Control your phone from the computer. - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hello.
Is it possible to control my htc hero from my computer? Send sms and such ?

You can use, Phone Tools is made for the Droid but someone port it to HTC.. here is the thread from Modaco:
http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/294622/moto-phone-portal/
It only works over Wi-Fi no USB support... but still very ez to use.
Hope this helps enjoy.

Or use Screencast for total controll
http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/
Warning, it isn't very fast but workable

I was thinking of something like the program Dashwire.

Microphone emulating tool...

Hello everyone!
My system only has onboardsound which doesnt support microhones so i was considering about a tool that might "emulate" the mic using the one from the phone via Active Sync...
Is this possible and if yes, did anyone create that tool already?
I hope someone can help me
I know there is a program (BluePhone Elite - http://mirasoftware.com/BPE2/) for Macs that lets you use a Windows Mobile phone as a bluetooth headset for your computer. I'm pretty sure someone has done the same for Windows, dont know what that app is called though.

Air Sharing for Windows Mobile?

First things first, I'm not new to the forum...and I apologize for creating a thread for this!
So I was in the iTunes app store for my iPod Touch and I came across this ultimately cool app: Air Sharing
http://www.avatron.com/products/
This program lets you use the iPhone/iPod Touch as a virtual drive, available with pw protection.
Do any of you know if theres something like this for Windows Mobile Phones? Or if someone is interested in developing something like this?
There are apps that will turn the PDA into a USB disk. I prefer just running a small FTP server on the PDA to dump my files via WiFi whenever I need to.
Now if someone could only port a SSH server as well so I could tunnel traffic though SSH, that be sweet.
really? Do you mind posting up the usb app or something like that?
it's called wmstorage i think the most recent one is 1.8 you should be able to search in dev and hack and find it
what type of device do you have?
wm5 storage works really well, also softick card export will show on pc as usb drive. but these are not wireless.
wow thanks a lot for all the suggestions, though the wireless part of air sharing is totally cool. I'll be sure to look into the suggestions tho
So does anyone know how to make something like air share? I have the touch, since I dont like the iPhone..(weird i know) but the touch uses wifi so it couldnt keep a stable internet connection all the time thus not allowing me access files on it all the time as well..
Any chances a developer out there would take a look into something like this?
a Friend had Airshare on his iphone,
he come to me, had my WLAn Key...
he startet Airshare, give me an Link (from his Iphone)
i write it to my Internet Explorer at PC, and TATA, i can download or Upload Files to the Iphone
needs some seconds Time, that i can Upload Files to Airshare
WOW WOW WOW
this is really cool
i search as well an Ap for WM like Airshare.
Bump this thread, very interested in an app like this, used the air sharing today on an iphone and would love to be able to use my phone as a wireless drive. Ive tried things like mocha ftp and can only send from phone to computer not the other way. Appreciate any help with finding an app for winmo!
Thanks in advance.
edit double post.
I use mocha and I can send from the computer to the phone just fine. If you're having problems doing that, try using a dedicated FTP client like FileZilla.
Here is my good deed of the day:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-serversman.html
I tested, checked for any issues and found none. It literally setups your phone as a server.
However, it a very little known app. Play at your own risk.
Very kind. Thank you for your speedy response. This is why I love XDA Devs.
OK. Slightly delayed response here... However, I'm considering switching back to a WinMo phone and ditching the restricted iPhone... However, I would like to ensure that I have the same functionality on my WinMo as I do with my iPhone, so I'm looking for similar or same apps before I make the switch... Looks like "Air Sharing" has a WinMo comparable app: www . mobile-stream . com / airshare . html ... Mobile Stream's "Air Share"...
Does the mobile-stream work for windows mobile to use it as a secondary monitor for computer?
also I notice its only for bluetooth. Is there on for just using internet ?

iPAQ Foldable Bluetooth keyboard ** Solved??

Hi
I have one of those ipaq foldable keyboards (bluetooth) and I'd like to get this working on Windows Mobile 6.1 to use it on my touch diamond.
The original driver which ships with the keyboard doesnt appear to work on Windows Mobile 6.1 (I think its designed for 2003) but it seems the bluetooth layer is working perfectly....
The keyboard itself presents itself as a bluetooth serial port which can be paired and connected to the touch diamond... problem is how to get the serial port used for keyboard input
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved
I've developed a small application which wraps the serial output into the API.
** EXPERIMENTAL ** USE AT OWN RISK **
1. Ensure you have NETCF 3.5 installed on your device.
2. Extract the .exe file from the zip archive and save it somewhere on your device.
3. Pair your keyboard via bluetooth.
4. Create an outgoing serial port (any port from COM1 through COM9)
5. Fire up the saved application.
6. Select the COM port used in #4 above and click on CONNECT - If the connection fails exit application and repeat from step #3
7. Test connectivity by pushing shift/caps lock.
Can't get this to work
Hi there
Tried to install this on an HTC Touch HD and it doesn't work unfortunately... I get an error message but apparently need to install a special cab file from microsoft containing .NET CF 3.5 error messages?
If you feel like having a go at getting this to work would very much appreciate it!

Hi
You just need to install .net framework 3.5 and it should work
Hi!
I only can create COM6 or COM7 as outgoing ports... Any solution? Thank you!

I will amend the application to enable you to specify a COM port.. unfortunately this can only be done when I am home so check back in a few hours....

I've updated the application and the connection process as can be seen in post #2.
Great work!!! It works perfectly.
Only two questions:
It's possible to hide the win keyboard screen?
Could you add -in a future- a key repeat?
Thank you very much!

I'll add keystroke repeat at some stage but its beyond what I originally anticipated so dont hold your breath until then
Some of the special function keys dont function yet either but as they are not really used it didnt make sense to add them initially.
Finally I got the keyb screen hidden, but if I hide it, the space bar key doesn't work. Otherwise this app is very very very usefull .
Andret: Did you try to install Widdcomm Broadcom Stack on your Diamond? I readed somewhere that there's a version compatible with HTC Hermes, I don't know if it can be used with your phone....
I tried to contact with darfon (without response yet) to ask them for the service manual of G950, I disassembled the keyb and there's a jumper connector in the motherboard, I wonder if it's possible to turn it into HID soldering a bridge there...
Greetings and thanks again.

I dont have an issue with spacebar when I hide the popup keyboard.... I do occasionally get an issue when the spacebar doesnt work but I havent figured out what the reason for this is.... it seems to be rather random 1 out of 20 or so times I connect/reconnect the keyboard.
I've never opened the keyboard but I too have wondered about getting it into HID mode since it seems some of the later ones from HP support both HID and SPP.
I've never tried instaling a different type of stack on the phone... the app works fine as it is on my wife's diamond and was originally developed on my touch pro actually until it worked and then off to the diamond... not much use for it on the TP as it has a hardware keyboard.
Thanks!!!
This driver works great! thank you for the effort that you put into it! A friend gave me a Palm Universal Bluetooth Keyboard, and I used your driver to connect to my iPaq 110. Thanks again!
How do I create a COM port?

Sorry for shamelessly bumping an old thread (well about a month)
These ([email protected]#$%^&*()>)
keys don't work for whatever reason. GREAT program by the way. I know my way around c, c#, etc so if you released the source, I might be able to get these to work.
Thanks!

Source code attached including ipaqkbmap which is a small application i used to determine the codes for the various keys... if you follow the source you'll know why this was necessary.
In my case i dont think it was necessary to map those special characters as the WM API managed some of the shift-state issues and did not require anything further....
Either way... free to play with it and see what comes out of it... Have fun

Asus P525 WM5
Thank you .. you are a star
I have a kaiser with wm6.1 and an HP ipaq (darfur 950) foldable keyboard .. heres what i did
- download IPAQKB.exe into storage card
- download HP update 2.0.0.8
- used activesync to update wm6.1 with update 2.0.0.8
- download .NET framework 3.5 compact from (http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en)
- open active sync and then run .NET application but make sure you chose 'custom' installation and put destination as :C\Mobile Device
- use bluetooth programme (start>settings>connections>bluetooth) to find foldable keyboard and tick serial port and also set COM 1 plus untick secure connection in the 'COM port section'
- run IPAQKB and select COM 1
- run foladable keyboard on in Programmes of wm6.1
- tick enalbe keyboard and thats it
p.s my code for keyboard was 0000
Here is the driver for WM6 WM5
Please follow the instruction for installation in the readme file.
Should run on any wm6.
test the hp ipaq bluetooth foldable keyboard with my htc diamond and working great.
Softkey Shortcuts
Does anyone know the shortcut or keyboard combination for Left and Right Softkeys with HP Foldable Bluetooth keyboard? Tq
Thank you so much for this small application. I have been able to pair HP BT keyboard with my HTC Touch HD and it seems to be working fine in Phatnotes. Will save me having to buy another keyboard.

Using HP614c as mass storage device - Like Raphael

Hello there,
I have seen for other HTC type handsets ( Raphael for instance )
when you connect the phone up to the usb port it will come up with the option of connecting via active sync, internet sharing or use device as mass storage drive.
Has anyone produced any software for HP614c that allows you to do this?
and if not is it possible?
as this was the only real advantage from the Touch Pro/Raphael that i could see over my HP614c running keyx rom
I am going to get rid of my Raphael and go back to my beloved HP614c full time . But i will miss this feature as it is useful for work etc
Search for WM5torage
many thanks...
have noticed its acually embedded in the latest ROM anyway
excellent

Netfront Location Free On HTC HD2

Ok the file.cab netfron locationfree for ppc is here. now can any one make this app work with HTC HD2 that would be so greate.
i have manage to install it on this phone but i can only see the image play for a second then quits. can any body make this work on this phone. i will pay for a working netfron location free cab for the HTC HD2
IT OLMOST WORK just need a little twick some hack to make this work
ignore.............
<ignore this post, i didnt mean ignore the thread>
HTC HD2 location free
What do you mean ignore..... don't you have a sony location free player
this software can make a huge thing if some body can make it work on the HD2
you could be watching your cable tv,dvr etc on your 3G phone with a 4.3'' screen just like the psp
ignore.............. let's get to work on this. lets make it work on the HD2
OK.....
I would like to see that as well.. I can't understand that it never really worked on the market.. it works so great..!!
I tried to connect my PSP to the wireless router but apparently the wifi access point on the hd2 is only wireless g, while PSP only uses b mode...
if anyone can make the hd2 wifi router work in 802.11b, that would also be great!
location free on hd2
well it almost work on the HD2 like i said on the top i can see the picture for one second and then quits if there is some body that knows about softwares that can tweak this to work on the HD2 ..............any body........
Would have been easier if you included some links in your first post.
I have no idea what you are talking about. I actually had trouble reading your first post (no offense intended).
If you'd provide a more detailed description of what it does and why it would be interesting to develop, I'm sure you'd be more successful in reaching your goal.
hd2 location free player
well what i'm trying to get is to make this app to work on the HD2 so that we can use it to watch tv... your tv + dvr on your phone just like the psp let's you do that with wifi but if some body makes it work on the HD2 you could do so on 3G any where
Isn't Orb basically doing the same?
I think that because it is a proprietary Sony product it will be pretty hard to find a developer that is willing to put his/her free time into it and actually having one of these..
But maybe it is as simple as changing some software on your phone.
Don't think developers will be able to help you on this one, though.
HD2 location free player
well that's a shame becouse this app is very usefull if you'r on the go and want to watch tv,dvd,dvr etc on your phone
i do not know much about softwarer development otherwise i would give it a try, some could try to make this work and try to get some donations for a working cab to install i'm sure it would be worth it
It does look nice.
However, if you have Orb, a media center PC (like most tech-freaks have at home I could imagine), there wouldn't really be a need for it. Just simply because there are alternatives.
I am also looking for a similar way of streaming TV on the go.
However, then I'd rather see something that would work with a client-host-type of setup whereas TV cards on any computer can be used.
Going to keep an eye on this, because the idea to have TV on the go is very interesting..

Here is the cab
Where is the cab?
I would love to see this too. Especially on TP2. I think the "location free" software is open source from sony now.

net front location free HD2
does any body trying to this to work on the HD2
registration keeps failing.. it finds the base station ok, password ok.. but then says "registration failed". over wifi as over 3G. I think it's because I have a Europian base station. The US pc software also doesn't connect with it.
too bad.. looked very promising.. the app itself runs fine, althought it screws up screen rotation.. but that could be fixed in the registry..
have you tried it with Framework 3.5 installed? (and enabled in the registry, see the sticky tips guide)
location free for ppc
i'm sorry it didn't work for you and i do have Framework 3.5 installed and when run it does not screws up my screen rotation.. what registry fix do you know how can i make it stable or if you know another forum ?.......
