1. Calendar not syncing. How do you get the calendar to sync with anything? I have dates and events scheduled every day for the new month, yet none are showing. (The calendar on the beta did sync on initial install however it would not update).

I've notice that too - until I found out that it does synched... the thing is its not visible on the front of the panel. I believe that events only become visible if it's in that week. If you touch the app itself you should be able to see markings of your appointments/events. If problem persist then uninstall and reinstall the calendar app.

2. Changing the locations on the "Travel" panel. That little 3D globe is nice, however I can find no setting to change the locations.

I've change the names on most of the panels - but if your referring to the world globe widget, then you would have to touch anywhere between the country and the time - which then will give an option to select another place. It's limited to only three places at any given time.

P.S. I emailed the developer already but if the time they take to respond is anything like the beta, I'll have already have put this in the recycle bin of apps that didn't make the grade.

I've notice that they do take a long time responding back to their customers. They really don't want customers to start writing bad reviews of their app, and lack of customer support. A few good updates should put this app in the number one spot in the market. Plus a price reduction (blink)

PS. I hope these were the answers your were looking for.

Thanks for your reply. The World Clock worked. Not very intuitive but I like finding things out and experimenting. However, I was not able to get the calendar to sync. On the beta, appointments would show up but I noticed they didn't update and the date would remain static to the date of install. The only way to get it to update was disabling and re-enabling the home app which on the beta was a pain. All in all I like it though and will stick with it a while. Strange going from minimalistic LPP to this but it was time for a change.

Since I'm not rooted this app has been the best UI so far.

•• Tip ••
If you're trying to open an application and it won't, press the back arrow (hardkeys) on your phone.

Tapping the menu button(hardkeys) brings up your panels in a carousel card view, and tapping it again bring you back to your home-screen(this only work from the home-scrren). (Ps. Long press hold on menu key brings up your last six applications as usual.)

Is anyone having a problem with the Time Panel skins? When I go into settings and try to change skins, not all the available skins load, and when I press on the skin, it says, Loading skin failed. A lot of the skins won't even come up at all. I am wondering if it is just me, or is everyone having this problem. I was about to reload the program, to see if that helps (ie, uninstall and then reinstall). But, if other people are having this problem, it is a server issue.

Typical SPB. Their legacy is over-priced eyecandy which doesn't provide any tangible value. If only they would come to terms with all the revenue they lose by over-pricing their schtick, they would wise up, charge a much more reasonable figure, and cast a wider net.

That's likely caused by your internet connection - I've had that happen to me before. There is no need for uninstall / reinstall procedure. Just update your data profile, or restart the device.

I'm keeping a keen eye on this app.. I wrote a stern letter to them about their lack of customer support towards their customers - and stop responding to customers with computerized automated system. (Ugh!) I don't know much about this company - but I'm reviewing feedback from their other applications.

I would appreciate if others who have purchased this application to help keep this thread alive.

This application on my inspire runs like a champ and looks amazing. Doesnt drain too much battery life either.

I did write them about the Weather Widget not having my town. They responded "Unfortunately, this is not possible because we do not provide the weather forecast. Its provided by a third party partner (foreca)."

The only problem is I went to Foreca website and my town is in their database. So I am not sure what to believe. But they did respond to that, at least.

^^ No doubt that this is an awesome app, however, that's not enough to keep customers satisfied.

I will be on top of them like white on rice(no pun intended). There are many people including myself who love and admire this application. I'm going to give SPB the benefit of the doubt at this time. They haven't respond back to my "blunt" message I've sent them yet.

SPB 3D works great on my HTC Thunderbolt. It soooo smooth and fast.
