WM6 and OL Questions
I am not sure if these are PPC or Outlook questions. On my VZW XV6800
(WinMobile 6 and Office Mobile) I have two problems with my Outlook Sent
Files folder:
1. E-mails I send from the device do not show up in the Sent
Files --until the following day. I often find it necessary when away from
my office/desktop to either resend mail or to forward to a 3d person a copy
of the e-mail I sent to somebody else. Actually, this may also be a problem
of Intellisync, the software (now owned by Nokia) that is used for wireless
sync. I could copy myself on all my outgoing e-mail and clutter up my inbox
but that's not a very good solution.
2. E-mail that finally shows up in the Sent Files folder cannot be
sorted by addressee. The default is sorting by sender. I understand that
Microsoft set it up that way, but unless you are a real cynic it's hard to
believe that any software designer or programmer at Microsoft thought
telling me that I am the sender of the e-mail I send from my cell phone
would be useful information. Odds are, if I am looking at the Sent files I
am interested in a particular message I sent to a particular person.
Any insights would be appreciated. Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489818
Reset button Resets Windows Mobile 6 to Factory Defaults???
Today my HP Ipaq 112 PDA (windows mobile 6) locked up while running a
program. I had to press in the reset button on the side of the unit.
When it rebooted it wasn't to the normal Windows Mob splash screen but
rather to one where I had to reinitialise the screen sensitivity etc. When
it fired up I found that all settings had to be redone. Stuff like
regional settings, time, date, etc. All installed programs would run but
each time they were run for the first time a message about trusting
certificates popped up and did I want to continue.
But I've found that a couple won't run. AvantGo being one.
I tried to uninstall it but it's not listed in the program list. It is
looking at storage memory on the PDA not the SD card that I have all
applications stored or installed on.
If I delete the AvantGo files directly from the SD card will WM6 pick this
up and delete the icon/shortcuts for it or will I have to somehow manually
remove them? If so how is this done.
Or if I simply reinstalled it back over the existing installation, would
that do?
Finally, in order to stop this happening again is there a proper way to
restart Windows Mobile 6 without having to reset the settings, etc.?

Latest version of PPC2002
I have an iPaq 3670. Currently hadan installation problem with Odyssey Nav
program. Vendor said to check I had latest version of PPC2002.
I checked and it says 3.0.11171 build 11178.
I saw a later release 4.0, but this does not show up when I go to HPs site
and look for updates for the 3670.
Is there a later release that will work with an iPaq 3670?

hp6925 time not correct after hard reset
Hello all,
I had to hard reset my HP6925. I have the correct time and time zone
(GMT -6) set on my PC and device. I've installed the Microsoft Extended DST
update (SP34881). Everytime I sync the time on my HP is one hour off
(early). I've soft-reset my device a couple of times. I've un-installed the
Microsoft extended DST update from my PC. When I try to unstall it from my
device I get the message: the Microsoft Extended DST update was not
completely removed. How do I get the time sync'd correctly?

Change Exchange user or Exchange server entirely on WM device?
Hi - when I've had a user inherit a prior user's WM device, or have changed
a company over to a new server, I've never been able to figure out how to
wipe out the previous Exchange ActiveSync settings on the handheld.
No, I'm not talking about remote wipe....
I've always ended up doing a hard reset on the device, but that seems
draconian and possibly unnecessary. Is there a simple way (on the handheld
itself) to entirely wipe out the Activesync server settings, to get it back
to the vanilla default? I mean, the screen where I can launch the wizard and
add an Exchange server. I feel like I must be missing something obvious. It
wouldn't be the first time.
Any help appreciated....thanks. Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489794
XDA Orbit screen sensitivity
I've been using an XDA Orbit for about a year now. Recently I've noticed
that the screen is less sensitive to stylus taps. Initially I had used a
screen protector but now the screen won't respond with a protector in
place.
Is this a known phenomenon? And is there a solution?

Windows Mobile 6 and certificate installation
I set up an OWA installation on Exchange 2007.
Now I'm trying to use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center on my
WM6 TyTn II.
The https certificate is self-signed and when I try to sync the device
it fails with "The security certificate on the server is not valid.
Contact your Exchange server administrator or ISP to instal a valid
certificate on the server".
It is the correct behavior but on a desktop-pc client I can install
self-signed certificate and no longer get warnings.
How can I do to install cert on my device and to get sync working?

BlackJack II - Auto Forwarding
All,
I recently acquired a BlackJack II (replacement for my Treo 700p).
Anyhow, on my Treo I used an application called "CradleCare" to
forward calls to my home phone whenever the phone was plugged in to
the charger. I _love_ this functionality.
I have been searching for something similar for a non-touchscreen WM6
device. Any ideas?
I've checked out PhoneAlarm from pocketmax.net, however the "SP"
version for non-touchscreen devices curiously does not seem to support
call forwarding!
Does anyone know of an app that will work for this?

iPAQ 210/iPAQ 211 after 1 week of use
Note: the box says "HP iPAQ 210" but under the battery of the device it says
"211".
The positive features I've found with the iPAQ 211 are:
1. The screen resolution is great and once you view an Internet page in
"High Resolution" you will probably be hooked on that feature just like I
am. But sadly enough, the pages would probably look ever better with WM6.1
on the 211.
2. It has a fairly fast processor and I haven't found anything that I use
that can slow it down yet.
3. The "iPAQ File Store" maintains it's memory even after a "Clear memory."
This makes it a lot easier to reinstall your programs when you start over
again which you will probably do a lot when you are testing things out.
4. If you have a cell phone with WM5 it will use that for it's Internet
Connection via DUN and you will not need to use the "Bluetooth Phone
Manager" ever or the "Bluetooth Manager" a second time after it has been
setup once. As neat as that is, that feature is nothing new and it is just
the way BT DUN worked before Microsoft started to phase it out.
Now for the "Quirks" I've found in one week:
Quirk #1
It only has one port that can be used for a BT GPS and you can't use the
setting under "External GPS" to share that port either. If you want to use
a GPS program for verbal directions and one GPS program for a "Satellite
view" at the same time don't plan on it. It would have been neat if HP
could have just added a GPS to the 211 themselves since you will find a lot
of new devices come with GPS built in.
Quirk #2
The Bluetooth manager has a few issues.
1. For some reason, after a "reset" and after a "clear memory" the "iPAQ
Wireless" would not display anything about the Bluetooth. The only option I
would see is the option for "WLAN." I had to recover from that glitch with
a "Clear memory." If this happens again, I might exchange this unit
thinking it is something particular to this unit.
2. I haven't tracked down what is causing this but under "Bluetooth
Settings->Accessibility" it will change from "All devices" to "Paired
devices only" all by itself. Where this is a problem is adding a new
device. But that particular problem is pretty obvious something has changed
when it doesn't ask for a passcode on a new device and the "new device"
fails to work properly.
3. If you scan for new devices, it will not always show everything that
device has to offer.
a. I've found that if a device is "High Quality Audio" and "Hands-free" you
have to run a second scan of BT devices specifically for "Hand-free" to find
the "Hands-free."
b. If a device is a "Network Access Point" and "FTP" you have to run a
second scan of BT devices specifically to "Browse files on a remote device"
to use the FTP service.
4. If you are using a WM6 device for the internet use the built in "Network
Access Point" and stay away from using PDANET. If you use the BT DUN with
PDANET it will work once and never again despite what you try. The only way
I've found to correct that issue is to "Clear memory" and start over. Just
restarting everything or deleting everything and reinstalling items does not
help.
Quirk #3
This is specific to the Slingbox software. The maximum resolution for the
Slingplayer is only 320x240 and ends up looking bad on the iPAQ 211. It
still looks OK but I think the "Slingbox" player looks a lot better on a
device that is only 320x240.
Quirk #4
No way to turn the device completely off despite what the manual on HP.COM
says about holding the power button down:
1. If you hold the power button down it will turn itself back on as soon as
you let up on the power button.
2. If you quickly depress the power button it will simply put it into
"hibernate" mode and come back where it left off when you tap the power
button again..
3. If shut down all the programs, tap the power button and then take the
battery out and put the battery back in it will start all over as if you hit
the reset button on the side.
While I can understand why they want it to be instant on for people that
want it that way. What if someone doesn't use it all the time and wants to
shut it completely off?
----------
I'm sure I will probably find more "Quirks" with this device since I've only
had it a week so far. Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489777

Unit Converter with Currency Exchange and Calipers
Posted since the mobile need for a converter, especially currency, has

A mobile mvp (Dwayne Lamb) has just released a $20 Unit Converter
application which includes a currency converter with downloadable

Contains a lot of options, so, navigation may take some time to learn.
From what I have seen so far (less than an hour's use) it will replace
my current unit/currency converter.
Appreciate neat tools? Checkout its screen measuring tool... once
calibrated to your screen, very exact measurements within your ppc's
screen size are a snap.

WMDC Problems
Using TyTN II, Vista Home Premium
Background: Tried using WMDC 6.1 months ago and had the same sync issues
that many others experienced. Read that going back to 6.0 solved problems.
Installed 6.0 and everything worked fine until 2 days ago when I discovered
that all calendar information disappeared from PDA. Did a restore on the PDA
from prior day's backup to get calendar data back on PDA.
Later that day, I hooked phone up to laptop to do a sync. Received error
message on the phone that sync failed. When I opened WMDC to check things
out, I discovered that the options for Calendar and Contacts no longer
existed in the menu of items to sync. They just totally disappeared.
I uninstalled WMDC and reinstalled 6.0. I opened WMDC and verified that 6.0
was intalled. Then I hooked up PDA to laptop. Device drivers started
installing. When done, I opened WMDC. Not only were the Contact & Calendar
options still missing, but now my WMDC version is 6.1 and obviously it still
won't sync.
I'm totally at a loss. How do I prevent 6.1 from installing and get the
Contacts & Calendar options back on the sync menu?
Thanks. Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489765

Friend cannot sync his new AT&T Tilt (8925)
I have a friend that just purchased an AT&T Tilt (8925) PDA with phone. Itâ??s
running Windows Mobile 6 Professional. I have the same unit so he came to me
for answers that, unfortunately, I couldnâ??t answer. So, here I am, trying to
get some answers for him.
OK, his problem is that he cannot sync his unit to his computer. He copied
all of his contacts over from his old simm card but he cannot sync his
computer. He installed all of the software as directed but, by default, all
of his sync options are grayed out and cannot be selected. He does have one
selection made. File syncing is selected but also grayed out so he canâ??t
change anything about it. Also, the files that are synced say theyâ??re
read-only. Heâ??s checked the file properties and they do not appear to be
read-only but if he tries to modify a Mobile Word or Excel file on his
computer and then save it, heâ??s prompted to change the name because the file
is read-only. Weâ??ve checked all the settings we can on his computer and on
his PDA but can find nothing whatsoever that will allow him to sync his PDA.
Has anyone else experienced a problem similar to this? Iâ??d like to be able
to help my friend but I donâ??t know what else to try. Any assistance anyone
might be able to provide would be most appreciated.
He is running Vista Home Premium on his computer and is using the 90-day
trial version of Outlook 2007 that came with his PDA.
That brings up another question. Iâ??ve never owned a Windows Mobile
PDA/Smartphone that didnâ??t come with a full version of Outlook. I hadnâ??t
noticed this when I received my AT&T Tilt because I already have Office 2007
Enterprise installed. What the heck is he supposed to do after 90 days?! It
seems like a lot to sell someone a high dollar PDA with phone and then expect
them to shell out another $90 to purchase a full version of Outlook.
Thanks.

execution of second instance.
in between System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses method is not

Alarms without sound needed on PDA!
On my desktop I have set a lot of alarms that go off silently, i.e. I
get an alert popup, but there is no sound being played. In Outlook
2002/XP one can achieve this by setting a reminder but unchecking the
"play this sound" checkbox. I am using such alarms a lot to remind
myself of birthdays (the corresponding agenda entries are created
automatically by Outlook), anniversaries and other events that should
not go forgotten.
When I sync such agenda entries to my PDA, however, these alerts will
invariably go off with a sound which is especially nasty when they go
off at midnight (at which time we usually are already asleep)and I thus
fear that my wife will sooner or later smash my PDA against the next
wall, if these alerts keep going off during the night. :-(
Is there a possibility in to define "silent" alerts on a WM6 device? By
"silent" I mean alerts that produce a popup and/or a reminder but
without sound? Ideally this options should be synched with the calendar
item, so that one wouldn't have to think about it again after
synchronization!
Or can one define a general "silence period" during which there will be
no alerts (or rather: alerts will go off either before or after that
period)? Is there maybe a 3rd party tool, that provides such
functionality?

PDF reader?
I've eventually managed to get Adobe Reader for Pocket PC 2.0
re-installed, after it somehow became 'inactive'. But it was an
erratic and time consuming exercise. For most of the time it was shown
as installed, even directly after using the Remove facility. And at
one point it insisted there was insufficient space on my SD card,
despite there being around 1.8 B free. Etc, etc.
Anyway, although it's working, ideally I'd like to get rid of it
forever. Can anyone recommend a reliable alternative PDF reader
please, preferably free?

With WMDC can you only sync from PC to smartphone?
I have a MOTO Q running wm5. PC running vista home premium. Can't seem to
sync my contacts with my pc. I have outlook 2003. In wmdc "change my sync
settings" it says "sync FROM pc". I want to sync FROm my phone to the pc and
vice versa at times. In the xp active sync system it would sync the latest
changes on either the pc or pda. Is this not the way wmdc sync work? Thanks. Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489695

HX2795 Screen Calibration
I've just about had it!
My four month old HP is losing the stylus calibration of the screen.
I did a clear reset (lost all programs and settings) when it first
happened last week, and did a recalibration (ie: touch X's etc).
Now it's off again!
The battery shows 80% power, so all should be OK.
Can anyone out there offer a solution?
If not, I'll no longer sink good money into a Palm or HP and will
carry a small notebook.
Too bad.
This is progress? Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489679

Wheat Bran
Wheat Bran is the portion of the grain immediately under the husk of
the wheat kernel; it covers the entire kernel, often used for animal
feed. It also makes a nutritious addition to baked goods, because it
is a good source of dietary fiber ,dietary minerals and is high in B
vitamins, protein and iron, Wheat Bran is often used to enrich breads
(notably muffins) and breakfast cereals, especially for the benefit of
those wishing to increase their intake of dietary fiber. Bran may also
be used for pickling, as in the tsukemono of Japan, Wheat bran is
extensively used as feed for farm animals. Bran is used as food for
humans (in cereals or mixed with flour in bread) to add roughage
(i.e., cellulosehtt) to the diet. It is also used in dyeing and calico
printing, I hope Pakistan is cheapest source for Wheat Bran for supply
to south east Asian countries,

Touch Keyboard
Hello
I recently got an HTC Touch and I was wondering if there is a keyboard
available that mimics the convential format of a number keypad, whereby
numbers 0-9, represent ABC, DEF, etc.... I used to have an SPV M5000, which
had this functionality, but for some reson I cannot find it in the HTC
Touch?
Kind regards

Detecting CPU usage of a Process ...
Hello Everyone,
I am designing a Task Manager for Windows Mobile Smartphone. I am using
CreateToolhelp32Snapshot() to gether process information. I have an
additional need to including CPU usage and Battery consumption by every
process.
Does any one has an Idea of how to detect CPU Usage and Battery Usage by a
given process on the Device ?
Thanks in Advance,

Cingular internet to text options going, gone?
fwiw, another one of those "can't quite get there from here" scenarios;
Cingular had two internet to text message domains which allowed email to
be sent from any email client to a cingular cell phone;
<cellnumber>@CingularME.com
and
<cellnumber>@mobile.mycingular.com
The acquisition by at&t added a third;
<cellnumber>@txt.att.net
While all of the above work (at the moment) for someone to send text
_to_ your phone, their digital coded "reply" addresses are confusing,
broken or severely delayed, plus the two cingular addresses have changed
behavior since I started using them.
The @CingularME.com address includes a binary "reply to" number which is
accepted without argument by the system if you send a reply... however,
it appears to "black hole" the relies... sent a couple of test replies
to messages from this address earlier this morning and they have yet to
arrive.
The "36245" sender address coming with mail sent via the last two
addresses above is at&t's 5 digit code for "Mail" ("6245" is "Mail" on
the number pad) ...if you simply send a reply to that number, it will fail.
To use "36245" return address, you must manually put the "to" email
address(es) in the reply message's subject line but that's not clear to
the user in the original message or on AT&T's web site.
Now for the final kicker... if the received message is from someone who
used the @txt.att.net address, the sender's email address is not
included in the text message.
so, for the moment, your internet text mail correspondents need to use
the @CingularME.com address as that includes the email address ...unless
you know their email address by heart.
Hope this helps someone else.

4150 ROM Udpate Failed
Hello, I have the exact problem in this discussion:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.pocketpc/browse_thread/thread/6dd012985ff6fcfd/a948f48c65319cb6?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=4150+ROM#a948f48c65319cb6
His computer restarted (like mine) during ROM update.. not my iPAQ
will not boot, stuck with the screen 1.05H 1.02 and HP logo. I've
read lots of people, including the thread I linked, were able to fix
this by flashing the ROM from the SD card, using mtty.
When I launch mtty, I do not get the option to connect to the device
no matter what I do..
Here are some great instructions for the process;
http://mobilitytoday.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7567 but I still can
not get mtty to connect to the busted ipaq.
Am I missing something? Tag: Ipaq 111, WM 6, and office xp Tag: 489653
PPC 2003 (Ipaq 2215) compatible wifi card list?
My wife has decided that she wants a wi-fi card for her ipaq 2215. Are there
any reviews of all the SD and CF cards that talks about compatibility and
overall performance of different PPC wi-fi cards?
My other question is where to get one- I looked on NewEgg, but the only SD
or CF card I could find
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833360015) is out of
stock (and has been for a while). Can anyone suggest other sources of
relatively inexpensive SD or CF wifi cards that would be compatible with a
2003 device? The ones on Ebay seem to be priced about the same as the brand
new newegg card.
Embedded extra memory isn't critical, as we use both CF and SD memory, so
she'll still have plenty of resources on the PPC. Plus, she can always swap
out the wifi card if she needs something from her sd memory card(s).
We do have an encrypted DSL wireless router at home, so we need something
that will support basic encryption (WEP? I don't recall offhand which type
it is we have) as well as open connections when she is in coffee shops, etc.
Thanks for any information,

Suddenly I'm GUEST!
On replacing my iPAQ 2210 in its cradle this morning, the ActiveSync

how do I fix it please?
