Is there any desktop WM5 emulator?? - General Topics

There are certain good programs that I would like to use, but I have a Treo 750 and they need 320x240 resolution in order to work. I was wondering if someone knows of a WM5 emulator that I could run on desktop and install those programs on that and run them right on my PC screen....
Any body???

Hi,
So, you want a WM5/6 emulator on Windows XP/Vista, right?
If so, Microsoft has a free one
Google for "microsoft device emulator". Download the 2.0 final version not the 1.0 or the 2.0 beta.
You will need to download the WM5 image as well from them.
Thanks.

Thanks buddy for guiding... I downloaded the emulator from Microsoft... I searched for Emulator images and I got result for WM5.0 also,,, but on the given list of possible download files, there is no English version. Could you please tell which one should I download...
Thanks for directing me....

Microsoft... I downloaded all through Microsoft....
There are many guides available teaching how to setup and use the Device Emulator.
As far as I can remember, the name of the image is efp.msi or similar.

yeah this is good, and if you want to see your connected device as it looks on your device and use it on your pc as if you were doing so on your pocket pc, use 'my mobiler' its freeware and easily available

Thanks for leading me this far. I got emulator to load up and all is going fine except I cant figure out how to transfer cab files to the emulator to install and how to make internet to work on the emulator. I want to test my website how it loads on the PDA's and use some softwares......

I hope you managed to transfer cab (& other) files to the emulator.
If you have not succeeded do the following:
1. Install Activesync (4.x) on PC where Emulator is running.
2. Configure ActiveSync on PC to use DMA for syncing.
3. Configure ActiveSync on Emulator to use DMA (it should be DMA anyways).
4. Open Device Emulator Manager.
5. Start the Image.
6. In the device manager click refresh if you don't see the emulated device.
7. Right click on the emulated device Emulator Device Manager and click cradle.
8. This will simulate cradling the device.
9. Now ActiveSync on both sides should be connected and then you could explore the emulated directories from activesync.
~Cheers

Problems accessing logMeIn via pocket pc

Hi I am having a problem accessing my pc from my pocket pc XDA 2i. I can access fine from a "normal" pc with no problems. From the XDA I can log in, then pick the remote pc from the my computers list, then enter my password and username, but the next page which would normally be the desk top, is a page showing the logmein free logo the name of the remote pc, a copyright notice, and an option to end the remote session. I cannot get any further than that !............hope you can help...........Thank you.
P.S. I am running NetFront 3.3 browser

Try it from Pocket Internet Explorer.
Hi, I have tried it with Internet Explorer, and I get the same result
I have e-mailed LogMeIn support 7 days ago but still no answer
I've tried as well on my treo 750 and am having the same problem. I thought I read somewhere that the current version of logmein is not compatible with WM5. It works great between my computer at work and home though.

It's comptible with WM5 as is also pointed out in the Remote Desktop Access Bible ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288506 ).
I've tried everything and cannot seem to get logmein to work. I log in to the website and then enter the login and password for my desktop computer and all I get is a screen showing the version of window I am using along with some memory usage bars. I can restart or my computer remotely, but that is all I seem to be allowed to do. As I mentioned before I don't have any problems accessing my computer from other desktop computers. One thing I have found is Z2 remote access. It's a bit slow, but works pretty well. The only thing is that it is not free, but it is only a one time fee for the software.
I'm thinking that this might me a browser issue. At least for me. If I use minimo I can at least get to the page that says remote control and end remote session. However when i click on it ends up going to a blank screen with nothing there. Can anyone who has this working tell me what their registry setting are for PIE, as far as showing it to be a PPC app rather than IE5. I think that I've modified it a few time and don't know what the default settings ar.
Hi There is no line saying "Remote Control" unfortunatley
Hi I tried modifying the settings, now its gone very strange, when I select my computer I know get connected to Remotely Anywhere, then a page showing text saying Windows XP, cpu load (No percent shown), Memory load ( no persent shown), Main menu, Reboot, end remote session. But I dont have a remotely anywhere account....very weird
Hey 600bhp. You might want to check on the logmein.com forums. There are two threads. One is titled " Problems accessing via pocket pc" and the other is " Why is Pocket PC no longer supported?" It would seem that logmein does not support ppc's for some reason if you downloaded it after 02/20. logmein is aware of the problem and apparently working on it.
LogMeIn Cab File for Pocket PC
I have been having a lot of the same issues. I have a PRO account so I called technical support. They sent me the following file. I've been connecting like a champ ever since. I use the bleeding edge beta version on my PC. This file also works with the regular version.

Yep that's the cab mine downloaded yesterday - unless it's been modified?
Anyway if it's the same then I agree works perfectly.

Are you TREO 750 owners still having issues? I'd like to know as I was
thinking of trying the 750 but need LMI for sure!
I know one this for sure the OPERA browser on PPC (WM5) will just go in loops, so LMI is the only thing I use IE for on my WM5 device(s).
Having have said that if the IE is somehow custom on the Treo 750? Could that be it??

I have a Treo 750 with the official ATT WM6 rom. I cant get logme in to work either. Here's what happens.
1) I visit http://logmein.com via pocket IE
2) I get redirected to http://secure.logmein.com/pda
3) I log in with my email address and password
4) I'm presented with "My Computers" and I click on a hyper link of one.
5) I'm asked to download RACtrlCE.cab
6) I save and install to main memory
7) I click the continue link on IE
8) I'm asked to log in again
9) I'm presented with "My Computers" again
10) I pick one, I'm asked to log in again!!!
11) I see "My Computers" again (endless loop)
What's wrong??
Gotomypc worked great when I used to have a free account through my work. Why doesnt logmein work on my pda?
update
I uninsatlled the RACtrlCE.cab via remove programs
I installed the ractrlce.cab from page two of this thread
I tested logmein.com on my treo. When it asked to download and insatll RACtrlCE.cab I clicked cancel to force it to use the other package. (no luck) Ok so I let it upgrade. It uninstalled ractrlce and installed the one directly from logmein once again.
It seems I can get further now for some reason but I'm still not connecting. Here's what I see now. I get redirected to the following url and the page has the following info:
http://asterisk.app53.logmein.com

Software touch screen on Vox

Is possible to install and use software for touch screen on our VOX?
i bought a gps reciver and include navigation software, but for touch screen ...
can work on it?
If you can get it to install, FakeCursor of SPHelper will give you a cursor you can nagivate and click with.

but this will make Vox able to install software for pocket pc with touch screen too? cz now is not allowed without this kind of software
Some programs have an option checked in their cabs to prevent them from being installed on smartphones. I suppose in theses cases the developer has a good reason to do it because some ppc program scan't even be launched on smartphones. But it's true a lot of them work good and sometimes you don't even need the help of a fake cursor program, you can navigate the program with the d-pad.
mean have to arrange cab file? how to do? and if software must install whith activ sync?
Give me the cab you are looking to install and I'll have a look at it.
sorry but i dunno how to send you this software. This software is Garmin Que. It's GPS navigation software for windows mobile Pocket PC. It's store somewhere on a PC and have to install from that autostart CD with Active sync.

dweller .exe installer

i'm sure this is a repost as this was quite a popular application i used back in the hey day of pocket pc's, it still works on my 6.0 dash and shadow fine...
this program is to install programs that are in the form of .exe directly to your phone instead of having to do it connected to a computer... basically making a .cab file uncessary, but cabs are still more efficient

My mobiler on linux, or linux equivalent.

Does anyone know of such a thing? My mobiler and my XV6700 are one of the only things keeping me from nuking my windows drive and just going 100% linux. I have yet to get it running and was wondering if there was some equivalent.
If such a thing could be done, I would gladly buy it
I just found this through Google...
http://www.pcs.uk.com/nsm/remote_control.htm
It's a cross-platform (PC, Mac, Linux) app that includes PPC support. I just downloaded it, haven't tried it out though... too late, and am moving tomorrow, so it'll be a few days before I can get to it.
I'm using without problem MyMobiler (and MyExplorer) in linux using Wine, and the pocketpc connected to my wifi.

The drag&drop or copy&paste dos not function from a nautilus window to the mexplorer window: you have to use the two panel in mexplorer.

Have you started it manually in the phone?
I located the application under "Programs" - and I've started it... Though - is it supposed to look close to the Windows application...?
Like with options of "Connect" and "Connect IP" ?
(Though, I'm unable to use the Connect IP function on the phone - since it does not display my keyboard...)

Runs great here too on a Ubuntu 8.10 laptop!
Created CAB for phone install.
I did install in wine too, but I'm not sure how well it worked out.
I eventually went and downloaded the ZIP file from MyMoblier website, and that is what I'm using now. Running MyMobiler.exe and MExplorer.exe in wine are working great.
Only 2 problems I have are... MyMobiler complains about tray icons to debug output. And MyMobiler will not install the software "to" the phone. I guess this was supposed to be done during ActiveSync during the initial installation to the PC.
So to fix problem #2 I created a cab for the files on the phone that MyMobiler needs. I could not get an attachment to post in this reply, so I created a new thread (thread #725114) that has the CAB file attached

Here are the steps i used 2 make MyMobiler work thru usb on ubuntu maverick using WINE.
Download MyMobiler V1.25....Unzip & copy the folder onto ur desktop or any location on ur ubuntu partition..open d folder, ryt click the MyMobiler.exe and select properties...Got to d "Permissions" tab n tick the execute box, then close...
Now run MyMobiler from the start menu on your phone & click connect...it should close but no worries as its working in d background..Connect your phone to your pc, ur network should report Auto eth3 connected...
Now right-click the MyMobiler.exe on ur pc n select "open with wine....". Notice the MyMobiler icon appear in ur taskbar above, right-click dat and select connect ip, click connect in d window dat appears n it should close.
Right-click the MyMobiler icon again n select "Open Mobiler"......Voila!!
Subsequent connections should auto-connect when u just run MyMobiler from your pc..
Hope this helps those out there...

[Q] Shield Controller Not Detected by PC

Hey Everyone,
I thought about posting this into the mobile kepler thread because thats where I started from. However, no one else running mobile kepler seems to have this issue.
I have a macbook pro running windows 8 in boot camp. I installed steam (beta client enabled), geforce experience and the latest beta graphics drivers. Games work great while playing on the laptop (burnout, GTA 4 and Half Life). The registry hack to skip mobile GPU check works to enable streaming to the shield. When go into shield streaming on the shield, it sees the laptop and games. I can pick Steam and it changes the resolution on the laptop and steam opens and goes into big picture mode.
Sound and video stream to the shield fine. But I can't control anything with the shield. I can control anything with the touchscreen or with the controller. If i go into settings in big picture mode (with the mouse on the computer), I can click on Controllers and it says none detected. This is the case in every game as well. Sound and video make it to the shield without issue, but I can't control anything.
I have tried restarting, reinstalling geforce experience, trying non-beta graphics drivers, etc. Nothing seems to work. I had also installed Splashtop streamer (just because I use that product on every machine I have) and I thought that might be conflicting with things. But uninstalling it did not help.
Has anyone experience this? Anything I can try to get it to work?
There are other people reporting similar issues on the GeForce forums. There are two issues that I've seen.
1. SecureBoot incompatibility - seems unlikely for you since the Mac's EFI version doesn't support it.
2. Short file name issue
The way that NVIDIA gets their input DLL loaded into every process is using a registry value that only supports short file names. If short file names are disabled for some reason, it won't be able to load the DLL and the controller won't work.
There's more info in the forum links from this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44678873&postcount=40
Thanks for your reply. I did some research after posting and found those two items you mentioned. Mine Mac is booting in Legacy mode so thats not the issue. I tried the short name recommendation which was to change 8dot3name to 0 (mine was originally set at 2) and then uninstall geforce experience and drivers, delete the Nvidia folder from both program files folders and then restart and reinstall. That hasn't solved the problem. I also tried changing it back to 2 and and doing the same with no success.
Supposedly NVIDIA is testing a fix internally and it should be out this month. I'm just worried that my issue has something to do with boot camp. I have seen others with MacBook pros on here getting this to work and I don't really see what the difference is between their setup and mine that is causing this to not work.
Does windows keep logs of errors of things it couldn't load? I imagine if the registry was telling windows to start something but it couldn't find it on the disk (due to short names) it would throw an error right? (sorry, I'm mostly a mac guy so I don't know what the PC equivalent to Console.app is)

is console.app the terminal? If so on windows its cmd (hold windows key + R to open the run dialog, enter cmd, OK) but windows cmd is vastly inferior to the mac terminal in my opinion (I am a windows guy, just saying, the windows command line isnt as good as the one on UNIX like systems).
The windows event log can be opened from control panel. http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/wi...ack-down-issues-that-cause-slower-boot-times/.
Console looks to be equivalent event viewer. Thanks for the suggestion. I should be able to inspect it tonight and look for errors loading the rxinput dll file.
Wow. What an annoying issue. So the problem was that my Program Files folders don't have short name. On top of that when I try to give them short names with admin prompt and fsutil file setshortname it says permission is denied. I'm assuming this is because the Programs files folders are super super system folders.
I tried using %PROGRAMFILES% in the registry entries for rxinput.dll but that didn't work either. So I found the jankiest workaround ever. I copied the dll to the C drive root and then linked the registry to that file. (I actually copied the both dll files. one is under Program Files X86 and on under regular)
Now it works!!!!!
Jankiest workarund ever... but it works.

Wow, bit of an odd one. Good that you got it sorted though :good:
With windows you often have to take "but it works" as the correct solution There probably is a better way in this case (taking ownership of program files and then trying to make the changes you require first before resetting the ownership is what I would have looked at doing) but if it works now your probably best to just leave it rather than tempting the computer to say no again
