[Q] Android on Motorola MC65 - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
My company has recently developed an application. This is a single page application for data collection.
The app works fine on android / IOS devices in the native browser.
However, we have a whole fleet of the Motorola MC65 devices. They run windows mobile 6.5 and they do not properly load the page.
Can anyone give any advice on a possible rom for this device?
Thank you so very much.
Robert

Hello Robert
We are in a similar situation with around 20 of those MC65 devices and would like to migrate them to Android. Have you eventually been successful in achieving this?
Thanks for letting me know!

Can a Palm OS platform run simultaniously on a WM6 phone?

Hi guys, I have an HTC touch (sprint) and got a job with a air balancing company and they have software that links their ppc's to their server for live data entry. however the application is only available for the palm os. Does anyone know if installing multiple OS's on a phone is even possible, like installing linux on an ipod? or if not, any way to convert a palm os application to WM6 combatible application. If needed, i have the install files for my application, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If nothing exists i would even consider payment for the application to be convtered if anyone is intrested.
Thank you
Matt
you would probably have to build the application up again from the ground up if its a native palm application, although, if its written in a common language, i dont see why it couldnt be ported over
somebody more knowledgable should be able to help you better
and welcome to xda-devs
you can use styletap to run palmOS apps on windows mobile, if this is what you want to do.
Well, im 50% there, styletap works great, im able to load the software and run it, no glitches yet, however styletap doesnt seem to be allowing the application to sync with my server. any1 have any ideas? i even tried first establishing a data conn in WM6 using IE and hopped back to style tap to sync again. no luck

[Android] Lock down user interface ?

Hello all,
I have been tasked to look into possible lock down of user interface for Android phones. Previously, we built custom mobile application for Windows Mobile and used SPB Kiosk Engine to perform lock down so that users can only run our application on windows mobile devices.
I would like to find out whether it is possible to perform similar lock down on Android Phones (limiting the functionalities) and start up with just our custom built android application. It would be best if there are existing lock down applications which can do this (similar to SPB Kiosk engine). If not, the only way would be to compile custom firmware ?
Hope anyone who has ideas of this topic can shed some light.
Thanks in advance!

Hello all,
did some research on the web and didn't manage to find anything regarding lock down on Android mobile phones. Any comments on whether this can be done at firmware level (e.g. compile custom Android firmware) ?
Thanks,
Zell

Hello Mccoffein,
Lock down would mean to restrict the functionalities. E.g. we only want the Android mobile phone to run our program on start up and cannot access any other functions.
Other examples on PC will be windows based Internet Kiosks, which only allows users to surf Internet net, but does not expose other functionalities of Windows.
Cheers,
Zell

Windows Apps and the Droid

Can you use your existing Windows Apps on the Droid or do I have to find Droid apps like the Window Apps that I already have?
I currently have a Windows Mobile phone, but my contract is up in December and my wife and I like what we see with the Droid, but it will be hard to put down my Tilt... I love the ability to put a Custom Rom on my Tilt. I have heard that this is not possible with a Droid...is this true?
Thanks,
Todd
Nope sorry. Since Android OS is a completely different mobile operating system you cannot use your Windows Mobile apps on android. A lot of the major application manufacturers have gone cross platform so you can likely find a lot of the same, if not similar apps.

[Q] Google earth distance orientation tool

I frequently use the distance measure tool on google earth to show me direction (degrees off North). It was be extremely usefull if I could use this from a mobile phone. I am considering buying a HTC HD2. Is google earth available for windows 6.5 operating system. (I have to use this for a software program for work, it isn't available on any other mobile operating system) I know that you can load android to the HTC HD2. Is this now reliable? Can you have both operating systems, without affecting the reliability of either system? Maybe I could run android as well, should google earth be available reliably for android? Advice greatly appreciated!

Cooling app for Windows Phones??!!

Hi guys, just came across a kickstarter project. They make ACs smart and will develop a Windows Phone app if they can reach their goal. Just look for tado and kickstarter on google.
Please support the idea! I want to control my AC with my Lumia. And if there are any suggestions about similar applications, which are already supporting Windows Phones, I'll be happy to hear about them!!!!:good::good::good:
I can control my heating and cooling from my Windows Phone via Nest. There's no app, but the mobile page works great for me.
