Ultimate Theft Alert v3

Hi guys,
I would like you all to take a look at the program Ultimate Theft Alert v3 (http://www.pocketpc-live.com/ultimate-theft-alert-v3-for-pocket-pcs-2.html).
This program is an anti-theft program for your WM5 Device.
I was one of the 1st users of it and since then it made much improvement and has some real cool feautures (the developer is someone that actually listens to his customers!).
When a new (unregistred in the program) SIM Card is entered in your device the program sends 2 Text Messages to a predifined number (you can add more numbers). One text message has a predifined message (that you can adjust in the program) and the 2nd text message sends the IMSI number of the SIM Card to your device.
The program has 2 extra plug-ins for now:
1) Doing a hard-reset after inserting a non-registred SIM Card
2) Copy all the SIM Cards contacts to the predifined number(s)
This program is in my opinion the most perfect anti theft alert for your device!!
Just check it out....
Regards,
Molski
p.s. UTA v3 only costs $12,99 ....in my opinion very cheap for a $400 device

Damm - Wish I'd seen this a week or two ago!
This sucks.
My phone was stolen 2 days ago by some loser, and all my data, hacks, tweaks, and software on it has to be reinstalled (of course) . What really P's me off though, is that I have no clue who took it, and I'd really like to be able to get back at the jerk for stealing it. Sigh. Well, I have my new replacement (Cingular shipped it FedEx yesterday and it arrived today), so I have to get busy w/ it and getting it set up. Thankfully, it is a G3, like my old phone.

Then you sure can imagine how important software like this can be!
I'm glad you got a replacement Wizard (and also am glad because it's a G3 ).
I like UTA a lot and build my own cab for it and included it in my ExtRom, so after a hard-reset it's installed automatically

i have ultimate protect on my phone. and i like. its pretty good.

How did it get stolen? If you don't mind me asking?

Im curious... What would you be able to do with the information from the program in the event that your PDA is stolen??? What are the chances of getting it back???

Revenge?
If the program uses the new SIM to send SMS to a number you specified, and passes any phone numbers held in that SIM as part of the mesage content, then you have the phone number of the thief and all his contacts!
You could call him up and ask for your phone back.
You could call all his contacts and ask them to persuade him to give your phone back.
You also get the IMSI number of the SIM card. This is what network operators use to block stolen phones. You may be able to persuade the operator to block the thief's SIM.

Few problems I noticed
1) I can't delete a SIM card Number from the list.
2) Except for the Hard Reset Option under EXTRAS, everything else is greyed out including "Send SIM Contacts and CALL LOG Details"
3) I know how to add this to the Ext. ROM but do I add the UTA.exe file under Windows to it or the Installation CAB. Also where is the DATA file located, the one that holds the SIM card entries and the Alert SMS Numbers?

this program has an option for you to install into ext rom?
cuz it states it can survive a hard reset.
thanks!

Guys, how do you add it to the EXT rom? please assist.

on WM6 (schaps 3.30c german) UTA 3 pops up an error when inserting an unregistered simcard. "systemeigene ausnahme...." somekind of exception error. The sms is beeing sent - but the thief would see the errormessage.
Any suggestions?

Uninstalling
To all the techies,
Could anyone please let me know how to uninstall the ultimate theft alert as i want to format my storage card. If I format it will there be any stray files left on my device memory and if yes then could it confict with the phone.
Thanks
TK

that is an amazing idea i will be checking it out that seems very smart and im willing to bet with my silly brain i will misplace my wizard for sure haha

Good morning, I've found this tutorial on their forum:
> http://pocketpc-live.com/help-and-support/1461-extended-rom-installation-v35.html
"Extended ROM Installation [v35!]
If you would like to know what's Extended ROM, read my article here.
Please note that Extended ROM installation is not possible on all devices. Different devices use a different Autorun Method. Autorun is sometimes a small application that tells the device what softwares need to be installed in what order automatically after a hard-reset. Some have a feature of copying files whereas the others stimulate cab files to be installed.
Before you proceed, its advised to know what are the files and in what locations should they be for the software to work.
In Windows folder:
UTAv35.exe - Core Module
Tapilib.dll - Resource Library File
Uta_confige.dll - Configurations File
Rdui.dat - Registration File
VbLocation.dll - Resource Library File
Uta_adn2.0.exe - Core Add-on Module
In Windows/StartUp folder:
UTAv35.lnk - Shortcut to core module
The above files when in place, the software will work as registered/activated and with configurations! Depending upon your device, you need to make these files available in place, either via custom cab file created with third-party softwares such as WinCE Cab Manager or via Direct Copy file method from Extended ROM after Unlocking it!
In some devices, the stupid signing security warning appears, preventing to start the application directly. In that case, additionally you need install this file http://www.PocketPC-Live.com/ds.cab Through Extended ROM installation in the first place.
Good news for forum users: If you have your posts count over 50, we shall help you make the custom cab file ourselves Happy participating... Even if your post count is below 50, don't worry, we will always try helping you with your queries here. Just reply to this topic and we shall be glad to assist you further.

Is it possible...

I may be shooting myself in the foot for asking this, but is there a way to transfer programs/Apps from one PPC (iPAQ 4355) to another (HTC Kaiser) without having the .exe files?
There are a few on my old PPC that I still like to use, but don't want to have to re-buy again.

For most, there's no need to buy again. Download the installer, pump in your serial number, and it'll run just fine. The only exception to this I can think of on my phone is Voice Command, which does require the licensed installer app.

Care to elaborate? How do I go about getting the downloader? Some of these apps I have had for a while, so it would be hard (if not impossible) to get the serial #'s
Thanks

If the version hasn't changed, it's pretty much hit the manufacturer's web page, download, and run.
The serial numbers would be your issue, though. If you don't have those and your app doesn't display it in "Help-About," the registration page, or some place similar, you'd need to have it archived somewhere. I'm an e-mail packrat so I've got mine going back years. Some manufacturers will e-mail you your serial numbers if you ask support, though. Recovery from hard resets or replacement phones.
If you can't find them somehow, you have to figure out what directories and registry hives to backup, back them up, move them over, and hope that it works.

I read somewhere of a program to move all softwares from one device to another without installing, but i didn't downloaded it then. Now I dont even remember the name for it. Sorry. But you try searching it, if u get it pls let us know. I'll do the same. Thanx.

Can we include SPRITE TERMINATOR in ROM

Hi,
I think most of you are aware of the Sprite Terminator software ( its sends you a SMS of New SIM # and GPS co-ordinates incase of SIM Change - infact its software for protection )..
Now the question is - Can we include this software in ROM ??? incase if you lost the set and the other person even HARD RESET the device.... so we still remain be able to get the info about the new SIM and GPS location ?
Any Idea....

So, I presume its not possible... And we can not include software in ROM ???

Sprite Terminator is not freeware, and you would likely be violating the EULA by bundling it with these ROMs.

What about the open source utility mJustice (Mobile Justice) instead?

Well I have a legal copy of SPRITE TERMINATOR and i want to include it into ROM for my TYTN II device just to make it 100% anti theft SO that the theif can't get rid of it even after the Hard Reset.... All i am asking that HOW SHOULD I PROCEED ?

Doesn't seem feasible...
Even when MJ could be cooked in ROM, settings (allowed SIM's, phone number to which messages should be sent, etc.), would be lost after a soft reset. I'd say the only possible solution would be cooking your own ROM (including all the settings, of course).
Just my 2 cents

Alex has this tutorial to convert a cab to a oem package...cook it in yourself.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=OEM Package Tutorial
I never tried it, so I probably can't help you much with this.

Hi everyone, here is a package for Sprite Terminator 1.2. Use with KaiserKitchen or RaphaelKitchen. Because some settings are personalised (your parnered phone numbers and password etc), you will need to edit 6113774c-bec5-432d-983f-fe230b6f2228.rgu (file is inside attached st.zip) with your own settings. Anything in there with ****** you need to replace with your own personalised settings. To get your personalised settings, first install your purchased copy of Sprite Terminator and configure it.
Buy from www.spritesoftware.co.nz
Then open your registry and copy the config you found into 6113774c-bec5-432d-983f-fe230b6f2228.rgu.
Preserve the format in 6113774c-bec5-432d-983f-fe230b6f2228.rgu and just replace the **** entries with your own!
Don't forget to:
1. Ensure that there is blank line at the end of the text file
2. Wordwrap is OFF!
3. Save the file as unicode
4. Run the kitchen and cook!
This has been tried and tested!!

Unless you posted a package that requires a S/N to be entered prior to use, then I STRONGLY SUGGEST you take it down. This is considered warez, and the Mods will come down on you hard for it.

Good Point The Package Will be taken down, not because it has a serial, which it hasn't.
But because it is unclear at the moment, allows for the software to be redistributed and hosted on our servers.
The intention of the package is good but this has to be looked at more closely.
Thanks for your consideration.
Attached is the same package but without the resource files:
SGAgent.dll
SGStartup.exe
Sprite Terminator.exe
SpriteGuardResources.dll
SpriteTerminator.htm
This package should still explain how to add a Legal packaged to a ROM that is cooked for Private use in combination with the Legally owned License. (See Post# 8 )

going one step further ...
good idea guys, but i'd suggest not adding the uninstall information, nor adding a program shortcut - this might give you needed time to locate your device. i guess even the most stupid must get worried if it reads "Sprite Terminator" in programs list, why should we confuse people ;-)
greetz peet

the most you need to include terminator into rom is the registry file (rgu) settings and it would be a good idea to remove the shortcut made in startmenu folder, so a thief does not get warned before action has taken place

Remote Tracker is similar to Sprite Terminator but MUCH better. It has all kinds of features that Sprite Terminator does not (ftp, remote wipe, remote execution of mort script commands, etc). Best of all, it is freeware, and even has an OEM made for cooking into ROMS. Check it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394203

Why are you in 2 separate threads asking them to be closed as duplicates? And even worse, neither thread is actually a duplicate.
Yes, Remote Tracker has its own thread, but this thread is about cooking Sprite Terminator into a ROM. There is ONE post in this thread about Remote Tracker, and all it is doing is informing people of its exististence, not discussing it.
This is NOT a duplicate.

Seems the new desire hd has this or a very similar feature

Totally worth bringing up a year old thread.

iSkoot for Skype

I wonder if anyone can help me locate iSkoot for skype as its unavailable in the market place in the UK
Be really grateful for any advice or direction.

I got mine from the marketplace, you might try this...
http://www.iskoot.com/register.php?device=NoDevice
--M

ANy Screen shoot will be appreciated
iSkoot is a JAVA based Software or Native Android Application

Make sure you really need iskoot. It uses plan minutes by redirecting through a local phone number (ie, it uses your minute bucket). It's not the VOIP app that people think it is. It's a decent workaround for people with lots of minutes who use skype contacts regularly, though.
The local number thing may be why it wasn't included in the non-US marketplace, as it might not be configured for the UK yet. Stringing together hearsay from other forums, so I may be wrong.

I personally want iSkoot to be able to chat to my Skype contacts rather than call them.
So can anyone provide .apk for it? As it seems there's no way to get it for UK users.

Impossible to find
I tryied over the internet and even in my Android Market I cannot find iSkoot. Can someone please upload the native app for android?

An FYI, but I'm a UK T-Mobile customer currently in the US on an extended vacation.
I bought an unlocked US G1 on Ebay and put my UK T-Mobile SIM in it. Everything worked fine, except I too could not see iSkoot in the marketplace. I'm not data roaming, so I've been accessing the internet over WiFi.
When I got the phone, it came with a US T-Mobile SIM - I put this in the phone and even though the SIM is not connected to a plan, I could then see and download iSkoot from Marketplace over WiFi. In addition, when I replaced the UK SIM in the device and tried to use iSkoot, it worked - it even tried to dial a UK access number which is how I guess iSkoot uses plan minutes.
Therefore, it seems likely that Marketplace can "detect" your region from your SIM card and apply restrictions based on that.
I suggest that getting hold of one of these:
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Phones/Detail.aspx?class=prepaid&device=53299206-c069-429a-82fa-000007a2ac12
Might allow non-US users to have less restricted access to the Marketplace over WiFi.
Regards,
Dave

Looks like it's free software, that requires registration to work, so i don't see the harm in uploading the files. If someone knows of it being against the wishes of the software developer then just PM me. Thanks for checking.

can't sign in
does anyone else (in the US) have this problem?
i'm getting:
ERROR
You're already signed on in a different mobile device
i'm obviously not - anyone else saw this?
thanks,
E.

Try to push several time space on your keyboard during the signing.
Anyone can help me to change inside the apk file the defaultSkypeHost=http://gw1.iskoot.com into defaultSkypeHost=http://skype.tre.it/p-iskoot ?
In this way i can use the Xseries minutes included in my H3g plan....
Thx for any help.

I'm looking to do the same when I get the time.
I think I found the line you're looking for in the res\raw\startup.properties file of the apk
You can view or extract the apk file using winrar or z-zip.
I used Microsoft office to view the file so I guess you could edit it.
You might have to resign the apk if you're successful with the editing it so check out the following thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503007
Let me know how it goes?

Update:
Haven't yet tested to see if iskoot is using my 6000 free skype mins or not but my mod and install seemed to work. Give it a go and let me know if it works for you.
Steps:
Download the iskoot.apk from xda-dev
use winrar or 7-zip to extract the contents
use microsoft office word to edit the res\raw\startup.properties file of the apk
to replace the existing strings from
defaultSkypeHost=http://gw1.iskoot.com
backupHost=isk-bos-app2.iskoot.com
baseUrl=isk-bos-app2.iskoot.com
to the relevant ones, which can be found here
http://pastebin.com/f483b9120
for uk I amended them to
defaultSkypeHost=http://mobile.three.co.uk/948
backupHost=http://mobile.three.co.uk/948
baseUrl=http://mobile.three.co.uk/948
save as the original filetype if asked/prompted
Open the orginal iskoot.apk (not the extracted one) and delete the original startup.properties file then drop the modified one into its place
Delete the META-INF folder from the iskoot.apk before closing and saving
Download the autosign app from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503007 and extract it
place your customised iskoot.apk into the auto-sign folder and run the .bat file. If you run into problems it might be because you have to change your windows folder options and untick "hide extensions for known filetypes" in the view tab (in windows xp). Then you can rename the file from .zip to .apk and the signing process should work.
Transfer the file to your Magic or G1 and install (I used astro filemanager and made sure I allowed the install non-market applications option)
I entered my skype settings into the phone and rebooted for good measure. Note it doesn't work over wifi so make sure that's off.
Test call worked a treat and a look at the call log showed an outgoing local number was used.
Just need to check my monthly bill now!?

I tried to change res\raw\startup.properties file of the apk but when i make a call trough iskoot i see that the number called is not the Xseries number but the generical iskoot local number for my nation.
I don't know if this happen because I first installed a normal iskott version then I uninstalled it and reinstalled the modified version.
Any other feedback?
Thx in advance.

Nice
I was one of few beta testers of this kind of app (made by Skype genuinely) for S40 phones (I had SE K750i) and it is very useful if you do not have an endless data plan want to get a hold on someone outside your country. Even if he/she is not in skype and is using an ordinary cellphone it still comes cheaper I think (the local call fee+skypeout credit)

I can confirm that doing this hack in the UK, does not make iskoot use the x-series number. I have been charged for my skype-to-skype calls.

Upon further investigation I have determined that it is dialing the wrong number. The number dialed was 442070431521, whereas the number that should be dialed is 447838333878. I cannot, however, find a way to make iskoot dial the desired number. Any thoughts?

don't have a dream but on my italian diamond i just changed the registry
CallNumber= ...........
with the number it's ment to call...so in my case +393933934446

Hi,
I'm wondering if I have the right number. You wouldn't happen to know where to look for these numbers, would you?

Where can I find .XAP decompiler for phone 8 ?

I've been searching for .XAP decompiler/disAssembler (to do reverse engineer) for phone 8 xap files. I've seen that the new .xap files are not longer simple .zip/.rar files. They have something more.
In short I'm asking something similar to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443692 for phone 8 . Does anyone know any (free) tool which can help me out ?

Could you please attache XAP? I'll investigate it.

Sure
Please see the attachment.

It appears MS have encrypted XAPs now - this has a PlayReady DRM header:
Code:
<WRMHEADER xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/DRM/2007/03/PlayReadyHeader" version="4.0.0.0"><DATA><PROTECTINFO><KEYLEN>16</KEYLEN><ALGID>AESCTR</ALGID></PROTECTINFO><KID>w3i0edJP7EOqQ6aQzdAoSQ==</KID><LA_URL>http://microsoft.com/</LA_URL><CUSTOMATTRIBUTES xmlns=""><S>9FcV5qmfIsMc+X2MVmX3Hw==</S><KGV>0</KGV></CUSTOMATTRIBUTES><CHECKSUM>Hu3+fizBvKU=</CHECKSUM></DATA></WRMHEADER>

So, does it mean I'll never be able to decompile any .xap ?

XAPs downloaded from the Marketplace are encrypted starting sometime in summer last year. That was also the time when devices that had not installed the WP7.5 update lost access to the Marketplace.
So unless you know the decryption key no: you won't be able to decompile XAP files downloaded from the Marketplace. As for XAPs you get from a Dev directly or created yourself - those should still be in the same ZIP-Format as before.

if we get admin access on the phone we can make the phone to decompile it for us and then make an unencrypted version of the .xap

And how can I get admin permission on my phone win 8 phone ? In other words, is it possible to get admin permission on win 8 mobile ?

@shek007
WP8 is much more secure than WP7. So it will take much time or never to hack the OS.
Regarding the xap decompile, it seems you are insisting on 'hacking'. That is a bad behaviour, trying to steal other's logic/data If it's your's or friend's .xap, then you'll get access to the code. Otherwise you have no right to decompile the code if it's not yours or the others didn't provide you access.
Anyway, you got the answer back then: no, it won't work.

1. No one knows what "win 8 phone" and "win 8 mobile" are. Never heard of those.
2. Go somewhere else to discuss theft.

narrowing the subject to "theft" is not appropriate as when one wants to make out the most of some applications.
Examples are: Decompile the Field Test app from nokia to see the internal API calls to the radio module in order to obtain RF related data, such as cell ID, MCC+MNC, Ec/Lo etc..
using this API calls we can make Apps for RF field engineers to test the network performance and signal levels using the Lumia phone.
This functionality is well known on others smartphones but lacking in Windows Phone platform so far.
Another example will be using multiple whatsapp accounts in the same phone ( another functionality from other mobile platform missing in WP)

As far as I understood the security architecture not just any App would be able to access those APIs even if it knew about them. It requires special permissions and I would guess that at the moment those are not available with a regular Developer Unlock.
As for decrypting the file or gaining access to the phone and extracting the data from there: WP8 security has not yet been broken. There might be people working on it but for now we know of no way to do it.

That is why YOU are on this forum thread., because is called just like that. "Windows Phone 8" looks similar to windows 8 phone. Or not.

Your post added nothing of value and effectively constitutes spam, as it brings a thoroughly outdated thread to the top of the forum list. It's much better to create a new thread (linking the old one, if you feel that will help) as then people who read earlier posts in the thread but don't notice the datestamps won't be seeing stuff that is years out of date.
While I agree that the person you responded to was being needlessly pedantic, it does seriously annoy some members of the community to have people screw up the name of the OS. Win8 and WP8 have about as much in common as Mac OS X and iOS; that doesn't mean it's reasonable to say an iPhone runs "Phone OS X". The fact that there existed a legacy (and *very* different) OS called Windows Mobile (or WinMo), and that people routinely seem to think that WP is just the continuation of WinMo (it's really, really not), is a large part of why some folks stomp on people who use the wrong name for the OS.
Decompiling apps is easy. Breaking PlayReady DRM is really, really hard. There's no decompiler anywhere I know of that can take a DRMed XAP and decompile it. You'll have to get the app without DRM encryption if you want to decompile it.
PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY MORE IN THIS THREAD!
