I've been running Ultimatelaunch for about a month (unregistered) with no stability issues.
Try searching here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366796). They have answered a lot of questions. If you don't find it then post. They are pretty good about getting you an answer.

Yeah, make sure all today plugins that you want INSIDE the Ultimate Launch are UNCHECKED to be on your Today Screen.

I am using PhoneAlarm on the Today Screen and the following inside of Ultimate Launch
Weather Panel
Battery Status
Today Agenda
Seems to work with one exception.
If I go to Mail, open the keyboard (Rotate Screen) then go to the today screen and close the keyboard, INSTANT LOCKUP. If I stay in mail, and go back to the closed position, I am fine.... Otherwise seems to be working.

To device memory of course!
Never install Today Plugins to your Storage Card, that can cause problems!

Hi there guys,
been searching if anybody had the following problem, then i stumbled on this thread, where somebody might be able to help me.
I had a qtek 9100 before with ultimatelaunch, with today plugins in ultimatelaunch. This worked perfectly, nothing wrong.
Recently, i purchased a Kaiser (to be precise, a T-mobile MDA Vario 3), on which i tried to run Ultimatelaunch. Everything works fine, except after i launched an application & go back to the today screen. When i run tomtom for example, and i go back to the today screen, the ultimatelaunch part is not automatically refreshed. If i just press in the area once, its redrawn. Does anybody have the same issue, or even better, a suggestion on how to solve it?
thnx in advance,
greetings hawkeye

does anyone find that activating the htc home screen on start up cause problems? or better yet does anyone have any tabs that they activate on start up?

Problem is that HHC check if HTC Home Plugin is enabled at startup.
Because it thinks it's not, it starts HHC. After making changes, it will try to copy changed file's to HTC Home directory. Because HTC Home is loaded into Ultimate Launch that will fail, and make Ultimate Launch crash!
Best for you to do is, disable Ultimate Launch on your today screen, start HHC and make changes to plugin, then after applying re-enable Ultimate Launch. (Uncheck HTC Home, it's auto enabled trough HHC.)
That should work for you.

When I was testing HTC Home with UL, that's the same thing I did.

After installing UL my TomTom (6.010) is not finding the map anymore. Before TomTom worked fine and I have not installed other software after installing UI. Anyone having the same issue or an idea if there is a conflict between the two programs?
Any help will be appreciated, because I love UI and do not want to uninstall it.

Make sure you have the ttnavigator.bif file under \Storage Card\. If not copy it from \Program Files\Navigator or \Storage Card\Program Files\Navigator.
Ultimate Lanch shouldn't have deleted this file, but you never know.

Thank you for your quick reply, holmanm. Unfortunately this is not the cause. ttnavigator.bif stored in both mentioned directories. I have checked the file on my PC with an editor and the directory name of the map is correct.
I have no idea why the map is not recognised anymore.
HansOlo
Edit: I have uninstalled both programs, softresetted, reinstalled TomTom, softresetted again, same issue. This has probably nothing to do with UI.
Or are there any registry settings changed by UI and not changed back after uninstalling? (just a last hope for an easy solution...)

First off, if your name is really Hans Olo that's an awesome name. If not, it's still an great screen name.
Secondly, I just wanted to make sure that when you say "ttnavigator.bif stored in both mentioned directories" you don't mean "\Program Files\Navigator" and "\Storage Card\Program Files\Navigator". ttnavigator.bif has to be in the root directory of the storage card "\Storage Card\".

Hi holmanm,
nice you mentioned this Hans Olo thing, you're the first one in this forum :D (at least the first who asked about).
Unfortunately it's not my real name, just thought it to be funny...
To the UI issue: I meant the folders \Programme\Navigator and \Speicherkarte, (german version) so the map should have been found but wasn't.
What I did afterwards was installing the TomTom version 6.030 which was delivered on CD with my Kaiser (and I wonder why I have installed my previous bought older version before, maybe because I have paid especially for it :confused: and it always worked fine).
However, with the newer TomTom version I don't have the mentioned problem anymore and so I lost the interrest in finding the reason for it. Nevertheless, thank you very much for your support!
