well i used it for 7 days, then got bored... i found some bugs that are making me unhappy, so i keep it for showoff and occasional use.
For ex turn phone in landscape.. now SPB rotates too:
1. This isnt the bug, but a lack of feature - the phone doenst memorise separately widget sizes for landscape and normal mode.. Would have been nice to have big calendar in normal and small in landscape..
2. The BUG: in landscape mode enter menu (phone menu - i disabled the "override menu" and now when i press the middle button, it enters normal phone menu), and enter a game... It simply wont start.
Using a Satio.
3. I set it to update weather every 30 minutes, yet it doesnt update at all
4. Would have been nice to have more widgets..

Weather app works like this
"After 1 hour (depends on settings) Weather will start waiting for active internet connection.
And - weather update service can't open a new connection on it's own."

I like this app a lot, the UI is much better than the normal Symbian one. It makes it work a bit like Android.
I've noticed some minor bugs, it slowed down once for no apparent reason, but that might have just been Symbian problem.
The landscape/portret UI pages can be customized separately for position, don't know about size of widgets though. You can't also have 2 weather widgets with separate location set, don't know why?
All in all an excellent app, really thinking of buying this one, it really is a huge improvement to the usability of the phone, and it even adds bling factor to the Symbian UI.
You can download the free trial like I did, really worth a try at least! |

Damn, can any lead me to how I can exit the shell? Been frustrating trying and I know that it is easy, just can't find it.
Thanks.
All in all and excellent application

To exit,
Goto Launcher--> Settings.
In the Settings screen, the icon on the bottom right corner, you have the option of Exit Shell |
