Need Advice about Apps we can install in a w2005 BA - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

I have just repalce my DELL PDA for the BA. I already upgratde it to he latest w2005 rom available in this site. Now my question. What "classic" PDA apps are compatible with w2005 rom. F.e. can we install Sprite Backup, SPB apps etc.? Thank You

all spb apps are compatible with wm2005, I personally use them all. Most programs from WM2003SE work on WM2005, such as agilemessanger, all spb products, there is a way to get tomtom on, etc. Just try it and it should work .

I have found that SPB PocketPlus 3 slowed my device down to the point of not being usable. I hard hard reset my device and its way better without it.

Softwares installed after hard reset in Eten M600 ppc

Anybody have the list or know how to get the installation files for softwares installed after a hard reset / rom installation in Eten M600 ppc?
I have a problem running WM5Storage with rom 215 and 216, but was ok with 213. Based on someone's suggestion, I soft reset the device after hard reset and just before auto installation of softwares (after the screen alignment process). And then install and run WM5Storage and it works!
So, I'd like to track down which software conflicts with WM5Storage, and also Softick Card Export.
Thanks.
A bit confused here, I think what you are looking for is the programs in your `Ext Rom`. Do search (on this forum) to see how to extract / unlock this ext rom for your device.
I tried all I can find, but no luck.
Sorry, just got to know that your ETEN M600 is not from HTC where most of the discussions here are about. You may want to try your luck on other places.

Restoring Program Settings

Hello to all experts and ambitioned users
I just upgraded my Prophet to the newest QTEK ROM. Everything worked perfect.
But I am really sick of setting up the new installed programs. I tried to make backups with PHM Regedit and also tried to restore them.
PPC PocketProfiles was one of the programs. But after restoring the rbk file to registry I softreseted and nothing happened. While booting the Prophet always freeze at splash screen.
Another one was MortPlayer but I gained no better result.
Does anyone know a better working solution for such problems?
Thanks for your help
Everyone will tell you that it's not wise to use a backup from a different ROM. The reason is that when you have upgraded from AKU2.0 to AKU3.0 chances are big you have a completely different registry layout. Same for the new functions AKU3.0 provides above previous versions.
Some programs can just be copied when you want to create a backup. But most, like Windows, have scattered pieces all over the Program Files and Windows directories.
So first you have to see witch programs you actually use, are they easy copied for backup purposes? What registry tweaks do you use, aren't they available as a single CAB?
Upgrading always comes with installing/personalizing the complete system all over again. But that's why we’re here on this forum, right?
Thanks for your fast reply.
I backuped only the part which is especially for PPCProfiles or MortPlayer. So I thought it would work well.
I am quite sure about the ROM Upgrade problem and that it isn't possible to restore the complete regestry.
Maybe I didn't explained my issue not good enough, sorry

Contacts is shutting down automatically after Spb backup recovery

Hi,
I just flashed my Hermes to the Dopod WM6 ROM and performed an Spb backup recovery. Now my contacts do show up in the phone app, but my contacts app is shutting down immediatly after I start it up!
Anyone a solution?
Same Problem with contacts after SPB Backup!
I get the exact some problem... I don't know how to fix it, I can't even add contacts! I like new friends but not I can't even use my cool phone to get numbers anymore! Can anyone help me?
Solution to this problem!!!
Hey,
I've found a solution. The problem is that WM6 uses a completely different format to store contacts because of the tight messenger integration.
You can do 2 things to get your old contacts from your spb backup on your wm6 device:
1.) If you've got a second wm5 running device, load the spb backup on that device and sent them over to your wm6 running device through bluetooth or IR.
2.) Haven't got a spare wm5 device? Download the wm5 SDK including the wm5 emulator from Microsoft. Install the package on your desktop, reset your computer and run the emulator. You've now got WM5 running on your desktop pc! You can install cabs and also the spb recovery cab works fine. All your contacts will show up in the emulators contacts app. You can now manually copy the contacts to your wm6 phone (lotsa work!!! The way I did it...) or make a wm6 compatible backup on the emulator on your desktop and run it on your wm6 device. Sorry, but I can't advise you about which program you should use for that, but I know they exist!
Good luck!

Yeah, SBP doesn't play nice between rom changes...
Another option is this:
Download PIM backup from here. See attached.
Reflash your old rom, use SPB backup to get it back to the way it was.
Install PIM backup to your old rom, and backup.
Flash new rom, reinstall PIM backup, then restore.
Worked for me!

Program installation failures.

This is an update on my previous topic:corrupt installations of programs.
(see below)
I also can't use the internet anymore, either way via connection with active sync by usb cable or wireless with WiFi mode. It does however states that a connection has been made, but when starting up Internet Explorer i don't get for example googles homepage.
When insterted in my desktop, active sync also replies it cannot sync properly. And i get a warning on the p3300 screen saying: could not get an ip adress or something like it.
See below the problem of my first topic:
Hi,
Could anybody provide help for me? My P3300 doesn't seem to be able to install any programs / games anymore?!? What to do, has anybody had the same experience?
Once I install a program from my desktop PC to the P3300 or when I copy the CAB-file straight to the P3300, I get the standard installation screen: "choose a location.....Device, Storage Card or Bluetooth...blablabla"
But when I tap either one, let's say Storage Card, the thing is loading and a 2 seconds later I get the same screen, but with the message: "pocketxpdf.sf.net pocketxpdf cannot be installed. To try installing again to a different location, choose a location: Device, Storagecard or Bluetooth."
How is this possible all of a sudden? Never had problems...there is enough storage space, I've never updated the ROM, just a soft-reset doesn't work either. I don't want to do a hard-reset yet until I know a way to export my Contacts so I don't have to bring them in manually again after a possible hard-reset. (since i cannot install the program EasyHelper anymore...)
Anyone have any clue, what could be wrong?
My Specs:
HTC P3300 UK (+ extended battery)
Original ROM version
WM5
Installed programs:
Windows Vista Skin
Battery Status
Pocket Mechanic
SBSH Clock
Resco Explorer
PSshutXP
Pocket Painter

Many thanks if you could help me out!

FIXED!!!!
I fixed it!
I have no idea how, but I can install programs again. And I can connect via wLan (WiFi) and use the internet again.
What I did was: I used Sprite Backup Software for PPC on my laptop which I used a couple months ago to make a backup. I restored this backup to the phone. After, everything worked again and I could install PocketXPDF 0.5.0 finally with success.
Only side-affect: I lost recent made contacts and recently made/received SMS text messages. I think Sprite also overwrote these files with the older ones I had still on my laptop.
So,people, you see: It's always usefull to have a backup of your devices!

Internet explorer plugin for apps

Was wondering if someone can tell me which file contains the IE plugin used by apps like Pocket Wikipedia. Ever since PIE6(WM6.1), its not working correctly. I know it has nothing to do with IE executable, n I also tried replacing some dlls I saw Pocket Wikipedia using, without any luck. What did work was restoring an old backup of a WM6 setup I'd made via spb clone onto the new WM6.1 setup. The restore got stuck in the middle where it was unable to restore registry entries, but it did restore software n even the IE plugin . The end result, as far as I could see was all WM6.1 other than the IE plugin. Now am using WM6.5 and I kinda like the new IE... so dont want to risk it again. Is there a way to simply replace the plugin file?
hello ,my fellow ,could U share the new ie with us by uplord it or give some link to download it ?thx
i dont think its out in cab form... its built into the rom.
