HI ALL,
risidoro is back!
EDIT: VERSION 11.1.7.1023 IS NO MORE THE LATEST ONE. I'VE PUBLISHED THE MOST UPDATED VERSION (.1034) HERE. PLS USE THAT ONE AND DO NOT CONSIDER ANY MORE THE POST BELOW!!!
I'm here to release a New and Improved version of the great:
Intent MIDlet Manager version 11.1.7.1023
This new MIDlet Manager comes from the new HTC Herald ROM, version 1.2.405
This new version is JTWI 1.0 compliant and SUPPORTS Google's SATELLITE Maps (of course, you need to download Google Maps' client from www.google.com/gmm).
This release also supports sending SMSs from Opera Mini 3.0 (mini.opera.com)!!!
Some Details about the program:
Developer: Intent
Name: MIDlet Manager
Version: 11.1.7.1023
Build: 20060907
JWTI v.1.0 Compliance!
------- HOW TO INSTALL ------------
- Download Risidoro's Intent MIDlet Manager version 11.1.7.1023
- extract the cab (inside the archive) somewhere in your PC (e.g. Desktop)
- copy to somewhere in your PocketPC (e.g. \storage card)
- in your PocketPC, navigate with File Manager to the cab and tap on it to install
- when asked, choose to install in the Device (and NOT in Storage Card!)
- reboot when asked
PS: It can be installed over previous version (or in roms where the old midlet is included)!
-------- WORKING MIDLETS ---------------
So far, i've only tested it with the midlets i use the most.
- Google Maps runs fine. Satellite maps are supported!!!
- Opera Mini 3.0 runs OK too and supports SMS sending. Even softkeys works! Photo blog feature, however, is not supported
- Mobile GMaps, beta 1.30.08. Simply wonderful. Sat images for google and yahoo maps.
- MobileMule (latest beta) works ok.
-------- PROBLEMS SO FAR (and possible solutions) ---------------
- a user wasn't able to use this version to connect to the Internet through a proxy
---> use a direct connection to the Internet; check your proxy; downgrade to the old MIDlet manager version.
- the cab cannot be installed due to a security warning
---> soft-reset and retry; use MS Certificate Powertoy for Windows Mobile 5 to disable all the security checks
- If you want to revert back to the old version of the Intent MIDlet manager:
Download the Intent MIDlet manager version 10.1.7.551
Bye bye
ENJOY
Great job as always risidoro!
Thanks!
Thanks...will install shortly.

Sweet, thanks! I was just lamenting this problem a couple of days ago.
Great work! Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the file. I'll give it a try later.
Thanks!
As always, you rock!
Great work and thanks a lot
Thanks for the file, Risidoro. I have downloaded it, and will try it later. Good to have a better midlet manager.
For those concerned with using gmaps on their phone, however, there are a couple free native Windows Moble programs which will display such maps. I find them much more convenient than using a Java midlet, no matter how good the midlet manager might be.
One such program is called Map4PDA, another one is Virtual Earth Mobile. And there is also Microsoft's new beta "Live Search". There may be more, these three come to mind right away. (I don't have the URLs handy. You can find them with a search.)
There is also another Java midlet map program called MGMAPS, which I find more flexible than Google's GMAPS. (It will show the Google maps, or the Microsoft maps, or Yahoo maps, and has other more flexible features.) However, I still find it much simpler to use a Windows Mobile app, rather than a Java midlet.
why use the google one? dny238 found an app that is free and blows the google maps out of the water.
http://wls.live.com
will even allow you to use your gps reciever with it and update the image as your driving.. just my .02 cents
and if i could learn to read it looks like "me" mentioned this one above

I prefer native applications too (although i couldn't live without Opera Mini) but microsoft's maps haven't a good satellite coverage in italy compared to google maps so i don't like MSN virtual earth or Live search very much. I didn't know Map4PDA and i'm going to install it very soon, i hope it supports google sat maps!
Thanks for the suggestions. Let me know if you remember some other google maps compatible native software.
Bye

I can read and yes, i know MS's Live search; however, as i said, MSN satellite maps are not much detailed outside US, especially in Italy.
With Google sat maps i can zoom over my house until i can even see my car parked in front of it! With MSN sat maps i can only see all my town, when i try to zoom more i see a message informing the area is not mapped.
BTW, i've just tried map4pda and i've found it slower than mgmaps (a midlet). Map4pda is a .Net 2 application so it's not a real 'native' application, its code is managed (or runtime) exactly like any java applet.
I'll stick with mgmaps until i find a real, compiled, ppc application.
Anyway, if you believe in the newer-is-better paradigm like me (*), you will want to update your midlet manager with the newer version i posted. Just my two cents.
(*) the paradigm doesn't apply to MS's latest OS. IMHO, XP (or 2003 server) is ways better than Vista!

i guess i sometimes forget that not everywhere is covered as detailed as the US..
anyway, im getting ready to try this on my 8525/hermes and will let you know if it works on it!
**EDIT**
works great on the hermes, and im lazy and posted this copy/paste on the hermes board, and gave you the proper credit for the work!
thanks but I wasn't able to complete the install of the new MM on my MDA Vario II (Hermes) due to some "security warnings". after going back to some previous midlet manager (v10.1.7.551) I ALWAYS get an error message (sth like "midlet won't run") if I try to run ANY java midlet (jar or jad). any ideas on how to solve this?

Try soft resetting your phone before installing the CAB.

FWIW, the Map4PDA works well with a bluetooth GPS receiver and Faria's 12mb AKU3.2 ROM RC1. (I overclock and plug in the charger and the phone/map/GPS plotting zips along).

I tried installing this version yesterday, but found I cannot connect via a proxy on my tzones setup. I uninstalled and put the version I pulled from X's extended ROM and it worked fine. Not sure if anyone is interested, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
Hi everyone,
Just a quick question, and I have tried searching...
I'm looking at upgrading my Tom tom v6 to v7 and buying new maps. The main reason I am doing this is because my maps are really out of date now, im finding lots of roads that don't exist, and extra turnings on roundabouts.
Does V7 with 8.25 maps work with mapshare?
This is a great feature, so hope us Pda users can take advantage.
Thanks,
Rob
Using an 825 map right now and with Tomtom Home2 I can use the mapshare function So the answer is: yes

Great, thanks for the advice Cryonic. Sounds like I will have some new settings to play with then...
what is the latest map now for tomtom on a pda 825........?
Depends on which part of the world you're using for western europe I believe it's 825.2159
^what about usa?
i'm out of the loop on the tomtom
Quick search tells me that 825.2159 is also the latest map for USA and Canada
Anyone know why western and centrel europe 825.2159 is only a gig in size but the older number 825.2158 is nearly 2 gig but the later is supposed to be newer

This thread is all going to get people sore I suspect
I suggest you look on alternative forums for information on TT version 8.x maps....
However the reason the 8.25(2159) W&CE map is smaller than the 8.25(2158) version is due to the extra information the 2158 version contains. The actual map content is the same however some additional information in some maps is not required by some TT versions (not just the Windows Mobile version, but the 'real' TT PNA's as well). Some maps contain IQ routing information as well as Advanced Lane Guidance neither of which is supported by some TT versions such as the Windows Mobile versions. Therefore this information is stripped out of the map you would buy for your PDA (should it actually be available for a Kaiser, which it isn't.....).
Hopefully that reply doesn't cross the line? but if it does moderate it as you feel appropriate.

Thanks Andy but I do have 8.25(2159) running on my kaiser so it must be avaiable - shame we cant have the IQ though

Yes so have many people, however it can't be running legally on a Kaiser - neither the application, nor the map as TomTom Navigator 7 for Windows Mobile is not commercially available. It is only available pre-installed on three HTC devices (up to now) - the Touch Diamond, Touch Pro and IOLite, and even then it is only in certain providers official ROMs. Users of these and ONLY these official devices can purchase and download official 8.x maps.
If you have it running on your Kaiser you didn't pay TomTom for it......

well it is not supposed to be available for the kaiser. Unfortunately, TomTom considers this illegal use of software.
Hi peeps, my first post here! I just got my X1 and is loving it!
I'm looking for a freeware GPS navigation software that will work properly with our X1 that does not require GPRS or WIFI connectivity.
Any reccomendations?
The only free and GPLed GPS software I know is local to Israel only WWW.WAZE.CO.IL program. It does use GPRS/WiFi but only to download RT information about traffic and map updates. Can be disabled.
There is SDK published to create your own maps but no WorldWide development active as soon as their software is completely free and community driven.
Hello, there's a freeware called NONI GPS Plot.
You can download it from : http://aeguerre.free.fr/Public/PocketPC/NoniGPSPlot/EN/index.php
It has a lot of functions : speed alarm, route tracing etc...
Regards
Hello,
Can any help me in telling the latest energy ROM which supports
opera 10
Also i am looking for digital compass, is it there
thank you in advance
they all support opera 10. if its not in the ROM, just install it by going to the opera mobile website.
there are no compass applications as the HD doesnt have a compass. youll have to find something that uses GPS
Plus, if you have a query concerning a certain rom or chef, post your question in one of his/her threads. No need for a new thread.
Generic questions i.e. compass should be posted in General section or alternatively....search in applications forum
