i found 'igo8' to work best on magician.

i use a blue-tooth gps, use standard gps port with the rom, done. no issues and quick.

i can still use my bluetooth car hands free at same time too.

(wwe rom 3.06)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] xenowolp:
I too have problems with my external GPS (sold under T-Mobile NaviGate Bluekit III mouse, but it's Leadtek under the hood) under WWE_O5 , but I think it's more related to the Bluetooth stack

here's what I did

-> add new device

-> Leadtek Bluetooth GPS shows up, next

-> Passcode is prompted, 0000, next

-> Device added, your pocket PC has connected with Bluetooth GPS

everything is fine up till this point, now the GPS shows up under "disconnected"

Now when I single tap it to turn on Serial Port, save and connect it say

CAnnot connect, your device did not connect With Leadtek Bluetooth GPS. The connection failed or the passcode is incorrect

I'm pretty sure it's not the GPS itself since it ran fine with the vanilla firmware

This is pretty much the only thing that keeps me from fully enjoying the rom, though :(
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] poan:
Hello

I'm in the same situation as you. I have tried a large number of settings to get TonTom/ to connect to my BT GPS ( I've tried Holux 236slim firmware 3.1.0, Holux236slim Firmware 3.1.1, Holux1000B). None of them are identified by TomTom. I have also tested a handfull of other GPS applications without any problems, they are running perfect. I,ve resetted all GPS's to factory basis, I've modified baudrates, S/N and so on without sucess. tested with and w/O WM "external GPS"-program. The "external GPS" does anyhow transfer the correct comport to Tomtom.

No sucess. No sucess.

By trying the other GPS alternativs inside Tomtom gps-configuration, I've ben able to for a second been capable to get the GPS signal.

-Something is wrong inside WM6.5 , S100 or Tomtom.

P-O

Edit

After first removing all setting for BT then removing the main battey, getting low capacity in back up battery, reinstalling BT-GPS ( Holux m1000b) i've got the Tontom to connect to the GPS. I've used the port (in Tomtom GPS konfiguration) given by the BT-setting, com 7 in my case. It failed when chozing the port given by the "external GPS#

The installation is not stable. after shutting down the S100 and restarted. It failed and I had to remove main battery again. Now its working.

I do not dare to test with another GPS yet.

P-O

Second edit

I have sucessfully connected all my GPS decvices. Anyhow the connection to Tomtom is more unstable on the magician then on my other phones (Wizard and Herald with WM6.1). Unstable in my case means: loss of connection, have to reinstall GP-device and reboot. Anyhow. I have beiing driving 400 km today without any problems.

Hello all,

Could anybody support me with a registry hack to play the notifications sound in case of a missed call not only ones?

In the settings/sounds&notifications the checkbox for 'repeat' sound is greyed.

Okay here I am setting myself up to be flamed - you see I don't understand what the beef is with Windows Mobile 6.5? I know it is a bit of a gloss job and that there is room for improvement but what is so intrinsically wrong with it that so many people are screaming about it...is it so unusable, or unstable - I know it is not the Apple OS and that I have to say may have its upsides. But what is the big problem.

So go for it shout at me - call me ignorant - but if you can enlighten me please do.

I am about to get an HD2 and am looking forward to the whole experience.

[HD2 General] freyberry:
It looks kinda ugly (not fingerfriendly, no animations), misses APIs for the hardware in modern devices and the UI controls provided by Visual studio are ugly as well, making software development for WM sometimes difficult.

That's it. The list of good things about WM is a lot longer.

All in all, there's nothing wrong with WM except for its reputation in the blogosphere.

It has its pros and cons like every other phone OS. None of them is perfect and iPhone OS or Android are not better than WM at all. They're just different, less powerful but easier to use.
[HD2 General] borgqueenx:
and alot more popular. iPhone has the famous app store, with about 1000 quality games and 5000 quality apps.
[HD2 General] freyberry:
I had no difficulties finding equivalents for every application when I switched away from the iPhone. WM has 30.000 applications as well.

But popularity is a problem.
[HD2 General] geekyhawkes:
I for one am so bored of the apple lovers saying get an Iphone over the hd2. If you want an iphone just get one, its a decent phone if thats what you want. WM6.5 isnt the most finger friendly OS but i think the big/only limitation for the hd2 is the fact it doesnt support our hardware very well in the kernel (which hasnt been updated since WM5 really), so to that end our device is only as slick as it is due to the massive overspec of the processor.

Yes WM7 will be better, but its certainly not a reason to wait and not buy a HD2. This forum has hundreds of threads in the leo section talking about iphone this and that, and frankly i am pretty sure i am not the only one sick of it.

I for one think WM6.5 on the HD2 is more than a decent OS, yes i dont interact with it directly that often but if i need to then i can at least get to the guts easily (file explorer/reg edit etc) which is way more difficult on other mobile platforms.

It isnt perfect but certianly isnt worth all of the chat thats going around atm.
[HD2 General] UberScooter:
I don't want an iphone and too am tired of the iphone zealots - I have been following the Leo since it was leaked it is the phone for me I just wanted to know what the big beef with WM 6.5 is.

I am currently using a BlackBerry Bold and it is a nice device but feel so limited beyond texting and emailing. But the HD2 that is a whole new ballgame.

Thanks for the feedback - I am looking forward to getting the phone in February.

[HD2 General] scarymonkey:
There is nothing intrinsically wrong with 6.5 except its lack of finger friendlyness, which depending on what you use the phone for could be a positive or a negative. Its biggest drawback is the poor quality of the original phones gave it a bad press which certain tech websites have never let go.

Personally I have had WM phones since the Wizard and have used a number of different ones since. I also have a Hero and found Android very good but ultimately not as usable as WM6.1 or WM6.5. My current phone is a HD2 which beats the the Hero and the iPhone at virtually every everyday task it has been given. (even the Hero stood up very well against the iPhone).

As for apps, yet again the media seem to think the only way to get an app on your phone is through an app store - carefully ignoring the fact that WM has had apps since day 1, just not all available from one place.
[HD2 General] Karlos G:
FPMSL!!!!!! :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] freyberry:
Well, there might really be 6000 quality apps among those 110000. :D

That's 5.5%. If 20% of all WM applications are quality ones, then there's already more quality applications for WM than for the iPhone. Especially if you add PSX games that all work great on WM now :D

Don't take this too serious, I'm just having a bit of fun. There's lots of good applications for the iPhone, but I never missed anything when I switched (back) to WM.
[HD2 General] UberScooter:
While I have all of you to talk to - what is the best registry editor to get for my HD2? I also want to look at a task manager as well...

Any feedback much appreciated.

Scott :D
[HD2 General] ruscik:
One thing I can not get about Iphone apps is fact they take normal app and call it something new and wonderful.

There is this app for iphone that splits the restaurant bill on to as many people as you want.

I thin on all other phones it is called a calculator and it can do so much more as well as is free.

Another example of stupid paid app is Ducati history app. Why pay I think £2.99 for it (BTW it still only works if you are online) when you can get the same at Ducati.com. Only reason I can think off is because Ducati site is flash based?!

Get resco explorer with regedit plugin. However I think full one you have to pay. For a free app there is PHM Registry editor:

http://freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml

to edit registry of your winmo device via your laptop you will need active sync and CeRegeditor by mdSoft. It allows you to export keys you want and convert them in to cab installs so if you need to hard reset it is just click and go for all your registry tweaks.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] olinno:
I`ve installed WM 6.5 in my Qtek 9090, and when i put in dock to syncronize with my pc, said that the USB port is no longer availabile, chose another way to syncronize, or install a synchronazation software from the getting started disc... but i dont have this disk. what can i do to sync my phone with pc?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
first of all, perform a hard reset by pressing power+reset+camera+record, in the menu that appears, set

Enable Kitl NO

Format Storage YES

Clear Registry Hive YES

using the camera and record buttons, confirm with the mail button.

make sure you delete older sync partnerships on your pc, you need to set up a new one.

if bot those actions did not work, try another usb port or finally flashing the rom again or maybe another rom, there are certain builds out there, that have sync issues, which one did you pick exactly?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Peter Moran:
Same problem

I have just updated a SPV M2000 to WM6.5 and cannot sync

I have tried a virgin PC running XP and this doesn't communicate. The USB connection is recognised by the PC but neither active sync works nor does the file manager recognise the PDA.

The PDA says that the USB port is a problem.

Can I still reupgrade? Maybe should I try an earlier version?

Is there a "known good" version of WM6.5 for SPV M2000?

Thanks for your help
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
hi and welcome to the forum.

what rom are you using (build number, chef)?

are you sure you followed the right upgrade procedure to the point? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4706441&postcount=2

especially the hard reset at the end is important and might help your case here.

yes, you will be able to upgrade/downgrade to change the rom, as long as activesync 4.5 is installed on a windows xp pc. that brings the needed driver for the device to connect, also if you can't sync.

there are many good wm6.5 roms here, just go to the blueangel rom development section and look at the different releases.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Peter Moran:
Same Problem sorted

Problem sorted.

Before you replied I tried one of the ROMs you recommended and Eureka.

This forum is really useful - thanks

I wonder if you can point me in the right direction. My real reason for upgrading the Blue Angel was to see if it would run Tom Tom Navigator 7 which needs WM6. It won't. I simply get the answer Program not for this device even though I am now running quite successfully WM6.5.
[General Questions and Answers] KueB:
My TP2 shows Russian files (.txt, songs in Windows Media Player, etc.) all garbled up. When I change the Regional Settings to Russian, it shows fine. However, the device tries to translate things in Russian. I'm OK with many things, but having Google Maps display street names in Russian, doesn't really help. Thus, how do I get around solving my problem. I'd like to be able to read Russian .txt files without changing Regional Settings to Russian.

Thanks.

Hello everybody!

Since friday my growing panel has problems with showing the right year... It is because of new years I guess. The year should be 2010 but instead it keeps on changing the year. Even if I wait a few hours it still keeps on scrolling from 2010 to 2019... or my phone just crashes when I try to change the date. Does anyone know how to fix this??

I have a very small 3.5 jack. I think I can fine space to install it in my phone and then thinking of sending the wire into the usb port at the bottom.

I have this info:

http://pinouts.ru/Home/Tele35s_pinout.shtml

http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/htc_hermes_usb_connector_pin_config

My question is, if I just connect the wire up. How does the software know there is a headset attached to the phone? or will it always think there is?
[General Topics] Rudegar:
it measure the resistance between ground and left and right

a normal headset connected would maybe give 8ohm where no headset connected would be infinity ohms

does it matter which gnd wire i use? I notice there are 2 different ones
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] beermonster65:
I have no problem sending or receiving MMS, but the phone doesn't send a confirmation (not sure on correct terminology) to the sender, and I also get a text saying you have received a picture message, and a URL to click and log in to view the picture.

Now this isnt really a problem but sometimes it sends the picture multiple times as well as the link.

Is there a setting maybe in the registry to sort this out or is it a network problem

I'm on TMobile uk and have a MDA Compact 4 with NRG rom.

TIA
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] band27:
Just go to the place where you are about to write a text message. Go to the bottom button and there should be a option button and from here you select the settings button and there you should be able to check and/or uncheck which things like confirmation...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] beermonster65:
Its when i'm receiving them, i get the picture as an mms, and as a text link, usually you get one or the other or so I thought.

once you install you have to go to your "all messages" screen or "inbox" then >menu>settings>options>menu>mms server>set tmobile as default..also click on tmobile to make sure "connect via" is set to tmobile mms then set your send limit to you desired amout of kb's!!!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pyrorob:
ok, the previous cab i made replaces the messaging client entirely, which is un-needed now that nrg includes that same version in his roms. this cab just has the reg entries alone so it should work with any version of the messaging client. so uninstall the previous cab and use this one.

This has always worked for me as a fail-safe. Depending on your ROM and manila version sometimes you have to look in slightly different places to get to the same thing but here is what I have:

1. Start, Settings, Connections, and then tap the Connections Icon

2. Under "My Work Network" tap Add a New Modem Connection

3. Name it Picture Messaging and under Select a modem select (GPRS,3G)

4. Under Access Point Name type: wap.voicestream.com

5. Username, Password, and Domain is left blank and then click Finish

6. Now, go into Proxy Settings under "my work network: and check "This network connects to the Internet" and check "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"

7. Under the Proxy Server box type: 216.155.165.050

8. Tap the advanced button and tap on the HTTP line. Make sure the HTTP settings shows 216.155.165.050:80. If not, change it.

9. Click the OK button a few times to get out of the settings completely.

10.Now go to messages (in manila) and click all messages, then menu, and mms options. go to servers tab. select new. Call it T-Mobile.

11. MMS gateway address is 216.155.165.050 and port number is 80

14. MMS URL is http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms

15. Finally under Network Profile select: My Work Network and then click ok.

• SPB Backup

There are others...

Make sure that when full backups are done, that it's done on the original ROM.

There is another that does a great job too.. and is better for those who flash from Rom to Rom...can't remember though.
