HI all,
I'm requesting if you anyone knows a free WEBCAM software where it can turn the KAISER into a webcam that can be used in Live messenger or skype etc......... I've searched on the internet but they aren't working on WM6, so i'm asking for help
Thanks!

I know that you stated you were looking for a 'free' solution and sadly I do not believe one exists. However, you can check out a non-freeware program called Webcamera Plus from Ateksoft. I'm sure it would work on the Kaiser.
It does work. I set up my Kaiser (Dutty's Touch ROM version 3.0) connected via USB to my OQO 02 (XP Pro Tablet) and used Skype. I only get about 4 frames per second. I don't know if it's the software or maybe the cable I'm using is USB 1.1. Both the front and back camera's work (finally, a use for the front camera in the USA!). My front camera seems to have a weird angle to get a full face shot. Sort of up and to the right. The resolution, as expected, is better on the back camera.
I guess I'll go through the struggle of setting up a bluetooth activesynch to see how that works...
any success would like to know how well it works before I buy it.
Gosh, with the bad video driver on the Kaiser, i would bet the results would suck big time............the reason i'm asking if the kaiser can do webcaming is because i'm on a 64-bit OS system and its hard to get webcams to work with correct drivers on my 64-bit windows xp....I'm hoping that if this works, then i can use it as webcam.....
I have Webcamera plus version 2 and it works great, I get 10-15 fps over wifi. no need of cables.
I am getting 1~2fps over the USB cable, any ideas why it could be so slow?, on the phone the pciture is far smoother, but on the PC is very slow

Hi there,
I was using Mapopolis GPS software ver 3.20 on my SX-56 and it was working fine with the GPS reciever being picked up on COM 1. Suddenly one fine day, the Mapopolis software would not work at all and the phone for some reason would not detect the reciever on COM 1. I re-booted, re-installed and eventually blew my ROM and thus the phone entirely trying to work the GPS but to no avail. I kept trying since when I connect the GPS reciever even now directly to my laptop, it still works fine so I assume there is nothing wrong with the GPS unit itself!
I have just bought a new T-Mobile WM 2003 unit and after installing mapopolis on it, it still is not working on the GPS and giving me the exact same problem. I have put it on "autodetect" and it goes in a loop on the COM Ports and starts from COM3, then COM8 and then COM9 then back all over again...it does not even start from COM1...when I remove "autodetect" and set it on COM 1, it keeps saying detecting and nothing happens, I've left it like that for more than an hour!
I'm just wondering why it was working before and not anymore? Any suggestion or ideas are more than welcome! Are any program trying to block the COM1? If so, how do I get rid of them or free the COM1? I'm stuck...
Thanks.
Try to deactivate the beam of IR port.
Or take a look if the Activesync doesn't use the com port.
It you're using a IR external Keyboard deactivate it...
Bye, M.
Re: COM Problem
Sir,
You are a king!!! Just saved me from blowing up yet another fantantic PDA!!! I don't know how to thank you, it was the IR port occupying the COM and it is working great now after I disabled it!!! Just a small question for you, is it possible to fix my old PDA which I totally messed up because of re-setting etc etc.? I have the problem posted on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11858
Thanks in advance.

tv tuner
Is it possible to use mda2 as a monitor to watch tv out of home, connecting it to an usb-tv tuner?
Re:
I doubt it since the USB-TV Tuner would require a USB port for a connect through and I do not know of PDA which have that, but then I may be wrong....
I need help fast! My 30 days is up with AT&T on Wed., and I have to determine if the USB port on the Fuze is fully functional or not. It charges and syncs fine, but refuses to connect to the Celio Redfly (yes, I'm posted on that forum as well). The Redfly doesn't recognize the connected device, telling me to enable Advanced Networking, which it is (which, BTW, makes Sync not work, but that's another issue!). I have talked to Celio support, and posted on the WMExperts forum, but no answers are forthcoming about this problem - I seem to be unique with it. I have tried numerous USB cables to rule out a bad cable. So my two questions are these:
1. If the Fuze syncs fine, is the port assumed to be fully functional (I know there are audio/video pins in there, so the answer likely is maybe, maybe not, and I don't have a video cable to test with)?
2. Is there a diagnostic that can be run on the USB port to verify its functionality?
I need to know before Wed. (12/11) which is my return date for an exchange of the Fuze if I think it has a problem. The Redfly is a dead brick to me until this is solved. If the Fuze turns out to be OK, then it's the Redfly or it's driver (running Fuze Beta .64) that is at fault and I need to determine whether to return it or hang on until somebody figures something out. All other Fuze owners are at least connecting - their issues are more with the Redfly functionality.
Tick tock!
Thanks in advance to anyone with tips, tests, or suggestions as to where to go from here (besides hell - been there and back).
Someone??? Anyone???
HELP!!! D-day is Thursday, and I don't really want to exchange if this is a setting issue. Celio has completely dropped the ball on support!

Hello, I have a Qtek 8300 (SP5m Tornado), which has its earpiece broken, so it is not useful anymore as a phone. However, the camera, processor, USB port and wifi are OK.
I was thinking on a possible reuse of it as a wireless IP Camera: just a USB power supply, and the phone transmits via wifi to the wifi router, the images from the camera. I was looking for a software to do this, and the closest is Ateksoft Webcamera plus, but it is not what I need, because it needs a PC with a client software.
Any ideas on how to do this ?
Or any ideas on how to reuse my Tornado for a different application ?
Thank you!
Yes, its possible. I'll try to power up my SDAII and I'll tell you the software you need. They have a limited trial but works cool. I'll post back as soon as I can get mine working. I believe last time I powered it up I had a white screen.
How can you break the earpiece?!
I guess it is just dirt on the connector between PBA and earpiece - open it up and get that cleaned
Regarding the WebCam: the only tool is "WebCamPlus" by Ateksoft:
http://www.ateksoft.com/webcamplus.html
You cannot do it without a PC driver as a webcam.
Still you can use the camera to take photos, but quality is so poor - would not do that.
Other use of the device:
load a WM6+ ROM with SDHC card support and use it as music player, it has a really good audio quality - PocketPlayer preferred!
use it as GPS logger with a BT mouse, it will log a whole day (8 hours) and only eat < 20% battery capacity
Hi All, has anyone had any success in getting android devices such as the MK808B to work with external GPS devices such as the Prolific PL2303? Desperately trying to find a way to support it so that I may use one to make a car PC. So if anyone can help / advise me how to install drivers and get it recognised in copilot I would be extremely grateful. Thanks
Dave

I did try this using my android phone and a few apps that share your phone GPS as a bluetooth GPS but couldnt get it recognized by copilot. Id definately be open to this if i can get it recognized in there. Currently im using an archos 80 G9 tablet as my car PC, but want to switch to this mini pc for better performance and a better mounting option for in the dash - so my aim is to get GPS and a HDMI / USB touchscreen (such as an egalax screen) working. Then its a go. Ill then probably turn my hand to application development (my day to day job) to come up with the best option user interface wise and will happily share all the information and software i develop with the community.
MK808B + CoPilot (GlobalSat BT-359)
I am able to use MK808B + CoPilot (GlobalSat BT-359) with the help of a mock GPS provider app (Blutooth GPS). GoogleMaps \ Sygic are both working perfect.
I am also looking for a HDMI/USB touch screen for it, any update on this?

Ok, got a copilot branded BT GPS device, and its recognised and seems to be working with some apps - but not the one i want the most, copilot. It just states its unable to register for GPS updates, which sucks!

I have one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Dual-Electron...p/B006M49G80/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=136138107
I use it w/out issue w/Google Maps, so I'll drop co-pilot on and see how it works out.

I contacted the makers of Co-pilot and they said they dont support external GPS receivers. I have both the bluetooth and USB receivers but I think for co-pilot to support them I'd need to get to be recognised as the inbuilt GPS receiver. Co-pilot tells me its unable to register for GPS requests - but other apps _seem_ to work, but currently all my testing is done on a PC monitor, so its hard to hit the road and see if its actually working. I currently have an archos G9 80 built into my Jag XK8 and im so pleased with the functionality - but not so much with the GPS support (can be hit and miss) and with the mounting. Prior to that i had a windows PC, but that was much worse of an installation.
Hello everyone!
I hope there isn't a topic already for this, but I searched and didn't find anything, mostly also because it's kind of difficult to describe my problem.
To begin with. I have one of those chinese car stereos that run WinCE 6 in my car. It's not the first one, I actually went through quite few of them to finally find one that suits me. I thought I did, and mostly it's true, but there is still one feature that bugs me a bit.
My stereo has two USB ports. One, mini-USB on front - for music/videos/pics, second, full size USB on the back - for 3G/WiFi adaptor. This is as described by the manufacturer/seller.
Now, obviously, many of us would think, that since it's "universal serial bus", it shouldn't matter what I put in which port. So the rear port should accept music on USB flash drive and front port should work with 3G modem. Right? Right? Wrooong!!!
For whatever reason, my stereo only accepts music in the front port, with annoying little cable that is to convert the mini-USB to full size, just bumping up and down as I drive. Also, since I have a built-in USB port, which I would like to use for this and plug it's connection to rear port on the stereo, bugs me a lot.
But no, the rear port only works with the 3G modem and seems to completely ignore any flash drive connected to it.
What's funny though is, that the front port actually works with the 3G modem too! So the front is a "2in1", but the rear is only designated for 3G/WiFi.
Since I don't want to let this just go and get used to it (+ my OCD is fighting heavilly with me on this, lol ), I started to look around to figure out what might cause this. I loaded Total Commander on the unit and plugged two flash drives to the stereo. Both with music files, both formatted the same. In totalcmd it showed them as USB (front) and USB1 (rear) (or something similar, the key part is the "1"). It always added the "1" to the rear one, even though it was connected alone, without the front one.
Now, this is where I believe the problem is. I think/hope/wish that the music application on the stereo only works when pointed to the "USB" (front) device. Since there is probably no way to decrypt and re-program the music app, I was thinking about renaming the USB connections, or, basically switching them for each other.
So to get (finally) to the bottom of my question, is there a way to switch the description/name/purpose of the USB ports in WinCE 6.0 platform, preferably of course in a way that it would stay like that even after restart?
Many many thanks for any help or pointing me to the right direction! Also please let me know if there is some detail that might help identifying the problem.
Today I installed an app called USB Device Info from the play store. What it shows is that it cannot connect because of SeLinux.. CLUE?? So I went ahead and looked on how to connect via USB with Linux. I downloaded Terminus from Play Store and was able to read the files. Previously, I read it's a 'read only' connection. I'm researching how to change the 'read only' to 'read and write', and also extract and find these files. I'm currently looking for my "extracted files".
