WiFi sniffing hacking tools for the BlueAngle?

Guys,
Does anyone know of WiFi tools for the MDAIII that will turn it into a mobile sniffer? As I drive a long the built in WiFi app will pick up some SSID broadcasting. I would like to have something more like the desktop software that tells me if its available, is it encrypted, is 64 bit or 128 bit, etc.
I will be traveling to my parents house and there isn't any wifi hotspots available in the City. I would like to 'sniff' one out so that I can get some work done while I'm there.
Thanks,

i belive this is what you are looking for
http://www.wififofum.org/

There is a PocketPC version of NetStumbler, called MiniStumbler. You can use this tool to detect Access Point who broadcast their SSID and you can see if the AP uses encryption (not able to differentiate between WEP 56, WEP 128, WEP 256, WPA-PSK, ...) or no encryption.

Thanks guys

http://www.thedragon.co.uk/Downloads/Downloads.htm has a copy of MiniStumber on it.

WiFiFoFum is way better than Ministumbler IMHO... :wink:
But the ultimate tool for the WiFi road warrior is PocketWinC hands down... 8)

Avoi Pocket Winc
Pocket Winc used to make my XDAII crash and a need a hard reset, so when it works, great, until the freeze. I would avoid it like the plague. Try Streethawk, it is an advanced wififofum, that not only finds hotspots, but automatically checks internet availability and connects...at your own peril

Works like a dream on our MDA III

Wififofum worded perfect, Streethawk did not work on the MDAIII

What do you think about this: http://www.cirond.com/pocketWinc.html? Usefull?

Looks fine but why pay for it when MDA III has the functionality already to some extent and you can use wififofum for free

What abt bluetooth?
Are there similar BT tools for wm2003?
Thx

Well you're right. Which features has PocketWINC instead of WifiFofum ? Don't say there is no difference Why does Rayan says it is the "ultimate" tool?

The ultimate should be a passive wifi scanner such as Kismet on unix or Kismac for MacOSX, but I don't think this exist for PocketPC. The difference between ministumbler/netstumbler and these passive scanners is that they are too noisy and every smart security admin can detect you scannen for wifi networks. Passive scanners just listen to the traffic without making any noise.
Another point is that most active scanners do not notice Wifi networks when their SSID broadcast is disabled, passive scanners just watch traffic and if there is traffic on the wifi network with SSID broadcasts disabled, they will detect it.

just so it's mentioned:
Both streethawk and WiFiFoFum work perfect on my Orange SPV m2000 ... so does pocketWinc trial by the way.
cheers

sorry, wasn't loged in before..
one more tool i've found to work on my SPV m2000: WiFi Graph
cheers

Pocket WinC DON"T USE IT!
As mentioned, Pocket WinC has the same problem as SPB Plus/ Storage card monitoring error: It causes a power out and only a hard reset will bring you back. Suggest you use any of the others, I had to send my XDA2 to O2 for repairs before figuring this out... goodluck

Has any one taken this ROM appart yet? It has uptated BT.

It is from an HP 6315 from 3/31/05
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/HandheldiPAQ/us/download/22539.html
I would love to see if we could get this stack and the settings on our XDAII and other HTC devices,,, THAT would be cool.
Bluetooth build 1.0.0.3701:
Corrects inaccurate display of headset icon when a call is in progress.
Adds a check to determine if Bluetooth stack is initialized before accepting messages from phone.
Adds a user interface (UI) change to enable a connected headset to automatically disconnect before attempting to connect to a different headset when the user chooses to connect to a second headset.
Corrects check for invalid device name.
Corrects issue where handheld could not reconnect to remote device after a page timeout.
Corrects Object push profile update so it sends all files.
Updates FTP connection wizard to correct service discovery issue.
Corrects issue with call waiting for incoming call handling while dialing out.
Corrects issue with headset connection icon so it is correctly displayed after power cycling.
Corrects audio to make it compatible with an in-car solution.
Corrects audio issue where the right channel for a headset was unavailable for playing audio and during calls.
Corrects issue where the LED and network status were not properly synchronized.
Corrects issue where the user could not send multimedia messaging (MMS) message.

Hmmmm....a few remarks, correct me if I am wrong:
1. There is already a BT version 1.0.0.3900 available
2. This is not a HTC device, so I doubt the tools developed here will work on it.

This is an HTC device. All HPs are designed by HTC.

Well, even though I don't want to stop progress because I would like to have the ROM taken apart for my own personal reasons, the 6315 was actually made by Compal. Bad move on the part of HP in my opinion. However, the bluetooth stack that was taken from an iMate JAM worked on the 6315 and that is how most survived until the update was released. So it very well could work on the HTC's. On a side note, if someone could point me in the right direction, I will take the ROM apart, just don't know where to start.

Oops....my bad....excuses!

no htc dont make ALL hp's pda's the H5400's was oem'd from LG
and even if the ipaq in question is made by HTC then that dont garentee that the xda tools work as they are not made by HTC

I can tell you now that the XDA tools do not work on that ROM as it stands. However, looking through the HEX, it is laid out a little differently than the XDA ROM's but have some of the same portions, just in different locations. Now if I knew more about what I was looking at, I could take it apart for you. The 6315 uses Widcomm BT and like I stated before the BT drivers ripped from a JAM worked great on the 6315 so I have a feeling the 6315 drivers will work on the XDA's.

I can also tell anyone looking at it that in the first header of the ROM the letters are shifted 13 characters. So when you see RAT it equals ENG and so on. It looks like they don't do that for very long though.

BT 3900 and 3500 do not support Hands Free Profile or even Headset Profile on my XDAII.. This is important so people can use Caller ID on a BT device and OR a Car Kit with the Hands Free Profile....
Switching stacks is a pain in the but...
Even so, the only OS that even slightly works with Hands Free on the Himalaya, is 2.20 translated but even that has bugs that makes it very frustrating. The 2005 did have a fully functional BT, even having separate serial ports for each BT device, (like GPS), but the other bugs and the limited memory left over from the useless and unerasable Extended ROM from the other OS made it no good..
With this new ROM, I may be tempted to buy the HP again.. When I first bought one, it was DAM slow and the BT SUCKED!!!
Maybe now it is usable.
I love my Himalaya and it's 128 of built in..

I will just have to keep waiting for one of the above unless someone finds a fix for the BT Hands Free.

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.

Why am I KEEPING my universal

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
j/k

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 .

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...

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)...

mooving from format windows PC to "format" WM5

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.

Best Remote Contol Software?

Hey Everyone,
Has anybody identified a good program for having "remote control" functionality with the Hermes? I was in a place with REALLY bad TV where I would have killed for the ability to change the f-ing channel.
Thanks!

Try NoviiRemote Deluxe!

Seconded, it's superb. Had to manually program all the codes in though myself, as it refused to work with preprogrammed ones.

Forget IR-Remote with Hermes. The IR-beam is too weak, has only max. 1 meter radius

Doesn't look like it is actively produced anymore (but you can still track it down - http://www.shentech.com/totalremote.html ) I've still got a Griffin Total Remote and it'd be interesting to see if it would work with the headphone adapter etc. Essentially it is software and a powerful IR adapter that converts audio signals from your headphone jack to IR signals...

it is weak but it is better than nothing. i am using it my tytn as remote controller for my dslr on trips

Noob question about listening to MP3s through Bluetooth headsets.

Is there any way to do so? I did overlook the manual and did use the search feature and unfortunately i'm very much so a noob when it comes to avanced smartphone users. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you are running windows mobile 6.0 or earlier - then search on these forums (or google) for "BTAudio". this is a utility that when run, will redirect music to your bluetooth headset. Installing it may be just a tad difficult for a newbie - but it is very simple really.
If you are running 6.1 then redirecting to your bluetooth is an option when turning your bluetooth device on. On mine, when I choose (turn on) my bluetooth device via the connections settings, there is an option for "Set as wireless stereo"
Hope this helps or at least points you in the right direction

BTY it isnt stereo (unless you have two of them)

This will do the trick!
This will allow you to listen to all audio coming from the handset through bluetooth regardless if the bluetooth device is mono or stereo! I love this tool!
