Hi,
I recently got an xda IIs, I have managed to connect to my broadband connection via my cradle - however I am now trying to set up a wlan connection to transfer my files over as I left my cradle and charger at my other house, doh!!!
I can get a connection however - for the life of me - I don't know how to transfer files!!?!?!! Now that I have a connection - should my pocket pc not show up in My Network Places? I cant find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I also have a second question, I am aware that the onboard memory is volatile - but can someone clarify if the storage memory on the phone (not sd card) is non-volatile or not.
Many thanks,
LCMGxs
Hi
Windows Mobile does not have a network client built in. From what I can gather, it does support SMB, but has no front end. Suggest you get a copy of pocketlan which is a front end.

Other than that you'll have to use activesync (this will work over wifi once you have used it once over USB).

cheers mate.
Hi all
With resco explorer you can map a networtk drive and and the transfer files as normal..

Hi there,
I have an O2 XDAiis. I would like to put the sim card from this into my Nokia 6230i and use my XDAiis as a PDA connected to my mobile through bluetooth. I have a IPAQ and am able to connect it to to my Nokia 6230i through bluetooth dialup networking but I cannot seen to be able to do this on my XDA. The connectivity I would like is a dialup modem and GPRS… please help
Thanks
Fiona
PS I am using the latest rom and bluetooth drivers from O2
Hi,
Yeah, the bluetooth seems to be cripled to stop you connecting via another mobile phone and make you use the operator it's got a SIM card for.
I would love to do this to - my blue angel is now my 2nd phone/pda/satnav and GPRS is expensive - if I want to use cheaper GPRS in it i've got to swap the SIM card with my main phone
I've looked about quite a bit but can't find any kind of info or workaround.

I found this app by Modaco and thought to share it with everyone:

Have you try it on your Universal? Does it work?
Just tried this on an I-Mate JAMin and it works great. Thanks for posting it, very handy!!
Tried it on a Wizard, works flawlessly! I am in love! Thanks for finding this!
Work fine on HTC Prophet. Some experience would like to share as follow:
1. After you installed the program, soft reset first. If you encounter error message when you run this program first time, soft reset again.
2. During the file transfer process, the PDA cannot read the Memory Card.
3. Don't turn off the PDA power. You need to turn off any power time out setting in the PDA. Otherwise the process will stop.
Works like a charm on my MDA PRO with JASJAR ROM
Works perfect on Himalaya also!

Thank you it does not work on my dopod 900 i get an USB error.
Can u suggest please cheers
What does it do exactly?
Is it similar to Softick's Card Export 2?
So when installed, active sync via USB won't work anymore?
Is it always ON or is there a way to turn it OFF?
the program acts like a toogle. The first time you call it you can activate it, the second time you can deactivate it.

I get the following error
"Cant switch to mass storage USB driver, error 1f"
I have installed it to my device, not sd card and have soft reset it before using it.
Could it be that it doesnt support 4GB sd cards? I am using a 4gb transcend card.
I have an M5000
cheers
I was able to read a few more comments from the site, but I want to know your experiences regarding Active Sync and WM5torage switching on your Universals.
Is it possible to delete protected files from the \windows directiry with this software ?
well... i'm experiencing problems after activesync. WM5torage can't seem to initialize just like softick. I have to do a reboot and run WM5torage before activesyncing to make it work. I hope i'm not the only one having this problem... cuz if it is ... i need to do a clean reinstallation.
Jupiiiii
Great Tool !
Made my day.
Works perfectly on the Universal and the Wizard
Cheers

Nice tool. Save us $20. Here is what I found out with regards to active sync:
1) I had active sync running fine. Turned active sync OFF while still plugged in and turned on WM5torage and activate it. Computer stated "Unable to recognized device". Unplugged my Exec and plugged it back in and computer recognized it immediately as a Local Hard Dirve. Excellent piece of software.
2) I had active sync open in the back ground without being plugged in. Tried plugging it in and the computer failed to recognize my Exec. The small active sync icon on the task bar just moved. I unplugged my device and totally shut active sync application from start>settings>running applications. Plugged my Exec back and active sync connected without any problems.
Conclusions:
1) We need to totally kill active sync from running before it can reconnect without problems after using WM5torage.
2) We still need to unplugged the device if we want to run WM5torage or re-run Active Sync. It would be nice if we can just toggle in and out of it without manually unplugging the Universal.
All in all this is a very handy little application and I am glad it is FREE. What makes it nicer is that it has such a small footprint: 45kb. I did not experienced any errors upon installation. Nice work by the developer.

Voila..!! It worked with out USB errors. Cheers, Taurus
It works perfect !!!
Thank you !!
Version 1.3 attached here!
Version 1.3
- added prompt to soft-restart the device after installation
- when storage is attached to USB host, mobile device USB controller and flash disk are ordered to be kept in "Power On" state
- added switch to choose between "Removable" and usual ("Hard Disk") device classes. Will affect how the host OS treats the device - for instance, it will not create System Restore and Recycle Bin if class is Removable.
RE
Wonderful! It works as stated on my QTEK 9000 Universal
With PHM Tray Launch I could put an icon in my bottom task bar
:lol:
In order to fix my buggered wifi problem I purchased a 'G' sdio wifi card from spectec. I thought I would post my experience.
The card does work! It has good speed (perhaps fitting the 'g' rating, but I am not sure) and EXCELLENT range (compared to my old Dell CF wifi card in my Axim X5 anyway).
The only problem with it is that if the unit powers off or if you remove the card, you must soft-reset to gain access to the wlan driver again. The card will power up and flash, but there will be no connection... in fact the WIFI utility will not even open until you soft reset. All I do is run WIFIfofum and keep the card alive all the time.
BTW, if you use POCKETLAN with this, you can map a folder on a file share and pretend it is your missing SD storage card. Works quite nicely.... My plan is to buy a BLUONYX (when the come out) and use it as a massive SD Card replacement.

wow you must really need wifi to make you buy a separate one...
but the problem with the wlan driver losing access when you power off the device or after turning it off is actually ROM dependent....
thanks for the info anyway regarding the card
Yeah. It seems to have something to do with keeping the driver alive and getting confused with the built in driver when it is time to revive it. Often WIFI comes back in the 'on board' form. I have been toying with the idea of just swapping the names of the drivers in the registry...
WIFIFOFUM2 does a pretty good job (if I remember to start it). The only drawback is battery power is lost.. (you cannot remove the card, even with it running).
I don't how anyone can live without WIFI on these things... there are just so many uses for it...
Skype... web surfing... syncronising podcasts directly...a whole host of lan services...vnc... windows terminal services...
I do a lot of support work now at home... I just carry my VNC or WTS connection around with me instead of being tied to a desktop/laptop... it's great!
i forgot to mention that it does not work in wm6. i tried. the driver locks up on install.
Really? I didn't realize that was an SDIO slot. Thanks for letting me know, the wifi on my uni is dead too, and i was thinking about buying a new phone. hehe
Is it Spectec SDW-821 SD WiFi Card 802.11b/g ?
I find black one (http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=132725) and blue one(http://www.buygpsnow.com/spectec-sd...821-sdio-wireless-lan-retail-package-613.aspx) in internet , does it make any difference?
I found blue one is always cheaper than black one while searching internet.
I'm palning to buy one since my O2 XDA EXEC WiFi has poor reception,. and I need to get better option.
It says Transfer data rates is up to 54Mbps at 802.11g, so I'm hoping I get faster speed, and range.
Any updates on this?

I have an Qtek 2020 with PPC 2003 (ROM v1.75.103) on it and I just bought a Spectec SDW 821 b/g WiFi Card. It seems as if I can connect to my WLAN (it says 'connected' in the Settings menu) but when I for example start Pocket Internet Explorer I cannot surf the internet, because it says there is no connection??? When I then want to configure the connection I only cannot choose WLAN...
Any idea?

It's a ROM related problem. I'm currently running c_shekhar's 6.1.1b version with a Spectec 820 b WiFi card without problems. See the c_shekhar's Himalaya (Qtek 2020) ROM forum here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369701
The 'b' version is not available anymore and some people complain about the 'c' version with the Spectec card, but try it out first. Maybe c_shekhar can send you the 'b' version to you personally.
Thanks for your reply. I hoped it could get it working without the scary flashing thing (). I will think about it...

hi,
I answered myself for the previous message, the problem is that, with an integrated USB bridge facade of my tour, deploiment of packadge did not take place as required,
morality: Always check your USB connection is directly connected to a USB port.
otherwise, everything works very well, no incompatibility, or problems, great!
Registry trick to fix WIFI
This is a trick to fix my O2EXEC. The internal WIFI died, so I bought a SPECTEC 11G SDIO wifi card. It works with WM6, however when you power off the machine the wifi stops working. You have to reset with the wifi card in to get it to work again. I suspected that it might be a problem with the old driver for the built in wifi....
I got a registry editor (REGEDITCE c1.2) and found all the references to TIACXWLN.DLL and changed it to point to WLAN11G.DLL
goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
then
COMM
then
TIACXWLN
edit
IMAGEPATH
to say WLAN11G.DLL
then do the same on
TIACXWLN1
I have not tested too much, but initially it seems to survive a power down and a card replacement.
I have been testing for a few days now and it is working great. a few seconds after inserting the car, it connects.... and even shows the icon (which was previously there only when the built in wifi was on)

Where can I buy products from this company ?
thank you
Dear Friends,
how much I have understood, this device does not allow to install additional programs. I would like to use it for reading of books (Haali Reader and other such programs). Whether It is possible to install programs somehow there? For example, having changed the system register or having inserted memory card with autorun.
Thank you.
