<Please note that this was done on a ppc with windows mobile 2003 - Ipaq H1945, however since this tip is NOT really device specific - it should work across the board with ANY windows mobile device...>

If you are experiencing slowness, crashes, and more horrific things on your ppc, etc.., it could be a problem with Multiple gx.dlls - that's right - if you have games, etc.. Each may have have their own gx.dll, which overall slows down the system, creates crashes, etc.. So how do we fix this?

By hacks, etc.. I mean Registry Tweaks, hack utilities, etc..., However we will replace ONE file - the gx.dll for one I found to be more stable from astraware's game glyph...

First, and foremost Backup your device...

Then download Total Commander - http://www.ghisler.com/

From there - Open up Total Commander - you should be on folder / or basically the root folder - please keep the storage card intact, and if necessary repeat the following if one has multiple cards, etc...

Next open up the menu File - and select Find Files

In the Search Box type without quotes "gx.dll", when done click ok, search, etc...

Now when it's done - in the upper Right corner there is a button named ctrl, click it. Now select one by one all the gx.dll files you see except for the one in the windows folder. After which go to file - Delete - click ok/yes to continue...

Reboot your ppc...

After Which - download the gx.zip attachment below. Unzip...

Now hook up your ppc to your computer - open up My Computer - Windows Mobile - Windows. From there replace the gx.dll file, and overwrite with the one you unzipped. Reboot your ppc...

After this little handy tweak - Graphics should stablize, system should become more stable - quicker speed, etc...

Hellow

I have big problem with my application in evc++.

I connect PDA with PC via USB (PDA Client - PC Host)

My application can`t open COM9: assigned to serial USB ;( but when I open first wceusbsh001: on PC then PDA can open corectly.

Maybe CreateFile('\\wceusbsh001:'.... activate com9: on PDA?

Why programaticly simulate this operation on PDA?

Additional: When I open wceusbsh001 and next close them, COM9: is open correctly.

I have two PDA with this problem exist but I have PDA without this problem (COM9: open corectly)

This is the start of a regularly updated collection of Cabs. I have tested each one of these cabs myself on a T-Mobile Wing, WM6.5 ROM. All of them have tested to be working without the need for extensive hacking, 98 percent of them are one-click cab installations. I will provide instructions for the ones that are not. All of these cabs are free to use.

The listing of cabs is on the next post to conserve space for a larger list of cabs. Most cab files will have their own post with their own screen shots and descriptions. I will update the next post with links to each cab post. Cab files will be located on their respective posts or on my personal SkyDrive. This will eliminate waiting times on other file servers.

Recent Updates:

Update (6/8/2009): Opera Mobile has been updated to 9.7 Beta 1.

Update (6/5/2009): Added HTC MP3 Trimmer

Update (6/3/2009): Added MyMobileR Screen Recording App

Update (6/2/2009): Skyfire has been updated to 1.0

Questions, Comments, and Requests are Accepted and Appreciated

If you would like to post a cab. You can either PM me with the Cab and I will test it and take screenshots and add it to the post, with due credit of course. Or you can test it yourself and post screenshots. Please only post screenshots you have taken yourself. Also, I request that you follow the format of my current cab posts to the best of your ability. I will update the main list when needed.

All of the screenshots have been taken by me, and I have not taken any from other posts or websites.

AIM Mobile

AIM for Windows Mobile is possibly one of the most fully functioning AIM applications on the Windows Mobile platform. It's tabbed interface gives a person easy access to multiple conversations at once.

Some complains I have against the application:

The application can be a bit slow at times and sometimes unresponsive. The interface as appealing as it is to me, is not very touch friendly. Even with TouchFLO/WM 6.5 addons, it uses its own menu system, thus, they do not work together very well.

Also, Keep in mind that this app cannot use your SMS/MMS connection to connect. So you must use either WiFi or EDGE/GPRS to connect.

[Wing, P4350 General] v5HMeca:
Great idea for a thread. I was actually working on collecting CABs over the last few days. I also made some of my own. We'll see how things go here and I might just post 'em.
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Facebook

Version: 1.0.0.7

The new Facebook app is pretty cool. It is built for the WM6.5 platform, but works on 6.0/6.1 as well. The application is very finger-friendly to use, and it gives you a lot of tools at your fingertips.

My complaints:

I don't have too many of them... The app runs nicely, but where's the Facebook IM? I'll have to update this thread with the IM App because they didn't include it in this one.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Google Maps

Google Maps

Version: 3.0.1.6

By far the best Mapping application for Windows Mobile. There's a lot of features I love about this application:

My Location: Finds your location within 100 meters using Cell Towers.

Search: Restaurant, Gas, Yellow Pages, etc. It will supply you with addresses and phone numbers. Calling is as easy as clicking a link.

Contact Lookup: If you have addresses listed in your contacts, it's very easy to look them up.

Street View: Look around the place right from your phone.

Traffic View: Shows traffic and routes to avoid it.

It is strongly suggested you consider purchasing a data plan if you plan to use this. Unfortunately, you cannot save or print driving directions.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Opera Mini

Version: 4.2

Opera Mini is a really fast and light weight browser. It doesn't have the most fascinating or flashy interface in the world, and it is actually pretty simplistic. However, this helps a lot on the T-Mobile Wing.

I currently use two browsers on my Wing: Opera Mini 4.2 for the OnTheGo browsing. If I occasionally want to check XDA, or IMDB, or the news. I will use Opera Mini for the speed and rendering of pages on the EDGE connection. My second browser is SkyFire. If I need to see active content for whatever I'm doing. I'll use that. I have a link to it on the first post.

Screenshots:

Unfortunately, it wouldn't let me upload the CAB for some reason, so I zipped it. Just extract it and install the cab as usual.
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Opera Mobile

Version: 9.7 Beta 1

I love the browsing style Opera puts into the Opera Mobile. The zooming is great and the features are great!

Some things I don't like:

It's not as fast as Opera Mini when it comes to surfing on EDGE. It consumes the Wing's memory so fast, as you can see from one of the screenshots.

Updates to 1.0:

-Server assisted Opera Turbo: I haven't seen any flash content as of yet, and it still is not quite as fast as Opera mini.

-Fixed some issues with custom software keyboards

Screenshots:

Unfortunately, this file was too large to put on XDA. You can download both 9.5B2 and 9.7B1 on via:

My SkyDrive.
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Skyfire

Version: 1.0

I have to start by saying... The browsing experience on Skyfire is amazing. It's EXTREMELY fast. I have a feeling if I raced a 3G connection using EDGE on Skyfire I would beat it, but that's just postulating. Full Flash and Active Content, as seen in the screenshots of Youtube. It also plays any other flash content including music from Myspace. Unfortunately, Flash forms don't work, so Pandora is a no go.

Update: With the release of 1.0, the zooming and page surfing ease on EDGE has been better. So far the only downfall that I can see so far is the way that it hogs up phone memory.

Since Skyfire uses a server to compress the pages, which allows faster browsing and full flash, it also gives them the right to monitor what you go on when you surf the web. Not that I really care about that...

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
T-Mobile OZ Communicator

Well... It's the stock IM application that comes with the Wing. I included this for two reasons:

1. People Always seem to ask for it.

2. It's one of the few IM clients that can use SMS and does NOT require a data plan (on T-Mobile).

It's a fairly light weight application, but it's also a little slow because it uses SMS and not a data connection. It only has one major IM protocol (AIM)... I say that because ICQ and Yahoo IM aren't very popular right now.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Google YouTube

Version: 2.0.14

This is one of the most recent mobile applications coming from Google. It doesn't necessarily have as many features as the HTC Youtube application, but it is a pretty fast application. The browsing through videos has a sort of Cover-Flow approach to it. You can use your finger to browse through, or press the arrow buttons themselves. The application is pretty finger-friendly.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
HTC Album

Version: 2.5

This is possibly one of the best replacements to the Windows Mobile Photo software. It allows a full finger-friendly interface, and provides its own finger friendly menus. You can zoom, pan, etc. Just by using finger gestures.

This version is a bit different than the previous version it seems. It does not automatically go into Landscape when viewing photos, however landscape is still supported if you flip out your keyboard. I'm also not sure why, but videos do not seem to play in this version. I'll look around to see if I can find a better version, but until then here you go.

UPDATE: Those people running the newer versions of Manilla2D on their ROM may experience problems with this. I haven't been able to test this, so if you do, let me know.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
HTC Audio Manager

Version: 2.2

The audio manager floating around in these herald threads seems to be the older 1.* version. Well, it has been updated since then, and it now supports automatic syncing of Album art and Songs with Windows Media Player. It also supports Album Art in general, which is something that the previous version did not support. There's not a lot I can say about this... although I'm wondering why they chose to remove the volume button, you have to use the volume slider on the phone to control the volume.

After you install, you might have to add a shortcut to it to put it in your Programs list.

I would like to give credit to DumpyDooby for putting this together into one single cab.

UPDATE: Those people running the newer version of Manilla2D on their ROM may experience problems with this. I haven't been able to test this, so if you do, let me know.

Pocket Last.FM

Last.FM is very similar to Pandora. Although, I can't say I like it as much as I do Pandora. Pandora is supposed to be coming out with a Windows Mobile version of its popular iPhone application, although myself and a lot of other people have reported a lot of glitches with this application. SO I bring you, the other option.

It is a very simple application, as you can see from the screenshots. It does not have a ton of flashy features, but if you just want to listen to music, it gets the job done nicely. It doesn't play too well over EDGE, so wherever you plan on using it, I would suggest using WiFi. Also this application requires the .NET Framework to be installed, so if you are running a cooked from, make sure you have it. If you aren't, install it.

S2P (Slide2Play)

Version: 0.58

Software Developer: A_C

S2P was designed to give Windows Mobile users the iPhone/iPod touch experience when it comes to music applications. It supports Album Artwork and a CoverFlow interface. Unfortunately, it doesn't organize your music into Artist and Album for you. It just shows your File Folders where your music is located.

It works well with S2U2 (Slide2Unlock2).
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
S2V (Slide2View)

Version: 0.42

Software Developer: A_C

This application appears to provide a very simplistic way to organize photos on your mobile device. It doesn't appear to be able to play videos, although I didn't spend too much time testing this application. I did, however, notice that my images from my storage card weren't showing up. This might have been just a setting I didn't add to the application.

Screenshots:
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Microsoft Office Mobile

Version: 2007

There's not a lot you can really say about Microsoft Office Mobile. It does its job. I know one of the most common complaints is that you cannot create files in the Powerpoint application, you can only view them.

I post this application because a lot of ROMs don't include Office anymore, and some people still need it. So here it is for easy access + Screenshots.

Screenshots:

Unfortunately, I was unable to upload this CAB to XDA, instead I uploaded it to my Windows Live Skydrive, just click Download on the page.

[Wing, P4350 General] Olioaglio:
Hmm, thanks for that, but I just recognized that

the provided cab in post #14 is not the Audio Manager cab

but a second time the HTC Album 2.5 :confused:

Could you provide the correct one for Audio Manager?

[Wing, P4350 General] v5HMeca:
Oh, I just realized that he gave me credit for that version of Audio Manager.

You can find that here: http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/517894/

One caveat:

Both the Audio Manager and the Album versions that are in this thread come from IOLITE, which also contains an older version of Manila2D. In short, the Album and Audio Manager in this thread don't play well with the newest version of Manila2D (the one from Jade).

So if you're a Manila 2D user, don't use the Jade one until either the kinks are fixed or until newer versions of Audio Manager and Album are released. As it turns out, I think herg is already aware of the problems, since he says that he's going to be fixing the errors that everyone is having.
[Wing, P4350 General] apreichner:
Thanks for the information, I corrected the error in the download. I have also updated both of the cab pages to tell them about a possible error, but I would like some further testing on the Wing Manilla ROMs before I change the post entirely.

Sorry, I have not updated the rom collection in a day or so, I have been busy. Going to finish it up soon.

Microsoft MyPhone

With the announcement of Windows Mobile 6.5, also came the announcement of a new Mobile/Server application, Microsoft MyPhone. This application is now available to the Public.

Microsoft MyPhone provides and easy backup/restore service for your phone. It allows you to backup and restore Contacts, Photos, Documents, Text Messages, and more, to a secure server. It is great for people who do constant flashing of new ROMS.

OmapClockPlus

OmapClock allowed us to overclock our Heralds and Wings, but one of the biggest problems to it, was the fact that it had to either be run every time you reset, or you had to add it to the startup entries using another application. OmapClockPlus solves this problem, and allows it to remain Overclocked.

Overclocking the processor can increase the speed and ease of use in a ROM, however it does present a kind of danger to your device. So you should always remain under 290mhz. Also keep in mind the battery life of your device will be affected.

S2U2 (Slide2Unlock)

Software Developer: A_C

Slide2Unlock is a great lock screen application for Windows Mobile. It adds an iPhone like lock screen to Windows Mobile, and it can be integrated well with S2V and S2P. It also has what seems to be an endless row of settings to choose from.

SmartLock adds features to the default Windows Mobile Lock screen, it is not a replacement lock screen. Please note that this is not meant to be used with Slide2Unlock, which provides its own settings. Also, the screenshot of the lockscreen below is not provided with the application itself. That is the WM6.5 Lock Screen. SmartLock can be used on WM6/6.1 but the Use 6.5 Lock Screen option will be grayed out.

CHome Editor

Version: 1.6 Beta

Windows Mobile 6.5 has introduced several new features into its GUI. One of which is the Titanium menu on the home screen. Some prefer to call it CHome because most of the plugins on the screen start with a letter C in the registry, thus the name CHome Editor. This editor will allow you to rename, modify, delete, and hide different Titanium plugins. It also has the ability to create a Titanium Program Launcher.
