We are told that there are ROM routines in the xda 2 to use the camera as a barcode reader.
This implies that you point the camera at a label and it will output an ASCII string as a normal code reader would.
Is this someones dream?
If its true, its a fantastic plus but can anyone confirm and point to some data on this.
:?:
I too would be interested in this information but I don't see it being tue as I don't see that functionality being useful to most users of the device.
I know from looking around that there are apps that can recognise barcodes from images and I am sure that some and I am sure that somewhere there is one that runs on Pocket PC.

Told by whom :?:
if you go to the www.myxda.com website you'll read in the demo, that yeah, you can convert your xda2 to a bar code reader, how?. simple, via the CF backpack, and then use a CF bar code reader. with the CF backback, you'll be able to convert your XDA2 in anything that uses CF or SD!
Think about it:
Radio FM
Bar code scanner
Gigabytes of Microdrives
etc

Greetings All,
Has anyone got photos of CF backpacks for XDAII ?????

Is this what it might look like on the XDA2 :shock:
http://www.the-gadgeteer.com/whitney-ipaq-sleeve-modifications-review.html
Hmmm... surely it wouldn't be too hard take a grabbed photo, and cut lines say at 5 degree increments around it looking for conformant barcodes.
Or is this patented already?

the cool thing, is that you get the 2 add-ons in the backpack (VGA & CF), the bad, It will problably be expensive.

Cheers Brethren!
MORE PHOTOS:
for more pictures go to:
FCC document
by the looks of the pics, I'm sure it will be no more bulky than the XDA 1 with the extended battery, problably George Mosquera could slim it down bit to make it even slimmer.
hmmm....this just got me thinking.....Imagine playing Warfare Inc. and Snailz or Worms on a BIG SCREEN TV!!!!!
w00t!!!! :twisted:
visit http://www.aipsys.com and download the barcode decoding SDKs to develop you scanner applications.

Does anyone know if this can be done on the XDA II?
One of the third party software that I used for this purpose is MTUX RintoneX. Have a look at www.mtux.com
Like Chriswo I too use RingToneX to add that missing feature of user assignable ringtones to my XDA II. It's isn't freeware but it does work well and is easy to use.
Any sign of a freeware application to do this simple task alone anyone?
RinTonex
Dear Criswo and Ednap,
to use RinTonex did had to unistall the IA software or can you get the picture from the IA SW and the ring from RinTonex?
Thanks!
Chris
P.S.: also, have you tried other appications for this purpouse? Why do you think that RinTonex is better than the other available...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=522&highlight=
IA Caller ID doesn't need to be uninstall. RingtoneX can work on top of IA Caller ID after all, one sees the numbers and find the matching PHOTO, and the other sees the number and find the matching Ringtone. They can work together.
THANK YOU!!!
WOW!
This is what I wanted to hear!!! :lol:
I wasn't sure both SWs could see the caller at the same time!
I undestanding you have used this combination and it worked! :wink:
Thanks!
Chris
Exactly like chriswo says, they can work side by side and all OK
does ne 1 have the serial for ringtonex ???

Time and Place for everything. I am sure we all might know places to get keygens and hacks for various needs.
However, this forum is NOT the place for it. There are other places to post that.
A moderator should remove the postings as soon as possible.
There is no other place even remotely like XDA-Developers. To get it shut down because somebody has no class would be really pathetic.
Give Phonext a try, it is free and does what the OP wants: assign a ringtone to a contact. You'll find it here:

Ok, sorry
Phonext on my SX56
I can't run the "SetupPhonExt_PPC2002.exe" on my XDA. is it because its the ATT version? I unlocked it by switching to PPC2002 w/ the unlock in the ROm, then reflashing w/ WM2003. I copied the file over, and it can't install. Is there something i'm missing? It says it is not a valid application.
Sorry but i dont know how these devices are called in english but heres a picture:
http://www.alternate.de/html/main/product/DetailPopup.html?artno=UG#W63
I want to use my MDA as these Tablet while its connected to the pc maybe theres a application which could move the mouse when i move my stylus on the mda screen..
there is a freeware somewhere for this (possibly a Microsoft powertoy?), can't remember where now but google for it.
use a screen protector!

I just tried it.. it is awesome....
to bad it's not free any more
This program will be much easier to use, if the PDA's screen is large..
using this program on a small screen like the magician's will be useless IMHO
Should be fairly easy to re write. Will try to investigate later!

PPC Tablet
You might want to try this, it's a commercial product, and as such it serves the purpose well.
http://www.aacompserv.com/AACompweb/PPCTablet/WhatIsIt.aspx
It has several predifined layout :a drawing tablet, touchpad, numeric pad, presentation controller, windows media controller. You can even create your own layout or modify existing one.

Yep, you should give it a try if you're bored one day or another. The trial works OK... I like the idea of using the XDA as a universal remote for the laptopo via the design mode but as a pure Graphical tablet the thing sucks. And aside from this I have trouble getting decent connections. Direct connections over ActiveSync (USB or Bluetooth) for some reason are the most dodgy. And if they work they are hopelessly sluggigh - i.e. a few pixels movement a second. If you get to work on this, lemme know. I might have the odd idea for a feature.
Hi guys,
i know there is a thread on eten's zoom sms.
i was wondering if anyone has managed to extract out eten's frequency dial and quick links?
i will die without those once my htc tytn comes in! lol
I know that the QuickDial is available in the EtenPack2 on BuzzDev.
This is the link: BuzzDev Website.
is it? i couldn't find it.
how do i activate it?
I don't know if you need these 2, but I've ripped a couple of apps out here:

It is the same - there's an option in it to set freq dial or index dial.

Howdy VJ - what mods did you have to make to them? SD runs fine on my Wizard btw. If you don't mind I'd like to include it in the next ROM I squeeze together for Cingular folks.
summiter: hey! I did some basic resource hacking and packing, but throw it into anything you can!
I've got some nice Mio apps as well (very nice speed dialler), I'll see if there's anything that might be useful to you.

thx bud you rock!
thanks for the progammes dude
i noticed the frequency dial is not the latest version. any chnace of getting hold of the newest one? :-D
btw, do u have the quick link too? i prefer that over spb pocket plus.
I would like to see if the Eten Call Recognition software would run on a Exec, quite fancy the idea of Gif anim contact pics !
http://www.etencorp.com/products/Communication/software.php?sid=14
I'll see if I can find a new rom to rip. The Eten stuff typically aimed high but failed to satisfy, much like my own bedroom exploits.
If anyone's got a link to a new rom, could you pm it to me?

Is there anyone that can make a Dialpad that takes up more of the screen, Im looking for something along the lines of the example of the picture on the right.

The att one on the left is the current one I have which is the closest thing but very hard to use while driving and running around, which I got from PhilD41
I just changed the all the buttons to invert when they are pressed down where his only inverted the number and you couldn't see it under your finger while pressing it. If someone can just create one I can skin it myself, I just need a base to put them on. Thanks.
If anyone wants mine Ive attached it, to install just extract to windows directory.ONLY IF YOU HAVE HTC DAILER
you can try DXC's iphone dialpad, any style that's doesn't have a .5 at the end.

Some time ago I made a small flash app that was fullscreen:
(It has severall skins)
Its not great, but it works...
You can get it here:

Under the area MOBILE/FLASHKALL
How do i use this flash dialpad? i have wm2003 and macromedia flash 7 installed but when i dial a number nothing happens...
Sorry, works fine here...
You just need flash 7, dial a number and press the green button...
oh, the EXE exports the data to the storage card, so I guess you need one too...
But i can make a version that exports to a automatic temp folder managed by you system.
hm... i have a storage card and in the temp folder are the files.
I use a german rom wm2003 rom for my magician. There is probably a difference between the folder names: the storage card is called Speicherkarte for example.
Too bad that it isnt working for me
A while ago I made a dialer that is full screen. It has no functionality other than dialing, and only works when installed to main memory...

Try VSPainter or Pencil Box they are not free though
too bad that they are not free
are there any free programs?
If you're after an exact copy of MSPaint then CEPaint is what you're after, though again it's not free.
ETA: Actually, give this a shot, it's free.

For PPC image editors, you probably can't get much better than these three:
Pocket Picture (Just-as-good freeware):
http://osdmsoftware.googlepages.com/pocketpicture
Pocket Artist 3 (Pay-application):
http://www.conduits.com/products/artist/
XnView (Free cross-platform):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xnview
http://www.xnview.com/
http://www.xnviewpocket.org/
Having tried almost every image editor on the Diamond, I can conclude that the above options are the very best available, especially considering the requirement for full VGA compatibility, photo editing, multi-format etc.

Which version?
http://www.xnviewpocket.org/download_uk.html
The
"XnView Pocket v1.40 (Pocket PC 2002-2005/Windows Mobile 5-6)"
is for xscale but there is a:
XnView Pocket v1.40 (Pocket PC ARM)
which one is for the Diamond?
I just found out that there is in fact a freeware version of VSpainter which I found here
The one which is included in Dutty's ROM is PDACraft Paint.
