Hi
I'm looking for an app for my phone. The problem is that I want to be able to shutdown my computer (upstairs) from my sofa (downstairs) with my phone.
If the software makes it possible to change tracks in windows media player etc i'll be very happy.
Something like this?
Yes something like that. It says it's for Windows Mobile 5 so I will have to try it tonight. Anyone who knows if it works on wm 6.1?
This is what I whant
...but last time I tried it it was pretty unstable.
Anyone who had a successfull try?

Haven't tried that particular one. But generally WM5 apps will work on WM6 and 6.1 (and probably 6.5 when it's released).
take a look at Salling Clicker. Nice all around utility, and many scripts available in their forums also script to remotely (wifi or bluetooth) control your pc

is there anywhere i could find a comprehensive or even partial list of programs compatible or incompatible with windows mobile 6.1?
i cant seem to get opera mobile or tcpmp or a few others to work... any advice or help would be excellent as well.
I don't know about Opera yet, haven't tested it, but there is a working version of TCPMP for 6.1: Recompiled TCPMP.
doesnt seem to work... idk. its really disappointing and makes me wanna go back to 6.0.
The recompiled version of TCPMP does work with my 6.1.
When I used the other version of TCPMP, it crashed and said something about a "crash.txt".
yeah thats what im getting.....im running 3.03.405.0 WWE.
Don't think TCPMP was ever working on 3.03???
wellll thats not good news..... got a range of which ones it has worked on?
Spftick CardExport II and also WM5Storage They dont work in WM 6.1 ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395312
If have it or intent to run it, please report to the developer to get more attention.
Its a shame though, we dont have USB mass storage emulation anymore in WM 6.1.
havent used or heard of the mass storage app... sounds like something i would be interested in if only it worked for 6.1! im just reaslly disappointed about opera mobile....
Apart from software mentioned above, most software are compatible with 6.1!
thats pretty lame... my favorite things are the only things that dont work haha.
Yupe, me too ... I really like and use CardExport.
Fortunately, Opera Mini and TomTom are working fine
I have been using SecondToday in order to access my Today plugins in addition to using Rhodium Manila. Recently I discovered Manila Today Page, so I no longer need SecondToday for this. I would, however, like to use Rhodium Manila with the MTP, and somehow also use Titanium (also known as CHome), the standard Windows Mobile 6.5 interface.
I was able to do this previously using TFDetacher, however some functionality of Manila was lost (specifically, BT AVRCP). This solution would offer me the ability to use both interfaces as needed, without losing any functionality (hopefully). I have tried to simply add "Windows Default" as the only item in SecondToday, and, while it does show at startup, I can't get back to it after Manila starts (I have a video of this, but no way to post it).
Does anyone have any suggestions, or know of any other software I can use to accomplish this feat?
I would also like to know the answer to this..
I tried setting up secondToday this weekend with no luck..maybe this is a compatibility issue with wm6.5 and secondToday?

I haven't tried it much, but I pretty sure its compatibility issue between tf3d and windows default. Both of these plugins are designed to deactivate\override any other active plugin when they are chosen which doesn't make for good compatibility. I'm sure somewhere there is a way, just hasnt' been found yet that I know of.

Well, at least all my hopes and dreams aren't COMPLETELY crushed, lol.
At one point, I was actually able to use Rhodium Manila, CHome, standard Today, and SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 all at the same time. Actually, I could still do it, but I prefer the HTC Music Player (because I can use BT AVRCP w/it, and it won't become the focused window like WMP), though I like that WMP has a separate volume control.
Well, if there's a way, I'm sure someone will figure it out soon enough. It could even be me, who knows?
I have been trying to figure something like this out myself. I am currently running a stock 6.1, with MS 3.5. I had dcd's 2.27 ROM but was running into a couple problems, mainly DRM doesn't seem to like 6.5 ROMs and battery drain. While I was running 6.5, I never even ran TF3D, but instead just ran Titanium and MS 3.5. However, since I am back with 6.1, am back to running MS 3.5, and TF3d. My setup is running pretty smooth, great data connection and battery life, but I really miss Titanium. If anyone has a cab for it (just the main today screen part), or know of a way I could possibly get that to run that with 6.1, I would be more than willing to play around trying to get it all to work together.
EDIT: Oops, didn't see how old this thread was, sorry >.<
Hello i am new to posting on this site but a long time reader and i have a Xda mini S (wizard).
anyway
i have been looking around the internet because of a crazy idea in my mind.
The idea came to me yesterday after upgrading my rom to WM6.1 then to WM6.5
So am looking at WM6.5 and just am thinking wouldnt it be nice to have Windows Xp on my phone so can be like a portable laptop with calling and texting.
i saw some thing about it for a different pda i think
so was just wondering is it possible to upgrade the rom and install XP on a Xda Mini s.
Doesnt have to be like the Desktop version it can be a mini remake.
as long as its possible to flash it again afterwards if i change my mind about it.
Anyone have any ideas for me ?
An easy way to fix this is via citrix, or via vmware...
well you must be a retard to think xp run on wizard is no such thing runnning xp on a pda close thread please...
@HackWindows
Take a look at windows 98/XP on PDA!!!!!.

Maybe you should think outside the box a little before emphatically saying something isn't possible. Heck, 60 years ago noone thought it possible to carry around a phone withoutwires, or have a computer smaller than the size of a room.
hello,
i wanna say i had win 98.
but.... you have to change resolution with nyditot cause it isn't vga.
and on mine the mouse doesn't work.
just se this lik earlyer said http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362344
.
so goodluck i know it works cause i had it myself.
but as i said no mouse and slow.
just try it is great to see
also watch youtube there are movies about it.
Well, it is impossible to run Windows XP natively, because the architecture of the wizard(or any htc smartphone) differs from the pc architecture.
However, there are 2 ways to "run" xp on your wizard:
1) With an x86 emulator like bochs or qemu; you don't want that because it's even slow on a normal pc, and you still don't have sufficient RAM to run xp.
2) Run xp on a normal pc and use VNC or RDP to control it remotely(so you need a fast internet connection). I believe there an rdp app called "Terminal Services client" on a default wm installation, so I'd go for that one.
If you want to run windows to play games on your pda, I'd advice to forget it, vnc and rdp are not designed for such tasks...
Well, I dig this idea. any one with the know how should be able to port Tablet PC OS into an .nbf file with all the right drivers an stripped of all unnecessary junk ( a minimalist version) . If not a complete os than lookalike may be. May be i am dreaming big but someone should be able to help. I see ppl trying to port Linux/ android on wizard than why not XP?
The Omap processor (which is an ARM processor) isn't powerful enough to Emulate a x86 processor with acceptable speeds and memory to run XP on a wizard (even if XP has been stripped etc..).

Hi guys,
My dad's handed me his Vario III / (Kaiser 120) to use.
I did a reset using the option in 'SETTINGS' to reset it and lose all date. Now, when I start it up, it looks like new and the time/date has to be set. All my dad's contacts have gone. Cool. - 1. Was this a Hard-Reset ?
I went to something like SETTINGS > INFO and got this:
Radio Vers 1.70.18.02
ROM DATE 9/01/08
ROM Vers. 3.31.110.3 WWE
Build 19212.1.03
When I start it up, it says Windows Mobile v6.1
A couple years ago, I loaded tomtom navigator on it for my dad. It was really good with the internal gps.
Anyway, now that I have the phone, I'd like to install tomtom navigator on it, use the camera (maybe 10 photos a week) and upload pics to my PC, and browse the internet (email, twitter etc.) from time to time. Also, I'd use the handset to connect via bluetooth to my laptop so I can use it for internet (in emergencies, as it is kinda slow). I also text (3-5 texts a day)
I also downloaded an app called Shazam.cab from a site called mobilism, which I would love to use as I have seen it on my lucky friend's iPhone and the app is awesome!
2. Apart from the usb cable, and active sync on my pc, do i need anything else to install shazam on my phone/micro sd card?
3. I assume a ROM means operating system? Like windows xp, 7 etc.
I see that people are putting new ROMs on their phone. My phone has
Storage Free Space: 121MB and Programs Free 55MB. There isn't a lot of 'bloatware' hogging up resources on there, as far as i can see.
4. Do I need to install a custom ROM now that you know my uses (in blue font above) for the phone? / do I need to flash it? I.e. will a new ROM/flash make my life a lot easier? Better to convert to android system? Will I need to do any of these things to install shazam?
I was goin to do this on the weekend so I can use other sims in my phone:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
fingers crossed it goes ok.
Can you please help?
Thank you
Sonny
ps. I may need to ask a couple more questions after this. Once again thank you for your help. If anyone needs advice on cameras, please let me know as I am a regular contributor to a photography forum.
1. Yes, it was HARD-Reset (removes all settings, contacts, messages, ...). It doesn't do anything to the MicroSD card.
2. I don't know anything about that. Sorry!
3. Yes, ROM means operating system. There are stock ROMs and modified ROMs. For Kaiser (a.k.a. HTC TyTN II) you'll find only stock Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM and lots of modified WM 6.1 and WM 6.5 ROMs. There's no stock WM 6.5 ROM for Kaiser.
4. Android is not stable enough. Sometimes it crashes, doesn't wake up and so on... All your mentioned things can be done with both WM 6.1 and 6.5, so it's for you to decide what to use. WM 6.1 looks a little bit old and terrible, but it uses less resources than WM 6.5 which looks a little bit... like system that was made to be similar to iPhone OS. Yes, WM 6.5 is more finger-friendly, but the applications grid drives me crazy, it uses more resources (and loves draining the battery)
Thank you very much for taking the time to post. I found it really useful.
I stuck with original HTC ROM with 6.1 and I am loving it. Shazam works wonderfully well. The phone is so damn sharp. And, using 2 apps at once is brilliant.
Does anyone know if I can put more icons/apps on the TODAY SCREEN?
At the moment, I am only allowed to put 6 in the start menu screen, and 1 (tom tom) on the today screen.
My Start menu has: 1 File explorer, 2 organiser (i use the calculator a lot), 3 internet explorer, 4 MS word (for my notes), 5 shazam (use a lot), 6 Resco photo manager (for uploading to FlickR)
I'd like to add 2 more apps (wunder radio + core player) somewhere with quick access.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Try copying applications links (.lnk files) from \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ to \Windows\Start Menu\
I'm not sure if it's going to work with Windows Mobile 6.1, but it's safe to try
Hello!
So I am having some problems with my X1. It is laggy and it freezes pretty often. Sometimes I have to remove the battery many times in a day becouse of freezing. And writing with hardware keyboard isn't very nice anymore becouse the letter are coming to screen with delay and sometimes it skips over some letters. Then I have also had some weird problems sometimes that when someone calls to me and I try to answer the phone it just disconnects the call. And phone has freezed couple of times on its own without I've done anything with it. Once it didn't wake me up in the morning becouse it had freezed during night. So I really can't trust this machine at the moment.
I did hard reset couple of months ago becouse I had some similar problems before. Now it is not so bad but still annoying. I am considering buying new phone but I like this one and if there is way to make it work it would be nice.
So I am using Windows Mobile 6.1 original version and I haven' done any modifications. Just using mobile shell panel and couple other software. So I would like to get my phone stable and reliable again.
they sound like all the problems i've had with a custom rom! this never happened to me on 6.1 :S did you ever flash any custom roms before then go back to 6.1?

No I've never used custom rom. Although I bought this phone used little bit over year ago so I can't know for sure if previous owner had tried out some custom rom. But I still doubt it. This phone was just couple of months old when I bought it.
You have any ideas how to get rid of these problems?
Have you tried reflashing your rom using SEUS? Another advice I can give you is to install a decent task manager that shows all running processes. Maybe there is some kind of software running in the background that destabilizes your phone. Check Windows\StartUp to see if your phone loads any additional programs during the boot sequence.

Thanks for your input altae!
I haven't tried reflashing rom. I have no idea how it works. So if you could give me some kind of clear step by step instructions or link. And does it remove all the saved data in the phone?
And I checked Windows/Startup folder and there are four items in there.
Paneldefault
panelmanager
Panolauncher
RunGNAgent
I am using Panoramic launchpad so the Panolauncher belongs to that program. Panoramic launchpad is quite nice program but I think it is little bit buggy. Should I remove it? But I don't hve idea what are the other programs. I've used xperiatweak to change the startup panel to the mobile shell so I think "Paneldefault" and "panelmanager" could refer that perhaps?
edit:And btw here is list of programs I've installed.
Panoramic Launchpad
Spb Mobile shell
Spb Keyboard
Resco explorer
Clifford's XperiaTweak
Resco photoviewer pro
CoreCodec CorePlayer
Burrotech Scan2PDF
Aidem Pocket Painter
Spb TV
Viksoe.dk Flite
DS-Info DiamondTV
Adisasta wmTorrent v3
PPCLINK HiCalc
+All the original X1 programs
Paneldefault belongs to Xperia Tweak. It loads the default panel you have set. Panelmanager is what it's called, the panelmanager Panolauncher could indeed be a reason for your problems. Why don't you delete the entry in the startup folder. You can still launch it manually. I don't know RunGNAgent.
To reflash your rom got to SE website and download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Software) from the support section. It explains step by step how to update. Post the results and we will see how to proceed.
Do a hard-reset or flash to one of the custom ROMs. Is it just me or does these things happen inevitably? Seems like the case for me. I hard-reset once every few months.
