Is there anybody else besides myself interested in an updated Flashvideobundle for TCPMP?? This is a must have program for my touch and would love for this to be updated with the current sites and maybe more added sites. Maybe we can start a donation fund to develop this update??????? Anybody down?? Anybody capable of doing this??=D>

The websites are not at all part of the bundle. They are a simple add-on of sites that use the .flv format for videos to be played in TCPMP. The best way is to just browse other sites.

Aren't these programs that don't replace the default sms? Like PocketCM.

Use shogunmark's threaded SMS.

[TheChampJT]

Is there an application that integrates the ability to add a task after a call concludes? If not, is there a way to set reminders on notes taken with the dial pad note function? If neither is possible, could it be developed?

Pocket Informant 8 has alarm notes.

Can someone please post the WMP 6 and 6.1 codec files and codec DLL stuff? I can not get to WMP to play anything at all, so that means S2P won't work either. This for a HTC Tytan, and a Samsung i780. The HTC is on like the no chem 6.1 rom and the Samsung is on the base rom. I just want WMP and S2P to work that is all.

I've been reading on ways to extend the battery life, and, I had decided to tweak the data to time out after 60 seconds. That being said, I still have e-mail checking every 15 minutes, and, it does check periodically on other things. So, It is starting up (and closing down) the data several times an hour. However, I notice that, when the data is connecting, the device is a little lethargic when I attempt to do other things at the same time, indicating to me that starting up data takes up some processer use - which I know also taxes the battery.

So, my question is this - given the above scenario, which is better for using less power? Is it better to have the data start up/shut down several times an hour and timing out if not used for 60 seconds, or just have it stay on all the time?

I am going to install new custom rom to my device


ELFin
Device ID : ELF010052
CID : HTC__J15

IPL : 2.21.0002
SPL : 2.21.0000

Model NO : ELF0300
Part Number : 99HEH108-00

Ram : 128mb
Rom : 256mb

MCC+MNC: None

Device INFO :

ROM Version : 2.21.415.2R WWE
Rom Date : 10/05/07
Radio Version : 03.07.90
Protocol Version : 4.1.13.51
ExtROM version : 2.21.415.102

few questions before i do the installation

1. i don have backup of my original rom, hence i went HTC.com and have input my hardware serial number and got this rom HTC_Touch_WWE_ME_2.20.456.1R.exe
can i keep this as my backup ? so that i don have to take a backup of my rom(since it's requested to take bakup's before flashing)

2. i am planning on installing Swfitblade's 24MB Pagepool Blue Elves ROM V5.0 (Build 19521) on my device since it has the integrated CID unlock thing, so that i don have to worry about doing it myself, i don wanna screw up my device
but the rom says
IPL: Not included
SPL: Not included
Radio: Not included
does that mean i have to patch new IPL, SPL , Radio before flashing or my orignal's are enof???

3. is 'CID Unlock & flash' and USPL same, do i have to worry abt this USPL thing if i am installing Swiftblade's rom?? are IPL, SPL, USPL three different things or IPL, SPL combined called USPL???, i am so confused here, also i saw in some posts that while doing the CID unloack thing, a black white screen comes which indicates the unlock has happened sucessful, if i don get this black ehite after three or four times, i can anyway use my original ROM right??

4. after i am done with this ROM, i can install other rom's too right??, since swiftblade's rom does the CID unlocking and i don have to worry abt it anymore??

5. why is my MCC+MNC: None , i can see some other phone getting some hex numbers, which i am not getting, will this coz any problem on installing custom rom's

Please help me out guys, i dunno wanna kill my device .........

thanks to XDA, i did all the searching to learn all these new stuffs and finally decided on flashing, please don ask me to search the forum for answers, after doing the searching only i have consolidated my questions and have opened a thread, i apologize for my lack of knowledge so i ended up bugging you guys


PS : i saw in some thread that someone needed the new ROM from HTC, i can upload this above mentioned rom in point 1 if u guys want to test it
And this ROM which i downloaded from HTC is HTC_Touch_WWE_ME_2.20.456.1R.exe(AUG 4) and the ROM version which i had got pre installed is 2.21.415.2R WWE, why the hell are the HTC guys giving old roms and the date posted on their website is Aug 4th???

Hello, so i did some searching but as i am new to this site not everything i read or find makes since and therefor makes my searching capabilities limited. ive managed to get my german elf sim unlocked and then ran dsixda program for finding our your CID, SPL etc. and it worked great! now that i have that information i dont know what to do with it.
my elf is currently a german ROM with no english built in. I need to get a basic ROM (correct windows mobile ROM english version?) on the phone for the time being so i can atleast use the phone. later i will try to do more with it i just need to get it in a usable state as of right now. If anyone can point me in the right direction, or tell me which of the many ROM's ive seen will work well with my phone it would be greatly appreciated.

Why wouldn't you just download the .cab file? Most OEM files were created from a .cab. Also, the OEM files have been altered, so it will be some extra work to make them .cabs.

[xpressyourcell]

I love the skinnable features of the digital clock on S2U2 and HTC Home, I don't use HTC home though because I use the SPB Mobile suite instead. So, to still enjoy a large digital clock, I use PocketDigital clock because of the low memory usage (Currently with nothing but TouchPal and S2U2 running my Mogul is at 78%). I am looking for a clock like PocketDigital, that I can Skin to match my S2U2 clock. Any suggestions?:D

Try using BatteryStatus. Or, search for Diamond clocks, I haven't looked myself, but I'm very sure this has already been done.

i don't want a diamond style clock and the spb program i'm running already does the other stuff yhat batterybar does. I just want a skinnable today plug in clock. Like pocket digital clock, Clock, Day, Date, but with skins. Like the clock on S2U2 or the clock on HTC Home. Clock, Day, Date

I can change the font color on PDC, but it looks terrible compared to my clock on S2U2. There are tons of Analog clocks out there to use as today plugins, why can't someone make a Digital Clock?

Hi All

I'm looking for a program which can return me if a notification is active for a specific program (for ex : WakeUpStart.exe) and when the notification will be active (date and time), just like I see in Task Manager 2.8 but in Batch
with that I'll be able to display the next alarm on my today
BTW I'm not using standard Windows alarm because it is so poor , and PocketWakeUp is using mp3
or a program which can tell me what alarm is next (even if G-Alarm or another no problem if not PocketWakeUp if the program can play mp3)

I'm sure you can as long as your trying to use it to record notes via the microphone on your bluetooth set. But you won't be able to record calls.

Hi all,

I have a question, in terms of skinning im just a noob. I know my way around photoshop, but that's about it. If I realy want to start skinning, like a new mobile shell theme, a matching dialpad and action screen for instance. What should I know and where should I start. What program language etc...

Thanks in advance for the answer

I'm not entirely sure on skinning Mobile Shell, since I've never tried. But, I do know the .dat image files are encrypted .zip files, if I'm not mistaken.

The Action Screen uses .brn files, similar to the cube. Editing this will mean using the .bmp to .brn converter, found here on the forum. Then, of course, editing the registry properly to match.

The dialer will be east to do! Tiermann has created an application for creating dialers, it can be found on his site. It is call TDial.exe, I believe.

Hi, I'm developing an application for Windows Mobile. I got stuck in the problem that I tried to get all the CellIds and Signal Strength of all the nearby Base Stations of my PPC.

Hello,

I think some people are looking for my private emails and sms, when i am sleeping. Therefore i need a screenlock with passwordfunction or something similiar.

I use S2U2 and i think that once i have seen a S2U2 Mod, where u have to draw some figures (like a triangle) to unlock your device.

Do you know that program or another tool? Its quite important.

EDIT: OH I found Throttle lock. I think this app should do his job.

[studentjunk]

there is also the windows mobile built in pasword function. it uses numbers, but you can make it form a pretty pattern on the keypad if you like.

NEED UPDATED 8125 CAB FILE: MMS_Composer_WWE
###

Hello,

After a factory wipe of my HTC 8125, I lost my MMS functionality from messaging. Tech support at HTC had no answer, so I found information using forums for the 8125 and MMS Issues. Another user gave me the following CAB file which when installed gave me the MMS functionality again:

http://kaoticwarrior02.googlepages.com/ArcSoft_MMS_Composer_WWE.cab

But even after adding the Cingular MMS Server, gateway, etc. info, the software fails to compose or send/receive messages.

Can a developer please provide for me the current supported MMS software in .CAB format that I may apply to the phone ?

Thanks,

does anyone know WTF is going on??

I have resetted my phone about 30 times this morning trying to see if it would fix it at all.

When i reset, it will turn on and either have no phone connection, and work... or it will have phone connection, but none of my contacts will be there.

It keeps switching between the two states on different resets.

establishing a connection through internet explorer doesnt work either, and windows mobile default messaging wont open when it boots up in the scenario of having no connection

EDIT:
Ok.. now after acouple more resets, it is only booting with NO signal *phone or internet* and all contacts are there and everything seems to be fine EXCEPT I cant open the WMdefault messaging, phone, phone settings and of course cant establish a connection. Any ideas??
I even went into commmanager and tried changing those, tried setting airplane mode on, that didnt change or do anything, just stayed "off" no matter how many times I pressed it..
activesync also does not work, I can charge my phone through my computer, but it wont be detected..

WTF>??
anyone know?
thanks

[F_R_I_T_Z]

OK. Some doubts, no one answer me never. Maybe someone can support me.
I ALREADY SEARCH AROUND INTERNET. so! dont say that have on search please. I already READING A LOT to try understand this. But from 1000 messages here that explain about this things, 999 speak little different things.
Some posts around say just "DONT TOUCH THIS", ANOTHER ONES "DO IT" ( where previous say to not touch'.
So everything become confuse.
The only more COMPLETE things about all was this one in a READABLE WAY:
http://wiki.htcgeeks.com/index.php5?title=HowToPortXIP
BUT same this one still being confuse at some point.


Using the BEPE XIPORT.
1_:
At MAP.phisical.txt where or who are the file i change the "copyent", "modent","filent" base address before REbuild modules again?
JUST A EXAMPLE EX:
"...
904cbfec - 904cbffc L00000010 copyent ....
..."
and i want to change to something like:
"...
804cbfec - 804cbffc L00000010 copyent .....
..."

2_:
The memory map from "physical address" is all fragmened, with "NUL" spaces. so! CAN BE REMAPED to be continuous (just to become "GAY" and CLEAN, besides the hard work to do it) or the exact memory position is RELEVANT at XIP?

3_:
The "physical address" structure is all fragmented, each portion of modules become in different address:
EX:
"...
90492000 - 904cb3b3 L000393b3 o32 region_0 rva=00001000 vsize=000393b3 real=03fb5000 psize=000393b4 f=68000020 for TrueFFS_G3.dll
..."

"...
A LOT OF THINGS
..."

"...
904cc000 - 904cd318 L00001318 o32 region_2 rva=0004a000 vsize=00001318 real=03ffe000 psize=00001318 f=48000040 for TrueFFS_G3.dll
..."

SO" CAN I put they in SEQUENCE?
EX:
"...
o32 region_0
o32 region_1
o32 region_2
..."

JUST TO BECOME MORE THAN "GAY" AND CLEAN?
OR THE POSITION IS RELEVANT AT XIP?

4_:
From a DEVICE TYPE to OTHER, ( NOT THE SAME DEVICES). What are the EXACT FILE i need maintain in XIP? I MEAN. THE FILE I NEVER CAN TOUCH.
( A LOT OF ABOUT THIS AT FORUMS, BUT SEEMS EACH ONE SPEAK SOMETHING, and YES i can look from different XIP´s to same device, but at last in universal, one ROM TO ANOTHER and same BUILD can have all filres with more than few lines of diference).

5_:
Any tool better than XIP ADDRESS TOOL by GARFILED? v2?
( WELL JUST TO BE MORE EASY)

6_:
Does exist a icr like channel where i can GET MORE ANSWERS?

Well, it is..
thanks in advance.. for all.

I'm fed up with the way pocket outlook allows me to search for files to add them as email attachments. What it does is it searches all the folders for files which takes sooooooo long. So in perfect life I would like to manually pick a folder and then select a file as an attachment. Does something like this exist?
I know that there are other email clients out there but I would like to have this feature in outlook as it's better integrated with the OS.

I was using an earlier version of dcd rom with HHC home customizer from pocket emu. The new dcd rom isn't compatible.
Earlier rom gave me 23Mb at boot and 21Mb with HHC running.
New rom gives me 25Mb at boot but if I use SPB Shell I run ar 20Mb.

What launcher is everyone using with this rom to make it run faster?

I only want a large clock and 6-8 launch icons; large full screen Icon launcher if possible. I don't need weather, animation when going from menu to menu or extra graphics based contacts. Does any one make a simple clock launcher combo. None of the launchers spec the Memory usage.

any ideas?

[kbywg]

really nooby question ...but this driving me nuts & i know its a really simple answer somewhere.

i have accidentally copied all my sim contacts to the phone contacts.
This has created a double up when i open my contacts folder.
where can i find the contacts folder using activesync, so i can delete all the phone contacts & just run off the sim contacts?
i've looked just about everywhere for the folder.

do a search for Niki Sim Fix here at xda. It worked great for my Touch. It was one of the first fixes I ever needed and got from here.
Even better, here I found it. hope this upload works.

[Frustrated with Mio]

Hello,

I have searched and cannot find.

My Mio P550 came back from service with a BT MAC of ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

I know what my MAC was from my Bluesoliel on my PC but am having trouble writing it to the device.

I can connect to the device but don't know what file format to use to upload the correct MAC.

I hope you can help with this I don't want to pay to send it back to get "fixed" again.

Regards,

please forgive if this questions is odd. i recently saw a post( not sure if here or ppcgeeks) that was concerning a new style of flash theme. it consisted of panels that fanned across the screen like a deck of cards. here is my problem...i dont recall if it is samsung who developed it. it was said that panels were able to be custom downloaded. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe a stupid question ... but is there a way to switch between the standard Windows Today Screen and the TF3D? The reason I'm asking is because I have several today-plugins which I don't want to miss - but on the other Hand the TF3D also has some nice day to day fatures.

on the T-Moblie Touch (the old one with lousy performance and no GPS- i think it was the touch) you could activate the HTC Toulow by moving the finger from the bottom to the Top and switch back by moving from top to bottom - this was a nice feature :) ...

Thx in advance!

This was my problem.i went to HTC agent and they said the motherboard has a issue.it may be caused to water drop.and they told it cant be repaired and i shoold replace the motherborad and the MB will cost like hell..

Now i need help of ur guys.

1.) Is there any software to disable the power on/off function?
2.) Or is there any method to automatically press "no" of power off msg when it appears.

This was my 1st question ^^^
But i got a reply from "REAPER".he told me to remap the long_power to another application.

But now the problem is to which application to be remapped the long_power key? the application should not open any msg or dialog box.it should be a fake application that do nothing.just to remap the power key..

If any1 can provide me a application to solve my problem,it is very helpful.

I don't know how to map he power button, but I do have two options for you, both use mortscript.

1. Write a script that checks for the "Warning" window (Power will be turned off...) and send a keypress or screen tap to the "No" button, then repeat the script. Probably best to place it in the startup folder.
Example -

If wndexists ("Warning")
mouseclick (130,180)
else
endif
sleep (1000)
Run (systempath("scriptpath")\"MYSCRIPT.mscr")

2. If you can remap the power button, just write a script which does nothing -

sleep (1000)
Run (systempath("scriptpath")\"MYSCRIPT.mscr")

NB. If you are not using a WWE phone you may need to change the window title

Hi everybody
I'm desperately trying to get the automatic deploy function working in Visual Studio 2008. I always get this error:

"The device security configuration may have disallowed the connection. Ensure that you have the appropriate certificates on your device for development. Review your SDK documentation for proper security settings for connecting to this device."

If I transfer the exe to the phone manually I can execute it as expected. So everything but the automatic deploy is working.

I tried several things I found searching for this issue on the Internet. I installed SDKCerts.cab, Certs.cab and changed the configuration using the "Security Configuration Manager" Tool from Microsoft - none of this worked.

Can anyone help?


I have been trying to get this to work for 2 days... And about 5 minutes after posting here I got the solution - I forgot to allow the connection in the firewall. How stupid :/ Anyway, sorry for posting


Thanks, Nigel

I'm pretty new to mobile development so appologies if this is something stupid i'm missing.

I'm writing an app using .net compact framework (c#) and when I deploy it to my phone the SIP icon is displayed at the bottom of the screen in the middle. This is a problem since my buttons (graphical buttons) then goes underneath this icon. Is there any way to disable it from displaying through code?

Hope this question makes sense...

Edit: Seems to be sorted once you add graphical buttons that covers the whole bottom of the screen... Not sure if this is supposed to work like this.

Hello,

Is it possible to use existing apps/programs as today screen plugins. For example, I am currently using Throttlelauncher and want to use S2V as my photo browser but rather than having it launch into the program fullscreen, I would like it to run "above" throttle's bottom launcher bar like the other pages. I guess this could also be accomplished by changing the size of the window that it runs it? I know slim to none about coding so the easier the fix the better if it is possible. Or does anyone know of a nice photo browser plugin (I'm trying to keep with the diamond-style theme if possible), has anyone tried to use the "flash" style contacts type template and gear it towards viewing pictures?(I think thats somewhat similar to the diamonds photo browser from the youtube video I saw)

My problem is that everytime I start my HTC Touch, Activesync is running in the background. I can stop it with taskmanager and it stays stopped until I connect it with the usb or restart, then I have to stop it with TM again.

Thanx.

hi. just a quick question. i've been searching around, and still haven't found a definitive answer to this

what programs should i use if i want to hide or customize my start menu bar?

i'm using dcinobar to hide the softkey buttons, but realize now that w/ phone alarm and UL, i don't even need the top task bar.

i've come across vjtoggletoday, i'll give that a try to hide the top bar... but what other options are there? is tehre anything that will simply let me customize the look of the start menu bar? ie, remove items, change the colours, etc.

i know wisbar advanced desktop will do this, but i don't need a complete shell replacement.

[sdb1031]

I'm new to mobile device development and would like to learn more about securing mobile devices. I'd like to create an application that runs on my Blackberry pearl mobile device that can audit itpolicy security settings, lock/unlock the screen, disable bluetooth and perform a wipe of personal info without using a BES.

From what I've researched, the only applications that can be written for Blackberry are in Java. I've been reading through the api docs (http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/4.0.2api/index.html) to see what capabilities are possible, but it appears that there are limitations in the available api's that make it difficult to write such an application.

It appears that security settings can only be read via the net.rim.device.api.itpolicy. It seems that the only way to make changes to the security settings is via event injection class, which is unreliable since sending a series of key presses is necessary and the position of program icons can change. Does anyone have other ideas on how to make policy or settings changes on a blackberry?

I've seen ads for other software apps (e.g Roblock) that can wipe a blackberry when sms text messages are received, so I know that this is possible. Any ideas that can lead me down the right path?

Hello.
Today I started to try to program for Windows Mobile. According to tips found somewhere I downloaded eMbedded VC++ 4 and SDK for PocketPC 2003. The IDE doesn't seem to work, but I use the commandline.
So. Years ago I wrote an application to lookup windows error codes. It is really simple, so I chose it as a program which I will port into WM as an exercise.
After some work the application came to live on my diamond. However, I have some problems which I can't solve by myself.
1) The X button does minimize, not close the application, unlike for other apps. How to handle what happens or at least tell it to close?
2) The title bar is at bottom combined with the typing bar. How to put it at top and, maybe, insert some softkeys at the bottom bar?

*major edit after some time*
I found the answers, so I am posting them there so other newbs like me won't need to ask it again.

1) Hard to edit, and it is not recommended. Requires to take control of the title bar window procedure! The user expects window to be minimized when pressing X. Better use FindWindow to implement a simple mechanism which switches to app window instead of starting a new copy.
2a) Problems with title bar and Start Menu location? Do not compile using commandline or for "windows CE-something" platform. Use "Pocket PC 2003"!
2a*) If eVC++ IDE doesn't work, give it SP3! Mine had problems, I installed the pack and it works fine now.
2b) Create a menu with one or two items. WM (at least 5) will make it automatically softkey-based.

Thanks in advance!

It should have come with the cable. You need a USB to Mini USB cable, the V3 looks the same, but the Motorola cables are slightly different, so it will not sync data.

Hey Everybody!
Great Idea of making this great forum a little more usable..
Well, I have a HTC Diamond with the latest Opera Mobile 9.5 (Build 1522) and I bought a software to learn vocabularys (Danish :-))which is *.html based. It works fine except for instead of just playing the mp3 file (to learn the correct pronounciation) it opens it to download (of course I could play it in the media player, but that takes a lot of time). So my question is:

Is there any sort of plug-in like quicktime for Opera Mobile, Opera Mini or Internet Explorer or any Mobile Browser that has that native ability to play mp3-Files?

Thank you all!

It can be done, read the wiki I thinkit's there somewhere, maybe in wm5 or wizard reg tweaks.
But, why??? It's already be 'proven' that the battery lasts longer if it is charged more often, or do you have another reason, if so, go ahead.

My phone is Dopod D900, and I searched a lot to find a Manilla VGA dailer skin for it (WM5), but got nothing.( They all do things just for QVGAs.)
So I decide to make my own VGA skin based on the built-in Video Talk program. And at least for myself it looks awesome, I want to share with everyone who is interested in use a skin with Manilla's look and lower memory and storage consuming after finishing it .
Currently it works good except a tiny problem, that is , the caller picture location and size can't be changed in dialog 22500,2250 (progress dialogs) in phcanrc.dll ,whatever i do it stays there. (see the last pic attachment.)
Please if anybody knows how to fix it , PM me or reply this thread, Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I have a HP 614c that has a built-in hardware numeric keyboard (just like a phone) but one thing they left out is a D-PAD. This is proving to be quite anoying, as I cannot move the cursor left or right when writing a mail or sms (always have to use the touchscreen and it is difficult most of the time to position it exactly where needed) and also there are a lot of games using the D-PAD for navigation.

Is there any way that I can remap other hardware buttons to simulate the left-right-up-down of the D-PAD?

Thanks a lot.

I know I saw a picture somewhere of a dialer or dialer skin with a slide-down cover of the buttons during the call. I am asking for this because it happens to me quite often to touch the screen with my face and accidentaly press a button (especially the mute button) without even knowing. Having this "cover" that you can just slide down with the finger when you need the buttons is the best idea for my case.

Does anyone know of such a skin or a dialer?

Thanks.

Just press the power button, the screen will lock

What I really want is to have the buttons hidden somehow by default with the possibility to make them appear when needed. And also I would like to see the call timer just to be able to tell if the call got disconnected or how long it's been.

I'm always suprised by how few people seem to know this, and are trying to fix something that's not broken :confused: -

Pressing the power button=
call stays connected,
screen goes off,
buttons are locked but the volume button stays active/responsive,
toggle the power button on/off to view the screen or lock it.

Hi. Thanks for the tip. I've started using this since your previous response as being the closest to what I want. I would still prefer something easier. It can be quite annoying to press the power button every time after I initiate a call, then press it again when I want to view the status of the call, then press it again when I go back to the call (which takes longer than just taking a quick look at the screen to see if you're still connected). The idea of having all the controls hidden until you need them but still display the call status would save a lot of button presses not to mention that it would be quicker and easier for the user.

Thanks.

OK,
How about Matt Arstrong's Device Lock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=261277)?
You can configure the inbuilt device lock to keep the screen on and unlock with one button press.
Also
Dleta Lock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275065) is a similar (better? ) configurable lock which keeps the volume keys active, but the unlock doesn't work on my trinity, but worked fine on my wizard (I've no knowledge of other phone's compatibility)

What's up people?!? First let me say, if this is in the wrong section, I'm sorry. XDA is a huge Forum, it's kind of hard knowing exactly where to post. Saw this as a general questions thread and thought I post here.

Here is my problem though. I own an I-mate 9502 with the 6.0 ROM that came with it. I haven't updated it or done anything to it. It had a few problems here and there but nothing too serious. I dealt with it. I was pleased with the phone for a while. But on 26th of September was when it started giving problems; I tried using a new theme. I put the tsk file where it should be (Windows Folder)..and it was all good. Even though, the theme never worked. Why?..I don't know. But moving on, so I decided to do a soft reset. This right here is the problem. The phone would reboot, but whenever I put in my password to unlock the phone (not the SIM unlock), it would freeze. I'd do a soft reset again..and the exact same thing will happen. Took the battery out for a while, put it back, turn it on..and the same thing. Sometimes, the phone even hung during a reboot from a soft reset.

So I got scared, thinking I had messed something up real good, did a hard reset and everything was back to normal again. I Installed the following applications; Rescoe File Explorer 2008 (everything that came with it; today plug-in, registry editor, explorer, FTP), TranCreative Magic Button, SpB Backup. The last program I installed was the Rescoe File Explorer though. For the first day and a half after installation, the phone was ok. Morning came, tried to sync files, and I got a "rapiclnt" error. I forwarded that to Microsoft as usual. Few minutes later, the phone froze. It started doing what it was doing on the 26th before I did a hard reset. Even when I disabled the lock function so I didn't have to put in a password when the phone rebooted. It would boot up fine, put in my pin number and after a few minutes freeze again. Even without putting in my unlock password.

See, I'm not trying to do a hard reset again. I'm asking if anyone knows why this happens and can help me out, I will greatly appreciate it. Any help whatsoever.


Thanks,

Shawn.

Hi,

I have one software which is designed for running on touch-screen WM6 professional device, which needs stylus to control it. There is no non-touch screen version of this software.

I also want to run this software on my Imate SPL which is WM6 smartphone, by using a small software named "Fake Cursor" to control the software.

The problem is when I run the software on my iMate, the software display do not fit within the windows. It seems to display larger than 240x320, even the software is designed to run on qvga resolution. So I can see the content partially. However, I can control the software by Fake Cursor without (well, with certain) problem.

Is there any way to trick the software to display correctly on my smartphone?

Thanks

All SD cards must support Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM) which means all SD cards must have a Media Key Block. The Media Key Block is a table (an array of up to 65,636 rows and 16 columns) containing seemingly random values. All cards must also carry an indelible 64-bit Media ID.

The question is, how can a Windows Mobile application read CPRM data from an SD card? As far as I can tell, to use CPRM at all implies there must be some straight forward method to retrieve the key block and the ID. I think this would be useful even if I don't plan to implement CPRM encryption. For example, I want to use the unique Media ID as a tamper-proof way to identify different SD cards.

Hi All,

I am trying to figure out how to completely remove the windows mobile shell. In essence, I want to get rid of the (wm equivalent of) explorer.exe, outlook (messaging, not just the account), contacts, start menu, phone, absolutely everything.

I am going for this for two purposes:

o A total conversion pack that replaces all functionality (something I want to do in my own time, write a GUI framework etc. that is more finger friendly).
o Getting HaReT to run (OpenMoko) at boot with minimal memory (RAM and Storage) consumed by wm.

Obviously, I would still need essential services, like SMS, Phone, etc. but everything else must go.

Any ideas? I got the emulator kitchen and started looking at that, but I am blank. I also searched the forums, google, and nothing comes up with how to remove the shell.

I know this is topical and some may think it's a dumb idea, but to me it's a challenge.

Hey guys,

I've been trying really hard to get a games folder or button in my programs launcher, but the menu doesn't exist under Spb Customise Menu.

I can only Add "My Menu" and then under that a games directory, but i've read many other posts where people say they have it already in their Customise menu list and just need to tick the box to get it.

I'm currently using Greatbal's Diamond theme for SPB MS 2.1 on an HTC Touch Dual.

Any suggestions?

I'd really like to have one folder with all my games as some have installed in weird places (when I haven't been able to tell it where to install).

Any help or advise is appreciated.

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the bottom tabs on TF3D from their default. For example, the phone comes with Home, People, Messages, Mail, Sprint TV, weather, etc. on the bottom scroll. With TF3D I can reorder and remove tabs. What I'd like to be able to do is to create a new one.

For example, I don't need the music tab on the bottom scroll. I can remove it with TF3D but I can't find a way to remove music and replace it with MS Excel.

Is this possible?

If you check the properties of the files you will see that all are .lnks to .exes elsewhere. You can easily delete them with no problems, however, if you later want them it's annoying. I would move them all to another folder on a sd card or something

I've been trying to make my program respond to keyboard events. The D-Pad keys can be easily mapped listening for the WM_KEYDOWN message, but the green and red keys don't work the same way.
How can I be notified if they're pressed and prevent the system from catching them (i.e. make them not open the dialer (in the case of the green key) or minimize to today screen (in the case of the red key))?

Thanks a bunch :P

I've made a small program that maybe useful for everyone. What is does: Enable your bluetooth when the AC is plugged in and disable the bluetooth when the AC is pulled out. This is nice if you have a powered car-kit, your bluetooth will be enabled when you set your device in the carkit.

It should work on every Windows Mobile phone. You'll have to have .net 3.5 installed.

I don't have the answer you are looking for. However, I do have several programs that need to be registered, and I can tell you how I took care of them. The first place to look is the registry. Take a program that is unregistered, install it, and backup the registry. I use ceregeditor (http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/), but there are other choices. Then immediately add the registration key, and then compare the new registry to the just saved registry. There will be a several changes in the registry (most of which are constantly changing). Hopefully one of those differences would be your software.

However, not all programs store the registration information in the registry. Some programs right files in various places. My experience indicates the most common place is the windows directory. If you look at the files in the directory (after saving the registration information), and sort based on when the files were modifiied, then hopefully the last modified file is the file with the registration information. Other place I have found is the program files folder, and the application data folder.

Is there anyway to kill Manila2D prior to opening specific applications?
I am running m2d on the mogul and love how it performs, however when I open Opera it just sucks up so much memory, so i would like to kill it via a script or something if possible.

Is there a mortscript for it? I searched for it but could not locate anything.
Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to install a rom from the Storage Card. I have a broken usb connection on my Wizard and the only I can charge the battery is using a desktop charger. Is it possible to install a Rom via Storage Card on a Wizard if so how?

Hi there :)

I'm having a sort of mind boggling issue: I somehow lost all sound with the FMRadio on my Polaris. Every other app I use gives me loud and clear sound... through headset or internal speaker, but whatever I try, i get NO sound with the FM app...

I'm running an official wm6.1 Rom (french SFR, last update), and no, FMRadio is not set to 'mute' :) I've tried messing around with the registry, or find some faulty string in the audioparam files, without any success...

Any Idea from you genius here?

Hi,
i have a question about the settings for mail.

In Messaging --> Menu --> Tools --> Options --> Storage I can enable to store attachments onto the storage card.

On my device I have this "Extended Storage" enabled, where the mobile operater stores its standard *.cabs with are installed after a hard reset. I deleted this cabs and installed some software into this, because my prophet's internal memory is not that much. This "ExtStorage" is in the file explorer seen as a storage card. And this is my problem:

Pocket Outlook only allows me to store the attachments into the Extended Storge and not into the bigger Storage Card. So it doesn't expect a device with more than one SD card.

What can I do to store the attachments onto the SD card?

hi guys!

I've got a short question:
I installed manila 2D with the last HTC Camera Album. When I now want to see a video it is shown fullscreen landscape turned to the right, but the control buttons are shown the other way round.
So my video is shown upside down, or my controls are drawn upside down!

Any solution?

ruebyi

Edit.: and one more thing: until Manila I watched my Videos in *.avi, but now I have to use something else, because HTC Album only accepts 3GP, MP4 or WMV... What should I use? Wich format has the best quality and less MB's?

How can I detect when a new sms arrive?

Is there a particular reg key?

[l3v5y]

How can I detect when a new sms arrive?

Is there a particular reg key?
There is a registry key

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread]

The count value gives the number of unread SMSs.

("HKCU", "System\state\messages\sms\unread", "count")

There is a registry key
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread]
The count value gives the number of unread SMSs.

Thanks to both....;)

Now a little question:
....knowing this reg key, (through Mortscript) how can I launch a program everytime a new sms comes?

MessageCount = Regread ("HKCU", "System\state\messages\otheremail\unread", "count")
If not (MessageCount = 0)
Soundfile = "\alarm2.wav"
Vibrate (100)
Playsound(soundfile)
Endif


that's my email notification, should be easy to edit for your own use

I will edit this script for my own use....

What about device memory? Will this script (always running) consume a lot of memory?

sorry, I don't know. I didn't keep it running continuously.
I would advise looping / running itself again rather than using while conditions, in my experience, while slows ppcs the most.
btw either here or on mort's forum someone explained how to write scripts more efficient, quicker & less memory hungry. Sorry, I don't have a link

Hello All
My name is Sean, currently a new owner of what I am being told is an HTC Juno unlocked (please be kind not 100% sure but has skyfire and Windows 6.1) T-mobile shadow.

OK I know this questions were asked but had a hard time and the search kept taking me to the excalibur thread.

1) Where should a newbie start? When I modded Windows and Linux boxes i started with simple tweaks more then mods and graduated to more hardcore mods and true backward engineering.

2) I downloaded the manual for my version but it seems the manual is so dreadfully out of date I might as well be reading a Windows 3.x for the pc manual. So where is a current one that I can download and learn the basics. I downloaded one I can not indentify the version of Windows but it is no where near the same.

3) On a desk top pc I would type Winver to get the version of windows what is the Juno's version of this?

4) I know with the data cable WM5torage works great but my pc does not see it via blue tooth other then a network internet sharing device. Am I so lost that I am doing something completely wrong?

5) Is there speed tweaks to speed up the boot up of the phone?

6) I tweaked not moded a Nokia 5310 which I can already tell the Juno is 100k different. What language is the backgrounds, My favs, Texts and such written in ?


Sorry if a lot of this is repeats but after 100 pages and failed searches (I think I used noise words but I am not 100% what the tags are on this site yet) I look to others not looking for details just a starting point.


Thank you all and I hope to be an active member like I am in the Opensource community

Hi,

I searched for this but couldn't find an answer.

Now that Android is open source, is it possible to install it on any compatible device (all windows mobile?) once the hardware is known and 'drivers' are available?

Thanks, and I hope that this question isn't too stupid

anyone please . . .

im really confused about this one . . .

[l3v5y]

anyone please . . .

im really confused about this one . . .
The HTC Touch is for GSM networks (AT&T, T-Mobile...) The Sprint Touch is CDMA (Sprint etc).

The CDMA version (HTC Vogue) has a faster processor, and GPS. It's also slightly larger.

The GSM version (HTC Elf, Elfin) is the smaller, but has a slower processor, and no GPS.

Just a quick which I cant seem to find the answer to. I have an MDA Vario iii. I have setup an exchange server with my Outlook for Push Email. Very happy with it etc etc. I have just recently purchased some webspace and it to has an Exchange Server for email.

Is its possible to set up two Syncs on the Vario iii for 2 different push emails? If not, is this possible with the BlackBerry Curve (or the new BB Storm being released soon)

Ideally, its not about having an awesome gadget anymore, its bout staying in touch and getting my necessary emails anytime, anywhere.

Thanks in advance...

Hello,

I'm rather new on the forum and I have a question about rom cooking.
I have a Touch Cruise (Polaris) device and I'm interested in cooking my own rom.
I have one question regarding that point.
My understanding is that ROM files are NBH files and it is possible to extract their content with the NBHExtract tool.

However, how the NB files can be handled? Is it possible to extract their content and see the files inside?
If yes, how can this be performed? Which tools should be used?

Thanks in advance.

SOLVED : information given by Kicou :) - Use of Imgfs Tools
