I am having issues installing the trial version of Softmaker on my BJII. Is it due to the fact that the BJII runs WM6SP? (So, technically it is not a Pocket PC?)

Does anyone have recommendations for a FAST/ACCURATE PDF viewer? I'm mainly concerned with the speed at which I can search (using search function) through PDFs (sometimes the PDFs are fairly large, greater than 15Mb). I searched and read posts that said Clearvue has some issues with large PDFs. Other than that, I'm unsure what program would work best.

Thanks,

Softmaker looks really powerful. How does this compare to Clearvue? I wonder because Clearvue is less than half the price of Softmaker (looking to buy the whole suite).

Does anyone have a recommendation for a better word processor for WM6? I've been on Cnet and Google but can't seem to find one that fits the bill... Any ideas?

Thanks,

Thanks, Sean!

Mind sharing the portion of the xml code to make 2 columns (to display both calendar and tasks side by side)? I'm assuming that's not using the Facade View plugin, rather the standard Facade schedule/task plugins?

FS

I'm guessing that's Facade? How did you manage to get both your tasks and schedule to show at the same time? I didn't think Facade would allow them to be side by side?

I really doubt the compressed air will work--it has to get under the screen and then manage to blow the dust OUT. If anything it will only redistribute the dust.

I just took mine to a local ATT shop and they happily gave me a new phone, on the spot. But that would require you to still have an active waranty... Other than that, there have been a few people on this forum that have opened their BJII up--maybe pester them and get them to do a full write up/video?

Sorry, I thought you meant the alarm icon on the homescreen. I haven't fiddled with the screensaver functions of AK. The time I have used it, my battery meter represented what was shown under Power Management.

The people at mobiion explained the hook manager a bit to me--I'm hoping to delve deeper and see what other information about it I can get out of them. As for now, I don't think I'm going to be using AK as it just feels too buggy.

FS

Ahh, good call--I completely forgot about unpacking the .cab and having a look-see. I also posted a topic over at mobiion (makers of HookMgr). I'll keep you updated. Let me know how your comparison with your friend goes!

FS

Do you have the latest version? I believe it is 4.02. I have no problems with the batter/signal meters and my alarm icon actively shows I have an alarm set. The main problem I have with AutoKeylock is the change in direction with my scroll wheel. Sometimes when AutoKeylock locks my phone, little oddities happen--like screen flashes or backlight flashes quickly/once. I haven't had problems answering phone calls or unlocking though.

Do you know exactly what Hook Manager modifies in order to allow multiple instances of the keyboard? I want to know so maybe I can edit it and correct the directional problem with the scroll wheel.

I have yet to find another program like AutoKeylocker. As of right now, I'm a little hesitant to use it all the time as it "feels" buggy and I don't like how it changes the direction of the wheel.

I just installed maniac's automatic keylock program but ran into issues with my BJII not being able to "hook the keyboard" aka the infamous "error 31." I went to the forums on maniac's site and people found a solution by downloading Hook Manager (http://www.mobiion.com/downloads.html#hookmgr). Automatic keylock now works like a charm, but when it is running my scroll wheel only wants to move up and down in the start menu (as opposed to side to side).

The change in movement is kind of annoying but I'm more interested in knowing what Hook Manager actually does. What does it mean to "hook" the keyboard and can I somehow change the settings of the movement of my scroll wheel when my keyboard is "hooked"?
