I see alot of people mentioning this software but i am unable to even install it on my S710. I am aware that it is for pocketpc but is it possible to get it to run on a HTC S710?
Well, obviously it is not possible to run this app on smartphone. And the reason is that it is a ppc app.

hey guys (and girls where aplicable),
i got a question (a sorta dumb one). If a smartphone lik the iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger or the HTC Vox have windows mobile 6 standard does that mean they run regular windows mobile programs or smartphone versions? See the Cheeta/treo 750 has windows mobile standard ed. and is called a smartphone but it uses regular PPC programs, the other two mentioned before have the same wm6 but no touch screen. so i was wondering if that made a diference in the phones capabilities to use PPC Progs? I appreciate any answers as i am greatly puzzled and intregued buy this.
With WM6 they dispensed with the term "smartphone" in favour of WM 6 Standard. Too many non Windows Mobile phones were being called "smart phones" as well as PPC phones.
WM Standard has no support for touch screens and many PPC apps will not run on it.
WM Pro has touchscreens.
understanding versions...
so lemmie go over this... a ppc with a touch screen is said to run WM6 pro, a ppc without a touch screen is said to run wm6 standard the "smartphone" version. so what of the vox? it has all the capabilities of a full sized PPC without the touch screen so where would it and the ipaq 514 fit in? Because correct me if i'm wrong but dont they offer features like MS Office editing and production verus the others whose ability is limited to viewing or is it the WM6 platform that actually enables this?
You're right, its just a functionality of WM6. Any smartphone (i.e. non-Touch screen device) running WM6 has those same office capabilities and will be running WM6 Standard, not Professional.
As far as I know the two WM6 are one same core of the same OS but..
In the PPC version there is more advanced setup in the menus wich setup is locked in the Srtandard by default.
For example in the Standard there is no way to change the IP of the wi-fi manually.
And in the pocket pc there is some dll's, responsible for touchscreen operation .
yes but....
i do believe you might be correct on everything but the I.P setup for standard. i have an sda running wm6 and i can manually setup my wifi and change certain settings in the network config. Also the HP ipaq 514 that i've been researching also has the same features. see my big thing is i love he compact size of the smart phone but need the capabilities of the PPC. It wold be great if i could get the best of both. i know the O2 XDA stealth has that exact combo but they are hard to find and kinda pricey for thier age.
There are separate SDKs for Standard and Pro, so I think the differences run a little deeper.
well what to do?
well i guess my final questions then wuld be what kind of phone are:-
1/ O2's xda stealth
2/ HP's Ipaq 514
Hi
I have an HTC Touch HD with Swedish Windows Mobile 6.1. I very much want to use the PIM program called Pocket Informant. But when I try to install it, I am told that my platform is not supported
Is there any way that I can still go ahead and install it? Or is there a great chance that it will not work, even if I should not be able to install it?
I am quite annoyed that I cannot easily replace my Swedish OS license and installation with an English one, but that's another discussion....
I guess my question merely is; Is there a tweak that can be carried out, to run English Windows Mobile programs on non-English installations? I don't know Windows Mobile that well, so I have no idea whether this would actually be possible.
On Windows based PC's, this works. So I thought it might be the same on Windows Mobile devices?
So I was trying to get PocketGBA to work on my Windows Mobile 6.1 phone.
The CAB wouldn't install at all (I probably should have taken that as a hint) and Direct Installation always crashes. From what I can gather from the debug file, it is trying to allocate memory but failing every time. Finally, it just gives up.
Is there anyway to make it work or did it only run on WM5 and doesn't work on WM6?
If it is hopeless, then what other alternatives do I have?
Thank you for your time.
edit: I think...I figured it out...and it's because...I'm an idiot. I'm guessing I have a Windows Mobile 6.1 Smartphone...
Doh.
Doesn't seem like many options for Smartphones.
I dont know if any of you have heard of the program called Due Yesterday for Palm OS, but its a program that allows you to keep track of classroom assignments and schedules. I used this program extensively untill i upgraded to a windows mobile HTC Raphael. Now im stuck without this program and i was hoping someone knew of a similar program.
Ill let the link speak for itself about the program:
http://www.freewarepalm.com/database/dueyesterday.shtml
don't know of such an app, but you can run palm os apps on windows mobile with this http://www.styletap.com/
I tried it a while back and it worked fine.
hope this helps
This seems like a really neat application but is there anything for free?
Or how about an actual program that i can use? thanks.
As with ISiCK, I also used Due Yesterday on my Palm(s) before getting a Raphael and am interested in an equivalent application for Windows Mobile.
In short: *bump!*
I know this is an older thread but has anyone found anything close to Due Yesterday for Windows Mobile? I have it running with styletap but I'd like to be able to sync the information with my PC.
hello
can window phone 6 softwares b installed on windows 7 phone?
or can i install windows 6.5 on htc mozart??????
no and no...
Can't get to Native APIs with 3rd party apps, so not.
They don't even support .NET CF in WP7...
So, no...
And if your rom has all the drivers I suppose you can install WM 6.5 on it. I can believe it's installable on i.e. an HD7 due to the hardware similarities with the HD2, but it would be hard as hell to use. The button requirements are different and you'd have to do some modding to remap buttons to make the phone usable without ridiculous amounts of frustration...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
AFAIK this can't be done. Nobody has ever ported WM6.5 to a WP7 device, and I don't believe anyone is working on it either
It's possible, but it's just not worth it. People are trying to put WP7 on their HD2, not WP7 on their HD7. Most consider that a downgrade and will not even bother working on it. Not to mention the hardware is basically the same with a worse build so you aren't really gaining anything by doing that
