WM5, IE and MHT files - General Topics

At work we have an online phone book, this can be saved into a ".mht" file which can be opened in IE but used standalone without the need for network access. its a basic search script to do the search after you enter the persons name which then populates the name and phone number fields.
Is there any way of converting this to work on WM5 and IE as IE does not recognise it as an app.
Thanks

You'll need either the Qusnetsoft MHT Viewer (see http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1341 ) or (less recommended!) NetFront.

Qmail questions: lock and html rendering

I am trying out qmail for a variety of reasons.
One thing I am finding frustrating is that qmail issues a lock in the folder where mail is stored. If I soft reset, the lock persists because I have the mail stored on the miniSD card, but this means I get the question "WM_user has locked the file, do you want to continue?" Answering yes clears it but since I want the program to run automatically at start up, I would like to eliminate the query. Is there a way to prevent the locking or, if not, to prevent the question?
Second, I went to the trouble to install a bunch of RSS feeds, none of which render properly. The nature of the problem is that html commands aren't being rendered, even with "html mode" checked. I tried a bunch of different settings (quote mode, raw mode, etc.) but none of them led to proper rendering. Clearly others using the program aren't having this trouble; can you point me in the direction that would let me see these feeds? I like the idea of a single program doing mail and RSS, all from the SD card.

I've been using qmail for a while now, and I've found the locked file problem is caused when qmail is running and your PPC is turned off. qmail doesn't seem to handle this very well, but if you shut qmail down before turning your PPC off you don't get the locked file issue.
As to the rendering html rss feeds, I've found this happens only when you are online and try and view the feed. If you are offline you just get a blank page, but if you turn the html view off you get the raw view of the feed.
Not a perfect program, but a whole lot better than the built in one.
Cheers

Automate deletion?
Azol (http://www.azol.ru/texts/QMail3_eng_FAQ.htm) has a means of automating the checking of mail, and of semi-automatically deleting messages from the server when they are deleted from Inbox. I would like to automate this process -- adding a command to apply the rules using autopilot. Does anyone know how to do this?
Also, has anyone figured out how to put the number new messages Qmail has found on the Today screen? That isn't so important to me -- I'm planning on using Qmail for travel rather than as my regular service -- but it would help make it a complete replacement.
Finally, Qmail doesn't work one-handed very well; it would be nice if some of the Dpad keys did useful things.

You may want to use for example nScriptm to start Qmail: instead of just starting Qmail via a lnk file, just delete the lock file from a nScriptm script and, then, Shell () Qmail. Please see for example my latest screenshot-related article for more info on nScriptm.

Or Skschema
Thanks. I figured out how to do this with skschema, as in order to run qmail automatically from the minisd card, I need to delay launching; programs in Windows/Startup start up before the miniSD is available (I even tried a faster card to see if this would fix it, but it didn't) and hence don't start and generate errors. I use skschema to start qmail, and also to start phmtraylaunch since the icons from the minisd card aren't available, either, at the time it starts.

Yup, SKSchema / nScriptm is also a great tool to do this. With earlier PMRecorder versions, I did need to use it (see for example http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=513&c=1&page=1&more=1&tb=1&pb=1 if interested) to avoid the \Storage Card2 problem

Qmail is perfect for me, with one exception. When I hit reply, the original message fills the page. I just want a clean screen to type my reply, and I don't want to include the original. This program does practically everything but this. Any ideas?
Thanks

This can indeed not be got rid of.
You can, however, just tap and hold the screen, choose Select All and, then, just click Delete on the Keyboard SIP to get rid of eveyrthing.

Thanks, I was afraid that was the only solution.

qmail questions
I'm having a huge problem sending email with qmail. One thing that would help is if I understood all the settings in the program, which are different from anything else I have ever seen, probably due to it being translated from Japanese.In tool/account/general, I understand that host information refers to the incoming and outgoing servers, but what is to be put in "user information". Is "address" an email address? "User" tab seems simple enough, as I use authentication and just enter the same in "outgoing" as in "incoming". "Detail" is simple enough. "Pop3" as well, though I don't know what apop is. "SMTP" tab; what do I do here? I don't think I am using a local host. "Dialup" is ok. In "advanced" I read on this forum that my email address should go in "identity". Is this right? If so, would this be the address of the account I receive email with or of the account I send with(if they were different)? I have a comcast account on cingular service. The messaging program can receive and send email using mail.comcast.net and smtp.comcast.net with authentication and no ssl, but qmail can't. Two months ago it could, but now it cannot. Now I"m going to try using a hotpop account to send, but I'm not real confident this will work, since I'm not sure h ow to configure qmail. Any help would be apprecited, Meinnesyss or anyone else.

Here, you only need to enter the info that will be displayed as a sender name / address. In most cases, you can enter here anything.

How to create start menu item for Java program? (i.e. Gmail client?)

I think I've searched the forum pretty well, but i still can't find out how to add a start menu item to my HTC Fuze (Touch pro) gmail client (which is a java app). I've seen in other threads how to set up gmail with the native email client on the phone, but i'd like ot use the actual java gmail client without having to navigate from start menu -> java -> gmail. how do i do this?
also, how do i set the client so it's signed? it always asks me for permission to access the internet when i want to refresh or send a message. how can i sign gmail so it doesnt ask this?
thanks!

first of you ned to uninstall gmail from your midlet manager and then goto its directory and then into the appdb subdir and note the LAST "suite" file (they have a number after them) and then reinstall gmail and then go back to the appdb folder and note the NEW suite file made and then make a duplicate of any lnk in the start menu and then go into its properties and change the location to this
"Storage Card\Program Files\JBed3dMod\Jbed.exe" -run s69_"
of course adjust the above path to MATCH your midlet managers location AND THE SUITE NUMBER
any problems pm me as i will probably forget i posted here

Where can I find the midlet mannager?I installed some java apps and I don't know how to access them again!

Well, most would likely has the word Java in the Start->Program. If you use cooked rom, it might be moved to other folder in Start->Program.

Great thanks! Just FYI to other readers: since gmail was the first midlet i installed (and i'm running ROMEOS latest which starts out with no midlets installed) then in the \windows\appdb folder there was only one suite file set to choose from (a bunch of files all starting with s1_). Thus, I created a link in the "\windows\start menu" folder with following line in the properties (including the quotation marks)
"\Windows\jbed.exe" -run appdb\s1_"
It worked! now when i click this item in the start menu, it brings up gmail. If only i could change the icon...
What about the signing problem? Whenever I refresh Gmail's inbox or try to send an email, it asks me if i'm okay with it being "untrusted". I've found other posts that explained how to use the native email client with Gmail, but I'd like to get the java gmail client to work without the repetitive questioning. How can we tell the phone to let the Gmail midlet do what it wants? (i know i know...i'll go read the wiki

Here's how to deal with the 'trust' issue with Gmail in Java from an article on pdaphonehome.com regarding the Opera Mini midlet. This works the same for the Gmail app.
Skipping the Connection Permission Prompt (Only applies to JBed)
One of the only negatives of using Jbed, over Jeodek, used to be that any time an application wanted to access to the Internet, Jbed would ask twice if you want to allow the action. It will also forget this permission next time you ran the application, so you would have to give permission every time you ran a Midlet that tried to access the Internet. Thanks to forum user g-funkster, a work around for this annoyance has been found!
1.) Copy the file \windows\appdb\selector.utf to your PC (make sure backup this file first in case something goes wrong!)
2.) Remove read-only attribute
3.) Open the file with a hex editor, and find the line
Code:
domain=untrusted, \
Replace the text untrusted with the text tckmax. Add space characters between the x (in tckmax) and the comma (otherwise connection warnings or a nullpointerexception error may occur). The above line may appear multiple times in the "selector.utf" file, each corresponds to a different Java Midlet you have installed in JBed.
Code:
domain=tckmax , \
If hex editing is too blackhat for you, g-funkster has created a desktop application that can do this for you automatically! You can find it here.

I used Notepad++ to edit the file and it worked perfectly.

I need a few fuze fixes

I have tried to look through but there are alot of posts and don't know how exactly to look this up but I need to know how to fix something with my internet. I have yahoo mail and don't use the xpressmail with at&t. I try to go to my normal mail.yahoo.com and it goes to the mobile version. I hate mobile versions of the websites. The yahoo version won't let you do anything other than text. No attachments or anything.
I need to just view full webpages. How do I change the settings to view them only? (saw something on at&t website but don't understand it and some people said it didn't work)
Second, I need to know how to allow for just the swirl zoom and not the tap zoom. When I open and it goes to landscape it gets rid of the swirl zoom on the internet and will only use the tap way to zoom. I don't like that way. I prefer the zoom by the d pad.
Third, If I am looking at playing alot of video and going to start getting some games on my fuze and wanted to know if I should change my display settings to something else that will make it look better. I remember on my last one(yes I had to replace one) somehow I got to display settings and they had options to change to xvga, vga, etc. Isn't Vga the best or is it set at the best as the default. Granted it looks good the way it is but I want the best for when I start doing video. And how do I get to it? I was looking around for it and can't find it anywhere now.
Also I was looking on what gps program to get. I was looking at the tomtom and was wondering what people thought of it. And what version would I need to get? Would you recommend a different one like garmin?
Sorry if these are double posts.

70 views and no answers and already to the 3rd page. Can anyone help me on this? No one on the at&t have replied and no one has here either.
Please help me, I'm having issues and need them fixed right away.

1. Go to the Opera configuration page (replace "http://<whatever>" with "opera:config" -- without the quotes). Scroll down to "Proxy" and open that section by clicking on it. Make sure that the entries for "HTTP Server" and "HTTPS server" are empty and hit "Save" at the bottom of the section. Then scroll down to "User Agent," open that, set "Spoof UserAgent ID" to 3, and hit "Save." Finally, scroll down to "User Prefs," open it, set "Custom User-Agent" to "Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 6.0; en)" (again, without the quotes), and save it. That may be overkill; someone posted, for instance, that you get the same results by simply deleting the Custom User-Agent string instead of setting it to the value above. I haven't tried that. All I can say is that this combination of settings shows me the full web pages for all the sites I normally visit. YMMV.
2. No clue.
3. The display on the Fuze is 640x480 pixels, otherwise known as VGA resolution. A video encoded for VGA resolution will have the maximum sharpness of which the Fuze is capable. It may not be the best viewing experience, though, depending on what you are using on the Fuze to play the video and how it was encoded (the codec used, frame rate, etc.) -- you may experience performance problems such as "tearing," dropped frames, stuttering, etc. There's a lot of discussion currently about what's the best encoding for the Fuze, better drivers, the best player and settings therefor, etc. It's not a settled question nor an exact science. (I don't know what you mean by "How do I get to it?")
4. I use a free over-the-air turn-by-turn navigation service from amazegps.com. I think it does an excellent job for my needs. If you want to buy one, though, you should definitely consider OnCourse Navigator 8 (OCN8). I haven't used it, but the reviews I've seen are very enthusiastic.

I don't use Yahoo mail, but I see the normal HTML view of Gmail -- not the mobile version -- in Opera, using the settings I gave in the preceding message.

Try accessing your email from The Skyfire browser until someone outlines a full fox for you..

You can try using messaging/pocket outlook
You can also add Yahoo! Mail to messaging/pocket outlook, I have 4 accounts set up in pocket outlook/messaging GMail, Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and my works exchange mail. I would suggest setting these up with imap settings over pop3 settings.
GMail has instructions for this pretty much step my step. Yahoo! doesn't officially support imap on wm devices but i am using an imap server settings. Its a little tricky to get set up because WM likes to grab settings for pop3 first. You can by pass this by putting in a different domain [email protected], [email protected] and then proceed to manually set up the accounts. If you have OCD then you can fix the email address after you have finished setting it up in pocket outlook/messaging.
GMail
incoming mail server (imap)
imap.gmail.com
user name is your full email address.
outgoing mail server
smtp.gmail.com
check box outgoing server requires authentication
check box use same user name and password
Advanced settings(link on page where you put in outgoing mail server info)
check box require ssl for incoming
check box require ssl for outgoing
Yahoo!
incoming mail server (imap)
imap.next.mail.yahoo.com (it works!)
user name is your yahoo login name (ex abc)
outgoing mail server
smtp.mail.yahoo.com
check box outgoing server requires authentication
check box use same user name and password
Advanced settings(link on page where you put in outgoing mail server info)
check box require ssl for incoming
check box require ssl for outgoing
For Hotmail to work you have to install a cab (for stock Fuze rom)otherwise it will direct you to a web based version.
Setting the accounts up in messaging will also allow you to preview messages in the TF3d email tab.

I tried this and it still comes up on opera as the mobile version. So Wish I knew how to fix this. Now media net isn't my homepage. And media net won't even show up. Still need a fix then. I may have to just use xpressmail if I can't find a fix.
Can anyone tell me what the default settings are so I can go back to the way it was. Until there is a fix that works.

Sorry; it's been a couple of weeks since I did this so I had forgotten that it disabled MEdia net. (Personally I couldn't care less about MEdia net, so it was no loss at all for me to exchange that for seeing full web sites; that's why I forgot about it.) I don't know why your web site still comes up as the mobile version; as I said, this does the trick for all the sites I use.

well, Is there any way to get the settings back, cause it didn't fix the issue and want to go back then. I want to keep medianet. i may have to do express mail after all, since no one knows how to fix it for atleast yahoo mail.

I've just spent a few minutes searching through the forum and can't find the post that I remember where someone gave the original settings for those configuration items; maybe it was on some other board. In any event, the best I can suggest is that if no one tells you what the original settings were, you can make a backup using Sprite backup; hard reset the device; go to opera:config and write down the original settings; restore the backup; and then change the settings to what you wrote down from the fresh boot.

I found the post I was thinking of over on the AT&T forum. That only addresses the proxy server names, but I think that may be all you need to get back to MEdia Net. HTH.

Than fixed it but wish I could figure out what is the problem with yahoo mail and how to fix the whole mobile website thing.

I had the same issue with the zoom wheel. Not sure if this is what fixed it but, in Opera goto Settings - Dispaly. Check Auto Full Screen, Show Images & Block Pop-ups. Uncheck Mobile view.
Has been working correctly since.

This is in the "Settings" choice on the menu you get when you hit the button at the lower right of the screen and then hit the "menu" icon (the one furthest to the right at the bottom of the screen).

I just tried that too.The menu-display. the mobile view isn't checked and I still get the mobile view of the darn yahoo mail. Still don't know how to fix it and I believe paypal is the same.

Yeah, the "mobile display" option controls how Opera sizes and formats pages; it doesn't affect which page (mobile or regular) is being accessed. I don't know how Yahoo mail, etc., are detecting the Fuze as a mobile device; the user agent and proxy fixes take care of many/most pages, but there's obviously something else.

How to migrate from iPhone to Android

Sorry if this has been posted before. This was one of those "late-night family specials" and I had to write it down somewhere.
I will polish this up later. Hope it helps!
1) Connect your iPhone to iTunes and make a backup.
a) Wait for iPhone to list.
b) Right click, then select Backup.
Depending on the size of data on your phone and the last backup performed, this could take a while.
2) Download SQLite Database Extractor and iFunBox. It's a bit unpleasant, but it'll work.
3) Do the following to restore key information:
PHOTOS
-----------
iPhones are recognized as cameras in Windows and Mac, so pull photos like you normally would (iPhoto, Windows Explorer, etc.)
SMS
-----
Go to this (http://faked.org/isms2droid/index.php) website and follow the instructions.
CONTACTS
--------------
This is the messy part. (You must be syncing your phone with a Google account to make this work.)
BIG NOTE: If your iPhone can access the internet, the easiest way to do this is to add your Google account on the iPhone and sync everything that way. See http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252 for details.
1) Open iPhone Backup Extractor and wait for it to finish loading data.
2) When finished, click "Expert Mode"
3) Click on LIBRARY, then ADDRESSBOOK, then AddressBook.sqlitedb
4) Click Extract Selected, then save to somewhere convenient (like the Desktop). It will display a warning; just click OK. NOTE: The program costs $34.95. Unfortunately, it's not worth it.
5) Navigate to the folder you saved this file in, then click LIBRARY, then AddressBook.
5) Open SQL Database Extractor. When it opens, drag this file into the application. If you did this right, you should get tons of dropdown menus.
6) Click on Edit, then Create Table. Name the table whatever you want; I will use "TEST_TABLE" as the name in this example.
7) Click Add, then type "First" for field name and "TEXT" for field type. Repeat this twice, entering the data below:
Field Names: "Last", "Mobile"
Field Type: "TEXT", "TEXT"
8) When done, click on "Execute SQL" and enter the following query in the SQL string:
INSERT INTO "test_table" (First, Last, Mobile) SELECT AbPerson.First AS First, AbPerson.Last AS Last, AbMultiValue.value AS Mobile FROM AbPerson, AbMultiValue WHERE (AbPerson.ROWID = AbMultiValue.record_id AND AbMultiValue.value LIKE '%(%)%')
If it worked, you should see "No error" underneath "Error message from database engine"
BIG NOTE: If you mess up the query above, SQLite Database Browser will freeze! Yes, I know it sucks. I'm going to make a better way.
BIG NOTE 2: Everyone's phone number will be recognized as mobile numbers. Remember that this is a quick way of getting your contacts back.
BIG NOTE 3: If the person's number is not in the format [+...] (prefix) suffix, it will be lost. Sorry
9) Click on "Browse Data" and select the table you created (here, TEST_TABLE) from the "Table" dropdown. If it worked, you'll see first names, last names and phone numbers.
10) Click on File, then Export, then Export As CSV File. Select TEST_TABLE for the table name and click Export to complete. Save it somewhere convenient, like the desktop. Click OK, then exit. Don't save the new table.
11) Log into your Gmail account and go to your contacts. Click on MORE ACTIONS, then IMPORT.
12) Browse to the CSV file you just created. Then click Import. If it worked, you should see all of your contacts in Gmail, and they will appear in your phone in a few minutes.
The worst is now behind you!
MUSIC
--------
Going by memory, sorry. There are two good ways of doing it:
(a) the easy way:
1) Download DoubleTwist and install
2) Wait for device to connect
3) Click on it, then click Sync Music
4) Get good coffee to enjoy while waiting.
(b) the geeky way:
1) Open iFunBox
2) When your phone is recognized, expand it, then click Raw File System, then iTunes_Control, then Music
3) Copy ALL folders somewhere convenient.
4) When that's finished, connect your Android device as USB storage.
5) Create a folder called Music or similar if not already present.
6) Copy all of those folders into that directory. You will lose the pretty names, but all of the music will be organized automatically.

How can I export contacts from POCO X3 NFC to PC ?

I can't find how to export all contacts to PC. The user manual is just childish stupid !
This must include all data (Name, phone numbers, etc)
Must I connect the device to a usb port or wifi and upload to cloud ?
Are they located on simcard or somewhere inside the device ?

1: Open Contacts app separately. (Not through dialer.)
2: Press 3 dots top right.
3: Select All
4: Click the share button.
5: From there you can choose to share it or save it locally on your phone which can then be copied to PC.
All contacts will be condensed into one .vcf file which is recognised by all phones.
All the best.

Thank you Alrich
After creating the vcf file:
I see the share icon. The wanted choice for me would be to send that file to the PC.
The Poco X3 NFC is usb connected to my pc with function file transfer allowed.
On the Poco screen I assume that the 'monitor' icon is the symbol for local pc ?
Clicking that option opens right away the app Casten which is asking access (3 options shown).
This app seems to be mandatory. I would have expected instantaneous copy operation instead of again another app authorization.
So far so good. But what to do with issue ‘Casten' ?
Even when going in this application settings and allowing 'location' I keep turning in a loop.

Can't you simply send the file to your email account and then download it on your PC?

I now try #4 (sharing with my gmail account).
The process shows a large spinning wheel and above a text Informatie controleren ... (Dutch). This seems to spin for ever.
By the way, I will change the language to English, for the purpose of reporting exactly what appears on screen..

At #3
I made a faulty assumption. The 'screen' icon is not for pc sharing. It seems to be for sharing the vcf file on screens ! What the hell has "exporting contacts" to do with sharing screens. Very confusing.

No idea what that might be. Maybe you have many contacts.
You can also try this:
Contacts - Share
And then select a file manager app. That way you can simply save the vcf file on your phone.
Then connect your phone to your PC and then copy the vcf file over

Meanwhile I managed to store Contacts on my PC.
But first, let me tell what NOT to do : Exporting to merged CSV file would be ok, if Excel would open that in a usual view. That however is not the case because Excel shows a useless scrambled view mixing all commas and data.
I found a free software that converts the csv file to another file that shows a normal view in Excel. Download from SourceForge https://sourceforge.net/projects/bulkvcftocsv/
Using that software Excel opens all Contacts as a normal sheet. This is easy to edit.
I assume that it can be used to import in iPhone devices.
No need to export contacts to pc via Google account, but you might like to do that also.
I do not know if there is any other easier method. Eventually why make things too simple if there is a more difficult way ?

#7 came was read after my fix described in #8. I might like to try it later

Possible cause: CSV standard is Comma Separated Values; in my experience and unless properly configured, Excel expects Colon Separated Values...
