Im very new to MS Mobile. Ive been using Symbian since the Sony Ericsson P800 and as recent as the M600i. I recently gladly switched over to MS Mobile and the learning curve is a little curvy.
Where are all the wonderful applications that I can install? How do I know if it works on the TyTN II? Obviously if the requirements specify WM 6.0 Pro, then its gonna work, but what about screen type? SVGA vs VGA?
- Will WM 6.0 (non-professional) or WM 5.0 s/w work on the Kaiser?
- What does the Sym button do? Meaning Fn + Sym on keyboard do?
- Is there no way to copy paste using the keyboard? I am able to highlight text using the shift and directional arrow keys, no way to copy paste? Like CTRL+C/V/X ?
- A better browser? IE doesnt allow tabs like firefox which is really inconvenient. I had Opera on my Symbian OS phones and it worked great!
- When I make an appointment or meeting in Calendar, I want an alarm to go off sometimes an hour before the appointment, sometimes 2 hours, some times 3. How do I set the alarm time within calendar?
The "wonderful applications" are all over the place. Try Handango first. Or look on here and modaco for free apps.
1) WM6 Pro and WM5 will work (Professional means for touchscreen pda). WM (classic etc) Smartphone editions wont work
2) Sym - opens the onscreen symbol keyboard so you can type weird aqnd wonderful characters
3) Never tried it
4) Download Opera for WM 8.65 then
5) Just set the reminder time when you create the new appointment.
Where are all the wonderful applications that I can install?
--> e.g. pocketgear.com, handago.com and others
How do I know if it works on the TyTN II?
--> tytn2 has wm6 os, so 99.9% of everything for wm5 and wm6 will work (also some apps for wm02, wm03)
Obviously if the requirements specify WM 6.0 Pro, then its gonna work, but what about screen type? SVGA vs VGA?
--> 99.9% apps/games are for qvga and tytn2 has qvga, so no problem
Will WM 6.0 (non-professional) or WM 5.0 s/w work on the Kaiser?
--> there is no wm5 for tytn2 now, not sure why it has to be when tytn2 is running the newest os now
What does the Sym button do? Meaning Fn + Sym on keyboard do?
--> input for special charactes (ěščř...)
Is there no way to copy paste using the keyboard? I am able to highlight text using the shift and directional arrow keys, no way to copy paste? Like CTRL+C/V/X ?
--> it is possible to use copy/paste, ctrl+c/v/x
A better browser? IE doesnt allow tabs like firefox which is really inconvenient. I had Opera on my Symbian OS phones and it worked great!
--> opera, and some others also for tytn2

--> also possible
--> --> looks like now you are ready to enjoy wm
ehm, unwired4 seems to be quicker

There is no CTRL-Button on the Keyboard - This was the question ...
But here is the answer, searching for "CTRL" would have found:

ehm, there is no CTRL but CTL button which has the same function as CTRL (default keyboard - see screenshot). ctrl+cvx is possible

On the physical keyboard not the touch screen keyboard.
patr!k,unwired4,
Let me get this straight, I can download any software for the TyTNII as long as it is wm6 pro or wm5 pro. So it must be pro version of 5 or 6 to be compatible.
WM6 Pro and WM5 will work (Professional means for touchscreen pda). WM (classic etc) Smartphone editions wont work

So wm6 pro will work, ok great. Im confused about the latter part, will wm5 or wm pro work on TyTN II?
look, almost 99.9% of software will works- do not worry about it. developers do not make differences between wm6 pro or classic, it is just wm6. the same it is with wm5, wm02 and wm03
WM 6 Pro = Windows Mobile 6 device with a touch screen.
WM 6 Standard = a device without a touch screen (like the Moto Q).
In WM 5 parlance, it's "WM 5" and "WM 5 Smartphone edition."
So you'll want apps that are for WM5/6 that support touch screens when you boil it all down. Don't get ones that list compatabilitiy with the Q...
Hi to all Kaiser, Tilt and Tytn-II user.
I just replaced my Hermes with Tytn-II. My question is how can I separate the SMS/MMS account like my previous Hermes?
Any help, guides, instruction are greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

morisa
Good day all. how are you? hope all is well. i recently purchased a kaiser running dutty's WM 6.1 version. can anyone tell me where i can find the shift key on the keyboard? i looked and cant seem to find it anywhere. thanks in advance
for me its the 2nd button on the bottom left side...
Same here:
2nd button up on the far left of the keyboard. Or you could say the first button on the third row.
All the keyboards I've seen show it as the "Caps Shift" button.
If you using that and saying its not working then it might be the keyboard mapping is messed up. There is a registry key that can fix that problem.
Hi there,
I've searched a lot but did not find any solution to this:
I'm trying to have MortPlayer's hardware buttons mapping feature working.
I can see it in the menus, after I've set "Use application buttons" to "Yes", but the message of the "Assigne device buttons" option still is "To assign application keys, first activate them above!"
Was anyone able to use this feature on Diamond?
Thanks in advance!
I tried too, but I think it's because the hardware buttons of the diamond are not like others pocket PC.
Many others applications don't see them (Mobipocket, Resco photo viewer, ...)
argh! Bad news.
I am having the same problem with my newly updated to WM 6.1 HTC Mogul. This may be an issue with 6.1 and Mortplayer. Can anyone confirm?
Hi,
Been around a while in this forum, though a bit silent.
I am looking for a launcher which I used to have on my O2 Atom. It basically remapped my lower right hand corner soft button to give me direct access to new email new sms new contact new appointment etc etc.
Does anyone know of suck kind of software for windows mobile 6.1. the old one ran on WM5
Regards
What do you have already and on what phone?

Sounds a bit like what the lower right D-Pad button does now on my HTC branded device. It's got an envelope icon on it and pressing it takes me to a menu where I can choose from the various messaging functions my device handles. Do you have this on your device? What more do you need than what this offers? I also have icons in HTC home which do similar things - does your phone have HTC home on it?
There's AED Button .. and HButton .. try searching for them ..
The app is HTC Action screen
