Does anybody knows where I can get a version of Windows Mobile 6 without any programs pre-installed (except mobile office)?
What I mean is I'm looking for a clean install of WM6 without any application like HTC-Home or theme's.
Is there a clean install possible or do I just have to disable the application in my Home-screen.
The reason is that I am trying to show some video to my friends and it still hangs. I think it is because all application started it takes too much of the memory.
I have a MDA COMPACT III
Thanks for the help

Running the O2 XDA IIS with the Imate 1.40 ROM installed WISBAR Advanced V2.0 I like it but when someone calls I get no notification no sound no picture CID etc. the backlight comes on but that is all I soft reset my device and it did work once but then went back to no notifications. I uninstalled WISBAR and all is back to normal.
Anyone else experience this issue or have any suggesitons?
Thank you
:?:
If you look at the Wisbar's site, you will find:
Supported Operating Systems
PocketPC 2002
Windows Mobile 2003
Windows Mobile 2003SE
(Please note that this is not yet compatible with PocketPC Phone Devices)
so its not compatible with phone edition versions of WM2003SE.
I faces more problems than yours, until i found a new BETA version for WM2003SE phone editions.
It has many new amazing features, such as phone signal meter, battery meter, skin folders on storage card, ... etc
The BETA version is 2.0.1.29
You can get it from here: http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1977
Cheeeeeeeeeeeers
ezzkht
Installed the beta so far so good but it has only been about 20 minutes
Thank you for pointing me toward the beta
No problem dude..
I am using this beta version for more than 1 month. Its going alright.. no any further problems till now 8)
Wisbar advance
Do any of you find that the wisbar sometimes stalls for a few seconds and eventually closes?
This is the only pain I had so far. It does happen quite often.

Been running the beta for over 5 hrs now and have not noticed the type of behavior you are describing.
Yes, the .29 beta does shut down on it's own sometimes. It's still in it's beta stage so I can't complain. If i don't aggravate the app, it behaves properly. I can live with it for now. Another problem is that some application will remove itself from the top bar or just close for no reason. I'm hoping the creator will fix it on the final version.
BTW, I read that the version for 2005 will be another complete re-write due to the OS and how it uses the memory.
does anyone have a link that works for the beta version? the supplied link download is not working anymore..
The current version of Wisebar is 2.4.0.1 and their web site advises that it supports the following Operating Systems
PocketPC 2002
Windows Mobile 2003
Windows Mobile 2003SE
PocketPC Phone Devices
I am running this version of wisebar on an XDA IIs but have removed the O2 software which seems to make it more stable. No problems so far.
Hi,
I have installed TomTom 7 on my XDA Orbit running Windows Mobile 6.1 and have found it to be incredibly slow in tracking your location on the directions screen.
Has anyone else seen this? Is there a way to increase the performance as it is unusable as it is - I have reverted to TT6 which runs fine.

Its ok on mine, am using tomtom7 (7.450(9028)) with map uk &IE 1409 v675.1409 and running O2 ROM
Tomtom 7
Hi all,
I'm new to this forum so please be gentle!!
I was wondering where Tomtom7 can be bought and whether anyone knows if it has the lane support functionality, where it tells you which lane to get into. I've looked on the TT site and it only appears to be available for the Diamond. I have an XDA Orbit 2.
Thanks
Jon

TT7 can not be bought, and it doesn't have advanced lane guidance either.
But it does support current maps, as opposed to TT6 for PDA, which only supports map from sometime before WW One.

Hey!
Did you find any solution for your problem? I experienced the exact same thing yesterday....even tt6 seems slow but not near as close as tt7....
iGo 8 runs fine.
I'm also running WM 6.1
,Olle
it might be that you just dont have enough free RAM to run it properly
Most people have got it running OK so that would suggest its something specific to your devices
Try a reset of your device (to make sure all programs are closed fully) and see how much free program memory etc you've got
Are you also running M2D or something else memory/processor hungry ?

Hey!
I have tried two different roms "Black & Blue 5.0" and "Tom-Oops Black". I have shut down all the today thingies and made sure that not other programs are running, then installed tomtom and even tomtom6 is really slow...not as slow as tomtom7 but I would say very near unusable....iGo on the other hand works allright....can anyone confirm that a specific rom works good with tomtom7, please also include your Radio version...
,Olle
Found my own problem....
I had added a lot of own POI's, these were all set to be shown on the map, when deactivated tomtom7 runs as smoothly as tomtom6!

Ive had my Touch HD for about 4 months now and its starting to loose its mind. The vibration only works sometimes for a few mins and then it stops, its gone really slow and freezes aswell. I am on the verge of selling it and gettin a Blackberry or the nokia e71. Is there anyone who can change my mind and help me with the problems? It would be greatly appreciated as the first few months i thought it was the best phone i ever had!

Will this fix the vibration problem as well because I dont really wanna spend alot of time changing the rom and then I either end up with a bricked device or still have the same issue. Just on the phone to orange now see if they can exchange my handset even though i have had it for 4 months now. wish me luck...
Orange is sending me a new handset tomorrow so hopefully that will fix the problem. They have advised me not to install any 3rd party software for a few days which should not be a big problem. But i was also told that if i experience any other problems on 2 more occasions that I would be able to change my handset for another model which is good customer service
Anyway now that i AM gettin a new touch hd, can anyone of the "senior" members of this forum give me their list of programs installed which have not caused the phone to slow down? I already know of fingerkeyboard, smschat (or smiley sms) and coreplayer. But I still am in need of a good gps software and the upgrade to TF3D v2 or v3 and a gd application to tilt the screen into landscape mode. Any help is much appreciated!
I have been using my HD for a while have not flashed any new ROM's but do have quite a list of 3rd party Windows Mobile software I use on it all working nicely.
Many of my applications are not freeware though, bought over the years as I'm a long time Windows Mobile user.
In my opinion you do not need to flash the ROM to still take advantage of your great HD
My applications include:
Pocket Informant
Resco Utility Pack
Softmaker Office Suite
SPB time
SPB Traveller
SPB Mobile Shell (plus the omnia SPB Skins skinning tool)
SPB Brain Evolution
SPB Finance
SPB Wallet
SPB weather
Pocket Investor
GarminXT GPS
MSS Converter
Phatnotes for MS Outlook
Skype
GSen
LockmeLite
SKTools
Sprite Backup
Finger Keyboard
Google Maps
HD Tweak
PocketMusic

Why don't you upgrade the stock firmware first to the new 1.56 and new 1.13 radio, supposed to fix a lot of issues and give better battery life / gps signal.
Is that the 1 from the HTC website? cos when i entered my serial number last time it said that the upgrade was not available for me so i assume that i already had the latest version...
EDIT: Dont you just love orange? I have just received my replacement and it is a generic handset. hehehe
Hello omz
To check your rom version start/settings/system/device information with the phone being 4 months old it will more than likely have version 1.14, the latest version 1.56 from htc.com is only available for sim free phones i.e. it was purchased with out a contract. As mentioned else where on this forum, providers like Orange etc will take a few months with there update if they bother at all. If they don’t your other option will be to either flash with a custom rom loads on this site or see if some one will send you there official rom. Software, video convertor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474955 this is excellent, screen rotation I like this one http://idevelopstuff.com/dev/WM/Fuze...creen_inst.cab but there is also gyrator, satnav TomTom 7.915 works a treat on these phones.

Hello,
I've got a application (corus kalendar) which is made for windows mobile 5 /CE.
Now i've got a new HTC HD2, which has wm 6.5 on it.
When i try to run the application the kalendar doesn't run full screen.
Is it possible to modify this?
Is there also somebody who can help me?
Hi Guys ...
This is my first post ever, aldo I'm allready a member for 3 years
Where to start .. I have an Artemis P3300 and I'm very happy with it ! My wife has a ELF with more memory, but I'll prefer My Artemis Anyway !!
I have a problem since a month that I can not solve because I dont find someone with the same problem !
I have windows mobile 6 Professional (CE OS 5.2.1620 build 18125.0.4.2
over there is the Spb mobile Shell version 3.5.0 build 9593
I have the SDHC drivers for my mem card of 8 gig
I turn also Iconsoft Phone Extension 2.2 (the best there is !!!)
and to speed things op a 247 Mhz I use Chi-Tai Dang Homescreen Plus Plus
To know where I am I use Tom Tom Navigator 7.910 (9185)
I have chosen very wisely what To put on it because with this I have still 11,44Mb Storage and 11,51Mb Program left !! So everything turned super smoothly and nice !!!
Untill a month ago where I constantly have the "cannot execute \windows\pcm.exe" When i see the message, then everything becomes incredibly slow and it doesnt even go to Call me anymore . The Call sound is also gone ...
Strange ...
Is there one person on earth who had the same problem like me, or who can help me out ???
That would B amazing !!!

hey, think your problem lies within the regestry.
not too sure but i think its a contact manager trying to launch, and cant..
try uninstalling the contact manager..(pcm.exe)
or...
even though you have spent time choosing which programs to install, i suggest you upgrade from wm6 to wm6.1, you will have more storage memory and more free ram! currently i have 38mb free storage and 25mb ram free and i have all the goodies i need installed..
(uspl cmon - first to flash any rom for artemis)
or hard rest..
(you will loose anything on device so back up all data..if you do..)
Incredible
Hey man,
I've exactly the same issue! And I have almost the same configuration with same applications...
Actually, I have an Samsung Omnia with Windows Mobile 6.1, I've also installed spb mobile shell 3 and PhonEx 2.2 (and I totally agree with you, it's the best!), and I've also a lack of memory (I mean main memory, not storage mem because I have 2x8Gb) with 10Mb left (but it's not really constant, it vary from +-1 or 2Mb without removing or adding application) and 40Mb for program, and after something like 1 hour using my phone, the "cannot execute windows/pcm.exe" appears and then, I can't launch no more application, and the opened applications crashed and I have to restart the device to refind a normal behaviour for 1 hour more...
So , I looked for this pcm.exe in my device and its attached logo is the Phonex logo and I tried to cut it from the windows folder to put it somewhere else and all applications worked except Phonex, so I think it's a part of Phonex, may be pcm means Phonex Contact Manager... I don't know, may be we should remove Phonex and reinstall it after???
I look forward to reading some smart idea... if someone gets some ;-)
Thanks
PS: I use iGo instead of Tom Tom and I think it is overwhelmingly better than the latter... with 3D building and above all the 3D landscape.
PS: if someone has a tip to avoid the lack of memory, I want well... Because despite I install all my application on the storage card, the main memory is always decreasing...
weird
It's weird, the problem looks to be fixed! But I've done nothing to fix it... weird
