LogMeIn is the best program on the Universal, by far.

If you ever needed to access a PC remotely, this plug-in client to Internet Explorer Mobile works so well with the Universal's big VGA screen and your wireless internet connection. It even works decent on GPRS connections.

Based on RemotelyAnywhere and the company behind them, 3am Labs, it's a web-based service that even works through corporate firewalls (provided your company is not blocking logmein.com) to connect your browser on any desktop or Pocket PC to any other desktop that has LogMeIn installed.

If you're a technician to many friends and family members, or clients, you can reach all of them without them having to set up port forwarding, remember IP or DNS names, or performing any complex networking configuration. Both your client and their server software connect to logmein.com and establish a bridge between the two with a LogMeIn account.

Best of all LogMeIn is free for remote control use. LogMeIn Pro is $70 a year, which provides file transfers.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cuteangelika:
Sorry, stupid noobie question...

plus im a girl...

haha.. ignore the last line...

Anyway, just wondering about the ff:

1) Is really just deleting the program from the folder uninstalling it? I was told from the shop that it's that simple... but i had doubts coz coming from a P9 user, shouldnt there be an "uninstall" option for the program? I mean, even we have to do that from control panel on a desktop...

2)Is dragging an app to the storage folder a reassurance that it'll be installed there and it wont save anything on the Main mem? Im worried coz I have only a few mem left...

3) Is there anything such a default memory? Like in P9 where I just had to indicate to always use memstick as the default memory...

Anyway, apologies if these have been posted before. Couldnt find these when i did a search. Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
The HTC Universal (XDA Exec) is my first Pocket PC myself. But here is what I learned so far about this machine:

1) You can install most programs to an SD Card and run them from there, especially games.

Now you might ask yourself, how can I install a program to the SD Card? Again another question I asked myself and learned that as long as you have an SD card inserted in your Universal, if you run an installation file (.exe), your Universal will give you an option of where you like the program installed. So just select the SD card. If you don't have an SD card inserted, this option will not show and it will directly be installed on your MAIN memory. Thus, eating-up your precious memory. So buy at least a 2GB SD card. Don't settle for the 1GB. You will find ways to fill it in time, then you'd wish you got the 4GB.

2) There is a definitely correct way of uninstalling programs from your Universal. You have to go to Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs. Just select the application you wish to uninstall and press OK. This would definitely get it out of the Universal. For uninstalling TODAY PLUG-INS make sure you unchecked them first from the Start>Personal>Today>Items then run the Remove Program. Now you also have to uninstall it from your computer by running the ADD/REMOVE program from Start>Control Panel>Add or Remove Prgrams. Now some applications, even though you went through all these processes will still leave a folder or record on your computer. So go to Start>My Computer>"What ever your drive name is">Programs>"Unhide the folders">"Look for the folder name you want to delete">Delete. Now the program is totally deleted from both your Universal and computer.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cuteangelika:
Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.. Very enlightening indeed, especially the second item. I dont dare to delete/uninstall any app yet for fear that I might cause damage to the system. Also, I noticed my unit going a bit slow after installation. Im a bit scared that Ill be having the same problems others have posted here-- on their universal being turtle-slow or worse-- just dead.

Anyway, thanks again!

".....Now the program is totally deleted from both your Universal and computer."

Your method is the standard procedure for removing program. However, you've to bear in mind that some programs do leave behind files and registry entries.

In such situation, besides executing the standard procedure, it's advisable to use programs like MemMaid, Pocket Mechanic, SKTools etc to do a thorough cleaning of the system too. And on top of this complete it with a manual registry cleaning.

The reason is to minimize the remnants left behind after the standard method of program removal otherwise the registry and memory will get bloated up in no times and slows the entire system down.

Even with all the mentioned methods there'll be still some files and regitsry entries which for some reason cannot be removed. Thus, it is advisable to carry out a hard reset say when there's a noticeable slowing down of the system after frequent removal and cleaning up of the system.

Software compability with WM5 on Universal/Exec/MDA

Hey guys,

Has anyone of you ever try to install Microsoft Money for Pocket PC into your universal ? Is it working ? I'm using 2005 now, i have no problem in installing it, smooth installation. But whenever I try to sync it with my laptop, the active sync will just hangs there. And there is a Process message box pop up saying it's trying to load the database... However, no matter how long I wait, it will never finish loading it... and eventually both my activesync and my Exec freezes.

Does this problem happens with your microsoft money on your universal ?

Any way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance and God bless.

Re: Software compability with WM5 on Universal/Exec/MDA

Installed it on my MDA, and it worked once, but never again. Uninstalled it, and now although it says it's gone, it still shows on my Uninstall Programs list, and if I tell it to remove, I get a soft reset.

I'm ready to hard reset & start over.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Rick GM:
Get a registry editor like PHM or even better resco explorer, do a search for the software name and delete each entry. Much easier than a hard reset.

guys - I have a problem - I have just moved jobs and the new company will not give me local admin rights on my laptop - therefore I cannot install active sync or intellisync mobile or commontime...any ideas that would allow me to sync my universal????
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lie_ui:
You can synch directly to your company Exchange Server. I do my ActivSync this way, directly to the exchange server without involving the desktop. You can synch via Wifi and/or GPRS connection.

To install new program without ActivSync, use the cab file option (most of the time, this is always available in addition to the desktop .exe file mode).

Copy the cab file to your SD Card and run it in the PPC.

It also opens text inside .ZIP, .CHM and .RB files, uncompressing paragraphs on the fly, limiting the amount of memory required (except CHM).

NetFront 3.3

ONe I think you forgot to give a gold star..

Netfront 3.3 browser, it deserves 6 stars !!

I have been tweaking it for about 2 week now and have it down. So I thought you all would like to know that if you set the settings to:

Browsing: Full Browsing

Rendering: Just-Fit

Zoom: 75%

Virtual Canvas: 800x600

Text : Small

Font : Tahoma (Use proportional and Clear type)

With these settings in Landscape, you will be able to view websites like eBay, Yahoo, Yahoo Mail, Google, MSNBC, exactly like a full screen on a computer using a regular browser. Its small but readable for teh most part.

As for bugs or issues.. VERY VERY Few.. The browser is stable as a rock. Although I have noticed pull downs in Yahoo Mail dont ever want to work well. Thats true of some other sites with pull down menus as well. They will work if I up the resolution, or go to Smart rendering over Just-fit but then I lose the full browser feel and everything gets jumbled again. A small in convience to not have to side scroll a webpage.

It also downloads files, runs JAVA, and Media Player inside. Its almost as good as being on a regular computer. Also on a Wi-FI connection it is super fast.

I found this when I was looking for cool apps for a Sony Ericsson phone, and found out that it works well on WM5 (HTC Universal with VGA) and WM2003SE (Motorola MPX220).

It is a bluetoooth and/or Wi Fi remote control, which can control I-tunes, WMP, Powerpoint (Very Cool 8) ), and even locks your PC as you walk away from it.

I would call this a 1, but I am in doubt as to which group to put it in.
