No Direct3D Mobile for german branded Universals ?

Hello, recently I have been trying to get the Direct3D Mobile capabilites of the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 working on my german T-Mobile MDA-Pro (HTC Universal).
I have tested some applications that use this feature (such as Pocket Jongg 3D ). But they all throw an exception (Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.DriverUnsupportedException)
A lot of users reprorted the same problem (see msdn forum) this seem to include all german branded HTC Universal not just T-Mobile:
The reason for this exception seems to be clear: The direct3d-drivers that come with those devices is not capable of doing direct3d !!!! Now is there a proven way to exchange those drivers? Or another way to make Direct3D Mobile run on an HTC Universal ? Is there anyone with a german HTC Universal that got Direct3D Mobile running ?
Here is another usefull resource.
Now it looks like that my MDA-Pro has none of those drivers listed there, instead I find two dlls:
d3dm.dll <--- size: 50,3 kbyte (seems to be just a dummy file)
D3DMXSc50PB.dll

I have written a little tool that detects the direct3d capabilites of your windows mobile 5 device: http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=174765
It looks like that german HTC Universals do support direct3d mobile, but most games just need some special capabilities that the drivers shipped with all german HTC Universals do not support.
If I only new how to correctly exchange the drivers .....

User Agent problem on Touch Dual ?

I'm using the Orange France version of the TD and I seem to have a problem when browsing with PIE, it's not showing mobile sites like my other PDAs and notable the TyTn II, case in point : the mobile version of eBay http://wap2.bonfiremedia.com/ebayserver/servlet/Controller?Command=WapMainMenu that shows as pure text and doesn't work properly as a result, when the TyTn II shows pretty much like IE or FFox with the picture and formatted menus.
Anyone seen that problem before? I tried tweaking the User Agent with Kaiser Tweak or PIEPlus but no go :-(

got my hands on the qik .cab download

This is for the touch, but I dont see why it wont work on the Hermes. Good luck.
http://s3.amazonaws.com/qik_production/clients/150/Qik_ppc_0.1.10.cab

If you didnt know, this is to stream live video to the internet. It can be viewed at qik.com. I installed it and it launches but then closes right away. Maybe someone who is better at this can have a look and see if it can be made to work.
edit:I extraced the .cab and see that the .xml file has this line; <parm name="OSVersionMax" value="6.0" /> and Im running 6.1. What can I use to recompress this into a .cab after changing that value?

Hey just an fyi
Thanks for posting. I thought I would let you know it worked on my vzw 6800. Previously when I went to dl it said not supported.

Give Livecast a try it works on the 8525

Same problem
Hi-- i just tried the kaiser version on my hermes and it works, but it closes as soon as I hit stream. I'm convinced its because I don't have a chance to log into my qik account and it won't let me stream to whoever's account my cab is set up for. I also don't see why it wouldn't work for mine.
I do use livecast, but I only get 100 mb... at highest settings 300kb/s upstream... usually average around 150 kb in practice, I get about 1.5 hours worth of video. So, i was hoping to be able to get more storage out of qik... if anyone has a fix or workaround for the qik cabs on a hermes I'd love to hear it.
Otherwise, right on with previous poster.. .livecast rules!!!

HTC Touch Cruise 2009 Applications

like to ask whether applications for diamond/pro/HD suitable for use in touch cruise?
any sites got free applications for touch cruise?
i need gprs data counter to prevent me from using over limit.
thx

This phone is a windows mobile (6.1) phone. It is compatible with any windows mobile software. You can look in this forum and elsewhere on the internet, there are plenty of compatible softwares.
There are however some ROM, user interface which are specifically related to one phone and may not be compatible with another. Usually it is indicated as a specific phone software.

thx
lets say if i installed a .cab file to iolite, i realised it's for diamond/pro/HD. Will it hang/corrupt my iolite?
i found some applications but im not sure whether i can use it on iolite. I only afraid crash/hang/corrupt it if i have installed a wrong .cab
*sorry for so many questions..im a new WMuser, my iolite will only arrive nxt week*

the iolite is QVGA, if the software have VGA and QVGA version, you have to choose QVGA...

New HotFix for Htc BlueTooth

Hi ,
I come across this new official HotFix for BlueTooth for HTC on many website.
But it's stated only for HTC Diamond 1, Htc Touch Pro 1 and HTC HD....
Do anyone know if we can install this for TD2???
here is the direct link to download from HTC website
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=0&dl_id=609

Anyone know abt this new HotFix from HTC
Anyone know abt this new HotFix from HTC abt the BlueTooth problem?

It is only listed under the support pages for those devices and nothing noted yet under Topaz.
http://www.htc.com/www/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=249&act=sd&cat=all
Non affected products
HTC devices running Windows Mobile 5.0 are not affected because the OBEX FTP service is not implemented in that OS version.
HTC devices using Widcomm Bluetooth Stack instead of Microsoft Bluetooth Stack are not affected, presently only HTC TOUCH PRO™ 2.
Other vendors’ Windows Mobile devices are not affected either: ASUS, Samsung, LG, ...
I believe the Topaz uses the Widcomm stack like Touch Pro 2, Just keep an eye on the HTC Support page and dont leave Bluetooth on when you dont need it.
Full details of the exploit can be found here;

Although I don't have the ftp tab, so don't need to install it, what does the ftp tab do? (I know what ftp is BTW!)

READ CAREFULY:
Note:
1. This hotfix can only be applied on Diamond2 which has the FTP service preinstalled. Before installing, please first check to see if the FTP service is on your phone by tapping Settings > Communications > Settings > Bluetooth and verifying there is tab named FTP.
2. If there is a pop-up message saying “This hotfix is not compatible with your device,” it means the device has applied the fix already or device doesn’t have the BT FTP service and the phone does not need to install it.
