Complete newbie - need some help - HD2 General

Hi everyone,
I have just received my HTC HD2 and want to start to take advantage of all the great advice / apps on this site ( I have joined joined the site too and its amazing )
I believe I have to download resco before I can do anything. Can anybody tell me where to get it from and more importantly how to download it and get it working..??
Any help is much appreciated - sorry for being a novice!!

You can get Resco Explorer from Resco's website (http://www.resco.net). Note that it's not free although a time-limited trial is available.

Thanks for that...

Is there a good free file explorer?

Try Total Commander.

Anybody
Anybody ??
Your best bet is to download an Infocom games interpreter (called a "Z-Machine", google it) and the relevant gamefiles. Then it's a matter of tastes, but you probably want to start with "Wishbringer".
Request
Could you please add the .cab files onto here ?
Thank you very much for your help

Here it is..emulator (copy it to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs) and a game file (Zork I) which you can place in My Docs or in some subfolder of MyDoc.
Here you can find out more about txt based games and download some more Zork games.

Guys and gals, don’t forget to check out my brand new, MS-DOS / x86 emulation-related article at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884
(Sorry for flooding – IMHO, this article certainly deserves attention because it answers ALL the questions a Windows Mobile user may want to EVER ask about emulating MS-DOS. Make sure you read it!)

hi
thanks for the download link. this is a bit cheeky to ask but do you know if i can get the softare for free.
Thanks
A bit cheeky he says...try rude
Resco Explorer, $24.95 = £13.11, why dont ya do decent thing and BUY IT!!!
PS: this is partly a developers forum, ie the people who write software, the people who wouldnt mind (and deserve) a little come back. Why dont ya just tell them they all suck at writing software whilst ya at tryin to save £13.
PPS: Its probably a no :roll:

Browse computer files through hermes ???

Sorry in advance if this question has been previously posted, i have been trying to search for an answer but no luck, i used search and i read the heading of almost every post in this website....
Well anyway I am trying to browse my homes wireless network shared folders throught my hermes, model dopod 838 pro bought in australia with 3 hutchingson, settings.
I love my phone but it have been exploring it for weeks now trying to see how i would do this, but cant find anything, there are a lot of networking stuff available in the phone which i dont understand so maybe i missed the spot???
I was thinking though that if i was able to do this, it would be through file explorer.
anyone can point me in the rght direction ?
Thank you in advance.
AFAIK, the hermes cannot do this 'out of the box'. If you install Resco file Explorer it does have this capability though.

Thanks
Thank you for such a quick response, i am looking at it now.
will post and lt you know how i go.
does anyone know how to do this over a vpn? resco doesn't seem to work
Any other programs ?
i have installed resco suite and am using it now... but it is not free, the price isnt that much really but before i buy anything i would like to know if there are any others which wuld do the job that i can trial ??? also a little bit lighter ???

Advice on several items please

Hey guys and gals. Right, i'm a newbie to all this stuff. Although i have managed to change my t-mobile theme to that of the black HTC theme. I've got a t-mobile mda compact iv and i'm really keen on wanting to expand my knowledge.
I tried to download a couple of games from the t-mobile site, but couldn't quite manage to get them to work. Maybe i didn't save them to the correct place.......
Where and how do i do this.
Also can someone explain to me the 'manilla editor', 'system config', 'total commander' and the best way to get some more themes etc.
Sorry if you've all heard these requests before, but once i get to know my way round a bit more, i won't need to ask such mundane questions.
Thanking you in advance

Well, it's not surprising that newbies ask such "mundane" questions, as most applications really don't explain what they are, and names can be misleading
Perhaps the mods could edit certain obscure application threads so that it's not so opaque?
Anyway, manilla is the name of the touchflo 3d application - hence the manilla editor allows you to change certain functions, tabs, etc.
System config is just that, a nice pretty front end to registry tweaks for the phone.
Total commander is a decent replacement for the native file explorer, and does more too.
Most apps can be installed to internal storage - there are exceptions, especially if they tie closely into the OS (manilla, etc). As it stands though, you've only really got two choices on where to install, try internal storage first, if it doesnt work, try main memory.
Most PPC based applications are installed using a cab file - you copy this to the device, then just run it using file explorer to install. Some are windows installers that will automatically do the copy and run the cab for you.
And thats about it
Thanks very much for your reply. It's starting to make sense now
Further on to that, where is the best place to install the manilla editor, system config to
