Hello,
Apologies for long post , but I am very keen on this project and I am in need of help from all the lovely cookers out there .. Well I have an idea , but unfortunately lack the skills to turn it to reality , so I was hoping someone with the time , energy and skills would be kind ... I like the concept behind "remote tracker", because it will basicly sleep silently and hidden , waiting for you to send the text , then wakes up and will txt you back with various info .. like GPS / cell tower location info , new owner , new sim card .. txt message s ect .. It also can detect a SIM card change . So this would be good to have if the phone was stolen ... NOW .. as I understand it .. the settings are inside a encrypted reg file of some sort .. Now If this SW got added to the ROM the reg file would also need to be in there , and I am assuming such things as the emergency number and email stuff like that needs to be in there as well .. I dont know anything about cooking up ROMS , but I think there is a part of the rom .. pre ROM ?? .. where you can Specfiy application to be installed as part of the rom , like for instance the updated .net version , AppToDate, and any opther " supporting software's" stuff like that ..
I also like TRACK ME , while this offers somewhat similar functionality , it is idaly used for stuff like , for example tracking a run or walk .. I can add tis manually , but if you already baking , it might not be too hard to add it in
Track me needs some SQL stuff too , so it might be more trouble
So My question is .. can someone please teach me how to bake up a Rom based on RUU_Diamond_HTC_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1
With remote tracker, and Track Me , all working and configured for my infos and SIM card .. and I dont know if there is a way , even after a hard reset that some part of the rom would auto load the proggie and settings and everything .. maybe if it just loaded remote tracker for now , and had a way that even if they hard reset , it would still work ... like send my girlfreinds mobile a text saying " phone is at GPS/ Cell phone tower location xxxx .... and has new sim xxxxx in it"
ALSO A SIDE note , the method of flashing from the Internal memory comes to mind , as that might even make it a bit harder for a thief , or the causal person who found my phone ...
Any idea at all , also if you guys have used other softwatres for tracking the phone after it is stolen or lost . do tell ..
Any help.. suggestions .. Idealy maybee somone can cook me a rom and I can test it on my phone
You realize that this solution will not work if teh thief will flash his own/other rom?
As usual - you will never get teh smart ones, only the stupid/uneducated ones will get caught...

Not sure why you see it as a bad thing, but i'd personally rather have somebody completely dumb with WM rather than one who knows the tricks and work-arounds.

There are already apps on the market, that enable you to track your phone, receive an SMS with the new number...
Take a look at kaspersky e.g.
And of course, if someone flashes the phone, its all useless. So I don´t think its worth the effort.
bye,
Thilo
seriously?
you guys seriously think that someone who is gonna steal a phone or find a phone is gonna be able to flash the rom? first thing they are gonna do is try and sell the phone. you guys are giving the rest of the world population to much credit. majority of ppl have no clue what a rom is or what flashing something even meens. but yes a tracking software would be essential now that gps are getting so accurate u might even find the guy.
Hello everyone,
I've used my PDA2K on & off for the past 5 years but have always felt it's pretty much not worth the effort using it for anything serious. The net is slow and the general Windows 2003 SE operating system fragile, I reckon I've soft reset a thousand times since owning the unit. What advice can anyone give on how to improve it's capabilities & make it less boring to use, what change should I try. I'm not worried about frying the ROM as I only use this to surf the net nowadays & thats about it, just feel it's too good to bin but want to get something more out of it than I'm getting now.
Thanks any advice on possible software changes would be appreciated.
i would say...try win 6.5..no doubt you like that
regard stef
The PDA2K is still the best device if you need a mobile log typing unit. It's beacuse of the built in keyboard and the big portrait format screen (wich is the best if you have to to type in lists, contact data a.s.o.). This unique feature is the reason why I can't change my PPC.
Win 6.5 for me is not so important, there are few drawbacks compared to WM2003SE (no build in Excel encryption, less usable screen area (because of hotkeys), no direct menus in office applications.
install wm5, when you get bored install SPB Mobile Shell, when you get bored again change the color of the menu
seriously its quite nice app, have nice launcher etc... try it...
Thanks
Don't get me wrong I love it but just feel I'm missing something as I'm sure it's capable of so much more.
I'll take the advice and have a play with upgrading, do current 2003 apps such as my TomTom run on the upgrades. Even if not I think I'll give it a go anyway.
Thanks again for the replies
Yes it works on new WM version
I think he becomes unconfortable of the buggy WMG.S (or 6.5 we use other names cause Mycrosooft hunts us) you need to taste first WM6... then 6.1 his manilla 2D is great... and then G.S is beta but fine... try it all but men
follow everything step by step at upgrading please if you have any question ask here please.
Not so Boring now
Well + Que PPC and others,
I took your advice and upgraded and its a lot less boring.
I can't sync though, it tries but the an error message appears on BA moaning about a USB port not being available.
When I now turn on the BA I get a white screeb with start and a few icons at the top and Phone + Contacts at the bottom, clicking start takes me to a black screen with icons. If I soft reset I get the red/green/blue/white stripes while it resets.
Is all this normal or am I still stuck in bootloader, I'm new to all this so what I mean is could this be something I've not finished off correctly that is stopping me syncing now.
I don't mind fixing all the other problems once I can sync OK.

Heh tjpearson, you was searching for new use cases. I suggested to use your device more professionally. You decided to have an OS update. This way you decided the best use case for you is trouble shouting.
Seriously, I can't understand why OS upgrading is such an important thing on the BA. The benefits of the device lies in the big screen and the built in keyboard. If you search for a nice GUI take a iPhone.
No idea
Hiya pdahunter,
I have no idea what you mean or what your advising.
All I want is to surf and keep important notes plus store my gadget PDF manuals plus photography bumph.
Hey ho going for a bath now and then bed, tomos night going to watch United win, I hope, so won't be able to look at this again til Thursday night.
Hope I've no fkd this Pocket PC up with what I've done.
come on guys!!!! why always this ends like this F***N S**T THINGS!!!
EGZTHUNDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! come on men! make your job here please...
I will prepare the scene for you a little...
@pearson
First of all please tell us wich ROM did u upload... again... please full charge your batt before UPGRADE...

Men write exactly the error message please, Meaning it says this... I guess i need to do.... I think my problem is... are worthless words here please provide exact messages. (does you enable the checkbox advanced network on setting usb settings?)
When I now turn on the BA I get a white screeb with start and a few icons at the top and Phone + Contacts at the bottom, clicking start takes me to a black screen with icons.

The white screen cant be posible men... I will xplain you the new OS built..
If I can guess what you've upgrade... I mean I nedd to know wich ROM are you upgrade please provide the name or the link where you find it...
FIRST: The OS 2003 didnt has the soft buttons PHONE at left bottom and right at right bottom cause the new OS are designed for PDA phones that has buttons on that place... thats all... ok.
SECOND: you said that when you tap on start it tooks you to a black screen with icons i gueeeeeeees you have WM6.5 cause since WM2003 we had start cascade menu like windows XP or VISTA or Whatever... Thats normal on WM6.5 if you want the older start menu? just... downgrade a WM6 or 6.1 it has the older start menu.
THIRD:
If I soft reset I get the red/green/blue/white stripes while it resets.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well the boot screen is hardcoded in roms so... is not an issue is normal we can only change the splashscreen...
known new features and pro's for a new ROM tooks its time men I mean new apps and programs are not supported with WM2003 so this is the very first pro of upgrading...
You are not stuck on bootloader or... are you on a black screen with Serial or USB upside and downside a version... it is BOOTLOADER not the RGB screen! ok?
if it cant boots and it cant pass trough the tricolor screen well seems you need to upgrade again maybe your batt was dead on middle process and it dont have enough batt to boot... but maybe you dont wait the time... or maybe you need reupgrade a rom...
Dont be so alarmed men your device is fine calm down you are not brick jejeje

1. I did not change nor delete anything here.
2. Again, why change the OS to a Version the device is not made for. The only reason I can see is a better system GUI or new applications with a better GUI. That's why I suggest to take a iPhone if this is important.
3. I'm frustrated because I'm realy interested in the technical benefits of WM6.x. Better WLAN Connection? Stereo Bluetooth? Some unique apps that doesn't run on wm2003?
But as soon somebody speaks about WM6 on the BA the focus changes to trouble shouting.
4. Why it's not helpful to say "Don't change the OS version if you search for better use cases!" ?
Great!! you have your OWN ANSWER

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.
Sorry, Sorry, Sorry
WOH I didn't mean to upset anyone here, I'm learning.
Have no idea of what I'm doing apart from trying to update my BA to surf the net faster, be better to use and so I don't have to soft reset every 2 minutes. This is my 1st attempt, if I've gone in too deep then tell me, I'll back grade to 2003 and start again with whatever you recommend.
You know your stuff so stay friendly, calm down and I can help you set up race suspension on a Yamaha R6 for the best cornering Or if you want advice on patching a Technomate Satellite box I'm your man.
I will go back to 2003 and you tell me what to update, cos you are the men that know, I defo don't, nice one !!

Well... I can tell you every steps but men.... Im on my job...
So i havent enough time to post here the process... but if you accept i can add you via MSN just PM me dont post your email here...
If not you just need to be sure follow this steps exactly how is said if you have any question ask here please ok
let me search for the link.
Hello!
I am searching for an alternative to the normal Pin-Enter-Lockscreen.
I remember something, years ago..
There was a programm witch created a very simple pin-entering.
You had to connect some points to a "picture" witch was setted up by yourself.
So, in other words:
i am searching for a programm, witch does lock my phone and saves my stuff when its lost or stolen, but i dont want to type a pin code ;-)
sorry für my bad english.
Thanks for reading
no one has an idea ?
you can try throttlelock.
http://www.throttlelauncher.com/portal/Downloads/ThrottleLock/throttlelock-07
looks good
but I remember something in 3d...
Okay, i tryed the programm..
Its like i wanted it..
But:
I cant fix the thing, that you can skip the "pattern-entering" with pressing the "end-call" button...
Its not that savem if a thief kan press this button, if he does not get the right "pin" ;-)
Is there any alternative ?
*I've been working
*new roms are now avaliable
*have not downloaded yet
this is my question..

I remember that this was included in some ROM from this forum, but I really do not remember in which one. For sure it was one with Manilla2D. For 75% it was one with "colour" home screen (something like this: h t t p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542428).
can u give us the rom now? is it ready?
