"Not a proper pocket pc application."

As I seem to have problems getting any of I attempt to download to actually work, I went to the MYXDA.COM site.
They had a link for the following PictPocket Cinema 2.7 movie player:
http://www.pdastreet.com/software/pdas/PictPocket-Cinema-2002-6-10-pdastreet-pdas.html
Unfortunately I received the following (and usual) error message:
"Not a proper pocket pc application."
I also got this with EVERY VERSION of the fax software that has been listed on this forum.
What am I doing wrong?
Provider: Orange
Machine: SPV-M1000 (SPV2020)
OS: MS Pocket PC
Version: 4.20.0 Build (13252)
ROM: 1.60.00 WWE
ROM Date: 12/03/03
Radio: 1.10.00
Protocol: 1337.18
I really can't download any app. It is heart-breaking.(!)
I have the Harry Potter III movie trailer & I really want to watch it.
Thanks
Dave

I started getting that error message when I answered yes to replacing the gx.dll file, after installing an older PPC app. I had to HARD RESET to get my gx.dll file back because I didn't make a backup. If you have a backup of your gx.dll, copy it over and try again.

thanks.
Thanks for that, i will give it a try this evening.
The annoying thing is that this device is brand new and hasn't had one app installed yet. my ISP say the reason the e-mail isn't working is because of a software issue and also advise a full restore.

Error "Version of ActiveSync not compatible with the co

Version of ActiveSync not compatible with the connected mobile Device
This is the error I receive no matter what I have read to do or not do to my Desktop PC.
These are the setting in the Device:
New I-Mate Jasjar with
ROM Version: 1.12.38 WWE
ROM Date 8/24/05
Radio Version: 1.03.00
Protocol Version: 42.36.P8
ExtRom Version: 1.12.120 WWE
I realize that there is a new Rom Update but I can't sync with my Desktop to get the file? 62 MB by the way.
These are the actions I took to try and rid this error message.
Cleared Temp folder (%temp%) in all user accounts.
In the registry deleted HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services key
Deleted HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services
Uninstalled Microsoft Activesync from Add/Remove Programs
Deleted Activesync folder from Programs Files
Restarted the computer
Installed Microsoft Activesync 4.0 many times and 4.1.0 Build 4807 many times all the while deleting the other before the new install.
This is what happens after a new install.
The device is seen by my Computer running Windows XP SP2 and loads the device- At this point everything looks good.
ActiveSync start and actually connects to the device but only as a GUEST not as the device name that I imputed in the JASJAR.
NEXT the Error occurs “This Version of Microsoft ActiveSync is not compatible with the connected mobile device. Please upgrade to the latest Version of Microsoft ActiveSync and reconnect."
If I click on the OK button underneath the error. The device connects but I cannot explore the contents or sync to the device whatsoever.
Could anyone aid in getting this problem resolved. I have spent over 10 hours trying to figure this out looking at all other forums but no one seams to have a resolution.
This Link seam to have had the issue happen with eairlier version of ActiveSync but I have followed each step but still no resolution.

Update to Above
I just went out and purchased a new computer and installed Activesync 4.1 and outlook 2003 Xp on the XP Pro machine. When I went to connect the USB cable it found a new Pocket PC device but didn't list that it found the JASJAR. Then activesync started and it happened again.
This Version of Microsoft ActiveSync is not compatible with the connected mobile device. Please upgrade to the latest Version of Microsoft ActiveSync and reconnect."
When I click on OK I get connected as a Guest account only but can't see any items on the Pocket PC.

I had the same problem...
It's a compatibility issue with Antivirus.
Uninstalled the antivirus and the device got recognized

Pls Help...Sync problem.

Hi,
Outlook installed, activesync 4.0 installed, still CANNOT sync Contacts and Calender with my PC.
Sync folders are fine as well as favourite but no contacts and calenders can be done.
PLs advice...
Mark

Try this...
force syncing from the JASJAR on activesync menu... sometimes resolves the problem instead of doing it from the PC...
if doesn't work, delete the partnership... (should you want please save first the folder on your PC, so if you can create a new one and after copy/paste again your info...)... and create a new partnership...
should that either works, de-install the active sync and following a PC reboot re-install it again... in this step you can also use the lastest version (not official yet) AS 4.1... from here... ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/AS4.1_build4807/
I hope this helps...

activesync 4: the cd produced for the exec has all the files required but the wizard is not correctly programmed. any way, the easy way is to install the activesync 4 and a file on the cd called "USBMDM.inf " not sure of the extention but if you click it and scroll to install it sould now be able to connect. if you haven't got the file here it is.
ps don't for get to unzip it.LOL

Noob needs PC perspective. updating a Dopod818Pro w/GuestPC

Hello all. I bought my wife a Dopod 818 Pro. Here's the info:
ROMv. 1.0.13.21WWE
ROM date 11/24/05.
Radio 01.13.20
Protocol 4.0.13.24
ExtRom 1.00.13.102
IPL 1.0.0
SPL 1.00.0000
GSM 01.13.20
OS 1.0.13.21
I am attempting to update to the latest ROM provided in these threads. I use Guest PC 1.9 to emulate Win XP w/latest SP.
I am able to connect activesync and transfer files etc. But when I run the ROM Update, as soon as the Dopod switches to Bootloader mode, the connection drops and the installation is cancelled.
Is this problem occuring because I use Guest PC or do I not have the correct drivers?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Update utility works directly to USB, and uses ActiveSync just to put a small exe file to the device and run it. The exe puts PDA to bootloader mode, then update utility communicates to bootloader directly with USB. I guess you should use a real host to reflash.

Yup
J,
You are absolutely right. I finally got a hand on a PC and the update went flawlessly.

O2 Xda Orbit - The Image file is corrupted. Please check your Update Utility

Hi folks!
I have a O2 Xda Orbit (in the wiki, the cruiser version).
Whenever I run the update tool to update whatever (splash screen gsm radio version, rom) it spits out this error:
The Image file is corrupted. Please check your Update Utility
What is wrong?
Device details:
ROM Version: 3.4.206.2 WWE
ROM Date: 4/18/2007
Radio Version: 02.67.90

Thanks in advance

Are you in Windows Vista? (Try Windows XP)
Do you have an SDHC card? (Take it off)
And don't forget to run USPL before you flash anything.

Also you can search for a newer version of the update utility (although I don't know if that will work).

thanks for replying
Hi!
First, thanks for replying.
USPL is the one that makes my screen show a tux pinguin, right? (how cool... can we run linux on that? )
if I run uspl firts it freezes showing a penguin and its not connected to computer via activesync, therefore not able to connect with rom updater
I will try to remove sdhc card
