Must do/have?

[ChrisB]

I just got my Qtek9090:
Rom: 1.12.00WWE
Radio:1.02.00
ExtRom: 1.12.120WWE

So any new rom version I have to update it with, and what "must have" programs do I need?

well,
try these
1.Photo Contacts (http://www.pocketx.net/), this is a must-have-program.
2.Mortplayer (http://www.freewareppc.com/multimedia/mortplayer.shtml), a good media player, you can listen to shoutcast radio with it, it's free.
3.Spb pocket plus (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/?en) , MUST have
4.Resco file explorer (http://www.resco-net.com/explorer.asp), better than PPC's own file explorer
5.Pocket informant (http://www.pocketinformant.com/p_pocketinformant.php), wish if it was integrated from start.

hope this'll help you to get started any way :wink:

try the XCPUScalar

This program allows you to set the CPU speed for both underclocking and over clocking

Overclock to 472 MHZ. useful when running the bigger programs.

Underclocking, however is the realy nifty thing:

One problem with ALL XDA users is power consumption, when you bluetooth, wifi, GSM and listen to MP3s, you start feeling the drain pretty quick.

One way to conserve power is to use a lower CPU speed when smsing, or yakking on the phone.

Download trial from PocketGear. The latest version is compatible with Xscale 270's and 250's

It even includes a power down and soft reset button, battery, storage meters. all in a very small package.

I Have:

(free unless stated)

PHM PocketPC PowerToys (http://www/phm.lu/products) (some of its naff, but you can chop it out manually) The notepad utility, and 'screen saver' thingy, and run... doofer are the most usefull also includes traylaunch (to shove things on your today tray, and a load of other faff.

vxIPConfig (http://www.cam.com/windowsce.html) - shows IP, gateway, blah blah

Orneta FTP (http://www.orneta.com/)

Skype PPC (www.skpe.com) A killer application, but currently rather unreliable. The terrible wifi reception on the XDA IIs and friends also means that you cant stray too far from your AP. If you do, it drops the call, and the IP stack crashes!! (soft restart required).

Still more convienient than being tied to a pc tho.

<href="http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=2825">Pocket Lan</a> - Shareware - allows you to connect to shares on your network, also does ping etc

PocketTV (http://www.pockettv.com/) - Helf decent video player

PocketDivX (http://www.projectmayo.com/projects/detail.php?projectId=9) - Only Divx 4.1 support unfortunately

Conversion tutorial here (http://www.jens-seiler.de/pocketpc/pocketdivx-en.html)

Flash Player (http://macromedia.com) for PPC (bit too slow really!)

Hi

To add to this, try betaplayer --> its excellent! I have now uninstalled MVPlayer, PocketDivx and pocketTV, beta player does the lot.

Get the 'unstable' release though, the stable version is old and is missing codec support. I have found the 'unstable' version to be rock solid.

I seem to be the only one who likes the look and feel of PocketPC by default... Of all the programs above, the only one that doesn't offend my visual cortex is the photo contacts program.

:)

To each their own though. 'Always good to see people's lists.
