Kaiser - TyTN II - GoodLink ver 5

I have not found any threads regarding this so I went ahead and bit the bullet and tried on my GoodLink server. Initially disappointed because my server was setup to send the last ver 4 GoodLink software to the Kaiser. After upgrading then to ver 5 the phone portion of the device would not work no matter what I did. GoodLink seemed to work but the phone wouldn't. I then uninstalled GoodLink via the remove programs (now GoodLink does not require hard reset to get rid of it).
I waited 24 hours (chicken). I then made sure that ver 5 was pushed to the device initially - viola - seems to work great now after 24 hours. No slowing of the device as was the case with other lesser devices (memory and processor speed!).
So far I believe that for those who want GoodLink and PPC the Kaiser may be the best device so far! I'll keep you updated as to any glitches that come up. I fully recognize that with some of the improvements to Pocket Outlook and with always on active sync GoodLink is not as needed as it was before but there are still some "closer to desktop Outlook" advantages for business users.

So - I binned Goodlink some time ago on the Co HP device and opted for a phone the performance was so bad. Based on your recommendation I might try it again. Where can I get the latest CAB? Will my old account registration work on the TyTN - or do I have to go back to the IS dept for another "key" to get setup?
Thx
Graham

The IT dept has to enable the version 5 for your device. In my case I have my own GoodLink server and I tried to install via a cab file and it didn't work for some reason. So I went back to the OTA setup. Just call the IT dept and ask them to enable the version 5 for your device (that is assuming they have upgraded their server yet) and resend you a PIN email. It is three or four mouse clicks so don't let them act like it is much trouble!
If you don't get ver 5 right off the bat then uninstall it don;t go any further because it didn;t work for me to "upgrade" ver 4 to 5!

how much better is it than 4.93? i find it a little buggy and i still need to activesync my calendar and contacts for other Hpone related items.

Goodlink
Goodlink 4.9.3.21 works like a charm, syncs mail, calendar, notes, tasks, the works and it's fast too. Not sure why yours would be 'buggy'; mine works like a charm without failure.
My $0.02

There are definitely some improvements with ver 5 -- one thing to know (I have another post somewhere else) is that you need to prepare for the fact that there is integration with the native contact list and GoodLink. In other words if you still use Active Sync (like via a server) you will get duplicate contacts. The IT person for the GoodLink server has a setting to choose what parts of you contact list will get sync'd with the native contact list for "use with voice dialing" etc (as per GoodLink's literature), i.e, Last, First, work, home, fax, email. Once you figure out what is going on it is actually better because the native contact list takes up less space because you can pick and choose (the IT GoodLink admin guy) what is sync'd.
All the while the GoodLink Calendar list , of course, gets fully sync's as it is designed to do.
[Interestingly with vers 5 server and ver 5 on the device the GoodLink admin person can actually "dis-allow" the use of any particular application on your device. Every program you have on your device shows up on the GoodLink Mangemenet Console. It's pretty cool -- that is if you have access to the server!!!]
If you have question just ask and I'll try to answer them since I have my own server
PS as far as the duplicate contact thing you need to use PPContactsMgr and delete ALL of your native contacts, then tell active sync NOT to sync contacts and then let GoodLink do its thing as far as syncing the selected fields of you native contact list.
PSS I really like using GoodLink so far -- with it's limited syncing of the native contacts list which then work NICELY with PocketCM to make calls text msgs etc

...it's justification why good Quality Control is important !!

i dont have access to the server. so that means my IT can see ALL the apps that areon my device and control what I can / cannot use?

Iten I was browsing sure does. I was really surprised when I was browsing my new management console for ver 5 and click on a tab that took a minute or two to respond (I didn't know at the time but it was retrieving from my device) and then showed my applications on my device and gave options for which to allow and which to disallow!!
I didn't want to mess anything up so I didn't experiment.

I tried the OTA setup and it gave me version 6(!).. Needless to say my old PIN wasn't valid - and the IT dept wouldn't enable it for me. They said "can't use none approved devices on Company networks".. so I can't use my TyTNII with Goodlink. I think the PIN was for v5.. but I don't see how to get the v5 CAB

Outlook Mobile | html email question(s)

I've have two different issues with Outlook mobile on my Tilt. I hope you guys can provide me with hints and workarounds.
Problem 1:
Outlook Mobile will not download Internet pictures. I don't want to keep telling Outlook to "Download Internet Pictures" because they were blocked. -Is there a way to permanently allow all pictures to download, so I don't have to click [2x] (i.e. Internet Pictures Blocked, Download Internet Pictures)?
Problem 2:
None of my html links are working. I keep getting an OperaLaunch.exe error "The file 'OperaLaunch' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.' Subsequently I am unable to click on any links whether they are embedded within a picture or textual.
There must be some tweaks for this, perhaps a reg edit or something... please help
THANKS!

Raven,I appreciate the input but unfortunately that doesn't solve my problem. I have Opera 8.65 and been using it for a while to no avail with respect to this issue. [responding from my Tilt in Opera Mobile]-prealphageek

I was getting that same error and to fix it I searched the registry for operalaunch and changed it to opera.exe
Sorry I don't have the exact key that needs to be changed but that's how to fix it.

There are 14 different keys using operalaunch.exe keys; Do I change all of them? This still doesn't answer problem 1.

Now how to get Outlook Mobile to automatically download all html pictures...
thanks again!!!
prealphageek

can anyone help with the html download?

Just getting this back on the radar. I'd like to get Pocket Outlook to automatically download images without me having to manually do it for every email. i.e. html emails...

That question has been asked many, many times and as far as I know, it has yet to be answered.
I think every newbie that comes here asks that question...

Chuck Pocket Outlook AND Flexmail.
Install ProfiMail from lonelycatgames.com - onto the storage card. It is great at HTML email! I think it is a much more efficient email app for a small screen. It also eliminates that frustrating BS of selecting the messages you want to download, then downloading them in a separate step.

Thanks for the tip.. I tried it out.. not exactly my cup of tea. It seemed a little clunky for me, plus I like using touchflo while reading mail. I can live with pocket outlook until there is a better fix. I prefer a real fix rather than a installing (masking the problem) new software to replace existing tools. that's just my 2 cents.

IT Pros Needed to Test Mobile Monitor Application

I have a new project I'm working on for an application that allows me to do quick checks on server availability from my AT&T Tilt. This is the first version of the software and I'm looking for suggestions on improvements, bugs, etc. The software has been tested on Windows Mobile 5, 6, and 6.1. More information available at http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/am2008f.htm
The application is available in a PC Installer version as well as a CAB file and is posted at:
http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/AlertMe2008FWE.zip (PC Installer)
and
http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/AlertMe2008FWE.CAB (The CAB installer also requires the OpenNETCF to be installed as well (http://www.opennetcf.com)
Point release update includes:
o Log Viewer Tab (see new screen capture)
o Option to email log (note - this requires Pocket Outlook to be configured with an account)
Please post any suggestions you may have.

Looks good I'll have a look at it and test it our servers.
Thanks

Yea looks really promising I'll give it a shot too. Something to do in my meetings.

its nice to see apps that cater to webmasters.. something ppc's lack. im *trying* to cook some sftp+ssh app myself.
i think a cool feature in your app would be to schedule automatic checks on the site ever X minute with status/log info. perhaps even an audio/visual alert option that notifies you when it's offline.
i see this checks for http, but does it check for the right http 200 code? reason i ask, is sometimes a website http can be "online" but throwing out http error, which should report back as "offline/problem"

Initially this was meant to be a scheduled application. This release was to test viability. As soon as I can dig up the details on how to schedule the application, I'll release the point release with this feature.
I'll look at adding the parsing of the response to check for the 200 code. There is a log file that gets generated, and I will be adding a menu function to both view and email the log.

Gotta love Windows Permission settings - ugh. The downloads shoudl be working now.

Point release Available
The new version allows for viewing of the log file more than anything else. Also, both the CAB and PC installers include the required OpenNETCF CAB, so things are cleaner on the install.
The emailing of the log file requires a Pocket Outlook account to be setup. I have only tested this with an Exchange server setup, so anyone running IMAP/POP/etc, let me know if it works. It should default to the first email setting in POutlook.
Next version should hopefully have the scheduling ability.

You said you're working on implementing a periodical checker.
Good. Better yet is SMS on error, or E-Mail on error (or both.) and option to play audible alert.
That way you could SMS yourself to grab your attention, or just use the built-in feature to play a sound. You could also have it E-Mail someone in your organization or perhaps your data center (with a predefinable template no doubt!) that the server is off line.
I work at a datacenter as a sysadmin, and I do think these features could go to good use.

Yep. As soon as I get the scheduling piece down, then the fun begins. At that point, failures will be alerted via a choice of alarms (siren type MP3s requested <G>), vibration & SMS/MMS/Email.
I also want to do as the poster above suggested and actually parse the results for other, discrete errors (ie: Web server is online, but a 404 is received).
Also, if possible, color coding the log as well.

SQL Server CE or XML?
Got the scheduling portion down and now have a question for folks who would use the app.
Which would you prefer, the use of SQL Server CF or just a local XML file to store the list of servers and ports to scan?
I can see benefits of both, but would like your feedback.

I'm downloading it right now and will give it a try. As a Linux system administrator, I would urge you to avoid using a vendor specific file format for anything. Go with xml. Any administrator who can't deal with that should seek a new line of work, anyway.

Ah-hem, What ROM are you using, You might try to update to the newest NetCF
Apparently, The CAB installer also requires the OpenNETCF to be installed as well (http://www.opennetcf.com)

I tracked down the package I needed from Microsoft and now AlertMe is working. It seems a small but useful tool, though definitely not a replacement for Nagios.
The immediate thing I noticed is it doesn't remember the checkboxes selected when you pick the domain/ip from the history. That would be a nice little feature.

Looks nice. I haven't downloaded it yet, but on the second screenshot tab can you add a "custom" option to put in a port that isn't listed?

Duh - don't know why I didn't think of that. It will be added to the next release. I'm fighting off a bout of bronchitis at the moment, but hopefully the next release will be in a week or so and include this along with the scheduling.

XML is the easier way to go. This should also allow you to bull the "jobs.xml" over to a PC for easier editing. Then push it back to the device.

TYTN 2 & the 3 network skype

Hi everyone,
i went to a 3store today to get a TYTN 2 on 3 network UK. I thought we could use the free skype minutes they offer on other handsets, but they said no, use the wifi!!!
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to connect to their skype service. Thanks
PS: Please include links to any software or recent methods you might know.

Hi, I'd also like to know if this possible. Have a 3 PAYG sim and get 30 days free skype when I pay for the internet add-on but cannot work out how to use the 3G network for my calls. Cheers

I think fring will do what you want.
The website says you can make skype calls.
www.fring.com "fring is based on a unique thin-client technology that for the first time enables true VoIP over 3G, GPRS and WiFi networks"
I installed it on my stock rom AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) but have not tested.
I hope that helps.

any java skype client in the uk?

Thanks but i think for that you should have access to the internet. I can easily use the skype program instead. The problem is that skype is not the type of skype 3 network is using ( they use a java based program).
I read an article and someone had used the skype from a LG phones with 3 and Esmertec Jbed, but that was an Australian version. does anyone have a UK version?

This would rock if it is possible! Anyone know where to download a UK version?

I think we need to find someone with a non nokia phone from 3 UK, so he can give us the jar file. preferably LG
What do you think?

anyone from uk? or anyone knows a professional UK website? please

Anyone found this?

Can anyone with a TyTn II from the 3 network confirm if it comes with Planet 3 and Skype software installed?

I use Three...
Ah, you forgot to read the ultra-small fine print that states that the offer for *all* phones has expired and it's now only on *selected* handsets that seem to exclude the TyTN 2, also you can't get the sim-only and install the Three free Skype or Live Messenger on a non-Three phone+rom without some custom ROM hacking.
To make matters worse, if you get the £5 Unlimited Internet Access, the small print is that Three block Skype and Live Messenger so they can't be used (thought I think you can buy the £10 option that allows them?) - even if you want to pay for them outside the unlimited bundle. You can use IM+ BeejiveIM etc, to access Live Messenger though, and as far as I'm aware it seems to be included in the Unlimited access...
Oh, and if you want to access Planet3/My3 on your phone you can do so, but first you need to go into Advanced Config and change your "User Agent Custom Base" to "HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0" and then use the URL "http://mobile.three.co.uk/837_sc/index.do"
The Planet3/My3 will only work when accessing the page though the 3 connection and not WiFI or ActiveSync, but is acuttaly pritty nifty at checking you accound balance, tops ups, addons and such like.

Hi guys,
This is a solution for the Skype on Three network issue. I had placed it on another forum (http://www.3g.co.uk/3GForum/showthread.php?p=385677) and one guy has reported it working, but apparently, it might not work with WM5, only with WM6. Please give it a whirl and let me know if it works for you.
Feedback is great for both me as well as others
**********************************************************
Annuntio vobis gaudium magnum
(I have great and joyous news)
I believe that I have succeeded in getting the native Iskoot WM6 client for Skype to connect to the Three/3 service. I am still testing it and would appreciate your feedback.
Steps
a) Download and install the Iskoot client for Windows Mobile 6 . Try the direct link here (http://www.iskoot.com/pc_download/Wi...1.54_WMpro.CAB)
b) After installation, start the application, but DO NOT sign in. Instead exit it. The reason for doing this is to create the default registry entries for Iskoot.
c) Now start your favourite registry editor (I personally use Resco Registry Editor, but you should be able to use any. Please do not ask me how to use the registry editor. This is not the appropraite forum.)
d) Head for the following location in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE
e) Update all the following entries to the same value "http://mobile.three.co.uk/948" (do not include the "double quotes")
BackupHost
CallUrl
DefaultSkHost
Pushhost
f) Exit the registry editor of choice and start and log into Iskoot. This might take some time. It took me about five minutes.
It should now be configured to connect to the 3 Skype service. To cross-verify, check that the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE\Cal lNumber has the value +447838333894 (the 3 Skype dial-out number). It should be automatically added by the software.
As I have mentioned earlier, I am still testing this. However, with this implementation, it should not use your included minutes, but the free Skype allocation. Please test the same and let us all know if that is the case or you have noticed that your inclusive minutes have been used up.
I do not know how to modify cabs. But if somebody can rebuild the original Iskoot cab with these settings built-in, that would be great.
I have noticed that the sound quality on this is considerably better as compared to the Skype Java client.
Legalese: The above is merely advisory and there is no warranty, implied or otherwise, for the same.
**********************************************************

Thanks for the information. I tried it on my Hermes and it worked great.
Unfortunately, when I tried the same thing on my Kaiser, all I ever get is "Currently unable to connect".
I can't see why there would be any difference between the two phones, but the Hermes never fails and the Kaiser never succeeds!
Any suggestions?

SkypeOut is officially supported (if not, very soon) by 3UK,
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/allfeatures/3skypephone/overseascalling/
with some restrictions (read the small print!)
I failed to get Skypein to work, however.
And Skypeout is a bit unstable at the moment, might be 3UK is upgrading their servers...

I think what some people did is to download a java version of the iskoot (for other non-WM phone) and decompiled the java class/jad file and find the URL string. I guess if you can somehow intercept the outgoing network traffic from a 3 customized iskoot client running on another phone (perhaps on a Symbian phone trying to communicate to the server via wifi, which wouldn't connect successfully I believe, but still let you), parse the network packet to find out its intended destination will do the trick too.

Thanks for the tip, but the problem is that the only phone with skype is the amoi 8512 (http://www.3skypephone.com/english/index.html have you ever seen it?) I do not have x-series with skype, but a specific offer wich works only with this phone. This phone does not have wifi, so I cannot sniff packet through network, and the iskoot client is not java, but specifically made for it (when I run it, the Java log does not apper), so I do not know how I could extract the url. The only thing I have done is to get its user agent to replace it on the Tytn II, the Amoi 8512 user agent is " [FONT=&quot]Amoi 8512/R22.0 NF-Browser/3.3[/FONT]" without double quote, of course.

The only thing I have done is to get its user agent to replace it on the Tytn II, the Amoi 8512 user agent is " [FONT=&quot]Amoi 8512/R22.0 NF-Browser/3.3[/FONT]" without double quote, of course.

I was in your situation until a week ago when I found the 3 UK setting. It is so frustrating that I knew all it requires is a correct URL address yet I didn't know what it is!
What you may want to try is to first identify which X-series phone that 3 Italy support apart from the skypephone. And then change your Tytn II 's broswer agent string to one of those phone that use a JAVA iskoot client instead of a native client like Symbian client. Then use your phone browser to 3 ITA portal and try to download the iskoot (Skype) software. 3 ITA server should now think that you have a compatible phone so it will present you with the Java client. Once you go the .jar file, you can proceed to extract the URL from there...
I think people used SEW910I to get the 3 Australia client.
Try this for the Browser agent string:
SonyEricssonW910i/R1CA Browser/NetFront/3.4 Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1
I tried the above suggestion myself to try to get the URL from 3 UK's client, but I can't remember why I stopped, and then later I found that the URL is already know on some other forums on the Internet...
Good luck!

You are right, it is frustriating knowing I cannot use my Kaiser just because I do not know a simple url!!
I will have a look at this right now. Thanks for your help

Website Monitor

I was wondering if there is any windows mobile software that can monitor some specific websites on http or on specific ports.
I'm a web developer with some servers which I want to check every 10 minutes if they are online, and since i always have my mobile it would be useful if i could run some program on it.
I found the following software:
- Porta+ http://portaplus.com/
This one does not work on windows mobile 6, it always says it doesn't find a data connection, even not when I use wifi or gprs
Perhaps someone has something better?
Found in the Windows Mobile MarketPlace a nice one: "Server Monitor"

Email Alerts?
In my opinion, the far better option is to run some server-side monitoring package which sends out email alerts. Then use push email to your phone. Much more powerful monitoring can then be done, you can filter which alerts you want to get, and you'll still have monitoring being performed (but without the alerts) if you switch your phone off.
Nagios is one option - my preference is the free version of Big Brother (see http://bb4.org/home1.html - available in *nix or Windows versions). Both of those would do what you want - and more.

Thanx for the reply, but the problem is that I don't have a server where I can runs this sort a software, I only have dedicated servers pure for http en sql.
My phone is always on and has a internet plan so it would be easy if i could run something like porta+ on my phone.
Perhaps someone else has a solution?
Greetingz Themuzz

Ask porta+ if they can update it?

Just did, i'm wondering what their response will be.
But in the mean time, if anyone has another solution?

Well, found a nice one (after a year ) on the Windows Mobile MarketPlace. Namely "Server Monitor".
(For the people who where still searching)
