1. How to configure Hotmail's Pop3 Access in default messaging application of Windows Mobile without using Windows Live?

Solution: Create a new email account as usual and use these details:

Step 1:

Email Address: Your email but dont use @hotmail.com, instead use something else like htmail.com or something like that. Please not that this is only necessary if your email address end in @hotmail.com. Other Windows Live users dont need to do this.

Password: Your Password.

Step 2:

Uncheck the checkbox : Try to get e-mail settings automatically from the Internet

Step 3:

Select "Internet E-Mail" as your service provider.

Step4:

2. ActiveSync Starts up Again and Again Automatically Even When the Phone is Not Connected to USB cable or Bluetooth

Solution: It happens for some strange reasons that i haven't been able to find but for now there is a workaround for it.

For Users who use Exchange server with ActiveSync will have no problem if they have set the update schedule to manual. Otherwise, if you are using the push mail feature of exchange, then ActiveSync will run all the time for syncing and that is very normal.

For User who dont use Exchanage server, they should create a fake server and then set the update schedule to manual to prevent ActiveSync from running on its own. Here are the steps for that.

First of all, configure ActiveSync with your PC if you want to sync with PC using the usual method. After that:

1. Open Activesync on your phone and from the menu choose Configure Server...

2. Enter any email address. Clear the checkbox titled "Attempt to detect Exchange Server Settings Automatically". Click Next.

3. In server address, enter localhost or anything else. Click next.

4. Enter any username, password and domain name. I mean random strings. Also check save password checkbox.

5. Clear all the checkboxes in the "Data you want to synchronize" list. Click Finish.

6. Open Menu>Schedule. Here set both the dropdown lists to "Manually" and clear both the checkboxes. Click OK and close ActiveSync.

Plus as an additional step, delete the unneeded notification for Active Sync. To do that :

1. Open DotFred's task manager (Task Manager 2) and go to the Notifications tab.

2. In "Notified Programs", search for repllog.exe. You will most probably find 3 entries for it.

3. Scroll horizontally and out of these 3 or what ever entries, find those which have the entry "AppRunAtTimeChange" or "AppRunAfterTimeChange". Delete these entries, using the third icon from left on the bottom toolbar.

ActiveSync wont give you any problems after this.

3. Audio Booster doesn't allows entering Equalizer settings and checking the equalizer checkbox + Missing Audiobooster Option in Audio Managers Menu

Solution: This is not a problem and happens with some versions of AudioBooster and Audio Manager, if their version numbers are different. To resolve it :-

Just start AudioManager, let it build its library a little and then play a song for minimum 5 seconds. After that start AudioBooster, adjust one of its sliders a little. Then soft reset your phone, and both the problems will be solved. What happens is, they create their respective registry settings on first start and after that everything is fine. In Original ROMs from HTC, since on first boot the Customization applications runs, it sets up the registry itself. But even with that, you have to reboot your device anyway. :)
