Upon my fellow blogger Tim Hillebrand’s report and because I’ll need to quickly enter a lot of info at MWC (and I don’t want to lug around my desktop replacement and, therefore, pretty heavy IBM Thinkpad a31p just for inputting text), I’ve installed the latest StowAway / iGo Bluetooth drivers on all my mobile devices (even non-Windows Mobile ones) to find out whether the drivers available HERE are (still) compatible with the latest operating system / firmware versions. I’ve found out the following:
Windows Mobile
Pocket PC’s (a.k.a. WM6 Classic / Professional):
HP iPAQ hx4700 (WM5 AKU 3.5.2; selecting & using the Widcomm driver, NOT the MS one); HTC Universal (WM6), Dell Axim x51v (WM5 official A12 (AKU 2.3) ROM with the MS BT stack), HTC Wizard (mfrazzz’ XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL) and the WM2003 HP iPAQ 2210: all work OK with the factory, default driver.
(Note that, as far as mfrazzz’ XDA Mobile 6 releases are concerned, version 3 was a no-go at all: it didn’t even try to connect. Pressing the Disable built-in HID support doesn’t help at all – unlike with all my other test devices or the same Wizard running Release 5.)
Smartphones (a.k.a. WM6 Standard)
HTC Vox / s710 (factory WM6 Smartphone ROM); no native driver; therefore, I tested it with the s620 / Excalibur / MteoR driver (they’re the same – actually, it seems ALL HTC Smartphones have the same drivers, unlike with WM5 and pre-WM5 Pocket PC’s): OK
HTC Oxygen / s310 with the above MS SP drivers (no native driver): the config app doesn’t even load (“Keyboard driver not functioning!”); then, after closing it, I started to get system errors about the keyboard driver DLL not responding.
Blackberry:
BB 8800 (4.2.1.101 / 2.3.0.80, T-Mobile): Works OK; program invocation hotkeys also work as expected.
Palm OS:
Palm T3: Works OK, albeit some of the program invocation shortcuts (apart from the most basic calendar/ contacts / inbox) take you to some other program, not the default one (unlike with the WM or the BB version). Otherwise, it’s OK.
Symbian:
Nokia N95 (firmware version v20): No native N95 (or any new – the latest ones are dated from 03/2007; the Palm / WinMo / BB drivers have been released a bit later; for example, the BB one in 07/2007) drivers from ThinkOutside; however, the N92 driver works just great on the N95. All the shortcuts work (as opposed to the built-in drivers). Note that the green Fn + Backspace terminates the connection (unlike on WinMo), which, then, must be re-enabled by just re-invoking the wireless keyboard applet. Also note that, unlike with Windows Mobile, Alt+keys directly enters accented characters, which are a bit more cumbersome to bring up under WinMo.
Note that the built-in Tools / Connectivity / Wlss Keyboard works without the need to install any third-party driver – apart from the complete lack of program / task switcher shortcuts and the lack of the English Pound, Japanese Yen and Euro entry.
Conclusion
All in all, the drivers are fully compatible with even the latest devices / firmware versions on all mobile platforms. On Windows Mobile, all the tested WM6 devices, Smartphones and Pocket PC’s alike, worked just great.
That is, you don’t need to be afraid of purchasing the keyboard – it WILL (almost surely) work. The only device not compatible was the HTC Oxygen / s310 low-end MS Smartphone. This doesn’t mean there aren’t other WinMo devices incompatible with the existing drivers, though - it's just that I haven't found one.

a good friend of mine bought a Touch Cruise couple of days ago... i just wasn't aware its aka Polaris...
Any Updates
well .... it seems that htc didit again, most of the opinions are that is no good, i am wondering now if the ported diamond rom has improvements on camera frames?
does any body knows someting about that
Hi,
I have recently bought a HTC Tytn II mobile (Windows Mobile 6.1).
It has a preinstalled JVM JBlend (build number v3.3.5, 20071228.1.1).
Does the JBlend JVM support (Location API)JSR 179 ?
When ever I try to run any midlet, the midlet hangs - shows blank Screen with Title only. ( looks like some kind of refresh problem )
Any suggestions on how to get around this?
Any upgrades avaliable for JBlend that i might need to install ?
Regards
Rahul
did you ever get to sort this out?
Folks,
previously, there were several issues with Lotus Easysync 4.2.6 to work on more recent WM 6.1 ROMs, especially with more recent HTC Devices like the HD or Diamond Pro. A workaround using Mortscriipt was puslished in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-481691.html which solved the problem but involved doing some extra stuff.
Now, a new version of Easysync was released in January - 4.2.7. Also, the IBM release information explicitly states that it was built to cure the "newer HTC Devices" problem (see: http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?subtype=ca&infotype=an&appname=iSource&supplier=897&letternum=ENUS210-021). There it says:
IBM® Lotus® EasySync® Pro 4.2.7 adds support to the following:
- Federated Calendar support for IBM Lotus Notes® 8.5 or later
- Windows® Mobile 6.5
- New 2009 phones from HTC (High Tech Computer Corporation)
I tried it on my Stock HTC ROM with WM6.1 and it works now. No need for any workarounds with MortScript or the like - just a plain install.
Hope this information is helpful for those who got stuck with Easysync 4.2.6 or did not want to try out the workarounds.
Plz help i want to upgrade my i mate ultimate 8150
to 6.5 mobile windows
tell me about it how should i do it
regards
I think it isn't a magician
Hello there!
I think the 8150 isn't a HTC Magician, because:
-it has 520 Mhz CPU, not 416, as in the Magician
-it has VGA resolution (480*640), not QVGA (240*320) as in the Magician
-it has Built-in numeric phone keyboard, the magician doesn't have this good
-supports microSD, the magician only supports full sized sd cards
-it has TWO camera, not 1 as in the Magician
And last the most important:
it has WIFI. the magician doesn't have wifi. (i wish it have )
Hope it helps
Regards:
Reeedim
EDIT: If you would like Wm 6.5 on your phone, there's a WinMo 6.5 skin for SPB Mobile shell 3.5 somewhere out. Search it on XDA
os updrade
pls. help me updrade my ultimate 8150 os to wm6.5 if possible.
