WM2005 available from Microsoft!!

You can get the WM2005 Evaluation from here:

Now what we need is someone to build a rom for the magician for it. Come on guys you know your s%#t better than anyone out there. Get us a working jam rom going here.

anyone has try this?
why it need large harddisk space (600MB) for temporary internet files, much bigger then we need for ROM, Extended ROM and Radio???
what is the consequencies when the 120 days trial period expired?

or maybe someone could fixed the current WM2005 bugs with this trial wm2005? just wonder, is it an emulation program for windows ce?

It's for PC not for Pocket PC, just an emulation of WM2005 and run on PC.

No it is not for PC, you must read better. It is the core operating system with emulators for PC. How do you think they develop and test roms. You think they just slap a bunch of binary code together and upload it ro a ppc and test as they go. You must have emulators to test your software. This is not only for device development but also for application developers to test their software on a OS without having to install to a ppc.

Hi,
I read it already, and I think it is WM2005 emulator only. With Software Development Kit (SDK) to create a program to run on WM2005.
I don't there is a ROM or something like a part of ROM to cook for our real device's ROM.
Best regards,
Arto.

yes it does include the SDK and emulators but also includes the platform builder to create your OWN Win CE 5 roms. Just building one now for the magician.

don't forget himalaya if you develope one.

Building as in programming and developing, or building as in compiling and installing?

The WinCE 5.0 Dev kit is around for some time now. It is not gona be easy to make a working rom for the magician. The dev kit is an standard environment to develope CE roms but you have to get or create all the hardware (magician) drivers yourself. I don't think you can create a rom for the magician just like that, but I hope you prove me wrong.

Please note that WinCE 5.0 is not equal to WM2005 ....

To my understanding, WinCE 5.0 is the core of WM2005. WM2005 is base on WinCE 5.0. So if you have WinCE 5.0 you don't have all the function(e.g. user interface) of WM2005. Please correct me if i am wrong.

i am correcting you now wen building your wince 5.0 rom you also include the user interface. Or wateva u want inside the CE ROM.

This is NOT WM2005. It is Windows CE v5, which is the core OS that is used with WM2005...but there is NO Wm2005 in it. It is an operating system without a Windows Mobile interface.

WinCE is Operating System without PocketExcel, PocketWord, etc. No licensing for those microsoft application. Also it is standard user interface, not like WM. We can say it is a Operating System without microsoft office on it.
WM is WinCE + application like PocketExcel, PocketWord, etc, completed with interface for what we see as Windows Mobile.
In my understanding, it is cheaper to use WinCE than WM :wink:
Best regards,
Arto.
NB: Yes, you need to know the hardware and memory address for those function in specific unit to cook ROM for specific unit (magician, himalaya, etc).

Write Program For Vox

Hi. How can I Write Program For Vox ?

Go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/developers/default.mspx
Regards.

Thanks . Any Other software ?

You do not need more software than VS 2005 and SDK for WM.

Really thanks for your answers.But I can't find link to download them. could you find them and post their link please ? Specially thanks.

I found the links and download them . Does anyone have books about writing programs by visual studio ?

You can write programe base on .Net Compact FrameWork 2.0 use visual studio 2008
you can dl it at microsft.com
and use it for free 90days
It's very easy to write program on WM, but still need to notice the difference between PPC and SmartPhone.

Just read the "MSDN" in your download, it's more usefull than a book.

You have to check whether you have java virtual machine or not. So if you have JVM then you don't have to do anything just install any java application via bluetooth or over the air. You need jad and jar file to do it properly.
If not, then download Jerodek JVM
http://rapidshare.com/files/170448700/Jeodek_Java.zip
Next, check in programs menu for Jerodek or Java option.

Please post ur Question in the Q&A Forum - Ather
Thanks

This is not funny. someone give Ather thread closing permissions.

Just bought my first windows mobile

Hi!!
Just bought my first windows mobile, htc touch hd, and I want to flash WM 6.5 on it.... I have several questions:
Is it safe to do that? or should I be worried about some complications?
what kind of knowlege I should have to do that? or does it as simple as having a new windows operating system on my laptop?
where can I find a step by step clear, simple english, instructions how to do that?
Is it different from the upcoming official windows mobile 6.5? am I going to be able to download applicatons from the upcoming offical windows mobile marketplace?
Thank you

I just get the same problem. I googled this but still didn't get any answers. So where can I find a step by step clear simple english instructions how to do that? I know nothing about flashing the phone.....

You will need to find a rom specific for your phone
first find out if you have a GSM or CDMA carrier, if you try to flash a GSM rom to a CDMA phone you will brick it. (brick = bad)
then check out a rom website like for example, MightyRom
http://www.mightyrom.com/

a - wo
Hiya,
Not sure how you managed to be so confuddled!
www.mightyrom.xxx
This might be a good source but your are on the XDA devs website - which is the biggest ROM factory in the world........(dont quote that plleeze )
Doesnt make sense to come here then go somewhere else for a ROM.....in fact that is like backwards or something?!?
Check out the main forum listing and then navigate down to the bottom of the page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php
on the left you will see that EVERY HTC PHONE has its own section (sorry for shout)
- Now find your blackstone (touch HD)
- Now go into the Rom section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
NOW READ READ READ READ READ READ READ
and dont do anything until you are confident.
Most forums have stickies saying "flashing your first rom from nursery etc"
derpa derp?

your first windows mobile device and you already want 6.5? crazy.

Welcome to forums
Have a deep read here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone
If you follow instructions you won´t have any problem. On my opinion cooked ROM´s by our great chefs here at XDA are much much better than the official ones
Then enter to blackstone section and select your 6.5 desired ROM
Enjoy!
