WordNetCE

Hi All,
Well I've kicked off my first windows mobile project with a progam I call "WordNetCE". If anyone is familiar with Princeton University's program called WordNet you will know you can use it as a brilliant dictionary/thesaurus, amongst other things that are beyond a normal human's intelligence.
One thing I've found lacking for Pocket PC is a decent free dictionary/thesaurus, so I've set out to make one based upon WordNet which is free to distribute from Princeton. A person named Malcolm Crowe did the original .NET port for WordNet 1.6, so I modified it to work with the new WordNet 2.0 dictionary, as well as with the Pocket PC platform (it wasn't all copy & paste...).
It's free to download from http://www.ebswift.com/PocketPC/WordNet/.
Note though that I have only just barely kicked this project off, but the dictionary side of things is operating. You will find much of the other functionality isn't working, but will come online soon.
Please check it out and start giving me some feedback. Thanks.

Just fixed up a lot more of the functionality - it's more useable compared to what it was before if anyone had a chance to look. A couple of buttons are still not complete, as with most of the main menu, but it can do about 20 times more than what it could this morning.

Look very promising!
Just one question: Is it mandatory to store the WordNet database onto a storage card, or can I store it on internal RAM too?

At the moment it's mandatory, but there's no reason why I can't add an option. Not many people will be able to use main memory because the database is ~over~ 30 meg!

I wonder why? I'm using the T-Mobile 4.01.16 ROM on an XDA 1 and installed the CAB with no problems. Are you using an XDA 2? I'm not sure if there's any difference with the CAB installers between XDA1/2, or maybe there's corruption in the download file, I'll check tomorrow. VS.NET outputs CAB's for all the difference PPC processors, so I'll put them up ASAP to cover other devices than the XDA1.
Thanks for the feedback

Here's a screenshot that's also on the website :

I have the same problem, ERROR="\storage card\wordnetce_ppc[1].arm.cab" is not a valid Windows CE Setup file. I look forward to your fix. Thanks.

I'm really sorry about that, my download algorithm had a response.end, so a "Thread Aborted" was being tagged onto any download. Changing that to Response.Flush seems to have fixed it, at least for that cab file.
Please give it another go, I do appologise for coming up with such a thread with a screwed download.

Hey man, no appologies needed. Great work, thanks for the great freeware. It worked great.

Thanks Iggy. Bear with me for a few minutes if there's any problem with the download, I'm just writing some referrer protection into downloads. It won't take long.
===OK, the referrer protection is finished and it's all working again...

I just uploaded a version I call 0.5 because it's 0.5% finished. Compared to the version since I posted last in this thread there's some major bugfixes; the adjective and adverb menus now correctly show, and there's versions for different processors.

sorry ebswift, the download links don't seem to work, and once you have fixed them what is the difference between arm & arm4 (xda ii maybe). let me know when it is fixed.

The download is now fixed ~again~...
I already responded to Iggy, but just so the group knows, ARMV4 is the one that seems to be uploaded to my device during debug sessions, so I can safely say that ARMV4 is somehow newer than ARM. So I guess anything XDA1 or upwards can use ARMV4. I have had both working on my XDA1 and I can't see any difference in operation, although I haven't tested for performance.

Nice job brother. Now works perfectly

Well I added the little convenience of the keypad popping up automatically, and popping away on lost focus. There's also a couple more menu items in operation. It's really not far away from working completely, most of the technical stuff is out of the way.

Just downloaded and tried, excellent work. Thanks for setting up the keyboard, makes it a lot easier. Looking forward to the final version, but so far excellent.

I just upgraded to 0.53 so the history works (or should work).
I'm really happy the way this project is going.

All features operating
I have just uploaded WordNetCE .99 with ALL features now operating. Please update to that version and let me know if there's any bugs. Thanks!

For those of you who tried that latest download and found it didn't work, it is now patched, you should be able to get it up and running now.

TOMTOM3 Speed Camera Warning

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is any freeware version of speed camera warning software for the UK, compatible with TOMTOM3. I know its a longshot but what the hell!
Anyway if not, what is the cheapest/best one available.
Your experiences please.
Thanks

Hi,
This one works fine.

Excellent! Thanks . But where do I get the Camera POI's for the UK from??

Not tried it until now, but i'm nearly 100% sure, that they are available via synchronisation. It workes fine for me. You can not download them manualy and install them to your device. You have to synchronize the,. So you're able to keep them easy uptodate.
Try it out. It's for free.
Stefan

Are you saying that download comes with them?? Ie the UK ones?

Try www.pocketgps.co.uk, click on speed cameras on the left and you'll get to a database of all UK cameras. I use it with POIWarner, which was very cheap and very good

Anyone know where you can get free POI's from? I know, I'm a cheapskate.
Sorry, Gotta feed the kids!

I NEED to do this...
Don't speed, so you don't need a warner ;-)
I know, this help's a lot.

I completely agree with you.
I have been driving for 10 years. No points and no collisions! Thank God!
However, i frequently have to drive late at night , when the roads are empty. Sometimes I may go 35 when the speed is 30!
A warning system would be good!

Thanks. How Extensive is their database?

Pretty good i think (personally). I used to have a snooper S6-r neo and pay for the updates and that wasn't better!

We have a little over 3000 camera sites plus red light cameras and mobile locations.
Unlike the majority of other Safety Camera databases we still maintain a human input to weed out duplicates and erronous submissions.
The actual number of camera locations in the UK has never been revealed, it was rumoured to be 5000 but I'm reliably told that it's nearer 4000 physival locations with mobile sites making up the remainder.

Freelockuk Thanks for that .
Griffog, sorry, its probably my fault for raising this post. Unfortunately I am not a moderator and hence cannot remove it ,thought I already found it and did download it from your website yesterday.
While you are here... :wink: On the site it says,
"Email us either your OV2 file or ASC file and we will work out which cameras we don't have and which cameras we do have. Please be careful when adding cameras not to add false ones"
How do I actually update the ov2 file. I am running TT3 with Checkpoint.
There is a new Truvelo round the corner from me and would like to add it in the database.

the document works fine for me, but only with the Adobe Reader, Foxit Reader just displays empty pages, maybe you should try the adobe reader as well.

No, it's OK in Foxit.
The clue is that the Wiki link is a Rapidshare address - so trying to download it directly without seeing the Rapidshare screen and the "wait 70 seconds" routine just produces a corrupted short-circuit.
I'm using Nitro PDF Download in Firefox. I had to disable Nitro to reach the Rapidshare screen.

wifi antenna?
Hi! I had seen in the service manual that near at the left of the GPS antenna conector (on the MB and without access from the outside) there is another connector that looks like an U.FL (the one that is in most of the laptop's wifi internal cards) so...
can be it??
can we use an external antenna to gain better reception? o even better, to conect the phote through a wifi amplifier!! ... forget about thge amplifier

Hey Xda!!!
I have decided to make a cab for those of us who have T-Mobile and woudn't
mind checking on our account status now and again.
I've just started to venture in to the world of the custom roms for the Rodium
and noticed they did not have this little handy app.... so with out any further ado this is for yoU
Version: My_Account 1_0_0_3
I will update when newer comes out
ps: This has only been tried and tested on Touch-IT Rhodium 6.5-23053
so please let me know if you are having any issue with this app on any other ROM
EDIT:for now this is only for US T-mobile customers
Disclaimer:

Thank you so much! I've been looking for this forever, never found one that works. This one works perfectly, thank you again.
edit: For the record, I'm using Miri's 3.0 version of his Manila 2.1 ROM.

The app showed up but it was unable to retrieve any info about acct.

thanks

@humble
I've don't think there's a T-Mobile UK ROM at the moment - you can only buy the TP2 on T-Mobile through a 3rd-party company right now as T-Mobile don't sell it over here yet.
Many thanks for looking into it, I'd really appreciate a UK version.

I installed your my account cab and it reads "Unable to retrieve account info".
I uninstalled, soft reset and reinstalled it to try again but it does not work
I can't think of anything why it would not work.
Thinking........
Does the My Account program use the SIM card to call T-Mobile? Maybe something is missing from my SIM.....like a number??? My SIM card has the #646# (Check my minutes) and (check text usage)... Does the My Account use that?
Thanks for your time and help! I just wished it would work.

No problem,
One way to find out.. If its your SIM or not... Flash to another ROM and see if MyAccount works.. Use any one, mine or his there basically the same(i extracted mines from the dump of my phone).... Just my taxi was a little faster
