GPS on Vista (freeware solution) - Shift General

have you seen this:
http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
works on my device.

That's nice, thanks. But have you tried Garmin Mobile PC, it looks great in shift vista side. Discussed here

No actually your solution is very interesting. Too bad the developer want's to link on his site, otherwise it would have been a great addition to a rom. I'll try to send him a message.

Windows Vista on Athena ! I done it !

You want to know how to run Windows Vista on Athena? Well, read on!
Firstly, is not really installing the Vista on Athena, i uses the terminal client services to remote control my desktop.
This is the application i use, it's the TCS in WM6, at least 10x better then the original WM5 one. Simply install it and run it, you will have to have knowledge of remote desktop to set this up. I will not try to cover here because there are some ways. Do a search on the net and you will find lots of into.
Below i attach the WM6 TCS and a screen shot of my Vista Ready Athena!
Haha, you got yourself a UMPC now.
That looks Amazing...

Damn that looks good! Can you actually control and view evrything that happens on your vista through your Dopod? Including High Def Movies? (I know I'm pushing it now )

yes you can control everything including setting and e-mail, office, outlook. However movie doesn't play for some reason, i am working on it now.
Thanks A Lot!
I've done it. And it works really well!
And indeed much better then the WM5 implementation of TCS.

It's never gonna work for me...I'm using XP Home Edition. Home Edition does not support Remote desktop/TCS, even though the application comes with it.
Confirmed by microsoft. It will work with XP Pro though! Might just upgrade it then, but can't remember if that wipes all of my installed apps? Don't fancy re-installing them...way too many.

nah, it doesn't. upgrade leaves everything as it was- even your desktop, settings, etc.

Hi Wu, I tried to use the remote terminal with Universal. It works, however I cannot type neither using the Universal keyboard nor the softkeyboard of the Universal. How do you keyed in text when you are remote accessing your PC?

Hey Wu. Can you or anyone else who has successfully got the WM6 Remote Desktop to work on the Athena please give me some guidance?
1st. Thanks for the link Slave 1.....the web based 'LogMein' works a treat!
Wu..I done a clean install of XP Pro (supports TCS and Remote Desktop) and I installed all necessary components for XP & Remote Desktop. Activated 'Allow users....to Remote Desktop' etc.. My problem is not knowing what to put in the 'Domain' section in the WM6 Remote Desktop application. Is Domain the same as IP? Forgive my ignorance on this...I'm a noob to this..
If it's IP info required for this part, which one? I think I have a static IP address, but am not sure. When I check my IP over the web it is different to what shows up for my PC??!!
I'm confused now. This I believe is my only glitch now. Help please. 'LogMeIn.com' works fine, but it's implementation leaves a lot to be desired and all of you guys seem to really like the WM6 style.
Pointers please.

you don't really need to type in anything in the domain, you can leave it blank, the most important part is the first one, the computer name, you have to type in the IP address of your computer, or your actual computer name if you are connecting on a local network. check your computer IP, and just put it in there, it should work.
Hi
I have a problem in that i can only get the remote working via wi-fi (same network) but when im away and i type the ip adress while on t-mobile internet, i can't connect at all. i have disabled firewall and anti virus but still can't connect. I can only connect while im on the same network
any ideas?

you need to forward the port, if i remember correctly, it's 3389 to your computer IP. Do a search on xda about port forwarding
thanks for Moskus for correcting me
I think the port is 3389...
great, it works!! thanksd alot guys
If someone got problem on the keyboard and button.
Try to install in the Device but not the MicroDrive.
I got it work after I reinstall it
HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vista - Remote Display??

Hello,
Just upgraded my laptop to Windows Vista. I used to run a program called ActiveSyncRemoteDisplay from Microsoft under XP. This no longer runs under Vista and I haven't found a replacement.
Does anyone currently use a Remote Display (Free preferably) under Vista?
Thanks a million

Steven,
Thanks for the reply. I had already come accross that link and tried it. Unfortunately, the Remote Display software does not install under Vista. I'm getting "ERROR_MISSING_CEAPPMGR entry not found in string table"
I'll keep hunting!
Thanks again.

Just copy this to your device and install it from there - this is the same MS CERdisplay program but without the need to install it on your device via ActiveSync
Smiffy.

I installed the CAB file on my device and launch CERHost.EXE on my laptop. My phone (Cingular 8525) is tethered to my laptop and connected. Once I open CERDisp.EXE from my device, I enter PPP_PEER as the address to connect to. The Caption on the CERHost.EXE changes to WM_VPALHORIES which is my phone name however the image from the device is not shown on the computer. I get no errors at all during this process.
Any advice on what I should do next?
Thanks

No, it simply allows you to see your mobile device screen from your computer screen (and control your device from your computer). I use this for training.
Try this one...
I don't know if this works under Vi$ta - it does a great job on XP. It's called MyMobiler: www.mtux.com

Gave it a shot and I'm getting the same results as the previous ones I tried. Device connects, however nothing is being displayed on the PC.
The hunt continues ... thanks for your help.

Thanks for that link, chandalf. That's a very nice little program.
To answer the original question, Pocket Controller is a commercial product that does what you need and the most recent version claims to work with Vista.
They do have a free trial so that you can test it to see. And, if it turns out that it doesn't work for you, you will be able to use them for tech support.

I updated my HTC USB Sync drivers which in turn updated the Windows Mobile Device Center. MyMobiler now works as does the one Smiffy sent.
Thanks to all who helped me with this. I appreciate your time.

Wizard on the desktop?

Is there such a program that will allow me to control my wizard from my PC desktop? I thought I saw one before, but I have searched and searched and cannot find. Any help would be great.
Microsoft has a "Windows Mobile Power Toys" (AFAIR, not 100% sure) Package, which contains a tool to do that. It's pretty old and I don't know whether it still works with modern Windows Mobile versions, but you may nevertheless give it a try.
EDIT: By accident just found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2179815&postcount=2
Sounds pretty promising

Soti's Pocket Controller was recommended to me yesterday and I can vouch for it being an outstanding program.
There's My Mobiler which is freeware and does the job you can get it from:

I use "My Mobiler" and its very good. The best thing is that I can use my mouse cursor in the Wizard screen, at the same time I use it on pc.
There is the version 1.23 released on the developer site: www.mymobiler.com

Text messages handler on (PC-) screen (like Soti pocket controller)

Is there an application where you can send text messages from your PC' monitorscreen while the device is hooked up via windows mobile center (active sync)?
I often use soti pocket controller (lets you view and acces your xperia on screen, great app for installing cab files and editing your device), but its just nog stable enough, sometimes the connections just failes on me...
W'd be a great help... (especially unlimited text messaging, you'd be texting like its e-mail!)
Btw, great site with tons of info... find myself checking it every day...
I know you can do this with Jeyo Mobile Companion, but I'm not sure if it works with the x1 yet.

When I had a C902 I used an amazing application called My Phone Explorer, but unfortunately they don't work with Windows Mobile Phones. I know that hasn't answered your question, but will be watcing this thread as I am also interested.
I currently use:

Looks ok, but works rather slow, when typing messages in the screen, the application often skips some letters, but still testing.
There must me other applications out there that can handle this. So ill keep searching!

RealVNC or UVNC on TP2?

Yes or No? I have remote controller and while it works good, it doesnt recognize the slide keyboard, idk if realvnc or uvnc will, but they're more universal and all my machines already have uvnc on them
Are you talking about a viewer/client or a server on your phone?
RealVNC's website says they have a WM viewer, but there don't seem to be any links to it and it appears to be a commercial product. I don't see any evidence that UltraVNC make a WM viewer.
There are a couple of fully workable free viewers around. Search for vnc-E4_2_7b4-arm_pocketpc_viewer or check out http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/.

This version works fine. I've been using it for quite some while now.
awesome, and this supports the proprietary keyboard on the tp2? Its a serious pain in the ace having to pull up the char. map that this remote im using now needs
Got it running perfect, exactly what I was lookin for, thanks for the help guys
Police Scanner for Win Mo?
Ive seen it for both the droid and the (stupid POS) iphone, theres gotta be a scanner for windows mobile, anyone seen anything?
I've been making a couple posts about UltraVNC mobile over at their website, but I doubt any of the developers really have a Windows Mobile phone to mess around with it. I have the RealVNC one, pre-paid-app version. It seems to be the best. I wish UltraVNC did develop a mobile version because I can't view my secondary monitor on the VNC viewer I'm using now.
Also, just as a note, there are VNC servers out there for your phone so you can use a VNC viewer on your PC to control your phone, but I haven't found one that was always stable. This one seems to be the best bet, but now it's a paid-app.

i tried but i kept getting this error: unable to connect to host: connection timed out (10060)
i was able to connect from pc to pc but not wm to pc. host runs on Win 7 with Outpost firewall. I already allow it on my firewall and forwarded those ports on my router. if you or anyone knows the solution, please tell me. thx.
on your windows 7 pc run uvnc server, Not realvnc. It doesnt work idk why. set it up to recieve the user, pass, and to recieve remote input and then connect using wm realvnc. works on all my machines
I found this a while back it seems to work fine just unzip and copy over to your SD card then run the exe. I personally copied it to my programs folder then created a shortcut to in my start menu.
First Post by the way
