WM6 Update

Hey guys whats up, does anybody know any info on the stauts on WM6? Any word for the 750? I just cant wait for it to come out.

I've heard no earlier than June, although nothing says that it can't take a little longer than that.

Update
I'd bet on late summer, early fall

No one knows for sure.. ..there is some dude in Spain that said in an interview that the update will be available in june. But there isn't any info about wich carier, or where it will be released. Guess they keep us left in the dark about this one

Palm Insider says June and has pictures. I doubt it will be on time, something will keep it from being released on time.

I bought the Treo 750 based soley on the fact that Palm annouced the Windows Mobile 6 update was official!
Been using WM6 on my wizard for 3 months now. Always wanted a Treo 750, but couldn't bear to go back to WM5.
Hope this is released sooner rather than later!

I felt the same way, but I really like a lot of the usability enhancements Palm made. I didn't want to move away from WM6, but Palm has made the transition easier to accept. I just can't wait until WM6 is released - that will make it all better!

speaking of enhancements, I very much like the threaded messaging feature on the Treo 750. Hope that remains intact on WM6 for the Treo?!

I hope they integrate it into the actual messaging app, so I don't have to waste a Start Menu item and/or key shortcut.

Sorry richy, but I wouldn't expect any major differences between the WM5 and WM6 builds. The majority of the enhancements belong to WM6.
Why does the messaging app take up more space or more key shortcuts than the pocket outlook inbox? (In the settings menu you can specify what shows up in the start menu)

Hope this upgrade eliminate those stupid %#@&!(@#^ bug(S)...
I can wait for june or july... but it must be bug free ^^

I harldy think it's gonna be bug free, but I've owned a few other WM devices Prophet, Wizard, Tornado, Typhoon and Voyager by HTC and I must say that the Treo is by far the most stable, although it's not the fastest or the most tweakeable device. This is probably due to the business customer they are aiming at
Things that will remain:
- annoying E-mail on the left soft button
- SMS -> left softkey DELETE instead of NEW. Lucky for us Treo users we have our threaded SMS
The thing I'm looking for is the extra speed with WM6 on the Treo, seen in it action and it sure looks promissing!

Well I don't have that many, but i'm using PDA that many, i;m a second hand PDA seller ^^ so i change my PDA a lot.

Stable... dunno bout that, I'm using Pocket Breeze and Handy Switcher that always running in the background. My Treo kindda in love with hang
not the fastest n tweakable... yes, can not agree more with that. That's what i afraid from WM06, it more resources hog and not tweakable (My thought)

Let's cross our fingers and hope for the best. coz this the the PDA that i love so much... My first Treo ^^

I think the fact that the WM6 update for the Blackjack was leaked is a great sign for the 750 because they were supposed to be released all around the same time. I was very amazed that AT&T didn't pull it down from the forums on their website.

I've watched a video about WM6 on the Treo and it's much more faster than WM5 if you ask me! Can't wait to gain a few more % off extra speed on the OS!

I don't think you can change the left softkey to just one function!? You will always have that anoying E-mail app under the left soft key.

We mean the same thing. You can add an extra application, but you can't get rid of the e-mail!

I just install the WM5new button and assign it to the left soft key. Now I can select to send new SMS, MMS, email, Word doc, etc...
Works pretty good.`

Xda Developers Palringo Group

Do we have one already? If not I've created xda-developers on Palringo so we can get together and discuss all things HTC.
http://www.palringo.com/
Once you're in with your client of choice go to "Groups" and "Join a Group" then type in "xda-developers" to join and start chatting.
If you're on your mobile and don't have a good data tarif you might want to use wifi; photo-spam will ensue!
Damn I'm addicted to this app!

Palringo is a great app.
I'm there too and I'm inviting anyone to signup!

Wow, not a very good turnout!
Come on guys, pretty much everyone here has a device capable of running Palringo!

I installed Palringo but it will NOT uninstall properly, and now i receive an error each time I boot up my Hermes

I've never had the inclination to uninstall it, but that's a bit irritating.
I imagine the error is Palringo attempting to run at startup? In which case you can manually go into the start up items folder of your device and remove the shortcut.
The folder path is \Windows\StartUp

not been in here for ages, but hanging in the palringo groups is pretty good, what did I do before Palringo ?

dont use it but will check it out if its got anything to do wit my ppc.
cheers

PTT just seems to send a WAV. Can it not do proper PTT even Palringo to Palringo?

Palringo is the second most-used app on my phone (Opera Mini is #1). The recent update that adds the "chat" menu is a huge improvement, since I can actually have multiple IM windows open now. I don't like the fact that my connections are proxied through palringo servers, but it's still the best free IM app I've found.
BTW, even the JavaME version works on the Kaiser in JBED. Don't know why anyone with a Kaiser would want to use it, but it's still cool. I used the Samsung version.
I just joined the group, so I might bug some of you just to try out the PTT and other features I've never used before.

well used app. just how can we get it to work without explorer first

I'd like to know if is possible to change the picture of exibition in MSN
How can I do it?

palringo wont stay open
ive been using palringo for a while now and i like it but recently its been acting odd. when i flash a new rom and i open palringo its all good. after it updates the software, palringo wont stay open. i open it and as fast as it opens, it closes.
anyone else?

is this really the main room? or is there a bigger one?

palringo is the best multi server IM App??? what do you guys think?

Or if there is a betther one please let me know, ok?

Manila 2D and Easy Contact

Hi there,
I'm using Manila 2D and Easy Contact. Before, I was using iContact, and if I clicked on "All People" in the M2D-Tab, there comes up iContact. But with Easy Contact, there comes the normal Outlook-Contacts of WM... Any idea?
Thx,
MCXSC

Well, this isn't really an answer to your question (I think this is just a good time to throw it out there), but it would be nice if there was a way to set default programs, like on a PC.
Then problems like this might be non-existent.

Actually you can, using programs like SKTools, or I believe Schap's Advanced Configuration.

Try checking your settings in easy contact as i now use easy contact and it launches from all people and from contacts in my dialler it has fully replaced the old wm contacts

Facebook Chat on HD2

This one goes to all the windows phone newcomers who are looking for a way to use facebook chat on their new HTC LEO / HD2, which lacks from both native winmo facebook app, and HTC Sense facebook integration.
The software name is FIM (Facebook Instant Messenger) and beside the fb chat it integrates many of the core facebook features like status feed, notifications, photo post, and pretty much everything else via Facebook's mobile site.
Most important is that the software is finger friendly and I'm using it myself on HD2, so later I will post a video of the software on HD2 for those who still consider buying this awesome device.
You can find the rest of the details here
You can also download it directly on your device by navigating to http://get.mosko.mobi

will give it a go

Good job

excellent app, congrats

fantastic app! best facebook app ive used on the HD2 yet! thank you!!!

does not work on 3G -1

How much is this likely to kill the battery if it was left running in the background?
I'm fairly sure it was Palringo that gave me my battery issues when I first got the HD2.

While we're talking about Facebook app on HD2, how come i can't see my thumbs of my uploaded pictures? Is this a setting somewhere or just a bug?

Thank you very much, been looking for exactly this.......

I am trying to dl this, but it looks like the website is down?

same here, seems broken? anyone got the cab?

great ap though it does drain the battery got a percentage icon running and you can see it counting down

Site seems to be working again!

Hi, excellent app! love it. BUT......
...95% of the time when I open fim and try to sign in it fails to connect and pops up with the message "Failed using the internet connection. Try to restart your data connection". This is on my HD2 which I've only had for a few days and it's also my first winmo so I'm a complete noob. It doesnt matter how many times I turn on/off wifi it makes no difference and I get the same error both on my wifi at home and at work so I'm a bit baffled - especially as it does occasionally work first try.
If anyone can point me in the direction of where I'm going wrong I will be eternally grateful lol.
Cheers,
Matt

Thanks a lot for this, it's a damn shame the official Facebook app totally sucks compared to the iPhone version which allows for so much more. It's small things like this that make the whole device user experience suck. It's not HTC's fault.

Hi all, +1 for the same problem. but i'm not a complete noob and not in wifi.
edit: I may have found the solution "Incorrect Email/Password Combination": but you are positively sure you entered everything correctly? well, if you have special characters in your email or password replace them. only numbers, English letters and of course @ at the email allowed, also keep in mind that facebook passwords are case sensitive."

Throttle calendar on TouchFLO - or any other better calendar

I need to organize my life on my mega... so I have the need to check many times the calendar.
I've tried the ThrottleLauncher and I see that I can put a widget of the calendar, that I can use to check the all month (I can see witch days are used).
But I think TouchFLO runs faster than Throttle, so I prefer to use it. It would be superb to have a calendar on it (for instance if I can put it instead of internet tab).
Do you know any solution that can help me?
Thanks!

I see that no one have an answer to me...
So, what about a better calendar? Any one knows a way to change to another calendar?
The problem of this one that comes with WM is that when is showing the all month don't have the days with appointments to the all day (like birthdays) marked with any symbol, so I have to check them all.
Some help please...

I'am looking for too
