Just thinking of moving from a Treo 650 to a HTC TyTN 11
I use the native Palm desktop for the Treo 650 for some reason, even tho' we have an EasySync Pro licence
If I go for the HTC TyTN 11, best to use EasySync Pro to load data from the Treo to Notes - presume I'll have to remove the native Palm application first?
And then sync the HTC TyTN 11 to Notes - and will need Active Synch 4.5 from Microsoft I guess?
And is this the best place to ask other newbie questions?
Thanks all
S'all right - cracked it using XTND Connect, which works with the native Palm utility to back up the Treo to the PC - part to Notes and part to a repository - and then used XTND Connect with Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 to get the data onto the HTC TynTN II
Hope this helps someone else?
Still do not know why Easysync Pro does not work tho' - maybe just does not like being on the same box as has the Palm utilities - certainly the Treo tries to synch with its usual utility even with Easysync Pro open
Hmmm - now realise as I'm using Windows Mobile 6 and Notes client v8.0 that EasySynch Pro will not work with either! IBM techies now thinking about th fro the next EasySynch upgrade I believe!
hahaha I spent like 20 seconds googling for "TyTN 11" thinking it was a new HTC device I've never heard of before I realized he meant the "TyTN II".

I should be getting my Kaiser the end of this week. Is there anything I should do immediately after receiving it?
Getting the Kaiser because my 8125 broke (the usb breaking issue). I'm no stranger to flashing roms, but just wondering whats the scenario with the new device.
Will I notice a big difference as far as speed/performance compared to my 8125.
Thanks!
Visit SPBsoftwarehouse.com and checkout SPB Mobile Shell - SPB Diary and SPB Phone Suite. Then for fun SPB Brain Evolution.
Then later on get PHM Registry Editor (free).
Then look into memmaid for maintenence.
Check out dutty's rom (#7 I believe).

I'd probably opt for
1) SPB's pocket plus
2) Wisbar advance 3
I'd also get
a) PHM Registry editor (free)
b) TCPMP (free)
c) MemMaid
d) Kaiser Tweaks (free)
If you want GPS navigation
i) Microsoft Live Search (free)
ii) Google Maps (free)
iii) TomTom Navigator 6 (dependant on if you have Kaiser or variant, and where you live -- free/paid)
The Kaiser ships with "Sprite Backup", this is a an older version, but works OK. Dont contemplate changing if for the "Upgraded version" or SPB Backup unless you have issues
The Kaiser also ships with GPRS monitor, this is SPB's GPRS monitor under a different name.
You might want to use the HTC Home Customiser thats around, however backup your phone before doing so (I changed my clock font using it).
the first thing to know is that htc suck because there is no hardware acceleration for the qualcom chip coz they don t want to relese the driver lol

If I had to do it over again, I would not have gone for the Kaiser. As it stands, I will likely go back to my 8125 at least for a little while until some of the issues get worked out.
You may be better off finding a cheap 8525 from ebay to use until something lives up to what you would expect from the specs. The Kaiser has many issues. Here's a few
1. Many people have complained about poor Bluetooth headset volume. This might require purchasing a new headset.
2. Since the 8125 days, you now need to buy and adapter to use a standard 3.5 headphone jack.
3. Video playback is very poor
4. Game play for anything with 3D graphics (hearsay to me) is very poor.
5. TouchFlo - It is so buggy it is pretty much useless.
6. After several iterations of both moblie OS's and PC OS's, I still can not get music to "sync" without issues. It took me DAYS to get 4GB of music synced as I had to keep reconnecting. Every 40-50 songs. This had been a problem for me since WinMo 2003 and XP, and is still problematic with WinMo 6 and Vista. I have never been a big fan of iTunes, but at least it WORKS.
7. This depends on your supplier but for me, the AT&T ROM is chock full of useless programs and lacks most of the HTC supplied programs that ship with the HTC ROM. After several days trying to essentially get the AT&T ROM to look like the HTC ROM, I gave up and flashed a cooked ROM. It sucks that I had to go through all of this trouble to get the phone set up as I liked it. I feel sorry for people who aren't up to flashing a ROM, because the AT&T ROM is truely an abomination of marketing gack. More than 50% of the programs in the standard custom install are trial version that require you to spend more money for full functionality.
Anyway, I am a bit jaded. Considering I skipped a generation (never had an 8525) I had high expectations that this would be far and away better then my 8125. It is in some respects, but so far I think it has not been worth the effort and cost. Since I had an offboard GPS solution for the 8125, about the only thing that is better on the Tilt is the Bluetooth Stereo and compatibitly with WM6 programs. It's not even that much smaller.
Before you get the 8925/Tilt - screen protector, case, large microSD (they sell up to 8gb now).
As people are saying here, you may want to do the At&t bloatware removal trick. We have 2 Tilts in the house: 1 with, 1 without bloatware. I have the bloatware, and will do the removal trick next time I need to hard boot. Not a single thing on there I need, that I can't find on Xda. The bloatware takes up about 20mb of space! The other Tilt is running great sans bloatware.
Essential programs to offset some bugginess:
- KaiserTweaks (freeware).
- BandSwitch (free or pay versions) if you have 3G in your area.
- Conduits PocketPlayer 3.5X (sound is much better to me).
Utilities:
- DinarSoft MemMaid (not free), but it has so many functions all in one: It will help with Notifications/Alarms, it is a Registry Editor, you can reformat your microSd card with it (to name a few).
- Chi-Tai Dang BatteryStatus Today Plugin (free or pay versions). Will show battery, memory, card memory, cpu usage, phone minutes/data/texting...
- Spb Mobile Shell (not free).
Programs:
- Microsoft Live Search (freeware).
- ReenSoft PiePlus (not free).
I'm using Hyperdragon III and I also have OneNote 2007 but I can't manage to sync OneNote with OneNote 2007. I checked the OneNote box in the Active Sync options; I also uninstalled both programs and reinstalled again but to no avail. I can't get them to sync.
Is there another way?
PS. I don't know if this is relevant but I have Outlook 2003, which is synced perfectly with my phone. I don't know if the different versions are the problem or not.
Yes, kind of..
I have 'syncronized' OneNote Mobile successfully with OneNote 2007
However OneNote does not syncronize the whole database, only a section called 'Notes from <Mobile Device Name>, which is created when you set up the 'syncronization'. This was a big disappointment to me as I of course wanted all my notes on the phone for easy lookup on the road...
You need OneNote 2007 on your PC to get the sync to work.
With OneNote2003 you can only Sync PPC Notes into OneNote on your PC.

Thanks guys.
torefor, did you have any problems with the sync process?
Man -- I was excited to see that OneNote mobile came with my Kaiser when it got back from HTC for a motherboard replacement...
... but now I see that OneNote dedktop doesn't come with my 2007 Office Pro suite -- I'd have to but it seperately for $99
Oh well -- maybe I'll try the demo version and see if I think its worth it...

Really? Is there not a ONOTE or OneNote MSI with all the other MSI's for Office?
There is one with the package at my work, you just can't do it as part of the office install.

Man -- I see I was not able to spell when I typed my earlier message
Anyway, it's official -- onenote does not come with the Office Pro suite.
It does come with Enterprise, however, which is probably what you have at work.
Update: yay, it looks like I can get it through Microsoft's Work At Home program, and my work also uses the Enterprise Suite!

Onenote comes only with the base "Home and Student," the "Ultimate," which despite it's name does NOT have all Office features, and the "Enterprise" edition.

I'm amazed MS has had so much trouble selling this, as I think it's the best software MS has ever put out. Three months ago I was so fed up with MS that I decided to abandon them entirely and move to linux....well, there is NO good replacement for onenote and so I (very begrudgingly) returned. And yes, I did try running an XP VM to run onenote: this is a most unsatisfactory solution. Congrats MS, you lock-in worked in this case. (bastards)
I used onenote on my cell, laptop, desktop and work desktop, and it all syncs fine. Granted I have teh Enterprise edition so that might be the reasons everything worked out the box for me. It is true you need Onenote on the desktop to take advantage of it. To one of the earlier comments about where onenote on the desktop stores the imported notes, you can change that in under tools i believe.
My notes go to the right notebook, but from there i have to manually sort them out to the correct section.
look up some GTD with Onenote articles and it will explain how to set everything... The settings for the phone notes are the same as the settings for sidenotes...
i hope that all made sense...
btw just a little side note... I have a tablet PC so Onenote rocks with a digitizer pen, and being able to search my hand writing etc... So if you own a tablet PC, Onenote is a MUST HAVE APP
if you dont have a tablet PC, i really dont see a need for Onenote other than how it organizes pages etc...
btw OneNote & Groove work awesome together (aslong as your on a 32bit OS since groove doesnt work on 64bit)
HTC TyTN II (windows mobile 6 pro) i cant get any other keyboard software to work, i have tried all and the only 1 to work is resco pro, i can see the keyboard and set the settings but when i come to switching or using it it just uses the default boring keyboard, any 1 else had this sort of problem and if any1 could help i would be over the moon. oh all other software installs and work 100%
baffled.

4.0.0.103 works
Hi
Version 4.0.0.103 works well on TYTN II / WM 6.1 / Orange + BIS/BES
Available at sems / google the page "Blackberry Connect 4.0 Downloads (Windows Mobile)"
Btw interested in feed backs on more recent versions (104-106)
I've had a search here already and could not find an answer, so ...
Is there anyway to directly sync (in both directions) a Windows Phone 8 mobile with MS Outlook (no exchange server) on a PC ?
I've been using my Outlook on my PC as a central point of control since I moved from my SE T68i/Palm Tungsten T2 combination to a SE P900, so over a decade now, and have no intentions to change (plus I, for various reasons, have no desire to dump my personal data in 'The Cloud').
I was able to do this with my old WinMobile 5 and 6 phones (through Activesync ?) and then my android phones (through MyPhoneExplorer on my Nexus 4 and on my older Desire Z when HTC dropped the ball on the Gingerbread upgrade), but I know yo could not do so with Win Phone 7.
Note if it's manufacturer specific (as it is with Android) then it's the Nokia Lumia 1020 that's tempting me with it's compact camera sensor (or is it a compact camera with a phone module included ....).
If it's not possible to do it with manufacturer/Windows software, then are there third party applications out there (such as MyPhoneExplorer) ?

I'm going to check later but this question has been asked before, an I'm fairly sure it was almost exactly the same question, I also have a feeling it was asked in wp7 as well ages ago. H
No is the answer, an the my phone explore option you talk about for android, by your own admission, doesn't work correctly either.
I know change seems a pain in the arse, but if you want full out look sync then your going to have to go back to something like the HTC HD2 and use wm 6
My friend, an in sure it was you I spoke to before about wp7, this is never going to change, you can have it with wm6, you can have a bodged version with android, but wp has left that (admitted fairly useful) feature behind, the cloud is the future, like it or not.
