Hi All,

after a pile of googling, I'm still trying to find an application which will send an sms based on an email and vise versa, so when the phone receives an e-mail it sends an sms, and when it receives an sms it sends an email.

Not sure if such an app exists, but i figure this is the best place to ask the question.

Thanks in advance for any help!!

JP.

"Magicall" is an application which meets your requirements as u mentined
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jonponton:
Not quite what I was looking for

Thanks for your reply. I've tried the software you mentioned above, but it doesn't provide the functionality I'm after.

Does anyone else know of any software which will take an email and sms it to a predefined number and also take an SMS and forward it to a predefined email address?

Thanks in advance.

py8's Bug & Feedback：http://www.zn520.com
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Shabudabu:
wm 6.5 for I617
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
From this BBS, it looks like WM 6.5 is indeed out, as of 11/27/09 there has been progress on the issue. They are using WM 6.5 28004 derived from the Qing Shadow DIYROM, and based from the 1115 edition of WM 6.1. More specific log changes and general information could be accessed from the URLs below for those fluent in chinese.

It looks like the issue still stands on the Blackjack II's display problems, having trouble in specific to anything on the OS related to LayeredWindows. This would result in animated icons to become very slow and allow only a black background. Transparent effects will be removed, however, but the core WM 6.5 functions would be retained while overlaid a WM6.1-esque experience. A fix has been issued, changing this registry value:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ GWE]

"EnableLayeredWindows"=dword:1 "EnableLayeredWindows" = dword: 1

This would allow for a smooth experience on WM 6.5, and the Titanium Slide will still function according to the source. Also, they claim to have a bug similar to the i200 on WM 6.5, where you would need to alter Alert_Subtle in the Windows folder of the device, and edit the file via text editor (directions on the BBS for the fix says there would be an option in menu to edit when you are accessing the file, and then you would simply just delete random portions so that the file is read different and save). The problem is related to either a continuously playing ringtone or a ringtone that freezes/hangs (unsure, using Google Translate on this BBS).

I wish I could provide links and a screenshot, but Google Translate only got me this far, I'll need someone to help me test it. In order for me to test it, I'd have to register, and their captcha requires chinese characters to be inputted on the dropdown box..

Also, looks like this BBS is just as anxious as many other i617 owners, waiting for the developer to continue developing a stable release of 6.5. This, however, seems to be the first working implementation, so many congratulations to original poster py8 for the development of Ya-Black 28004 build of 6.5 for the i617! Also, thank you Shabudabu for posting the first link to allow me to deliver this information :)

I was able to download the rom - I got past the captcha (not sure how - I moused over it and it showed english characters). The rom is here:

http://xz.qupan.com/down/wolfishor_5244938.html

Download FlashGet first and click the 3rd red button - it will launch flashget and start downloading it. Hopefully someone can use this - I imagine some language modification will be needed.

You don't need a login to download it or anything.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
Thank you so much for getting this far! Strangely, when I click on the button, it launches FlashGet appropriately, and then it will fail to download it properly..are you using Firefox? I tried downloading with FlashGet 3.3.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] besweeet:
First post.

So I'm a noob with these ROMs and stuff. I usually do iPhone stuff (jailbreaking, unlocking, etc).

So I have a few Blackjack II's (AT&T). How would I go about getting 6.5 on here? Is it too early to have clear-cut instructions?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] besweeet:
Alright so I was able to get the file for 11-27 downloaded. I'm at this screen:

What do I need to do now?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
Funny enough, I haven't been able to get the ROM yet..still had trouble downloading it with FlashGet..would you be able to rehost the file? I'll put it on my account so everyone can get it without going through the trouble, or better yet, attach it on the thread.

You're very close though, but first things first, because the ROM's in chinese (at least according to the screenshots), best to find a way to translate or change the default language to english and then install/make modifications to make 6.5 more stable.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cjohnson6965:
I've got the rom hosted here:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R112OM65
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] besweeet:
Someone just posted it to MegaUpload :).

The ROM should have a settings for English, right? Do you happen to have Skype? I'd like to get 6.5 on this thing soon ;).
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
Yes, I do, but sadly I'm tied with some things tonight. Tomorrow I'll be on here and there, but I know that you will use the bin file to flash the phone..just forgot which of the three you would have to choose. I used the official i617 6.1 ROM updater which had a similar flasher, but of course the three files were chosen by default and didn't need much intervention.

EDIT: i617 6.1 Thread

The OP has posted on this particular thread some instructions in a thread attachment to update cooked/custom ROMs for the i617.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] besweeet:
Hmm... I would stick the 6.5 .bin file into the phone section of the program, but I'm afraid it's going to erase all the things that are currently on the device, such as contacts.

Speaking of contacts, is there an alternative to Outlook when it comes to syncing them? I just need to back those up somewhere. I have Office 2010 (public beta) and the Windows Mobile Device Center app doesn't seem to think that it's installed.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
Yes, during a ROM update, you will have to backup all information you have on the phone, photos, music, contacts, etc.

My Blackjack 2 has a list of tools/utilities you can use before you proceed with your flash.

My update is that I'm having minor difficulty letting the flasher file detect my phone, it claims that the device is not found when it's in download mode O.o so I did factory reset and trying again. Will update to see how things are soon.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] besweeet:
Thanks, although the BlackJack 2 I'm working with doesn't have internet access. Unless I swap SIMs with my iPhone 3G... Actually, I'll install Office 2007 + WMDC onto another computer to backup my stuff. The only thing I need to back up are all the contacts. All the music is stored onto the 4GB MicroSD card.

Looking forward to your result. Don't forget to provide instructions for n00bz when youre done :p.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
I've been trying to run the image downloader, but all I get is [PDA]Device Not Found as an error. Strangely enough, the stock WM 6.1 updater doesn't pick up the device even though I've reinstalled the drivers and rebooted. I've also ran the updater on an XP machine to no avail.

I'm sort of at a loss, and uncertain why even the WM official 6.1 ROM upgrader cannot detect my device. This is done when in download mode or on modem mode in USB settings. Any expertise in this category?

EDIT 12/24/09 2:16 AM: Okay, so I've gotten the device to flash back to 6.1 WM just to see if I can ensure connectivity between the device for specifically ROM upgrading. Looks like it's doing fine. I'm going to finish this reflash and then try again once it's done reflashing to use the i608 installer for the 6.5 ROM. Phew..what a night.

EDIT 12/24/09 3:40 AM: No luck still, the phone in Download Mode cannot be detected by the i608 ROM downloader. I've ran it on a virtual machine, yet it would not even see the device. I'm at a total loss as to why I'm able to ROM update 6.1 official but the installer refuses to recognize my device's existence. If anyone could point us in the right direction, can you explain or assist in why the ROM downloader does not recognize my device despite my numerous attempts to reinstall the drivers?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cjohnson6965:
Seems to be working for me - I just put the phone in download mode (back + vol up + power on) while the updater app is running and it pops up. Did you have activesync installed, but the activesync process (wcescomm.exe + wcesmgr.exe + rapimgr.exe) NOT running? That's important.

I've got it loaded - I'm working on looking to see if there are any other languages built in.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] princedwi:
I'll try later today to see if I can get activesync on the virtual machine or my XP rig then and use the activesync killer program. I take it win7 won't suffice then right? Haha..

Also, Merry Christmas everyone =) I'm glad to be working with all of you on this fun project!!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cjohnson6965:
I've never had luck with Win7 and rom flashing - always had to use XP.

I've got the ROM loaded, and I was able to change the language to US English. Unfortunately, it only changed a few of the menus to english - most are still in chinese. I'm going to unpack the rom and see if I can't change it over more fully. I'm not that great with it, though - have no idea if it will work.
[Touch GSM General] dtran707:
Hi,

I have an HTC Elfin that has no problem connecting to a home network with WEP encryption. But at work, I cannot connect to the network with WPA-TKIP encryption. My phone just tries to connect for a few seconds and then the status of the access point goes back to "available". I've verified the network pass phrase, as it does work with my co-worker's netbook. What is the problem here?

BTW, I've been reading up on this problem and somebody mentioned the fix of turning on/off the wifi (turn on wifi, connect, turn off wifi and then on again), but it doesn't work for me:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=327928
[Touch GSM General] kwbr:
Try to set wifi to best performance instead of best battery first.

Often the problem is also caused by a combination of the router (brand/type) and a Windows based device/computer.

Some things you can try to get a working connection with WPA-PSK enabled:

1. Modify the registry:

\HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValidateServerCert=dword:00000000

2. Modify the network settings:

Settings > Connections (tab) > Wi-Fi > Network Adapters (Tab)

and select "NE2000 Compatible Ethernet Driver" (maybe you have to config a static ip-address).
[Touch GSM General] dtran707:
Thanks for the suggestions. I did all those, except for the static IP since our network admin doesn't provide one. It still doesn't work. One thing I'd like to understand is that in my case, why does the WPA-PSK connection work for the standard Windows environment (laptop/netbook, desktop) but not Windows Mobile? What could be the difference?
[Touch GSM General] sbettencourt:
I don´t know what ROM are you using, but if it is some of 23XXX Builds, disconnect first the Bluetooth and then connect the Wireless... Should work now...
[Touch GSM General] dtran707:
My ROM is MK_872_05 WWE, from chota_shivaji. It uses WM6.5 CE OS 5.2.21872. Thanks for your suggestion. I will try it out on Monday when I get back to work.
[Touch GSM General] dtran707:
I disconnected the Bluetooth connection and tried again to the WPA-PSK encrypted access point at work and it still doesn't work. Just yesterday at a relative's place, I was able to connect to his router with WPA security. I think there's something different with the one at work which does not work with Winmo devices.
[Touch GSM General] crapula512:
at work do u just have a password or a user/password? are u using certificates?
[Touch GSM General] dtran707:
At work I have a guest username and password that I can use to log in for the WIFI access point. The password changes every week, but I confirmed that I used the latest one. But I don't think there's a certificate needed since my co-worker is able to use his home netbook to log in without anything else except the same username and password.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] psyon:
I guess I assumed any roms cooked for the wizards would have wifi support, is this not the case?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] psyon:
Well, I went to the TNT Rom for 6.1 and have wifi again.
[HD2 General] Lennart88:
Ok this is starting to annoy me now.

Every time I boot up my phone, it IMMEDIATLY wants to connect. Obviously, since I haven't giving my password in, so no phone service is available yet, it fails.

So every single time I boot my phone I get to see this message (see picture below). The only way to get it gone, is to press Negeren (Ignore).

Is there a solution that doesn't immediatly wants to connect, but waits with connecting when the phone actually has service to connect?

Thanks, Lennart

(Quick translation of the picture: The modem on the other side has disconnected. Tap settings to check the connection settings and change if neccesary)

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattchewie:
So I know to remove all the HTC and Sprint software I'm supposed to need root.

Now, I don't need to load a custom ROM correct? I can just get root and then remove?

Also, I should be able to use nandroid to take a backup or the current state of my phone if I wish to revert back?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esoteric1311:
Yes to all questions.

Its up to you if you want a ROM or not. But if you root, and would like future updates, you would have to flash a ROM that incorporates the updates, such as the long awaited 2.0 or 2.1; the other alternative is to un-root to update. The only caveat to that is the exploit may be patched with the update.

After you root, take a nandroid backup in case you remove something important. You'll go back to the stage after rooting but prior to removing applications and such.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattchewie:
Thank you for the quick reply esoteric!

That pretty much answers most of my questions! I was going to use directions from "the unlockr". Would the community suggest this as a good source or is there a more suitable link here on xda?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orangeandblue302:
unlockr is a great step by step guide to follow. There are also a few guides on here. If you like visual aid Unlockr has great videos.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thorasaurus:
guide

You could probably just use the search feature, but this guide should have the info you need to remove the bloatware. Guide here. Not to proselytize for using a ROM, but some at least optimize the sprint apps if you do want to keep any. I know Freshrom does for sure.

Cheers.

Hi,

I've just flashed my ROM and decided to restore programs/settings from a backup made with SpbBackup2 from Christian's Rom. My problem is now when i start my phone i can't unlock it because my pin is incorrect. I've always used the same pin since getting this phone and have no idea what the pin would be! I've tried everything i could think of. Any ideas?

I imagine i can take the sd out and add the ROM to it and reflash the rom but i really want to retain all my programs/data from my 130mb backup.

*edit* In SpbBackup2 i used the options full restore > normal mode > all settings

The touch pro 2 USB socket broke... (the 11 pin one)

and it is out of warranty.

They are demanding $300 to get it fixed.

Does anyone know of some other way I can get this phone fixed at a much cheaper price?!? Please!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kabuk1:
How exactly did it break? Did the whole socket come unsoldered or did the little tab thing just break off? The tab broke off on my old Mogul & I just superglued it back in. VERY carefully. It worked just fine afterward, the tab is just there to support the pins.

If the whole socket broke off, all I could suggest is finding a friend who's really good at taking stuff apart & soldering. I would do it(used to do micro-soldering for Hitachi) but I live in OK.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] da9th_one:
$300.00...?!?! That's insane...when the same happened to my mda, I purchased a battery charger from cellphoneshop.net, that charged the battery without the phone...I searched their site and was unable to locate one for the tp2

I don't know how big bellevue, wa is, or if its close to a larger metropolitan area. If so, I would look on craigslist and search for "cell phone repair". I had my mda screen repaired by a company I found on there, pretty cheap....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Fuzalert2k:
Alright, thanks guys... but is there like a place where I can mail-it in to get the phone repaired? Craigslist isn't really helping. The phone charges, but I can't connect it to the computer via USB or use any headphones. Also, there are other MAJOR problems caused by this broken socket (it won't boot unless I have a USB adapter plugged in, and that it remains in headphones mode). The black clip came off, but it's kinda impossible to glue it back in.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hardcoreplur:
