Background Image
Skin your QuickLaunch by loading an image!
Please use images with dimensions of 218x413 for best results. Larger images are not recommended for obvious reasons.
I've attached some sample images below. Hopefully some of you will post some more QL Wallpapers so that I can add them to nikkisoft.com.

GPS Toggle
Quickly toggle your GPS on/off.
How to Configure the GPS Toggle feature:
This feature works with macros simulating user key input.
When you add this function via Add Application you will see an entry field labeled "Parameter:" These parameters must be entered for the GPS Toggle feature to work on your device.
Enter the parameters in the following format: p1,p2,p3 (the p's are numbers)
The first number (p1) refers to the position that the 'Advanced Options' selection is located on your Blackberry Options screen. For most devices this would be a '2'. The second number (p2) refers to the location of 'GPS' under Advanced Options. The third number (p3) will be the location of the 'GPS Services button on the GPS screen. (the one with 'Location On' and 'Location Off')
If entered correctly the paramters should look like 2,6,2 or something similar to that depending on your device.
And now for the bad news:
Check for Update Function Discontinued
This feature has been removed for numerous reasons. It might be added back sometime in the future but for now it's history.
This means App World customers will have to wait until App World approves this release. My apologies.
Note: If you are using a zip code for the weather you must re-configure the settings to use a 'Location ID' instead of zip code. Yahoo weather is currently changing the location id's and your city's id may have been changed recently. According to yahoo zip codes are being phased out and eventually only Location ID's will be accepted. So go in to QL Options and read the new instructions for obtaining your Location ID.

Yeah, it's fixed now. At first the mobile app store would only show support and cancel with no download button. Thanks Cheetah.02-06-10 09:25 PMLike 0 -

The add mute camera button doesn't stay in the menu after reboot?, also my fonts don't look any where nearly as clean as yours do. Lastly when every I click reset my phone in the quick launch menu I always have to click it twice? Am I doing something wrong ?
Either than that, I love this app and great job.

- spoke too soon. the mute should stay after a reboot. it does on mine and the beta testers. try doing a QL Backup then restore from that backup. that should kick it in gear.02-06-10 09:49 PMLike 0
