Those of you with a 750 on the ATT/Cingular network with the new WM6 please post your experiences with 3rd party software (what works, what doesn't).
After reading the current WM6 threads it is obvious that there is a big difference on how well WM6 works across the different carriers and brandings. So I would like to limit this thread to ATT/Cingular (hopefully others will start threads for different carriers). I think the biggest barrier to most of us in upgrading is whether the hundreds of dollars of 3rd party software we had on WM5 will still work on WM6.
I am especially interested to see people's reviews on spb apps, wizbar, smallmenu, Handy Switcher, MemMaid, Mortscript, TomTom 6, SlingPlayer, Goodlink/GMM, AEbutton Plus or other button mappers.

Those of you that are getting TomTom6 to work, what kind of GPS receiver do you have? And is it connecting each time you start TT6?

i'm using a Holux GPSlim 240 - TT6 works perfectly, it connects each time I start and navigates fine.
I cannot seem to get my "ebay-purchased" bluetooth GPS receiver to work with TT6 anymore. It worked fine when it was still on WM5 but even though i CAN connect to the GPS receiver when adding it manually, TT6 doesn't recognise it whatsoever.
i MIGHT have forgotten to do some settings, so if someone else does have a bluetooth GPS receiver please help me out! i need to navigate a lot to get to client's offices for my work and i cannot live without TT6!!
Just to make sure, did you set the 'outgoing port' in the bluetooth settings to match what TT6 uses?
Blackberry Connect 4 on WM6 rom ?
Hi
Has anyone had any success with Blackberry Connect 4 on the WM6 Rom ? I was trying over and over unsuccessfully on my 750c and I had the same symptoms as on WM5: Network Available -> Suspended by user, no IP address, no PIN (shows Pending)
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks,
HC

yes i have... i dont remember this... but do i need to check the Serial Port service in the Partnership Settings? and do i need to set up anything in the External GPS (Start -> Settings -> External GPS) for it to work?
i got a feeling i got my TT6 to work with my GPS by fluke when i was using WM5 which is why i'm having trouble now... i will try again tonight and see how it goes. Thanks!
hey all, does anyone know if there's software out there to track data usage?
searched around but haven't had much luck
thanks

I'm using SPB GPRS Monitor. Works great. Ofcourse works for 3G too.

thanks for the info guys. batterystatus doesn't seem to be working properly- doesn't update any data usage though sms is fine. anyone shed some light on that.
lcminutes isn't very user friendlyand spb isn't freeware. lol
is there anything else ?
batterystatus doesn't update data info anyone found that issue? sms is fine tho.
any other apps out there?
thanks guys
update: oops double post
I ve used this program to. Works ok and keeps diagrams of my GPRS data counter but sorry. It doesnt count any 3G data...
Running a custom setting
My retail Diamond came with the full version of spb gprs monitor on an official CD inside the box. It was originally a ME diamond (now flashed to a European ROM). Maybe certain regions don't include it. Its a good piece of software that I used on my last PDA aswell.
Batterystatus works fine for me. In the options, you need to enable the data counting and select which connections to monitor.
It also needs to be running at all times to monitor. As it's a today plugin, this is only possible if you've got secondtoday running.
I find the best thing to do is use secondtoday with batterystatus on the second home screen, and set secondtoday to auto start when the device does (this way it will always be running)
Hi there.
I'm new to the Kaiser and to Window Mobile. Running WM6.5.
Is there a data counter I can use, so I can keep track of how much GPRS I'm using? Thanks.
Google SPB Wireless Monitor.

Thanks. Looks great, but surely there's a free tool that's less fancy?
spb gprs monitor came with the instalation CD of my kaiser, when I install it it was already registered. maybe should check the CD's that came with your phone.
good luck.
The SPB GPRS monitor that comes with Kaiser is older than SPB Wireless Monitor, but it works too.
Thank you.
please anyone can tell me a good and simple gprs traffic monitor free, that works in wm6.1

Spb wireless monitor

spb gprs monitor
searched for SPB wireless monitor (for free) but all I could find is SPB GPRS monitor. Might this be the same thing? (yes, I know, GPRS!=WiFi)Will search further anyway.
cut that, found spb wireless monitor. Interested?
where?...please
Hi!
I installed SPB Wireless Monitor on my HTC Touch Pro EnergyROM WM6.5 and I found that TouchFlo is sending/receiving some data daily. Do you know how to turn it off? I would like to have full control on which apps connects to Internet and which don't.
I have a Email & Weather function disabled, so it's definately not causing that data transfer.
Please help!!!
Regards,
maczkus

Where to find some?
I've just found one in EnergyROM - Internet -> Disable. But I can't understand why there's no such option in TouchFLO. Why does it connect to Internet without any notice?
Disabling automatic weather update is not enough. In the new EnergyRom there is an additional option called: Show weather in my location (or sth like that). AFAIK, it requires connection with some external services. Try to disable this stuff.
Is SPB wireless monitor the best data tracker out there? any other recommendations? anyone use batterystatus to track data?
