Strange, it worked with me just great - see my review & tutorial of the title, I've also posted some MSN screenshots.
Try switching to the old WM5 AS networking mode if, for example, it's a firewall issue.
managed to get it working sir, reinstalled coolcam once had installed the C++ thing from MS....works great...excellent
may I know what C++ you've installed on the PC in order for Skype or Yahoo Messenger to recognise coolcam in webcam setting? I'm able to see the webcam stream with the CoolCameraXP not able to select coolcam as webcam in Skype and Yahoo msg.

which C++ from MS did u install? i am also trying to use my TyTn as a webcam on msn messenger, but so far, no luck.
any help would be appreciated!
bump for a response
whoops sorry its been a while since i looked at this thread!
PM me next time people as i dont always look in here. I looked on the microsoft website and found the MS VC++ 2005 Redistributable download. I believe this is what i used as I had to check and see what was in my Add/Remove programs on my PC, this is the thing i used i believe.
Good luck people.
so, forgive me if i'm missing something, is this only for using your device as a webcam whilst connected to your pc, or for using mobile skype or wlm?
i really can't see the point of it if it's only for desktop machines.

you access the front cam either using coolcam on the device or via activesync (works over BT/wifi/usb).
Its not to enable the front cam for skype etc..

The first link on this page is for the trial, which only runs for a minute at a time. I use this software, as it gives me a wireless webcam with built in microphone.
So, does logmein.com work on your hermes.
On mine it does not and i find that annoying.
Can someone help witch a solutions..
Your help would be very appreciated.. Tanks in advance.

logmein works on all wm phones, eespecially my 8525.
I have mine set to widescreen at home, and it looks great w/my rectangular screen (as opposed to treo).
Where are you having a problem?
i use realVNC on my home pc and vnc ppc viewer on my 8525... its free and works great!

If you want to stick strictly with VNC, go for the new PT Pocket Office.
BTW, I'll publish a BIG roundup & article of all these issues in the near future.

What does exactly happen? When does it refuse to run? Please elaborate - I know everything about all these services and remote access.
i seem to remember reading somewhere that it only works with an unmodified pocket internet explorer. It certainly works on my vario II.

It's indeed faster than other free VNC viewers but still consumes about 3 times more bandwidth than commercial solutions.

bandwidth for me isnt a concern, unlimited data plan plus a 6megx768k dsl line into my house... but do commercial solutions offer the same amount of control as VNC? just curious cause i do run a private FTP server out of my house and like the ability of total remote control over my pc when i am away... i believe i tried logmein.com about 4-5 months ago and dumped it, dont remember why, maybe cause i had to pay, but thats when i found a beta ppc version of RealVNC and have used that ever since.

PT offers built-in file transfer in the latest Pocket Office version and the author also promises clipboard synchronization. It's also much faster and consumes about 3 times less bandwidth.
Hopefully, I'll be able to publish my roundup of all remote access solutions the day after tomorrow - I'm still trying to hack the H/PC .NET RDC client (it's WAY more advanced than the native one on the Pocket PC) to the PPC.

What's exactly the problem? Do NOT trey to use it with RealVNC servers - it won't work. Use PTeSVNC instead.
Also, the config options are a bit overwhelming at first - I'll, of course, elaborate a LOT on them in my forthcoming roundup.

it doesnt seem to like my dynamic DNS address, tried it with and without the port # but still errors, doesnt even attempt to look for it
First things first, I'm not new to the forum...and I apologize for creating a thread for this!
So I was in the iTunes app store for my iPod Touch and I came across this ultimately cool app: Air Sharing
http://www.avatron.com/products/
This program lets you use the iPhone/iPod Touch as a virtual drive, available with pw protection.
Do any of you know if theres something like this for Windows Mobile Phones? Or if someone is interested in developing something like this?
There are apps that will turn the PDA into a USB disk. I prefer just running a small FTP server on the PDA to dump my files via WiFi whenever I need to.
Now if someone could only port a SSH server as well so I could tunnel traffic though SSH, that be sweet.
really? Do you mind posting up the usb app or something like that?
it's called wmstorage i think the most recent one is 1.8 you should be able to search in dev and hack and find it
what type of device do you have?
wm5 storage works really well, also softick card export will show on pc as usb drive. but these are not wireless.
wow thanks a lot for all the suggestions, though the wireless part of air sharing is totally cool. I'll be sure to look into the suggestions tho
So does anyone know how to make something like air share? I have the touch, since I dont like the iPhone..(weird i know) but the touch uses wifi so it couldnt keep a stable internet connection all the time thus not allowing me access files on it all the time as well..
Any chances a developer out there would take a look into something like this?
a Friend had Airshare on his iphone,
he come to me, had my WLAn Key...
he startet Airshare, give me an Link (from his Iphone)
i write it to my Internet Explorer at PC, and TATA, i can download or Upload Files to the Iphone
needs some seconds Time, that i can Upload Files to Airshare
WOW WOW WOW
this is really cool
i search as well an Ap for WM like Airshare.
Bump this thread, very interested in an app like this, used the air sharing today on an iphone and would love to be able to use my phone as a wireless drive. Ive tried things like mocha ftp and can only send from phone to computer not the other way. Appreciate any help with finding an app for winmo!
Thanks in advance.
edit double post.
I use mocha and I can send from the computer to the phone just fine. If you're having problems doing that, try using a dedicated FTP client like FileZilla.
Here is my good deed of the day:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-serversman.html
I tested, checked for any issues and found none. It literally setups your phone as a server.
However, it a very little known app. Play at your own risk.
Very kind. Thank you for your speedy response. This is why I love XDA Devs.
OK. Slightly delayed response here... However, I'm considering switching back to a WinMo phone and ditching the restricted iPhone... However, I would like to ensure that I have the same functionality on my WinMo as I do with my iPhone, so I'm looking for similar or same apps before I make the switch... Looks like "Air Sharing" has a WinMo comparable app: www . mobile-stream . com / airshare . html ... Mobile Stream's "Air Share"...
Does the mobile-stream work for windows mobile to use it as a secondary monitor for computer?
also I notice its only for bluetooth. Is there on for just using internet ?
Was a little bored and thought I'd Remote my Win7 Netbook with the Xperia.
Had a laugh at the expense of some of my fellow Engineers/Computer Scientists.
Some figured it instantly, some had no clue, believes it really was running Win7, some thought it was themes etc of course, and came up with smart arse ideas of what it _must_ be
Bit I found the funniest is that the damn Xperia actually has a higher resolution that the netbook I was remoting with it.
Yes, that's really how big the damned Windows Live messenger is on my laptop(netbooks) 10" screen.
Yes, I photoshop on it, although I use a mouse that's worth more than the netbook itself (touchpads too cramped)
Yes, it's running Win7 and WinXP perfectly. (Infact it's also running Mac OSX 10.5.6 and Fedora 10 also, but those two partitions aren't shown in Win7.
nice ... but things will be tiny and even using the stylus will be tricky...
I tried several RDP progs... there is also a nice one with zoom ability found here in the forums called gamma.. but it requires a server/client files and not the windows RDP.
Good to know its working on win 7

The damn thing looks better on my Xperia than it does on the laptop itself. I just wish I could get WOL-over the internet working on my desktop at home so I could remote to it from work, but I just can't get the system to wake on the magic packets. Then I could do what i need to and then put it back to sleep.
which remote desktop software do u use?
Same question here, so far I found crappy RDP programs that don't allow me to type anything or have numlock always on.
Lol

Yep, standard RDP program, it works fine for me and I can type etc. What's the problem?
I have no idea!
I use the software with the original name 'Remote Desktop' (the flatscreen-with-satellite-dish-icon) right now. It does not allow me to type anything as soon as the connection is made. The soft keyboard as well as the fixed keyboard don't work.
The version I had before this (same software differrent version?) did allow me to type but always had the numlock on, without the option to turn it off.
There must me a right version out there

I hope that wasn't sarcasm. Because although I keep an archive of all cabs I install, I can sometimes get forgetful about where I keep them.....
ofcourse forgot the smiley. sorry...
I'm really not sure what kind of software it is since it used to come with WM5. There are no commercial solutions that work with Microsoft RDP are there?
Good.

Well the one I'm using is connecting straight to Windows 7, I didnt install any sort of server, so yes, it connects to Microsoft Remote Desktop.
Apology accepted, my memory is suddenly becoming more clear
Here you go, enjoy.
i use a different program, but im guessing its all the same program with different names and sizes, if anyone has a problem with any of the other cabs and wants to give the one im using a try, just gimme a shout(i dnt wanna post anything on here b4 i get the boot..lol, i believe the program is free though)
i basically work from my phone nowadays by the way...
The version from alias_neo is working much better! I am able to use correct keyboard functions. Thanks for that, I'm glad you have such flexible memory

Hi guys, I'm still hesitate to root and change the wpa file for wifi ad-hoc, and I think it'll be just even faster if we can use the USB to connect the phone as a modem. I have TP2 windows mobile, does anyone know if that's possible, or any app for that? Thanks.
hmmmmm
Been years since I have used Windows Mobile, but had a similar issue with my Samsung Intercept - the only wifi tethering apps I could find only supported ad_hoc connections.
Finally found a program that supported full infrastructure mode - was a lot easier that way.
A quick search of xda turned up something that might help you out: I used search terms "windows mobile infrastructure" as my terms and found my way here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357152
I think it is commercial software, but there seems to be a demo/trial thing going.
Best of luck - hope you get it working!

Thanks, but that's WMwifirouter, and only gives you ad-hoc, to my understanding, I'm using the latest version of the paid version of it.

I've tried different ways to tether-by-USB an HTC Touch Pro2 (Windows Mobile 6.5) to the Iconia A500 (Android 3.1). I tried both Internet Sharing and PdaNet unsuccessfully on a rooted A500 with a couple different versions of a modified wpa_supplicant file. No joy.
I ended up successfully using the trial version of WMWifiRouter on the TP2 to create a wifi hotspot for the Iconia. (I tried the USB method first on WMWifiRouter, but that didn't work.) I'll purchase the app as soon the trial expires--maybe someone will figure out a way to USB-tether the Iconia to WM 6.5 before then.
