Shortcut Icons App

ICTMax · 03-15-07, 08:04 AM

Hello - I am looking for a program I can use just to put shortcut icons on my front screen (x51v, WM5), kinda like my windows xp. I don't care about appointments and fancy scheduling or weather. Any ideas? freeware and commercial. Thank you

What you're looking for is a launcher utility such as tdlaunch, clauncher or scott and michelle's launcher (all freeware). There are other more fancy commercial utilities such as SPB Pocket Plus that offers a launcher plus other features (e.g., task manager, battery indicator, etc.).

iLauncher from www.sbsh.net is also a good one.

I downloaded the free ones and none of them worked. One of them - not sure which - had three cabs once it was unzipped and it still never showed up anywhere (file manager search icluded) Anyway, I am getting SBSH i-launcher. Thanks everyone for all your help. Have a great evening.

iLaunher is great, and the new version is even better. You can do a soft reset without hitting the button in the back. Shut down one, all or all but the active ones. So no need to have vBar or psShutup installed. :approve:
