PocketPC Installer Professional
We've been using PocketPC Installer for many months now, and find it's a lifesaver.
They've recently released PocketPC Installer Professional (free to all existing users?) which adds a funkier UI and Smartphone/WinCE compatibility.
It's also got a much better desktop installer interface. When our desktop-based installer files now deploy to a device, they can actually look to see which .cab files are already installed and - crucially - which version of .Net CF is already installed on the device. It'll then only copy our version of the .cab and install it if it's more up-to-date. This saves a huge amount of time when we're deploying our set of .cab/data files to numerous devices.

It also creates a PDA installer file, so for our mobile users, we can just put this installer file on a memory card and let them install everything themselves, simply by inserting the card into their device. And you have no idea how many support calls this has saved (why can't salesmen learn how to install .cab files on devices that they're meant to be demonstrating on, day after day ?!
All in all, the $75 pricetag has paid for itself many times over.

Hi All,
Been kinda scarce around here lately, since I was checking in today to see what's happening i thought I would share some stuff I put together. The tsk is based off a wallpaper I found at deviant art I think it was from Ken Saunders from mouserunner, The images in the icons i just picked up off the web and tweaked them to suit my needs.
I know everybody is going to manilla 2d but personally I'm going to wait till all the bugs are worked out by the genius's around here before i switch.
Enjoy

What's the name of the program that's at the very bottom of your phone. I like it. It looks like a continuation of the HTC home plugin.
Do you know if you can customize those shortcuts or anything of the sort?
its battery status (now home screen plus plus ), and yes you can pretty much do anything with it if you can set up an xml file.
can these be loaded with HHC (HTC Home Customizer)?
sure, just drop the file in the correct folders in program files, htc home customizer, and then choose whatever you would like.
OK, thanks.
btw i get an app execution error about a missing file from HHV V1.0Final so I will have to revert to 0.8 i guess
hmmm, I have v1.0 and it seems to work just fine on my device, I actually copied the files right off my phone , zipped em up and posted , let me know if there is anymore trouble.
great stuff, thanks
could you remind me of the name of the lower icon bar today plugin ?
thanks,
battery status/ homee screen plus plus, your welcome im glad you like it

use htc home customizer, I tried to upload it but somethings not working, you'll find it if you do a search.Install it then find the files folder in the program and drop the icons in the icon folder, you can then open up hhc and choose the icons. Hope that helps

Anyone try out the new Live Mesh yet? I just read about a few days back, so don't know how "new" it is, but it's still in beta.
But, after trying it, it is f'n sweet!!!
It's a web server, similar to Live Workspace, but you can upload any file you like. If you don't know what Live Workspace is, it's a web server used to exchange, edit, and upload Office documents.
With Mesh, you can upload anything you would like from your computer, then sync your device with the MOBILE APPLICATION !
You can upload from your device as well, and check them out later on your desktop. Not to mention, any files you load up from your desktop, that are synced to your device automatically get stored to your SD Card, which is kind of a downside, but it beats main memory.
Anyways, I've found it to be pretty cool, since I can quickly sync any file of my choice, from any computer, and have it on my Touch in a few seconds without cables or e-mail. All I have to do is login and upload, and I believe it's similar to Workspace in the sense you can share the "Desktop."
Check it yourself, it's of course FREE!
www.mesh.com
I have to throw in an update here! I link my Pictures folder, where photos from my camera are stored, I took two quick pics, and after just closing the camera and opening Mesh, they were starting to sync! I forgot to mention it's syncs like Windows Live, you can set manual, auto every xx minutes, or as your local folders are updated.
Needs to be running to sync, at least for the "push" type option, don't plan on trying the auto sync at all. Sits in memory @ 951kb.
It says Mobile Coming Soon. You have it working?
?Its work, already. but you need to have the sqlce 3.1 not the 2.0, or 3.0 or 3.5. specific 3.1, something almost no one have. ..
Yu can download to instal the sql 3.1, BUT change a system library just because one software.. NOOOOO
LOL!

You'll see the link to download the .cab file.
downloaded the "fixed" cab from that blog, still getting a dependency error on install.
Can't wait for this service though. Very cool.
So, I got impatient with the plain, boring icons in the newer 6.5 builds and I put together some DLL's that are compatible with 23060.
Here's the screenshot:

}
Obviously, I've stolen from all over the place (tsowen and others) and I've also made some personal taste alterations. Hope you like my choices.
FYI, if you're on 23060 and you're using the Windows dialer, like I am, your Bluetooth icon won't show up. That's a problem in the current Windows build. Also, I haven't been able to pull out the notify.dll.0409.mui so I can fix the alarm notification icon. (Anyone care to help?) But other than those two caveats, every icon I use seems to be covered here.
Just open the attached Zip and dump the files in your Windows directory. I did this by simply connecting to ActiveSync and browsing the folder on my desktop. Say yes to the overwrite and soft reset.
As usual, no guarantees that your device will survive this. Use at your own risk.
I put these on NRG's Sense 2.5 ROM on my Tilt 2 and they look to work fine.
Here's an updated version.
This is confirmed to work with Energy's ROM from 9/29/2010. (21680)
I included the bluetooth masks in the ZIP, so you can have the snazzy Bluetooth icon as well.
Just unzip everything here into your Windows folder and do an overwrite followed by a soft reset.
Be advised that mucking around with the notify.dll file can cause new these WM builds to not connect to ActiveSync or to suddenly fail to install Cabs. I had to hard reset to figure out that notify.dll was the reason no Cabs would install. So, I left it out of my package. Everything else seems harmless enough.
To get rid of any of these components, just navigate to it via Total Commander, do a rename and the original version attached to your ROM will take it's place after a soft reset.
I take no credit for this, I'm just spreading the love.

Where are you supposed to find the IP of the device?
Just for Windows I see but that's cool I'm going to put it on my girls computer to helP her do some stuff more easily. I wish I knew how to break down components that make up .exe's and recompile them for LINUX.that is along the lines of the types of fun stuff I'm striving to learn in my LINUX journey.

I'd like to know what ip you want too... because it definitely didn't want the LAN address of my phone.
The UI is deceptive. You don't need to click the connect to button (and I'm not sure it even works properly). Just click on the Android (like you would when you setup the phone) and it will extend the UI and open up the options. They work and they are pretty useful. I think if the guy wrote up a nice little how to I'd probably kick him a few bucks.
!!!
This is actually a phenomenal package, and works great w/ the Bionic. Thank you for posting this, didn't expect this in the dev section and glad I found it.

Hey there guys, I'm writing in the off topic section about this e-cigarette I've just got, it's called Joyetech Ocular C and it comes with a color touch screen , music player and photo viewer capabilities , bluetooth conectivity, a pedometer to count your steps and from what I understand, it has around 2Gb of memory , it is firmware upgradeable and I'm wondering if there is more that can be done to it in therms of functionality.
It's true that vapers, the people who smoke e-cigarettes as their called, dont really need any of this functionality in their devices since they mainly use them purely for smoking, it's nice however to have something a little extra to go with it.
I've looked online for custom firmwares or methods to customise your firmware for these type of devices, but i've only found info on old devices that come with small monochrome screens and the most you can do is upload logos on to the device.
My interests are on how you can access the root of the system built into these devices since it must have a processor and a file sistem inside, how to edit some of these files , per example, you have the option to upload around 100 pictures and some songs ( the memory on it is 2GB ) but there's no way of deleting them once uploaded, in case your storage gets full.
Also it would be nice if users could implement or extent more functionality in the device, par example it only suports .jpeg files in the photo viewer , .png &/or .gif to use as a screen saver would be nice, more so even video playback capability .
And before I get laffed at for asking so much out of an electronic cigarette, I think that since it does come from the factory with all these functionalities and hardware, it's a shame they dont use it to it's fullest.
So is there anyone having any clues on how to "get inside" these devices and tuning them up ?
I've included the latest firmware I could find for the device as well as the program they offer for you to upload it onto the device. If anybody could crack it opn and take a look inside and see at least what's in there, that would be a start.
