Hi! I wonder why do I have all this useless stuff in my OS and if there is a chance to cut it all out (starting with Dr. Watson :wink: )
Any ideas? Anyone who successfully removed something from his OS?

I was wondering when I have upgraded my Himalaya with Magneto. Too many bugs made me worry. The 2 biggest was:
-ActiveSync wasn't working...
-Too many applications that I was using with Diamond cannot install...
Can anyone explain me WHY is this incompatibility there? I don't understand WHY Magneto is not able to install/run applications that on 2003SE are working perfectly.
Thanx.
oh oh oh ...
imagine , you've got a pc , with windows98 and a lot of software installed ....
and , you install windows xp sp2 on your pc , but you install all the old soft you have installed on your windows 98 ...
Do you really think that all your old soft run fine with win xp sp2 ???
Nooooo
it's the same with wm2005
wm2005 is a new os , and like with news , some old softwares don't run anymore
Yes I thing...
...and I know that's normal. This is a wrong example,because all the old PC soft that I have in my comp works fine in XP. Upgraded from '98. In XP you can run also new MS-DOS apps. WM2k3se/2k5 is not like 98/XP in PC.
Ex:Intellipad is not working in 2003,but only in 2003se! Therefore I thing,that's relatively new software. However this soft is not running in Magneto. I say it once again. WHY this uncompatibility? It's a wrong step for Microsoft.
hard to say for sure who is to blame
if it's the 3th party programmers who are cutting corners and making hacks in their programs and those hacks then are not compatible when ms make their os more "stable" or deside to inforce the rules more strictly
or if it's ms who change the stk and how things are don in the os because they feel like it and dont care if it means that 3th party programs will have issues
or if ms are doing the 3th party programmers a favour by making sure they can sell upgrades / new versions of their software

It's called MONEY.
If you upgrade your OS then in some (not all cases) you have to upgrade the software - and that costs you money.
Their viewpoint is:-
Why should the companies who write the software for one OS in particular have to cough up to make changes to that software when a new OS version comes out?
It is hard to make software forward compatible when you don't know what/when it is coming out.
Upgrade OS at your own peril.
...
A little bit crazy...
MS WinXP supports the applications for Win98...
Then why not the same issue by mobile devices?
I don't understand coz it is not too much apps designated especially for Magneto. All the old software(even though it is very good) is then unusable...[/quote]

Hi,
ActiveSync works perfectly in all possible ways: over irda, over bluetooth and over cradle (usb/com)
Did you install ActiveSync4???
...
Yes I did it. I have tried up to 3 hours,have readed all the forums,did everything that's possible and no success to connection. I don't have IrDA in my laptop,but have built-in Bluetooth. No success also. Yes I couldn't connect that time via BT also with 2003se which works perfectly. Now I can connect via BT to AS,therefore it can't be so big problem. But the non-working applications made me worry. Shame... So good OS is the Magneto,but useless...
Don't get desperate!!
First things first, remember that this version of Magneto that you used to upgrade is not final. Hence, it will have bugs and compatibility issues. This is why most developers don't suggest people to install anything that is not final unless they absolutely need to.
As for the Windows XP vs 98 part of the thread, even though it is true that some 98 applications run flawlwessly on XP, you gotta remember what happened when XP first came out. Most (if not all) software and hardware to be installed warned you that you may have problems if you proceeded with the installation. Service packs and Windows updates knocked most of those issues out, which is why most 98 applications now run on XP. I hope this clarifies things
...
Thanx. I didn't watch the PCOS Windows evolution and therefore I didn't know,that XP was the same example as Magneto. If the final version of WM 5.0 will be as the WinXP and the old-applications friendly,then it will be very good piece of software.
Hi Guys this is my first post so please be nice .
Anyways i have a desay m9(from china) with wm5 (smart phone) os5.1.478 (build 15706.3.5.2) I thought it was a Normal windows mobile 5. My phone has touch screen and an xscale pxa270 312mhz processor.

No, you cant upgrade your smartphone to windows mobile 5.0 pocket pc edition, or to windows mobile 6.0.
But you can install windows mobile pocket pc application on windows mobile smartphone edition.
Link to site with explanations in your private messages.

thanks you all!!
ooo
Please give me link to normal WM too...Its terrible=(
Somebody give me link too..
Please guys give me some information or useful links about DESAY m9!
Don't ever ask again.
You know your device is strange, so nobody can help you.
If you insist to use WM instead of SP, go port the ROM yourself (and figure out how to flash the image yourself).
hello
starkwong what do you mean by sp?
thanks
Can anyone tell me how I can install "WM5 for Pocket PC" applications on this mobile phone?
hey noboday have a

Anybody knows about or has a registry monitor for wm 6.1 like ceregspy for ppc?

thanks for the help
PHM Regedit is on the new ROM by NRGZ28. It's freeware and can be downloaded from here -

Any help?
** EDIT **
I am an idiot because I only half read your post before replying. Please feel free to laugh and point whilst dancing around me with your friends and any strangers who happen to be around.
In my own defence, I have done this sort of thing before so, really, you should know better than to take much notice of me.
phm regedit is an editor, i want a MONITOR to be in background listening to all changes/acess that the OS and other programs do.
I know.
You only read half my post and missed the edit.
Is this the sort of thing you mean? - http://downloads.zdnet.com/abstract.aspx?docid=445617
Or this - http://www.torchsoft.com/en/rw_information.html - works over ActiveSync.
Or this one - http://www.filecluster.com/System-Utilities/File-Disk-Management/Download-fileWATCH.html

I've not heard of a program that will monitor the registry in real-time. But SKTracker will let you take before and after snapshots, and will list out all changes. I've used it before to watch for changes made after configuring my device, and after installing app's to see what goes where.
Does anybody know if there is WM 6.5 for acer n311?
Or is anybody going to create one?
Hi,
So far I haven't found any leads on this subject.
I guess the one who could do that might be football, but no news from him in WM6.1 forum.
I tried myself cooking a rom but I almost bricked my n311... so I stayed with WM6.1.
Too bad...
The new wm6.5 comeing WM 6.5 21884 19.01 2010
can used ram27 mb

Hi, I know this thread is more dead than myself but, anyone has the build 28217? Or something near it?.
I have the only one I could find (aka 23518) but I have a problem with the bluetooth and some stuff.
If anyone could just search on their hard drive for it, like searching n311 or something, would be helpful. Thanks
I don't understand why would anyone even want wm6.5 it's just a bloated wm6.1. Wm6.1 was the best winmo they made and if you really want that more iphone like interface it can happen, thee are many 3rd party skinning programs.

I have old HP4150, it works fine and it's great for using custom apps I program, but I was wondering if there is a possibility to upgrade to some new WM release?! I have PocketPC 2002 installed and cannot find anything else..
I don't see any hardware limitations that could dissallow upgrading.. but HP doesn't provide it...
