    - An electronic telephone book? I used to have a Casio Cassiopeia which was used almost exclusively for addresses and E-mail addresses. I am now looking for something similar with the principal requirements being that it does NOT have rechargeable batteries (The Cassiopeia ran on 2 x AAA batteries)and it should be able to synchronise with a PC. It does not need a huge amount of memory, 4 or 5 MB would be enough and a colour screen is unnecessary. Does anyone know where something like this can be obtained?

    - HTC Touch Audio Manager Hello I have an HTC Touch and when I play my albums, for some reason it seems to play them in alphabetical order, instead of the original order, to ensure this, I even copied the tracks, so the filenames would be in the original order - but for some reason it uses the track name to sort the order of play - has anyone else noticed this, or do I need to adjust some setting?

    - GPS crashes device.exe on Sprint Mogul HTC-6800 (and others?) Hi everyone, There seems to be a bug in the GPS intermediate driver that causes device.exe to crash if the mogul goes into sleep mode while an application has a handle to the GPS device. I've found a reference to this problem in a couple of other forums: http://www.sprintmogul.net/Default.aspx?tabid=54&ptid=370&threadid=3301&forumtype=posts http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=21694 This is a major problem for us as we need our app to keep tracking via GPS even if the device is put into sleep mode. Does anyone know of any workaround for this or an ETA on when it will be fixed? Or how to escalate the importance of this issue? Thanks, Michael Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489916

    - Email Signature programmatically: part 2 Hi all (and Peter specially:) ) I am able to create the signature of a custom account programmatically using the PR_CE_SIGNATURE and PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE properties. So, during the installation of my .cab file in the setup process, I create the mail account and then I start the signature process. When ended, I can see the account and the signature properly set but if I create a new email I cannot see the signature in the mail!! But if I go in the mail option, I go in the page of the signature and without changing anything I press Done, after that I can see the signature in the mail :( Is there anything that I miss? Is there some sort of flush() or "StorePersistentlyAndUseIt"... I add my code...

    - not connecting I have recently got a HTC touch phone. I installed active sync on a computer, and after a few tries, it worked. That was a week back. Since then, it hasn't sync-ed, and another computer I installed it on hasn't sync-ed either with the phone. Once every 5 times I try it says I should install outlook (as i currently use mozilla thunderbird), and then when I press OK, it still doesnt sync/connect. Can anyone suggest anything? All recommendations welcome.. Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489908

    - Communicator mobile stopped working and reinstallation doesnt help Hi, (also posted in Communicator newsgroup... but I think the problem is more related to the device/OS than communicator). Communicator is one of my most critical applications on my Windows mobile device. A couple of days ago it stopped working with the following error "One or more components are missing, please re-install the application" I have tried reinstalling, uninstalling and reinstalling... but its still not working. Is there any way this can be fixed without resetting the device? Regards, Nabeel Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489898

    - HTTP Debugger Does anyone know of an HTTP Debugger tool for WM5? During business hours, and occasionally other times, my Pocket MSN will not connect. I get the message: "The MSN Mobile Hotmail service did not respond to one of Pocket MSN's requests. Some requests may not have been completed." When I search the net, I see that thousands of other users are experiencing this same problem and given a pretty wide variety of paths to chase down as the source of the problem. This happens roughly 8 out of 10 times that I try to Send/Receive from Outlook during business hours. At first I thought T-Mobile's GPRS had scaling problems and could not handle the traffic. The weird thing is, if I do the same using my home WiFi network, same problem. This tells me that MSN has not scaled the Pocket MSN service to meet the needs of the Pocket PC users. When this is happening, I am getting a very fast connection when browsing the Internet. I need some better tools to validate the source of the problem before I can say for sure why this thing is timing out. As a desktop tool I generally use Fiddler or IEWatch if it is just IE traffic. Does anyone know of an equivalent for WM5? Thanks Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489894

    - "Download the Past:" registry hack?? For my WM6-PRO phone, I'm hoping there's a registry hack that will let me save the last 3 months of sync'd messages. When I use the menus: Email Synch Options -> Download the Past... it shows either 1 month or All... but nothing in between! I need 3 months for a trip I'm about to take. I browsed the registry and Googled this a lot, but found very little. Anyone looked into this before? Thanks!

    - If I get memory card, will email be stored on it? I'm becoming increasingly convinced that the reason why my WM6 freaks out all the time is that the large amount of email I receive is filling its internal memory. I don't have a storage card. I see an option in the mail client's configuration to store attachments on the storage card, but attachments aren't really the problem -- I don't download most of them -- the problem is the actual email. If I install a storage card, will email be stored on it by default, and if not, is there a way I can make the email be stored on it rather than in internal memory? -- http://jews4obama2008.wordpress.com/ Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489868

    - Is it possible to display Asian text on English version of Windows I don't have a Pocket PC, I'm just a developer. I'd like to start writing applications for Windows Mobile, so I installed an emulator. It's an English version of Windows Mobile 5, but it cannot display Japanese or Korean texts. I've searched this news group, and found that someone said copying those fonts to Windows\Fonts would help, but it didn't work. I copied the Korean font to the Windows\Fonts folder of the Windows Mobile emulator, but still all Korean text are displayed as boxes. So, English version of Windows Mobile can't display Asian text? I've looked at the Regional settings but there's no such thing like install files for East Asian languages. Only Korean version of Windows Mobile can display Korean texts? Thanks.

    - 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.

    - 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.? -- A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.

    - 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.

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? Best regards. Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489786

    - 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? --Dan Tag: Treo-500v firmware bug causes applications to receive spurious private messages Tag: 489785

    - 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.

    - WM6 Newbie - Need Explanations on the Network management Hello, I'm a newbie to WM6. I've purchased a Samsung i780 in Europe (3G and Wifi). I would like some explanations to understand how the network management is working vs. the connections. For the moment it's a mess (both in my Smartphone and in my head): - I'm using a 3G data package but must go through a proxy to get it unlimited - I'm using my ISP wifi connection (no proxy) - I'm using my office connection but no luck VPN client is not compatible with my company VPN server (Cisco) - I'm using my ActiveSync connection but then it adds my company proxy to my office network which is used at home to connect to my ISP wifi ...

    - Full Voice-to-Text What projects or software is there that does full voice-to-text on a PocketPC or similar device? I've seen some comments saying that devices simply don't have the juice to do this -- mostly people recommend doing the translation off of the PDA. If it exists, though, I'd like to try it on the pda -- I have seen PocketSphinx (http:// www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/pocketsphinx/). Anyone know of any others? Have any experience with this task?

    - Unit Converter with Currency Exchange and Calipers Posted since the mobile need for a converter, especially currency, has been asked for here in the past. A mobile mvp (Dwayne Lamb) has just released a $20 Unit Converter application which includes a currency converter with downloadable currency exchange rates. <http://bettermeasure.com> 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.

    - Remove Windows Live from Windows Mobile 6.0 TMobile Wing On my T-Mobile Wing PDA Phone, I clicked Start > Programs > Windows Live. I did not want to install this and selected cancel. However, it installed, adding lots of icons to my Start menu and a Windows Live email account to Messaging. I need to remove this but there is no link in the Remove Programs service to remove it. In Messaging, I can click and hold and get a DELETE button on every email account, except Windows Live which is grayed out. T-Mobile customer support was unable to figure out how to uninstall and suggested I contact Microsoft but I cannot find anything in the support or knowledge base sections of the Microsoft site to answer this question.

    - 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.

A firmware bug in the Treo-500v causes all applications to receive a
spurious private message 0x00008017 after a phone call is performed from the
device.

This message is normally in a range reserved for private communication
between the threads of an application and should never be sent to an
application by the system, the shell, or any other software on the device.
This firmware bug can cause random application crashes and other issues.

This issue exists in various other windows mobile devices and was reported
to microsoft two years ago (first spotted on the Motorola Q), but apparently
microsoft still does not include testing for this firmware bug in their
platform validation tests, and we see it popping regularly on new devices.

any comment on that from MSFT or a MVP?

this is a serious firmware bug, and it's surprising to still find it in new
devices... platform tests certainely don't catch it.
