It is a .NET 3.5/OpenNETCF application that tries to locate open WiFi Access points. It does so by repeatedly trying to connect to the most powerful AP and ping a well known address for reply.
I am planning to sell this app on the Marketplace for a small fee, but before doing so, I would like to gain more confidence by testing it to more devices. I only own two rather old HTCs and it seems to work fine. Yet, I suspect that it behaves very differently with the various wireless adapters out there.
So please, If you like to help me with this, PM me with your email/device model so I can send you the cab to try it. It only supports Touch Screen devices with QVGA/WQVGA/VGA/WVGA. Of course, all selected beta testers will get the final cab free of charge..!
EDIT: I now have enough people willing to try it. I will let you know if I want some more. Thanks again everybody.
EDIT2: Link for download is here:
http://marketplace.windowsphone.com/details.aspx?appId=09c5dae9-3800-45d3-aaea-6ef7b54df2df

ok i am about to pm you. i am way excited to test this app.

sign me up pls

Ill give it a wirl for you

Guys, pm me your details please! Otherwise I don't have a way to contact you!

And there's more to come (when finished)
Nav2recent should work perfectly, just READ the howto and download it here : http://ppc.jhps.shacknet.nu/ Zip-pass is "xdatest"...
Navigate2 is downloadable too, but i only give out the password by mail or PM, since i want to know who is testing it
please give comments or bugreports !
(tested on WM2003 !)
Would you mind if i post a link to this topic to the guys at pocketgpsworld. They've developed a few tomtom addons and would probably be interested in this.
Be my guest, but like i said, i'm not giving the password for Navigate2 away to anyone...
I'd rather have some of the guys here test it first...
My final goal is NOT to make money out of it, but a FREE "navigate to appoinment location" tool available to anyone....
Why ? Because it STUPID that navigationsoftwar has a tool to navigat you to addresses you probably allready know (Your contactlist !), but NOT to addresses you drive to for the first time : APPOINMENT LOCATIONS...
If their willing to help : Great ! If they want to create a tool alike and 'hide' it on their site, or ask money for it: No way...
Just posted the link and hopefully it won't be abused.
The guys at pocketgpsworld have already developed and released (free) a tt5 addon called "POI Capture" which allows for quick saving of speed cameras of various types.
Good luck and i hope everything goes well.

[APP]Train Timetables tool - for Sydney (Australia) users

Hi all...
I've been developing bits and pieces of stuff on my phone for my own use and I thought I'd share this with you. Unfortunately it's only useful for people who live in Sydney as it relies on 131500.com.au (locals will know what I'm talking about). Although that service has its own "Mobile" version webpage, I find it very inefficient to type in addresses and not have it remember my last selection - especially since I'm usually already in a hurry if I ever find myself needing to check the timetables.
It's a tiny (but multi-threaded for uber-fast interface) program (30kbs) that remembers your last To/From train stations and will directly fetch the timetable for trains in the next hour in a WebBrowser control. And a single-button (reverse) that gives you the same timetable for the other direction on your way home.
Note: uses internet data! - but only a single page. Probably 1kb or so each time?
Limitations (as by the 131500 mobile service): unable to directly give timetable for connecting trains. ie: both stations must be on the same line
Requires: .NET Compact Framework
Compatible with QVGA/VGA/WVGA devices. But I'm posting under blackstone forum because that's the phone I use
Freeware - and all comments/suggestions etc welcomed. Many thanks!
P.S. At uni now.. so i've only included a crude screenshot. I'll post a proper one if i get a fair bit of interest in this. thanks
hey mate do you think it would be possible to do up a brisbane one?
If there's a website that allows you to look up the brisbane timetables I don't see why not. alternatively if you can source a soft copy of the timetable?
www.qr.com.au
are you able to grab it from there?
Very useful, thanks!

I've just sent an email to QR. Will see what they say first..
It's good but don't like the fact it connects to the net to get the info.
If you look at timetables, they are mostly always the same, so you can get the info currently right now and make an offline version in which the times are accessible whenever and whenever there might be a new timetable, such as the new Chatswood lines, there could be an update button just to get the new times.
Other than that, good start but definitely needs an offline version.

Win CE 5.0 unlock

I got a device without knowing what Win CE 5.0 means!
And now I can throw a 400$ device in the garbage can!
Unless Anyone will unlock it for a reasonable sum of money.
The device is a Symbol MT 2090
The reason I got it was because this terminal has WLAN and I thought that it would also have Internet Explorer, but it doesn't.
After unlocking it, I still want to use the bar-code scanner and to be able to run on it a browser.
I am not allowed to write any email address yet but I will watch the threads daily. 10x
still locked
is there anyone able to help me?
I still have my device locked and no one to help me!
the main issue i have is with installing a browser on my wireless device (symbol MT 2090).
Please Guys!
UP!
Probably there is no result to my problem!
At least, somebody that knows... tell me!
The question was: Could I install any Browser on the Symbol MT2090?
I will pay 50 Euro for a browser that works
Hi again!
i saw that nobody wants to unlock my Symbol MT 2090
Probably an incentive will make you do it!
I can pay 50 euros for a browser that functions on my device.
I remind you that cab files cannot be installed on my device.
Thank you
go to slickdeals.net forums and post there in the tech support. usually people are good with software stuff.
At least I can try to help you.
Opera Mini 5 does run on my iPAQ 310, it's also a WinCE5 device.
I made a zip file for you, copy content to device.
and a screenshot:

​
And NOW What?
The Motorola Symbol MT 2090 runs the CE Core OS.
Our research indicates there are three editions of Windows CE 5.0:
-Core (bare bones)
-Pro (supports standard sdk features)
-Pro Plus
licensed at different prices.
Components needed for GSWBrowse are not included in the Core edition, only in the other two editions which cost more.
One cannot just legally take components from the Pro edition and upgrade the Core edition without violating Microsoft's licensing.
You will have to upgrade from Core to Pro.
I wish there was something we could do on our end but there isn't.
Let me know any questions, etc.

If you have a problem, how can anyone help, when they don't know, what phone you got, what ROM, What Kernel is installed, what caused the current problem and what you had done to solve it.
All these matters, for an XDA member to even THINK of helping you and they might just ignore, since you could not be bothered to provide the details. Most of all specific phones have specific forums and you should first use the search for that forum or look in the WIKI for that particular Phone, Imagine some one gave you an answer meant for a another phone that is not similar to yours, you could end up spending a lot of time and money trying to recover it. So be wise and do your part, search for your phone in this forum and post it there after you have tried searching for the answers you are seeking in that specific forum.
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.

If you are using XDA App or Tapatalk, long press on the post and select :good: Thanks Its easier to give "Feedback" in this manner than make an additional post.​
I'm suggesting to open threads in correct sections and explain the situation thoroughly.

I am thinking of starting an app for my college. Pretty much I want the app for it to have users or students in this case register make a username and password and then just for it to be forum kind of style where users can create threads and also for it to have a messaging system incase someone is selling a book both users can communicate with each other. the thing is i have no idea where to begin if anyone can show me a step by step or just a summuray on what to do to make this.

Buy domain from namecheap, hosting from dreamhost. Use phpbb as forum software (completely FREE) or vBulletin. Start a web forum, install Tapatalk plugin. Share link.
Tada! No programming at all.

This may sound like a good solution but it becomes complex for the user when they have to use forum software. I am not sure you have can limit functionality with Tapatalk. OP is trying to create an application that is simple and includes his/colleges branding. Another problem is using Tapatalk since it's a generic application and you can't rebrand it for his college or niche group. I know it looks like OP is trying to redesign the wheel but I think he's trying to do it in a way that makes it more efficient and, in a way, more useful for users.
@OP
I am quite new to Android dev and I learning by using "Google: Android developer basics" (I can't post links since I have < 10 posts) I am not sure if it's the best way but I think it would be a good place to start.
Quick one please. Which hosting provider did you choose here if I may ask?
