Hi, someone here wrote that it is impossible to create office 2007 cab file. I tried it and here is a result... Download the cab file and install it, then reset the device. It works only on WM6 for now, but I'll try to make it for WM5 too.
Tested on Wizard WM6 (5.2.318 Build 15342.0.0.0).
Download link: http://rapidshare.com/files/35775212/jimm98y_office2007.CAB.html
Here is new version:
+ executables are compressed
+ fixed uninstall bug with deleting icons
- still doesn't work on WM5
Download link: http://rapidshare.com/files/35900969/jimm98y_office2007.CAB.html
Download mirror: http://sharegadget.com/563261821 - working (6.5.2008)
nice, i will try..let see if realy works and dont dupe the office
works without any problem (Most Beautiful WM6) at Wizard. Thanks
diky moc
works here too with core 2.0n
sorry for sounding so ignorant but what exactly is this.... mobile office 2007??
afaik it is an update to the three mobile office applications to support the new office 2007 fileformat.
but does it add any other features?

on my wm5 device i can install it with onenote 2007 on my pc.
what is new in this app? the normal notes application seems to be more useful.
Is there anything in the Cab that is making it an only Wizard cab?
No, it should work on every QVGA WM6 device

I agree, I just went through the cab, good work, doesn't appear to have anything device specific, Thanks.
What program did you use for building the cab, just curious.
I used cabwiz.exe for ppc and the *.inf file, because I think that it's the best way of making cabs...

Any idea where I can download, I don't want to download the entire SDK tools.
WM5
Top stuff, any news on a WM5 version
worked on my Black 3, Thanks, but it takes about 5-6MBs off the device memory.. that's just too much
Great stuff!
Works on a SDK-image too, but only on the English ones. I tried it on a Dutch SDK, but that won't work.
Installation worked flawless on my German WM6 ROM with my Herald. No Problems opening a .docx file, but Excel won't start at all.

How did it only take 5 - 6 MB of Storage Memory. Mine dropped from 20.11mb down to 6.91mb. . . WAAAYYY too much for me. Too bad, too. . . it was working flawlessly . . . and I really wanted the OneNote app, too.
Disregard that. . . DOH!! After I deleted the .cab file, I gained back almost 7MB of Storage Space. . . a little more "liveable" now.

Hi guys,
Recently i have just purchased a brand new I-MATE jamin...i have been using it for over a week and have noticed a few things...
In the instructions manual it makes reference to some additional programs such as "skype" , "smart dialer" and "clearVUE pdf reader"....however when i recieved my phone, it did not come with these applications....any suggestions?
Also i have noticed that the included battery only lasts for MAX of 1 and a half days of normal usage...i dont use WIFI or BLUETOOTH often...just mainly use it as a phone..also the screen brightness is adjusted to the 2nd lowest scale...is the battery use normal ??? Also is it safe to buy one of those after market batteries from ebay as use it as a secondary battery????
Also i have read from various sources that the ROM of the jamin can be upgraded, although i have no idea how to do so..can anyone point me in the right direction? At the moment the specs of my JAMin are:
Rom version: 2.13.9.23 WWE
ROM date: 2/23/06
Radio version: 1_02.20.21
Protocol version: 4.1.13.9
IPL: 2.13.0001
SPL: 2.13.0001
I have no clue as to what the numbers mean except for the ROM...can anyone please tell me what the other numbers such as IPL and SPL mean? Also can anyone suggest any ROMs??
Sorry for so many questions...i am truly a noob with a JAMin...
thanks guys
YOU NEED TO DO A LITTLE MORE READING AND A LITTLE LESS ASKING
just kidding.... welcome to the forum... No n00b bashing from me...
coz then I'd have to bash myself too
1. You can download skype from the skype website - try it if you have friends that use skype.
I haven't bothered as it takes a lot of CPU, and I think it can only use the headset or the speaker on the back of the phone.
You can download clearvue pdf reader, but I prefer adobe reader lite...
smartdial AFAIK is just what happens when you are typing a number to call, and the phone picks out matching contacts before you finish typing.
2. yeah, battery is lame. Go and live next door to a mobile phone transmitter, that will help
Seriously a lot of people get a spare battery, you could try underclocking the phone using "batterystatus", but then you will lose speed.
Make sure you have the power setting to turn off when not used (it still receives calls)
3. yes you can upgrade wm6 is shiny and new but there are bugs reported in pretty much every WM6 ROM so far.

this is the bootloader, this runs before Windows loads up.
Sometimes if there is a problem upgrading you can fix it by writing a new ROM in bootloader mode
from the wiki
(http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Prophet)
[one of the] ways to enter the bootloader on the Prophet:
Hold down the camera button and reset the device. (Boot Loader Mode is: Press Camera + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camera button till appear the Boot Loader.)
This will start the bootloader, and red/green/blue colour bands will be displayed on the device.
Once the colour bands are displayed you can connect to the device via USB.

THanks for the reply triplejay,
As far as i know, my JAMin doesn't come with smartdialer at all!!! When i dial numbers, it doesnt match any of them before i finish typing!! Could this be due to the version of my ROM??
Also with regards to ROMs, is it better to upgrade to a newer ORIGINAL ROM (ie. a ROM date is made by I-MATE) or should I upgrade to one of the "aftermarket ROMs found on this website?

well, if you depend on your phone for work or anything, I'd suggest sticking with an official ROM for now. If you don't mind the odd bug*, then join the "aftermarket" club!
*e.g. bluetooth stereo headsets work with good quality on the newest ROMS, however every time I reset the phone I have to re-pair the headset with it.
Internet works well, good integration of Windows Live, however, sometimes after a reset I have to re-confirm the internet settings for it to work.
Those are the only two I've experienced with this ROM (TNT)
You might want to wait a bit, newer ROMS are coming I think, maybe without these bugs...
I attach an example of my today screen on WM6
Hi triple jay,
Your today screen looks totally different to mine...mine is still the original WM 5.0 screen...just wondering, did you make your today screen look like that by just installing the TNT ROM? Or do you have any other programs installed such as WISBAR..
Also after a week of use, i have noticed the BACK SPEAKER of my JAMin to distort occassionally when playing ringtones (set on the HIGHEST sound level)...is my speaker faulty???
Thanks for your help mate
Hi,
1. The lack of application could be due to lack of customization on your unit and it is just a generic wm5 rom. I would suggest a hard reset (not soft but hard reset) , then press the green send button to erase all the data on your handset. Then wait around 3 seconds after the reboot has finished and customization will commence.
2. The speaker most certainly sounds like it has problems, quite common and it will probably fail. They are cheap to purchase off ebay however installation is quite a bit of work.
Hi, regarding my today screen; no Wisbar, I just have Batterystatus installed, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=270751,
that's the bottom line u can see there
the rest came with the TNT ROM
The bit above batterystatus where it says "sync" is windows live,
then above that is the htc homeplug (part of the ROM) with custom icons (not made by me)!
Reading the forums, I think quite a lot of people have had troubles with the speaker...
but I just checked mine and it seems to distort a bit on the very loudest setting too, at least with MP3s.
Like grimmy said, installation of a new one is quite a bit of work though so prob. not worth it unless it dies completely....
Hi triplejay,
I have decided not to tamper around with my ROM just yet until i am familiar with the various available ROMs.
I have instead decided to install some today screen plugins such as wisbar,spb pocket plus etc etc . Do you have any suggestions of TODAY screen plugins that don't slow my JAMin down? I have heard that SPB slows the JAMin down and also has some program compatibility issues.
Thanks
Before I updated my ROM I used to use SPB mobile shell, and SPB pocket plus.
There's no denying they take up a lot of space on your device though,
Speed wise, any slowdown seemed negligable, but then I had overclocked from day 1 so that prob. helped.
I haven't tried the latest wisbar, but the older versions I did try seemed quite good. Might try the new version out actually.
There are some freeware alternatives;
claunch is an older one
http://home.pacific.net.sg/~welic/claunch.html
https://sourceforge.net/projects/claunch/
rltoday is pretty cool
http://rotlaus-software.de/
lots of good user made skins on their site
http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewforum.php?id=5
I listen to a lot of music so the other thing I used to use was a plug-in that showed media player on the today screen,
e.g. the one at the bottom of this post or the newer HTC one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1318018&postcount=14

Hi triplejay,
In regards to using SPB mobile shell, and SPB pocket plus, did you install these programs into your JAMin's phone storage memory or on the SD card? I have heard that installing programs into the phone's SD card causes the programs to run slower because the phone needs time to access the programs..and also how did these programs affect your memory?? used up alot of memory ?? Also would I still be able to set my own today backgrounds using these programs or can i only use the themes designed for these programs???
thanks for your help, your posts have been a lot of help to a newbie like myself

no problem
I don't think SPB mobile shell gives the option to install to SD card, it's possible with Pocket Plus but not recommended, even by SPB.
I remember reading the following on the SPB site,
and after that always installing stuff that involves the today screen or system to main storage...
We strongly recommend that you not install Spb Pocket Plus to a storage card because storage card drivers can be loaded with up to a 5 second delay after system restart and important files will not be available for loading. One other reason is that Spb Pocket Plus is a system utility and some of its components run in the background. If you remove the storage card Spb Pocket Plus will not be able to load its resources.
Click to expand...

...so the space they take up, is on the device and yes it is a fair amount of memory, maybe a fifth of available memory or something... (not sure)
you should be able to use your own pic for the background with all these I think,
the SPB extended themes for example, will set new system colours etc, with a matching background that you can change as normal.
Hi triplejay,
I have downloaded the trial versions of both SPB pocket plus and mobile shell and will install tonight and let you know how it goes...
Although i still have a couple of questions...
Backup programs such as SKTOOLS or sprite backup...should these be installed into the phone's SD card or the phone's memory ?? Also where should i install games????
Also does anyone know the date of the newest official ROM for the imate JAMin?? I have searched the imate site to no avail...
thanks guys
hey, JAMinGUY,
about the latest imate ROM, I wouldn't know, but looking at this blog post from menneisyys;
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in..._finding_identifying_the&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
and then checking ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/
leads me to believe that the newest available is :
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip
Could be wrong, just seems to make sense...
I would say definitely put games on the SD card, I've got my backup program (SPB backup) installed on SD too...
the only thing that I would be unsure of is SKtools, but it doesn't seem to run at startup, or run in the background,
so i would say it's probably OK to install to card as well.
...Unless if you did something like ran it off the card, then used it to format the card your running it off. That probably wouldn't be good, lol.
hey guys,
i have been using SPB POCKET PLUS AND SPB MOBILE SHELL (both installed in system memory) for a week now and have noticed some things....
the phone seems slower to respond to screen taps...and also when i lock the phone, sometimes i can't unlock it...i need to soft reset it....
triplejay, do u know of any programs similar to SPB POCKET PLUS that dont have these freezing issues???
cheers mate

unfortunately not really ...
if u haven't already tried rltoday though, that could be worth a go.
Resco explorer comes with a today plugin, but it's a bit gay, just a few icons, but resco explorer itself is quite good, try the demo if u havent already....
and a couple of threads below this one you will find the htc homeplug (for wm5), personally that homeplug together with batterystatus have filled all my own shortcut related needs....
First of all, I love it.
I have currently installed:
-Pocket Weather
-Google Maps
-Battery Status
-And a 2gb SD card.
I have overclocked it at 247mhz. Read it was save, and so on.
Now, I have seen other phones with MUCH more memory. I have been having about 10mb free daily.
I have seen phones with 85mb+ daily. Just curious how that can be established.
My phone is great, and quick at the moment, but there are those time where it holds back for a second of 2.
What can I do to keep the phone running good? Without crashing, keeping it up to date, and keeping it save?
Another thing would be, how can I watch videos on Youtube? I downloaded a flash player a while back, but it never seemed to work. Heard people downloading Flash Player Bundle, but it never worked for me :-(.
Thanks a bunch guys!
to watch youtube you need a streaming media player (HTC)..... as far as the memory you S.O.L. unless you flash your rom!!!!! the only tip i can give you is do some reg tweaks, page pool is a must and since its new do a hard resest and when it start to load the ppc apps do a soft reset (or pull the battery out) to stop it from load alot of that stuff you wont use. Also get a 4gig sd card and put everything on it, right now my wing has 23 program memory and 14 storage memory that with about 20 programs on it... GOOD LUCK....keep in mind this is all trail and error ive hard reset alot in the beginning and now i softrest about 10 time a day trying to make it better..."dont be afraid my brother close yo eyes and sqeeze the ************" fad2blk
if you want to get the most out of your phone, I'd reccommend flashing a new rom.
Personally, I'd recommend one of ITJE or ASERG roms.
If you want to watch Youtube movies on your device, Download the latest TCPMP and Flash Video Bundle. Install them both, then go to youtube page with your device.
Search on a title and tap on the picture.
You'll get 3 options.
Play Video: Open TCPMP and streams the video.
Save Video: It saves the video
Linked Page: It open the page is it would on your regular computer. without the player.
This should do. And if you want to run it faster or anything, Take duprade's advice.
Read a manual on How to Flash A New ROM. There are cool features on a custom ROM.
Such as the TCPMP as i mentioned before. You'll get more memory and you can make the phone run faster as you have now.
Oh.. about the memory issue. Why you have about 10MB free is the fact that the standard Windows Mobile eats all the space.
Our ROM developers here on XDA-developers have cured this problem.
Im running Touch-IT right now and i have 36 MB storage free and 15 MB programs.
I know this is a long reply but since your new here and your new to your wing, i thought i gave you this advice.
Welcome to the forum. If you need any help about your wing, feel free to post a new thread and we'll help you!
Flash your phone~!
You should flash your [hone. The new stuff that has been released thanks to all the geniuses on this forum has made the wing a great ppc. check out ttrans forum for windows mobile 6.1!

phones with 81mb of memory (program OR storage) are simply equipped with more memory than the Herald is.
something that i do that works great
before i change my rom i copy all the programs that are installed on my phone to my computer for example games, internet browsers, all media players except for TCPMP and Windows Media, picture viewers, google maps, and drawing/ illustrating programs. they are all pretty stable and run perfect when i update my rom and copy them to my Micro SD Card. i save at least 20 MB of program storage.
oh and the rom i use is OpenTouch V3.0 Lite. saves me a ton of memory
Alright, so where is a good web site to download this stuff? (Player and Page pool)
There was a web site that had a bunch of free downloads. It was pretty neat, but I lost the link to it...
Is it possible to somehow completly uninstall internet explorer?
I think it is very slow and completly useless becouse I use Opera, and IE is very slow!
Also I would like to know if there is a way of removing Adobe reader, becouse I like to use Pocket Xpdf instead!
In other words, I want to be able to add and remove what ever I want in my device, so that I dont have to use the original programs when I can use better programs instead!
I know that for windows there is a program called nlite that enables me to completly remove stuff that I dont like and adding stuff that I like and then burn into a installation cd or make an ISO so I can burn later!
Is there something like that awailable for wm6?
I hope you understand what I am looking for!

Hi All, yesterday i install xp on my GF's eee900 using nLite, it's very fast and i am so impress. Now that is done and running super fast, i wonder if i could do the same for my shift, by using vLite to create a strip down version of vista and intall it from an external DVD drive.
Tne problem i could think of is drivers, do wehave the complete list of drives for vista? if so, i think it will be very possible, you get to disable all the service and microsoft cr*p that you don't want, which will speed up Shift a lot.
Let me know what you guys think.
I think the more techno savvy of this forum are working on this amongst other things. If HTC was to provide drivers for the hardware it would help, a lot...

After mounting the XVISTA.WIM inside the recovery partition, I can safely say, Vlite will not work with Shifts Vista.
However, I am currently working on a solution.
I will use a normal Vista Business to create a lite version of Vista and slipstream it into the recovery partition. I hope to shave off a few GB and get some resources free.
But it will take me a few days to get that done. Will keep you updated.
Awww cumon!!
You only have a hard working 800Mz proc!!!
Give it loads of extra file handling and say NITE NITE!!!
(Soz, alchohol moment...)
Do not expect this kit to do anything normally expected of a PC or good laptop, it is a slow UMPC as nothing better exists YET!!!!
I used to see this of people expecting to see a TyTynII act as a laptop!!
Please read the specs of the device and hope for a little more from XDA devs, but not miracles out of the box!!
dude, I play mkv files on it
of course, on win xp made using nlite, with carefull a codec and player selection. there are some of us that would try to get every mhz out of that processor, just for fun and proofs of concepts.
if it were possible i would put win98 on it, and have a boot time of 20sec . It would still offer more then a windows mobile environment.
its more about the size of the Vista installation.
Its easier for me to modify Vista then getting XP to work on this.
Besides, whats wrong with freeing up resources...doesnt cost anything and makes it more responsive.
so far, it runs really nice and quick.
Can even play some stuff on it (Ground Control)
anyway...as soon as its done, I will post the download link
