Hi everyone,
In order to install SPB Mobile Shell 2, to test, I wanted to prevent TF3D from launching at each startup. I know there is a way ot desactivate it but will it remove the program from the memory ?
Does anyone has an idea ? I took a look on google but did not see anything.
Thanks for your help.
Start>Settings>Today>Elements>untick TF3D......it´s just another today plugin. BTW TF3D runs fine with MS2.1 on my Diamond.
Nevertheless I have TF3D now disabled - to much of a memory hog. Back to PocketBreeze, BatteryStatus and SPB PhoneSuite together with MS2.1.

Do this to completely avoid TF3D
1. Hard Reset your Diamond (backup before of course)
2. After setting Time Zone and PIN, you see the "3 second" warning for installing HTC apps. Hit the RED soft reset button before the end of the 3 seconds to reboot. After reboot, you now have a clean WM6.1 without TF3D.
X. To bring back TF3D, just do another Hard Reset and let the TF3D install.
I do this myself and have clean WM6.1 with SPB Mobile Shell 2.1
Now I don't have the Blue-Tooth problem (due to TF3D Music Player)
And seems more memory to use than with TF3D

Oki, It seems a little bit hardcore but why not, I will try this.
Thanks for your help
Hi, i just got my diamond yesterday it hanged because i am a newbie and tried several things i do not understand and it suddenly hanged.
I tried the reset it by the small red button, and everthing seems to work fine. Howerever i am now not able to see the Big Digital Clock on the Home page. Pls.. advise on what to do.
I am thinking of doing a hard reset, but i do not know how... What are the risks on doing this and how to do it correctly.
Thank you...
What do you see instead? Nothing? Small clock? Bit more info would be useful....

I thought I downloaded and installed Diamond TF3D Config program. It's the one that you can change the tabs on the home page, add and delete tabs, right?
Well, it seems it was slowing down my setup so I tried to delete it several ways and each time it's still there.
So tonight, I came home and did a hard reset. Settings - clear programs - 1234
That does a hard reset, right?
Well, it redoes everything and guess what, the Diamond TF3D Config
program is STILL there....
Am I missing something?
FWIW, I'm using Dutty's 1.4 version ROM
Thanks,
Mark
That is indeed a hard reset. It might be a part of the customizations and to get rid of that, do a soft reset right before the customizations initialize.
Try going to settings/today/items/unclick Touch flo 3D
If you haven't tried it....

I used Dutty's 2.2 ROM and the programme comes pre-installed as part of Dutty's ROM it seems. Using the advice above about soft-resetting before it installs the customisations should work (?) but then you won't have any of the other awesome apps Dutty pre-loads.
Also, I can;t say i have noticed the TF3D config affecting speed (when tried on my stock ROM) especially when the Advanced Configuration tweaks are applied.
Just my thoughts
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.
Hi,
I have a problem. I'm currently using a HTC Touch Pro and installed recentle the Mobile Shell V3.0. But I can't get back to my original (tf3d) today screen. When i try to get back, the only thing i see is the HTC Wallpaper and a shortcut to get back to spb home. How can i get to my original today screen without uninstalling the mobile shell??
SPB Mobile Schell 3
Me too!
I have installed SPB MS and when i have unistalled it the TF3D wasnt work anymore.
Someone have a solution please?
Tanks
PS: i have a HTC Touch HD with original rom ITA.
The only way I found to get both to work concurrently was to disable Mobile Shell from loading on startup. Let TF3D load, then manually start Mobile Shell after a soft reset.

Verified here too.. Then again, I don't think I'll be using TF3D anymore.

Already done! .. but SPB MS continue to start!
Any suggestion?
Hit Launcher on main menu. Find the SPB Mobile shell icon and click on it. It will direct you to a new page. Now click on the right lower aspect of the screen (right soft key). Click on "exit shell". Your touch flo should load up and there you can select touch flo or spb with ease. You do have to redo the whole procedure everytime you soft reset

All is done but TF3D dont start.
I have the left soft key "Message" and the right soft key "Spb Home" on bottom of the screen.
On top of the screen i have "Touch to start TouchFLO 3d" and if i touch the screen it say: "TouchFlo starting" but not start!
if i push the left soft key "Message" it seems "impossible open the file: MSPOUTLOOK calendar ... etc.."
I think a must do a soft reset also if i dont wont.
thanks in advance
In my opinion I would say just remove MS3... To be honest I was not impressed. at first I was like WoW how flashy..... It even built in a way to Design your own page.... but after playing with it for a few hours I took it off. It was good enough for what it was but just not there yet for me. I LOVED MS2. As long as it had Greatbal's TF2D Theme on it. The best part about it was how snappy it was. it has a great response time... But I didnt like the integration or customization of it. It does not allow to you change the items in the carousel (AKA Remove). I didnt like how you only had the "Personal" home screen that you could slide left and right... I think they should have made it like MS2 more where you could just slide left and right to get anywhere. The bottom bar is a waste of space... and the top bar should not ev en bee there. MS2 if I remember correctly covered the start menu and this one should as well... I dont like that it doesn't integrate with PI8 (but then again TF3D does not either) But my biggest concern is that it does not even allow you to put other SPB products into the carousel.
For me I think I will wait a while and let some of the GREAT designers in here fix MS3 and make it better. I think that SPB did a pretty good job of giving users what the want... but they are not quite there yet. I am going to stick with just TF3D until I see some more improvements on this product.
Have a Great day,
SoBBie
Screen Rotation Delay
MS 3 is a nice interface & I do like the carousels. The deal-breaker for me is the 5 second delay when I slide out/in my keyboard. WAY TOO LONG.
SPB Mobile Shell 3 is great but yes the delay when switching from portrait to landscape is horible! Even worse, if you are in landscape in Opera then hit the home button, SPB 3 gets stuck in landscape till you either reset or launch Opera again then switch to portrait
Hi,
Since a while part of my taskbar is missing. Well, most of the time it is: when I close a program is is totally visible for a very shot while. (See screenshots)
I've allready installed other taskbarthemes using sdkcert, but no improvement..
Anybody got a solution??
Gr,
EdjuH82
I have seen several discussions about making the OK/Close button larger so that you can use your finger rather than the stylus. There may be some ROMS that include this feature and perhaps yours is one of them that is malfunctioning.
I would hard reset if you like your ROM. If not, flash a new one and the problem will go away.
Doug M.
i wouldn't go so far to hard reset anything right away- i would install an sdkcerts and then soft reset and then install a taskbar skin cab found on these forums and see if that fixes things
GustavTheLion's,
I allready installed an other taskbarskin, this didn't help..
The problem accured after I installed a game, which wouldn't work (so I removed it right away. Today I turned the function off that says that puts the time in your taskbar when you run a program and now the problem only accures on the 'home-screen'.
Dwmackay,
An hard reset is an option, but it's the very last one. Maybe there are other sollutions?
Thnx for your replys!
Well guys, I hard-resetted the device and the problem is solved.
But I'm still curious what the problem was, so if anyone can explain it to me.. be my guest
hello,
is there an application that will add a SOFTRESET icon inside start >> programs?
something like the softreset icon of spb shell
thanks
There are plenty. Just search for "soft reset application" and take your pick. Can't really recommend one, since they all do the same thing....
But the soft reset button is easily accessible on the Diamond. It's in the stylus silo. Because of that, I never had a use for soft reset programs when I was using the Diamond.

thanks a lot dude.. i'll give it a try ^_^
