I'm interested in navigating the Windows Mobile file system using the command-line on Windows. Is there something similar to the /dev/... to gain access to a device's file system? (i know you linux guys are all laughing, fyi... to make it "worse" i'm using Vista).
Thanks,
Matt
it's a bit hard to know what your question is
do you need a pocketpc console app?'
do you have one but dont know how to change dir?
and what does the fact that your pc run vista have to do with anything?
guess a pocketpc console and using the free ms remote pda display program would work
if the free ms tools support vista that is
but to tell you the truth pocketpc and even vista was never really ment to be operated that way
one cant change regs or navigate regs without alot of typing
With an ActiveSync connection, I'd like to access the file system on my Windows Mobile phone via the command-line on my Windows PC. For instance, I currently navigate the file system on my Windows Mobile phone using Explorer on my Windows PC.
My issue lay with the fact that Windows Explorer apparently has to enumerate the contents of the /Windows/ directory and I have to wait five minutes to gain access to any file in that directory.
To my knowledge, a command-line interface will not enumerate the contents of a directory until you execute dir.
[edit]
I found this package of tools (cecopy.exe, cedel.exe, cedir.exe, ceexec.exe, cegetinfo.exe, cemkdir.exe, cereg.exe), but this isn't exactly what i was looking for.
[edit 2]
just found srego cecmd looks pretty good, but doesn't seem to work on Vista...

I want to share a folder on my PPC, which i could access on my PC through WiFi, with the simple windows sharing protocol - SMB/CIFS.
i.e: i want to be able to browse my PPC with the address: \\HTCUniversal\Storage Card\Music ....
I'm wondering, how could it be that there is no app/service that will provide this???
It seems like a really basic and simple request, but yet i've found no solution to this.
I found "Mocha FTP Server", but it doesn't quite do the job, because i have to run it manually everytime i want to browse my ppc, so its not that comfortable.
If only i could run such an app as a small service - it would be perfect.
Any ideas?
There are many free SMB implementations on the net under GNU/GPL license, maybe someone could port it to a windows mobile platform?
smb is known simply as "Microsoft Windows Network".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Message_Block
smb and it's server samba is just what linux work call what windows world call
"microsoft network"
use total commander to connect to shared drives you may have to add
the pda as a valid user on the shares though
thanx for your reply, but you must have misunderstood my question.
in a nutshell - I want a samba/SMB/ms windows network server on my ppc (NOT a client).
i want to access folders on my ppc, through my pc, using Wifi.
not the other way around...
doh! my bad
sure it's possible but preciously few of such server services have been implemented on wm that i know off
not sure if it's because lack of demand
lack of mem and cpu juice(i mean an arm 400Mhz cant hold any kind of cantle to an old 400Mhz p4 or amd cpu)
or if it's the fact that batt power and stablity and lack of a device which make everybody else time out due to power saving settings
maybe the people who would be poking at that bear are busy making linux useable on these pdas
More specifically, can I access the file system from a C# application on my PPC while connected with ActiveSync 4.5?
I figure since explorer can browse it under "Mobile Device"\"My Windows Mobile-Based Device"\ I should be able to as well, but so far no luck.
I read that you want to network file share your PPC to your network. Then it can be seen.

That would be awesome, then I could use a url like \\MyPPC\??
But I can't find any documentation on creating a share on my PPC (an AT&T Fuze, bythe way), just how to map to a network file share from a PPC.
There are utilities to backup your device, so certainly you can copy files across. I was hoping I just lack some knowledge of device naming of explorer extensions. "$\Mobile Device" doesn't work.
Hi,
I found some nice programs for Iphone (with ipa extension). Now how can I run that files on my PPC?
Thanks!
no, windows mobile doesnt have the right frameworks to support apple iphone software. you're missing cocoa touch, framework, and the objective c structure. unless you want to write an emulator, as of now you cannot. go buy an iphone for that.
Hi!
I have a issue.
I am helping a company to use android devices productively in there business.
The key function they need is to edit Word and Excel files from a windows fileserver using there android tablet and/or phones.
The problem is when we do this the tablet saves the updated dosument localy on the device, not on the server.
If you look at the document on the server nothing is saved.
If you look at the device you have a copy of the document where all the changes are saved.
Is there any way to make it to save the document directly on to the server?
We have used ES File explorer and OfficeSuite.
I dont think it has something to do with the apps.
Would we get a different result if we used a Linux fileserver instead? For example Ubuntu server?
Maybe it is linux and windows compability problems?
Thanks in advanced!

How can I convert an exe file to apk?

You can't. .exe is a Microsoft DOS / Windows executable. Android is a Linux based OS. The runtime environments aren't compatible so you can't just "convert" it.
Do you need to run a specific program under Android? May be there is a similar program you can use.
It is not possible.
Bad news. Android cannot be used like a windows emulator.
For someone who knows what an apk is, it's rather strange you didn't know this isn't possible. Like the other users have mentioned Android and Windows are completely different. Are you wanting Microsoft Office? Microsoft has released touch versions of Office for Android but it won't be completely full-fledged like what you get on Windows.
no you cant convert exe file to apk
these two files totally run on two different platforms/devices
the encoding is totally different
