So i see people getting all butt crazy about the leaked winmo 6.1 and how its coming to the kaiser, but from what i have seen from the screen shots it looks the exact same. So what im wanting to know is what exactly is different in this version and how is it benefiting us more than cooked 6.0 roms? Thanks for the info guys.
Something has to know, i read the other thread and saw many people so excited that couldnt wait to flash, but why so antsy?
B/C it's new and different, and we all have to be constantly changing our phones to be happy?

Here’s the full run-down of additions that you can expect to see in the WinMo6.1 update (from BGR):
* Copy / Paste
* Domain Enroll in Settings (Enrolling in a domain will connect your device with company resources.)
* New home screen (pan left and right to check out missed calls, notifications like email, sms, etc.)
* Change Master Security Code
* Added text input settings
* Recent Programs when pressing Start menu
* Threaded SMS
* When you compose an email, or SMS, and start typing the name of the contact in the “To:” field, the contact names finally pop up like Windows Mobile Professional!
* Internet Explorer now lets you define a homepage, and also zoom in and out using a nice and clean interface

i've also heard a rumor, but i dont know how true it is.......that apparently by using wm 6.1, apparently the user will become more good looking by exactly 23.8%
will wm6.1 fix that bluetooth garble noise issue with nissan/infiniti cars?

And the user's penis/breast's (depending on your sex) will enlarge by approximately 43.8%
YES!!! with 43.8 percent bigger breasts I might never have to leave home again!!!! I can entertain myself forever between my Hermes, my Kaiser, and my boobies!!!
Seriously... if what I've flashed to my Hermes is any indication, it's yawnsville man.
I think with WM 6.1 They'll just try to bring the SP edition more close to the Pro one ...

Hey Everyone,
I am looking to send a single sms to specific multiple contacts. I understand that the sms feature in WM6 allows you to autocomplete a contact by typing theyre name as you go, I am looking for however a CAB file or something that will allow me to do something like tick the people i want to send to?
I hope they're is something like this out for WM6, otherwise its a long time sending about 200 mobiles a new number ha ha.
I'm not a often poster, but long time viewer, and i know you all know your stuff and i'm thankful for anything you can tell me!

In Duttys 6.1 rom there is something called groupsms, I dont know how/if it works...but I know its there , may be what you are looking for

Don't know if you'd only be satisfied with ticking multiple names, but the auto-complete thing does allow you to type in more than one name. I assume you realized that? Alternatively you can just continually click on "add recipient" and select them all one-by-one, though that's a pain in the ass. I've found the autocomplete for multiple recipients to be pretty fast. Do you not find that to be the case?
I was chatting to a few people on palringo's MoDaCo group and one user suggested Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.0 Demo. It does exactly what i wanted to do on the phone but on windows XP!
I only really needed it as a one off but i would recommend it as a solutions especially if your going to use it reguarly
Thanks for your comments and suggestions though, your all good people!
Sean Saunders
you can try this software SMS Assistant from QimSoft
http://www.qimsoft.com/
After install, it will add one Menu item "Add Recipients" at the bottom of Menu
Click it then it allow you to multi select contact
yeah I use group sms as well you can find it in the development thread. didn't realize it was included in the 6.1 rom as well.

Don't worry mate there is an ultimate solution for GRoup SMS... Although i already answer this query in this forum before but anyway...
You definitely need a RJV SMS SCHEDULER OR SHUBAROO'S GROUP SMS 1.4.4 ...
just goto www.freewarepocketpc.net and search it there

1. I suggest IM+ for IM or mundu messenger or agile messenger
2. can't help with podcasts because i don't need those.
3. RSSHub works for RSS I believe.
4. your phone has a built in email client of outlook
5. i don't draw on my phone but the Notes program could be a suitable freebie for you thats built in
6. your phone changes time automatically with DST when you have it ticked in phone settings
7. for video there's a TCPMP completed package around with all codecs for it except flv which can be sound on sourceforge(use google)
8. wardriving is a bad bad thing
9. your phone has standard picture viewing but you could try S2V or HTC Album
Thanks (very much) to all for the suggestions, to the "use google crowd"; i obviously annoyed you and for that i am sorry but the point of my posting was asking for recommendations.

Honestly this is the most intelligent comment I have ever read. If you want to find good programs, then search and get your feet wet. You will install crapware and find out you don't like it, thats the only way to find out what is good and what is bad. Thats part of the fun of winMo, its all about finding what works great for you and your phone!!.
I tend to use freewareppc.com (not to be confused with freewarepocketpc.net) and ppc4all.com (search the freebies), although most of the best freewares can be found right here at xda dev. If it's worth having, at some point somebody will have suggested or recommended it and posted a link. Only trouble is that nearly always requires knowing exactly what you're after. Good luck!

I suppose you want someone to install it for you, configure it, and use it for you too? You need to get aquainted with how to find stuff, etc. There's a zillion sites that are very easily found, but gee, I guess I better not say how.
BTW, you whining that people were being smartass to you while being a smartass is, well, dumbass.

Go easy, man. Not everyone is in the XDA mind set when they start. I'm sure first couple of people who told him to use google made their point. We all have been there one day. Now he knows.
@gaikokujinkyofusho: I recommend having a read through the PocketPC experts awards results. Lots of reviews, lots of good software. Not all free, but lots worth having (and buying!)

How about stop being such a n00b and read the wiki. That tells you freeware sites etc
a few solutions
I would recomdend using the windows mobile email app especially if your email uses IMAP4
its realy sgood can cehck every 1,15,30 etc
there is a realy nice youtube app you can find the link in a post or pm me if u can't and ill email it to you
if your using aim u can download the "aim for ppc" from aol uk its what I used on my wizad now I use the installed one that came with stock att tilt rom
Basic WinMob Apps
Gaiko,
You may want to back up a bit and begin by gaining some control over the OS first.
WinMob doesn't do automated profile switching (ring settings, backlight settings...) beyond "off" and "mute."
WinMob also doesn't clean up after itself very well. You will notice that, as you use your winmob device it will get slower and slooower. So you may want to begin with a couple of basic applications like ...
phoneAlarm (pocketmax.net), which lets you manage ring tones, alerts volumes, backlight level and time to turn off... (profiles)
MemMaid (Dinar Soft) which helps keep your device's memory freed up to operate all the apps you are dying to find and install.
I would also highly recommend the following...
BeyondPod for both RSS reading and podcasts. I have tried most of what's available. BP works best and is free.
ProfiMail for email. If you are using POP email, Profi is simply the best. The user interface is very straight forward and efficient and it renders html email better than any other program I have used by far. It also lets you store email on the card (vs. internal memory). ProfiMail does not, however, integrate with your calendar app to send notifications about meetings... The big player in this space is FlexMail. BUT, the rendering of HTML mail sucks - at best - and the UI is not at all user friendly (and I use this app for my pushed email account). It will, however, integrate with your calendar to send and receive notifications.
Opera for web browsing. Period! Pay version currently @ 8.65 with 9 promised sometime before the turn of the decade.
Calendar program. Pocket Informant. Period.
When it comes to where to find your apps, check the XDA store first. Then, I recommend MobiHand and the rest. I try to go straight to the developers sites once I have found them in the hopes that they get to keep more of the price of the app that way.
Happy hunting, Richard

You are one of the few people on this site who has considered a question before replying with an easy answer.
Yes this is a developer’s site, but developers work best through collaboration and being considerate to the client / users needs. Who is to say that the OP won’t end up contributing hugely in one way or another to this community? I personally think there are some on this forum who seem to be looking for a fight. I would also hazard a guess that most of these types of people aren’t actually developers themselves, but like to feel big by belittling others in public.
I try to keep my head down on these forums in fear of reprisal, where as other forums make you feel welcome and people try and help each other.

In fact its the complete opposite. You will find this site to be a wealth of information and everyone is more than happy to help, but alot of people (myself included) get annoyed when we see the same threads posted again and again when all people need to do is read the wiki or use the search option. These tools are there for a reason because they help people.
You will find everyone on here can be your best friend if you use the search option as all you do is create another redundant thread.
Dont take this personally as this happens every day
SlyTuk,
Thanks for the kind words.
I figure most of the folks doing the flaming need to get their hand out of their pants, go outside and soak in a little vitamin D (sun).
And I don't worry too much about them.
Once upon a time I was in Gaiko's shoes trying to understand WinMob after years with EPOC-->Symbian. I got lots of help from this forum. It is nice to be able to re-pay the value I get here as an end-user.
Hi,
does anybody know how to change the softkey in the mail menue. My Problem is that when i receive outlook pushmail emails and i open a email that i want to answer i have only the option reply to all. In my old device i had the key reply or answer (it´s german ROM).
any ideas? because actually i have to go to menue and then reply. that works but the direct softkey Reply (not to all) would be better.
I have bepe's ROM v0.52 (German) and have noticed it too.
I think this is a translation error. Instead of "Antworten" it says "Allen Antworten".
that's no translation error, it's also in the standard wwe
roms.
i've noticed this since i have my diamond, but i don't
want to bother anyone here with that, because i think
that htc will fix this in a future release.
perhaps a regkey exists in which we could fix this for
ourself, i will investigate that!
for now, there is a simple solution: go to "menue>reply>reply"
and you would have the standard reply...
regards,
markus
Hello all,

I hear ya, but this is what this forum is for; I don't think people will mind.
Has anyone come across a way of modifying this soft key to once again serve as a "reply" only finction instead of "reply all"?
Any insight would be much appreciated!
Regards,
I came across this "bug" also, but I solved it by entering my own email address in the advanced options of my email account. When you don't do that and you hit the reply all button, you will reply to the original sender, but also to yourself.
This is how to do it:
1. Open active sync
2. Click MENU
3. Select: OPTIONS
You now see the items to synch with your exchange server.
4. Select EMAIL
At the bottom you have 2 buttons, DELETE and CONFIGURE (or something else in your own language)
5. Click CONFIGURE
You are now in the Syncoptions for e-mail screen
6. Click the Advanced button
In the Advanced email options screen, at the bottom you can fill in your email address.
7. Fill in your email address and finish all the upcomming screens.
When you now hit the Reply All button, you only reply to the original sender and not to yourself anymore. Furthermore there is no way to change it to reply instead of Reply All.

Absolutely! What a dumb feature. Here is your fix my friends and, yes, that's why we're all here.
Using any Registry editor (like CeRegedit) here's the key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\OutlookEnhancement
Change the OutlookEnhancement dll value data to "" (double quote) and then soft reset.
Hope this makes sense to you but it works as I've been doing it after every hard reset for months and months!
Cheers
Brilliant!!!!!
Thanks very much for the fix, WMguy; it worked like a charm! On a side note, I find it a bit odd that they'd consider this an 'enhancement'
Thanks also to MRE-net for the suggestion. I in fact already had my email address assigned to the account, and didn't actually experience the problem of emails returning to my own account; it just bothered me that the "reply all" button was still present when it didn't make any sense, and I knew there HAD to be a proper solution. Turns out there was!
Thanks again to everyone for the suggestions. That's why I love this forum!
Keep up the good work!

[IDEA]A new contact app(2 preview screenshots)
Does anybody think the built-in contact app is not easy to use?
I'm working on a new contact app called aContact which provides a new UI to access to contact data and some more features.
So,anybody has any idea about this new app or found the disadvantages of the built-in contact app??
THANKS
I will post the scrrenshots after I finished the first version.
Thanks again for your advices!

nice idea even though i dont mind the g1's contact app i know it can be better.
some things i think you should add:
-ability to view contacts in groups or categories
- if possible assign ringtones to group
- have the number/letter show up when scrolling like the icontact for wm
- integrate it so that when someone send you a number you can long press and add number to you contact manager or you can make it retrieve contacts through google.
- have birthday

[REQ] Android App Ideas
hello android users,
I am a developer on the windows mobile side of things (see the M2DC thread for an example of my work) and I am thinking I might like to move over to developing for android.
I have a few problems, first, I don't have a device, this is not a huge deal at the moment because I can just use the SDK emulator for now, but I will be purchasing a device later on if I like developing for this platform. The second problem is that I need help with ideas for some simple apps... since I do not have a G1 to handle on a daily basis I don't really get the chance to feel things out and discover where an app might come in useful.
So my request is this. Does anyone have any ideas for "simple" android applications? Anything they wish the phone did better? Or a simple functionality that they wish the phone had? Reading through this forum it looks like there is a demand for OCR and possibly something to make applying new themes/skins easier? Or the TextTwist Game?
Of these 3 the game sounds the most interesting, the theme changer sounds good too because that is what my current development in windows mobile does, and the OCR is most likely out of my league at the moment.
I am open to any app ideas, I'm just looking for something to get me started and get me interested in the platform.
A few apps i would like to see as follows
1. A reboot option in shut down menu "if possible".
2. Digital Clock for homescreen
3. Screen Capture
4. Camera Zoom option
5. Checkers
Hope this helps a bit, good luck!
An application that kills tasks running in the background (although most folks say it's not possible right now), video recorder, night mode for camera, or Sirius/XM internet streamer similar to SiriusWM5 (I'm not sure that one is possible at the moment either...). Of course, you could create widgets (something more simple) but the source code won't be available to next year allegedly.
- Office suite (word and excel file editor)
- Youtube downloader from phone (like iphone mxtube)
- Super Mario Chronicles !!!!!
- FlightGear portable
- compiz fusion !! (not important but just tto test phone power to my friend that have an Iphone)
- More widget

You can view contacts in groups - Contacts - Menu - Display Group (created on GMAIL page).
Ringtones to groups would be nice, but for now you may just display a group and assign them all a ringtone
The long press to dial/save numbers in SMS has been addressed and should be in the final version of Android 1.0.
A birthday? Ehrmm.... Would personally prefer that to stay where it is (in my calendar).
I would like it to integrate the Dialer and searching for contacts, so i can just start typing a name or a number and it would show me the matching contacts. (I think SpellDial does this but is not very robust).
Thanks

Thank you very much for the input guys, I really appreciate it. These lists are definitely getting the creative juices flowing... I will see what I can put together.
If possible I will open source the beta version of my first program and post the beta packages here on xda for everyone to use without charge... I am still learning the whole process so we will see what happens in the end
Thank you for the suggestions, and I am still open to hearing more
I guess "simple" is also relative to your level of proficiency in Java and mobile development. As far as holes in the shipped operating system that could use fixing, there are many points to attack. Some could be done in the JVM, others would have to be done in native c. Examples include:
An office suite
Video recording
Touchscreen text input (API will expose this in 09Q1)
A simple but high-quality word or puzzle game would be great tho.
Edit: welcome aboard the Android side too ;-)

I agree with you 100%, the system stuff sounds good, but of the posted ideas and from what I have seen there is a small demand for "simple" games, and this is the direction I plan on going initially, games are fun to make and they should give me a decent overview of what is involved in throwing together an app.
As far as my java proficiency... I can definitely get by. I have a few websites that rely completely on the google web toolkit, and my bachelors degree was typical of an early 2008 CS curriculum, 2 years of java to learn what OO programming is, and then 2 years of C to learn about the fun stuff (pointers, threads, compilers, OS's, etc...). but like I said before I am just looking to make a traditional application, and I think that it is going to end up being a game of some sort,
I don't have a device yet, if I get one it would be pretty much a development only device, so I am trying to get my feet wet with an app or 2 before I decide to get one. I did manage to get a few minutes with a G1 today and I must say that the device feels so much better than my Titan, that capacitive touchscreen is awesome.
Once I get something going I will startup a new project on google code so I can take advantage of the free svn server and start posting my progress

Capacitive touch screens feel great and and quite responsive but they do have their caveats too. The main one is that accuracy of input is lower than with a stylus. You'll have to keep that in mind when you design the UI. You can scale the size of the emulator on screen to match an actual G1's physical screen size (emulated pixels might be mangled though).
