Pocket Plus and Xda II Lockups (1.66 ROM) - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

We have noted some strange locking up of our Xda II's over on the MTekk forums requiring a hard reset. We have a number of threads running at the moment but the main one is here.
I have been in touch with Spb about this and they inform me it is actually an HTC and MS issue. Below is their email response.
Hello David,
We do our best to fix this problem ASAP. We work hard with HTC and
Microsoft now on this problem.
But this problem occurs not only with Spb Pocket Plus but with other
programs too.
We have feedback from HTC and Microsoft about that (sorry, I cannot
disclosure more
details since it is information obtained from our partners).
So I am not sure we will be able to fix it in Spb Pocket Plus - probably
HTC will fix it in their ROM.
Spb Pocket Plus does not use any undocumented functions that can cause
such behavior.
Probably we will disable running Spb Pocket Plus on these devices at all
until HTC fixes this bug in ROM
Pocket Plus 1.x is not available online now but I can send it to you if you want via e-mail.
If you bought Pocket Plus 2.x and can't use it, you can always ask for refund.
If you have any questions, please, don't hesitate to contact me.

It appears as though this issue could also be happening with version 1 of Pocket Plus on the 1.66 ROM (and some 1.72 ROM's too).
Thought you guys might like to know. Generally I find Spb products to be good, but it appears as though Spb are being blamed for this issue. I think this email help point the finger in the right direction.

Hi djwhyte
This is some strange stuff as I've been running Pocket Plus 2.0 for a few months and have recently installed 2.1 (just for the hell of it I think its only a VGA update from what I can see)... but have not had any problems on my XDA II before, hear are my details of my device if this helps:
ROM Version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM Date: 02/20/04
Radio Version: 1.08.00
Protocol Version: 1337.18
ExtROM Version: 1.66.165
The only thing I could think that I MIGHT be doing diferent is that I do not use the today screen pluging (I use all other features like repeating allarms and task mannager!) At the begining I did use the today screen and do not recall any problems as well I've taken it off because my today screen was getting to cluttered with other software I am running.
Not sure if this is going to help you but have to tired installing Pocket Plus with NO other applications installed after a hard reset? It might be a conflict with other software or even a totaly other product causing the problem? Not sure hope this can help you!
Regards
Fudge!

Pocket Plus 2 is installed in my wife's XDA2 with 1.66rom. its almost 3 weeks now and so far no problem. my XDA2's rom is only 1.60.

Hey thanks for info guys.
I will have to try without the today screen pluggin and see if makes any difference.
Boybi, your wifes Xda II which is on the 1.66 ROM, does it have the today screen plugin enabled?
Dave

is the Today Plugin the one where you can put battery and memory bars, and put some icons? if yes, then its enabled.

i too am having problems with the spb pocket plus v2.1 using xda2 with 1.66WWE ROM version. i get hang ups and the unit would do a hard reset. good thing i always do a backup of the contacts and appointments!

aside from Pocket Plus, what other Today Plugins can you guys recommend?

I was wondering what was the lockup caused by. I uninstalled the SPB GPRS and SPB Pocket Plus and now it's ok. No more lockup. I had to hard reset, but couldn't initial find the problem until the trial expired, weird. I guess that's why I bought it.

I find GPRS monitor is OK!!
I have a feeling the Today plugin is the cause as I have had no such crashes since I installed it again with the today screen disabled. What part of it I don't know though.
Boybi, which icons, sliders does your wife have enabled on the plugin?

One thing to note on this, is that SPB update their software silently and don't tell ya about it.
So get the latest build of PocketPlus and try again.
Cheers

my wife's XDA2 just locked-up today! can't turn it on even using soft reset. so i think its really the Pocket Plus! now i disabled the today plugin.

Ooooh Sorry Boybi, I hope I didn't curse you but that sounds like the lockup.
I have been running sweetly for three days without the Today screen plugin for PP2. How long did your wife have the Today screen showing before it locked up? Days? Weeks?
Cheers,
Dave

Possible LOCKUP?
DJWHYTE,
im using pocket plus ver 2.1 on a 1.66 ROM XDA II, just installed it 24 hours ago, no problems so far.
All featured ITEMS enabled, Today Plug-in, File Explorer enhancements, Pocket IE enhancement, Looping Alarm, etc..
Im very disturbed by what I just read in this thread, although I have experienced 1 LOCKUP, it happened while SPB Pocket Plus was NOT YET installed.
Can anyone please advise HOW LONG was the average time FROM installation of pocket plus DID the LOCKUP occur? and what your POCKET PLUS version and ROM versions are?
Certainly would put most of us at ease.
Cheers

With my previous 1.66ITA it worked for about 3 months without troubles (PP 2.0 first and 2.1 later) .
After the upgrade to 1.72.04ITA no chance to install it anymore; it freezes and the only way out is hard resetting. :evil:
Spb team says that they are working on it... hope so, otherwise I will claim for my money back. :evil: :evil:
My experience up to now is that PP is white or black: it works or not, at all. In your case it works, so I would not worry too much... :roll:

Good, now I can sleep better knowing my XDA 2 will still turn on tomorrow when I wake up. Thanks DAVE.
Any other observations out there?
I may DREAM better if there are, hehehe.

my wife's 1.66rom XDA2 runs with PP2.1 for 2 weeks without any problems until yesterday.

maybe other apps?
boybi,
pre,
maybe another app caused the lockup? you havent installed anything new in those two weeks? may i please know what your apps are?
mine are:
1. pocket plus 2.1
2. my calendar
3. pocket zen
4. flash player activeX
5. morphgear
6. calendar plus
7. pocket translator
8. pencil box
9. calc98 and aidem calc
10. betaplayer
11. SB check notifications.
12. vbirthday
just want to know for comparison AND app finger-pointing.
thanks.

I too have had the problem
Ever since I installed the Spb PocketPlus ver 1.x and onward I have had that problem. It occurs rarely but often enough to annoy me (1-2 times/month). It seems to make no difference if I disable the Today screen. I have removed it now. I don't have much other software on it, except for Destinator 3 and a painting program. I won't return to PocketPlus until the issue is solved.
Johan

sbp
The italian localized 2.1 will not work on the 1.72 ROM, to make it works you need to install the 2.0 and after it the 2.1.
No problems at all

Warning about Wisbar Advance

Just a warning for anybody with a Jam or any mobile PDA..
Do NOT install wisbar advance, it's one of the most popular pocket PC programs, but it actually stops the phone from ringing after a few minutes and you cannot receive incoming calls.
They are currently developing a new version especially for mobile PDA's.
Just thought id let you know as it caused me a lot of problems until I found it was wisbar causing the problem.
Only the phone edition of wisbar, in alpha stage, has this problem. :wink:
Hi Jacoch, that is incorrect.
The mobile edition is being developed because of the problem with wisbar advance on mobile PDA devices.
Wisbar advance was meant for PDA not PDA running windows mobile.
I purchased wisbar 2 and it had that problem.
Wisbar mobile edition has lots of problems too as its in alpha.
If you have a jam, feel free to install wisbar advance 2 and open then phone app, and make a call, then try to receive one your phone simply wont ring.
it not happen with standard Phone program & happen with some Phone Extra program (like Intelli Dialer....)
I noticed the same.. I've tried Wisbar Advance 2.0.1.9 on my T-Mobile MDA Compact (without any of the extended rom stuff like intellidialer installed) and it won't ring while running wisbar.. The phone will turn itself on upon receiving a call but there is no ringtone and the phone application doesn't show..

Exactly the same with mine.
The creator of the wisbar 2 is aware of the problem and thus created the mobile edition.
Its obvious really that it would cause problems, because it wasnt created with phone calls in mind.
It will run perfectly on a normal pocket pc
hey guys i am usin xda II installed wisbar advance only caz i wanted to use the aqua mac theme ne ways...was very disappointed to find out that it doesnt ring and blah blah.....but last nite what happed was i left my xda II running in wisbar mode and the phone was locked and guess what in the morning it started ringing it self when i got up it was askin me for a password as it gets locked after 5 mins and by the time i unlocked it call was cancelled and i could see the miss call on top.... and the thing was actually ringing for a surprise.... !!
regards
jeetz
I use IcBar (it is based on wisbar api). I think it creats some of delay when someone calls me.
am I wrong??
UPDATE:
Chris over at wisbar has now released a beta version that is very stable and the phone rings, you must download the beta version from the forums. Make sure you choose the WM2003 SE download.
Along with Pocket Plus it's the best program for pocket PC. I love it.
I purchased SWdeluxe theme, expensive but wow my phone looks simply amazing!!
ok its just damn great...... !! awesome news.... !! buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut... it has some minor graphic issues....BUTTTTTTT i dont mind that as long as i can use my aqua mac theme along with my xda II RINGING !!!

Hi Maverick!
About the download of the stabil beta, where do you find that one?
Got a link?
I tried the "phone edition alpha", but those were VERY instable on my S100.
Thanks, Hejko
Edit: Or, were your copy the same one as I tested?
Hejko, go to http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1425 and download the version for wm2003se its very stable.

The latest beta version solve this problem ..
Get it there ] http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1425
works perfectlly !!
Ok I'm fairly confused about what Wibar Advance Software I should be downloading.
When on the Lakeridge Website there is a section for Wisbar PPC Phone Edition, but the product listed there is relatively ol, 12-04, and is called an alpha.
Minotavrs,
The Beta you provide the link for does not indicate that this Wisbar Advance is applicable to the Phone Edition, however, I took your advice and I have installed it on my JAM. So far no big issues. I called myself and the phone rang. I noticed when in the Phone Pad Program that you cannot exit from the phone-pad unless you hit the end-call button.
Besides that, at least thus far, this Wisbar Avance (isbaradv2.20112.xscale), appears to work great with my JAM.
So far I'm very impressed. I have never used wisbar, because I have always had a PPC-PE devices and Wisbar would never work with these types of devices.
So-is the Wisbar Advance 2 that I list above made for PPC-PE devices or is the new Advanced 2 Wisbar application just providing extra support for PPC-PE devices?

Problem. My screen's screwed in today view

Hi, first of all, i want to thank you all. I've just bought a s100 and have learnt very much of you.
My problem is that after installing spb pocketplus, my screen gets screwed up, it looks like it doesn't refresh the screen info. I hard resetted it but again, having pocket and contactbreeze on today, i got the same problem when viewing contacts in today.
Could it be a cleartype problem? Anyone had this problem?
Thanks and regards from spain,
jshooter
I had this problem once, with the same programs installed. The Today plugin wasn't refreshing even after few soft reset.
I solved it by switching the Today theme to something else, and then switching back to the previous one.
It worked.
Hope that will help you!
Thank you SO MUCH!
It worked, so I've installed spb too. Now, my today shows messages, spb and pocket/contactbreeze.
Anyway, is it normal or am i doing something wrong? i don't care if i have to swith themes once a month, but once a day???
Thanks and regards, my next goal: pocket hack master
Hi jshooter,
Do you have SPB Pocket PLus version 2.5 installed? I have it and there is no problem at all. Do you have any software that might be messing around with the today screen apart from SPB Software?
Try to use only spb software on the today and then gradualy add other plugins and detect is one is faulty.
Regards
Hi,
yes, i have 2.5 plus version, and first time, it was my only today plugin. Last time it occured (yesterday), i have only pocket and contactbreeze, so i don't really know what the problem is. Anyway, i'll try to live with that, i love my new s100! (apart from this and the sound quality, that is so so)
Thanks and regards

Wisbar advance desktop <-AWESOME

I've just found that Chris @ WisbarAdvance (www.lakeridgesoftware.com) has created a plugin that makes WM5 into ablank desktop on which u can do anything. It's awesome, and seems stable on my JasJar (no alarm failures etc). Some kelw features:
- Different landscape vs portrait themes (so no cut-off images)
- Remove soft buttons on today screen
- shortcuts
- virtual screens and popups of shortcuts
- text meters and graphic meters
Basically anything that any other plugin offers!
Check it out.
Checked on the lakeridge website and couldn't find it- whereabouts is it?
Thanks,
Fin
This site states it is NOT compatable with windows mobile 5.0

lakeridge forums are back up now!
it works, but as you begin using it, you'll find out that your Universal will become EXTREMELY slow.
This is a known issue for WM5 and Universal, so a new update has to come out.

Are you referring to the 2.4.1.11 beta or shipping version when you say it is very slow ?
I installed the software but it made my device slower than ever.
I uninstalled it, and my device is OK now.
I'm using GSPocketMagic Ver 1.32.18, it's the only program which does not affect the speed of Jasjar and does all functions I need to close the running programs. It really made using my Jasjar is much better, easier, and faster.

Is It just me?
Hi,
-Went to WAD forums, dl'd RC6 and even RC5 beta of WAD, WM5 .Cab...
-dl'd from JJ incidentally
-installed CAB from File Explorer
-Install deemed "successful" after CAB ran.
-Soft reset and the whole 9 yards (ie: double checked today screen settings) and see no aesthetic change to Today Screen's look, and some ambiguous WAD folder in Programs.
Advice much appreciated Dudes.
Thank U!
I'm having problems with this too... I just get a blank desktop and it won't load any of the skins I've downloaded to work with it...
Pah.
lol
haha
you need a full version of wisbar advanced!! then you can add the the WAD plugin ;o) worked fine for me..
only problem is that wisbar advance is not wm5 optimized.. it slows the Universal down!!!
so better leave it.. and wait for optimized wm5 software!!
Don;t agree. JJ is just as fast as it was after hard reset and GPMagic++ - EXCEPT that portrait-landscape change is VERY slow - 8 seconds vs 1.5. That's cos it loads a WHOLE new theme and skin - a penalty I'm happy to live with for all the otehr benefits - cascading menu, awesome desktop capabilities, original task management, awesome skinning, etc etc.
hmm
remove it all and reset your device and notice how much faster the universal is.. even if you just stay in landscape mode.
i removed all sbsh software and also pocketbreeze and my universal is 20 times faster.
if you don't mind the lagg when changing from landscape to portrait ok, but the menu and all other programs do behave slower too.
When i flip my screen to landscape it now changes instantly.. have to say i use checknotifications. ;o)
just hoping for a great update soon, or else i sell my mda pro to someone here in holland for 600 euros and wait for version 2 LOL
I agree, Wisbar Advance does slow down the device. No wonder, all this graphic wealth has to come at a cost: resources!

The existing version 1.1.1 is not WM5 compatible so although it runs on our wizards it will not update the weather after the next soft reset. Version 1.5 is still considered a beta version so it still has some missing features / functions but i have been using it for a couple of months and it works pretty well.

hey mate I sent to you a private message
I stopped using any SPB products on my Xda mini. Pocket Plus caused lock ups on soft re-booting and Journal would not work.
I am now using SBSH Pocketweather and SBSH iLauncher instead. As far as i am concerned both progs are better, cheaper and more importantly work 100% with WM5.

exactly...but to me SPBpocket plus still works good...hopefully :? it won't change...now I'm trying SBSHpocket weather...great job really...it support even proxy!!!
I use SPB Weather because can put it like a Folder os SPB Pocket plus that I like very much (have today icons, many funtions to assign a button like "task switch", battery meter, a folder with files that you use frequently, a X close button that close apps realy, calendar folder, tasks folder, etc...) have many many functions!
As I use Weather as a folder I can save Today screen space!
If I use another app weather I will use more today space...
I hope SPB can make a new version of weather (not Beta) soon...
Now I use WiFi connection without proxy to sync weather and is ok.
SPb weather 1.5beta has a problem with updating when docked. Also Intellicast forecasts don't work now. The authors work on that and will release a new version when it's ready.
Giordano, you don't need a new serial as it's still version 1.x As far as it's so you may use your serial to register a new release.

Don't let your heart go
Actually, i'm glad with SPb products: they are useful, and they are made in my hometown so i have a chance to support local developers ))
there is a file on this site for the spb bug called weatheragent2.exe.
I can probably post it, but thought there was a problem posting .exe's on the forum.
if someone wants to pm me an email address i can email it.
it requires a manual click though and doesnt automate the update, but clicking on it forces the update.
it works on my jasjar wm2005 device.
I've just bought and installed the WM 5 compatible version. Installed fine and got my first weather downloaded. I can't get it to refresh though "Weather Data is Not Ready". I've tried through Active Sync and wireles. The ony other thing I've done is added an additional weather source in line with this;
http://www.pdagold.com/themes/detail.asp?t=12007
Deleted that (just in case) but made no diference - won't refresh !
Also: anyone know how to change the text in SPB Weather to white not black (as it was in previous versions) - I use a black Today background and black text doesn't show too well !!!!!
did you try to change the weather source?
Carmi
Yes but no difference.

My left soft key is no stuck on calander and my right spb home ( which is okay) but i dont use the calendar and would like to replace by a different soft key.
hey there,
not sure if that's exactly what you want, but with the "advanced config"-tool by schapman you can edit the softkeys anyway.
just google "advanced configuration tool v3.3"

The spb 3 disables my panel button. The phone hangs. But the button works fine if i exit out of the shell.
MS 3.0 officially available
I only want to mention that SPB officially released Mobile Shell 3 today. I've downloaded the final trial version and they fixed the freeze problem when pressing the panel button. Everything works smoothly - .

How does it appear on when a call comes in? Is it the same windows bubble which comes, or has SPB got something for that?
A screenshot will be helpful...
