it's part of aku2
but i used the new Qtek Test rom which is supposed to have aku2 but i did not see operator name on screen...?
Try O2 plus or phone Alarm
PhoneToday works for me the best...plus it allows you to automagically switch your phone off in the evening ! (PhoneAlarm still freezes my machine once in a while)

Hudson Mobile IP Dashboard and Hudson Mobile Phone Dashboard both are today plug ins which can be configured to give you the name of your mobile service provider in the today screen.
Regards
Davejeff: which version of phone today are you using?
Try this, the best

Not free, but the best by far...I use since a year ago and no problems...
FOUND AT LAST>>>
In a different part of the forum, its called o2 plus, version 2.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...days=0&postorder=asc&highlight=o2plus&start=0
it gives other added functionality, but i only want the network operator name bit...
heres a screen pic from xda atom... i'll post my screen soon...
Found at last.... all it needs is some registry keys... look at screen shot from Universal, and its working on my WIzard
Here's the keys:
(thanks to madcapmagician)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Wireless"]
"DLL"="netui.dll"
"Order"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000004
Dont forget to powercycle, and then gp to Start>Settings>today and put a check in Wireless
:lol:
And keep in mind that you'll need the new AKU2 ROM. So for those holding off on that for whatever reason - sorry, no gig for you (there's other solutions, of course, like DKToday)

Dude, your Today looks like SO COOL!
What apps do you use?
thats a screen shot from XDA atom... if you want that look, click on the link in the post to download o2 plus vserion 2.0 (cracked)...
yeah.. O2 know their customization stuffs when it comes to the PPC line Blows T-Mobile out of the water (even if T-Mobile does get their cute little T-Mobile Hotspots label instead of the Internet Explorer label on the top-right key).
Shame we have no O2 in NL anymore :\
Their TV adverts were always gorgeous as well
I found this file on ftp:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/SetHSDPA.zip
I don't know who uploaded it and where is it from (probably an ExtROM).
I used cabextract and strings commands to see what's in there, it seems released by HTC, as it contains this string, very similar to others found on other HTC binaries:
d:\My Documents\HTC\Proj\Hermes\SetHSDPA\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK (ARMV4 I)\Release\SetHSDPA.pdb
Anyone tried it? Is it really working? Is there more info about this I am missing?... thanks!
Whats it do?
Apart from Set HSDPA ?!?!?
Oh yeah, pof !
Also just discovered it on the ftp.
Mystification or leeched from a HTC server ?
The exe won't run on the PDA, but what should it do if run on a PC ?
On the one hand I keep away from trying out dubious software on the PC (won't catch me one of those tricky rootkit trojans or the like).
On the other hand you can also find information on this code here:
http://d.hatena.ne.jp/kyunga/20060707
and here
http://d.hatena.ne.jp/kyunga/20060720
Only problem is:
I do not understand Japanese...
But I'm sure someone here can read this and can report what our friends far away in Japan might have found out
[Calling for xda-dev members from Japan !]
Also I'd be interested in finding out what it does as I always "only" get very good UMTS speed with my HTC here, though HSDPA is there (checked with one of those Mobile Connect Data Cards).
So my TyTN is either not (yet) HSDPA enabled or somehow it is unable to "understand" the encoding from the network here and falls back to UMTS.
Interesting anyway, but I'm sure we will find out about it soon.

You have to run the .lnk file, not the .exe file, this is what it does: SetHSDPA.exe /Enable

Yes, I am always getting UMTS speeds too...
Yes, I am original writer of those articles in my blog
20060707 is written about SetHSDPA.exe option, and 20060720 is about English ROM for Dopod CHT9000 (actually for Dopod 838 Pro that just released in Singapore).
I guess SetHSDPA.exe is in the ROM of all HTC hermes devices. The "SetHSDPA.exe /enable" or "SetHSDPA.exe /disable" is described on PreAutoRun.txt file in \Windows folder of Hermes, and be executed it at the first (or hard reset) initializing process of device(before AutoRun from Extended_ROM).
You can check whether HSDPA of your device is enabled or disabled through open the \Windows\PreAutoRun.txt. At least in case of CHT9000, HSDPA is enabled by default.
Regarding the SetHSDPA.zip on the FTP, I guess a Japanese guy (NOT me) has uploaded it, because I saw a post about uploading this file in a Japanese BBS yesterday.
In Japan, NTT DoCoMo (the largest mobile phone service provider in Japan) has started to ship Japanese version of Hermes under the "hTc Z" name from end of last month. hTc Z have also SetHSDPA.exe in the ROM, however it has DISABLED by default, because still DoCoMo has not started HSDPA service on their UMTS network (branded as "FOMA") yet. I heard it will be started end of this month or early September.
So I guess the Japanese poster of this file has copied it from his or her CHT9000, and post into the FTP with /enable shortcut (.lnk).

Yes you're right, I've checked on my TyTN and SetHSDPA is in \Windows folder and called from PreConfig.txt file (not PreAutoRun.txt).
There is some other interesting stuff on that file also
Many thanks for your clear explanation, I posted the details to wiki
Thanks!

My V1605 shows "disable" in preconfig.txt. Phoned customer support at VF business and was told that this was correct as they are currently only supporting HSDPA on data cards. At this time it is not clear if/when this may change! This is totally different to what I was told when I ordered it.
Since I got my t-mob data card at the weekend I thought the V1605 was slow.
The sethsdpa.ink will not run on my device so I assume it is a first boot only thing, if not somebody please tell me how to make it run!

just put .exe and .lnk in the same folder, and click on .lnk. Nothing is displayed on the screen (as it is intended to run at boot time, and you don't want to see popups when booting), but HSDPA is then enabled.

I tried that but I think Vodafone did something later on to stop it working. I get the message
"The file 'SetHSDPA.exe /Enable' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file."
Please help Just got a data card and I now realise how much faster HSDPA is and want it for my mobile surfing.

The EXE is already in \Windows Folder on XDA trion!
You need only the .lnk File.
right you are. but nevertheless, if you use the xisting sethsdpa.exe, I get the error message: "hsdpa.exe/enable can't be opened. either you are using a file with not trustworthy signature or the file can't be found. please install file again"
have you really tried it on your trion? definitely not working on mine

Then you Link is wrong!
The file calls "SetHSDPA.EXE" not HSDPA.EXE
sorry, I meant "sethsdpa.exe" I guess, I have the right file as I only copied it from the upload on ftp without any changes. just does not work.
has anybody experienced that it works?

Hi Frank,
Just want to know, does your ISP HSDPA can make voice call? Per HK smartone vodaphone said 3.5 G HSDPA service has no voice channel!!! What else solutions can help? SKYPE (really stupid for a phone to use SKYPE to make calls) or dual Number SIM card? Does a dual chips SIM card can support both 2G and 3.5G at the same card?
Thanks,

Hi
i am having a problem with browing any website on my PPC, the problem is that when i try to open any webpage it stalls on 1kb and it only opens the page partially.
I read another post and they managed to solve this by selecting the correct encoding which was Western European. is there any other possible reasons why this type of behaviour will be experienced on the device?
hope te hear from the superior knowledge of the forum members.
regards
reo
I had that problem when I used one of the custom roms. When I flashed the stock t-mobile ROM, it went away almost completely. Once in a great while it'll happen but I'm talking like twice since going with a stock rom. Couldn't tell you what the difference was as the stock rom performance was fine and I didn't really care enough to look into it further.

I'm pretty sure it's a connection issue (I've had similar problems with, say, non-CrEme 4.1 + Toonel pre .54 combinations - see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/ConfigureToonel45.asp for more info).
BTW, what ROM do you have?
MTU settings could it be the reason ??
Hi
Just to let you no, recently i travelled to another country and i decided to get a sim card and test my device in this country, surprisingly it worked fine i could browse with no problems.
only from in my country on my network do i get this strange behaviour.
Do u think its related to the MTU settings ? if i adjust this then mayb it will allow me to browse, judging from your response i noticed that this option that you suggested is to reduce bandwidth usage therefore allowing to view pages faster.
Thanks kindly
reo
Yeah, this seems to be a problem with your wireless operator. (You could still give a try to it in a, say, inexpensive, GPRS-capable "dumb" phone like the S-E t68i / t610 connected to your PDA / notebook)

You can surely give a try to Toonel (I've BTW linked in Toonel because, under WM5, the (old) Java version has exactly the same problems with old(er) Java environments - I've elaborated on this problem a lot in my articles. That is, the problem was similar to that of yours).
thanks for your help it is most informative, i am currently loading the toonel to test and i will post my results here.
thanks again

setup using newer versions of the program, i hope it does not create an incorrect behviour.
setup toonel have just a quick query
Hi
i have managed to setup toonel version .50, using creme 4.21. i have pIE and this all on a WM5 OS.
i did not utilise the link i just executed directly from the toonel.jar file.
now it is running but i would like to just clearify that i done it correctly.
about the connections i used the method u suggested and created a new connection under the top selection which is used for programs to connect directly to the internet and named it toonel, and made all the adjustments on proxy, i also put the details of the modem which is the GPRS connection for my country.
now i am ready to use.
i have a question about the tab in Toonel called WEB, is there any setting that i should have setup in here, it has a an option called Parent Proxy address.
Regards
reo
HI
ok, i had to reset the device for things to start working properly.
now i hve to use the link, it doesnt set creme as the default JVM. so after i execute i get an error saying **cant find class client.WebUI
im sure there it is a path issue, but not sure about where is the web.ui
reo
Don't struggle with the Java version - use the new PPC-based one. See http://pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/ConfigureToonel54.asp .
(Sorry, I've linked in the older Java version because it produced exactly the same symptomps under WM5 as yoour case, not because it's the Toonel version I recommend for you.)
hi
ok, i see. the behaviour i am experincing you noticed it using Toonel java version.
have you get any ideas what could be causing my problem ?
Now we no that it is probably a problem at my network, however is there any way to over come this ?
i actually noticed 1 thing, Magician S100 QTEK works on my network properly!!
any ideas what could be the difference ?
what are the chances that it is related to the UAProfile ? if so how could it effect the browsing ?

no luck with toonnel with "unlimited internet tzones"
now that tzones offers "unlimited internet" ( http://jkontherun.blogs.com/jkontherun/2006/12/got_tmobile_tzo.html ) I tried to use toonel with my wizard to speed up the connexion but didn't have any chance ... I tried the 3 versions on http://toonel.net/downloads.html (I even installed the Creme JVM) though ... some ports must still be closed ...
any idea/comment anybody ?
PS :
the good thing with "tzones unlimited internet" is that I can now use opera mini, gmail java, google maps java, etc ...
i had the same problem with uk tmobile. i called them and they said it would be fixed soon-and a few days later it was!!
maybe call your network provider before messing with your phone settings

you're right - It's working now yippee !
Um, I've had a search everywhere for this: can anyone get vodafone live! on their v1605? I was assured by VF CS at least twice that it 'worked fine' and 'mobile tv, no problem' on the device, but i'm thinking this might have been a cunning marketing ploy..
help gratefully appreciated..
I was told Voda CS that the handset isn't compatibale with Live. I've not tried accessing. What is the link? I've always had a shortcut on all my other phones.
You can access live and tv although it is not supported. First off you need the UA string of a device that does support live (i.e. Nokia N70) - this is not just "NokiaN70" - there is a whole load of other stuff as well. Then one needs to do what is listed in this thread re the connection/proxy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29595&highlight=gprs+always
Thanks very much mate: works a treat and I'm now watching mobile TV atop my shiny new v1605, huzzah!
Can you post the link you are using? I don't know anyone else with a Vodafone to get this... Thx

does anyone know some other way?
WM6.1
He we have a number of these we need to upgrade. some have a win mobile Classic sticker on the bat compartment but have had WM5 installed.
Have you got anywhere with this yet.
I did find this license costs at
www barcodediscount.com catalog symbol part-swe-116044-01.htm
but need a cheaper solution for the old handsets
Derek
I'm looking too! Seems you can't even purchase it anymore and I need v6 for certain apps.
I also am looking to upgrade one of my MC70 devices from WM5 to WM6/6.1 because the wireless security in wm5 will not support WPA-2 on this Symbol device with provided software. Currently it only supports WPA Personal and such. Which is way too insecure.
Anyone have any idea, or maybe a 3rd party wifi client that could handle authentication for wm5?
This device is still far too useful to be cast into the depths of a landfill.
I mean, it still has:
Bluetooth
Wifi
GPS
Cellular (Sprint)
IrDA
1D and 2D barcode reader
"Waterproof"
and very rugged.
Thanks you guys!
My MC70 with windows 5.0 supports WPA-2. You should select AES encryption
Everyone looking for upgrade options can PM me
I got some PMs and responded to them but I'm not sure if it got delivered as I don't see it in my send messages

Hi sent PM! not avail anymore from barcode warehouse in UK, according to online search! what to do!!!
I have shouted and moaned at zebra and don't get very far, even offered to take a contract, I ended up talking with them for 4 months only for tech to decline due to age of kit.
Any how I also have a bunch of MC75 so tried again.
Well got a bit closer, I now have a WM6.5 update but cant get it to roll.
I have sent you a Pm

Hi
I also have a symbol mc70 (or 75 i dont know it yet) and called my Distributor for a Update.
I cant rember who told me the Distributor or Zebra Salesagent that the Upgrades to Win6.1 are not longer Available.
The Upgrade cost ~10€ and is just a Digital Licence.
You need the Zip file downloads and a SIG file which is the licence that makes the magic work
But you do need to know which handset you have, MC70xx can go upto 6.1, MC75 6.1 and 6.5 but I have found a bit of ambiguity there
it seems their are few diff types of MC75
Note. I moved to 6.1 on the MC70xx but found the trigger cradle no longer works, go back to 5.1 and all is well.
If someone has a workround for the trigger on 6.1 (and i have tried the wedge software) please let us know
DB
I dont have the device next to me. Do you have a source for a Licence?
Mine came from Barcode Warehouse uk last year
about £ 22.00 which then opend up an order on the zebra site
But you must have the correct order code, otherwise you will get the "dont know i cant find it" answer
I would be carfull of the e downloads
