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...

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.

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

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

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.

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.

Hello everybody.
as probably some of you guys set uped your shift to be navigation as well using various softwares and external GPS signal receiver.
i would like to start a thread to finalise which program and receiver most suit the Shift. From previous thread i have seen people discussing about MS autoroute, Automapa, and IGo but ended up without conclusions.
i will explain my experience
primarily i installed Autoroute 2007 on shift with my blueNEXT (sirfIII) gps receiver, which didn't end up well. the problem was something to do with com-port, seems like Autoroute cannot locate the device.
2ndly i tried with Automapa but i could get around registration so i couldn't really test it fully.
I would like to find out some comments who still uses Automapa and Autoroute, how they set uped the devices.
i am eagerly waiting for your replys.
Hi, hopefully you will get some helpful replies, but please do not discuss pirated software or ask how to crack software, as we all run the risk of losing the forum if those kinds of discussions are allowed.
Thanks.
I found out some trick
For everyone getting highly or slightly frustrated with the task :
Setting up a Bluetooth GPS Receiver on Vista
I got a Tip :
It seems that when pairing your device, most of the time, two comports are created automatically, an outgoing and incoming port.
If you install whatever kind of Navigation software, and you try to start it with the correct port, many, many people on the internet report problems. The device won't connect.
I don't know why, but if you FIRST start your navigation software, then open the GPS task pane, and try to connect to the port, and QUICKLY go into the bluetooth settings "show BT devices" and click on your GPS.
Then click the second tab to show the available services, AS SOON as that happens, I got a consistent and persistant connection.
All other options (the normal way) fail for me. I have to trick it and jumpstart it whilst the navigation software is already running and looking for the port....

Hi
I bought GPSGate installed thaihugo's WWE 1.22.x and installed GPSGate WM side and Vista side. I installed Microsoft Streets & Trips 2006, which I bought sometime back in 2007. Now this works like a champ. I opted out to install pocket streets though. I will install either odyssey or something else once we figure out how get SD card visible.
Edit: I have found Odyssey requires WinXP to install, their installer will not work with WinVista, too bad.
Thanks
Ram
Yup, I'm using GPSGate running on both Vista and WinMo and Microsoft Autoroute 2007. Works perfectly.

No, Autoroute is running on Vista using the GPS data from WinMo, which is shared over the activesync connection.

Please let me know, how can I setup properly GPSgate on WiMo and Vista side? thx!
You need both the WinMo and Vista/XP versions of GPSGate. Both versions together cost $49 from the Franson website. Use Google if you want the 'warez' versions, I won't link to them here. When you install them, it asks which connections and com ports to share the gps data over. Select Activesync on both installs. Then you just point your Nav program to the virtual com ports created by GPSGate.
hello,
since yesterday, I'm trying cmonex's rom with phone(no voice) and gps working but I need an application to test the gps and I don't have one.
I have tried with Live Search but it doesnt seem good and it needs internet for downloading card, not good !
I have heard about igo but i have also heard that it was too heavy for the shift. Is it too heavy?
I really want a gps software to test it in BELGIUM (i know that there are gps apps in US in eval period but I can t use it here).
even if you have a non-free app, i'm intersting in your epxerience and price of it (in europe if possible)
thanks all !

Could you help me a bit? I have no idea how to launch GPS in my Shift. I did everything that was on a film at Modaco. My shift is now liberated, but i don't know how i can set the gps port in Igo for example.
I have GPSGATE wm version and GPSGATE windows vista version installed on my shift and configurated both for activesync and IGO PC version works very very good.
igo8 works just great on my FS N520 wm5 device (which is only 312MHz).So, i suppose it will work fine on shift. It's perfect for europe - I have travelled to many european countries with it.But just one question: where will you install the program AND the maps, since wm side of shift doesn't read the sd card???
hehe ;-) you cannot install the maps. (as workaround you can move the maps to windows XP/Vista side, make this folder visible for network access and mount it with scecial tools on windows mobile side. But this is not more then a workaround, you must let running windows XP/Vista all the time too.. Not a really good solution...
the shift is a..... mistake... ;-)

Hi
There is may be a workaround here but i don't know about it. Officially Tomtom home won't support HD2. But use a t7.915.cab will be the easiest way to install Tomtom in the HD2 and it works great. You can find this cab file also here in xda. Just search
Good luck

I know that cab works on HD2 but the TomTom Home software installed on the computer won't recognise HD2 when it is connected to the computer.
is there any possibility with windows xp, so it means, with activesync instead of mobile device centre.
i´ve bought the traffic information, but can´t update my hd2 with it yet.

TomTom Home 1.5 on XP does work with HD2 but there is no map share and you can not download anything. All it does is recognise the handset.
P.S. If you have active traffic subscription, you don't need to connect your HD2 with TomTom home to update traffic. Just enter your account details in to the MY ACCOUNT section in TomTom software on your handset and enjoy!
TomTom Home does'nt currently support HD2 so we need to wait for an update. I notice in your SIG that you have a touch Diamond,If you still have it, You can update the map on your Diamond and transfer the 4 files needed to HD2 (MapServerPatch,ServerLineIndex,ServerNameIndex,PatchFilter)

Click to expand...

These are the files placed in your map folder by TomTom home, used for the mapshare updates. You can tell by the dates on the files, eg. if you update the map today, those 4 files will be dated todays date. If you copy them over to your HD2 Map then you will have the latest mapshare update.
I can install Tomtom Navigator 6 on my HD2 up to the point that the cabs are moved onto my SD card (16GB) and the card is installed. At that point the cab installs successfully and TomTom opens a setup screen, which seems to ask the interface language and left/right hand preferences. But this screen is scrambled (wrong resolution) so it's impossible to enter a response and it locks up. Has anyone got a work-around for that?
Strangely, that happened the first time I installed on the TyTnII; but then I was able to make out enough to press the right buttons and it worked fine after that.
Tomtom version 6 or 7
I tried to install tt6 - installation from cab without problems - but cannot open the program. Installed tt7.915.916 black, but it cannot recognize my maps from Western europe or Scandinavia - and installation was not possible on SD card.
I bought a licence from TT (version 6) and the programme was running very well on my HTC 3300. Are someone able to solve that problem ?
