I recently was forced to hard reset my Wing after installing Pocketbreeze constantly crashed the phone to the point I could not uninstall. I tried installing the program several times before giving up and starting over without it. Afterward, I noticed that Office Mobile was no longer installed. It seems like I've hard reset in the past and this software was still installed. Can anyone confirm this one way or another? Is there any way to get the Office software back? Would I have lost any other useful software from the original load? Any advice would be appreciated. Office Mobile was a pain, but I did use it to view files on occasion.
Also, has anyone else had issues with Pocketbreeze? It looked like a useful piece of software and I'm curious why it wouldn't work. any other good calender/organizer/to-do list softwares you can recommend for the Today Screen?
Thanks,
Justin

anybody know how to full installation into thinking that its installing the device with pocketpc 2002? i'm running 2003 and most of the software refuses to install via setup and pocket plus refuses to install even by copying the .cab file. any ideas what string to change in the registry?
thanks
alex
Pocket Plus is known to be so far incompatible with Mobile Windows 2003 for Pocket PC (aka PPC2003). Core OS differences in the Today plugin spec seem to be preventing it from running.
Watch for an update soon by the great spb developers (no, I don't have any affiliation with them other than the email I got when I asked the same thing).
thanks. i don't really care for today plug in as i want the close button.
You may want to try Gigatask, www.gigatask.com, from the makers of
GigaBar in the meantime
Or if you'd like a cascading start menu with task closer to boot, try
SmallMenu Plus from www.tillanosoft.com.
I use both on the opposite corners of my menubar, and each
complements the other wonderfully.
Oh, and by the way, I've sent you a pm.

Hi guys, I have an HTC touch (sprint) and got a job with a air balancing company and they have software that links their ppc's to their server for live data entry. however the application is only available for the palm os. Does anyone know if installing multiple OS's on a phone is even possible, like installing linux on an ipod? or if not, any way to convert a palm os application to WM6 combatible application. If needed, i have the install files for my application, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If nothing exists i would even consider payment for the application to be convtered if anyone is intrested.
Thank you
Matt
you would probably have to build the application up again from the ground up if its a native palm application, although, if its written in a common language, i dont see why it couldnt be ported over
somebody more knowledgable should be able to help you better
and welcome to xda-devs
you can use styletap to run palmOS apps on windows mobile, if this is what you want to do.
Well, im 50% there, styletap works great, im able to load the software and run it, no glitches yet, however styletap doesnt seem to be allowing the application to sync with my server. any1 have any ideas? i even tried first establishing a data conn in WM6 using IE and hopped back to style tap to sync again. no luck
I installed TouchFlo 2D on my HTC Touch (WM 6.1 / Telus, Canada), and it's a great leap from what WM provides!! I cannot however, access the Internet, Browser, Bookmarks, or YouTube from the associated Internet page TouchFlo 2D provides.
Is there a way to get them working through TouchFlo? I tried uninstalling TouchFlo thinking reinstalling it might help, but that crashed my syncing ability. I had to softboot my phone, and the computer as well several times before they started communicating again.
Additionally, should there not be a solution for getting the Internet functionality working, is there a way to successfully remove TouchFlo 2D ?? I'd possibly like to try something else if I keep having problems.
Can anyone help ??
Thanks,
Karen VK
Did you install Opera, as well as the YouTube app? The links will not work without the supporting applications. You can also try installing M2D Customizer to set the internet widget to use Internet Explorer instead of Opera if you don't want to install it.
Thanks for your response, and sorry I didn't respond sooner (!!) My system had a melt-down so I de-installed TouchFlo, re-formatted my computer, got a new cell .. I'm just getting back to trying to play with it. I'm hoping with your simple response I'll be up and running in no time.
It was frustrating though, that I tried to post my query over a month before it went in, but couldn't start a thread, and the help team wasn't able to resolve anything. Thanks soooo much for being there !!
OK .. I finally started trying to get back to this yesterday (after my computer and cell both crashed) but I'm still having no luck with TouchFlo 2D. I re-formatted my HTC Touch 3050 (Telus, WM 6.1) for the 3rd time this morning, and I'll be re-installing all programs now.
I previously said TouchFlo 2D is great, but it's been frustrating. I cannot use the Internet through the associated tab -- even though I installed Opera as suggested. Now I also cannot access Google Maps, though it is installed, and worked prior to my whole system crashing, and; my phot album won't come up. Oddly though, YouTube worked yesterday (didn't before) before re-formatting this morning.
Is there anything else I need to install to get this working ??
How do I either get Opera to work, or access the internet through Internet Explorer which is already installed?
How do I get Google Maps to work?
How do I get the photo albums to appear?
Thanks very much
Karen
Honestly the best way to get it running is to flash with a rom that has it included. It makes TF2D much faster than just installing the apps anyways. Plus that way it all works and usually the rom also included the tf2d configuration app as well.
Thanks for your help. My HTC Touch crashed again, so it looks like I'll be replacing it. Not sure what I'll be getting, but I may be jumping up to the HTC Diamond (with TouchFlo 3D built in).

My phone has been running fine for months, yet now all of a sudden whenever I try to launch an office mobile app, be it word, excel or powerpoint I see the title bar at the top of the screen, the main screen freezes on touchflo though - the device remains unresponsive (unless I tap start and goto today again) and the software hangs. It seriously takes a good 4 mins or so to start any office mobile app.
Now a few weeks before, Tomtom was doing the same thing - I simply put that down to it being a GPS app.
So has anyone expeienced this? Can anyone offer any help? I REALLY do not want to hard reset.
Did you installed the hotfix from HTC already, or tried a cooked rom?

I have installed the HTC hotfix and I have the original ROM running.
Its not so much the system freezes, its just any office mobile app takes forever to launch..

But as it was running quite well a while ago, it is a software issue at all. So I would suggest to perform a hard reset (or flash a cooked rom).
I actually fixed this,so will let you know the solution for future use..you will be surprised.
What was causing the major hanging was the fact that on Resco Explorer, in options, I had enabled the device to expose the NETWORK folder to other apps (as I have mapped several network drives through Resco), so on disabling this option, office mobile works just fine now and launches instantly! as does Tomtom now too!
Is it me or does the T-mobile Dash 3g randomly closes out of apps. I was in my Internet explorer and it juss closed out. It also does this when i recieve messages. Is it my setting or something because i cant uderstand whats doing this.
Mine too
I have the T Mobile Dash 3g unlocked with win 6.5, same thing started happening today...all apps closing after abiyt 10 seconds. Looking for the problem.
closing
this seems to be a win 6.5 issue, and possibly a problem with SPB software.
I foind this thread but there are others too:
I also found a reference to SK Tools which i also have installed. If I cant find a solution soon, I am going to reset the phone and start a clean slate
reset the phone
well i reinstalled win 6.5 and it was not so bad since i was near the beginning anyway and had all programs saved in one spot. I did not install SKTools this time, i did install SPB online, and so far so good, the apps are staying open.
BTW A GREAT free program is SMARTToolKit which will expand your soft keys and give you lots of quick options....works well.
Yup,it's not all apps, just seems to be IE only. And yes it wont stay open like all the other programs when phone goes to standby. Very annoying. FYI, I'm using 6.1
Dash 3G Apps minimizing
There are few threads on this issue. I have narrowed this down to some change in the registry. I will know which part of the reigstry shorty. After running one of many apps (SPB online, SPB radio, Wunder Radio, Pocket Tunes, SK Tools, even the native Bluetooth app) application windows will not stay open and apps minimze on their own after about 10 seconds. If i restore the registry the phone works fine again. Since this problem spans so many different apps and developers, it is a MS problem. MS may say it is the developers problem, either way someone needs to fix it./
