has anyone tried .net 3.5 ob their Vogue ?
anyone state if it works ?
Yes, I have it. Yes, it works for software which requires it. However, it also causes other software to stop working. An example is E-Sword, mentioned in the thread asking about Bible software. If you have a program you want to use which states it requires 3.5, you can only hope it does not have a conflict with your other software. At this point I would not load it if you don't have to.
.net 3.5 actually speeds up most day to day tasks. you can have both 3.5 and 2.0 installed so there should be no problems....i have only 3.5 installed on mine and have had no problems.
I also have both 2 and 3.5 installed on my Vogue, and while there shouldn't be any problems, there are. As I said, you can install 3.5, and then if you do have a conflict, make the decision as to whether 3.5 or the program that no longer works is more important to you.
do you know which one is set as your default?

same question for me ?
You can find the current .NET setting in the registry, or you can use the .NET Config from modaco.

I'd like to have a go at developing something for my spanky new phone (HTC Wizard). So once I was able to drag myself out from behind the sofa from looking at the Win32 API, I took a look at .NET CF, screamed a little and eventually got a simple .NET CF 2.0 C# application to run.
However ever since I installed .NET CF 2.0 the phone has slowed down, sometimes does not completely refresh the today screen when unlocking, and otherwise play up, wanting at lest one soft reset a day to play happily. It goes back to normal if I uninstall .NET CF 2.0. I only have three applications installed (.NET CF 2.0, TCPMP and GPRS Monitor Tool), so it appears that it is .NET that is the cause.
It makes no difference if a .NET application is running or not.
Has anyone else experienced such problems with .NET CF 2.0 (both with this phone, and other devices)? And, more developer orientated can you compile .NET CF 1.0 applications with the .NET 2.0 compilers? I have done a small amount of Googling.
Thanks,
Mike
(Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this kind of question...)
Hi,
Does the Win32 API work with Windows Mobile devices? if it does but in a limited fasion do you have a list of the available API?
Thanks

The .NET apis are all in one (with remarks like "not in WM"), I think the same was true of the Win32, it might have also came with eVC.
Ah ha ok fair enough, Where can I locate the listing of API's?
With vs6 I used to use an APIguide application but thats not been updated since the whole .NET boom

Hmm, it complains that it requires a newer version of the .NET framework to work on my Exec.
[edit]Aha, we need this one to give use the 2.0 framework http://www.aspecto-software.com/xoops/modules/wfdownloads/singlefile.php?cid=1&lid=4 [/edit]
just dling now from microsoft
works a treat! definately a must for those working in connectivity, networking etc and also those into warchalking (with a gps)
Yup, great bit of software. Can anyone recommend an indoor GPS device for use with WiFiFoFum when War-walking?
Cheers.
Massive install
Bloody hell! :shock:
The CAB file for WiFiFoFum is just a few hundred KB, but the installer for the .NET Compact Framework is 5MB! :shock: :shock:
You've got to *really* want this software to suffer that kinda hit to your storage, IMHO.
Is there any other free warwalking software that works well for WM5? I can store locations in TomTom without WiFiFoFum's radar display...
Thanks in advance
This version was great. Thanks

Hi SiliconS,
I stored NetFramework and WiFiFoFum in my SD Card. It runs great, a little slow to start up but saves you the internal memory.
Plus from what I read, most new free warwalking software needs NetFramework 2. So there is no escaping it. Sorry.
If you want to try HitchHiker: http://www.kasuei.com/hitchhiker/ feel free, but the last time I tried it on my EXEC, it did not work.

Thanks for the reply, Christian.
Maybe I'll try WiFiFoFum if it installs OK to the SD card. I was just shocked at how much MS bloat was necessary to get it working. Even installing the .NET 'Compact' Framework via my PC required a 24MB download and a 59MB installed size. Seems crazy to me, but I guess it's necessary for something.
Just a pity that WiFiFoFum requires the complete .NET framework and can't just cherry-pick certain libraries. I'm not a coder so I don't understand the reasons, but I'm sure the developers don't choose this situation happily.
but where is the advantage compared to the version before, that makes it worth installing the huge framework-stuff...?
the 0.3.3-version works quiet good on my mda pro

So, you mean to say that the previous version worked well with the UNIVERSAL, so we don't need to install NetFramework 2? Does the old version of WiFiFoFum have Windows Mobile 5 support?

Previous version works on Universal, but you can't see all the screen in landscape mode. Since I use it once-in-a-blue-moon, I'm not worried by switching to portrait mode. But the loss of 5MB of main storage makes the latest version with .NET v.2 a non-starter!
Is there a Countdown Timer application that doesn't use the .NET COmpact Framework?
.NET slows down my desktop, I don't even want to know what it will do to my 8125.
I'm looking for a Countdown app in which I can put in a specific date and it will tell me how many days, hours, minutes seconds I have. A Countdown, pretty much.

Try this out for size!!! Just take off the .zip and then run!
Nice program, but too bad it needs .NET
Well, .NET is not "slowing down" your computer! .NET is part of your OS since Windows XP, so, without .NET you wouldn't even have a functioning OS. Even Windows Mobile has the NET COMAPCT FRAMEWORK build in since version 5, so, there is no way around it!
You might wanna try out this one - haven't tried it myself, so, I am not sure if it will work properly: http://www.pocketone-soft.com/stopwatch/2003sevga.php
Yeah, maybe your right, but when I run the application, it asks for a newer version of .NET
.NET is not a native part of Windows XP SP2, it is a separate component.
Any software that requires another piece of software to be installed is called bloatware in my book.
The application you posted is a stopwatch, not a countdown timer

Well, looks to me like the programmer of that software did not use the standard COMPACT FRAMEWORK but the latest (either 2.x or a higher BETA) when he compiled the program! Howeever, .NET will not slow you downit is in fact even increasing the speed of a higher OS, such as XP with latest updates and VISTA.
I had to write an article for it in a local pc magazine - I published it later in a programmer forum - you still can read it here: http://www.codingmonkeys.com/index.php?topic=1014.0
You will have to live with the fact that programmers will start more and more with developing .NET application - there is no way around it!
If you really want to find a 'non' .NET application look for older software (PPC 2003) which is out already for a few years. If it is only a countdown timer you're looking for it can't be too hard to find!
Sorry but I am newbie around here,
I have tried to run some programs a recently downloaded on my HERMES but when I try to run those programs, they indicate that my Microsoft net version so older that I need a newer one.
I have WM5 on my device
A) Where can I get a newer version? Is it free?
B) Can I keep my WM5 version but updating my Microsoft net version?
C) What is the purpose of this application?
I think you are talking about the microsoft dotnet framework(called compact framework on WM).
If so, you can download and install it free from microsoft. Do a google search for 'Compact Framework 2.0 Redestributable' and follow the microsoft link to download it on your pc(on which you do active sync). After download run the install on your pc. Next time when you active sync the compact framework will be updated to your pda.
If you are still could not find the download... go to one of the software I published(check my signature) and in the first post of any of my software I have a link to 'Compact Framework' download.
HTH
Edit: forgot your questions B and C
B: It does not affect your WM version(Yes to your question)
C: It makes your PDA run the applications built with .net technology. Most of the 'new applications' built now a days are .net. So no harm in updating to compact framework.
Nice !!!!!
I did it as you said and it's ok!!!!!!
Thanks..
i dont think most new apps are in .net as it still got some performance issues on pda's imho

Yes I do agree with you Rudegar.
But I do not treat that as an issue, since the dotnet architecture built such a way that the 'Things gets initialized as they are accessed' and the the 'Objects gets distroyed based on framework's assessment as to when to dispose things'. I think because of these behavior sometimes we see it as 'peforming bad'.
But one thing is sure that the dotnet did(or WILL) not replace the older native way of doing things(It's still long way to achieve it). Even a simple today pluggin is impossible with pure dotnet.
First of all a friendly hello to all the members of this forum which helped me a lot tweaking my HTC Touch Cruise.
After reading , downloading registry editors and manually adjusting values I wrote this little tool which makes TouchFLO adjustments a bit easier for others.

This is what I love about Windows Mobile!
Everything can be customized
I'll give it a go
Well done, and welcome!
Nice concept, except it doesn't work on a stock Cruise. Since I don't want to reload a new version of .net and take up space over the version included on ROM, I guess I'll stick with making registry entries.

This is why the requirements in the top say :

It will work if you have CF 3.5 installed.
