how would you remove F-Secure on the T-Mobile version of the Kaiser? Mine came with F-S pre-loaded. i suspect it is a trial version. I would like to remove it so that I am no longer prompted for activation. I am yet to see a virus on windows mobile
I've removed it from mine, if it wasn't a trial version I'd have left it installed.
It kept nagging every time I switched on so I uninstalled....
It isn't on my Vario III, and I dont remember removing it myself. mmm?
yep got it would like to remove it too!
It can be removed by going to "Settings", "Remove Programs". Standard uninstall.

During the installation (Customization) it installs a file called from the extended rom
Default_CAAVPPC_IMEI_Wiz_range
Which installs “eTrust Antivirus for Pocket Pc”
If you miss this out of the install no slow down etc
to remove the file you need total commander ppc.
install it on the k-jam run it and then at the top input \Extended_Rom\
and move the file to your storage card/other folder on the ppc, hardreset the device and no more slow down
** be careful what you delete tho as it could cause problems etc etc, which I can not be accountable for etc etc ***
Great tip! I saw it first on PocketDubai and alreay appled it. Device works right now, I mean actually WORKS
yeah that must of been were i read it first, could not find the link, but figured i would post it here in case anyone missed it
The antivirus software DOES NOT install itself in hard reset (on my imate k-jam and others too). If its not listed in your "remove programs" then its not installed. So all this talk of the k-jam speeding up when you remove the cab file from the extended rom is pointless. Unless of course there are different roms on the devices?

It's not on mine either , its on the SP5 in the program window but not on my K-Jam . UK Version.. Like the Jam maybe there are differnt external ROM builds???

It does install and consume memory/storage/processor. An easy experiment is to do a cold boot of your device, then look at the storage and memory utilization. Next remove the file indicated and do a cold boot. Examine the numbers again and you will find that they are higher. Ergo something has been removed. I would say that the AV program removes itself from the Installed software list as a means of preventing Viruses from spotting it.

It does install, but it hides from the add remove programs list as robinton says
Mine doesn't seem to have anything antivirus related installed as applications or in the registry.
Is this confirmed and working and how much faster does this make the k-jam/how noticable?
Thx.
does anybody know if the QTEK 9100 installs the same anti-virus software? Just received mine yesterday and think that it runs really slowly in comparison to my old Ipaq 3850!!
I appreciate that it isn't an "apples for apples" comparison, but my IPaq is over 3 years old and runs like a dream - even put TT5 on it and it runs better than on brand new Qtek! :?:
Install total commander and find out.
I have the Sprint PCS (CDMA, US) version of this phone. The extended ROM includes a program that hides everything it loads from the add/remove programs list. I'm assuming the other versions do to.
Unfortunately my extended ROM space is visible, but not writeable or erasable.
I'm wondering, before I try it, will the same technique work for the SkyPE?
Ok, I'll reply to my own post.
I installed Total Commander. I went to the Extended_Rom dir, and moved the av and skype out and into My Docs. Did a hard reset and wham! No more av or skype. Skype was a 2.6m file. Funny thing is, Looking in My Docs, I don't find them.
The device is a bit more peppy now.
I can't seem to find the file mentioned anywhere in my extended ROM. I've using the KJAM WWE 1.1.9.106 EXTENDED ROM version.
Any ideas?

I have WWE 1.1.9.104 EXTENDED ROM, that could be why.
has anyone else got a vario III and noticed that there is no msn/live messenger installed? is there a legit way of getting this on there?
also, when viewing text messages, can i replace the function of the left soft key - its currently set to delete, but on the previous vario II it was new - so i find myself constantly trying to delete messages when trying to write a new one. and its also a friggin pain in the ass to go through the menu selection to start a new text....
any help is much appreciated guys..
A couple of minutes with the forum search function will answer all your questions.
i did try and search it but can't find the answers to these few things... have found other stuff though that has been useful..
edit: i've found a cab for WLM, but still cant resolve the soft key issue in messaging... so if anyone knows... !
Im also looking for this anyone?
Toilet-Duck, Windows live mobile is available here - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Software/

Theres been a windows live cab uploaded on coolsmartphone.com
Heres the link for the thread: http://www.coolsmartphone.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11696
And heres the link for the direct download (off megaupload.com)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WSEQT0ZN
Word of warning, when I installed this app on my phone, it worked fine. However, downloading this app will install both, what seems to be an outdated version of windows live, and also windows messenger onto your phone (well with me it did anyway). But when I decided I didn't want it anymore on my MDA Vario III and tried to uninstall it, the app still remained on my programmes list, but faded out- kind of like if you were to click on a document on your computer, and click on 'cut'.
This problem meant I had to hard reset my device to get rid of any trace of windows live messenger.
Is anyone able to remove software with 6.1 installed? I've tried removing apps via AS, the TyTN II dialog and through the application install software. In all cases the entire application is left on the unit. It functions as if the uninstall was never run. The software is also listed as active in both the unit dialog and the AS dialog. So, if you check out a lot of apps (as I do), your install list will get longer and longer. You'll also have to search and guess which files you can delete manually. Are we back to Pocket PC version 1.0????
I've also noticed extreme memory leak as the day goes on. That was not much of an issue with 6.0.
Can anyone suggest a good ROM replacement that uses 6.0? It doesn't look like there's a factory version of the original TyTN II 6.0 ROM available.

Hey my fellow brother,
Install Pocket Mechanic, it's a trial but you can still use it for 15 days. Install that app on your phone and use the uninstall programs wizard built in. See if that helps you out ok. Let me know how it goes.
I'm also going to add that it fully UNINSTALLS sometimes the uninstall built into the phone leaves shortcuts behind. You get errors everytime you turn on your phone saying File could not be found yada yada yada
Hi there
Does anyone else use SPB Pocket Plus (latest version V4.0.2 - Dec 07) and WM6.1 and suffer the annoying problem where the today plugin icons don't pickup correctly after a reset?
It's easily fixed by clicking to refresh all tabs, but surely it shouldn't do it???
I'm also suffering a problem whereby not all text messages are received by my phone. (I posted in the General section with no joy - am hoping that you software guys may know if something conflicts?!) It's very strange as the phone lights up as if a text is coming through, then nothing happens. I've tried a Hard Reset and restore to no avail.
Wierd thing is, my mate has a Kaiser on Vodafone UK (V1615) running WM6.0 and he has the same problem - I'm on O2-UK so it's not a carrier problem.
I set his Kaiser up for him with much the same software as mine, including SPB PocketPlus V4.0.2...
I also (I know, I'm sorry!) have a problem with the today screen if I change things... For example, if I change the backdrop via Pictures and Video's, more often than not the phone will hang requiring a stylus reset. Am wondering if this is SPB PocketPlus related???
Any idea's? (Sorry about the multi questions!!)
Cheers
sorry about the double post!

As far as the PocketPlus, I am using it and I haven't had a problem at all with the icons or anything else for that matter. I haven't had any problems with the txt msgs either. You may need to reset the mms server?? I don't know about that, I just remember reading about it in another thread somewhere... As for the backdrop change, that's not a pocket plus related conflict. I am not sure what else you have installed, but I have changed mine multiple times in the past 2 days and haven't had a single problem or anything that told me I had reset or that I needed to soft reset the phone. I would suggest unistalling the Pocket Plus and reinstalling it. I know that I have had to do that before because of one of the other SPB proggies i used had changed some values in the registry for it. Otherwise, I would contact SPB, they would know how to fix it. Unless you didn't purchase it...
Hi Killerbeans!
I'v tried uninstalling and re-installing a couple of times to no avail unfortunately
The only other things I have installed (all bought and paid for!) that startup with the phone are SKTools (set to performance optimisation) and Kasperski AntiVirus...
I might try uninstalling those and SPB and reinstalling them one by one...
Cheers for the response though!
I have been havng the spb problems since 6.1 installation as well (I am with AT&T in the US, original Kaiser).
Thanks for pointing out the "Refresh All Tabs" option...I have to stupidly admit that I was not aware of it and I have been fixing the icons one at at a time....very boring...However, I have no solution to offer to the problem, other than to verify that it is a real one.
Hmm running fine on my kaiser with the hyperdragon roms...
Are you using the "close button" plugin? if so, did you enter tmail.exe and poutlook.exe as exceptions? don;t doing this could lead to problems
for the icons, I have the same problems too sometimes, did you install it on main memory? are the missing icons from programs installed on storagecard?
there is an option under today plugins->advanced, "refresh icons in today plug-in when storage card is inserted." try enabling that and see if it helps
Bartus
Hi guys!
Thanks for the responses! It's 'good' to know it's not just me having the SPB problem, although not good that it's happening at all!
I've installed it on Storage Card (as I have since my Wizard days). Using SKTools I've set the SDDeamon to startup 1st so was hoping that'd sort it... it didn't
I'm glad the refresh all tabs helped!
I've added those exceptions Bartus so I'll report back! I have the refresh icons when storage card inserted already which doesn't seem to work. It is the apps located on the storage card that don't load though so it has do be something to do with that.
Go back to 4.0.1 it doesn't have the problem.
Hi Sirooga
I'll give that a try, if I still have it on my HDD!
Cheers!

Today Plugin Problems
I also use pocket plus on my Tilt, and it is apparently version 4.0.2 build 6227. What really annoys me is that the today plugin worked perfectly on wm 6.0, but after that &[email protected]#! 6.1 upgrade, it works fine for a few hours after I installed a lot of programs and soft resetted a bunch, until I backed up my phone. After using sprite Backup 5 ONCE, it deletes all my tabs and icons in the plugin and doesn't remember them no matter what I do. It still is checked in the today plugins menu, but it isn't there as there is nothing for it to show. SPB's got some serious work to do.

Today plug-ins shoud be installed to Main Memory.
Spb 4.01 works far better than 4.02 IMO.
I'm having all kinds of grief trying to get SunTrust's mobile banking software on my AT&T Tilt. I signed up at SunTrust and got the text message on my Tilt, but when I click on the link, I get an error saying, "This version of your device is currently unsupported and not eligible for Mobile Banking." (See attachment.)
I have the official AT&T WM6.1 ROM on my Tilt. Start>Settings>System>About reports the following:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.19214 (Build 19214.1.0.4)
According to SunTrust, that's the supported OS version and build. I called them and they said it's a known AT&T problem, and that AT&T needs to install or update something on my phone. I called AT&T, and they said (correctly, I believe) that there's nothing newer, and it's the bank's problem.
Does anyone know what the problem might be? Or is there a direct download link to the CAB for the SunTrust Mobile Banking?
Thanks!
Progress?
Using KaiserTweak, I had changed the "PIE User Agent CustomBase" parameter to "HTC-8900 (AT&T Tilt)". If I change it to "IE 6.0", it will start the Java midlet manager, but it can't download the Java application from their server.
Does anyone know what the stock key is for the official AT&T WM6.1 ROM? I can change it manually and see if that does the trick.
Thanks!
Same grief. Hopefully this gets kicked off...

I played around with this last night, and was finally able to install Mobile Banking after doing a hard reset. The main problem was the "PIE User Agent CustomBase" registry key. Once I reset that to stock - 8900b/MR2 Mozilla/4.0 - I was able to download.
Do you happen to have KaiserTweak installed? Unfortunately, after installing KaiserTweak, the applet cannot connect to the bank. It's changing some setting that's important to Mobile Banking, but I have no idea what it is.
Where did you find the download? I've looked all over and all I keep finding is the iPhone app
I also looked here but saw nothing: https://www.suntrust.com/portal/server.pt/community/mobile_banking/1783
Just a wild guess, but have you tried to enable\disable cingular\ATT proxy settings?
