[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] InRBigness:
The biggest memory saver is disabling Opera from running in the background on start up. This uses 8-10 megs or so it appears on my phone. There are lots or registry edits and cabs out there that will do this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
I was under the impression that was the net effect of the NoPushInternet cab I've been using (attached in my previous post)...I haven't used any other cabs for that purpose, and it doesn't load for me anymore.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] enahs_:
Thanks guys! You are brilliant! That free'd up a bunch of memory (Share Memory trick). I am going to leave Opera running in BG for now because I use it a lot, but will remove it if need be later. I am staying around 50% usage right now, which should be plenty of free program memory.

And thanks sirphunkee, I was wanting to remove some of that crap (like stupid game demos) but could not. I tried to deleting the large exes but that was not allowed either.

My system is running great now thanks to help from these forums!

If there was only a way to get weather (no fancy animation) on home screen of Touchflo 2.1 !

[G1 General] marcelcrazy:
I can't copy any file, until the smallest note 1kb of pc to g1.

I try to copy a file, like a music, ok, its there, but after when I remove safely the usb, and unmount on the g1, I look for the file and its not there. I tested with every type off archives, and with a 200mb file, the sd don't keep the file. Help plx , maybe its a config wrong.

Ahh, and I can't download files on g1 by browser, it says that I haven't space, but I have 3GB on sd and 20mb on internal.

Before I haven't this 2 problems. Someone know what are the problem?

Sorry by the bad english, I'm portuguese =P
[G1 General] marcelcrazy:
the problem is the sdcard 8GB

Well, I couldn't take pics, download files from internet, everthing that be armazened on sdcard. I change for a sdcard of 1GB from my cam, and it works, at all. Well, I want to know how I fix the sdcard 8GB, maybe formating it. I have a debian instaled, i ll lose it =X, I don't know what I've done to brick the sdcard 8GB like that, a minute it works, another it don't. Ok, just to know if formating the problem will gone.

[Imagio General] sjs50613:
Which Bluetooth stack is used in the Imagio? Widcomm? Microsoft? I see registry folders for both.

I want to try adjusting some registry settings to see if I can get my phone to pair with my Nissan Frontier (the Frontier does not recognize the correctly-entered PIN as valid). Since the Frontier pairs with other older phones, I am suspecting a backward compatibility problem that perhaps can be addressed with a registry setting change.

Any tips on where to find the best description of the appropriate Bluetooth registry entries?

Thanks,

Steve

Any luck? ..
[Hero CDMA General] gomorrah:
That's what PM's are for. You don't need to start a whole thread about this.
[Hero CDMA General] myke66:
If i knew his user name i would have done that, thanks! Besides, its help with his rooted cdma hero.
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Please I've seen threads started for less. If we had a mod that'd be one thing. But we don't.

Edit: I nominate you for moderator maybe you could turn this sub-forum around
[Hero CDMA General] gomorrah:
I would gladly accept. I spend an inordinate amount of time in here anyway.:D
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Well let's get the ball rolling on this
[Hero CDMA General] gomorrah:
I would love to. But I can guarantee that if this gets taken even halfway seriously, there'll be about 100 other guys jump out of the woodwork to nominate themselves instead. And then something that could have been productive will end up as an epic cluster ****.
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Back on track, what best buy where? Just wondering
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
I nominate epic clusterfuck. :D
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Just a second, let me create a user name "epicclusterfuck":D
[Hero CDMA General] epicclusterfuck:
sup guys!?

Don't be stealin my material dudejog.;)
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Wtf that's me
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
In all seriousness, this forum needs moderation badly. TBH, that's a big part of the reason I (used to) avoid it. Any informative thread is quickly buried with a ton of "Help me I can't root" replies. Someone with 'authority' needs to be able to tell these people to read the how-to's, and if it's beyond their comprehension they have no business modifying their device. It's a developers nightmare trying to support his/her work while being flooded with questions answered a million times elsewhere.
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
I've said this before, I'm not even a dev, I nominate epicclusterfuck for moderation of this forum, we need someone to lock posts, move posts, and ban members after so many warnings. I started on this forum in the Harold/wing section and if you messed around in there you got a quick warning. After that there would be massive flaming.

I never posted over there in fear of being flamed, there is no respect in the hero cdma forums.
[Hero CDMA General] gomorrah:
I don't think it would possible for me to agree with you more.
[Hero CDMA General] epicclusterfuck:
Sign me up.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
And that's what I attempt do but everyone jumps on me because I'm "not being friendly to the n00bs" when I tell them their question has been asked & they need to search.
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
LOL. How could anyone NOT cast a vote for someone named epicclusterfuck for a position in administration. It's like truth in advertising :)
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
Well, I hate to say this but you only have two posts, I think they like moderators to have 10 posts it more
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
I've seen. You, Flipz and crew working on 2.1, quietcblongs, and the kernel port devs need to approach the "powers that be" as a group. You guys could get so much more work done without all the crap floating around.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
See I don't really see myself as a dev. I'm more of a gatherer of info & a tinkerer.

And I have brought it to attention of one if the mods & they said they are in the process of getting someone as a mod for at least over the general Hero sub-forums.

Really I won't mind moderating the Hero forums, especially since I have moderate other forums in the past & during the day I have time at work to keep an eye on things.
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
I've been lurking the hero forums since Oct 22nd when I got my hero, and I've only seen moderation three times. Once someone stickied a bunch of roms, then someone's language got censored, and now we have these wiki's. That's it. No threads moved, no threads moved, no threads closed. We need an ACTIVE mod and gu1dry is as good as any.

We need someone with a cdma hero who lurks here in this sub-forum a lot to lock/ban some of this bs.
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
Gatherer of info and tinkerer = developer. Don't sell yourself short. It simply means you haven't released anything yet.

Unfortunately if they have already been asked for more moderation and haven't actually responded to it, there's not much more that can be done.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Pretty sure I was the one who got Mod'd for the word "freaking" followed by a "moron" - :confused: It was quite laughable.
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
May as well throw my name in the bucket. Between waiting for receivers to activate, and usually getting off early I can browse on my phone most of the day, and don't have anythign to do in the evenings, though once I fiinish downloading all the kernel stuff in my VBox I plan on getting into kernel dev'ing. Once FLipz's kitchen is released I'd also like to get into cooking.
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
That's the exact post I was referring to actually
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
I'll throw my name in the bucket! I probably won't get it though, but I do have moderation material I already moderate 2 forums that i don't and I didn't help create I was nominated for being helpful :O. Although I don't know as much about phones as I do about other stuff I can mod pretty well (or atleast my admin thinks I can!)
[Hero CDMA General] gomorrah:
What'd I tell you dudejog?
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
It's true.

Epicclusterfuck is our only hope
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:

[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Well the convo I had that mod was well over a week ago, so I'm not holding my breath.

That was one of the weakest moderation I've seen in a long time. lol

I wasn't nominating myself.

Epicclusterfuck for President!, I mean Mod... >.> lol :p
[Hero CDMA General] phonetec:
so ummmm what about the guy from best buy?
[Hero CDMA General] gbhil:
I'm way out of this. I'm just some newguy who shat out the opinion of an outsider.

But if given the chance to vote for anyone or anything named clusterfuck, I'm for it on principle lol.
[Hero CDMA General] myke66:
So for the record, the reason for this post before it got horribley derailed, was i work at best buy in the mobile section, a kid came in with a hero that was messing up, and my co workers had no idea what was wrong (they told him to install a task killer to fix his random reboots), i was leaving and walked him out and he told me it was rooted and all that, and that he uses this forum. i was willing to help him out a bit as he was new to it, but i forgot his username here.
[Hero CDMA General] adub007:
So i work at Geeksquad but wat exactly is the question this is just 1 big spam thread wasting webspace for no reason what so ever, So how about u ask your question that u need help with then we can gladly help you
[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
Hold on, now...there was one thread moved. The rooting Eris thread was moved from the CDMA Hero sub-forum to their own forum. Unfortunately, that was the only one I can recall.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
How about you read the post right above you & so you can see what the OP was getting at.

RTT or GTFO. I'm starting to getting really tired of people not reading the thread before replying.
[Hero CDMA General] myke66:
I was already helping someone who came in, i was trying to follow up with him as i cant do it at best buy, working for them, you know the policy for people doing any kind of customization. if my co workers even heard he rooted his phone they would have told him to get out.
[Hero CDMA General] Semantics:
Honestly, with posts like this one, and the other abrasive responses you make to people, you would probably be better off if you weren't a mod.

You seem to be drunk on perceived power. Stuff like GTFO has no place, and you'd destroy a ton of threads because you are too easily irritated by things that are not irritating at all. If you don't like a post, just skip over it. Keep your bossy, smartass comments that noone but you cares about, to yourself.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Me destroy threads, that's rich. It's ignorant people that don't use the tools at hand & lazy people that don't read the thread before replying, that destroy threads & the forum in general.

I'd don't have anymore power than any non-promoted member. If you don't like what I have say, which is most times true, then don't read my responds & don't interact with me. There are plenty of threads on XDA & hell there are many other gadget modifying forums out there, even in the infant realms of Android.

And apparently you do care about what I say or you won't have gotten your panties all in a bunch.

I am currently trying to develop some software that allows to use a wiimote or a ps3 controller (ex. for fpsece).

all in vb.net

I currently discovered that I am unable to connect. I have already found a similar project that stopped because of the same problem!

I have read that the problem is the missing HID/S2CAP support of 32feet.net

The other software uses BlueTools so there may be the same problem!.

Does anyone know something that allows me to connect to my wiimote?! Maybe some SDK with HID/S2CAP support?!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
I was looking at doing this at one point. The HD2 with its Widcomm bluetooth stack supports BT HID, and the later WM6.5.X builds have Bth_HID in the SYS.

Pairing doesn't get you very far though. I found some C++ code for using the Wiimotes, but I haven't transfered it yet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
@l3v5y Why you have always the same ideas I do :D

The Bluetooth Stack of the HD2 seems to be a little bit buggy:

If I try to use a Bluetooth chat, it just works from my HD2 to my Kaiser, not the other way round. It is as my HD2 blocks all incoming Bluetooth connections :(

Any idea?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vua777:
please setup a team , winmo need you

cheer
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
Ok, I have attached the Bluetooth Chat here.

It would be nice if other HD2 users could test it(You will need the HD2 and another WinMob Phone with a Widcomm Stack). Please always post the Roms of the devices, especailly the HD2's.

If it is only occurs on some ROMS, it would be fine, so I will do a Rom upgrade for further testing :)

My results where:

HD2 - T-Mobile ROM 1.43.11.2 (70315) Ger

Kaiser - Custom Rom WinMob 6.5

Message HD2 to Kaiser: Works fine, but takes a second.

Message Kaiser to HD2: Connection error, no message!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
I found following in the thread of WiiMöb: http://wiimob.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=10953

"But it seems likely that any purely bluetooth work was a red herring, and we just need to tackle BTHHID.DLL and devise a P/Invoke library that will get us a Filehandle to the device through the HID stack."
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ScruffR:
Hi everybody,

I'm also looking for a solution for that.

As I had similar problems with my Notebook (Widcomm-BT-Stack), I could solve it with a different BT stack. But I don't want to part with the Widcomm on my HD2.

I think the main problem is that the OK softbutton is disabled as long as there is no passcode in the inputbox. It only gets enabled if you enter somthing, which would never match up with the empty passcode of the WiiMote (somthing <> nothing ;-).

If the OK softbutton was enabled even with empty passcode box, the codeless pairing might actually work.

Is there anybody capable of unlocking this OK button?

Please

ScruffR
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
The problem is that the WM Devices misses a special HID driver ;). You may connect it with out a passcode with some tricks but this won't help because you cannot connect to the device
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kubaf:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
Until someone finds a way to get a stream, the development is stopped :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hadleymj:
There is a way to connect to the Wii Remote with a WM 6 device.

The driver you want to look for should come with WM 5 and 6 devices. It has the prefix "BHI" it is not meant for production use, and it somewhat bare-bones, however you can successfully connect to the Wii Remote with it.

The registry path for this driver is:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Hid\Hid_Class

and

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Hid\Instance

If you activate these drivers using the Win32 ActivateDeviceEx command (upon hard reset you don't have to do this), you should be able to open up a file stream to the driver.

HANDLE read_test = CreateFile(L"BHI0:", 0, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);

unsigned __int64 wii_addr = 0x002659F4EEEDL; // BT_ADDR, 64 bits (8 bytes)

Then, I call the DeviceIoControl function to connect to the Wii Remote:

bool device_io_success = DeviceIoControl(read_test, 1, &wii_addr, sizeof(wii_addr), NULL, 0, NULL,NULL);
e = GetLastError();

Just replace the wii_addr with your Wii Remote's Bluetooth address.

The source code for this driver can be found by googling:

"bthhid.cxx source code" it should be the first link.

The set of APIs it provides is minimal, and I was not able to get any other function to work besides HIDConnect.

I'm still working on getting some sort of data from it.

Let me know if this works for you,

Mike
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
Could you send me a link to the source? I am finding any :(

I will take a look later, maybe we get it running :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hadleymj:
Unfortunately, I can't post the link due to spam restrictions (I just joined the forums recently). However, I have attached the folder that includes all the source files with this post.

This folder comes with Windows CE Platform Builder. It is located here (if you have Platform Builder installed):

C:\WINCE500\PRIVATE\WINCEOS\COMM\BLUETOOTH\PROFILES\HID

If you navigate to the BASE folder, you will find bthid.cpp. This is the main source that contains the stream driver implementation.

The main section of this file to examine is around line 2500 on down. These are the functions that are exposed when you create a file handle to the driver.

Let me know how it works out,

Mike
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoleX1:
My X10 has the wiimote working as theres an app available for it on the Android market.. works really well, would be great to get the same functionality on my HD2
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoleX1:
I dont know if this is of any use (as it didnt help me pair the wiimote to my HD2 which says "make sure the device is descoverable after I select it and enter the passkey corresponding to the buttons)

But here are the buttons and their corresponding numbers:

Left is 4

Up is 2

Right is 5

Down is 3

A is 0

B is 1

1 is 8

2 is 9

- is 7

Home is 10

Can you also post the code to correctly use ActivateDeviceEx to active these drivers?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hadleymj:
I use ActivateDeviceEx in the following way:

ActivateDeviceEx(L"Software\\Microsoft\\Bluetooth\\Hid\\Instance", NULL, 0, L"Software\\Microsoft\\Bluetooth\\Hid\\Hid_Class");

int e = GetLastError();

Upon hard reset I believe it should already be activated, you can check it in the registry.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobaltikus:
Excellent! Thanks! I had the Hid_Class string in the Instance string position and NULL on the Hid_Class string position.

If I can't get this to work I may reluctantly switch to Android. But I love my Touch Pro2. And there are NO Android phones with both TV out and a hardware keyboard :( I am determined I know it's possible It will happen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scilor:
Would be nice to say if you got it working and publish its source :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobaltikus:
h = ActivateDeviceEx(L"Software\\Microsoft\\Bluetooth\\Hid\\Instance", NULL, 0, L"Software\\Microsoft\\Bluetooth\\Hid\\Hid_Class");

if (h == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
MessageBox(NULL, L"ActivateDeviceEx Failed", L"ActivateDeviceEx Failed", MB_OK);
e = GetLastError();
}

hRead = CreateFile(L"BHI0:", 0, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);

if (hRead == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
e = GetLastError();

memset(s, 0, sizeof(TCHAR) * 8);
wsprintf(s, L"CreateFile Failed %u", e);
MessageBox(NULL, s, s, MB_OK);
}

ActivateDeviceEx is succeeding but although CreateFile succeeds in the emulator it returns 87 (invalid parameter I think) on my Touch Pro2.

Any ideas?

Still working on it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mase_Mase:
Encouragement!

Just wanted to voice my encouragement for those working on this project! Imagine being able to control emulators, or integrate G-sensor games with the wiimote!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hadleymj:
I would make sure that the driver is actually being activated. I'm pretty sure thats what error 87 refers to, BHI doesn't exist as an active driver in the registry.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobaltikus:
I'm pretty sure (not completely sure) that the driver is not being activated.

Both registry keys exist with all the seemingly necessary values.

And bthhid.dll exists in the Windows directory.

I ran dot fred's task manager after the ActivateDeviceEx to see all devices and BHI0 was not one of them.

Could this have something to do with the fact the TP2 has a Widcomm BT stack as opposed to a Microsoft BT stack?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hadleymj:
That might be the issue. The device I was using had the Microsoft BT stack. However, it seems like if the registry keys are there and the dll is there it should still activate the driver.

You don't see it in HKLM\Drivers\Active?

I will poke around some more.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobaltikus:
I don't see it in HKLM\Drivers\Active.

Maybe I need to DeactivateDevice on the widcomm stuff first...

will try out more stuff another day. gotta get up for work n 5 hrs. :(
