Spb Pocket Plus problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I used Pocket Plus 1.x on my Toshiba e755 and loved it. Just got an
iPaq rx3115 and installed Pocket Plus 2.5 on it. Lots of new features.
That's great. But I've got two problems and don't know if they're due
to the iPaq or the new Pocket Plus version.

#1 -- When I click the Pocket Plus icon on my Today menu it opens the
Pocket Plus Settings screen. There's the features you can add by
checking the box, and below is the "Features Options" box. When I click
on the Features Options box, nothing happens. The box shows that I'm
pressing it, but it doesn't open any more variables. How come?

#2 -- In the older version I used the Backlight icon on my Today screen
to adjust screen brightness. Very handy. But the Backlight icon in 2.5
on my iPaq doesn't have a "slider" control, so there's no way to make
the control DO anything. If you press it, it just takes you to the
internal controls in Settings/System. That can't be the way it's
supposed to work.

Anybody else having these problems?

RE #1 you have your item selected (Highlighted) before tapping it's
settings?

Good! Glad to hear it.

@#2 - It does say that the compatability is an issue according to the
Spb Website. I notice that if I do a soft reset, my device will work.
However, it fails to work after a time so it is a problem.

the items and the Further Options button. One down, one to go.
