Any reasons why not? Im on Windows XP yet it comes up a warning saying that it will only work on computers with XP!
This is very frustrating...
Is there any other way to link my phone up to my computer? I would really like to transfer some music onto it
Have you got SP2 installed?
I cant, I dont have a genuine Windows.
Do you NEED SP2? Surely there is a way around this...
I can download activesync 3.8 but I think I need the drivers for the phone?
Any help... PLEASE!?!
I've had the same problem with my XP version
impossible also to install an update from windows site
I had to install an update on my windows 2000, that worked
and then activesync 4.1 finally worked 100%
other way to work around that was to download things on XP
put them on my old SPV E200 with activesync 3.7 wich works
and then send the things on my SPV M3000 by bluetooth...

Or get a Legit copy of Windows XP!!!
You run a pirate operating system then compalin when software doesn't work with it properly.
Come back when you have a license. Is your Wizard stolen as well?
hmmm dude...
the post isnt if its right or wrong to steal windows! Its to do with how we can cheat them more!
I think the only way round this is to download a crack to get xp2.
If I could find the drivers for the phone would it work on activesync 3.8?
PS. No my phone is not stolen, Im sure you have a copied CD in your collection somewhere too.
There's a vast number of copied XP versions with SP2 pre-installed available out there. Should be all you need.
I can get a legal copy of windows xp from somewhere...
But to install it would I loose all of my documents?
chrisredmayne: it would be in your interest to backup your docs (and whole system) before installing SP2, even if your windows is legit. It's a big install!
You could make your own SP2 install disk, by "slipstreaming" SP2 into a windows install disk. Also, there are cracks for SP2, and there are also cracks for trial versions of windows.
I imagine the ActiveSync install could probably be cracked to skip the SP2 check, but it's not a long term solution.
I don't recommend any of this. When you start using SP2 and Windows in the future, you'll have to have a legitimate copy to download certain updates from Microsoft, so you might as well get hold of a legit windows, one way or the other. OEM copies are stupidly cheap, and you can even buy an OEM Media Center install for a small amount of money.

there is a piece of software at
http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2 called "card export II"
allows you to make the wizard look like a mass storage device, so activesync is not needed to transfer to the storage card.
ps (takes a few goes to install)
I dont get how to install it, only looked at it for a minute though. I unpacked all of the files, and it asks to open a prc file? and press hotsync on the cradle... (Guess that means phone).... Stumped
if i remember correctly .prc files are for palm user's not pocket pc.
i think you have downloaded the wrong version!
Use cardreader to download into mSD, anything you want:
Music, apps, but you need cab files to install it from mSD card.

aliendad, can you confirm you actually have Softick Card Export II for Pocket PC working on a wizard device? I have tried this on my k-jam and it didnt work at all. Even when i contacted Softick support they have said they are still working on a WM5 / Wizard compatible version.
EDIT: i just went and downloaded v2.10 of CE2PPC (which funnily enough isnt even mentioned on the website). In the setup i downloaded, i found there is a WM5 ARM install cab however this still fails to install on my Wizard / K-JAM as with all the previous versions.
Thanks

You need a minimum of SP1. You do not need SP2. For ActiveSync 4.1. If you cannot pass the genuine validation tool you need to enable automatic updates and to install them automatically. You cannot use the Windows Update site. If you set to install Critical Updates automatically it should bring down SP2 (as it is considered a Critical Update)
Also you can just download SP2 (the full install) and you should be able to install it. It should not require validation as you can install it if not connected to the network.
Although the above may not work if you truly have a messed up version of XP. I am assuming you have either a cracked version of a legit copy or an invalid product code.
I have read about people cracking XP Media Center 2005 and all worked well until the Genuine Validation tool. Then somebody came out with a crack for that. :lol:
Good Luck
I just got a disk with XP so I think its a fake validation code that I have.
I downloaded the SP2 from the windows update site, and from a random site somewhere that I searched on google for.
The problem was that when I tried to install it stopped after a few minutes and said that it wasnt a genuine windows. So Im guessing any version that I download will have the same check on it.
But I shall try and turn my updates on later and see if it works, or give that other program a go!

yes, is does work, had to do a lot of soft reseting but now have a quick access icon at the bottom of the screen to select card export or active sync.
a few days ago did a hard reset, and installed card export as one of the first installs and it installed much more smoothly that the earlier install.
ps great prog makes things much easier, can't install activesync at work.
Hi im new to this forum, but it comes highly recommended.
Im having trouble accessing my files on the smartphone through my PC. I had the phone previously before i gt a new one and by going to the my mobile device folder in my computer i could access all the files on the phone when it was connected. Though now on the same phone bt everytime i try to access these files the window itself just closes. I am able to do everything else on the phone but to put mp3 I have to use windows media player and place it on the storage card.
I have tried everyhing from reseting the phone to its original status and upgrading the rom. Please can some one help me as I like to use this way to transfer films and videos to the phone and check other folders. Or if anyone knows of another way to transfer movie files and mp3s to the phone.

It does not seem like there is something wrong with your phone but with your desktop! Try to delete the partnership in ActiveSync.
If you have the know-how you also might remove the drivers for your mobile device manually on your desktop.
uninstall ActiveSync completely and then reinstall (maybe the latest version???)
At least I would try that first ...
How would I remove the drivers from my mobile device manually on the desktop.
I have already unistalled the active sync and downloaded the latest version but i'll try it again.
Thankyou
What phone do you have, what version of ActiveSync do you use, and how do you connect to your PC (USB or BT)?
I have an O2 xda mini, I connect via usb and I have version 4.5 of active sync.
Did you delete the partnership yet? After deleting the partnership, can you connect as a guest and then access your phone via Windows explorer?
I just deleted the partnership and tried going through windows explorer. Once I click on mobile device and go into the folder. The same thing happens as when there is a partnership. I click to go into a folder (any folder) and the windows explorer crashes and the error report comes up asking me to debug or send error report. This is a constant thing no matter what i try
Do you have access to another computer? If so, try using that one. If you don't have any problems, then the problem lies in your computer. I recommend getting a registry cleaner to scan and repair any registry errors.
hi everyone...I have a Fujitsu Siemens Pocket LOOX N100 that runs on wm5.I wonder if somebody knows a way to get it into service mode because I want to replace the GPS software that comes with the unit, not only because the maps are way out of date, but because the don't have a map for my country. I would like to install iGo because I have it on another GPS and I love it...
Thanks in advance...
Loox N100 does not run WM 5.1 but WinCE 5.0
To access the device you need to enable ActiveSync und the device.
I join two CAB files in order to enable or disable ActiveSync.
Just rename the file you need to MN6-update.cab and put in root of miniSD card (save original one first) and reset device.
After that you can access the device via ActiveSync and install whichever software you like.
If you want to enable ActiveSync and start on a clean desktop you should use the CAB file attached.
In there you have
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Launch50"="explorer.exe"

first of all I want to thank you Sabo, I'm really looking forward to get back from my trip and test those cabs...
but first let me see if I got it wright:
1.the loox_n100_enable...zip are the files to enable/disable the activesync, but would I have access to the WM menus??I ask this because the N100 starts in a kiosk mode
2.the MN6_update.cab - is going to start the N100 in explorer mode not kiosk??
I have a Loox n110 running TT6 and I got all my hacking info from here . It's a very long thread going back 3 years but it has everything you need to know. I installed the iLooks desktop starting off with the Active Sync cab trick as mentioned to access WinCe.
Hope you find it useful.
hi..thank you very much guys for all the help...until now I wanted to sell the n100 but now I'm again very happyyyy, I can barelly wait to start experimenting...
Forgot to mention that with a Mini SD to Micro SD adapter I can run a 16gb memory card on it so you can really load it up - no wifi though.

Don't sell this fine piece of hardware.
Where els do you find a PND with removable battery which is this small and where you can disable static navigation in order to use it easily for geocaching or other things.

I can only see the first 4 GB of a microSDHC card.
Do you have a driver in order to see the rest of the card?

My mistake sorry although the system recognises the capacity of the 16gb card when I actually browse the folders not all files are showing. I forgot this as I don't use this card usually in the Loox.
It does recognise all files on my 8gb microSDHC card, however. My built in driver is "SDHC_SC2410.dll". I haven't installed any other drivers myself.
Mine is the Loox n110 with the built in flash drive of 2gb using driver "FLASHDRV.dll". Not that it would affect the reading of the SDHC memory.
Hope that answers your question.
Hello all, I know it is a very very old topic !
But I found in my father's place this old Loox N100 piece of tech and I was trying to do some stuff with it.
I managed to access Windows CE 5 thanks to those CAB file provided about this topic.
But then I can't install or modify anything.
Can someone help me to update the maps of the GPS or install a more recent one please?
I have been searching for hours on internet but I can't find how to do. I don't understand the use of ActiveSync neither. My PC is running on Windows 11.
I tried to copy some exe or cab file to the Mini SD card, but when I want to install them from the device, I have an error "xxx is not a valid windows CE setup file"
Anybody could help me achieve something with this old tech?
Thanks a lot and sorry for the old post.
BTW: Since I used the CAB file above, I always boot on Windows CE first and also the USB connection to the PC doesn't open the SD Card anymore. I tried to use the "disable activesync" CAB file above, but it continues to boot on Windows CE and USB connection still not work.
Anyone with knowledge of this old tech can help me figure out a few things ?
At least how to revert it back to normal haha
Thanks
Hi,
Since I bought HTC Trophy I am trying to find how to use TomTom or IGo,
Is there anyway to do that ?
Thanks
Nope. But you can try this one.

I have tried many times to unlock the phone, but no luck
Will wait for a reliable unlock solution

Unlock works just fine. You only have to reunlock it every time you connect it to your computer (which I barely do as I use Wireless Sync).
I would love a TomTom version for WP7...I've been using TomTom for years on my 2002,2003,5.0,6.0, 6.1 and 6.5 WM/PPC devices (yes, I have had PPC devices from 1.0).
I hope Tomtom comes on board for WP7...
:/
As far as I know TomTom oficially said that they are not interested in Windows P 7 for now :/
When I tried and used both TomTom and Navigon for quiet a while, I prefered Navigon. So I'm glad it is Navigon who jumped on WP7 train
navi
I got Sygic Aura on my iPhone and in my opinion this is the best navi.

With a WP7 interface, it might have to do... I will admit I tried both before and I liked TomTom better but, that's just me.

Hi, you do not have to reunlock your phone. Check on xda forums, there is a simple method to prevent relocking of phone, I have just updated to NoDo and my phone, HTC Trophy, is still unlocked and all side loaded apps are still working.
A few simple steps to unlock and keep it that way:
Phase1:
-----------------------------
1. Do not update to NoDo yet.
2. Install windows phone SDK to a windows 7 pc or windows xp sp3 pc and Zune
3. install the reg file on the PC!
4. disable your PIN verification on the phone
5. Disable your screen timout on the phone, put it always on.
6. Send an email to yourself with the chevron's certificate file and open the email on the phone. Tap the attachment with the certificate file, tap again and chose install your phone should say developer certificate installed.
7. connect the phone to your pc, make sure the Relationship in Zune is not Guest (change it by clicking there on Guest and following screen instructions)
7.1 Close any other software on the pc: skype,yahoo, all, let only Zune running.
8.Minimize Zune and open Chevron's Unlocker, click Unlock it should take no more than 2 seconds. To check if everything is ok after unlocking close Chevron's software,and open it again, now the button should say Relock, if it says Relock your phone has been succesfully unlocked and you can proceed to phase 2.
Phase2:
------------------------
1.Get Tom's Xap installer (google it)
2.Install TouchExplorer and HTC Connection Setup
3.Install the unlockit.xap from this forum to make the phone stay unlocked, and after, run it from the applications menu (it should appear at the bottom of the list as XBMOD.Files.Deployer).
4. Using touch explorer copy \My Documents\My Ringtones\CustClear.provxml to \Windows\
5. Run HTC Connection Setup, pres the check button (that "v" mark) and let it finish.
6. You are done
This has worked for me. After applying all these steps you can now update your phone via Zune. If, somehow your phone gets relocked again use this to unlock it:

Now, we all know that there is no true GPS turn by turn software available yet. But, Navigon has release a version of their navigation software only for T-Mobile users, that's a pain in the a** for others right? Do a search on the google for a patched xap of the navigon software that workes for any SIM provider you have: NAVIGON_MobileNavigator_patched.xap.
Steps to get it work:
1. Download and install the app with Tom's XAP installer.
2. Enable Data Connections on your phone (don't worry, it's smart enough not to use your 3G connection to download any huge data )
3. Open Navigon Select, it will ask you for activation press ok, it will now simply activate using your 3G/EDGE/whatever you have connection, again don't worry it uses almost 2 or 3KB of data for this.
4. Now it will ask you to connect to a WiFi hotspot for it to download it's main data files,it will not work on your 3G connection.
5. Connect to a WiFi hot spot and let it download all the data needed.
6. After it's done you have a fully working GPS software, but only with Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
7. To get any maps you want do a google search for navigon maps, mainly for 1.7 version.
Installing maps:::
You either get the maps the normal way or you search for navigon 1.7 iphone maps wich come in an .ipa extension. This you can extract with Uniextract and find the required .map files inside.
OK so I presume you have all the .map files you need. Now to be able to put them on the phone you first need to apply the registry trick on the pc so your phone will appear as a device in My Computer (search google for this registry tweak: windows phone 7 as mass storage).
Now copy on the phone in My computer all the .map files you need.
Afterwards open TouchExplorer on your phone, navigate to \my documents\zune\content\0400 and there you will see the files but with a strange extension and name. You have to rename each file with the right map name and the extension .map (austria.map, france.map etc). After you have renamed all the files (please be patient, renaming large map files such as france will take some time so don't freak if your app will appear as frozen, it is not) copy them to the following folder:
\Applications\Data\6F9CB464-BDA......\Data\IsolatedStore\map
There you will see the already existing maps, copy your .map files here, also please be patient!! it will take some time depending on how may maps you have.
I strongly advise you to disable the screen timeout also untill you have finished copying the files!!!
When it's done you can open the Navigon Select and chose a country you have copied, it should appear if you have don all the steps wright.
Mention that if you change your simcard and HTC Connection Setup runs to auto setup your data connection you will need to open Navigon and activate it again, your maps will still be there do not worry.
Good luck!
I couldn't make Australian map working, it is only for people from Europe.
If you open the map it shows Europe and countries around Mediterarenian Sea

The following work for WM6, I don't know anything about android versions:
Transfer music: Hook up the phone to the computer and set it to be a storage device. Then open up Windows Media Player and sync your music.
Transfer apps: Hook up the phone to the computer and set it to be a storage device. Then copy the .cab files to the phone and use Total Commander: find the file and click to install.
You don't have to sync your PC to transfer files and applications to the phone. The computer does have to recognize the device as a USB storage device. If that is not happening there may be a problem with your USB port.
It is not the ROM; I am using NRG myself.
