Freeware
Hello, this is the ppc freeware sit that i used to visit, I short from most: www.pdagold.com, www.freewareppc.com, www.pocketpcfreeware.com
I download so... many apps from there. for net-brow i used PIEPlus, coz opera didn't release for WM , Hope that will help you a little... :wink:
if you by drag'n'drop mean from your pc to your device then use explore device in activesync
ah.... thanks.. didnt realise there was an explore... cheers
Late Post
Sorry may be a little late, but have you try NetFront 3.2?
it faster and i think best web browser ever....
anyone know whether MS Voice Command can work on XDA IIi ?
version 1.1 hang when running after installed.
maybe voice commander 1.5 fix this ?
it should be compatible with all 2003 devices

Opera have no intention on writing a browser for Windows Pocket PC.
They will however be relasing a version for Windows Mobile 2005, as the OS will be the same on both Pocket PC and Smartphone, so giving a sizable target market.
but the java opera version works ok on pocketpc's

but it being a java miplet would prob mean it's not the fastest thing
I'm lookin to take screenshots off my Mini S to write a review of the software and the phone for my friends.
Is there a program (preferably free) that can do this?
Thanks
Jaxx
You can try this:
Try too: GetPDAscreen.exe
You can search at google; it is freeware and works fine.
You can also use the windows mobile powertoys... They are somewhere on ms dot com for download...
hi, i am using IE right now since opera has expiered and right now i need to choose a web browser. can u people recomand/suggest good browser. the best would be free
can u just tell what u are using and give like where u got it.
cheers, matt
Do you good to read this thread started by me http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44177
Now mainly use Opera mini (java app) because its small and fast and compresses web pages so less download costs, and ftx browser which is a pie bolt on but faster, with tabs and does not have that annoying keyboard pop-up problem
Cheers
Hi everyone,
Hum, i'm looking for a browser for my elf, but i couldn't find any that didn't remake the page to a smartphone-type.
Anyone knows a browser that keeps the pages like a desktop pc?

This is a brand new

try opera mini,works well for me. free and very easy to use. finger movement and zoom also can take over pie for downloads
Picsel Browser
hey wuub:
My picsel browser just seems slow all of the time. I've had a lot better luck with PIE on speed.
I used picsel for a while, until i found opera mini 4. It is much faster than picsel. It keeps your page in the desktop-like layout, but also formats the text so that it is readable (without having to pan around) when zommed in.
opera mini 4 is my suggestion, with esmertec jbed as your midlet manager
Hey Sturatt:
thnx for the info. Does Opera mini work well on the ppc's? I was looking at Opera's website & it looked like Opera Mobile was more for wm6 (but costs money) & Opera mini was more for the smartphones (and was free). PIE just doesn't do well for me but picsel really seems slow compared to PIE.
i have a mogul (ppc6800) and opera mini works great.
just install jbed, then go to www.operamini.com on your phone's IE, navigate to the opera mini 4 page and download (by default it goes to opera mini 3, you have to select a link to get to opera mini 4).

Yes, Picsel IS slow - and has tons of other problems (low Web standards compliance, for example). I don't really recommend it. Opera Mini 4 is far better - in my opinion, of course.
I have now got a Touch HD on Orange.
Can anyone give me a quick top 5 of things I should be downloading to make this better?
Software, Apps, Games.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Total commander
Clean Ram
HD tweak
Pocket artist --> Photoshop on windows mobile (not free)
Music id (not free)
nebo pad
pocket rar
Wlan button --> activate and desactive wifi with one click
mocha ftp server --> to make ftp server to share file between pc and htc without cable
Game : Xtrack

Hey mate, my advice would be to read up on the dummies guide to flashing roms: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377, and start FLASHING, it can take a bit of getting used to at first but definately worth persevering with.
I use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524032, you can see screenshots of the rom itself in post #2
Have a good read through the threads first but there are always plenty of members who are willing to help.
Good luck!
Thanks, I'll give these a go, hopefully I'm successful!!

Well, I guess it depends on what you like to do with it.
Here's a list of the things I use on mine.
CoPilot 8 for SatNav (not free)
Coreplayer (not free) for play back of movies and tv
CleanRAM - frees up memory that apps have left unavailable for Windows, saves rebooting.
myPlayer - for streaming TV, but more importantly for me, I can download programs from BBC iPlayer direct to the phone.
Internet Explorer - this is installed by default, but I tweaked the settings to make it pretend to be a Nokia phone, this is so I can watch Sky Sports using the Vodafone service. On a HSDPA connection, it is not bad at all for £5 per month
Nimbuzz - instant messenger, I have used this and Fring, which allow you to be connected to Skype, MSN, Yahoo Messenger, GoogleTalk (and theoretically Facebook and Twitter)
Midomi - Music Id to "name that tune" - not used very often, but pretty cool
when I do
Google Maps - when you need satellite or street view.
G-Watch - nice stopwatch and countdown timer
HD Soft Reset - allows you to reboot easily
HD Tweak - let's you tweak various settings
Run GPS - Go for a run or on your bike, it will track your journey and create file you can then upload to various services which will map your journey.
If you get a heart rate monitor it can monitor and chart that.
Whilst you are running it can announce your progress via the headphones, telling you various information including how fast you are , whether you have deviated from your journey, or even if you are running slower/faster than a previous journey.
Remotely accessing a PC:
VNC
LogMeIn
RemoteDesktop
These all work and may suit your needs
MyMobiler, allows you to use your windows keyboard and mouse to control the phone. So for IM, it is much quicker to type on a full size keyboard.
It is a little laggy sometimes, and I believe there is a HTC equivalent, but I haven't tried it.
I did try S2U2 - Slide to Unlock, but for me it seemed to kill the machine and everything ran very slowly.
I have tried some of the other browsers, like
Skyfire and Fennec but Opera still wins for me.
Outlook push email with Google Mail works well for me, not sure it is quite as instant always as Google would have me believe, but fast enough for my needs, and having it automatically deliver my mail to my phone means I can review them on the tube.
I also use the FM Radio quite a bit too.
Hope this helps.
