Hi all,
I'm just hoping some you who are more familar with the trinity can give me a few pointers... to save me time and less confusion, thanks in advance and much appreciated.
I'm currently using the Australian version of Windows Mobile 6 on my trinity...
but i'm NOT sure how to get GPS running (if it's is possible), please tell how to set it up and what software etc, i require. (I'll be using the GPS in Australia)
and also in terms of syncing... after updating my trinity from mobile 5 to 6, do i need a new version of active Sync, because i'm having trouble sync now...
Thank you all~~~ I'm hoping there are nice and helpfully people around

I think you meant to write "but i'm NOT sure how to get GPS running".
If so, you do not need to install any software. GPS works. But without a software program that actually uses GPS, GPS itself is quite useless. So install TomTom 6 (if you don't have it let me know, I'll post it), follow the instructions and your GPS will work. Headsup, first fix will take some minutes, so be patient.
and also in terms of syncing... after updating my trinity from mobile 5 to 6, do i need a new version of active Sync, because i'm having trouble sync now...

You need ActiveSync 4.5.

http://www.tomtom.com is the place to create an account and download a paid map, but you can use Route 66 too.
Let we start with Google Maps, that's free of charge and easy setup. I've attached the file.
ActiveSync (XP or earlier) is available at Microsoft, http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista) at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx

You can download Tomtom 6.03 from rapidshare:
http://rapidshare.com/files/47514040/1.bin
http://rapidshare.com/files/47519726/1.b01
http://rapidshare.com/files/47523589/1.b02
Just rename the files:
1.bin > 1.zip
1.b01 > 1.z01
1.b02 > 1.z02
Upzip the file and copy the content from the zipfile to the root of your SD. Use File Explorer to navigate to the root of your SD card and tap on Start.exe from and TT will install itself.
Arilexed: Thanks for your Tomtom 6 links, much appreciated once again...
For those familiar with google maps and gps settings.... when i use google maps on my trinity it keeps saying seeking GPs satellites (0)... but it never finds anything....
is there something i need to do with the setting??
How about tomtom 6 do i need to change the gps setting in order to make it work?
I'm hoping someone can help me out~~~
Thanks in advance~
Doesn't GoogleMaps require you to have a constant internet connection to be able to use?
yes, i believe you are right prawnz....
piitaa, ensure you are outside, away from tall buildings and built-up areas. a first-time lock can often take 10-15 minutes to obtain.

no problem, glad to be of service. could you confirm if the download and installation has worked for you?
Hi dos anyone have this problem? I've tried installing WM6 official OZ ROM but finds that the in build memory is smaller. and since TomTom needs to be installed in the phone inbuild memory I have only small amount left to install other stuff. Plus how come there is no office in the official ROM.
hello, don't have the answer to your question but I think you would have more chance in getting a answer if you started a new thread for this. just a thought...
TomTom - making more room
Hi - you can just move the folder "Navigator" from the program files out to the Storage Card - just correct any shortcuts to point to the new location. It works fine and frees up that much space on the device...
right so i have some questions that i hope some of you may be able to answer if possible
1. i have both GoogleMaps and TomTom installed, i use my wireless and can use GoogleMaps right away no problem but TomTom just doesnt want to load - i can never seem to get a good GPS signal is there anything else i can do to make it better? i have WIFI on and using home network but i get nothing
2. i have Mobile Shell 3 installed and as i said i love it but, i have seen better options for dialers out that and i installed Dusk Default and when i press the answer key i get the view that i expect but when i press contacts on the Mobile Shell front screen i go to the mobile shell version and when i get incoming calls i get the mobile shell version is there a way to change this too the Dusk Default version?
2.a are there any ROMS that have the same lifestyle interface as Mobile Shell 3 - i know they copied it from the google phones but has any Rom makers copied it as im loving the one that comes with Mobile Shell, its just with them forcing you to use all aspects of Mobile Shell that annoy me as some areas arent as good as some apps / roms out there and maybe i would consider changing to a different rom that had this feature and allow the use of different apps for certain things like dialers
3. now this sounds funny but i have trouble answering calls, its not that they dont get through or anything its the slide option to answer it i just cant seem to get it i try answering but it hangs up is there a way to change this? i know about the hardware button for it but i forget about that as i pay too much attention to the screen
4. are there any games out there that are as good as Xtrakt as i am loving it, shame only 10 levels hope they would release some packs or something for it but i have searched and searched but havent found any that are anywhere near as good as this - got any ideas?
1. TomTom is not data related: go out home and switch on TomTom without WiFi
2. Or a MS3 option to switch to default dialer exist or You must unistall MS3 but I don't knoe well MS3 (I use Manila)
2.a MS3 isn't free so no ROMs include it
3. Intall HDTweaks 0.54 and set option "dialer skin" to "Default Windows Mobile"
4. I can't help you you could search with Google
D'rath
thats what i thought for TomTom but i can never get a signal for it, even when outside is there a way to boost the performance to get a better signal? as for the HDTweak thing, i have that but cant find the dialer option where exactly is it?

so i need to update it then, how do i do that? is it safe?
have you configured your tomtom software to find the correct com port for the built in gps? google maps does it automatically(windows managed) tomtom doesn't
Had my HD for 6 months and have now just changed the dialer to WM and its so much better!!! Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm a new commer in windows mobile developpement, and I already have a probleme.
I would like to code an application wich automatically switch my phone profile, using my current location (not the GPS, but the cellID).
But I can't find a way to SET the profile (currently i can only get it) or for exemple SET the volume to a certain level.
Thanks for your help.
Blinx
Hello,
you can use this : MSDN
Or this as DLL
Hope i can help you...
Thx it's really helpful !! but I'de like to set the volume to a certain level too.
But I can't find this feature out.
How could I do that ?
Thanks.
My first mobile application that I post here:
The tool prevent your data connection(GPRS) to start up.
It lists all GPRS connections, and allows you to disable them so that they won’t be used.
The tool is especially useful when going to another country then the data connection cost a lot during the roaming.
This application have the same functionality of the famous MoDaCo Nodata but with Manila touch screen interface, without nagging popups and the option to stop active data connections.
The application requires .Net 3.5 that you can download from Microsoft. or if you want only the cab file, search the net for the NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab file.
You can download it from: http://redfrogfish.com/products/data-controller/
Planning to add the option to turn off active data connection from the same screen in the next version, so won't need to do it manually.
Current version: 1.0.2.1
Changes:
Updated version: 1.0.2.1: Added few menu options
Updated version: 1.0.2.0: bugs fix
Updated version: 1.0.1.9: GUI fix
Updated version: 1.0.1.8: Check .net version bug fix.
Updated version: 1.0.1.7: GUI fix
Updated version: 1.0.1.6: Small bug fix and some GUI improvements.
Updated version: 1.0.1.5: Reduced application size and some GUI improvements.
Updated version: 1.0.1.3: Option to close all open data connection from the application screen
The application is using the great SliderList control made by Obelix_A
Beer is always welcome
Good apps! Tnx.
Can you add qvga sliderbutton?
SIZE/2
looks very good - I will use it...
If you know about data connections and how to control them - can you also give it an option to stop data connection on roaming (automatically)?
I have an app "NoDataInRoaming" that does it and runs in background. But if you integrate it in our app the users only need one app for all...
regards
Obelix

Good Idea, I look into it
Next version in few days will have the option to stop the active data connections as well so the user won't need to do it in the conn manager.

hello to everyone here in xda
I just got my sprint tp2 three weeks ago because i needed a winmo cellphone to install chinese dictionary/1,500mah battery/hardware keyboard/ and something different than samsung, (last phone was samsung innov8)
I've modded my phone little by little by lurking, but there's some annoying issues that i've been trying to solve by searching the internet and xda forums but couldn't find it, like:
(using today's screen)
-making the contacts remember the setting "filter by Device Contacts",
it always display "all contacts" <--- Big headache...
-that same contact's menu uses big fonts, i've changed the fonts to small text, but still couldn't make it smaller (attached file)
-adding and removing things on windows today screen(attached file)
-any good converter to change money, mass, temperature....
I've changed rom, but the same problem were still on the original sprint 6.5 rom, software information are:
OS version: 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
Manilla: 2.5.2010121225.0
ROM : Mr.X ROM 2.5
Rom date 04/10/10
Radio version 2.32.00WF
thanks !

I can't really help with the other issues, but I can easily recommend uConvert as the best measurement converter available for the TP2. There's a basic version available for free (cab is attached below), but for $.99 you can purchase the full version which just unlocks some more types of measurements and units.
More details: http://uconvert.us/
thanks.. ! i wonder if... nobody have this problem on their sprint tp2 or they just use sim contacts???
