[The_Stranger]

Tried it, didn't like it....

[goodie]

you cant beat Wisbar advance desktop, FANTASTIC!

[PaulusUK]

I use it.

It is great, as it makes the icons very 'finger friendly', and you can quickly navigate to programs or system settings.

IMO, it really is the most practical plugin - not just looks good, but functional and easy to use

Now this is excately what I´ve been looking for!! Really great app! Finally an app that makes one hand navigation on the touch screen possible in a very good way! Really good, and I really really recomend it to everyone who has a pocket pc!

Great!!

Agreed, Mobile Shell is awesome and given the customisation that's happening in the Dev section of this forum even better.

Hi Deedee.

Any chance you could post some links to some particular examples? I know if I looked for a while I could probably stumble across them, but I'm at work!

Thanks,

Mattster. :)

I have to agree that its a great piece of software, I have used the previous version and have just upgraded yesterday to the 2.1. I'm now able to uninstall the HTC home plugin and use this solely.

My biggest annoyance with it is that you cannot edit the website where you source the weather updates, however I have now installed SPB weather which enables me to specify my weather source.

Whenever I flash a new Rom I always make sure that this is one of the first programs added.

Interesting how this thread has been revived!

I'm often tempted to go for the HTC look, I like the large clock digits, but for functionality and ease of use I generally decide to stick with Spb.

Manindesert, what's your preferred ROM at the moment then? :)

[Mattster_spv]

Manindesert:

Just seen in your signature "FInixNOver WWE 6.1 Ver. 3.2 Light".... not tempted to go for the 3.4 light upgrade then? I'm nearly tempted to flash from Mary to FInix but am so happy with my device as it is at the moment! Plus I'd lose my Tomtom speed camera use (due to change in device code after flashing". What do you reckon?

Not sure about examples per se but here's links to the threads concerned, they are long but there are some nuggets in there:

Development sub-forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260)

General 2.1 Customisation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=389106)

NiteStalkers Themes (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=389636)

There may be others but that's the ones i can find quickly.

I'm sitting at work shattered and dying because I spent last night trawling through the first 200 pages of 2.1 themes and development! The whole diamond theme thread for example was interesting, but the theme itself didn't appear till page 125 or something!

Lots of interesting stuff, but for every tweak or theme offered there seems to be a problem or issue that needs solving. I think I've decided I am too much of a "If it aint broken don't try and fix it" type of person for half of the threads. If anything went wrong with my phone, I would have to drop everything in my life until it was fixed!

All I'm debating now is whether to flash Fixinover's 3.4 lite rom as it apparently has a fix in it for the issue in Mary's Rom where the device code changes and passwords are lost after a soft reset. But I'm still resisting as there always seem to be extra reg edits and cabs to download after flashing a cooked ROM due to issues that people discover! :)

[deedee]

Agreed on the 2.1 thread, i have gone for gfreek's Carbon Pro v2 theme, it may take you a wee bit of searching but for me its currently the best.

Hi there Mattser,

Apologies for the late reply, been away. I'm using Windows Mobile 6.1 by FInixNOver 3.2 SL, it does the trick for now. The only reason I don't flash the 3.4 is I'm being a bit lazy and don't want to be re-installing all the progs!!
