Spb Pocket Plus question

Spb Pocket Plus question.

I had it installed earlier using the 'Spb Yellow' theme and the icons where relatively large. When selected (thus having the highlight) the 'Duracell battery' icon was about 1/2" wide by 3/4" tall. This was running true VGA (via SE_VGA). After uninstall & reinstall the icons are MUCH smaller.

I had also tried ozVGA but didn't like how it worked. Not sure if it played into the mix at all.

I like the much larger icons, especially when trying to use the backlight adjustment slider.

Can anyone tell me how to get the big icons back, while remaining in VGA mode?

tap and hold the stylus on the icon and you should get a pop-up window that allows you to select Large icons.

Which version of pocket plus are you using? The lastest version (3.0 i believe) of PP has the battery, backlight, ROM/RAM and memory cards in reallly tiny size icons by default. You cannot make these particular icons larger. I dont know why Spb did this. The only work around to this is to install a vga skin for PP. Then the icons will appear later in true VGA mode. Hope this help.

As posted, the Battery, backlight, and storage icons don't allow size adjustment in the manor you described.

Thanks though.

Where should I look for (free - I hope) skins for PP?

you can go to Spb site and do a search for vga skin. Theres a link there. Also use the search feature or google it.
