Backlight app!
Hey man... Can you make a program for a backlight? Like dimming if your not using ur device for a second. Like in nokia phones. I just don't like suspending the device automatically because sometimes data transferring using bluetooth stops when the device suspended. I attempt to program it but it seems that I have to download megs of software which my PC can't handle bcoz I don't have enough space.
llolz lolz... i havent even started developing my first application and i'm getting a request
I will try to do my best
I'm trying to develop a pice of software in Visual Studio (C#).
My program works great at my machine using a GPS-simulator which sending streams on COM1.
When trying to deploy the program on my HTC Touch Diamond I'm using the COM4 port. The software succesfull connect to the COM4 using System.IO.Ports.SerialPort(...). I've added a DataReceived on this SerialPort, but when I run the program on my mobile it doesn't receive any data.
Does anybody know why?
Please say if you need further information.
Hi,
I'm working on a networking project. Im using the following device:
Platform: HTC TyTN II Kaiser
Operating System: Windows Mobile 6.1
I have a C++ programme that runs on linux in my computer. How can I run the same in this mobile device?
Many thanks

You need to use MS Visual Studio 2005 (or 2008) to compile the C++ program.
Or embedded visual C++.
A list of dev tools for PPC is on the wiki : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Complete list of Development links and resources

Throwing in my 2 cents in. Save yourself the trouble and don't even consider Embedded Visual C++ (4). Stick VS 2005+ and you'll be good.
The free express versions do not support mobile development.

This is what you need to know. There are SDKs for Pocket PCs that are built into Visual Studio. The default ones are adequate. Typically, you'll connect to a PDA/PocketPC via ActiveSync. Visual Studio will pick up on this. There are specific mobile properties and options for this.
From that point, it's point and shoot. When you debug an application, it will automatically go over to the Windows CE device. If you're doing .Net it will install a cab for .Net
Thanks again Peter for your reply.
Even though my project is to programme for this HTC device I don't have the device yet. So what I need to do is test it on my laptop.
Is there any Windows Mobile 'simulator' that I can run on my computer and test?
Also I will need to install Visual Studio on this simulator, is it?

Hi Peter,
Please take a look at the above links. Are these any of the ones I should use?
Thanks
You want to get a copy of Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 if you are serious about programming - I got it from my university and the MSDNAA Website which allows students to download selected MS software which is related to my course for free - and being a computer science student they give me VS 08.
But it is available on several torrent websites. Remember I am not recommending nor do I condone illegal downloading of pirated software - I am only providing information for research purposes.
Why do you want it?
Its a complete developement environment - You get everything - Including an emulator to test your programs. You can download plugins, which let you program in other languages (e.g. I have the VB Mobile plugin which allows me to program in VB for mobile devices) - The plugins are free.
Personally, I use it for a large chunk of my programming - as it supports a vast array of programming languages - and it includes built in compilers (I know this sounds obvious, but I have used programming environments which do not contain compilers), Emulators (for testing) and can support alot more with downloadable plugins (obviously you need the SDK).
If your PC is a little old (eg early XP) - get VS05 - but if you have a newer PC (late XP to Vista), get VS08, they both do basically the same thing.
Hope this helps.
Hi again,
Many thanks for your reply
Will this version of VS work for my project? :
Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition (90-day Trial)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...ec-ed72-4a79-8961-25635db0192b&displaylang=en
If it does... then i will install it first in my laptop (which run Win XP Pro) and then I will install the emulator.
This is the emulator right?
Windows Mobile 6 Professional and Standard Software Development Kits Refresh

Looking forward for your support thanks
hi guys i have this crazy idea is it possible to install Blackberry OS to XDA IIs ?
thanks all
I think it is possible with RIM only, because them keep the system source in private zone, you'll even hard to get an application working without digital signature from them .
Hi everyone, first post here!
I am trying to write a imple app in J2ME that is able to give me some measure of localization info printed on screen. To my demise, I found out that the Java VM existing in the HTC Diamond (Esmertec) does not support the Location API (JSR179) and not even the typical bluetooth API! I am currently trying to, somehow, access GSM info like CellID, so at least I am able to output something.
Has anyone ever tried to do something like this with the HTC, and could provide some insight, plz?
BR,

but that being said wm is a horrid java platform
you're better off making c# or c++ apps for wm
java is best for symbian or android
