Sounds like you might need to install the eMbedded Visual Basic Runtime for Pocket PC 2003!
eMbedded Visual Basic Runtime for Pocket PC 2003 can be found at;
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/downloads/developer/evb.mspx
As far as the list goes one was started here on this forum some months ago, so trying doing a search on the subject.
HTH

It would have been handy to have a compatability settings like xp where you can choose to run a program under 95 compatability for example.

Qman
thanks but i have the source of that hp48 emu prog and it being c++ makes me think that more then vb dll's will be required to solved
if only i had the embeddet visual studio for 2003 i could try and find a fix because from what i can read on the site of that hp48 last time they did any work were like 2001 or something

I want to make programs for HTC Touch Pro (WM 6.1)

Hey guys,
I am a programmer at heart and have developed in many different languages(C,C++,Java,PHP,ASP...). I want to begin developing applications for the Touch Pro (WM 6.1) but I have no idea where to start. My biggest fear is downloading the WM 6.1 emulator messing around with it for weeks only to find out that's not what I should have been using. Can anyone give me some pointers as to where I should start? Are there any tutorials out there for programming for this phone?
I also noticed that the WM 6.1 emulator didn't support the 480x640 resolution that the HTC Touch Pro uses...
Thanks!

Do you know of an emulator for the HTC Touch Pro? I downloaded a program that I know works, and was able to compile and run it on my phone but when I tried to run it with the emulator it was missing the HTCSensorSDK.dll file... something fairly new i presume. I tried default emulator and the Windows Mobile 6 Professional VGA emulator but I was wondering if there was one available for this phone yet.
I want to know the same thing
If/when you find an answer to this I would love to hear about it or see a post on it. Thanks.
There's no such thing as a software-only emulator for the Raphael's hardware, that would be incredibly complex to create for such a task
What the developers use is called a "Board Support Package" - it basically contains all the raphaels hardware, in a PCI card that gets installed in a slot in the computer.. that way all the drivers, etc can be loaded and everything can be tested as it would be on the phone itself.
There's pretty much not a chance in heck of you getting one of those (although if you do, send one my way, I would love to have one )
The emulators are useful for testing generic software that does not tie into any of the features that require raphael hardware. There should also be emulator images to support all resolutions (qvga square, qvga, vga, not sure about wvga/wqvga)
And, here's the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...52-f89e-4354-84ce-5d19c204498a&displaylang=en
Looks like it does in fact come with wqvga and wvga emulators
Note that you can use an emulator kitchen to add SOME of the htc stuff to the ROM image, but none of the drivers that support the htc hardware will function.

emBedded Visual Basic Runtime for WM 6.1

Hey
I am new at this board but I hope that you can give me an answer to my problem. I´d like to run "Max Tilbergs A Viking Saga" (For those who´ve never heard about it: It´s a game for PPc )
The Installation is no problem but when i try to start it there came a window and say that it is important to install the "emBedded Visual Basic Runtime" for this prog. So i googled for this but i found only a version for windows 2003 of this programm. I tried to install this version - nothing changed.
Maybe someone could help me with this little problem .
MfG
Tobi
P.S.: sorry for my bad english
Hi,
the file from typhur worked for me (but not on storage card). "A Viking Saga" works now
Embedded Visual Basic on WM5?

embedded vb 3 was the last vb without being vb.net which don't use vb runtimes
but old 2003 vb runtimes should work ok under later devices

How do I use Windows Mobile apps on a Windows CE 6.0 device?

I just bought a Windows CE 6.0 device called the A81 MID that has the following specs
7 inch 800x480 lcd screen
Arm Cortex A8 600mhz
256mb ram
WinCE 6.0
I bought this thinking since i can use alot of wince apps on WM phones it would work the other way around too
Im trying to install Skyfire and Opera on the device because IE sucks on this device.
Every time I try to install a .cab ile I get the error "not a valid windows ce setup file"
Whats strange is that a lot of programs i have that is designed to run on WinCE won't open on 6.0 either
one example was FinalBurn CE .14, nothing happens when i open the .exe
Even the classic CAB installer to manage cabs from self destructing when installing fails to open and gives me the error "not a valid windows CE application"
Is this problem unique to this device or to WinCE 6.0?
The CAB files include some information saying on which platform and/or version of the OS it can be installed. IMO this is the only issue that prevents the application to be installed on your notebook, and this will also result in the error message you wrote. It's the same message that appears for instance when you try to install an application that requires WM 6 on a PPC 2003 device.
Since WM is based on Windows CE it's usually no problem running WM applications on Windows CE, unless you don't access any telephony APIs or any other similar stuff explicitly available only on the WM platforms.
So you can just go ahead and extract the files and registry settings from the CAB and install them manually, or re-create the CAB with different version requirements. If it doesn't work then I dare to say it's 100% the reason that some special WM APIs are used.
I managed to run some WM application on a Windows CE emulator. They are actually working fine, though the GUI doesn't look very good because they are optimized for Mobile phone screens and not adapted to the Windows CE "Desktop" OS.
I also have a Windows CE notebook and I'm planing on porting Nitrogen to it. If I have the time. Some day. Eventually. Yes.
Edit: problem of some WinCE applications not running on your machine might be that they are designed for WinCE 5. WinCE 6 has a re-designed kernel and some APIs are obsolete.... It's the same problem that will happen when we'll be switching from WM 6 to WM 7.
any ideas on how i can extract the registry and files? ive tried a couple of cab extractor and they all end up giving files with weird names and extensions such as skyfir34580.001 and other rubbish like that. Winrar gives me even worst filenames. is there any kind of tutorial you can point me too? i have no programing skills so porting would be way over my head.
have you had anyluck installing skyfire 1.5 or opera 10 on a wince device? also have you ever gotten finalburn to run on your wince devices?
search for MSCEInfEn
to create a new CAB look at this:

thx for the explication RAMMANN --
i plan to buy a windows ce '7" mini netbook' and i want to use all WM6/6 progs from PPC (if hardware supports it, of course)

Emulating MS Mobile on HTC HD2

A n00b question..
ENVIRONMENT
Visual Studio 2008 C++
MS Mobile Pro SDK
MS Mobile OS 6.x
I want to add the HTC HD2 to the Microsoft Device emulator.
I got Josh's .NBH file and tried to convert it to a .BIN, but the resulting file could not be read by the emulator.
Is there someplace I can find the .BIN (preferably with the skin (.XML and .PNG/.BMP files))??
Thanks so much.
As far as I know, there is no way to emulate a device rom using the MS Windows Mobile emulator.
Oh, thank you, Steven; that is what I have read online, but I was hoping that it was not true. :/
Could someone be so kind as to point me to emulation alternatives, preferably accompanying MS Visual Studio?
Yesterday I basically found what I needed with the MS Mobile 6.5 SDK (includes WVGA).

[Q] How to create symbian kerenel and run it on pocket PC

We gather Symbian for pocket PC, as initial codes symbian already are but we not know how to create a kernel and to start it on pocket PC
If we can run kernel , big problems with GUI won't be as already there are programs for editing GUI and all other
But there will be problems with drivers

no offence mate but whats this got to do with WP7?
and what happed to the 10 post do-da thingy before folk can post new threads?
Symbian sucks , dont see the point of running it on htc hd2
234
Yes to hd 2, he's what, and unnecessary but it is needed on the weaker PocketPCs such as symbian you can play good games, even on a processor with 434MHz
I am puzzled.
We have Android, Win Mobile 6.5, WP7, Meego in early stages and Ubuntu all running off our HD2. Why would you want to go backwards and ask for Symbian.
For me, it is an old operating system which is outdated. For sure when it first came out, Nokia were the kings in the phone market but now, it is way down the pecking order now.
Some advice.....go and buy at Nokia 5800 for £60, there are plenty around and very cheap.
