I had this problem a while ago and to be honest there hasnt really been a fix for it. However, with the recent release of the 1.66 rom, Windows live messenger has been flawless. Prior to flashing to the new rom (was on 1.61) my messenger would randomly come up with that message forcing me to soft reset my phone in order for messenger to work.

Although I've only been using 1.66 for 2 days, I have yet to come across this message. In fact i think its the first time i havent had to restart my phone a few times everyday :D SMS's stuck in the outbox hasnt happened yet for me on 1.66 so lets hope thats fixed as well ^^

Hi everyone,

I have gmail and Microsoft Direct Push running on my phone without a problem for 2 weeks. My question is does the "Microsoft Direct Push" inside the Comm Manager always stay on?

I remember looking at my phone and I thought I would see "Microsoft Direct Push" turn on and off throughout the day. Yesterday I noticed I was not getting my email from gmail. So I went in to the Comm Manager and didn't see the the "Microsoft Direct Push" icon turning on and off. So I turned it on and my emails started rolling in. But the "Microsoft Direct Push" never turns off now.

Maybe I am imaging it turning on and off?
[General Questions and Answers] jul644:
.

no your not crazy :) its probably just checking for e-mails every 5 min or 10 or 15 that way ur 3g connection isnt in use 24/7 and destroying your battery life
[General Questions and Answers] cloves:
thanks for the reply jul,

It seems that push should be on all the time if you think about it. Otherwise it can't listen for new email. I do pretty good on battery though. I am also running RyanMoguls rom which has got the battery hacks I think to save juice.
[G1 General] nolimit78:
Has anyone noticed how stupid difficult it is to link FB accounts to your google contacts? Its like they took a good way of doing it (Hero 1.5) and just was like "nope, we need something new"

For example, I loved how Hero 1.5 imported the FB picture to the google contact so when the person called you had a quality picture come up. But with 2.1 its like you can either only have the google contact OR the FB as the primary. But the picture never gets imported!

Or am I missing something??
[G1 General] OG:
Me too! Something seems fishyy!
[G1 General] hitman4485:
glad i wasnt the only one that noticed that...it really doesnt make any sense
[G1 General] nolimit78:
After some poking around I'm thinking that the Facebook Feature isn't 100%. If you're using KiNgxKxKlair Eclair Hero Version 1.0 "Official Release" and go through the normal SetUp.. you'll notice once you skip over the google sign in that singing into facebook is grayed out. Maybe it's just broken at this point.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] jagan2:
Yes its true Microsoft have released the sdk for wm 6.5.1 or 6.5.3 anyways they are considering it wm 6.5 only but since we have seen leaked builds etc we can call it wm 6.5.1 sdk, here is the link http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...38-0fe6-4396-a4e5-5a516deb1bc5&displayLang=en its there written wm 6.5 but see the date published its 22/1/2010 and i can confirm that it is wm 6.5.1 see this link http://community.softteq.com/blogs/nick/archive/2010/01/22/windows-mobile-6-5-sdk-overview.aspx and that site reports that the build number is 23090.:D

It seems that Microsoft has pulled out the sdk, the page is no more there.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Ooije:
Nice, but the Visual Studio integration doesn't seem to work side by side with 6.0 SDK :(. Seems like I can either have 5.0 and 6.0 or 5.0 and 6.5, but not all three of them.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] tilleke:
yes, I had the same problem as well. Hope someone has a solution.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] |ErosizeD|:
it's posible to upgrade the th01 to winmo 6.5.3??

with a custom rom?? or official update from microsoft or toshiba....

( i dude... )
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
Yep, I completely screwed up the ArkSwitch solution after installing the SDK. I swear, sometimes I think MS just forgets about the existence of QA.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jagan2:
I have read somewhere its clearly written that you have to uninstall any previous sdk..... to use this one.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
No, it most certainly is not. That would be an awful requirement. People need to be able to develop for multiple versions of Windows Mobile concurrently.

The issue is most likely that this release was rushed and they forgot to change the identification strings and/or GUIDs between the 6.0 SDK and this one.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] alvinkh:
hmm.. unable to install it.. it keep saying that my visual studio is not installed when i already had it on my com :(

[Windows Mobile Software Development] TrashKalmar:
Setup tells that I have no Visual Studio 2005 SP1 or later and .Net Compact Framework 2.0 SP1. But I have installed VS2008SP1. Any solutions?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
That might be your issue.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TrashKalmar:
I dont think so. For now I can write C++ programs for smart devices (and I often do this). The CF2 will downloaded soon and I'll try again.

Updated:

None. One prerequisite (CF) has been removed, but it still wants VS2005.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bilbobrian:
links are dead, can anyone mirror? :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
Huh, I guess MS decided to pull the SDK after realizing that either (1) it wasn't supposed to be released yet, or (2) it screws with Visual Studio.

Regardless, we should probably wait until they put up a proper one.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] KilZone:
Those are the 'old' WinMo 6.5 SDK links, not the 6.5.3 links. The links have indeed been pulled from the website, at this time I think someone just set the release date wrong. The version of WinMo 6.5.3 in the download was 23090, which by itself was full of bugs. Also the SDK only seemed to work 'ok' in VS2010, but by 'ok' it means it wasn't perfect.

For now the links provided by La3bna are enough to develop normal applications, for WinMo 6.5.3. The only thing the SDK was usefull for was developing Widgets, because the features of widgets had changed a little, but for most part it's just more trouble than it's worth!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Fred23:
Surely someone must be able to provide a copy for those who missed it? Being able to use VS2010 (even if it isn't perfect) sounds like a good enough reason to try it out.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
I don't think it was even supposed to be compatible with VS2010...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] KilZone:
No it wasn't, it says so during installation, weirdly enough once booted VS2010 it automatically recognizes the files and loads them...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TrashKalmar:
But what to do with unrecognized VS2008? I'm still unable to install these SDKs on my machine. By the way, installed 6.1 SDK is not hooked by VS2008 - no emulators from 6.1 were connected to IDE. Any suggestions?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Cipher:
could anyone of those lucky ones upload the 6.5.3 SDK to rapidshare or somewhere else, because it's no longer available from microsoft and who knows when it will be...

[Windows Mobile Software Development] ramdroid77:
the SDK was pulled down by Microsoft because it was an untested beta. so why do you want to make it work on your machine??? though anyway, from the reactions I read there was nothing new in it, right?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arktronic:
Not quite. It has a widget web-based "emulator" and WM6.5.3 emulator images.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ramdroid77:
ok I see. I never did any of the widget stuff. I rather thought maybe some more SDK related stuff (it's a SDK actually?) is still missing... like support for the newly skinned controls etc.

Uninstall 2008 first. Then install the SDK. Then reinstall 2008.

We have been running WMSkins Gallery, with an aim to bring all the skins & themes for Windows mobiles to one central location. Now we are creating a platform based on WMSkins Gallery which will be a marketplace for all the skins & themes for Windows Mobiles & Android.

Designers over here go a great job & provide our devices a new look but they are not given full credit. We would like that designers get there share of advantage for their hard work. So, we will provide all the designers a medium where they can share their work either for free or paid.

We would like to know your thoughts about it?

We are also looking for name recommendations for the new gallery, So Please suggest.

UPDATE: Here's a preview, its just a design mockup. We are working on functionality.

Regards,

WMSkins Team.
[Windows Mobile Themes] incubus26jc:
Yes, That would be a great idea!
[Windows Mobile Themes] PollPixx:
it is good to have something, however, lately I am making themes and wallpapers for S2U2 which I post here. I see them back on your site, no problem at all, but I think it is not more than polite to add the original author's name on it. I see now several themes, clocks and wallpapers which I photoshopped together ;-) and at some of them the poster (a guy from India) did not mentioned the author. And when you are really going to SELL my themes I want my share, all original PSD files are in my computer, I really do not want you to sell something and make profit using my work without notifying.

You took the themes and skins from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=354111&page=714

I made this because I think it is fun and to do something back for this great community, I did not expect to see them on other sites without referring to the author (the one with the green lamborghini on wmskins for example)

Cheers,

Arnold
[Windows Mobile Themes] mushipkw:
Hi Arnold,

We at our site respect the original authors & mention their name on the upload which you'll find under each image when you open it up, scroll down to the page for more information & you'll find authors name being mentioned there. What we mention below thumbnails are the uploaders name.

And on our new project we let original authors upload their work, set the price & get paid. We'll not be selling others work.

Hope you like the project,

WMSkins Team.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Irishpride:
I would be great to have more of the themes in a centralized place, however charging for themes could be very difficult considering how many talented developers are just giving them away. Those who do make the themes deserve to get their do credit. I am in support of a "theme gallery", but not paying for something we are already getting for free or by donating.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mushipkw:
Hi Irishpride,

Our current Gallery is short of many features. We are developing a whole new interface to it & added funtionality. We'll let designers choose whether they want to provide their work for free or for a charge. Therefore, there'll be both free & paid themes in the gallery. If a designer is paid for his work, he'll be more interested in providing more skins & themes, therefore user will get more & more awesome look on the device. Its good for both designers & users.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PollPixx:
Well, good to hear that you respect that, I assume you and another one are having this site. So, take a look at this: http://www.wmskins.com/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=19&pos=1

My name is not there. Maybe it is an idea to let the people who post our work to force them to admit something in the field where to put the original authors name. That way, you don't have to check it, and you don't get any mail regarding to his from disappointed authors. (just an idea)

Further on I think to get a lot on one place is good, and as long as the free downloads are better than the ones you have to pay for, your visitors are happy too ;-)

Cheers,

Arnold
[Windows Mobile Themes] mushipkw:
We are sorry that your name is not mentioned there, We may not have got it otherwise we would have added it there. Anyways we are working on the new interface which will improve it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
To be honest, I don't like the site as it is now.

You don't even provide a link to the original thread, which is really the least that is expected. But even then I don't think it's good to mirror the files without asking for permission, especially as you force users to register before they can download anything :eek:.

But it's not about anything you're planning in the future - it's about now. I think it's reasonable that I expect you to link to the sources and take the files down or make them available for all users.

[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
My work is already uploaded to your site, but if you are going to use it for the Marketplace we will have to discuss it.

I don't think many people will pay for a skin.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mushipkw:
Dear ElCondor,

You can upload you work yourself on the marketplace & set the price. When people buy the work you'll get the amount.

Currently there is no site like this for Windows Mobile & Android. Everyone knows that WM doen't come with a good looking interface, so we think people may be willing to shell a little extra to get a new look for the device. Moreover if the designers get benefit for their work they will providing more great looking themes.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ElCondor:
Sure I would be more productive if I would get paid.

I am 16 years old so I have not much money; getting paid for it would be great.

Just tell me when you've finished it!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Well, as long as you don't upload the work of others and then make people pay for it, I'm fine. Also, I don't see you're actively "improving the shortcomings in the current version"... :rolleyes:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sennister:
I think this is the best place for this question.

I have a G1 now and am considering moving over to the Nexus one. My wife and I are on the family plan and we want to keep that going. Currently she only had a basic phone with basic cell service. I have the basic cell service with the Data Plan added to my line. Her contract is up and she can get a new phone, which is good because her Motorola is getting flakey. Anyhow she wants to start doing text messaging with family. So she wants a new phone that has a full keyboard for texting. She doesn't need/want the data plan as it is $30/mo that she won't use. The problem is that all the phones with full keyboards require a data plan. She is a stay at home mom so if she needs the internet she get on a computer. So my thoughts were to get the new Nexus One for me @ $533 for the unsubsidized rate. I take my SIM out of my G1 put it in the N1. Move her sim from her Motorola over to my old G1 then turn on texting on the her line.

She wouldn't be paying for data and I could just set the G1 up to use our Wifi anyhow. Not that it would be used for anything but updating and installing new apps. So it should be fine. I could wipe the phone and set it up on her Gmail account before pulling my sim so I could then configure Wifi.

Does anyone see any flaws in my thinking? I have already put her sim in my G1 as a test and it could make a receive calls on her number. The one thing that I did notice is that it said it had 3G coverage but I didn't try it.

Thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sennister:
Well I was out running around today and stopped into the local T-mobile shop to run these questions across them.

Basically they said that it should be fine. They would only be concerned if I were trying to disable the data plan on my account while still under contract. Since I will be maintaining my data plan for use on the Nexus there are no concern. He said that I may have issues when trying to set up the phone for Her. I mentioned I could wipe the phone and set it up on her Gmail account before moving my SIM. He said that once her SIM is in it may have and issue the first time it powers on. He said that worst case we could come down to the store and turn on the data plan for an hour or so and get it updated then they could turn it off.

He also mentioned that I may have problems accessing the App Market as they were told that it needs the data network to function. However he admitted that he can access the App Market just fine on his old G1 at home over his Wifi and no SIM Card. So he again thought that I would be OK. The only real issue that I can see is that I may not be able to get OTA updates. That shouldn't be a big deal because the phone is rooted and I am running a cooked ROM on it. We plan on leaving it that way and I will be doing updates in that manner.

So it looks like my questions are answered. I am posting the resolution as others may have the same question.
