Palm messaging works on Dash

Hello all,
Wanted to share that I was able to install the cab file taken from the palm messing that was found in the MDA section of xda-developers.com forum, can't find the thread now sorry!!!!!! But I was able to install and get the program to send text messages out, but it will not thread because in the registry couldn't I couldn't change the sms key to sms.old
In the Dash registry it was a lil different than the MDA, if anyone could help would be greatly appreciated. I know it's simple just not sure, still neebe but willing to learn and try!!!!!!!!

Yes..someone please get this to work. As i'm sure we are all coming from MDA or similar devices. I was one of the lucky ones to get the threaded sms app from Palm working on my device. It's definitely nice. Don't get me wrong the 2 sms threader apps that are available now: sms threader & TXTMAN are nice..but they have some big tradeoffs that didn't occur on the Palm version.

umm..wow..it really does work. I did the normal instructions from the "How-To"... no notification sounds for it though. Im sure a little registry hacking could fix that. Everything threads hmm..testing mms..well i actually i cannot test..just realized I can't even navigate anymore lol. Pressing the back key closes the program. ARGHH! you can get around the smiley's and Mytext just buy bringing up the option but other than that it looks like a dead end. Any suggestions?

I was using the cab file for the ppc and I haven't been able to get it work like it was working on the MDA. Tried all kinds things in the registry, but nothing seemed to work.
Then I finally got the thread to work but all together lost MMS, As for your situation did you make the registry tweaks to sms and mms1 and change them to .old? Not to familiar with 1.5 and assuming it may have to have the same setup. If I find anything I will let you know.
For now I have taken it off and it required for me to reset the phone and start all over. So once again I will be working on the aforementioned issues.

I didnt do the registry entries, I wasnt able to find them on BB's site.
The version I have is branded as "SmartPhone" vs the PPC version which I also have.
I think it is for the older processor type maybe?
G

ok, found the info on BB's site and made the registry changes as well as the app unlock.
VC still refuses to run on my Dash, all I get is "VoiceCommand has encountered a problem, restart voice command"
Noticed that voice comand also completely breaks the built in voice dialing

Could someone send me the install file please? thanks

Did you even bother searching before you made this thread? or were you hoping for someone to just hand you what you're looking for? Is not that hard and it took me about 30 seconds to find some info on your app, by just using google . Start here. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...or+windows+mobile&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=

Yes, I tried search, before post this thread, i've found many softwares for pocketpc, who didn't work with htc excalibur.
I'm looking for freeware stock software, who works with HTC Excalibur (Windows Mobile 6).
I think maybe anyone in this forum, already have the same issue, and can help.
That would not be the objective of this forum?
Thanks Anyway

Checkbook app?

i was wondering if anyone knows of a good simple free checkbook applicatoin..
all i want is ability to make catagories, put in + or - amounts and make notes, i had one a long time ago i liked but lost it when my last phone died. the one thing it didnt do was pass the balance to the next month. would be nice if it has some form of stats and ability to text to a emal account a spreedsheet of some sort.
just curious if anyone knows of anything thanks..

What about Excel Mobile....

thats an idea i didnt think of. but i never have worked with spreedsheets much. was hoping something simple was already made. i was using money manager by 8mobile for a long time, but it is acting weird in my phone. the input screen numbers are tweaked out, and for some dang reason every number i enter in the thing adds a 0 to it. so 1 =10 10=100 never had that problem with it on my behold and since its a java app i thought it would run fine on here.
thanks for the input ill look into it was just looking for something simple and really easy lol

you can try millomoney. its simple and free

i have seen that one listed but out of the 10 links i found for it everyone of them is dead no page...
do you know of a good link or anyone got it to send to me?

here ya go. better than other links. may not be the newest one but give it a try.
when adding a new entry u cant see the description line but just scroll down and it will let you edit it even tho you cant see it all.

thanks but after installing its not saving anything, even installed it to the phone not the sim. i input a + or minus then goto view and it shows nothing.

Change Weather Cities on TP2 WINMO 6.5

I just got my TP2 two days ago and I love it!
I need to change the weather to find my city but unfortunately none of the hacks on here work for me.
I looked in the windows folder to find certain file but it wasn't there.
Maybe it has to do with me being on the official HTC 6.5 update??
I would prefer to edit a file and not install another application.
Any help is appreciated.

if u got windows mobile 6.5 with TF3D, u should just be able to click on the weather tab. press menu. and a slew of options appear. one of them being to add a new location or city. i think u can have like 7 or 8 different cities set up.
im not sure where ur from but i didnt need any hack to pull up my city...

My city wasn't listed

oh i see, u need some kind of wrk around. someone should chime in soon enough on that matter. hol on...i juss thought of somethin....u need a way to go into the system registry or that widget registry.....find out how the determine the different cites used(like by zipcodes or some ([email protected]). then once u do, put in ur cities info, in that place.........................i thinkkkkkkk...lmfao

If that idea doesn't work, search for a cab. There are some out there that will add different cities to your list, I used them on previous ROM's to try to fix a My Location issue I had. It didn't work for my issue with My Location,but I can definitely say that it opened up different cities that were not previously available.
Hope THAT helps.

I got it working. I used an app from the forums. It added my city.

You should tell everyone what you used, to assist others.
Also, you said in your OP that you tried some of the "hacks", and they didn't work. You should have said what those were, it would have helped us help you. Post was too vague, so I didn't bother responding.

I don't know what he used, but I use the Conflipper weather database v5. Downside is that it takes FOREVER for it to parse the huge database to find a city as you type the name.

I'm new.
Anyway, I used the JVH3 Weather Editor. Worked perfectly.
I would post a link but the forum wouldn't let me.

No, you haven't posted enough comments, but you could still copy the address into the text here. That would work.
Please, do that and also mention the names of the "hacks" that you tried that didn't work. That would help others in the future with this issue.

I'm looking for an app that... (users help users suggest apps)

I was thinking about this at work tonight. I don't know how well received this topic with be either. The purpose of this topic is to consolidate questions from users that are looking for an app that fits their need with suggestions from other people. I know that one person could not possibly know all the apps and games out there. Maybe you could suggest something you have seen, used, or are using now with fellow users that can't seem to find an app that does what they want to accomplish. This does not mean that if someone suggests something, that they have to teach someone how to use the program too (unless they don't mind helping them get set up or warning them about possible snafus). Sometimes there are apps that aren't in the market but on a website somewhere, and are great to have. For example, Music Junk, is a good prog to dl music (cough, cough). Google music junk android and I'm sure you will find the dev's site.
Anyways, I don't know how well of an idea this is but at least it's an attempt to help others out. I will be watching this thread as long as it stays on the first page or two of this section.

There was an app called paul's app of the day, lots of people use it, paul must be a popular guy.. idk.. looks like he's from Madaco forums.. but it did have some apps that we all know already.. but one or two that I never thought to check out. i did remove it after a week or so.. don't like to have too many apps if I don't use them.

AppBrain will suggest stuff based off what you have installed and what other users have installed in comparison to you. If I have x, Y, and Z and you have X and Y it will suggest Z.
FWIW - Paul O'Brien is the founder of MODACO...I follow him on twitter - he's like a Cyanogen in the UK. was big into G1 dev, I think he supports several devices, and did support the Hero when we first started getting roms on it.
