Normally the date syncing range for emails is 3, 5, 7, and 30 days, or ALL and for exchange account it is 1 days, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, ALL. Does anyone know a way to make a longer range without using the ALL option, like adding 3, 6, 12 month ranges?
It's really weird that 1 month is the longest range ms put in before ALL. It's kind of like telling a cop that his weapon range consists of handcuffs, steel toed boots, an ASP and a 40mm Bofors gun.

Hi guys,
I have been reading up on software such as IP Dashboard monitor and such, as a means of calculating what my mobile phone useage is as I go. Such software though only takes into consideration free minutes, which is useless to me.
IS there any software out there that actually allows you to set peak/offpeak times,
-enter a peak/offpeak rate per ?? seconds for landline calls
-peak/offpeak rate per ?? seconds for mobile calls
-special call rates (eg calling a particular number for 10 cents per 10 minutes)
Is there such a program that allows for such flxibility??? It would however, need to convert with currencies and such. Im in Austraila. Such a program would be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo useful for alot of us. Any help would be appreciated.
there is phone dashboard by hudsonmobile.com who does what u want.
Sorry, thats the one I tried. I meant that one, by Hudson. Are you trying to tell me that it can do what I asked? When I went through the options, all it said I could do was set a monthly free limit, bucket size, and thats about it. I didnt find any options where I could specify an exact amount per 30seconds, or per 10 seconds., peak or off peak.
I want the same functionallity, and also have the possibility to use prepay cards and have sms cost tracking.
Contacted Hudson mobile, but there software can't do this.
Haven't found anything else yet.
I've been using Phone Dashboard by HudsonMobile for a few months now and love it. There is a "round up to 1 minute" function that you can deselect to get seconds. More importantly, though, I had a problem with how they calculated their usage graph, which started on the 1st day of the month. I needed it to start on the 9th, my billing start date. I emailed them and within a few days they had changed the software!!! They were very responsive and willing to update their software to meet market needs. I would continue to try them and send them an email ([email protected]). I'm sure if it isn't in there now, they would like to add it to make the software work for more people and increase their market potential. Also, I sent them an email telling them about this forum so they could help out.
Hope this helps, since I don't know of any other software that comes close

I've been using it too for nearly 3 months and it is a great product, the devlopement team is really very firendly.
The 1.1 version does almost all what you need but it can only track minutes and seconds not yet prices, i think it is upcoming in the next realeases.

I've set my start date as 15th but the only display that seems to use this is the call list. The today screen scrolling display and the graphs still show the usage from the 1st of the month, am i missing something?
Make sure you download the latest version from Handango - it will give you Monthly Usage from the first day of your billing period - many people found the previous implementation very confusing. The Plan Tracker should always be keyed to the first day of your billing period.
So what you are really looking for is something that can look in your contact list and weather you call out or pick up a caller id comming in be able to catagorize the minutes you just used into one of the many diffrent types each plan allows. Like mobile to mobile, nifghts and weekends, free, and of course the ever dreaded pay per minute. and when you get done with a call if the software couldn't tell what type of call it was because it wasn't in your contact list it would ask you to tell it what it was so it would know next time.
Yes that would be something that would be the best thing since sliced bread and would sell as fast as hot cakes. Boy is this making me hungry. :lol:
With previous versions of the Pocket PC operating systems to Windows Mobile 5.0 there were sensible snoozing periods for alarms. 5, 10, 15, 30, 60 minutes plus (if I remember correctly) 2, 4, 8 hour delays and 1 and 7 day periods.
With WM 5.0 we get 5 and 15 minutes, or 1 hour or 1 day.
Does anyone know a way to increase the number of options available? whether through hacking the registry or through some 3rd party software?
Or is this another enhancement of WM 5.0?[/i]
I've had my Athena for a few days now, and here's what I like / don't like
+
Gorgeous screen
Vastly superior data connections than Tytn (on T-mobile). VPN is usable
GPS
Camera a cut above the norm
-
Not usable as a phone without mike/headphones; no phone call/answer buttons
Battery life, esp with GPS (a day max)
Bulk, esp with leather pouch
Internet Sharing / Bluetooth PAN is a +, but the Toshiba stack on this Vaio insists on assigning a fixed ip address and no DNS server to the connection
As others have noted, google maps does not seem to work with GPS; MS local live seems to be US version, despite claiming to be UK version.
Cd be snappier
mail button does not cycle through email accounts, as it did on the Tytn/Vario II.
£
No bluetooth remove camera support
Agree with all that, would add:
-
stylus looks cheap
sim card hard to swap, no way to get a dual sim card holder in
TomTom only including one city map
+
Much more responsive than my old XDA Exec, especially phone pad
MS Live is working great for me in UK, with built in GPS

yes, full W Europe tomtom is £60+ if you can get through the maze to get to it.
where did you get ms live?

Stylus too short for my grip, and screen is not suitable for outdoor.
I like the Ameo stylus - Clear Perspex looks good! Or there's always the pen/stylus that T-Mob included which is useful.
I got live using the links on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Must_have_tools
Just installed the UK version from from Jump.
I'm quite impressed with the battery, considering the screensize, and the amount of gadgetery included. Just wish the battery/sim bit was better designed to facilitate a larger battery (like my old Axim) and dual sim.
Ahh, found the settings to configure the MS Live Search location.
How long does the battery hold up for?
Me myself I use a Dell Axim X51v with a 3300mAh.
I can go up to: ((Processor on auto)
*6 hrs on constant Bluetooth & WiFi
*9 hrs average use (some BT & WiFi 1 1/2 hrs)
*12 hrs below-average usage (with some Bluetooth)
*17 hrs (solely running as a Mp3 player)
I'm not looking for it to outshine but how does it hold up battery wise?
Too early to be precise, but it's less than 1 day.
Part of the problem may be my VPN settings and Tomtom running in the background.
Battery
I barely get through a day wih minimal use. Tomtom (Plus) to work and back (1hr total), check one email account every 5 minutes (haven't got push email configured yet), 2 - 3 calls, 5 - 10 texts, 2 -3 emails, 10 - 15 mins web browsing. I go from 100% to 20% in 14 hours.
I just had mine last over TWO days with minimal use and still battery left, could have gone for 3 days.
I hope everybody is doing a complete charge/discharge (untill it turns off) for the first 2 battery charges at least when they buy a phone like this.
Battery conditioning makes a HUGE difference.

Agreed, the result are that much better afterwards...
Hey guys I would like to get some feedback from you on what you do to get the best battery life. especially if you class your self as a power user or use the device for work purpose as well.
With me I have exchange email running for my work email, i have my hotmail/live account in real time sync and without even using it for calls I was probably getting to midday before the battery was depleted. I have bought my self the extended heavy duty "JayLo" battery which gets me through the day.
I do prefer to have the screen on full brightness as I am on the move and have 3G/HSDPA enabled as i need to check emails/browse to links to download files/attachments.
You've posted in the HD2 forum but your sig says Touch PRO
In any event, you could try a number of things to squeeze a bit more life out of your battery.....
1. Make sure BT / WiFi are OFF except if/when you need to use them.
2. If your phone is unlocked, try another radio - if signal strength is an issue where you are, your phone could be spending a lot of time/power searching for and/or hanging on to a decent signal.
3. Change the "peak times" values for ActiveSync to just be 09:00 to 17:00 (or appropriate working hours) and set the frequency to be "every 5 mins" or so - I don't think waiting 5 minutes for an email is OTT; they can take longer than that to arrive sometimes by the time several mail servers have virus scanned them half a dozen times!!!
4. Close any unnecessary applications; it won't make that much difference to your overall power consumption but, as the saying goes, "every little helps"!!!
See how you get on with that lot - I'm sure others will have some input before too much longer

hey thanks- god its been so long since i had that device never got around to changing my sig...
Do you use exchange email on yours. iv found i always get random lags on custom roms that im using when iv got exchange email running. i normaly just sync past month... stock roms are as stable as anything for me just damn borning to look at! lol
I had a moto z since mid 2016, a week ago it fell from a table while it was charging and the screen cracked, a day later it just turned black and right now i have no money to replace it or get a new phone, so i'm using my dad's old lumia 630. I've found replacements for almost every app i used on android (and i don't expect to use this phone for longer than 1 or 2 months so i don't care much about that) but the windows phone interface just looks so basic and incomplete, is there any way to add more toggles to the notification bar, make software buttons hide while watching youtube & add a spotify widget to the lockscreen? these are the thing that annoy me the most. Also would appreciate if anyone knows of a decent instagram client that lest's me use dm's and stories
