Has anyone noticed a slowness after installing SPB Pocket Plus?

I noticed my device is slower in particular when pressing buttons on the screen. Anyone else have that issue?
thanks

no problems here

Neither here, its quicker now that i can acess all my apps.

nope, works great... did you install it on the device or the card? I have on the device.

Only had this issue when I had the HTC Home plug-in on aswell as Pocket Plus

I've been using Pocket Plus for a couple of months and have had no problems with slowdown. The only time I noticed a drop in responsiveness was when I installed one of the Touchflo Cube apps - back to normal once I removed it.

so its not advisable (in terms of speed) to run spb p+ with the cube then? are there any other conflicts running spb on the tytn II? (eg running it with Dutty's v4 or with another app eg ce star)... cheers

Strange Icons

Hi,
I have noticed that on my brand new Diamond some programs after they are installed show a strange (damaged) icon in the "Programs" window. However when executed the corresponding "small" version under the "most recent applications" menu looks fine.
One of such programs is ScummVM.
(I have attached some pictures)
On my "old" TyTN II everything was fine.
Do you know how to fix such a strange behaviour ?

It seems lots of users experience this bug. Find some info here and workaround here. Hope it helps.

Thanks, disabling the buggy TouchFlow3D solved the problem.
I hope HTC will soon release a patch or a firmware update.

Hardware buttons map with MortPlayer

Hi there,
I've searched a lot but did not find any solution to this:
I'm trying to have MortPlayer's hardware buttons mapping feature working.
I can see it in the menus, after I've set "Use application buttons" to "Yes", but the message of the "Assigne device buttons" option still is "To assign application keys, first activate them above!"
Was anyone able to use this feature on Diamond?
Thanks in advance!

I tried too, but I think it's because the hardware buttons of the diamond are not like others pocket PC.
Many others applications don't see them (Mobipocket, Resco photo viewer, ...)

argh! Bad news.

I am having the same problem with my newly updated to WM 6.1 HTC Mogul. This may be an issue with 6.1 and Mortplayer. Can anyone confirm?

Problem with SPB Pocket Plus & WM6.1...?

Hi there
Does anyone else use SPB Pocket Plus (latest version V4.0.2 - Dec 07) and WM6.1 and suffer the annoying problem where the today plugin icons don't pickup correctly after a reset?
It's easily fixed by clicking to refresh all tabs, but surely it shouldn't do it???
I'm also suffering a problem whereby not all text messages are received by my phone. (I posted in the General section with no joy - am hoping that you software guys may know if something conflicts?!) It's very strange as the phone lights up as if a text is coming through, then nothing happens. I've tried a Hard Reset and restore to no avail.
Wierd thing is, my mate has a Kaiser on Vodafone UK (V1615) running WM6.0 and he has the same problem - I'm on O2-UK so it's not a carrier problem.
I set his Kaiser up for him with much the same software as mine, including SPB PocketPlus V4.0.2...
I also (I know, I'm sorry!) have a problem with the today screen if I change things... For example, if I change the backdrop via Pictures and Video's, more often than not the phone will hang requiring a stylus reset. Am wondering if this is SPB PocketPlus related???
Any idea's? (Sorry about the multi questions!!)
Cheers

sorry about the double post!

As far as the PocketPlus, I am using it and I haven't had a problem at all with the icons or anything else for that matter. I haven't had any problems with the txt msgs either. You may need to reset the mms server?? I don't know about that, I just remember reading about it in another thread somewhere... As for the backdrop change, that's not a pocket plus related conflict. I am not sure what else you have installed, but I have changed mine multiple times in the past 2 days and haven't had a single problem or anything that told me I had reset or that I needed to soft reset the phone. I would suggest unistalling the Pocket Plus and reinstalling it. I know that I have had to do that before because of one of the other SPB proggies i used had changed some values in the registry for it. Otherwise, I would contact SPB, they would know how to fix it. Unless you didn't purchase it...

Hi Killerbeans!
I'v tried uninstalling and re-installing a couple of times to no avail unfortunately
The only other things I have installed (all bought and paid for!) that startup with the phone are SKTools (set to performance optimisation) and Kasperski AntiVirus...
I might try uninstalling those and SPB and reinstalling them one by one...
Cheers for the response though!

I have been havng the spb problems since 6.1 installation as well (I am with AT&T in the US, original Kaiser).
Thanks for pointing out the "Refresh All Tabs" option...I have to stupidly admit that I was not aware of it and I have been fixing the icons one at at a time....very boring...However, I have no solution to offer to the problem, other than to verify that it is a real one.

Hmm running fine on my kaiser with the hyperdragon roms...
Are you using the "close button" plugin? if so, did you enter tmail.exe and poutlook.exe as exceptions? don;t doing this could lead to problems
for the icons, I have the same problems too sometimes, did you install it on main memory? are the missing icons from programs installed on storagecard?
there is an option under today plugins->advanced, "refresh icons in today plug-in when storage card is inserted." try enabling that and see if it helps
Bartus

Hi guys!
Thanks for the responses! It's 'good' to know it's not just me having the SPB problem, although not good that it's happening at all!
I've installed it on Storage Card (as I have since my Wizard days). Using SKTools I've set the SDDeamon to startup 1st so was hoping that'd sort it... it didn't
I'm glad the refresh all tabs helped!
I've added those exceptions Bartus so I'll report back! I have the refresh icons when storage card inserted already which doesn't seem to work. It is the apps located on the storage card that don't load though so it has do be something to do with that.

Go back to 4.0.1 it doesn't have the problem.

Hi Sirooga
I'll give that a try, if I still have it on my HDD!
Cheers!

Today Plugin Problems
I also use pocket plus on my Tilt, and it is apparently version 4.0.2 build 6227. What really annoys me is that the today plugin worked perfectly on wm 6.0, but after that &[email protected]#! 6.1 upgrade, it works fine for a few hours after I installed a lot of programs and soft resetted a bunch, until I backed up my phone. After using sprite Backup 5 ONCE, it deletes all my tabs and icons in the plugin and doesn't remember them no matter what I do. It still is checked in the today plugins menu, but it isn't there as there is nothing for it to show. SPB's got some serious work to do.

Today plug-ins shoud be installed to Main Memory.
Spb 4.01 works far better than 4.02 IMO.

help with spb mobile shell

ive used both spb mobile shell and touch flo, and i think spb wins against touchflo except for the media player part... though after a few days of using, ive encountered a bug i think, when i run need for speed underground it hangs at a black screen just after the loading message, i thought it was a minmo6.5 bug so i installed a game fix but still to no avail, ive also tried using teeter and this bug occurs too, i see the ball but all else is black but when the ball passes through an area, it becomes visible again.... lastly this problem occurs on the camera, it comes out black screen with the focus box in the middle, but once i go to options, its back to normal again.....
list of programs affected by black screen:
need for speed underground
teeter
camera
another problem:
i have htc album 2.5 and when i open it then go to lanscape, the picture flips to landscape but only after a few seconds then goes back to portrait...
now, i have reverted back to touchflo3d, the problems does not occur in tf3d2.. but i hate to go back to tf3d2, spb mobile is much better, i just dont know how to fix these problems... i believe that these problems are caused by spb mobile since it does not occur with tf3d2
by the way..
im a touch pro user
