Wisbar, iLauncher, PocketBreeze?? Help!

I've been using Wisbar Advance and Dashboard. I'd like to move on from Dashboard. They don't seem to be updating it. I'm pretty happy with Wisbar Advance, but I'm using 1.2.2.1. I'm thinking of moving to PocketBreeze, which looks pretty nice. Does it play good with Wisbar Advance? I'm thinking of going to version 2. Is this a good setup? I'd like something that's not going to be too flakey. I've tried early releases of Wisbar Advance 2, but went back because I found it was too flakey. I'd love to know what your experiences have been. I'm running wm2003 on an ax x5.

I use the latest versions of Wisbar Advanced and PocketBreeze and have no problems with them running WM2003SE. 2003 should be ok.

Hi, I'm using wisbar2 Advanced 2.4.1.5, PockerBreeze 4.3.10, Resco File Explorer 2.52, Pocket Weather 1.1, and iLancher 2.2. Everything was working fine together. 2 days ago a small 4 or 5 pixel high gradient image appeared at the top of the screen in portrait and landscape modes. Unchecking ilancher from the Today Iems list got rid of the image. I would like to continue to use iLancher but am a little distracted by the image. A soft reset reset did not fix problem. I'm using an x50v 2003SE

Hi lwalker :)

The top small line you see on the top of your screen is actually a memory/battery indicator (you can set it to show any of your meters by clicking it and picking the selected meter from the popup menu). This will allow you to view the meter status when using any software since it is always visible :approve:

However, if you prefer not to use this feature (now that I explain a bit more details about this top bar line :) ), this can be disabled pretty easily. You can either disable it through the settings, or, clicking on this top bar line will popup the possible indicators on the popup context menu including the option "None", selecting none from the list of options will disable the top bar indicator line, then you will be able to continue using iLauncher without the top indicator line.

You can also read more about the top indicator line on our site on the following URL:

Hope this helps :)

Wow Amit, That was exactly what I was seeing. I really appreciate the incredible fast response. I went to the settings and turned it off. Now that I know what it is, I feel alot better. Thanks again, LWalker

How do I get color schemes happening in PocketBreeze? I seem to have white letter which aren't working on my light background. I don't seem to have any settings when I open "color schemes". I have the option to import... Hmmm. Did something go wrong in my install I'm wondering.

Take a look at Amit's response to a question on his software. His support of Pocket Breeze, Contact Breeze, ilauncher, and others to this extent should givr you the utmost confidence in the software.
:approve:

BTW, I'm using WIsbar 2, WAD, PB, and CB with no problems.

I tried WA ver 1 ( freeware) and it didn't work to well - locks/freezes etc... decided to take the plunge and bought WA2, and it's a great package, and works fine on my X50v.

Ilauncher

Ok, I'm a bit confused. Initally I bought Pocket Breeze, but then bought WisBar Advance 2. I thought both of these programs basically did the same thing, help please?

Pocket Breeze allows alot more of your PIM info to be on your today screen. The views are tabbed with one being the calendar info, another tasks, another special events and a custom tab for you to have whatever you want. WIsbar allows you to skin your device, and does task management. Different, but plays well together.

Currently using Wisbar with WM 2003SE. Not a problem at all.
Runs and never presents any problems.

I am waitin' for WM 5. Anyone know of any compatibility problems with Wisbar and WM5?

Have you tried the latest upgrade from the Lakeridge forums?
They are constantly updating the software on the forums.

My new X51V is arriving this week and Im hoping to get wisbar advanced and pocket plus and possible wisbar advance desktop on it. is anyone using this combo ? and do you notice a big decrease in speed / memory ?
would sbsh ilauncher be better for ram / speed than pocket plus ?
