Hello,
I recently purchased an O2 XDA Orbit, and I am very happy mith my new mobile apart from one thing. On my old mobile (Samsung D500) and previously a Nokia, I have had a software package provided with them that is able to manage SMS / MMS to either view/delete/save.
But the most usefull function is to be able to send/recieve SMS via desktop application (using a keyboard), as at work I don't want them to see how often I use my mobile. Also, as it takes quite alot of time to write an SMS/Reply it is alot easier to use a keyboard.
So I am woundering if anybody knows a software package that will do all of the above on Windows Mobile 5?
Cheers Guy
You can use Jeyo Mobile Companion. That does the same..
Hi Guys
Ok i need some help.
I have just got my new X1 and i cant connect for to Windows Messenger using the app pre installed on the phone. I cant connect the phone to the internet using wifi and 3g without any problems, and i can even use the online version of messenger at mobile.live.com.
Another problem that i have with the Windows Live app is that when i try and synch it always says that its failed. I have set up my live email and that is fine i can receive and send without any problems.
I tried using the Windows Live Panel and its just the same outcome..
Anyone got any ideas ?
Thanks
Maybe you have to setup what elements of the account have to be syncronized.
Are there any apps out there that do the same thing as mdesktop or jeyo?
manage your SMS messages through your PC, write messages, reply, delete, forward, etc..
I use Jeyo all the time when my phone's running Windows Mobile, but as I'm spending more and more time using Android, I really could do with a desktop app to make writing messages easier.
(I use an HD2 btw)
I am also searching ..but no luck ! previously i used Nokia and SE. both have good desktop client. But I cant even find a good pc suite like those neither a good tool to SMS.
Anyone can help ?
As it says just in-case you haven't seen it yet, but be warned it is based on Nero 10 with a bit of Dell stuff thrown in, anyways heres the direct download link
http://www.nero.com/link.php?gen_id=10&to=9999&installmd5=mhubdell&prg=installmhubdell-1.exe
Hmmm, 140+mb install you can tell it was made by Nero
/edit and it's trying to spam me with toolbars, another Nero habit.
Tested it last night.. Seems like an unfinished version, it asks me to purchase the full version to be able to sync, not just import :s
And furthermore, dell update screen specifies that this should also have outlook sync capabilities.. I don't understand how that will be possible though.

Agree with the comments above. I also found that after downloading and installing it, it then told me that there were updates available! And of course it requires a reboot each time (why on earth should the installation of a PDA sync program require an operating system reboot?!)
The lack of Outlook synchronisation is a disaster for me. I don't do GMail, and all my contacts/diary/to dos/notes are in Outlook. Windows Mobile Device Centre may have had its problems, but at least it let me synchronise my WinMo phones with Outlook.
Surely Dell can't remove this functionality with the roll-out of 2.2?

From what i have read it will do all the outlook stuff but onlly when 2.2 is on board
its an office 2010 64bit problem, its not an android problem.
ONLY Apple with itunes has made a fix for it, for what i know.

Why in the world would Dell go to a sync program with 64 bit issues when by default, ALL Dell laptops come with 64 bit Win7 installed????
it is not an office 2010 problem. it is a activesync problem. activesync has no 64 bit support. running office 2010 32 bit on 64 bit windows works fine. the activesync thus also the dell sync program work fine as they rely on activesync.
btw if you look in the market and search for dell you will find the dell (nero) backup program. while you wait for the update to come next week , one can make a backup allready

cause it works with 32 bit office.
furthermore there is a windows phone 7 sync software which runs 64 bit.
hopefully this will be used instead of activesync.
Works for me with Windows 7 64 bit. First I deleted ADB interface in device manager and restarted. That may not be necessary. After the ADB interface has been reinstalled by Windows I started the new mobile sync manager and it recognized the Streak quickly under devices. After removing the USB connection it may take 1 or 2 tries reseating the USB plug in the computer before the Streak is being recognized again. A little fickle, but it works.

Can you tell me what works? Backup/Restore or Synchronise with Outlook.
.. And with 1.6 Streak or 2.1 / 2.2?
BTW: I can also get it recognized in Dell Mobile Sync software, but only if i select "Copy media files to/from your computer(MTP)" mode on the streak
On Dell Sync Manager it works in "Charge only" mode..
if you have office 2010 64 bit there is NO WAY to directly sync outlook contacts (and so on) with ANY device EXCEPT iphone DOT

Where exactly is the ADB interface? I went to control panel/system/device manager and looked through all of the entries, nothing labeled ADB interface was there.

It is a subsection of Android phone. If you have no Android phone listed, then try a different USB port, etc.

Backup/Restore AND synchronize with Outlook both work. A disclaimer here, I use 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate, but still use 32-bit Office 2007, and Outlook is still version 2003.
The first time I tried synchronize the Dell Mobile software crashed. However, after upgrading it works fine now. Remember, to sync you have to have "USB connected" set to "off".
By the way, reconnecting to Dell Mobile Sync always seems to take a few tries of plugging in and re-plugging the USB cable.

The Dell Mobile Sync will only work if you have the "Dell Sync" app on your Streak. It did come with Steve's 2.2 version 1.2 (what I am using now) and, presumably, will be included in the official Froyo. To sync 1.6 or 2.1 you can use the original Dell software.
Other Outlook Sync Methods
For those who cannot sync because they use Outlook 2010 64 bit or are having other problems, there are other solutions to sync Outlook with the Streak. syncdroid.net lists most of them in a chart. Cross reference the software with what you want to sync (calendar, contacts, notes, tasks), how you want to sync (wireless, wi-fi, usb), and your Outlook version to get your solutions. Many of them are free.
Slightly off topic but is there anyway of stopping the Dell Sync app from appearing on my phone when I connect it to my PC as I now just sync with google contract and google calendar and have no need for Dell Sync?
What exactly is included with the new sync software?
According to this site http://www.syncdroid.net/dell-mobile-sync, the new (Nero) version of Dell Mobile Sync will only synchronise Contacts from Outlook, and will not synchronise Calendar, Tasks or Notes. It also says that Dell are removing their Tasks and Notes applications from the 2.2 build.
Can anybody who has upgraded to 2.2 please confirm that this is the case?
Hello everyone.
I would like to install Android on an HTC HD2, the only problem I'm facing is how can I backup contacts and SMS Messages on windows phone, and then restore them back when Android is installed?!
All I could find online is how to back them up, restore them IF I keep Windows Phone installed
I appreciate any kind of help

No no, Exchange server, is microsoft's "google sync" i never used a windows phone, but i know in windows mobile i was able to backup my contacts to an xml file then used an online converter to convert it to vcd to be restored in android. And in windows mobile i used smschat to backup my inbox. Look in the windows phone store for any type of backup software and get back to me with them and i'll see what sort of conversions i can do.
