I have a couple of questions on the Rooms piece to People Hub.
1)Is there a windows 8 pc app that lets you access, view, update a room?
2) How can you add the Room calendar to my Calendar on my Windows 8 pc?
Thanks for your responses.

I'm trying to find out all of the things you can port over to WM5 without having to undergo a rom change, such as:
Windows Live Messenger
Windows Live Search
Windows Live Today plugins
WM6 Remote Desktop
What about other features/apps that can go the distance?
Like WM6 IE,WM6 WMP, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook etc.
I'd like to port as many as possible if someone knows if I can find them or if it is even possible to do so.
I'm using a VGA PPC (Dell Axim X51v) for the record.

Hi all,
I've just ordered the HTC TYTN II with Orange in the UK. The phone is going to arrive on Tuesday and I thought I'd take a moment to work out what I'll need to do when the phone arrives.
I've had a little play with the phone in an Orange shop and I've concluded that the Orange firmware isn't very good. As a result, I think the first thing I'll need to do is flash the firmware with a generic one? I've never flashed one of these phones before and this'll be my first Windows Mobile device, if anybody could point me in the right direction it'd be great.
After that, what software should I be aware of for the device? It'll be handy if you know what I want to do with the phone and why I've chosen it.
I use my laptop a fair amount, but it's not always feasible to have it with me. As a result, I'd like the TYTN II to do some of my work on the go. I'll need it for:
Accessing work e-mail from an Outlook Exchange server and personal mail via POP3
Some sort of calendar, preferably one that I could sync to Outlook or Remember The Milk. I don't currently have a good calendar solution and what a means to have a calendar on my desktop, laptop and mobile. All of which need to be synched! Something that'll eleviate the need for a paper diary.
Web access, I need to access sites quite often, is the default browser any good? I don't have a mobile internet plan unfortunately (Orange don't seem to offer anything good, no mobile broadband, so I'll be using wi-fi access where I can).
Those essentially are my main requirements. If anything, I want the TYTN II to be my personal planner. Want it to have all my notes, calendar items, tasks, e-mails etc in one place and want those items to also sync to my desktop and my laptop.
Thanks in advance for any advice, I'm excited about getting the phone, just another 2 days to wait!
Sorry to sound like an a**, did you ot notice the rules, and the 5 stickies in the Kaiser forum? Just use the search functions, XDA is flooded with topics such as yours.
"where should I start?"
Ummm, here's a good place. Start reading, don't flash any roms for a while just play with the tons of Cabs and tweaks for starters, and there are a TON.
Have fun.
I recently switched to a Mac and was wondering if anyone knew the alternative to Microsoft ActiveSync on Mac OS X. I did a brief search and came up with information about Microsoft Entourage [which I do have on my Mac] and was just wondering if anyone has experience with this? If I plug my Tilt right into my Mac, will Entourage pick it up or what?
Thanks in advance, Walt.
For Mac OS X, you need a (non-free) software called Missing Sync.
Or you can use Parallels to run Windows XP and ActiveSync from within Mac OS.

I have an iMac running Leopard and I run Missing Sync. Works great for me. Syncs Address Book, iCal , iPhoto , Tasks, Phone Log, even iTunes (non DRM ) music.
I also have my Tilt sync'd to the Windows XP side of my Mac because the one thing you cannot do through Missing Sync is flash new roms or radios. That can only be done through Windows. But I use Bootcamp , I used to use Parallels but their support for their product is non existent.
I needed help with a setting and emailed them and Nova Development no less than 15 times, never even an acknowledgement. Bootcamp is free runs smoother and has better graphics compatibility.
You will need a Windows machine for updates.
syncmate
syncmate is free and works great for me. Im running leopard on a powerbook.

same here, no complaints at all ..
i recommend u have dual system - get windows xp as a virtual machine it will be cost effective and more reliable especially if you are a flashing man like the rest of us
best regards

On my MacBook Pro, Missing Sync.
One note on uploading ROM's. I was able at one time to do it using Parallels but recently one of Dutty's ROMs locked my Tilt in the Tri color screen. It wasn't the ROM, something had change either in a new version of Parallels or OSX. Moving over to an old Toshiba fixed the phone. I've since tested it again and it still fails on Parallels. Just a word to the wise.

Same thing happened with me under parallels. I can still flash radio firmware and splashes using Parallels, but when flashing the entire rom, its like the connection gets interrupted or timed out. I was previously able to do it before so Im positive its either a parallels or OSX issue when it updated.
Dual boot and use WinDoZe to handle the rom flashing, but honestly Missing sync works great for the contacts / address book info / ect.
=D
I tried to reply to your post maybe 3 different times last night through opera on my device but failed...
anyway i'm on the same boat. Have misssing sync but dont use it much.. my main mode of connectivity is on windows running through vmware's fusion... no problems what so ever with flashing roms.. i used to use parallel's but tried out fusion and liked it a lot better! highly recommend it.

I tried quickly to get my Wizard syncing with a VirtualBox VM with no success. Does someone use VirtualBox to connect to a WM device?
Hey,
Thanks for looking. Ok so I know I only have a couple of posts but before calling me a n00b, please understand that I have thoroughly searched this forum for an answer and cannot find. Before I was using Dutty's ROM and couldnt get Windows Live to work at all. Now I have SeatOne's Cupra V2.3 ROM with the IDiamond UI. So I finally got Windows Live working with it too. But the problem now is that I have 2 different Hotmail Accounts and would like to have them all syncing simultaneously, so I can use all 3 at the same time, and get an alert if I get a new email on any of them. However the Windows Live app only supports one account at a time. Is there anyway around this? Or a different app I could use so I can view all 3 accounts. Thanks in advance, I appreciate all the help.
Thanks

I've had a search here already and could not find an answer, so ...
Is there anyway to directly sync (in both directions) a Windows Phone 8 mobile with MS Outlook (no exchange server) on a PC ?
I've been using my Outlook on my PC as a central point of control since I moved from my SE T68i/Palm Tungsten T2 combination to a SE P900, so over a decade now, and have no intentions to change (plus I, for various reasons, have no desire to dump my personal data in 'The Cloud').
I was able to do this with my old WinMobile 5 and 6 phones (through Activesync ?) and then my android phones (through MyPhoneExplorer on my Nexus 4 and on my older Desire Z when HTC dropped the ball on the Gingerbread upgrade), but I know yo could not do so with Win Phone 7.
Note if it's manufacturer specific (as it is with Android) then it's the Nokia Lumia 1020 that's tempting me with it's compact camera sensor (or is it a compact camera with a phone module included ....).
If it's not possible to do it with manufacturer/Windows software, then are there third party applications out there (such as MyPhoneExplorer) ?

I'm going to check later but this question has been asked before, an I'm fairly sure it was almost exactly the same question, I also have a feeling it was asked in wp7 as well ages ago. H
No is the answer, an the my phone explore option you talk about for android, by your own admission, doesn't work correctly either.
I know change seems a pain in the arse, but if you want full out look sync then your going to have to go back to something like the HTC HD2 and use wm 6
My friend, an in sure it was you I spoke to before about wp7, this is never going to change, you can have it with wm6, you can have a bodged version with android, but wp has left that (admitted fairly useful) feature behind, the cloud is the future, like it or not.
