SPB Mobile Shell 3

---

Hi folks,
I am new here, but I have read through most of the forums and cannot replicate my problem, so here goes.

I installed SPB Mobile 3 over the air last night, and it worked like it was supposed to. I didn't like 2 because when you hit the power off button it went back to the today screen.

SPB M3 worked like a charm last night, when I hit the power button, it was there waiting. When I turned it off, it turned the screen off (without going to home) When I hit the icon I placed on the nice new display screen, it went to the today screen, and I could start dialing an unknown number.

After crashing SPB twice trying to set default ring volumes, I figured I did enough damage, and hard reset my phone.

The mobile shell will not come on now unless I hit start (pain) and after I hit power off, I must power off the today screen also (or wait the 1 minute timeout) Does anyone have any idea what I screwed up or did not configure right? I understand this is more of an SPB mobile 3 problem (more than likely) but I figure there are pros here.

I have hard reset since, removing spb
I have tried using spbwatcher, which almost eliminates making a phone call not from contacts
I have tried replicating what I did last night (installing SPB over air, and through desktop)

I am just a little frustrated because the new SPB looks great, easy to use and very productive.

Any thoughts?

Just to add something to your info. SPB Mobile Shell does not work with RealVGA.

To bad though.. ..It looks like a cool program but it's not useful for Palm users at the moment.

I'm running it on my treo pro & it works fine

SPB MS3

Running great on my Treo Pro... wouldn't like the phone too much without it!

Sadly there is in fact a very bad bug with the Treo Pro ringer and Treo Pro. SPB has this listed as a critical bug on the Treo Pro.

Yeah, the treo has a lot of system hacks with its side buttons -- and MS3 didn't expect this, it seems.. so there are some very significant issues with the Treo Pro/MS3.

but I'd ever read there is some methord to fix the problem to make SPB MS3 work on PRO with 96dpi.

I must be missing something b/c so far MS3 works pretty well on my treo pro. Maybe I don't know enough to see a bug if it hit me in the face - what should I be looking for?

These Issues are solved:

1st Treo Issue:
Ringer volume would drop to 0% if you touched the volume buttons on the side of the phone.

2nd
On the Lifestyle layout, if you used individual widgets for mail, mms etc it would not display voice mail messages but it did on the professional layout.

3rd
Again on the lifestyle layout the mail widget that was combined with the sms and missed call would not link to the primary email account.

If you follow this link you can download the beta versions (which still require your MS3 serial number). I currently have 3.0.1 Beta 3 (build 6488) which fixed the issues listed above that I was able to find wrong.

Currently they released a newer beta version that I will be testing out shortly 3.0.1 Release Candidate 1 (build 6501). Hope this helps

Thanks so much scotty for taking the time out to answer my question. If I download the new beta and install... do I need to uninstall the old one? Will I lose all settings and favorite contacts set up, etc?

Thanks,
