Would a kindly developer please compile a squeak VM for me..

The sources have been developed in visual c++ 6. I have just edited some of it to make use of the soft buttons on my htc-universal as mouse button modifiers (at least I hope that's what I did!!)
I'm asking for someone to compile it for me as I can't afford to buy the dev tools (hopefully in some distant future, I'll be able to have linux on the phone and develop for free.)
I do not know whether the code can be compiled in visual studio 2005... maybe it would gain performance improvements if it could.
Many thanks in advance

Actually... forget that
...Seems I was directed to old sources... time to start again

"Give man a fish and you fed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you fed him for life…"
Any way here's a link to download eVC++, from MS. It's completely free, plus it looks and feels just like VC 6. With the proper SDK (also free, look for link on that page) you can compile programs for Pocket PC WM2003 and up devices.

Good luck

Thanks
That's fantastic. Thank you very much for pointing me to a free compiler... I didn't know one existed

You can also use gcc.

Re: Thanks
And you can always use eDonkey to download a full VS2005 and not spend any money. Noone would care that you are using a stolen compiler until you'll start selling your programs. Or just ask any of your ex-USSR or chinese friends (if you have them) to share it with you
For example I never bought any computer program at all.

disassemble windows mobile applications?

hello,
i was hoping to get some help on disassembling windows mobile applications and infoormation about the tools i need to patch them, etc.
i have the windows mobile emulator setup and i am experienced with x86 reverse engineering, i would love to start hacking windows mobile apps now...
any help/links appreciated.
i will use this information only for learning purposes.

no replies...
does nobodt know or is it against the rules to tell me.
im sorry if its against the rules... mods can close this thread if it is.

no warez in this forum, hacking shareware/comercial apps is considered warez too. also u asked the wrong question.

He didn't ask if he could HAVE the software, but information as to what he needs. He could be wanting to buy the software for all we know. That's not a warez issue, me thinks.

Not to be an arse, but if hacking commercial apps is considered warez, then why has the Mobile Shell thread reached 90+ pages?
I think if you purchase a program and would like to hack it to allow customization then what is the big deal?

Besides, how is this ANY differn't then disasembling Windows Mobile and cooking it on our phones - I doubt MANY of us have the official version of windows on our phone!

dissasm is taking a bin file and making it into asm == the instruction mnemonics
the lowest form of code
some other tools can then make it or try to make it into readable c++ code
one needs alot of skills to do anything with the pure asm
and even portet back to c++ it's in horrid sematics as few of those translaters do a good
code struct job
it's not illegal in itself unless the ULA of the program state that it is which most comercial apps does

the mobile shell thread has 90+ pages and all... but noone haked the program... the program (as is) has not been altered in any way... just the graphics that the program uses

IDA will disassemble winmo exe files.
and i dont think this thread is against the rules because you dont specify what program/s you want to disassemble. for all we know,you want to disassemble free open source programs .

...hacking doesnt mean malicious intent. If he wanted to "hack" a registry code he would be cracking. Hacking means taking things about, figuring out how they work, putting them back together to work better, etc.
The term was originally coined to refer to the programmers that sat there and "hacked away" at the keyboard to create a program.
I will point out it is used to mean malicious intent these days, albeit incorrectly.

Someone "hacked" the password to get to those graphics now didn't they?
By no means am I faulting what has been done. I have enjoyed many hours of MS customization over the past month, and appreciated your help on many occasions pcarvalho.

If we speak so, then.... changing graphics in an app is already a hacking. You just don't understand this word, and go away from this thread, please.
As someone earlier replied, IDA Pro is capable of disassembling binaries for almost every processor

hi, please post the mobile shell thread url. i tried to search but only ended up with spb mobile shell. thanks in advance.

I think SPB Mobile Shell is what they where referring to...

Face Recognition Software for PPC

anyone thought of this ? with all the smart developers here I'm sure it';s very doable.
like the Lenovo laptops have the VeriSign sofware. something similar for our ppcs. it would be pretty cool. sorry if it was already discussed maybe.
if it was maybe you can point me in the right direction. thanks

android has a free program something wallet that uses the camera to look at your eye before unlocking. great program if you dont want anyone looking into ur phone

jaygriggs,
I've searched all about xda-developers for the program you mentioned.... do you know where I can find it? Thanks

i'll bet if you get ahold of a g1 you'll find it
hey if your in luck GOOGLE may even have something on it.... not like they have lots of information cataloged, or that they at all had a hand in the android operating system.....

biowallet
ask and you shall receive
http://whyandroid.com/mobile-news/205-biowallet-secure-your-device.html

But biowalett is for G1 and android only, is there an alternative for windows mobile?

BioWallet isn't even available yet. From the web site:
Availability
Many of you have shown interest in BioWallet these months and have asked us about the availability of the product. We really appreciate it.
Some of you even have got a T-Mobile G1, the first public Android device and want to install BioWallet in it.
The bad news is we haven't been given the possibility to get one and we don't want to release a product that hasn't been thoroughly tested on real hardware. We think it wouldn't be neither professional nor fair for you.
The good news is we keep working hard to deliver a software that meets your highest quality expectations. We will try to get a device somehow in the next few weeks and then our intention is releasing a version through the Android Market and other distribution channels.
If you want to be in the loop just subscribe to the list of BioWallet News and we will keep you posted!
By the way, once we complete the initial tests we want to start a beta program to test BioWallet in as many Android platforms as possible. So if you have an Android device and want a free BioWallet copy to help us to test it, just subscribe to the list of Beta Testers and you could be selected!

[PRJ][21OCT2009] Pebbles goes open source! We need your help!

Hi Guys,
I have come to you with great news: Pebbles, the remote control software, goes (probably) open source. At the moment, I am in contact with Brad Myers, the former head of the development team involved in Pebbles. The Project has been stopped a long time ago, but I am trying to convince him, that a release of the source code to open source under a GPL License is way better than simply abandoning such an excellent project.
I also told him that the best programmers concerning Windows Mobile Devices can be found here. So I hope that there are some experiences programmers with a bit free time in here. I can deliver all necessary graphical elements as I am familiar with this subject for over nine years now.
A quick information for all of you who do not know what Pebbles is:
It consists of some sub-tools, for example Shortcutter, which allows you to define your own buttons. These can send keystrokes and commands to the PC via Bluetooth ActiveSync. Basically, it is a remote control tool.
Furthermore, there is Scribbles, a tool which is used when you are holding a presentation. You write on your device and it will generate an overlay onto your presentation.
And there is also RemoteCommander, a kinda-VNC which also supports Scribble.
There are some more, to be found here.​
Hopefully there are some programmers willing to put their efforts and experience into this great project. I am sure that the base of the software is well-written, as it still runs smoothly and without a single problem on my current hardware specs, which are Windows 7 (x64) on 8GB RAM and an HTC Touch Diamond with Windows Mobile 6.1.
For any further questions do not hesitate to post in here. If the project is opened on Sourceforge, I also can give you my ICQ and E-Mail details if needed.
I am looking for your responses, please also do vote the poll.
Regards,
Zuzler a.k.a. Stefan
Below, you can find an excerpt of my recent contact with Brad Myers from the School of Computer Science in Pittsburgh:
That is an excellent idea. We will look into the legal issues and get back to you. It will probably take a few weeks to work out.
Are there lots of windows mobile devices still? Does software for old devices work on newer ones?
Any recommendations for where to put our source code so people can work on it? Like sourceforge or something? What do people mostly use?

My reply on this was:
Yes, there is a whole new generation out there. I for example got an HTC Touch Diamond, which has a resolution of 640x480 pixels, over 500 mhz and 4 GB storage. It has a touchscreen (it has just four keys, e.g. for answering calls and going back to home), GPS ans WiFi support. My Operating System is Windows Mobile 6.1 whereas my regular OS (i.e. at home) is Windows 7 (64 bit), and Pebbles runs smoothly on it. So I think Pebbles already has the best start as there are no OS issues with Windows as far as I am aware of.
For more information on the GPL you can have a look at the wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_General_Public_License). On the bottom there are more links to the original text. I would recommend he GPL Version 3, which is the latest one.
Sourceforge would also have been the platform of my choice. I will create a topic at the xda-developers.com forums to collect peoples responses on this subject.

Reserving this post for future updates.

I am interested in this. I'm using an old Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard, OMAP180 200MHz) upgraded to Windows Mobile Professional 6.5.
I'm already using SallingClicker which offers similar features, but I'm always willing to try something new...

Hi,
yes, Salling Clicker is a similar tool, it offers many features but the knowledge you have to have on order to create a working script is way too much.
I hope that there are some programmers here, which are willing to support this project. Then we also can create a wishlist, new features which should be added in 'our' first release.
Regards

An open source project would be awesome!
Looked at the specs of the original program, and it looks nice! Make it up to date, implement full touchscreen support, and this would be a winner!

I hope that I will receive a confirmtion by the end of this week.
One problem however is, that I do not have any experience in coding, the only thing I can do is graphics.
So my plea to all of you coders out there is: When time has come please have a look at the source code and tell us, if you can help us.
Maybe we also can create an "award system" - users request features, when they are implemented they can donate to the developers.
Maybe a mod can move this thread to the new created subforum "Windows software development"?
Regards,
Zuzler

I'm really looking forward to this software! It is bookmarked and I hope that we will have a nice new version...

Windows mobile 6.5/6.5.3 Documentation about core.

hello all,
I wanted the details of wm 6.5/6.5.3 core, that is the description of every file present in msxipkernal and sys. By sys i dont mean simply the package but all other internal dll's like those present in os folder or so. I tried to search msdn or so... but they seems to provide detail for app development only so is there any site, forum, thread where i can have those description?

+1
Would be nice to have this info in one spot to reference. Wish I knew more about Windows Mobile to help you.
