Hi All,
Ever had troubles trying to scroll a window with your finger by tapping the scrollbar? Well this enhancement will solve this issue. Now you can scroll with your fingers, ANYWHERE on the screen.
Give it a try and let me know what you think.
Changes from Alpha:
-PIE scrollable now!
-Bug fixes
-Performance enhancments, somewhat.
Requirements:
-Compact Framework v2 (SP1)
If you like it, show me the money.

It doesn't work with atom life.. ..
Error : Cant find PInvoke DLL 'TouchNavImpl'
work fine with x01ht...but the scroll speed to slow with me...
Does it work with like flick-scroll capabilities? And also has the inverted y-axis direction been corrected?
Work well with PIE and Hermes. But unable to scroll with other touch program ie PocketCM, etc. Be nice if this app included exlusion list option for these touch programs. Many thanks again
problems with other apps....pocketcm and icontacts...
this is a very goood program...although i like the pocketcm interface of scrolling with my contacts..i though that pocketcm was just acting up so i tried i contacts and same thing...so now... disable it from the home/today screen and voila pocketcm works again... can i get this to co-exist with pocketcm and/or icontacts? i really love the way programs and PIE work like a charm with this..any help appreciated..
I tried it with a qtek9000 (wm6) and it worked, but it repeats twice the tap action, and the scrolling action isn't that easy.
But it is a very promising application.
Thank you!
the good-
1. Now scrolls in the correct direction so that is good.
the bad-
1. Shortcuts and web links are getting activated when lifting finger of the screen.
2. 'Tap and Hold' context menu is disabled in all applications (i.e. PIE, Newsbreak ect..)
3. The scroll is too fast compared with finger movement.
wish list-
1. I use and like the builtin screen drag in PIEPlus. So therefore would be nice to exclude cerstain applications (I think others have asked for this ability also).
Anyways, I appreciate your efforts to make PPC more finger friendly and this is a good start.
Does anyone knows why it wudn't work on atom life and what "Error : Cant find PInvoke DLL 'TouchNavImpl'" means? I would love to try this app out...
WM2003SE compatibility! Please?
my thoughts
i have to be honest, i didn't expect this to actually work. but right after i installed and SR'ed, it worked like a charm! i'm impressed. however, some issues.
one thing that others have noticed is that it seems to have disabled any form of scrolling that is not related to scroll bars. for example, both my PocketCM and my Slide2Unlock were nonfunctional once this alpha was running.
2nd: again, as noted by kismat1970, it completely disables any form of tap and hold, which renders a vast majority of PPC applications useless.
along with fixes to those problems, i would also like to see an exclusion list, and perhaps a way to temporarily disable it? like when you tap on the small icon on the today screen, there is only an option to exit. i would like if there was sort of a toggle (as a side effect, a toggle would be a temporary workaround for the two problems i listed; however, not a permanent fix, for sure)
Good work on the alpha, overall. I'll keep my eye on this to see how it develops.
totally useless
I've beeing looking for something like this on this forum and here it is. I know it's still apha, but it's a start. I hope eventual you change change to native language. CF is good and all, but it's just too slow. I'm interested in the progress of this one.

Hi!
This is one of these totally useless feedbacks. Remember that this is an alpha release. I you don't have anything constructive to say, please don't say anything.
BTW! I think the idea for this program is great and very welcome, and with some more development be quite useful. Keep up the good work.

Agreed. Say (helpfully) what works and what could be better otherwise butt out.
Agree with al the issues raised so far (hey, but that's why it's an alpha right)
An option to hide the trayicon would be cool as well.
Thanks so far. One to watch.
thank and great job.. especially for big fat thumb ppl like me!!
just 2 suggestions
1. instead of enabling scrolling the whole screen mayb can let scrolling only at the right side (thumb size width) and not the whole screen which the tap and hold menu can still works on the other side? hope it does not sound too stupid haha..mayb can include option to change the area and size or side of the screen which the scrolling is enable
2. application exclusion option will be very very helpful too!!
Thank for your efforts and sharing!!
Cheer!!

Jeranimo,
I am not sure why it doesn't work with the atom life. It is application unlocked? WM5? I am not familiar with the atom life.

Yeah. Still an alpha. Getting the foundation of the app down. If you could give me some suggestion of how to make it more user friendly, that would be helpful.

The flick-scroll capabilities is still not implemented because I have not had time. As for the inverted y-axis direction, that is now implemented
I found a really software that I want to share with everyone. Thanks to sundar_amn for this great find.
If you guys have seen the LG Prada or the LG Voyager phone, you will noticed that this plugin looks really nice with nice user interface. It might need a lil TWEAk to activate a few programs when pressing the buttons.
So far buttons that does not respond:
In Phone Menu: NewMMS
In Media Menu: Java Manager
In Utility: Voice Recorder brings up Task, instead of Voice Recorder
In Settings Menu: Backlight, USB Stick, Bluetooth, and Power does not respond.
If anyone can tweak this, it would be a great plugin. I'm trying to see through registry and other ways but could not find it.
Also, Software that is packaged into the plugin are PocketCM, GSFinder+, and GSAlarmClock.
FYI: Don't know who the real Author of this app though, but thanks
I installed it great theme but i need to know if someone can make a configuration file for this. i want to mainly add new icons/programs n change program paths. thanks in advance
Thats really one of the best plugins for the today screen that i know.
As long as there is no tool to configure it, i cant use it anyway...
Could someone please build that?
I love the fact thats its fingerfriendly!
thanx
02 plus
I also found an awesome plugin on this site. its called 02 plus, I love it, you can add several pages of icons and all the pages are easily accessabe by named tabs. the ONLY problem i have with it is my dialer pops up randomly.Especially after downloading,installing or changing programs. its such a handy tool im willing to live with the glitch but if anyone knows how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it!!! if anyone is interested in it here is the .cab for it. thanks in advance for any help given.
Hey, I am new to this whole changing stuff on your phone and tweaking it and all that. Now i see you guys have posted files. Do I only need to put the file on my phone and it will work or how do I do it?

ya iv had my htc touch for about 6 months now and I was definatly a newbie when I got it. they are very addictive. there's way to much to try to explain in one place. if you have any specific ?s feel free to PM me and ill help any way I can.
So what is the latest version of this software out? because i see a few out right now and want the latest version.
When i press contacts it opens up pocket cm 13 when i have pocketcm 23!
when i installed this on my mogul i had the home screen customizer running right.
but when i installed this it took it off and instead of this appearing on the bottom of the screen its on the top
any ideas of whats wrong
i just realoded my 8525 with Black 3.01 and everything is working great but some of the symbols are mapped to the buttons wrong. has anybody else has this problem or know a fix?
This has been covered several times. You need to get the keyboard fix or use Schap's Advance Config to put the layout to ATT (assuming you have ATT since you have an 8525).
press start -settings-advanced config,press misc tab u will see keyboard layout in dropdown select cingular & press done u shld be good .i had same problem this is they way i got it fixed.....
Experienced it last time using Kin0kin masterpiece, several times confusing, but then everything brighter when i found keyboard mapping setup on great Schap's creation.
Now, no worry, just flash them all
preciate it guys. after i did a search for "keyboard fix" i found other threads about it. i knew there had to be something that changed the mapping. i found Schaps Advanced Config prog and the cab to fix it. Working Great. I upgraded my radio to 1.56.70.11 and running starbase's TouchFlo2D ROM.
hmm can u post the link here? ^^ maybe it would be helpful to someone else (such like me ;DD)

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.

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.
Hi guys,
I tried searching, but to no avail...
I'm looking for a way to acces the manilla sound settings directly from the programs-tab. Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Don't think you can access sub tabs directly - at least I have not found a way. Thats why I wrote 3 simple small apps that set the sound for you. they each have their own icon and just run it from where ever you want. It will load, set the sound, and exit.

Thanks! That ought to do the trick for now!
And something else: The sub-tab for Comm manager IS directly accessable, I wonder if there is a way to have the same for "Sound"...
Youre right. BUt I thought that was because someone wrote a "clone" version of that page and it has been used in a lot of the mods peoiple do. Which may be worth doing if I have some spare time. I could write a manila looking screen to change the sound settings. hmmmmm..

Well This week has been real hectic. But I want you to try my first version.
I had the system and ringer volume working but unfortunatly the manila SDK I used from micyprima (Thanks!) has problems adding new controls unless you render them from scratch. Therefor if you go longer than you screen is they won't scroll like the panel items will. I may try and create some new panel items with slider controls if I have time.
Anyway the basic funtions you want should work.
Let me know.
