dat - Built in system icons
vpw_bkg_now - portrait
vlw_bkg_now.dat - mostly contact icons landscape
va_weather_64.dat - weather Icons largest with XML file
vp_bkg_now.dat - Menu frame
vl_bkg_now.dat - same but in landscape
va_profile.dat - media player and profile widget icons
RegHacks:
adding more pages to lifestyle screen
more buttons in collected start menu
change default sms client (bottom)
Memorysaving (no reghack)
interesting links in similar spirit:
SPB 3.0 today wallpaper
SPB 2.1 skins for inspiration
Great idea. I would also love to see this!!!
Is possible to customise the theme colors that available in mobile shell 3? The existing preferences are to dark(I want a white color scheme). Can we do it by editing a dat file(which?) or a registry hack?

Hi Dancer_69,
I don't know yet. I just played around with it last night before bed. I'm just a NB in this who poked around with this great ap after not being pleased with everything and curious on what could be achived so i dont have alla the answers this is a team effort. hopfully someone with the experience or knowhow checks this. In the meantime we have to do it by trial and error. and map it all as we go along
Regards
Frewys
good to know
I have discovered that Topaz enhanced menus works great with SPB MS 3.0 activated (and Manila installed but not activated in the today screen) so so far its a necessary evil to have Manila installed until we know possible witch file or reg settings are needed.
Regards
Frewys
i'll be waiting one this, happy moddings
adding more pages to lifestyle screen
this could be good for some. Found this over at modaco.com forum posted by turborepu quote:
"add more pages to lifestyle screen.. bg image pan works fine still
hklm/software/spb software house 2/spb mobile shell/widgets/homescreen
change "pagecount" to desired number.. i put 4. soft reset.."
supposedly its tested on 10 pages. the result is that when paned the wallpaper moves less then with three. If wallpaper size changed it will "smartfit" it to be the "correct" size.
haven't tried this myself yet three is plenty for me ATM

Hi masrterk,
I personally don't agree. i like to taylor make my GUI and of course the tastes differ. For instants.. i would like to have it pretty barebone and point to the prefered app of choice like resco contactmannager or glarm witch are the best! IMHO annyway
BUT if one could integreate them somehow that would be great if you had that choice.
right now its really easy just to link to those apps from the lifestyle screen.

Remove calendar from professional layout?
Hi guys
i am trying to figure out how to do something that we were able to do in 2.1, but has been left unoptional in 3.0. I would like to get rid of the calendar on the pro screen. All I want to see is my upcoming appointments (if I have any). I don't want the screen cluttered with a pesky grid-style calendar. I am such a nooB at this it is silly, but here I am, messing around with .dat files......
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It would be nice to create a backup/restore tool for the settings/today items/widgets/etc...
When updating the rom this would be VERY useful!
is the pre release official? where's the download?
looks good from the youtube demos
Anyone figure out the password for the DAT files yet? Seems they changed it from the 2.x releases
Great idea. I just took a peek inside today, thanks for the breakdown of what some of the .dats do.
I have a feeling we'll start seeing some custom widgets in no time.
and yes, the release is now official.

There is already one in the SPB Shell settings, click the right softkey in settings and there it is, to the left of the exit button.
I tried it myself today, completely uninstalled mobile shell before I installed the official version, loaded the backup and everything was restored in the new version, included widgets and all

I don't see the grid calendar on my pro screen anymore. On the pro settings page, choose "calendar", then change # of appointments to "as many as possible". After doing this, mine now shows the next two appointments.
