DO you guys also have this, that when you run GPRS Monitor & Wisbar, that you if you have the connect icon from GPRS on at the top of the strat menu, it doesn't take the same theme as what you have for Wisbar.
Now you can disable this icon or move it around, but I don't want to disable it, and I now have this funny looking icon standing out from the other icons.
Got the same issue with it, still not sure whether I'll keep WisBar. It's slowing down my magician too much. Probably sticking with SPB plus 3.1 beta.

What does SPB Plus 3.1 Beta do other than what 3.0.4 offers? Are you saying it is now also doing what Wisbar does?
Absolutely not, but it seems more stable now. Nicer icons & better integration with PIE.
I'm happy enough with the multiple SPB tabs.
WisBar is indeed much better looking, etc etc. I totally agree with that.

So what's your today-plugin?
i love the look of wisbar.. but yes, i get a lot of lockups now.. and soemtimes my theme disapears! and yes, i get that gprs icon error also.. itll change back to the default icon ad not use the wisbar theme i have.
spb is great, but im not too big on having a bunch of stuff on my today screen... i looked into having shortcuts in my task tray, and i was linked to that .cab someone made called "phm tasktray only.cab" or something..
what sucks about that is, when you go to ADD, you have to manually TYPE OUT the shortcut path.. no way to browse to the program itself.. big hassle ;d
i really dont want to get rid of wisbar, but if it continues to act up.. i have no choice =[
im hoping when i do my firmware upgrade, itl lhelp somewhat.. maybe
I must say Wisbar 2.5.0.1 is working very nicely on my Jam. Haven't had it lock up, or quit to give the normal windows look, it is not slow, starts up properly when I restart. Also had no problems with Pocket Plus 3.0.4, haven't tried 3.1 beta yet.
Me again, the more my today screen shows, the better.
Have anyone see this?

Now it's possible to use finger almost everywhere.
Looks very good.
They've removed the repeating alarm feature which is a deal-breaker for me.
They've announced that they'll be making it available as a separate download later so I hope they follow through.
Other than that its pretty cool.
The touch scrolling is a very nice addition.
So far so good.
As a today plugin it's great, we can add/integrate (almost) everything to it!
Nice
Looks very good.
I like the "finger" scrolling movement.
The problem is the finger scrolling only works with a small number of applications that are defined by SPB. I tried the trial and found that FTouchFlo (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334965) worked much better and also works in every application.
Finger scrolling works very slow in IE on my Artemis (WM6).
I installed it for all of one hour before I lost my marbles and got rid of it, lol... the thing slowed my cell phone down, not too much, but enough for me to be very unhappy with it. Additionally, the autohide function does not enable scrolling if the today screen icons happen to surpass the screen size... and, it disables other plugins I love and enjoy to use such as the Battery Status plugins, argh!
Overall, I could come to love a nifty program like Pocket Plus 4, but I think I'll stick to smaller plugins like PIEPlus and FTouchFlo to cover my needs for now :-S
Just installed on my Kaiser. I looks a lot like SPB Mobile Shell, but the option to add Today Plugins is fantastic. When it doesn't affect my battery or performance too much, this one stays!
I can't tell affect on battery yet, but performance it still ok!
Just posted some screenshots. It looks pretty nice with HTC Home.
i like what you did with the htc home plugin in the middle. nice

Yes, very nice. How did you do that? I notice that it is embedded in your Home Tab.
in case he doesn't come back: if you can't do it by default (maybe you can) there's a reg tweak to make the htc home plugin movable

Can you post the reg tweak?
Judging by johanromijn's screen-shots, it looks like you can make PocketPlus look like MobileShell (without the dynamic icons) if that is true, then if you don't use the Now screen, is there any real benefit to MobileShell?
The one thing I would wonder before trying, is.....do the tabs disapear like MobilShell, or stay constant like old PocketPlus? That would be the deal-breaker for me!!

Sure.
MobileShell is using less memory
But both are for the same price so if one doesn't care about memory guess its better to buy PocketPlus.

The smart scrolling feature is freakin awesome! i dont need pcm contacts anymore since I can touch scroll on the built in contacts and messaging! I can even touch scroll on PIE and file manager.. damn this is good.
I'm using a Hermes and it has no impact on performance whatsoever. It can flip through portrait and landscape in a millisecond (unlike SPB Diary). This is the best today plug-in I've tried so far.

Agreed, on my Apache, it works great I going to see if they will implement sweep right/left to change through letters in contacts or flip through photos, that would be nice.
Also hope they can implement the finger scroll when scrolling through appts. in SPB Diary.
the finger scrolling does not work with resco explorer
I think SPB will not support any products from other companies my friend.
You can still have the touch scrolling feature using this

Does anyone know how to make the Calendar appear on one of the tabs? I've made the same change as listed here for the HTC Home plugin, but it doesn't seem to work for the Calendar.
I've always thought my demands were simple, but as it turns out, I couldn't find anything I liked. What I'm looking for is a prettier UI, but much more important, snappy and 100% finger friendly. SPB Mobile Shell is nice, but I need something that will show me my tasks and appointments on the main screen. Also notifications of and easy shortcut to missed calls, voicemail, e-mails and SMS, all on the main screen. If possible, that it would disable the regular WM notifications (at the status bar and at the bottom). A launcher that would open in one click is also a must, although I don't need too many shortcuts there, about 12 would be enough.
WAD is probably the obvious choice, but it's too slow for me. I need something that won't be memory and resources hungry. Oh, and it needs to run on WM6.1
Is there anything like that out there?
Thank you very very much......
pointui, thats the way to go.
it cant supress wm notifications, but that might not even be possible
I agree with fzzyrn. After a bit of development, Pointui will be the best UI available. It's currently not that customizable but that's supposed to be available later in the future.
Try to make your own! Use I'm using Batterystatus and Ultimatelaunch for example!
Google! But, seriously sounds like you need UltimateLaunch. Google!
UltimateLaunch in combination with something other(battery status, rltoday, ...) is perfect choise.
id recommend ultimate launch and pocket informant

Wait what? You're describing exactly SPB Mobile Shell 2. Ah wait, no Task display. All the other things are taken care of, though (calendar, easy shortcuts to missed calls, voicemail, email, SMS, all on the main screen), up to 16 icon launcher (if you use a custom skin, which is the way to go), and only a couple MB of RAM taken up (at MOST, 5. normally about 2 or 3).
ALSO, as a side note, please don't create this type of thread in the Development and Hacking forum. I know it's tempting, seeing as this is the section with the mosts views/posts, but please go to the General section for this type of thread, if you even have to make one in the first place after searching.
I love the sprint clock, and I have a great background which looks good. No problem here. The problem is that it breaks the background for all the other pages.
I have tried Nissel's Background4all hack with the mallina files, but the image is 256x256 and get streatched, and looks quite bad. Is there no way we can get it to work properly (even if the background is the same on all pages?)

the way it is now, you can't have both the sprint clock and all tab BG, pick one or the other. keep and eye on muns manila tweaks thread. hopefully it will be solved soon, but it has been a while so don't hold your breath.
Hi,
i have installed a trial version and i only have days before i need to decide...
i got a big problem.
I thought this is a very good customisable program.. but..
1) MY now screen is still the same.. it has clock weather and 4 icons below.. etc THATS IT
how do i - get speed dials on it. a few fav programs/shortcut.
2) How do i auto start it on start up?
i did tried my best to play with my settings but nothing done.. for example.. i tried to customise my now screen but i get a box of installed plug ins showing 0 installed
still the same.. my now screen is just clock weather and a few status icon..
how do i add he speed dials.. frequently used programs etc?

Hi!
You can customise your today screen:
SPB menu->Settings->Today->Items(bottom)
You can add,remove,set things.There are more dial tabs.
OR
my solution:
clear today screen,but everything at hand
I use the now screen set to the left soft button,after that I can use the SPB menu,contacts.
BR.

Hi,
So this means, this new version installs as a panel as well?
This is my main criteria, before I will even try this on my xperia..
Please use "search" function, my friend.
Full version will NOT work as a panel.
