windows mobile 5.0 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

I have my stock PDA2k with Windows Mobile 2003. Why would I want to upgrade it to Windows Mobile 5.0? What do I get out of doing it? Does the bluetooth work any better?
Thanks.

I upgraded yesterday, the new wizard ported V2a is good and stable, and the Bluetooth is working better :? (Not that much, but still better). But there is a problem with it keeping disconnecting every time the phone enters sleep mode (unsolved problem). Still, I have to do more tests to see if the quality is better.
I’ll post you more as soon as I’m sure...

Why am I selling my universal to ebay

You can see the item 9133392608 is for the sale to the ebay.
The reasons I would like to share with you are the following:
1. The unit is not very practical for business use.For example on the road you have to open the unit and press the stylus . Totaly impractical , I use to have a P910i and I could do any task (e.g. check my email) in 2 seconds.
2. Although the screen is VGA you cannot take advantage of it.
3. With any ROM i had tried (inluding latest DOPOD rom) , only with i-mate latest ROM i have 99.99% reliability.
4. The BT (JX-10) disconects sometimes with all the ROM i had tried.
5. It is like a PC (I have powerbook MAC tiger since 1 year) that needs formating once a week so it can work faster.
6. The 3G (UMTS) it's nice but OS it is a big bottleneck.
7. It cannot be sync MAC OS X without any issues (like my P910 use to). There is a sofware called missing sync in beta for WM5 but it doesn't work always.

1. the unit is very practical for using on the road (do you know any other laptop that fits your pocket :wink: )
2. you can use the VGA screen if you want to (its not easy though)
3. up to date stock info is more reliable then old info 8)
4. ..
5. its like a PC i can do everything i want on it.
6. i love having internet in the train
7. can sync with exchange server

1. If you don't know how to use it, it's very impractical yes.
But if you know how to use the keyboard, you can start any program and do everything without having to touch the stylus or the screen. It's perfect for in a car as I use it like that with a brodit carholder.
2. It has VGA and it's perfect for using remote control like www.logmein.com, I can connect to my homepc 640x480 full screen and start a download so when I come home it's finished, or check websites that don't work very well on Pocket internet explorer.
For as far the desktop of the pocketpc, who wants that in VGA mode all the time? it's way to small for that.
3. I use the latest QTek ROM and it has eveything I need like MSN, A2DP, AKU2 and is super stable. Nothing to complain.
4. I am using a bluetooth carkit supertooth II and a Bluetooth GPS at the same time without any problems.
5. It's like a PC I can watch series like southpark in the car with the sound coming from my car speakers with an FM transmitter. I watch videoclips, MSN, read email and the only time when I need to reinstall it is when I want to checkout another ROM.
6. The UMTS is perfect when my DSL is down, I connect my Universal as a modem and use the internet through the UMTS connection.
Download abut 45KB upload 7KB. Only for the low ping of 200-250ms it still is perfect for browsing and even downloading stuff.
7. Then stay with your P910 and your Mac. When you bought a Mac you knew you would have compatibillity issues with almost every program on the internet. Now the Universal doesn't work very well you balme the universal?
I am happy with my universal, and the complaints you are making has nothing to do with the universal. But with the user behind it .

Buying a Pocket PC for use with a mac is... mad, surely?
Next time, do your homework, and nice seeing you - enjoy your P990 forums.
I planned to buy a Universal on eBay, but after reading your post I decided not to bid on a machine as lousy as that

GUys...
Use Nokia HS 12w...Stereo BT,FM and caller ID...I hope this eliminates all the "impractical" things
Speed and reliability
This is the key for a business phone appart from practicality.
I loved the phone for the 3G / UMTS connection but Microsoft had prooved again how badly they design their OS.
I agree with you that it is cool but it is a gadget and gadgets are cool.
But if you want to be serious and do some work , you would wait , upgrade the ROM when a new version comes up , sync again ...and waste your time.
It is no suprise that companies who control the biggest of the mobile phone market they don't use the WM as an OS but symbian.
On the other hand I am very happy to read this forum and I would missed that .
BT doesn't always works fine

Using the ROM of QTEK the BT JX-10 lost it's service and I had to re-enable it at the time that I was in a meeting.
With i-mate ROM i didn't had this issue but sometimes the voice was breaking up.
hi
in one of the posts above.. i noticed that the author is using gps via BT
i love my jasjar and use a holux bt gps with the universal but every 6to 7 mins the jj goes screen off and i have to re-establish the BT connection
how can i make some settings that would let me JJ keep awake and not turn the BT off...
im using the latest qtek rom aswell
thanks

I don't know why that happens. If I were you I would do the following.
1. USe the houlx with another pocketpc to find out if the problem lies with the holux GPS or the Universal.
2. If it's the Universal upgrade to the latest ROM.
3. I use the Universal in my car with an active holder. So it's charging while I am using my GPS and the screen stays active. Maybe that has something to do with it but I doubt it. I use the Adapt 300 GPS by the way.

From your footer I see that you have a history with WM including VELO 1.
I had one too , and return it for a PSION and then PALM devices and never got a WM device only till recently.
FYI, the jasjar syncs with MAC OK with missing sync beta 2.5a10 .
I think I would go for an E61 nokia instead .
I just sold my O2 Exec on eBay too, for the same reasons -- not practical for business. Too "clunky" physically... OS and software too slow.
Back to my SX66 (BA)...

If a symbian OS mobile was using a 500Mhz processor than it would be able to make some coffee , wash the dishes ..etc.
WM5 mobiles are power / memory / system resources hungry .
Of course it always depends of the user , if you want the smallest notebook like a friend here wrote than it is the one.

car bluetooth and WM6 latest roms (black 2.5 and dutty v2)

Hello
I have a Seat Leon with preinstalled bluetooth in-car.
I used to have dutty v1 installed on my hermes and everything was great!
When I installed Black 2.5 then I was able to pair the phone with the car but after a minute the connection is dropped.
same problem happens with dutty v2 and the newest lvsw
you know what is wrong with the new version? newest bluetooth?
any ideas?
i was going to start o similar topic... but i've seen yours... the reason... happy with wm6 and the car kit
so.. i have o parrot 3400LS-GPS car kit... and when i conected the phone to it for the first time it showed the signal strength and battery state... with wm5 i had nothing.... and the coolest thing is that i have also carrier's name... at first it was eandomly shown... but i think i figured it out... if it is on 3g it does not display the carrier's name... but on gsm it does... BUT if i disable the longnameprefix in regedit it also shows the carrier on 3g.. but on this i still got to test....
anyway no BT drops...
spv m3100
radio 1.41.
hardspl 2.10 oli
dutty v2 premium
Same on Audi A6, Black 2.5 (and latest LVSW) drop BT connection. Sucks.
i guess microsoft broke some compatability with this os build in a few weeks there might be a new os build....heh
Same issue here
working with an older version of LSVW (can't recall which one) and a 2006 Audi S4 -- pairs fine, shows signal strenght and other details not shown with WM 5.0, but drops and reconnects randomly. Very irritating. I don't use bluetooth anymore in my car -- a tremendous shame.

Hi, I don't know if this will solve your problem but here goes anyway. When I first got my phone (Orange SPV M3100), I could not connect to installed BT system in my Audi A4. I understand from what I have read that this is due to a slight difference in BT specification used by WM to that used by mobile phone manufactures. I had similar problems as you describe above - all fixed since I installed software from JetWare (use google to find). Hope this helps.

hrmm, I'll try that too but my question is that my phone used to work just fine, now with the latest rom the problems with bluetooth started, that's what I am pointing out.
Hi all.
I've a Seat Leon too, with bt integrated.
Since i upgraded to first WM6, i have no problems with hands free, but i must get the PDA on. If i put PDA off, BT starts to disconnects and reconnects, and finally BT goes off.
With all WM5 i've tested, the BT disconnects and reconnects every time with the PDA on.
Think there is an issue with the way the handsfree get info from the phone, cause normal phone works without this issue.
Regards.
Im also using Pro 2.5 and have noticed that my BT for my Handsfree car kit is playing up. I can connect and it works but when I leave the car and come back I need to shut down and then restart Bluetooth to reconnect. Bit of a pain atm.
try the widcomm stack
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1234724&postcount=507
Also having problems, Parrot Rhythm 'n Blue, it droppes during calls and reconnects after a minute (not always).
I already use Jetware, so I fear that doesn't do the trick. According to the reactions in this thread this really seems to be a problem...

Ok thanx, I'll try that and report back...
It's the BT implementation in the phone (either HTC or Microsoft), other phones work fine. Anyho: for me the previous LVSW (03-26) works fine and since I don't need the other 'stuff', I'm using that release.

as said: I use the jetware software already and got the same problems... not always, but frequently.
I'm currently using Black 2.5 w/an '07 Infiniti FX and have zero dropout issues. I love it actually, I got in my car this morning and it reconnected automatically when I got a phone call, no problem

guys, finally the jetware did the job, the bluetooth stopped on keep disconnecting, let's hope that MS will fix the problem on the next release.
Hi all, another SEAT Leon driver with bluetooth handsfree problems here
My Vodafone v1605 suffered the dropout problem when it was on the stock Vodafone ROM.
I used the WM Black 2.0 ROM for about a day before the 2.5 ROM came out and didn't suffer the problem.
Since going to Black 2.5 I have suffered the problem intermittently. When the phone is running on battery it frequently disconnects/reconnects. However it appears to be pretty stable when on charge in the Brodit powered mount. I would guess that the major difference is that when on charge the phone doesn't go into standby mode.
I am tempted to go back to 2.0 and test for a while longer, especially as my device code has been updated with 2.5 so TomTom is not currently activated

Internet Sharing and Vista

Hello, been using custel 2.5 for a while now, probably the day after it came out. Now I need to use internet sharing adn I`m not able to do it thru BT. When I pair my device I can do activesync just fine, but on Vistas BT manager (BT Devices) its not showing the dial-up device. This is strange it works fine with the USB connection, but I really need the BT. Please help. Thanks in advance.
BTW it used to work with wizard with WM6. Thanks
its not a dail up service to start off with its a PAN. second what BT stack are you using? I had the broadcomm stack first and that wouldnt work so i had to switch to the native MS stack and its works fine. If you know how to edit the bt.inf file on your vista machine that will install the MS stack instead of the other stack.

Doesnt it show up in the dial-up services in vista bt device manager ? so i guess Im doint it wrong ? Is there a tutorial that I can see. I remmber on the wizard WM6 it just showed up as a dial-up device and I just dial it. How do I do it here ? Maybe I dont even have to edit anything, maybe Im just having a senior moment thx for the reply
believe it or not if you use your handheld's help program and search for internet sharing it will give you instructions on how to set it up. and no it does not show up on vista as a dail up network since it is not also search this forum for Bluetooth PAN and there is lots of info
doh I never even looked at help on the phone thanks I see how to do it now I see that on the wizard they used the old wm5 modemlink or whatever its called. thanks again but plz try to be nicer to ppl next time

Yeah got it working, works ok kinda slow, I get about 322k on dslreports.com/mspeed while on the phone I get around 800k on the phone it self and about 800 using the USB cable. Any suggestion on how to speed it up ?

I noticed the speed decrease over PAN compared to the USB cable as well. I get way more fluctuations over BT. I am sticking to the USB but it is a nice fallback. Also, for me, Internet Sharing is a night and day difference over dial-up networking/modem driver. It is so easy. This feature is a WM6 gem!

Bluetooth is severely limited in Terms of speed, especially if you're not using Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR

anyone else stuck with vista showing unknown device in device manager when usb tethering with internet sharing on mine it seems to work for 5 mins then disconnect and give up reverting back to unknown device. so im stuck with bluetooth
vista 64 bit
Hey Guys!
My first post with such a stupid problem:
i'm trying to connect to internet with vista 64bit using my hermes over usb. but it doesnt seem to work.
Until last week i had win xp sp3 on my pc and the internet sharing option in hermes worked without any problems. Now with Vista Ultimate 64 bit i can connect the phone to pc, sync works perfect.
when i start internet sharing, phone builds up a GPRS connection but after 2-3 sec it disconnects the data connection and active sync authentication starts with vista.
In vista i cant find any modem connection in network settings. The only thing i found was in device manager when phone is connected to pc (HTC USB Modem)
here is my spec :
- windows vista ultimate 64bit
- mobile device center 6.1
- Framework etc. is installed
my Hermes:
- HTC_HERMES_S64_WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_V3_WWE_02.10.2008
- SPL 2.10 olipro
- radio ver 1.54.30.10
i have re-installed the drivers and device center several times without success.
What the hell i forgot or what i'm doing wrong...
Are there any tools or drivers i should use?
My friend has a vista 32 bit system. with his pc its no prob...some rndis drivers installed itself and we began to surf.
But in my vista 64, i missed this rndis driver installation......
Please can someone help me, i'm so confused...
Try checking your firewall... maybe disable it to test and see if it works temporarily.
Alright, thank you i'll try it on monday when i'm in office...
Ive no i-net there so i must be prepared, so are there any specific drivers or something i need to download? Or is device center enough?
Close Firewall doesnt really work...
Yesterday, i had a connection for one time...
In Device Manager, there was a "Remote ndis based Internet sharing device"
and internet worked...Today nothing works...
What have I to do in Vista? Should I deactivate some processes like wcescomm.exe? When I do this, It automatically restarts when Internet Sharing connection breaks down.
Could someone explain step by step how to get Internet Sharing work (Steps, Tools, Programs, Drivers)?!?
Thanks guys!
Same Problem
I am having the same exact problem.....
I HAD windows xp sp2 and everything worked fine once activesync was installed.....
I HAVE windows vista 64 bit and the device under the device manages show that its not working... it instals the RNDIS (whatever) drivers but dose not work...
I TRYed windows vista 32 bit, everything works fine..... the device conects with no problems...
SO the problem is that its VISTA 64bit so what would be causing this ???
btw my phone is a WM6 8525 from ATT with Internet Sharing
I need the internet sharing option when im at HomeHome and not at school, so im thinking about taking my laptop back to office depot!
So glad im not alone...
In meantime, in arranged with the prob... I think no one knows a solution...

Windows Mobile 6.5 & Lotus Notes Traveler

After upgrading my HTC touch pro 2 to the new relased Windows Mobile 6.5 i have two problems that I don't know how to solve.
1./ I am using Lotus Notes Traveler to synchronise with my mail at work - when changing to WM 6.5 synchronisation is only working when usin WLAN.
3G/GPRS etc does not work - it has something to do with "port 80" etc - can anyone help me out?
2./I had previously WM 6.1 and had installed TomTom 7.
When upgrading to WM 6.5 I only get a message that TomTom doesn't work with this version. Is there any way to "get around" this?
All I can tell you is that I validated Traveler on both the HTC TP2 and the AT&T Tilt 2 running WinMo 6.5 and ran it for a week with no issues.
Are you using a VPN client to connect to your server, or are you running an SSL setup, or a server outside the DMZ?
Maybe this is a port blocking issue from your network.
I am trying to connect via the telephone operators server (3G/GPRS) through to an IP-adress (our company server)
This worked very well when I had installed traveler on WinMo 6.1 but I haven't managed to get it operational when doing the same installation on the WinMo 6.5 platform.
As I mentioned via my home-WLAN it works perfect.
If you are using a url for the server address, try using the ip address instead.
Thank you golfer_boy, for pointing me in the right directio.
I have spent a good portion of the day, thoroughly running through my telephone-provider settings, and found out that there was something strange with some proxy-settings.
Now I have Traveler up and running at full speed.
If you hadn't encouraged me stating that you had been running it, I would probably not have put all that effort into it.
Thank you fo the support and best regards!
Glad I could be of some help.
We started using Traveler about six months ago for our US PDA users and it has proven very reliable for us. I have compared e-mail delivery to the same device running BB Connect and found no difference. The only thing it lacks is a corporate address book lookup but that has not proven a big problem for us.
Hello,
I have the same problem (working with WLAN, but not 3G/GPRS), but it is no difference in using a host or an IP-adress. Any other idea?
(Using Samsung omnia II (winmo6.5) now, worked before with SE Xperia (winmo 6.1))
Soren5939, what was the solution? was it the host/IP?
My admin has told me to disable proxy, but in 6.5 I don't find this option...
Soren5939, I'm having the same problem with a HTC Touch Pro 2 on Winmo 6.5. Exactly what did you change in the proxy settings?
Hi,
is there anybody who can explain how to install the traveler properly on WM6.5?
Want top update my phone to WM6.5 but want to be sure that Traveler will work and I do not know if I can install the current Traveler on WM6.5 at all. And IBM still says that they just support till WM 6.1. There support do not even know if or when they will update Traveler.
Thanks for your help
Just updated to Win Mobile 6.5. Installed the Lotus Notes Traveler for Win Mob 6.1 and everything worked.
Cheers
Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Hi Can you pls help me as I am Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Thank you
I was working with the Traveler for a few month on WM6.5 with no issues but since i switched to WM6.5.x (6.5.3 atm) it only syncs for the first time after being installed. From then on it gets an Error 8.
I tryd this with several roms but with no positive result.
Can anyone confirm this?
btw: Im on a TOuch HD
I too work with Notes Traveler and the latest release of any custom rom i use puts the phone into an unusable state (mostly non-responsive). I have Tried Juicey R8 and Energy Leo.
I'll have to try a stock 6.5 ROM in the future. If not.. it will be back to 6.1.
Update: I removed my SD storage card and soft reset. Phone works fine with Notes Traveler and Energy Leo ROM. I'm in the process of reformatting my SD card to see if that helps.
Update2: My TP2 running Energy Leo works fine as long as my storage card is not in the device. Maybe there's a DLL issue with accessing the storage card when one is present.
Seeing something similar here.
Phone: HTC TP2 on Win Mob 6.5 (Vodafone UK Rom)
I have now spent a few days messing around with this, and this is where Im at.
1) Im pretty sure the Notes traveler install messes with my phones ability to turn off the screens backlight off, but Im sorted that with a Reg Fix
2) Can confirm that Notes traveler doesnt like switching networks (WLAN, 3G)
3) It too installed for me the first time, but as I saw other issues with the phone I had to flash the ROM again.
Same problem here.
Install Traveler and the first sync works fine. After that there is no send/receives. My IT guy has the same phone and ROM so I am not sure WTF is going on.
Any help would be great. Someone had posted that they fixed theirs, but did not include what the hell they fixed.
Any comments???
Problem is solved
the new Version of the Notes Traveler (8.5.1 fixpack2 otherwise called 8.5.1.2) is fully compatible with WM 6.5.x
I installed the new version on our server an flashed a 6.5.x ROM onto my HD2.
Then you´ve to update the client version on your phone
The traveler is know working fine.

I can confirm that Traveler 8.5.1.2 works perfectly fine on my TP2 with stock WM6.5 ROM. I tried syncing over 3G and WLAN.
And btw., does anyone know if it's possible to sync only mail, not calendar, using Traveler? I know it's not officially possible, but maybe some registry hack?
Traveler and WinMobile 6.5.3
I've found a problem using 6.5.3 on my X2 when trying to Sync with Traveler.
1st sync is perfect, but everytime efter that the phon keeps sending calendar updates until you tell it to stop. If you try to wait and see how many calendar entries it sends you'll be out of battery before it's done.
It starts with 0 of 9 ( example )
1 of 9
2 of 9
And keeps on and on. And goes beond 9.
After a few hours you'll be looking at 2469 of 9
Any suggestions any one.
Hello dicksoft.
Please, try set Mail and Calendar settings from "Show all" to needed period.
Maybe You syncing too many Calendar events.
In Traveler - Menu/Settings/2.Mail and Calendar
Show past events
Show upcoming events
Example:
Show past events- 1 Month
Show upcoming events- 3 Months

Tethering Trouble: Inconsistent internet connectivity

I recently got a Touch Pro 2 running WM 6.5 to replace my Mogul running WM 6.1. Using WMWifiRouter I could use the Mogul to connect various laptops to the Internet. They included a Dell Inspiron running Vista, an Acer Netbook running XP, and a Fujitsu 810 Lifebook running XP Tablet Edition. Although all three "connect" with the Touch Pro 2, only the Fujitsu connects to the Internet. The other two do not. I've also tried the TP2 (unsuccessfully) with a Toshiba Portege running XP Tablet Edition. I have compared the networking settings of the Fujitsu with each of the other machines, and wherever there was a difference, I reset the other computer to match the Fujitsu. Despite all of this, I sill can access the internet with only the Fujitsu. (I get the same pattern of results if I use Bluetooth instead of wifi.) Can anyone suggest an explanation . . . and a solution?!
I would try hard resetting the phone after you backup everything. If you installed a custom ROM, try reflashing. or even try reflasing the original ROM. My TP2 worked fine for the first week or so, then out of the blue I couldn't connect to ANYTHING using the WifiRouter! Once I reflashed, it all worked again and has been working since.
Is reflashing the answer?

I may have to do that. I would be more inclined to that if in fact I couldn't connect ANY computer to the internet using my Touch Pro 2. In this case, I am puzzled that a Fujitsu tablet running the same XP Tablet Edition as a Toshiba Protege tablet can access the internet via WMWifiRouter (or a Bluetooth) connection, but the Toshiba can't, and neither can netbook running XP or a laptop running Vista.
(The TP2 came with WM 6.1 and I upgraded it soon after I got it to WM 6.5 using the "official" Sprint ROM.)
I'm still interested in hearing if anyone has any explanation of what may be going on here, as well as a fix for the problem.
