• After the changes ShellExtension restarts the shell automatically.
Add your own XML files in the qa_layouts.dat, the simple way:
If not exist, ShellExstention makes a subfolder for You in the spb install folder, named ZipToDat. ( F.i. “Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell\ZipToDat\”) When you put xml files in this sub-folder and you restart the SPB shell with ShellExtension, the XML files are read in the qa_layouts.dat file at the correct way.
(Use only the XMLs you extracted from the qa_layouts.dat file or extra files you want in the .dat file)
(After update the dat file the XML(s) are deleted from the ZipToDat folder, leaving the folder empty)

MS3Config by volDeus alows you to change the background on any screen on the fly. You can have as many different backgrounds at one time as your device memory can handle! You can also add, remove and rename any of your carousel panels, and change the number of lifestyle panels you have! No more zipping & unzipping fondotela.dat files. MS3Config DOES NOT OVERWRITE OTHER MODS so it does not affect mskips widgets!!!
