Secure Pocket Phone project

Hi,
I send my first W2003SE application.
This is a free application (it's a beta version written in c#, and requires .NET CF) and is capable to detect a change in the phone owner identity via the next comprobations:
- The user can be configure a list of preferred SIM Cards
If the inserted SIM card is not any of the owner preferred sims the application send's a sms to a configured phone (including a configured text and the SIM identifier of the inserted card)
[Obviously, the application sends the message without prompt for user msessage send confirmation and not stores the sms at the outlook tray's]
[obviously, if the new user inserted sim is a prepay sim and the credit was 0, none sms is sended]
Additionally, the application show's (if configured) a balloon notification.
- The application test (if configured) the value of the Owner identity and if changed sends a sms and / or shows a notification...
Please, test and send me your comments...
regards

Also tested it for WM05?

Hi, sounds similar to another program on this forum. What happens if the user performs a hard reset? In any event I will give it a go soon.

hello,
1) i have showed 2 threads in this forum about this problem.
one works with owner data but no with sim data, and another works with the sim, but the user is obly to store a special number at the sim ownered numbers list (i don't have tested any).
this application works with owner user data and stores the valid sim identifiers in a configuration file.
2) in my opinion, the correct usage is:
a) install the application
b) c9nfigure settings
c) copy the application and the configuration file at the rom
in this case, a hard reset is not a problem, ok ?

Seems to be working on my xda2i - no slow down of unit and no lock-ups tho only second day of use.
Thank you Bartito

Sorry but doesn't work on my MDA Vario.
First I had to install OpenNet Cab and after that I got an error that it couldn't load some NotifyIcon.
I was in a hurry so I didn't check that good, I already uninstalled the program but I will sure will try a new update, the idea is real good

HIDE / SHOW ExtROM on HTC TyTN (Registry Tweak)

Hide/Show Hidden ROM (at least works on my TyTN - German ROM)
SHOWN:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\EXT_FLASHDRV] "Bootphase"=dword:00000002
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV] "MountHidden"=dword:00000000
HIDDEN:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\EXT_FLASHDRV] "Bootphase"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV] "MountHidden"=dword:00000001

For me this was the default:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\EXT_FLASHDRV] "Bootphase"=dword:00000002
So, I only had to change this from 1 to 0:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV] "MountHidden"=dword:00000000
Now I can see the extended rom, my device is an HTC TyTN WWE, I will post the ExtROM to FTP in a while.
I also have updated the wiki page with your hack:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unhide_Extrom
Thanks!

GREAT !
Now we still need 2 very important Registry Hacks (or missing links to get them work):
1. A hack for presenting a differentiation between GPRS/EDGE and UMTS/HSDPA
2. A hack for invoking the EngineeringTest Mode
I've been unable so far to get that working on the Hermes platform. Keep trying.

Heh, youre busy one.
I added a registry tweak to change the titlebar clock to an annalog one, if someone is interested.
Hopefully we can keep the wiki growing and useful.

My default setup was also:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\EXT_FLASHDRV] "Bootphase"=dword:00000002
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV] "MountHidden"=dword:00000001
So I just changed to:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV] "MountHidden"=dword:00000000
and did a soft reset. The extended rom then appeared but it was still write protected. How do I get rid of the write protection?
LJ

Use the cab file in the wiki, it unlocks and unhides ExtROM.

After using the cab fille and/or making the tweaks myself, and the are the same as described as above, the result is that I can see the ext. rom, but it is still write protected. I can't delete any file or write a file to the ext. rom. I've got a Tytn WWE. What is the problem, or better: what is the solution???

Should be wrtitable using this cab:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HERMES_MountExtROM.CAB
If it's not, then try to hard reset and then use the cab without messing with registry keys before.

Problem with Extended ROM
I have tried all the methods in the wiki and also all the reg. edit trick but I still can't see my extended ROM. When I run the cab to Mount Extended ROM it crashes my TyTN. Locks it up befor making it to the windows screen. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this or tell me where to look? I was going to mess around with bootloader but I am not that computer savy.

hard reset and install the unhider&unlcoker cab file. it should work after hard reset.

Have tried to Hard Reset my Taiwanese CHT9000 and only apply the HERMES_MountExtROM.CAB tweak, now can see the Extend ROM, but still cannot "unprotect" the ROM. Cannot make it writable. Any other methods? Like modifying the registry? Thanks a lot in advance!!

On my Vario 2, when I'm using 3G (and therefore, HSDPA) the [3G] icon is shown in the top bar (and when it connects a small connecting icon with the moving arrows and 3G in it is diplayed, next to the square 3G indicator) - when it drops back to GPRS, it just changes to [G].
Does yours not do this?

Unsure whether it works myself, as I've not tried it yet, but I'd put (a small amount of) money on it that it works

Hi Chris, Thanks for your reply!!
Unfortunately, my device is still un-protectable after following the whole process. And the registry settings I have checked are exactly the same as the described. The Extended_ROM directory is still write-protected. Couldn't add or delete files in it.
Maybe I am the unlucky one that couldn't change the extended ROM at all...

Since the digital signature security autentification for CABs in ExtROM is on by default, putting in any CAB file that is either not digitally signed, or loses its authenticity because it was modified will not be installed during the Customization phase after a hard reset.
Any ideas how to solve this problen on TyTN?
There was the soluton for the Universal devices wiht the Default_Signed_DisabledSecurity.CAB. This CAB has the right signature for Universal, but it dosn’t work on TyTN.

From this MSDN discussion about Windows Mobile 5 code signing,
"Looks like you won't have to sign the cab if wceload.exe isn't used to install it. Although if it is used to install the cab file you will need to sign it."

A possible gap? If someone could come up with a third party CAB installer that could be used during customisation, maybe it could bypass the official CAB installation procedure (and therefore the signed certificate verification) entirely? Just a thought.

For Universal this problem i think was decided here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33638&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=150) with the help of Default_Signed_DisableSecurity.CAB. But this CAB not work on my TyTN. I think it because of wrong digital sign.

HTC Home Today Plugin

Hi,
I’m trying to make the HTC Home Today plug-in on WM5 to work. With many try and a lot of will I was unsuccessful because ROM upgrade was not an option.
After many hours and days, I found out that there is an error when doing installation from the cab file. I was able to intercept the error. I found out that the HTCHome.dll doesn’t register on WM5.
I think there is maybe a reference in the DLL that looks to see witch version of windows mobile it’s on, and if the reference is ok then the file get registered, if not it doesn’t and fails to register.
Here I’m boys and girls, I need good soul that can help us (I say us because there is others that is dreaming) to get a workaround!
I’m at my limit knowledge to hack this DLL that’s why I writing this today.
Regards,
My phone is a HTC TITAN (P4000) with WM5
PS: the problem is not the phone model but the OS version…
Requirements to have this pluging working:
Windows Mobile 6 ( PocketPc).
HTC HomePlug: Today screen plug-in (Displaying Time/messaging notifications/Launcher), allowing quick changes of various options, such as weather, missed calls, sms/email notifications, time/alarm changing & program launcher.
Link to the current file:

http://rapidshare.com/files/36863085/HTC_Touch_Home_Plugin.cab

I didn't have time to look at this and don't know when or if at all I get the time, but if the problem is with the registry the solution should be easy:
Get a reg editor, got to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items and manually create a key for the plugin. Check to see how other plugins are listed there and you will know what values to create (key name is what you see in the settings menu).
Other possibility is that the DLL is compiled with WM 6 SDK. Though I have not made many attempts with this it seems files compiled this way are not recognized as valid by earlier OS version.
This might be resolved by tweaking the DLL header.

Thank for the reply!
YES i have done the registery edition in the today items and added the accorded strigs.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\ HTC Home]
"Enabled"=dword:1
"DLL"="\\Windows\\HTCHome.dll"
"Order"=dword:0
"Flags"=dword:0
"Selectability"=dword:2
"Type"=dword:5
"Options"=dword:0
I think you have a good point with the DLL heathers.

official wm6 dopod network wizard problem error (workaround)

For all those who has problems with the new dopod wm6 network error you can now copy these files into your windows folder it will ask to overwrite select yes to all and then you can reset (optional) go into settings again and you will see another network icon which can be used for all.
You can use total commander which i think is the best file explorer

This isnt working for me, I copyed them to the windows folder, but it didnt ask me to overwrite anything, no change in settings, I dont suppose you know what the manual settings should be, I thought I had found them on this site, but I think it was for Germany, it didnt connect anyway.
thanks in advance

Does this only apply to European network providers or Worldwide?

You may have to edit this file in \windows : HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml
0409 (english) is your language code, other languages have different codes.
Ensure that your city (and corresponding codes, available from accuweather website) is in the list.

Hi,
As this topic is here, let me ask my trouble here;
I have WM6.5 w/ Manila2D, I have lost my selected cities from weather widget in Manila.
I can not add any city, even if all city lists exists and I am able to select. But it does not display weather widget screen..
This also happened before when I have had another Rom and Softreset is not useful at all..
Anyone has such trouble?
Anyone has resolution?

Unfortunatelly, dealing (renaming, deleting, moving) with such file is impossible although while TFlo is not active..
Tried w/ Resco and extended File explorer (not seeing/showing), Total commander sees but not executes any command except copying..
Doing thru laptop with vista also sucks due to not showing windows files..

I'm not sure why.. but I have renamed mine. The file should not be protected. It's not in ROM.
Try this.. disable TF ->> use TC, properties - uncheck "system" - rename.

It is Rom file..
Not possible to uncheck any box overthere..
Not possible to handle..

Hi all
Same problem here!
Here is what I have done so far
1. Copied HH_409 bla bla file to pc.
2. Edited file with correct data from accuweather.
3. Using total comander removed the read only state from the original file in /windows directory.
4. replaced standard 409 with my version.
5. soft reset
and........ I can choose the cities from the list now but they will not update.
So now I am stuck
if any of you (azahidi ;-) have managed to crack this problem please help me get further.
If you want to try one of my cities to ensure that it is not me doing it wrong here is the line from the xml for one city
Code:
<city name="Newquay, UK" loca="EUR|UK|UK125|Newquay" land="United Kingdom"/>

I am not sure why, but I can add and update any city in the list, including many in the UK (e.g. Newbury, newport, newham, newcastle-under-lyme but unfortunately newquay is not). I'll try to add newquay in xml file and see what happens.. I'll post the result later.
