Hello, recently I have been trying to get the Direct3D Mobile capabilites of the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 working on my german T-Mobile MDA-Pro (HTC Universal).
I have tested some applications that use this feature (such as Pocket Jongg 3D ). But they all throw an exception (Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.DriverUnsupportedException)
A lot of users reprorted the same problem (see msdn forum) this seem to include all german branded HTC Universal not just T-Mobile:
The reason for this exception seems to be clear: The direct3d-drivers that come with those devices is not capable of doing direct3d !!!! Now is there a proven way to exchange those drivers? Or another way to make Direct3D Mobile run on an HTC Universal ? Is there anyone with a german HTC Universal that got Direct3D Mobile running ?
Here is another usefull resource.
Now it looks like that my MDA-Pro has none of those drivers listed there, instead I find two dlls:
d3dm.dll <--- size: 50,3 kbyte (seems to be just a dummy file)
D3DMXSc50PB.dll
I have written a little tool that detects the direct3d capabilites of your windows mobile 5 device: http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=174765
It looks like that german HTC Universals do support direct3d mobile, but most games just need some special capabilities that the drivers shipped with all german HTC Universals do not support.
If I only new how to correctly exchange the drivers .....

Hi folks, I've trawled this forum, google, O2's sites, everywhere but the closest I've got to accessing the camera is either:
1) Windows Mobile 2005's Camera API
2) rumours of a DLL available under NDA from HTC
I'm using eVB to develop a mini app and need to be able to get JPEG files from the camera.
(I'm assuming the latest XDAii's are still running WM2003, is that right?)
thanks in advance!
Hi all... does anyone know about T-Mobile UK, and if they about to release upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.0?
My current Windows is way too slow, a friend upgraded his same phone with a 6.0 version he found on the net (illegal version I guess) but it looks fantastic, and is way faster than the previous.
Thanks!
I work for TMUK & have checked this (as I have a vario II myself!). There are no plans to release an official WM6 upgrade, the focus is on the new WM6 devices (touch & vario 3).
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

there is what appears to be a beta tmobile wm6 rom about (you can find links to it in the Hermes Mobile 6 forum), which is very good indeed. Apparently tmo aren't going to release it though, but tmo uk's whole treatment of htc devices seems to be a bit random anyway, so you never know.
more...
I went to the T-mobile store (Uk) and asked about the upgrade. He said should be no problem downloading WM6 from Windows website, and should not worry with warranty as Im already over the 12 month warranty period. Ive been everywhere on Microsoft's website, but cant find any download! (???) Besides would that cause probs as the phone is locked to T-Mobile?
Anyone help here, please. Im not an expert (Im bit fed up to how slow WM5 compared having a 400mhz processor!)
you could either look on here for the htc original hermes rom, the t-mobile test rom, they are both for wm6, infact any rom in the hermes forum works superbly.
Sorry to ask stuipid questions, but what bennifits will i see if i upgrade to WM6 from WM5? My hermes seems to be running pretty well with WM5 but maybe im missing something.
Thanks
There's a whole forum for WM6 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=355 )discussion and tons of info to cover all of the above. If you want to know about the different ROm's pluses, minuses etc read the stickies. Still, why anyone would want a TMo ROM is beyond me, loads of extra stuff you never use and a dial pad in PINK...
wm6, no real difference
i just thought I would add to this thread and say that there arent any real major differences in windows mobile 5 & 6, the email is the only big advantage in that outlook can display html messages but, in good old microsoft design, you have to upgrade the server side of things (ie, exchange 2003 to exchange 2007).
Mail2web (which i use for push email) only uses exchange 2003 so you still get your emails in plain text.
Microsoft did a good job of dressing up windows mobile 6 as something its not but, having said that the hermes and its software beats sloppy nokia's and sony ericssons hands down!
like to ask whether applications for diamond/pro/HD suitable for use in touch cruise?
any sites got free applications for touch cruise?
i need gprs data counter to prevent me from using over limit.
thx
This phone is a windows mobile (6.1) phone. It is compatible with any windows mobile software. You can look in this forum and elsewhere on the internet, there are plenty of compatible softwares.
There are however some ROM, user interface which are specifically related to one phone and may not be compatible with another. Usually it is indicated as a specific phone software.
thx
lets say if i installed a .cab file to iolite, i realised it's for diamond/pro/HD. Will it hang/corrupt my iolite?
i found some applications but im not sure whether i can use it on iolite. I only afraid crash/hang/corrupt it if i have installed a wrong .cab
*sorry for so many questions..im a new WMuser, my iolite will only arrive nxt week*
the iolite is QVGA, if the software have VGA and QVGA version, you have to choose QVGA...
Hi,
Is it possible to install WM6.5 onto the Tropy instead of the present version 7?
My company does not support its email exchange software for WM7 and I do not want to get the "outdated" HTC HD2. (Android or Symbian are also not supported ) Do you think it is possible to install WM6.5 until support for the new windows will be available?
Not possible... get the HD2.
HD2 does not work on Verizon's network. I personally need something that can run windows native apps and works on Verizon's network and has a better processor than Imagio.
Hello my friends,
Like you know, Opera Mini6.5 has been released a few day :
http://www.operamini.com/mobile/download/versions/
This version use Java bu, with these, we can having a new Browser that works with the new web stadard 'css3, html5,etc....)
I have tried to install and run on my HD2 with Java FX, and i have an error (cannot etablish Internet connection)
A friend, wh have a TG01 can run this browser with JavafX whitout probleme.
I have tried on Several rom, like Dutty, Ultrashot, and same problem.
Anyone have tried ?
Thanks a lot,
Best regards,
Nixeus
Would this not have to go to the HD2 forum and discuss there about JVM that may work on the HD2? Java FX is just one from Oracle - is there no other JVM that was delivered with the HD2 (usually it was the Esmertec JBed)?
Mind that some JVM do not utilize the Active Sync Connection of the device. They connect via radio access only - so if your device is connected to AS the access will not work.
First, some other WM6/6.x phone have the same problem.
Secondly, i have tested with Esmertec Jbed, and i have an exception at launch
Opera mini 6.5 (just installed) works for me on a Tornado with JBed 20080813.2.1 (aka JBed Rose as it came from the S740).
Usually nobody cares about JVM on WM anymore (who ever did anyway?).
Did any older version of Opera Mini work on that setup?
Does any other application with network access work on that setup?
The basic problem here is to make the JVM work right on the device - there is nothing HW or ROM (so XIP, OEM or SYS) related.
works fine on my blackstone with Sun Java FX.
you just need to set up correctly the internet connection on java before launching
Works fine on my HTC Diamond US with Esmertec JBed 20090416.5.1.
