Just want to share a desktop tool I build which can upload Office files to Office Hub based on Heathcliff74's work.
Steps to use:Extract all files and run the EXE file.
1. Connect
2. Go to office tab
3. Click the upload button. Select office files you want to upload
4. The file will appear in Office hub on the phone. You may need to close Office hub by "Back" key to refresh the view.
One interesting thing I notice is that we can also deploy PDF files to My Documents and Office Hub will recognize it and assign a red color for PDF files. Office Hub will even launch Adobe Reader. Unfortunately, Adobe Reader does not have access permission to My Document and will return an error.
What could that mean? MS planned to give Adobe a backdoor but Adobe failed to deliver it?
2012.01.06. Updated a new version (2.1) with PDF support. You must install Adobe Reader using XAP to make it work. Adobe Reader installed from MarketPlace won't work. You may get the XAP from http://www.mediafire.com/?848nhfde7hqsqww according to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317357, who provides a similiar PDF uploader application.
I'm guessing this works by installing a simple XAP file, and thus requires developer unlock (Chevron or AppHub or WindowBreak or whatever)? Just checking.
That's correct. System requirement should be: Dev Unlocked Phone, Phone SDK, Zune and .Net Framework 4.
Nice, tried it out and works perfect. Going to the frontpage
What is Creader for ?

Tested the 2.1 Version on my Samsung Focus Chevron Unlocked. Works nicely including PDF Upload.
Can we get the same kind of file list for office document or is it limited by the API
Also I will suggest to use Popup notification or Progress bar to display when the file upload is completed.
The notification position is way too low and new nitrification goes under existing ones which is not very clear.
Where do I get creader?
this is awesome! With this loophole found, would there be any chance of getting access to the outlook files on the device so that an Outlook USB sync tool could be developed?
Will try it. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions. PDF upload using standard Isolated Storage API while allows read and write. Office files are not stored in isolated storage. Therefore, I have to use a hack to work around it, which doesn't support read.

CReader is a Text book reader developed by my friend. It was designed to download from skydrive. However, seems skydrive connection is not so stable. I originally developed this app so that we can download text file to CReader without the need of skydrive or internet connection. But later on, I found we can do much more. PDF and Office files are way more important.
Question, why not support the Marketplace version of Adobe Reader? You won't be able to read files from its isostore, but you can still deploy files there.
thanks, the uploader works fine !!!
it can save my time putting the docs from my computer
@Thunder
Thanks for this app !
I know that you can´t launch pdf´s if they are stored in My Documents folder but you can share them via email (Storage Device => long press).
Could you release a version which copies pdf´s to My Documents folder or to both folders (isostorage of adope reader and My Documents folder) ?
Thanks in advance.

If you want to upload PDF to my documents, in the file open dialog for Office files, you can click the file type drop down and there is an option for PDF. If you select an PDF file there, it will be uploaded to My Documents. I don't think many people want to upload to both locations.

That actually was left over during my test of uploading PDF to My Documents. Anyway, look like it is MS who changed their position. And maybe Adobe did not respond quickly.

I think Adope never responds because since 2010 there isn´t any update of the Adope reader. I would be easy to add a share option to the app but it looks like that there isn´t any interest to update the app or MS doesn´t permit it...
Dude, it worked!! I'm on a HTC Trophy with v2/v3 drivers that restricted certain reg entries and won't let WPDM or Touch explorer even see the My Documents folder. How did you do this?

Are you tired of the same old boring activesync or wmdc for your Windows mobile device? All of us who have used Microsoft’s so-called sync utility know that it’s nothing compared to their Zune software which they have created. Anyway, you’re now in luck. I have finally gotten to the edge of my patience trying to sync up my phone with their software and ive started making my own replacement for it. Currently, Hydros Sync Center supports being used as a normal music player as well as a device sync utility. Due to it being only a beta, you will not be able to transfer files with the phone, but already it is much more user friendly than the old Activesync. All you need to do to install is unzip the package and run the setup.exe installer.
UPDATE: Tutorial has been posted at hydrosmobile.com on adding widgets
Current Features in beta 3

This is a sync software and part of the definition of a sync software is the idea of being able to access your files. I hope there is no misunderstanding but this needs access to your box net account because it needs to sync up files. If you like windows mobile device center, then go ahead and use it but I want to be clear on what my software does.
so anybody got any other ideas they want me to implement into this app for replacing activesync?
beta 3 is posted and it has cab install feature + pictures library + some bug fixes so it doesnt freeze too much + AUTO SYNC!!!
-Check it out in first post
i know this might be a tall order, but could you make your sync center like the one provided by HTC for Android phones (HTC Sync)
that eye candy is just irresistible!
wow thats tall. could you please post a pic of it? i could try to make a theme. Problem is that sync utility doesnt actually "play" music.

This will be improved in the next release (a week or two, if I can deal with some performance issues) - there will be a general purpose "download from any website" feature, so you won't have to put your books into an OPDS catalog before you can get them onto your phone.
You will have to publish them onto a web site though. But that could be something you do only temporarily, while transferring them onto the phone. And of course you can do it just within your own home network, and using a simple web server installed on your PC to do it. When I publish the Freda update, I will also publish a link to a suitable web server program.
I seriously hope this feature is there soon.
Because I really need that ereader for school.
On 17/12 I have a dutch exam and I need to be able to read my book on my phone because the original copy is rented by someone else.
So I have the epub file of it but no ereader.
I was browsing the marketplace recently and there's a reader for epub/html/plaintext that syncs files with Dropbox. Don't remember what it was called though.
Thats ezReader, but it isn't free

There's Skydrive and Dropbox that have web interfaces.
vangrieg said:

Yes, if you want to put your books on SkyDrive or DropBox, the forthcoming new release of Freda will be able to download them from the web interface (but only if you put them in the 'public' area, because Windows Phone 7 has some hard-to-fix issues around website authentication, passwords, cookies, etc.).
The Freda version that's on Marketplace at the moment is only able to get your books from Skydrive or DropBox if you construct an OPDS catalog containing links to the books (for DropBox, you can use the calibre2opds program to do that).
The 'web server' solution I mention would be for the case where you have your books stored on your PC and don't want to upload them onto a 'cloud' solution on the internet. In that case, you'd want to run a webserver program on your PC, which would allow Freda to see the books on your PC's disk, via your local WiFi network. Actually, if you're prepared to run Calibre (and the Calibre content server) on your PC, that solution already works just fine. So the 'web server' approach is only for people who, for whatever reason, do not want to run Calibre on their PC.

You don't need an account to run Calibre. You just have to download and install the program.
I can't open a .epub which contains pictures. My epub file amounts to 88mb I tried to open it in my pc and it works. I had it downloaded to my freda (free edition) after I uploaded the ebook on a hosting server.
Is there another ebook reader that can read large file? Thanks!
I use Freda and Skydrive and it works great; it's slow at first but after it syncs it works okay. You have to tell skydrive to make it public or it will not show up.

88mb is going to be a bit of a stretch for any program on Windows Phone 7, since:
The file is compressed; uncompressed it will be larger
Programs on WP7 are prevented from using more than 100MB of memory
Freda doesn't actually need to hold all the images in memory at once, so that isn't a hard limit ... but it does suggest that memory usage might be the problem.
If you'd like to send me a link to the book (to [email protected]) I can run some tests and see if I can come up with any suggestions.
I am aware it's an old thread, but I am reviving it to let everyone know there is a way to get your books onto your WP7.

My problem was to copy a pdf-file to my phone and after some research, I figured out that the only way to do this, is to email me this file. I think this is pretty awkward and I found an easier way to do this.
If you have a dropbox-account just move the file to your dropbox-folder on your pc, then install a dropbox-client on your phone. now you can access every file that's in the dropbox-folder from your phone... problem solved
If you're new to dropbox, I would appreciate it if you use my refferal-link so that both of us get 250MB extra free space.

Why not just use your free Skydrive? That's what I do, then navigate to your Skydrive on your phone (pin the link to your start screen for ease) and click the file's icon and it will download to your phone.

I use dropbox too.
I think it easier because it has a Dropbox client for PC and WP7 (with app "Boxfiles for dropbox"), no need to create internet shortcut on my phone.
Why not Skydrive? Because it doesn't work half as well with either Windows or Windows Phone.
Unlike Dropbox, I can't just map my cloud storage to a folder easily on my PC.
And on my phone it doesn't let me download some files (funnily, Microsoft Office files). It shows presentations as web docs and there's no download link in default mobile view. I need to switch to desktop view which is unbearably slow.
This is plain ridiculous.

Back on topic please!
I have been trying to find out if windows 7 mobile is able to support my excel spreadsheet. Some retailers say yes no problem, others say my formulas are to complex, no one has been able to try it for me. How can I find out if my spreadsheet can be read, edited and it calculates properly before I buy?
Does the handset make any differance or is the win 7 the same on all? I haven't purchased a handset as of yet as I am still trying to find out what apps I can use on them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I very much want excel and word support, pdf reader is a must - creator would be a real plus. Gps would be real nice too.
Thus far I am leaning towards the htc surround, it seems to be one of the better options in my limited market.
before you buy the device,I have to let you know that,unless you are using microsoft sharepoint,if not the office application is kind of useless.
me as a student,I can't even transfer my lecture note to the device and revise it anywhere.
so,think twice before you buy a device
onenote is the only thing that you can sync to skydrive. so you can edit them on the web as well.
excel and word on the hand has to be emailed back and forth if you don't have sharepoint.
MS did demo a skydrive client at CES, which will be part of mango update, released in fall 2011, so that will be the resolve, but till then email is the only way to do it.
Thanks for the tips, I can see more research is in order.
You don't have to email word and excel documents in order to make them usable on a WP7 device. You can also choose to sync these items with either dropbox - which has several clients for WP7 - or software solutions like homepipe. Both work fine, either way.
But it's truely just a workaround until MS will provide full skydrive support. Which should have been part of WP7 from day one in the first place.
Transfering isn't a big deal, I would like to put the spreadsheet template on the handset, add in the data as needed and have excel do the calculations. Perhaps a quarterly backup to the computer would be fine. Will the handset excel sync with the desktop app, filling in the fields or would that have to be done manually?

I never really tried that, because I hardly use excel. But the way I described works with word, so why should it be any different with excel? Just save the file created on your desktop PC to your dropbox folder (or any other folder you can sync with your handset), then download and open it from the client app on your device.

Well, I just looked into my zune & LG Quantum transfer options, and I could not find any options regarding transferring any type of files that are not music, video or podcasts. EDIT: NM, miss understood your question. I don't believe the spreadsheets will sync. But using dropbox, this wouldn't be an issue, as you would always be opening the dropbox copy of the spreadsheet.
RE: seeing whether or not your excel spreadsheet will run properly, I am not sure how private/personal your spreadsheet is, but you could email it to a user here to test it and report back to you if it works.
Would the dropbox copy be the same as the computer copy? Would someone be willing to try the template for me to see if it will run and calculate properly? That is a great idea! The template is about 1.5 mb. If anyone is willing to try this for me please PM me, thanks.
i use Excel a lot on my windows phone by using a budget spreadsheet I whipped up on my computer. I know there are multitudes of budgets apps but why do that when you can auto calculate averages, sums, and present them graphically with a simple spread sheet?
Now at the moment, the only way to get Office docs (Word or Excel) on the phone is via emailing your self or as others suggested dropbox or file server. The downside is changes made on the phone isn't synced back to the source. You have to email the changes to yourself.
Microsoft has demoed Skydrive integration coming in the Fall update. Changes made then will be automatically synced like One note is now.
As for formulas, my formulas and graphs work and show up on the phone just fine! However I am not sure if more complicated ones work as I was unable to edit an excel timesheet from my job on my phone (says unable to open this file created from earlier office version). I am willing to test this template for you.
Feel free to PM it to me.
Also one way to get office documents on the phone iis utilizing skydrive instead of dropbox
1, I mapped my skydrive "My Documents" folder as a network drive on my Windows 7 PC
2. I save all my office documents there. I can edit them, delete them, rename them just as any other folder.
3. One the phone you can access skydrive via the browser and download your files without needing drop box or 3rd party solutions. The downside is being unable to upload them back!
4. Do maintenance, email your changed document and replace it on the desktop yourself.
Hope this helps.

2. HomeBrew PDF sender which access to Isolated Storage of Adobe's Reader ?
Thanks for info.
1. Yes of course but it's really hard and complex task. Also, you can't assign your viewer as a default PDF viewer.
2. No for regular MP apps (you can't access someone else sandbox), but very possible for interop-unlocked handset.

question 1:
Yes, but I think is really difficult.
To associate PDF extension with your app you have to change registry keys on device (HKCR\.pdf sends you to HKCR\PDFFile that contains the appId to use to open pdfs), but on unlocked device only

"You want" or "you want to write app"? If first - you may forget about it The only hope - if someone will port that project http://sourceforge.net/projects/clown/ to WP7 SL.
You can always replicate the existing adobe reader app, than by using reflector copy the code, than modify it according your needs.
The reading part is being done by some dll which you can use.
Now instead of rerouting the pdfs to a different folder just use the same app ID and overwrite the official app. Now all pdfs end up in your custom build pdf reader.
Good luck

or hoping that there is an usable user control in Adobe Reader's DLL
On unlocked devices the following could be done:
a homebrew app which syncs the isolated storage folder of the Adope Reader with the My Documents folder (manual sync and maybe a background task which syncs both folder in a predefined interval). This would give us the possibility to send .pdf´s via email or upload them to skydrive via the Office Hub.
Atm I copy my pdf´s with a filebrowser to the MyDocuments folder and all works fine but it would be nice to have an app which could make life easier.
I´m not able to write such an app but I know that it´s possible.

spavlin,
1. Do this apps allow to switch as be default PDF reader ?
2. Do this apps allow to send PDF files via email ?
If not both of them why do you put it here ?

Hi!
Just a sidenote:
Adobe Reader for WP7 sucks as it lacks the reflow option which is quite useful for reading documents on little displays. If someone starts to develop please keep in mind this function.
Regadrs,
Cina.

All those Marketplace apps are crap because they don´t replace the original pdf-reader.
Currently there is no app which can do what you want. The only solution is a homebrew app.

Yes, does somoone create homebrew pdf app which can:
1. Send Pdf via email
2. Be the default pdf app
Uhm, you could get the .xap of the original Adobe Reader app, and decompile it. Then you could add the functions you need to the officially app. It sould not be that complicated but some annoying work, I guess...
did you try the PDF Move app?
