and it should only be clock.exe, not clockexe.exe, if that doesnt work i would delete everything youve done and start fresh going step by step as you might have the simpest thing missing.

reposting instructions with a few words changed

How to get G-Alarm instead of default alarm

- Install VJBrisk

- Go to Program files/Vijay555/vjbrisk and make a copy of vjbrisk.exe

- rename the copy you just made to clock.exe

- place the new clock.exe into /windows overwriting the old clock.exe

- now go to program files/ageye/G-alarm and rename G-alarm to clocklnk.lnk and place it in the /windows directoy along with clock.exe.

WALLA! click clock and g-alarm should launch

I've followed these instructions to a T and I get the following error..."Error 2 eading LNK file: '\Windows\clockLNK.lnk' The LNK has an incorrect format"

I didn't capitalize the first LNK in the file either...Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Just installed ms3 and i must say its amazing. Few months ago i tried ms2 but i didnt like it so much, but now ms3, everything i need is just on my homescreen, very nice...

But one little question, does S2U2 work well together with ms3? I stopped using S2U2 because of some bugs like for example somethimes i couldnt pick up my phone... Does this problem remain now while im on ms3?

Thx in advance

Hey guys, sorry if this is a noobish question but when i try to change my wallpaper in spb3, the wallpaper comes up sideways. It appears normally in s2u2 though. Does anyone know what might cause this and how i can fix it?

Thanks in advance

Lovin' v.3 ! Here's a couple of backgrounds for you. First...

A neat executive/modern wallpaper. I've adjusted it so that the medium analogue clock sits nicely in the centre. Also try the red and orange versions.

You can download the files here (right click, save as):

SPB 3 960x478 red wallpaper - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/Jum...erface1-red.png

SPB 3 960x478 orange wallpaper - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/Jum...ace1-orange.png

S2U2 240x400 green wallpaper - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/Jum...n-wallpaper.jpg

I love this clock! Can i install this in my omnia without using S2U2?

hello!

I´m looking for a possibility to integrate Resco Contact Manager in MS 3 Taskbar. I hope someone can help me (perhaps many others) with this Problem.

I guess you can fix this with an entry in the registry, but i have no idea.

Thx in advance

How to change the "second color" Theme ?

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english.

I think most prefer to use the Black Theme in SPB Mobile Shell, right?

After you install the SPB Mobile Shell v3.0.1, you go to Menu/Theme and tap in the Black Theme

The "second color" automatically changes to gray

What is this "second color" that I am mentioning?

Look at these four pictures that have enclosed here

Take a look in the calendar color. One its gray and in the other picture its blue

Both using SPB Mobile Shell with the Black Theme

If you open a text file in the Word for example and you select a text, the color of the text I selected is gray. I want to be BLUE with the black theme:)

I want use the Black theme, but the "second color" has to be BLUE

Black and gray for me sucks

Black and Blue looks like better for me

So... How to change via reg edit the gray color to blue

Just go into Settings > Personal > Theme (not the SPB theme in Tools) and change the colour scheme to blue (the drop down menu at the top).

Looks good... most of the improvements were available through hacks and I was already using some ( Only Lifestyle screen, 4 pages on Lifestyle, added Carousel panels )... I need to know if the 3D email viewer works on Omnia so I have a good reason to upgrade..

After you change the personal theme to blue, go into Tools > Themes and again select the black SPB MS3 theme. Now the background should be black but with blue highlighting/letters instead of grey.

unfortunately this does not happen

Back to black with gray highlighting/letters

Maybe a way to change these values by editing the registry with PHM Registry, but I dont know where to change the gray values to blue values in SPB Black Theme

Sorry for the noob question, I found no answers.

How can I add new icons from the Settings menu into MS3.5's settings menu? It only shows the default WM icons, not stuff I've installed like TouchResponse settings panel.

With 3.0.1, you had to install things like that BEFORE installing Mobile shell. Probably still the same.. I don't use 3.5 though :)

Seems like that's also the case with 3.5. :( Cheers.

This thing is pretty good all around, I just do understand why the icons aren't cached. Otherwise it's pretty much perfect, even though the sensor stuff doesn't work even with the HTC emulator.

You can't set different ringtones for different people in 3.5, whereas you could with earlier versions. This seems to be a bug. This is a pity as I had the Halloween tone set for my boss... :)
