SMSPlus Question - Anyone with same problem?

2 replies · 1,635 views · Started 17 May 2003

Hi there, I've installed SMSPlus and have the following problem.

When it starts and I load a rom, the whole of the GameGear image is not visible. The 'taskbar' with the application shortcuts is still visible on the right hand corner of the screen, and on the left, I've still got the 'status bar', with signal strength, volume, etc.

When I press the jog dial as per the help file, the phone goes through the application shortcuts (SMS, Contacts, Calendar, Internet). The jog does not respond to SMSPlus.

I've also tried locking the screen, but it still doesn't respond. Anyone with similar problems?

Thanks

What gamegeat image are you talking about? Well, its seems you have overlapping applications running on top of each other. Try closing the aps that you are not using, this will save you some battery and some memory. When you run some applicatins, what happens is a window just opens on top of the existing one, sometimes these windows dont cover the whole screen and you will see the background ap running. Im not sure but this could be what you are seing also.

LordByte, your simply stuck with the problem untill someone releases an update.
I can run most SMS games (Yay wonderboy III, dragonstrap! =D) unfortunatly the scrollwheel still launches programs when I press in/out.. and that happens all the time. Most of the time its fine.. untill the #!�%!# webbrowser starts and framrate drops below 12fps...lockscreen keeps the display on top.. but doesn�t help.
The most annoying thing is that this can prol be fixed with some minor code changes, just see how elegant Oggplayer has become.
