Is there any way I can get WMP 10 onto my SX66 without changing the firmware? I'd like to continue to use the official Windows Mobile 2003SE firmware for the SX66.
I checked the website for the SX66, and they don't have a WMP upgrade.....and it's not available for download from Microsoft.
You can try and request the program files for windows media player 10 from one of the members of this site, I don't have time right now but if you PM me later I'll try and help you out.
Does anyone have the program files? If yes, could you please upload them?
what exactly is wrong with WMP9 that you currently have?

Nothing is wrong with it, I would just rather have WMP10 becuase of it's improved features.
Hmm.
On the topic of WMP10, has anyone heard of skins being released for it yet?
The only program files I have are the 3 files for the default skin. >_>
new features?

A better looking interface, better support for syncing with WMP on PC, media library, album art support, support for DRM-protected media, etc.
So....could someone please upload the setup files for WMP10 if possible?
Oops made a mistake, sorry thought you could get it from the Microsoft website. Can't remember where I got it from now, it was ages ago, but it does work fine. Certain it was just a free download though.
Ever since Windows Mobile 2003, Microsoft only releases WMP for WM devices as a part of ROM updates. Siemens did not directly release the later HTC ROMs that included WMP10... so you'll have to flash your SX66 with another ROM (like, i-Mate's) that comes with WMP10.
That sucks, I was hoping that I would be able to just update the program.
Where can I download the i-Mate firmware (I already checked the website for it, and couldn't find it), or another WM2003 firmware for the BA that has WMP10?
Any new development or fix for getting sling player mobile to work with wm6?
I thought i put a post yesterday about it, but it must have been deleted. I didn't add it to the XDA live or vanilla threads, since it doesn't seem to work on either version..SO i guess its just a WM6 thing..
Has anyone been able to get sling player mobile to work on any version of wm6?
No it is missing an audio codec or atleast the correct reference to it, we do no know which codec either.
I have the request in with engineers at sling, but no response. I am working through some other registry stuff but nothing yet.

Yea, I re-installed WM6 on my universal and tried sling and it doesn't work on that version of WM6 either. I called in a support ticket to sling and they were basically no help. Aware of the problem, but since WM6 is not officially released for hermes devices or universal devices, it was not high on their list to fix. Although, they admitted a future fix may become available. They said they hoped to have a fix available when WM6 devices become more officially released. And then may only work on the devices that are officially supported as WM6 devices.
We r keeping track of this over here

it seems that whatever is TCPMP slingplayer from working is also messing with slingplayer.

What devices actually officially have WM6, we should call a trouble ticket on that. Tech support piss me off. They want to know which device so they can say it is unsupported, but really it is WM6 and not the device.

I've upgraded my wing to wm6.1 and my slingplayer quit working as well. Now I'll post a note with sling media requesting an upgrade.
Edit: I tried the different fixes suggested in the referenced threads but they didn't work for me. It installs fine, it locates my box fine, tried to connect then errors. It did work on wm6 but not 6.1.
I have Sling Mobile working on WM6. Are you referring to 6.1? If you're talking about 6 then I'm not sure why mine works but I will be happy to list all of my specs.

Same here, it works fine for me on WM6, VP3G 3.62.3 firmware, radio 1.54.30.10....
I've got TNT 6.1 ROM loaded on my device and SlingPlayer works fine. There shouldn't be a problem with WM6 or WM6.1 that I've seen and I've flashed both versions in last few months and have used SlingPlayer. I'd make sure your passwords are all correct and that you are making sure you are using the admin password if that box is checked.

When I am connected to my wifi at home, I can connect fine on wm6.1. As soon as I go back to Edge (T-mobile) - it tells me it can't connect. Hmmm.
radio = 03.07.90
Sling Player
I have had no problems with Sling player on mine using any of the 6.0 or 6.1 versions so far. I am currently using Faria R32 and it streams just fine.

For radio, check out Resco Radio: http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/radio/default.asp
GPS, you need an external receiver and then GPS software like TomTom: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/XDA-Exec-GPS.htm
For your WMP problem, goto Menu/Options/Video in WMP and there's a setting there to scale it to full window. Personally, I'd recommend having a go with TCPMP, it's freeware and much better for video and audio than WMP (in my opinion).
Welcome to the XDA, hope you have as much fun as a lot of us do
first at all, thanks for the info. for the windows media player, i've set the the video to full scale but it is still small. i don't understand what "recommend having a go with TCPMP, it's freeware and much better for video and audio than WMP (in my opinion)". i'm sorry. too slow to learn all this thing.. which rom u recommend i should upgrade to? does it affect the resco pocket radio if i installed new rom u recommended? what the differences windows mobile 6 (crossbow) and the normal windows mobile in xda exec? what is an extended rom? thanks for the replies...

TCPMP stands for The Core Pocket Media Player, http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/download
Does what WMP does, just better.
There are a few threads already about the benefits/limitations of WM6, it's really a personal thing and some prefer it, some don't. It's missing some components like video calling, but fixes for this are now being released. It really is a case of trying it for yourself and seeing what you prefer. It's certainly faster than WM5.
Extended ROM is a small 10mb memory section which is locked by operators and contains their own customisations and settings which are activated on hard reset. You can unlock this and remove all those files and use it for your own storage, be it programs or music or whatever.
Go hunting, there are a lot of threads that you should read before you get started, firstly, read the WIKI and get to know a bit more about your device before you do anything a bit more advanced.
Good luck.
thanks a lot again...
where can i download the windows mobile 6.0? any links?
Hi guys, new to the site. T-mobile is my carrier and I recently CID unlocked my Dash and downloaded HTC's version of wm6. I love the way it handles compared to T-mobiles, however, I frequently used the wmp homescreen plugin that came preloaded on Tmo wm6. I had a buddy send me the T-MobileDefaultBlue.home, the media player appears to be in the registry, but there is no way to load up the home screen plugin for wmp. I've read some directions on xda about some registry editing which I have done before (just some key remapping) but I am a little unfamiliar with it. I tried a cab file too but couldn't get it to work. Anyone wanna help?

Hello...
I'm working on a mobile version of a website and I don't know anyone with windows phone 7.
Would a couple people be willing to try and break it and tell me if something doesn't work?
I have access to test with windows mobile 6.5, android, iphone, and blackberry.

Looked good to me. Navigation was clean and fast, and the audio links all worked fine.
The only problem I saw was that all of the "Most recent" links on the free downloads page took me to the same place - the current schedule page.
Oh, boy...
Thanks for pointing that out.
I used ? instead of &.
JJ
That showed up another problem.
Apparently, my code on listseries.php was funked and it showed the same Recent Messages instead of the messages for each series.

Functioned well for me on a Samsung focus

Runs smooth and looks good on my HD7.
Do the mp3 links just start playing or does it require the file to download and open separately?
WM6.5 only downloads.
JJ
They started playing immediately for me.
it is working very well

No, it does not work. It tries to play it as a video (in full screen), but then it says that it can not play the video. Are you using a video format that Windows Phone 7 is supposed to support?
I don't have the foggiest idea.
It's a live stream that is going through a third-party streaming company (we encode, live, and stream to them, then everyone connects to them for the stream).
I've just implimented the code that they provided and it works for apple devices, but nothing else.
JJ
Edit...
Apparently, it works on a mac with safari, but not windows with safari.

Sorry, we can't play this file on your phone.

I'm not concerned about how things look or function, just what background color shows up in portrait and landscape.
In theory, it should be blue for portrait and orange for landscape.
Please test with any browswer that windows phone 7 supports, if possible.
Thanks...
JJ
Seems to work with IE9 (WP build 7712)
However you can't read headlines/Links in portrait mode since they blend with the blue background
Color changes (so does the font size but i'm guessing that has to do with whatever you tied to the orientation). So to verify above, you're good on the 7712 mango build.
Yeah, the functionality of it is meaningless, at the moment.
I was in the middle of testing some xml loading and decided to try some css media query stuff.
It's lame, though, as my windows mobile 6.5 internet explorer isn't using media="handheld" or min/max-width.
JJ
Worked perfectly here.
