Hi all,
At least we know that the MBW-100 watches could not be paired with a Windows Mobile device. Perhaps the new MBW-150 can, does anybody known this?

yeah because its so far for me to get my phone out of my pocket instead of using my watch to control my phone and all.
sorta makes you wonder why the marketing department for some of these companies even bothers getting out of bed some days.
We could leave our phones at home because it's a unpersonal piece of electronical junk to talk into instead Face2Face and take the effort to look eachtoher up IRL...

If you don't like it don't buy it. I don't see why you have to be a douche though. I thought you could have your watch vibe if you got a call. Most of the time when my phone is on vibe, I never feel it.

yeah well if the watch did something cool like open the door to the garage that would be cool, but control my phone media player seriously i can do that now but reaching into my pocket or using the buttons on a ad2p headset like i do now.
think of all that R&D that has been wasted creating this thing, they could have put it to better use to assist the mobile computing world.
I have to say you're wrong... this is the ultimate accessory.
I have a Universal, and I want to get an Athena, and by any standards these are PDAs with phone functionality. They're big, and I like that, but it can be annoying to have to get out "the brick" and open it up just to see who's calling.
This way, I can keep the phone in my pocket on silent, wear my A2DP/AVRCP headset and wear the watch. I can control the music via either my headset of watch, plus is someone calls I can see who it is by just glancing at my vibrating watch.
And the proximity alert is just a bonus... I often get to my front door before remembering that I left the phone in the PC dock.
Or... A2DP from my phone in it's dock on my desk to my bluetooth speakers. I'm chilling on the sofa using my watch to skip tracks etc.
This is all about ubiquitous computing, and in my opinion this is a genius product. So much so that I have actually been researching buying a Sony Ericcson phone! That's how good this product is.
If you don't like the product then don't buy it, simple as that, but it's not helpful to fill up a genuine post on finding if we can get this to work with our favourite phones with negative comments.

Moron... can't you find somewhere better to hang out than a developer thread FOR PHONES. If you wanna complain about phones, why don't you find the site with a bulletin board all about how much phones suck
All I'm saying is... you came to the wrong place, because most people here have a passion about making their phones better. It's like going to an Apple forum and saying that iPods suck and everyone should get a Zune

I got the watch as a present but couldn't get it to work.
Is there a chance I will somewhen or should I return the watch, before I run out of time to do so?
WM seems to not accept AVRCP commands unless they origin from an audio device, probably an A2DP device, eg. a bluetooth headset.
hello
sorry for my english
is possible to pacht bluetooth TyTn II for AVRCP ??? for my watch mbw-150 ???????????
You don't have to patch anything. AVRCP works with the TyTN as with any other WM6 device. What I found out: once the connection between the watch and the device is established, the watch basically could exchange commands with the device, there is just no client on the device receiving and answering the watches connection attempts.
There is a guy writing a program for it. By now he can send messages to the watches screen, he can make the watch vibrate and on the device side all the commands the watch sends are being recognized. But by now the program only displays the communication but doesn't act yet.
Stay tuned...

So it's not possible yet?
Why can't Microsoft just make WM6 with better BT support! Would it work better if we installed a different stack?
installing another stack wouldn't help. it's not a problem of the stack, the stack accepts the connection and the communication only uses the serial port protocol, which is supported in (for example) the microsoft stack. the problem is the implementation of the stuff the watch uses to communicate with the pda/phone.
the guy seems to be working on the software and I guess he's not far from finishing his tool.
Hello Schaggo
Finally, at the bottom of page 1 I found your reply "Got it as a present and it doesn't work" so I thought, well here is the answer, also this MBW-150 watch will not work with WM devices.
Turning to page 2, shaking after the first letters "Guy developing WM client" "perhaps allmost finished" aaargggh.... Who is this guy? He needs lot's of beers and gifts!..
Just like WhiteMonkey I think I can appreciate the features this watch can offer. And if the "mystery guy" is writing the client himself he probeley will add New E-Mail alerts aswell!
Can you reveal your source? Or does this 'mystery guy' have a blog/forum where he posts his findings?
Best Regards, Tom from Netherlands
Im on my pda so I don't have the link at hand right now. but when I'll be back at my laptop I'll post the link in here so you can track the topic yourself. you can find it at the pocketgeek forums. stay tuned I'll post the link later this afternoon my local time.

Hi Everyone,
I'm a software/hardware student in college and I thought I'd post my idea here and get answers/feedback.
I would like to write/code an application to use my cell phone to output white noise and jam other cell devices (basically jam 850MHz,1900MHz) in my vicinity. I have a Sprint HTC Touch pro2 and have SIM, Radio, and Hard-SPL unlocked it.
Programming this would require a lot, so I'll just ask the community the basic question: Is this possible? How easy would it be to write it?
Any feedback and answers would be great. I'm sure this is an open/shut case and it will make me look completely foolish if it's not possible, but positive reasoning is appreciated.
Thanks.

Thankfully, you can't. Why would you wanna do that anyways? There's a lot of bugs to be fixed and apps to be written, why don't you use your 'skils' in that direction.
No offense, but I'd hate to be within your area and need to make a 911 call only to have my signal jammed.
As the person above me posted, use your talents to help move forward some things that MS has let stagnate. Use your talents to write an app that will send an amber alert at the touch of a button. Your skills can be used to create a program for people like me, with a medical history, and all I would need to do is push a button and a In Trouble alert would go out to a pre-set group of people in the event that I am in anaphyllactic shock and cannot breathe...I'd LOVE to have something like that on my phone.
The point is, just because you may be able to do something doesn't mean you should. Lets say you did somehow create that program and someone died because of you and your program...yes that is probably an extreme case, but wouldn't it be better to use your talents to HELP.
This would be highly illegal to do first of all (at least in the US). Also you'd need a much more powerful transmitter, afterall it's your phone versus a dedicated cellular tower. I'm going to guess that sending enough current through your phone to output that much noise would absolutely fry the electronics, if not at least destroy the battery.
Here in the US, there happen to be federal laws against doing exactly that.
"Willful interference with the lawful transmission of a radio signal", I believe.
I would love to see this idea implemented in a movie theater!

So when the theater catches fire nobody can call for help?
Yes, yes, we all understand that idiots who can't silence their phones and stay off them in inappropriate settings are infuriating. This is still a terrible idea.
Let's say I'm on-call, which in my case is 1/4 of my life. I decide to risk going to the movies, and set my phone to vibrate in case the hospital needs to reach me. They send a text message, so I can discreetly pop out in case I'm needed - it's no different from someone who wants more popcorn or needs to use the toilet. Wow! I make it through an entire movie without being interrupted, or so I think until I get to the car and a flood of messages and missed calls suddenly appears on my phone.
Unfortunately, I had no way of knowing some moron had illegally blocked cellular signals and sat through a movie while your mom was dying in the ER. Are you going to cut me much slack for not having responded to 114 messages while the ER was desperately trying to get in touch with me?
Didn't think so.
Thanks to everyone for the replies, regardless if it's possible or not. I did not mean to start a moral war or argument. All moralities and emergency-call situations set aside, it would still be fun to make IMO.
I've been looking online, and if you wanted to properly jam all cell signals, you'd have to jam a range (824MHz - 894MHz and 1850MHz -1990MHz have to ALL be white-noised to accommodate for duplex cellular communications on all US voice uplink and downlink frequency signals). I think that with the range it would have, I would notice an emergency occurring close enough to be able to switch it off for people to make emergency calls.
Yes, cell phone jamming is illegal to use in the US, but is not illegal to possess (like illegal narcotics). I looked online, and the actual legal violation you would be charged for is a property-theft-related charge, since carriers purchase frequency bands as property for use in locations they pay for, and you'd be shown as stealing their property. I'll have to read the . I'd mostly be using the app to screw with friends (or my girlfriend who "absolutely HAS to take this call" that's completely unimportant and ruins our dates). I would make it easy to turn on and easy to turn off.
On the other hand, an emergency SOS application to ICE (In Case of Emergency) friends would be an easy application to write. In fact, in India, they have developed a cell-phone jammer that will intercept all emergency calls and texts (outgoing and incoming) and allow them to go through.
I just think of the idea as a fun mod to develop. Is there any professional mobile programmers out there that support my cause?
i actually own a cell phone jammer, and trust me, the thing sucks more power then a phone could deliver and it can get insanely hot. I do see both sides of this argument though. It is really funny to screw with your friends. Especially when you walk into an at&t store and laugh at all the iphones saying "no service" , and then all the employees stare at you because your the only one in there and all their phones say no service. But when i bought mine, i did take into consideration that people do need to be reached by phone for emergencies. that's why when i use mine, i only use it when i'm in someones house and know that there is nothing that could go wrong emergency wise, or if I'm in public, i will only use it if someone is on there phone talking pointlessly or loudly. BUT, i only leave it on until there phone call is disconnected and then shut it off. I also have to agree with Toleraen, your phone isn't going to be able push out and transmit that much noise.
There are already such devices in existance. They are illegal in the US. One of the schools around here wanted to impliment one to keep students from using cell phones on the premisis. The FCC said no way, so they just check cells at the door now, along with other highly dangerous devices like toothbrushes and Q-Tips that can do bodily harm as well as distract from class room attention spans.
Emergency calls can still be made from land lines. If you are an on call ER physician, why are you at the movies while my mom is dying? It would seem that your skills would be much more valuable at an actual ER while you are on call.
Personally, I would rather go with the much more legal HREF gun which shoots a directional EMF pulse that just smokes the teenie bopper's bedazzled phone where it sits...
These jammers are not illegal in every country btw. Our Grand Opera Theater (free translation from greek lol) has that implemented in its rooms. So do many universities.
I personally i'm kinda on the against side, however it could be usefull in the above mentioned cases. Still I would like to strangle the person who "just happened to decide i should stop MY call on MY phone", but i have to admit it could be fun being on the other side of the situation

"on call" means they can call you if needed, it's not the same thing as being on duty. Medical facilities often have a staff capable of handling normal volume as well as x# of people on call in case volume rises above normal.
I've worked in a few "sensitive" areas in my life and there were what they called "bafflers" that would block cellphone transmissions. These were apparently well hidden away and not easy to know what they even were but yup, within the radius of where I was, no cellphone unless you had a 'special' cellphone that could work within a certain (read monitored) bandwidth of cell ranges.

You know how when you're on a long phone call the phone/battery start to heat up? That's you transmitting on a single channel. There are several hundred channels in that frequency range that you'd need to transmit, at a strength greater than the cell tower.
I don't think it's a matter of the software being capable (although you'd have to rebuild the radio firmware I would imagine), it's a matter of the hardware being capable. Discharging the battery that fast would be extremely dangerous and likely result in failure and/or burnination.
I think this poor guys request is gettin a bit blown out of proportion. No harm was intended, just a fun little prank. I understand an extreme case could happen where "your mother" would be in dire need of medical assistance and that ends up killing them. But jeeze, I'm pretty sure all the guy is trying to do is have a little fun with his friends. Funny idea but yea, might not be a very smart thing to do...

Here's an exercise to test this hypothesis: phone someone whose exact location you don't know using a landline. Did it work? If so, wait about 10 hours and try again. My prediction is that, unless that person remains next to a wired phone at all times, sooner or later this will fail. Are they going to let me drag a landline phone (with a REALLY long cord) into the movie theater with me?

1) How am I supposed to know ahead of time when your mom is planning to die?
2) I'm a specialist. There are two in my specialty in our area. That means I either live in the ER all the time or go about my life and live with interruptions.
Do you actually believe doctors sit around waiting 24/7 for people to show up? To clarify, Emergency Department physicians aren't typically ever on-call at all. They work scheduled shifts and are usually occupied the entire time. In large tertiary ER's, some specialists (orthopedics, general surgery, psychiatry, pediatrics, e.g.) may be scheduled for shifts. Most specialties don't have enough people to waste them sitting around in the ER, so they're on-call. You're not going to find a neurosurgeon, dermatologist, ophthalmologist, endocrinologist, etc. twiddling her thumbs in the break room. Many specialists cover several ER's in an area. At which one should they hang out if they were to decide to do Sudoku while waiting for something to happen?
If I were in an area with 29 others in my field with whom I could rotate call, I'd certainly hang around the house and not go to movies or whatever. That's not the case, and I'm on the other end of the beeper a great deal of the time. Since I'm on-call for a week at a time, waiting until tomorrow is not the simple solution it might seem. I have a family and a life to live. Most of my sleeping, eating, grocery shopping, and movie-watching gets done on-call. (In case you're curious, no I don't get paid in any way for being on-call but am legally required to be. It's rare that I get paid anything when I race to the ER and spend my kid's birthday tending to someone.)
Hey, you asked. Did you really not get the point that there are legitimate reasons why blocking cellular signals, even in movie theaters and restaurants, is a bad idea? I used what's called "an example" to illustrate a point about unintended consequences. In this particular case, I used a real-life example from my own experience. It shouldn't be that difficult to imagine a fairly different example that makes the same point.
If you want to pick nits, we can do that all day. I still contend that blocking cellular signals, especially if this is unknown to people in that area, is a really terrible idea.

I agree in both aspects. One inspiration is the annoyance with my girlfriend's cell phone etiquette. She has a friend that calls her all the time. While were hanging out, on dates, etc... and my girlfriend always picks up and they chat chat chat... annoying. Another reason is the experience. I'm a software student at a tech school and the learning gained from it would be amazing (which, btw is the reason I haven't replied in a few days... sorry, finals week).
Agreeing with a few others, the phone does not seem to be capable of doing this safely, and for very long. Even if it were a quick flip-on, close-down process, it would be very hard to write as a mod within windows. I would have to gain control of the radio from Windows, and find the drivers and commands to send signals out to the radio to broadcast, which would not be that powerful, maybe not even powerful enough to even cut an entire signal... maybe drag down or make difficult. If not possible to make within windows, it would have to be an OS or bootable environment (meaning, most likely, it would be changed to only have that function, no Windows) :-(
I've seen various projects of hardware/software students making these devices, such as the Wave Bubble project (google it, it's cool).
OK, another question. Has anyone worked with a cheap jammer that works on both US frequencies or has designed hardware to do it? Is there a place where someone could point me to solder and make an easy and powerful jammer (for information purposes, of course)?

Then you must be a freshmen, otherwise if you'd actually taken any electrical engineering classes at all you'd realize the phone cannot function in this way. How do you think it is possible for the transmitter, which is filtered to transmit at a very narrow frequency band so it won't interfere with all the other calls going on in the adjoining channels, can be made to transmit simultaneously across a frequency spectrum of 210 Mhz!?!? There are so many physical impossibilities to what you're wanting to do that it's pointless to even address them all.
I'll just say that you're trying to do is synonymous to taking a single garden hose and its little stream of water, and modifying it to somehow make rain all over a whole town, just because it would be fun to do.

On my first post i said that i bought a jammer. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4355 this is the one that i bought and it's at half the price of what i paid, $26 for a cellphone jammer that operates on both GSM and CDMA frequencies is insane, they usually go for at least $200 for 1 frequency. it does fell kind of fragile, but i've had mine for over a year now and it still works great, range is good, and battery life is about 5 hours long. the only downside is it can get really hot if its on for about an hour. and you will click the button on accident when its in your pants, so you will know if its on by you having no service, or if your pants are a blaze. Comes with a wall charger and car charger. I like to jam peoples cell phones when there talking on the phone in there car, it's to funny and they shouldn't be doing it anyways.
i would be happy if one of you genuises would fix wm6.5 so that i dont have to reboot 45 times a day because of it getting so slow i cant even use it.

Tasker can record a call, but it costs about $6. Well worth it if you want to do other tasks too. You can automate pretty much anything on your phone. It can be a little overwhelming at first because it's so customizable. It's free for a week if you just want to try it out.
Also be aware there may be laws in your state against recording a conversation.

It can do almost anything you can imagine. This is the app that can transform into a jet and take you to an island. I kid you not. Get it.
For example, I just made a profile that tells my phone to automatically mute when I'm in class based on my schedule. And when I plug in my car charger I set tasker to automatically set incoming calls to speakerphone, max the display brightness, start my speedometer app, read all incoming texts out loud, and turn off the display timeout. Then when I unplug the car charger it all goes back to normal without a button pushed. And it has the bigger geebee's.

ZWhat>>> ??? lolz,
Hi has anybody thought about creating a program to allow video ringtones?
Not going to leave you hanging alone
I always wondered that I remember when camera phones were being blasted out a friend of mine had a Sprint Sanyo that had video ringtone that was the only phone I have seen do that. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Would be cool though to see a friend or someone on a video ringer moving and shaking.
yeah, it looks like the iPhone can do it. Hopefully WP7 will make it happen too..

AFAIK, MS don't provide (and I'm afraid will never provide) any low level phone API. So, the only hope is "freedom ROMs" from DFT...
why do you need video ringtones?
its absolutly nonsense. If someone calls me, my smartphone is in my pocket or lies somewhere on a table. The sound notification is enough, to know that somebody calls me. And it takes maybe 2 seconds to answer a call, so why watch 2 secs of a video

First off, I'm not sure what's up your ass, but the word "need" was never used.
I thought it would he cool to have...no more to it!!!
2nd - Just because you don't want something doesn't make it nonsense. I'm quite sure there's some programs you would like to have that someone else has no desire for.
If you don't want something or agree w/ it, don't read the post, but please.....realize the world doesn't revolve around your opinion and just keep the uneeded ones to yourself..
Thanks

video ringtones work on iPhone because "MobileSubstrate" is working as a plugin to the springboard. It will not be possible to do anything like this on windows phone in the near future. hopes this answers your idea...

Well again...just because you don't want it doesn't make it nonsense...you need to get out of that bubble you live in and realize there's so much more than YOU on this planet...

Thank you, this does help me understand my idea and makes a lot more sense than your previous answer.
Maybe sometime down the road it will be possible..
It is very possible and I'll love to have it, seem like it would be a major battery leach though

I dunno... 33 feet is kinda limiting... I'm not allowed my phone during work either and 33 feet isn't even enough to get outta my office and into the hallway lol, I could never see myself spending the money on something so trite, however; for others I can see how the application dictates it would be a worthwhile investment, sounds kewl to me nonetheless!
sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
This is just my opinion and not my suggestion. I'm a little anti authority kind of person. That being said, regardless if I had the watch or not, I would keep my phone in my pocket but with all sounds turned off and probably vibrate turned off too. If it vibrated when you were near someone, and they heard it, they might tell on you. I would not keep my phone in a locker because it could be stolen. I will not leave it at home obviously. I will not leave it in the car because of the extreme heat and possibility of theft. I would only check my phone if I was in a locked bathroom or stall or in my car. I wouldn't risk it anywhere else that there were people around. If I did get caught and given the choice of the phone or the job, I'd not back down. I would say that I would need it on me in case of a local or personal or family emergency. A job is probably saying that because a few people would blatently screw around or talk on their phones and not work. That doesn't mean you run to the bathroom every five minutes to check your phone or hold a text conversation with someone either.

In many cases, like mine, it's nothing to do with productivity, we are not allowed phones on site, period. Or radios. Or USB sticks. Or...
I have worked without access to my mobile for the last 16 years and never missed anything important, we have proper phones at work if there is an emergency...
I would think anyone willing to risk their job for the sake of having a phone in their pocket should maybe reassess their priorities a little, especially in the current econmomic climate.
