Changing DeviceOemInfo?

[jasoncheesemanuk]

I've got an application that will only work if it sees a particular device that has been set on an enterprise server and I'm desperate to use my Hermes device rather than the supplied Windows Smartphone that doesn't have a stylus - yuk!

The log reports this:

DevOS=PocketPC
Device=HERM200

PPC device is unknown: [HERM200]

If I can change this to something else that is known by the enterprise server then I can continue loading the software.

I've searched the registry and can't find the string "HERM200" and I've tried changing the entry in ActiveSync on my PC but that just gets refreshed.

Any ideas or I will have to use my stylus free smartphone instead :-( No more billiard master either :-(

It'd be easier to crack the app rather then change your OEMInfo.

If it's not confidential, email it to me for a quick look, or post it here for the Legion to mull over.

It's Credant Mobile Guardian and the rules base is controlled by the enterprise server. The only program that runs is GKProbe.exe on the PC. I think it would be a mare to crack.

It's likely to be easier to crack the app rather then OEMInfo - IIRC OEMInfo is embedded in the Rom/hardware. You could hack the ROM I guess, but I'd start off with the app personally.

Viijay,

Thanks for your replies. I've got the installation application. Would this be something that you could crack?

Thanks
