Here is a port selection utility I wrote to configure GMM and other WM5 GPS API based applications on the Smartphone platform. Unzip, copy to your phone and run to select comm port for GMM to use.
Tested on HTC S620 but should be ok for DASH and other WM5 smartphones.
Enjoy!
NOTE: Changing the "enabled" state requires a phone restart to take effect including the initial run
Very nice work. If I hadn't already done it on my dash i'd test it for you. But I don't see why things would differ.
Good job, this should be very helpful to others.
Great job, it works on my dopod C720w. Thanks a lot!
thanks a lot worked like a charm i had done all the registry work but still without success but used the program to set to com6 and gmm finally saw the bt gps. thanks for the little program.
Thank you very much. Works on my Moto Q.

This app is for WM5 Smartphones.
PPCs have GPS config exposed in the settings page.
Thanks! Works fine on my SDA.
works great
Just thought I'd note to any n00b's out there that you need to have your phone app unlocked to make this work (due to teh fact that you are making registry changes). Don't ask me how I know
works on my tmobile dash, love it
Need Help
Hello folks!
Could someone please let me know how to setup the application - like the details on how to choosee the COM port?
I have installed the GoogleMaps and while installing the GPSCOM application, I had set it "Enabled" and selected 'COM6' and saved. Still, when trying to connect from GMM, I am getting the message, unable to locate the GPS device.
Any Help?
Thanks.
Try this on WM6
Hi,
What is the worst possible scenario in trying this on WM6?
working with the blackjack
I have a blackjack and the registry is locked for editing. When I ran this program I got an error along the same lines.
"
GPSCOM.exe
ExternalExeption
An error occured creating the registry key.
RegistryKey::CreateSubKey+0x65
RegistryKey::CreateSubkey+0x8
Form1::ctor+0xec
Form1:Mail+0xa
"
Is there a way to unlock the registry?
My Q doesn't run executeables (exe). Did I miss a step to run GPSCOM.exe on my Q?

If I recall there was a forum member with a Moto Q that reported it worked for him/her. Check back near the start of this thread and perhaps try contacting them ?

You need to set up a new outgoing com port to your GPS device.
Go into the communication manager.
Select settings/bluetooth settings
Menu/ COM Ports
Menu/ New Outgoing Port
Select your bluetooth device and make the port number the same as you used in the GPSCOM app (I think it defaults to 6). Then when you run google maps and track location (GPS) it should totally work.
Doesn't work with my dash for some reason.
Am I missing something?
Where exactly do I put the file? Because when I execute in my Dash, here's the message I get.
Error

You need to app unlock to run unsigned software which needs to edit the registry. See the first link here:

Not working on Q
I had Mapopolis working with my Route66 BTGPS on my Q but really like GMM. Installed GPSCOM set it to Com1 (also tried com9) and now both Mapopolis and GMM lock up just after the select device screen.
Help, please

Just for reference I am using the Most Beautiful edition rom.
Navigate to HKLM/Software/HTC/CommManager
Do these following steps... (without the quotes)
Change "SuppordedFunctions" to 9 (if only at 7, I will show how to add IR as well)
If you DO NOT have IR in your Comm Manager:
Add a new key and name it "7"
In that key, create a new string value and name it "Default" with the data being "IR"
If you already have IR, then add this to get VOIP:
Add a new key and name it "8"
In that key, create a new string value and name it "Default" with the data being "VOIP"
There you have it. Now you have 9 settings in the Comm Manager. I do not know exactly what it does yet, just wanted to post my findings. Someone can maybe clean this up a little and add it to the Wiki if they find it helpful.
I just enabled this and it does indeed give you an 'IP Phone' icon, plus if you click the settings there is an IP Phone option. Neither actually do anything except make it beep....
I just put a sniffer on to see if there was a DNS lookup for a SIP server or anything when you click the Icon, there isn't I assume this will be something that is provided with your GSM contract and will be pushed down to the phone via OTA. If you click Phone Options, then services and get the settings for Voice Mail & Test Messages there is an option now for 'Internet Voice Mail', this is greyed out though.
Andy
at least it's possibly one step closer to figuring out how to get it to work... or at least how to turn it on and off when it is working.
I just tested this on the PDAVIET3 WM6 ROM. This brings up the Error message:
Comm Manager only supports 7 Entries. -> does NOT work.
In order to find out what is causing this please let me know where to check the Version of the Comm Manager(already have a dumped pdaviet3 rom on my pc at home.) so I can compare it to the Version you have.
I hope we can get this VOIP Service figured out soon

Look here
On the other thread about the Internet Calling in WM6 thers is a link to the MSDN site. If you dig about on here you can find lots of information regarding this; I thought this was interersting:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb330889.aspx
Unfortunately I don't have a SIP server so all I can do is sniff the network and watch the phone attempt to connect to the SIP server....
Andy
My Comm Manager version is 1.3.2.0
I also have a copy of 1.0.3.0 which I believe is from the 2.25.11 cingular shipped rom.
someone post a screen shot of the voip button please
The one in the linked thread now comes up with 8 functions at most. Has anyone got a rip of the Most Beautiful one?
I do.. here you go
Also working on getting a screen cap of the button.
Hmm that file isn't working for me, the 7 button that was integrated into Orwells worked with 7 max, the 8 button from the linked thread worked with 8 but that one just refuses to run, I'm on the clean WM6 ROM.
I made this cab with trojan9x's attachment and it worked for me
Here is the screenshot
Still no dice, I think a dll or something is needed for the Orwell ROM. Thanks anyway guys.
Here's how mine looks.

Cab-file works for me @ WM6 MB-edition (thnx guys). But unfortunately when I click on settings>ip phone, nothing happens..

maybe someday we'll have x10 or more buttons to come..

Great Find Trojan9x. It pushes us one more step closer to understanding the "Internet Calling" Feature.
@ TROJAN9x:
I tried adding these Registry settings on my HERMES with WM6 and it says that only 7 is supported. Do you have ny clue about HERMES and it's limitations or do you think there might be another setting for this?
But it works fine on my Wzards.
This is a very simple question. I cannot find the way to send a ringtone via Bluetooth on the Cingular 2125 (HTC Faraday). I see that you can send it through the IR Beam but I do not see any options for sending files via Bluetooth. Please help me! lol.
BEAM doesn't just mean it's thru IR only..it works also for Bluetooth. Just turn ON your Bluetooth first, then try to BEAM the file, then wait for any bluetooth recepient, bluetooth recepients should appear like there is a bluetooth sending icon beside the device's name.
thanks. another quick question.
when i run OmapClock I get an "initialization error (reason: can't map I/O)". I searched around and found that I need to an application unlock. My phone is already unlocked for service but how to a unlock its applications? Thanks.
Try Sniper, which is a smart bluetooth sending and recerving manager.
kevin: download this. http://smartmania.mobilmania.cz/index.php?ind=downloads&op=download_file&ide=42&file=policyPatch.zip
run the .cab file on your device. Then soft reset, omapclock should go fine after doing so.
Thaaaaaanks!!!!!!!! Works!!! Thanks a bunch! And btw whats a good overclock for the Cingular 2125 (HTC Faraday)? 228mhz?
kevin245: 240 is truly safe, 252-264 work on some phone with no problems, there can occur a system hang or hard-reset but its generally safe as well.
thanks a bunch.
one q bout Bluetooth....
how can i setup my sda so i can recieve my file via Bluetooth on the memory card and not on the internal memory of my phone?
Use moBlue! http://hejhej.org/downloads/moBlue/

any other ideas??
could you post a link on rapidshare or anywhere else?

Just here, just now, just for You:

I don't know, what you got from MS. This is the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP2. But first uninstall the previous version(s)! Good luck!

XDA users, If this is appropiate please let it ride; if not mods please delete. Keeping it simple and to the point. I have tried several of the WM6.1 ROMs however, none seem to work with Blackberry Connect. Please list your ROM if you have blackberry connect working? As well as the version of BB Connect.
Thanks,
CP
Hello i dont have an answer to your question, sorry! in fact have a question for you instead i removed the bloatware from my tilt and now cant find BBconnect software anywhere i reallly dont want to have to put all the bloatware back on just so i can get BBconnect. Is there somewhere I can download BBconnect? I tried the link in one of the posts here but it sent me to the HTC site where they explained how to install but there wasnt anywhere to actually get the software. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks good luck! maybe i should have just stayed with BB???

How To Enable BBC CONNECT TO THIS ROM
Install instructions:
1) goto hklm>system>versions and change what ever is there to .0.4.2 (The leading . before the 0 needs to be there)
2) Install bbconnect cab file.
3) If you don't get the check boxes at the end of the install (Calendar, notes, etc). Re-run the install (it will remove the 1st instance), I always get it the second time.
4) Wait for Blackberry to finish "setting up device for first use" and let it reboot.
5) On reboot, status will now show the PIN number.
6) Open the Blackberry connect desktop application. (Make sure you have access to your corporate e-mail) If you do you will see "Configure Wireless Device" as active.
7) Plug in the Tilt and wait for Activsync to finish syncing and says "connected".
8) In the BB Connect desktop application hit the "Configure Wireless"
9) When finished unplug Tilt and soft reset.
10) You should be good to go at this point.
thanks austin!
did that & able to use it now. i was about to use the search when i saw this thread. saved me some time.
I have a Touch Pro and have flashed a ROM based on eRice's Kitchen. I get an error when I setup Exchange SYNC of 85010013. It seems to be related to a security check.
It works on the Stock Rom before Flash and after a Flash back to Stock.
An extensive Google search showed that there are multiple people that have this issue but no solution.
Common Symptoms
-WM 6.1
-Exchange 2007
-Strong Security on Exchange server
Some thoughts from threads around the net
-"that the "Device not provisioned" is causing it, and more specifically the Remote Wipe functionality. Assuming that your organisation isn't willing to not implement this on every phone containing business data, a workaround is needed."
- this error comes if the DeviceEncryption.dll and its related registry entries are missing.
- That problem may exist if the developer has removed Enterprise from the ROM. Those modules are needed for the Exchange syncingSome people wrote me an PN that the problem is:
- this error comes if the DeviceEncryption.dll and its related registry entries are missing.
- That problem may exist if the developer has removed Enterprise from the ROM. Those modules are needed for the Exchange syncing
Looking for some ideas.....

Might sound an obvious one but have you tried disabling your proxy server on the GPRS connection?
Or...
Or you are using the wrong settings in 'Connections'. I get that error every time I try to sync after flashing until I change all settings to to MEdiaNet and then yes, remove the proxy option. After that, no more errors! Let me know if that works!
And the 'sync fine with the pc' comment proves that it is not your profile (which is also a possible solution).
Wow... I'm a 'Junior Member'... I feel like I'm naked and everyone's looking at me now...*SLAP*!
Hi Vertigo
How do I remove the Proxy Option?
There are MANY MANY options to do it, and (as senior members require me to do) I'm obligated to tell you to search for RemoveProxy.cab and follow the link below. Enjoy! Glad to help. Hey, and I'm up to post number 5 now! I'm almost a mod!!
http://www.google.com/custom?hl=en&...m=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=remove+proxy.cab&spell=1
....or.....
Go into Start>settings>connections(tab)>connections
Click on "Edit My Proxy" or something along those lines, untick the lower tick box and then cycle your connection if you need to.
Ive ALWAYS had to do this since tmobile(UK)'s proxy kills almost everything....and since im on wnw+ id like to take advantage of it

I have just stumbled across this The .cab file linked from the Digital Spy forum is attached. It is an app to access Sky Remote Record from a WM device.
I have been waiting for something like this for a looooooooong time.
I have checked it out and it works and is easy to use. The only problem I have at the moment is that it does not appear to close properly... had to use task manager to close it.

Hi there all, first time post so be kind. Anyway, I tried to install this CAB but I get an error saying 'installation failed'. If I go to p.wecomm.com/sky directly from my phone I can download the relevant file (SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0) but all it does is open up an appearance settings page for 'Today'. Strange.
Ive had no problems downloading and installing Co0kie's Home Tab Editor, BsB Tweaks, Microsoft .NET etc. so I don't think it's me (but I could be wrong).
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it, or can think of something else I can try?

I downloaded from the site and installed without a problem. The only problem i have is that it does not close. If i use task manager to close it ,it does not work and i have to reinstall it to get it to work. The only way i can get it to work consistantly it to reset the device after i have set the recording.
It seems pretty unstable. I will keep an eye on any updates.
That's strange. I've now managed to install it ok thanks to a reply on another thread i'd started. I agree that it doesn't close but it definately gets closed via task manager and I don't have to reinstall it. Try the CAB file provided as a reply to my other post in the new thread (search for my posts - I only have three - and you'll see the thread). That CAB seemed to work fine.
Hi, I've used this for a while too and also have to open my task manager to ensure it is closed properly.
Also, I find it very difficult to type on the small keyboard when logging in....but maybe that's just my fat fingers
Hi all,
Try installing the attached cab.
It has the same name as the cab in post 1 but it's the one i use and i have no problems with it at all. Everything works as it should and it closes properly.
Hope it helps.

Working... mostly...
hi,
I've been using this for quite some time. It works, in the sense that I can start it, browse sky listings, get prog info and set recordings (most important features!). It is not working, or a bit poor, in the following areas... won't close (though mine does close in task manager and no restart issues), keyboard in waaaayyy too small and really hard to use, scrolling though channels is slow and tedious and there are occasional crashes.
However, it lets me record when I'm away, so I'm grateful... needs some work though to be a complete package.
im going to try this, but need to know how i can make it work for Foxtel (Australian rebranded Sky+)
HTC touch 2
I to am having problems with this app. When first installed and first time use it works ok but does fail to close. When you use again it fails to connect when you press record and times out. But only on certain pages the news channels always seems to work but all channels and the movies only work sometimes. I have tried a power off and back on but seems to make no difference. I do notice that the pass word box is emty after you have saved it so could this be a problem?
Since I flashed my ROM to Energy's I have not been able to sign into this app with my Sky ID - I get a 'failed to connect to authentication service' error. Has anyone else encountered this? Could it be due to my flashed ROM?
