Decuma products on WM6
Decuma products are only compatible with a list of devices that is available on BitWay and Handango. Decuma Japanese for WM2003SE and WM5, for example, purchased through the HP iPAQ Starter Pack Volume 4 is only compatible with HP iPAQ rx1950, hx2190, hx2490, hx2790, hx2110, hx2410 and hx2750 Pocket PC. There are currently no plans to extend our consumer products to the WM6 platform. If we do, a new version of the product will be made available.
Please uninstall Decuma from your WM6 device. If uninstall fails, you may need to do a factory reset on your device. Please contact your retailer or manufacturer for instructions.
Best regards,
Myron

Decuma works fine with my Qteq 9090 and on my TyTn with Wm5 with Swedsh lang. Working not on my TyTn with WM6

Dell Axim WM6 - XDA-Dev apps/hacks Tried and Tested

I'm starting this thread so Axim users of Football's (et al.) wm6 ROM can share what, if any, applications or hacks found on xda-devs that you have tried and recommend for our favorite VGA non-phone HTC device with the latest OS.. Also post which did not work, worked but not useful , and what tweaks were needed to get them to fuction best.
Note: Please note the original thread/post and give credit to the original developer/poster when you can. Also note what device (x50v or x51v) and ROM used.

HTC Audio Manager for VGA
I tested this version of the HTC Audio Manager and it works well and displays in full VGA. (Other versions found would not display well)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327188
The only problem I see is that the remote bluetooth controls do not work like they do on WMP. Also, you better like green.
Tested on Axim x51v with WM6 A02beta

pBar by nncuong
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284952&highlight=pBar
Task switcher/close-button/quick-launcher/wireless-toggler/system-info application all in one tiny place. Basically a magicbutton-like replacement for the fake 'close' button.
Just download and place the pBar.exe anywhere on the device. Latest version (v1.4) has problem that hitting the OK button on dialogs may minimize or close the main app if you select the 'Show Child Windows' option.
Tested on x51v WM5 A17, WM6 A01 and A02Beta (now also tested on A03 preview).

PocketCM Keyboard by Tene
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321712
Alternative keyboard SIP with better feedback for "finger typing" (similar to eye-fone keyboard). Fully configurable to any keyboard layout/language you may need with word completion/correction and predictive text.
Note: You will also need a VGA skin or it will not display correctly. (Rename the zip file you download to .skin and copy it to the application install directory - '\Program Files\PCMKeyboard\' if installed on device )
Usable, but new versions are rapidly being released with additional features. (Currently at v 0.8)
I found a 'spanish' layout in the forums that I like because it has more keys on the last line (including . and , keys near the space bar). Even though it is a 'spanish' keyboard layout, the dictionary can still be set to english.
Tested on x51v with wm6 A01 and A02beta.

Contact Manager v0.11 by TENE (Not PocketCM)
Want a scrolling, finger friendly contact list (ala eye-phone).
I have tested the original Contact Manager v.11 application found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314048&highlight=ContactManager
Unfortunately, this is no longer in development, and has morphed into PocketCM (also by Tene). PocketCM was designed for wm6 phones and will not work on the x51v (Error on startup). According to Tene, it will not work on any non-phone PDA.
Direct link to old CM v.11 http://www.pocketcm.com/olddl.php
Tested on x51v WM6 A01 and A02beta
Anyone try the other finger scrolling Contact Managers out there?

I tried various versions (3 tab, 5 tab, configurable, VGA specific versions) and they all seem to install, but no option in the today screen settings to activate. Has anyone figured out how to activate the plugin after install?

That has nothing to do with this thread. And no, if Dell never released WM5 for the X5 series, there's no reason to think WM6 will be released for it.

what about Internet Caliing (wm6 voip ) at Ax? it doesn't seem to work at all.

Are you referring to something like Skype?

this is not a app but it adds the clicks when you click on menus and stuff
tested and worked on x50v WM6 A02 rom was from the a person that work on the porting of wm6 to HTC Wizard don't remember
I also tested the home plug in and battery tray icon from the htc touch rom don't show up. (install but don't see them)
it maybe a vga compatible problem

I tried the Fix_WM6_Sounds.CAB file from above on Football's wm6 A03 preview. Works well. Adds the "dinks" and other sounds when clicking the menu. After CAB install, I did not notice the new sounds until a soft reset.
In the Football x51v WM6 thread, someone complained that there is no 'uninstall' of the CAB if you want to stop the new sounds. What I noticed is that after you install the CAB and go to Sounds and Notifications, the settings may be unchecked even though the sounds are activated. Just enable all the settings for the sounds (even if they are already active) then uncheck them. (i.e. cycle on, then off) By unchecking Events, Screen Taps and Hardware buttons, I was able to 'silence' my Axim as before.
Edit: Menu clicks are part of Events. After this CAb install, you can't silence the clicks without silencing all event sounds. See this thread for more info and two other sound schemes you may want instead of this one that adds all sounds back to wm6.
Note: It appears that all of these CABs add missing/new sound files and registry entries to access them. Fix_WM6_Sounds.CAB adds sounds to the scheme called .AllSounds. The CABs in the other thread add two more (.WM5 and .WM6). According to that thread, you can switch between them by changing the registry entry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event\.Scheme followed by a soft reset. You could also edit the .AllSounds key to remove the sound file definition for menu actions. See the other thread for the locations of the string in the key. (looks like its position 10 & 11).
This is another useful post about sound schemes.
Update: I created this Registry code that defines a new scheme called ".SomeSounds" and sets this as the scheme to use. The only difference between this and .AllSounds is that I set menupop and menusel to "empty" sound, thus eliminating the clicks on menu but not the other events. Note : you need to do a soft reset after importing the registry. Use a software based soft reset because for some reason the hardware reset button on the back will reset the registry back as well. I use the soft reset button on pBar.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event]
".SomeSounds"=hex(7):41,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,72,00,69,00,73,00,6b,00,00,00,43,00,6c,00,6f,00,73,\

Japanese hx4700 WM5 ROM

Does anyone have any experience with upagrading from WM2003 to WM5 on a Japanese hx4700?
I need Japanese IME and CJK isn't a workable solution for me.
Obviously the Japanese WM5 upgrade CD isn't sold anymore so really would appreciate it if anyone could help me out.

N560 WPA2

Hello all, I'm new here.
Sorry for my English, it's not my native language...
I hope, also, it's the right section of the forum.
I searched this forum for some information if there is any possibility to
make my FujitsuSiemens PocketLoox N560 PocketPC to work in WPA2/AES
wireless networks.
I didn't find any clear, usable, information, even at least if it is or it is not
possible. It might be possible I didn't searched enough?
All the wireless networks I'm working with have this set-up (WPA2/AES)
and this facility would transform for me the PDA from a funny toy to
a really useful tool.
The three N560s we are using are running the original WM5 operating system.
If there is a solution to make those PDAs to work this way (wireless
WPA2/AES), I'd like to know. Also, I'd like to know if it's really impossible
(hardware reasons, etc.).
If there is a solution and I have to, I'll upgrade them to WM6.x, but I'd
prefer not to (for various reasons, not to be discussed now).
Thank you in advance for any answer!

Did you solve your problem? If not, try installing Odyssey Access Client for Windows Mobile (there is an 30day evaluation version on the web) - I think this is the only way. This software gives the possibility to check the AES option no matter what version of WM are you on. As far as I am informed FS LOOX N560 doesn't support AES, it's TKIP only... It is the kind of hardware issue rather than software one. Tell me if that helped.

WPA2 is not supported on WM6 either.
I and many others are using Newplow's WM6.0. Google for his site in Russia. Use the language translation in Google to get your own language. He is working on WM6.1 but neither upgrade supports WPA2.
And do remember the WM6 upgrades are done by enthusiasts not the original manufacturer so if you ask nicely they might include it in a future release, but there is not gurantee they will respond to your request.

Hi there,
As I'm running Newplow's latest WM6.1 on my RPDA N560, which is technically a Loox N560, I can confirm that WPA2 is possible with the Loox N560 and the above mentioned ROM.

Argh this OS hunt is driving me crazy! :-(

Which WM 6.1 OS in here is the closest to the official release and supports Danish keyboard layout? Please help me... I really wanna use my phone with 6.1 but if I can't find a good release I might as well go back to the crappy but working WM 6 :-(
-Anders

This has been said before but, there is no "official" release of wm6.1 for Hermes... HTC DON'T support the Hermes anymore.

Oh no no I know My question is simply: What version of the 6.1 OS has support for danish keyboard layout and contains the least amount of homebrew?

If you search, there is a way through registry edit that you should be able to alter for different languages that use the same alphabet.
Use a Lite or naked rom as a base but make sure you have all your mms/sms settings as these will have to be added back in.

I have read about this yes but don't seem to understand it correctly! I'm sorry that I am a noob with the registry but could someone please tell me how I do it?
