Has anyone any idea whats wrong here?

Nothing wrong
You only get to play with plug-ins if you have something like spbWeather or spbPhoneSuite installed

What about...
Thanks for the info! But maybe not the answer i was hoping to get
Anyway... How do i get my tasks/appointments to show in the Now screen?
Another thing...!
What about hakking Mobile Shell 2.0 to accept 3.part. Plugins?
Is that possible?

you can't use other 3rd party plugins in the Now screen except for those supported by SPB Software like their very own SPB PhoneSuite etc. otherwise it'll be the calendar and alarm that can be displayed on the Now screen.

is there any posibility to add a shortcut to S2U2 on today screen
a "lock" button like the speaker,or to modify the speaker icon and shortcut to S2U2 ?
thx

I could be wrong here, but as I understand things SPB is a shell that sits on top of WM and takes over many of the normal functions of the O/S. You would either use the native O/S for most of the device functionality and just have SPB in a limited form on the WM Today screen or, use SPB to provide most of the menu-type functionality in its own shell...which doesn't feature a Start button.
In other words, you can have WM with the Start button or SPB without the start button, but not both.

Perhaps I explaned in a wrong way myself.
What I need is just to have a button in spb layout ( with every kind of icon .. I used the windows flag..., able to launch a program, in the detail "quickmenu"
How could I do it ? This is the great problem
is it more clear now

you could create a shortcut linking to: "\program files\Spb Mobile Shell\MenuLauncher.exe" -cmd:"\SOFTWARE\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\Menu\Root\Programs"
(you can create a specific shortcut very easily with Total Commander)
Once you have this shortcut you can launch it to get the programs from start menu in the spb mobile shell interface. If you now integrate this link/button in your spb mobile shell theme, you will have access to all you programs.
It's not really what you requested, but it's a workaround...
good luck

Which shell do you use on your HD? TF3D, Mobile Shell ...?

Hey folks,
I am still playing around with my new baby and am loving it ;-)
I have been using SPB Mobile Shell for months on my Polaris and like it very much, though TF3D looks nice for sure, but I am simply not used to it yet.
Anyway, which are the best and easy to use tools for customizing (change tab order etc.) on your HDs? I already got myself Weather Database Editor for adding my city to the accu weather database and it worked just fine.
A thing that I am missing right now, is a kinda finger friendly "Settings" tab like there is one in Mobile shell, that makes accessing every setting quiet easy with your fingers.
Any suggestions?

Sadly, Spb Mobile Shell does not work properly on the HD. Dropdown menus do not function, so it cannot be set up to your personal liking. Spb say that they will look into it at some time in the future.
The basic functions of the shell will work, and you can switch to it by installing SecondToday.

'tis true the drop-down menus don't drop down ... but if you're prepared to fiddle you can get the drop-down to scroll to your preferred setting. Click in the drop-down menu to highlight the first choice and then use the up-arrow and down-arrow cursor keys on the soft keyboard to scroll through the options that would normally drop down. When your preferred option appears, tap Enter on the keyboard. I've used this to set up Spb Mobile Shell 2 on the Touch HD. Still, it's worth learning TF3D.

Am I crazy in thinking TouchFlo looks much better than SPB MS ?
because I do !!!

Lock Screen Applications

Ok, I'm running Windows Mobile 6.1 on my SCH-i750, and I have SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.1 installed. I'm trying to find an unlock application that doesn't 'emulate' iPhone or Android, so no S2U2 or ThrottleLock. Perhaps just an elegant key-code app, or a "rotate to unlock" or something. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

Why not use the default keycode lock under Settings -> Personal -> Lock?
AFAIK it's the only one that You can not bypass (not so easily ayway).
P.S. And it's "lock screen" app, not "unlock" app

The reason I don't use the default screen is because it's just really.... bland in Winmo 6.1

Try mlock or sunscape or roll2unlock
