configurate more than 30 XDA II - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

I need to configure more than 30 XDA II with themes and settings all the same way. I tried this with my own extended Rom this worked fine but the latest rom i can't edit.
Does anybody have another solution ?

why not "ghosting" the first one with your complete setup with activesync's backup and then restoring on others 29 or more?

If it is for a company you could try sprite clone (basically ghost for PPC), works great but they only sell minimum 100 licenses @ 10 bucks a pop.
oops (that is $100 USD =10 copies @ 10 USD)

O2 Battery Plugin, hacked for use with MDA Compact & Jam

I really needed a battery plug-in for my compact and really didn't want to buy one, so I extracted the install.arm from my XDA IIs, badly and unprofessionally hacked it, and then produced this file, which actually installed and worked fine, however I have no idea what else it changed as yet, so consider using at your own risk!!
Would be great if someone could improve upon this!
Will have to try it. Good work.
there is an extROM from O2 xda mini (GER) on ftp, i just installed it a few days ago. the battery plugin is included, works fine.
where can I download it?
I can't find it here: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Extended_Roms/
Yeah I made the hack cus I couldn't find it either, but to be honest I didn't look very hard, and also because I am not on O2 but on T-Mobile, and I didn't want a load of O2 customizations. Hacking it seemed like a better way to limit my risk. Just my 2 cents, whatever works for you.
Try it and working nicely

Tariff software

hey i got a mda vario which im using with a orange uk sim i basically keep going over the minutes text allowance and there services are poor in telling me my usage of text and minutes is there any generic software for this device i can download that will keep track of my tariff usage. i had one for a symbian based phone before wondered if there is one for pocket pc based phones

is there a way to set the tarrif? i installed the app and it's working fine, but i can't find where to set the cost.
This software looks great ... didn't install it though :-/ My plan is unfortunatelly not based on free peak/off-peak minutes but rather on spending money (I have $xxx monthly included in my bill).
Any suggestions for this sort of tariff?

Go to Start -> Setting -> Today -> Click on DKToday -> Option
I think you can't have all the work done with it (i.e. calculate the amount that I have spent based on the time and day of the day that I've used, excluding the free calls and the best-pal calls). It just shows you how many minutes you have used.
There is a shareware that can do that, forgot its name. I didn't install it because it doesn't seems to work on my phone with WM5
actually, since i installed it on my kjam, i noticed it refreshing the today screen every 2 seconds, which i couldn't find a way to change it, therefor i removed it from my system.

That's true ... it's almost impossible to set it up so that it fits your plan... I remember that on Symbian phone I had program Extended Log from Psiloc which was customizable in any possible way, very very good and well thought piece of software! Unfortunatelly for PocketPC Phone Edition I couldn't find anything close to it :-(

Back-ups --- Quick fix needed please!!!

Hello,
My screen decided to crack for no real reason. Honest.
So o2 being the lovely people they are are sending me a new phone (exec).
It arrives tomorrow and I have to send my broken one back.
Quick question needing a quick fix (ie next hour or so...?!?!):
I would like to save / download my texts before sending the phone back. Now I know there have been loads of posts like this, but I am at work and simply do not have the time to trawl through the posts to find the answers. :roll:
Can anyone take 5 mins to tell me where I can find a simple to use, free program that can save my texts? Please???
Thanks
HPJ
try spb backup. I use this and THINK it does text messages.
or copy each text message to notepad
orsend each text message to a friends phone
or try sprite backup
I had same problem and for me SPB didn't work correctly Soo, I'm not impressed with SPB.
It can backup texts and all the rest, but have some problems restoring them ;(
I've tried 4 different backups
Good luck!
Cheers!
Chris
Hi,
Sprite have just released a new version of their software (v5.1) and solves alot of issues with wm5.
Might help.
Matt
Spb Backup (latest version 1.1.2) works perfectly for me - no problem whatsovere backing up and restoring sms text messages. emails, etc.
Thanks everyone I'll get onto it!
got my new qtec 9000 but it seems slower than my XDA exec, whats up with that????
anyway is there a way to backup everything!!!
so say i need to hard reset i can just load my backup and it will put all my progs, reg hacks etc settings all back to the way it was before the hardreset? without having to do any reinstalling etc????
I know it's probably too late by now but just in case...
You could use Jeyo Mobile Extender which is an add-on for Outlook - this will sync all your SMS messages into Outlook - it's on the top of my list for software to buy in the future the demo is fully functional for 14 days i think and should do exactly what you want.
Cheers,
Smiffy.
krismc
SPB does this perfectly, and i have had any problem with its usage, even during beta. others prefer sprite... whatever turns you on.
for SPB, yes, you can do a full back up, completely hard reset your device, and do a full restore and walla back to original condition, only question is, why did you hard reset it if you want it back to original condition.
so i have created:
1. virgin device - settings, tweaks, hacks and over bare bones device, with absolute essential software installed, registered and licensed such as Resco, SPB backup and other mission criticals.
2. perfect device - all desirable applications, settings, folder and software preferences, licensed, registered and running, but no active sync
3. two backups automated per week so that if i accidentally drop it, or do something stupid like dodgy software, I have a choice of 4 restore points (last two backups, perfect or virgin) depending on what i want.
hope it helps.
great info mte!
i need a backup coz my first xda exec had to be returned due to dead cam light, my current qtec one wont active sync until iv done a hard reset so m guessing its not liking something iv done, plus thats going back as iv noticed the camera has around 30 dead pixels.
hwever if i make a bacup of my device now will it also take the problems with it? ie the activ sync problem?
oh and i ant decide wether i like the silver or black qtec 9000 whats ur guys thoughts? currently on a black one with red keyboard leds
oh and if u aint noticed iv got a brand new imate k jam for sale incase anyones interested

I am not 100 percent postive but I don't think it is my settings. I have my htc home doing the same and also want it changed to normal time but the reason I thought it was not my cab is that I do not have the 24 hr setup on the top taskbar so I can't see any cooralation but anything is possible..also I have noticed the time sometimes is not the same....meaning htc home is off by a min....I read somewhere that the time was off by exact hours do to timezone setting issue but I hve just installed htc home and haven't played with it enouhh yet...also all the threads on htc home SUCK....they are filled with garbage flamings and worthless ques asked 8 mil times over and over so I have not gone through 19 pages of the thread yet.

MSN/Live Messenger

My operator (Orange UK) has decided not to include live messenger in their ROM. Is that something I can install easily afterward? How would I go about doing this? Do I need to app unlock the phone first? I don't have much experience in installing apps on WM6 so any help appreciated.
Thanks
Hey, i work for Orange and have a touch dual also. Im pretty disapointed that the 'Windows Live' services are missing from the dual, but are present on the Touch.
I was referred by a colleague in the web support call centre that he downloaded the file from a link on this site. (Thats why im here) He found it in the TyTn II forum, but the file is compatible on any Mobile 6 platform... if i find it, i shall post the link for you (if its allowed)
hey, thanks for that. It is a bit of a shame how they removed it from this phone.
As you work for orange, do you know if they are planning to introduce any data tariffs like web n walk? I wouldn't mind paying a tenner extra a month if I could get 1GB of data anytime..

Hey! No worries.. im having problems wading through 178 tyTn II pages... the search feature is utterly useless.
Orange has something called 'Anytime internet' on PAYM. Its £8 per month, and inclused 30MB iirc. When it first launced (back in August) it was unlimited usage upto 1GB.
The Wireless Data Card for Laptops tariffs have just been updated to compete with 3's cheap plans, but i hope the new data plans for handsets happens soon.
Although, i get mine all free
I'm on the £8 a month tarriff, but to be honest 30MB doesn't really cut it compared to Tmobile and 3's tariffs.
Would you mind keeping us posted of when you think these tariffs might be upgraded for handsets? You're lucky you get all yours for free!
Now back to MSN Messenger - i've got a feeling we may not be able to install it even if we wanted to ask the phone might be 'app locked', and as far as I know no ones got a hack for that yet.. or I could be wrong..
I found the application on this forum, just tested it and it works on my Orange Touch Dual!
in1234, i will keep you posted.

3. Disconnect the device and navigate to your documents.
