Well.. Ive been looking a bit at your source, and .. hmm.. where do i get OpenNETCF without paying? i mean, is it free? it starts with "Open" so in my opinion it is :s

Those banners are blocked by AdBlock Plus. But ill disable it and click now and then when i come by your page, which is in bookmarks :)

Ive noticed:

1: When i use the GP command to the phone, in there top where the start-menu-name-is chances to "Form1" for awhile.. Dont know if that is so or? :s

2: I Tried to put another Simcard in my phone (my moms), my brother which is configured in RTconfig never got the massage? even thoug i let it on for 5 minutes, sent 2 sms'es he still didn't get any sms... Tried soft-reset with moms simcard a few times and still no message to my brother.. changed back to my own simcard, and still nothing.. when i execute gp it works like a charm..

How long should it take for RT to register the new sim and send a message?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Hi!

Search for StartDeviceFramework version 14. This version is opensource.

About simcard you have to insert in Emergency No field a phone number. Of course this number cannot be the same as your SIM card. You have to set the IMSI number too. You can do it clicking in refresh button. Apply configuration and exit.

If everythink is ok, please verify if there is a shortcut to SMSLauncher in \Windows\Startup folder.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ostendk:
Yes, i have Emergency number, but do i have to type the +45 or 0045 before the number? .. And is there a way to enable debug so i can see what the program does when inserting a new simcard?

And yes, i have the IMSI there, and its gryed out sort of.

I have a shortcut there.. and i just made a new one, because ive installed and uninstalled it a few times..

Is there a way to remove it from remove programs, without removing the program?..

---- --- --- --- -------- -------- ------ ---

and thanks for the framework tip <3

i dont understand why you didn't include it in your .sln ? its what they want you to do from now on -- and can't find the installer anywhere..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
I'll compile rt with debug option again for you when I return to my house.

I'm looking for a better solution to install/uninstall RT than cab files. For now you can edit \windows\start Menu\Programs and delete the shortcut.

I don't know if a can share this library or not. I have to read its license again.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ostendk:
If it is the 1.4 version which is open source, i can't see the problem in including it in your project?

- i would be happy to try with the debug enabled :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
You can download the library here:http://rapidshare.com/files/132429377/SmartDeviceFramework14src.rar.html

you can download RT with debugmode on here:http://rapidshare.com/files/132429743/RTConfig.CAB.html

After a softreset, please send this log to me ;)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ostendk:
Will do will do :) of couse on rapidshare.. but iam right at some testing and playing.. :) when in silent mode i cant get the "alarm" function to say anything at all :s
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ostendk:
I did the thing, found that i missed a thing to install - included in zip file :)

installed that, powered on again and it said "changed imsi: no"

installed a new simcard

of what i remember the log was like:

radio:no

xxxx:no

xxxx:no

can send sms: yes

end of log..

unfortunalty i did not get that log as it overwrites .. i can get it again if you want, but that has to wait till tommorow then :)

but the main thing is that the configured number that is not in one of the simcards that i chose to test with, did not get a sms :(

i hope it helps you? :s
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
This log tell me you didn't change the SIM card... Make a test for me:

1 - Insert your original SIM card;

2 - Execute RTConfig, click in configuration then refresh IMSI and save configuration;

3 - Edit your registry and copy to me (please PM, don't put this information in public!) the key: HTML\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\defsmc

4 - Change the SIM card;

5 - Execute RTConfig, click in configuration then refresh IMSI and save configuration again;

6 - Edit your registry and copy to me the key below again.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ostendk:
Funny part is, when doing these testing - it worked :s still want all debug info ? :s

- I can tell that the String is unchanged (defsmc) :)

iam still tryiing with some friends simcards tommorow :)

RT killed my TnTN II :(

First, just a note that I love the idea of the application and it ran OK for a day before application stability issues started. I'm running at HTC TyTN II with HTC WinMo 6.1 ROM and I installed the .NET CF 3.5 and RT V0.10J to my micro SD card.

I'm not sure what changed which started causing the following RT crashes but I can now no longer bring up the RT UI. The following errors are displayed when I try to run RTConfig:

RTConfig.exe

Win32Exception

Native method call failed.

at MAPIUtilities.SafeNativeMethods.DoLogoff(IntPtr& pSession)

at MailStore.Dispose(Boolean disposing)

Unfortunately, this is also preventing me from running the WinMo "Messaging" application so I cannot check email or SMS. Also, ActiveSync starts but then shuts down (a crash I assume). The following is true even after I uninstalled both RT and the .NET CF 3.5. At this point I can't even use ActiveSync to connect my phone to my computer as ActiveSync on the phone crashes and thus will not connect.

I'm guessing there's some remaining settings/files which are causing the issue. After app uninstall, I deleted the orphaned \Windows\StartUp\SMSLauncher entry which was causing errors during phone reboot (You will want to fix that). Please suggest what might be causing email/SMS/ActiveSync instability if I can rectify things without a full ROM re-image.

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
I'm sorry, but RT does not change anything in Pocket Outlook. RT only read the accounts names and fill a combobox, and you can select one to be the default to send answers. So, it's not possible to this application cause this crashes.

I do not use WindowsMobile API for this and use .NET commands. There is an abstract layer exactly to prevend bad uses.

Looking to the stack message, there is an invalid account stored in your device. The error message was sent by cemapi.dll, part of the core system.

I'm not an expert in this situation, but, if you use Outlook to syncronize data with your PC, take a look and try to catch the problem.

I think you already tried to softreset your device, but try to remove the battery for a few seconds and put it back.

Do you have backups, like Sprite Backup? If so, you can try to recover some backup and avoid to lose data.

Please let us know about yours results.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FutureHack:
Hi Joubert,

I never sync email via my PC it's all done directly with servers. The account configured to recieve RT messages was Exchange based with server ActiveSync and the account to which RT sent responses messages is my Hotmail account using the integrated Hotmail client. Both accounts worked well before RT installation and I even recieved RT email responses with these during testing.

Just for good measure, I've done a cold boot by removng the battery and had the same results. Messaging on the device won't start and ActiveSync starts then closes quickly.

How does RT attach itself to WinMo "Messaging" to event on RT messages? Are there registry keys I can check for and potentially reverse? Does the RT .CAB place/replace any files on the device if installed to a storage card? Are you aware of any tricks/utilities to reset Messaging on WinMo?

Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,

Stirling
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FutureHack:
Regained control!

OK, I managed to rectify my issue by disabling "Direct Push" through the Comm Manager. Immediately ActiveSync and Messaging became responsive.

Weird. It's tough to know if this was directly related to RT install or a Red Herring as I usually leave ActiveSync set to "Manually" and I'd modified it to be "As items arrive" during RT testing. Regardless, hopefully this post will help others who may run into this issue.

Keep up the good work with RT. I'm keen to see it run without the crashes. If you put debug logging into the standard releases, I'd be happy to send logs when I see the exceptions.

Hi FutureHack

I could not help notice, that you wrote:

and I installed the .NET CF 3.5 and RT V0.10J to my micro SD card.

Is not the best idea to install on you SD card.

Then your antitheft does not work, then the theft started with selling your SD card :-)

I am sure that Joubert would have mentioned it, if he had see it.

:-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
RT does not change any registry. It creates some registry with RT configurations.

I don't think it's a good idea to install RT in SD because this card can be replaced.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Congratulations! :) I'm very happy for you.

I'm working in version 0.2 and as soon as possible I'll release this version for beta tests. This version will have debug informations. Thank you for your interest ;)

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
I didn't mentioned that. My bad. But you are right. RT MUST be installed in main memory.

I'm looking for a solution to deny this selection in installation procedure. If someone know how, please let me know :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cafrey:
I tried to put the e-mail in the SMS (rt#elt#email@email.com). It worked! :)

But on the RTConfig I have the e-mail address at the right place, and it keeps trying to send to my number...

But that's OK... when I need (hope I won't :p), I can put it in the SMS, it's simple.

And I got another question... the "findme" command, does it need to write down the password? Cause would be better if only with this command you don't need the password, so other people could use it without knowing your passworld, if you know what I mean.

For those who have a HTC TyTN II, I tried on mine and I didn't have problems at all, only that e-mail thing, but nevermind, we can handle it. I tried the SMS change, the "elt", "help", "cb", "go", "alarm", "gp", "findme" and "pb". Everything worked perfectly! The SMS change worked just as it should! :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Very weird. Can you send a printscreen to me?

No, findme command does not ask for password.

Thank you for your tests :) BTW I want to go deep inside your problem.

Cheers,

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jkpwang:
I am using a HTC TyTN II, it worked well.

My only issue was that I had to change a SIM card as the earlier SIM card became faulty. In the RT Config, I can refresh to the new SIM IMSI, but when I tried to 'Apply' and 'Exit', it is not registered. So each time I soft reset, or I power on the unit, a sms got sent out to the designated phone.

Is there any way to update the new SIM card other than a hard reset?

Or did I miss any steps?

Here is a free anti-theft software which could be set up to survive hard reset. I think it's worthwhile taking a look.

smslauncher.exe

Hi,

how can I make sure that RT is running.

As far as I understood RT, RT creates a *.lnk under \windows\startup to start smslauncher.exe.

Unfortunately after some seconds smslauncher is not longer visible within the taskmanager.

I have send some SMS via email (phonenumber@vodafone-sms.de) with i.e. rt#ego#me@test.com#0000 (correct mail, correct password) and got a delivery receipt for the SMS, but I got no response.

If I am using a SMS via email with the subject "rt#ego##0000", I get an reposnse that teh password is not correct. It seems that SMSviaemail adds a \ at the end of the subject. The error message says ""rt#ego##0000\".

If I am using a SMS via email with the subject "rt#alarm##0000" - everything works fine. No error message and I get my sound on my phone.

Any hints ?

With the past several versions, when cooked into my ROMs, after some use and installations smslauncher.exe will error out and doesn't work. I have .Net 3.5 in the ROM... Here's the error

SMSLauncher.exe
UnauthorizedAccessException

Only a Hard Reset will fix it :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xd1936:
Sorry, it was a

error... It happens both on startup because of the shortcut, and on manual launch in /windows. It's just strange because it works for a while, until I've soft reset a few times and installed some stuff. Any known program conflicts?

RT on Kaiser

Hi,

what does the parameter "GPS attempts" exactly means ?

What is the timeframe for the attempts ?

Does RT cheicking how many satellites are reachable ?

Unfortunately "rt#egp##0000" does not send me an email with the GPS info.

"rt#ego##0000" works.

I have tested my Kaiser with GPSTest (1.04) and also with TomTom - both are working.

So, how can I check the GPSsignal.

(I am using 0.10j)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
RT does not run all the time. This software is called by WM when a SMS arrives with 'RT#' in message. This is the good for this program. You don't lose RAM.

SMSLauncher just start, verify if your SIM card was changed and finish.

I didn't test SMS via e-mail. My provider does not have this feature. Try using rttext.exe. Download this file from sourceforge and put it in the same folder as RT.exe. With this file you can make tests without pay anything.

Cheers,

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Take a look in \Application data\AppToDate folder.

Try to remove remotracker.ico and remotetracker.xml files

If you was denied by WM, you can try TotalCommander to delete these files.

But it's very strange, because I copy these files in runtime and not when a ROM is created.

Please let me know about this test.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
No, I have no idea :(

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:

BTW alarm command should works in sleep mode too. I'll try again.

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
This is the number of attemps RT will try to connect to satellites. I do not wait antil next attempt, because I use WM API and this API has its own time.

Sorry, egp send you an email telling you about no connection?

Some users has reporting me problems with GPS connection. In my TODO list I have an item to change how I connect to GPS. Now I use WM to connect and I don't access GPS directly. Others programs uses COM port and has more success then me.

Do you try RT outside or inside some build?

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kuzco1:
Unfortunately I get no email.

I have tested my phone inside a building. In total GPS is working - GPSTest says me that I have 5 satellites and TomTom is also working.

How can i enable dedugging ?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kuzco1:
Cool, it is working. Congratulations - many thanks.

Nevertheless I have tested a little bit more:

1. I have tried the rttest (fake command) with ego and elt - but no answer on my screen

2. ... all other like help, ego, alarm are working

3. I have tried again SMSviaMail.

3a. rt#ego##0000 - answer "password wrong, but I get the battery info"

3b. rt#egp##0000 - no answer

I have checked the difference between a "normal" SMS and a SMSviaMail.

a. Format of a normal SMS:

Name of sender (time):

rt#egp##0000

b. Format of SMSviaMail:

email of sender:/

rt#egp##0000

It seems that the character / at the end of the sender/emailaddress makes the difference that RT does not recognize the correct password. But nevertheless the SMS itself was recognized by RT. This makes me a little bit confused.

The SMS was recognized by RT, but not the password.

It is possible to check this ?

Additionally I would like to say, that the responses via email are stored in the "sent items" folder. I think it makes more sense to delete them also, otherwise the thief knows that something is wrong with the phone :-)

Many thanks for this great program.

In case I can help you, do not hesitate to ask.

Although I am working in a very huge software company, I only can program a little bit in VB6.

Hey Joubert!

I tried again the #elt function, but this time by SMS, rather using RTTest, as I did last time, and it worked!! I didn't specified the e-mail address and it was sent to the right address! That's great!

Got another question:

When my phone gets the message, it turns on its screen. That's ok. But after a minute, it automatically turns off again and then the GPS light (on my TyTN II, an orange light shines when the GPS is on) stops shining too. Is the GPS signal still working, even the light is not shining? (I sent the #elt function, and the GPS should get signal for 2 minutes). Ah, when I turn the screen on, the light comes to shine again...:confused:

I cannot know by using google maps/earth, because at my city, the resolution doesn't let me :( I don't have the precision to confirm, but the line generated by the .KMZ file is a continuous line.

And another one:

Can you replace the title "Form1" by the title "Start" when RT launches? Even it shows for a few seconds, the thief can imagine that something is wrong (the screen just went on with no aparent reason for them, so they'll probably look at the screen). If the title shown is "Start", this title was there before (I'm using WM english version), so it won't change. Think I'm getting you confused, :p

If you don't understand what I'm talking about, I can send you the printscreen.

And it would be even better if it doesn't turn on the screen, if it's possible.

Just some details that will help your program gets perfect! ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] papajohn:
I have a problem here. I am using a P4350 with a coocked WM6.1 ROM and threaded sms.

The thing is that after receiving the thief's number, I try to send some commands via sms. Those SMSs just appear as normal messages on the PPC and no commands are executed. Also, there is no RT process running on the PPC that could intercept messages...

Thnx in advance!

Description:

I am using the 3.29.707.0 (WWE) ROM with some more packages. One of these packages is XDA_JCEspi2005_German_Input_Kaiser. This allows me to have a german keyboard for the WWE ROM.
