Is there any desktop WM5 emulator??

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.

How to use FakeCursor?

Hello,
I am new to this forum and smartphone world. So sorry if my questions will be silly for you.
I need some GPS navigation in my phone (i-Mate SP5, WM5), so I decided to use TomTom. I installed (basically copied it to memory card ) TomTom 6, it is just for PDA with touchscreen, but it works in my i-Mate. But problem of course is that you can't use it properly without "mouse". For that I downloaded FakeCursor (and SPHelper later) but I cant make it work properly. I copied FakeCursor to Windows folder. I was trying to copy changed long_CAMERA.lnk to Windows folder so that I could load mouse with camera button. But I could not replace the file, unchecking "read-only" didn't make any difference.
And if I load FakeCursor from file manager I can only move it and thats it (or is it normal?) and can't "click" anything. How do I click using FakeCursor?
Using SPHelper is the same I did managed to get mouse in TomTom but again I couldn't click. All SPhelper menus works fine.
I think its is something very simple that I am missing.
Please help.
Thank You in advance for your answers.
Tomas

Can it be so that no one in this forum knows how to use fakecursor?

i don't use fakecursor... only sphelper
try to press 1 or 2 or 3 keys (instead of joystick click) on cursor-mode with SPHelper..

i also have a smartphone (wm5) and i need sphelper or fakecursor. can someone tell me where i can find it cracked?

no warez discussion here le

Fakecursor is freeware. It's just an executable file, which can be found in my ROM.

But SPHelper is a shareware, Nitro, do you use GPS with tornado ?

As a matter of fact, I do. I use Destinator for WM5/6 Smartphones (Greek Map) and TomTom 5.xx for Smartphones (European Map). Also I have Destinator 7 for PPC installed and control it using FakeCursor.
And for staying on-topic... FakeCursor emulates a "pen touch" on the screen. When it's enabled, you can't use the keyboard. To exit press Home and then Back to return to the previous app. It is better launching it using a hardware key shortcut (such as long Camera Key press). Remember than you can use FakeCursor only with applications that support a touch screen!

And actually clicking or tapping with FC... how is this done? I couldn't figure it out when I was playing with your ROM.

It's done the obvious way!!!

Well, I clicked the joystick, which seemed obvious, and it didn't do nothing.

interesting problem on tilt?

hello everyone, long time member of howardforums and just joined xda and find some very usefull info, thank you all. i ran into a small problem last night. i have a tilt , not flashed but i have installed the htc home screen and everything worked great. last night i tryed to install the touchflo program found in a few places in this forum and it didn't work but thats when the interesting stuff happen....after deleting all touchflo cab files and restarting the tilt every time at startup it gives me a warning " FTouchFlo.exe cannot be open, its either not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components can not be found. try reinstalling or restoring file." ????? and now the icon that used to be under the clock for favorite people that would send me their pics so i can just one touch dial is GONE? tryed installing the cab for the htc homescreen again but the same....there is a music short cut that lets me launch the music player that wasn't there before? i downloaded the htc home plugin customisor and even when i set for 6 icons on the bottom of the clock it still just gives me 5?
at the end of the day i would like to have the touchflo program but its not a big deal if i dont, i would however really like to have the pic dialer back on my screen as its really convinient to dial my fav people with it.thanks in advance

Keys are in the registry. To access and change the registry you need a registry viewer/editor. There are many but for simple "everyday" use this is a good one:

Be careful though delete the wrong things and you'll end up needing a hard reset.

PHM downloads as a .MSI windows installer. So it will not install properly unless you have your device connected via active sync when you run the downloaded file. So connect your device via usb cable. Let active sync connect and update. Then while still connected run the installer download. During the process a message will pop up on your device. If a choice is offered it will be ok to install to storage card if you have one.
Cheers for now.

thanks guys , can anyone tell me how to delete .exe files? i still get warnings at start up that touchflo.exe and bio-something-.exe can not run because some files are missing.....thanks

LogMeIn + Windows Mobile 6.5 / 6.1.4 Problems

Hello Guys,
I recently contacted the LogMeIn Mobile support team and there are lots of people here which has problems using Logmein with your phone. Here is their reply:
--
Hello,
You can use a Windows Mobile device to connect to your LogMeIn computer.
Device requirements:
Windows Mobile 5/6/6.1
Touch Screen
ARM CPU
You must use Pocket Internet Explorer as third party browsers are not compatible with the LogMeIn Remote Control plug-in. You must also use the generic Windows Mobile keyboard, as specialized software keyboards may not transmit characters correctly.
Successfully tested devices:
Model
Also Known As
HTC Apache
PPC-6700, XV6700
HTC Mogul
PPC-6800, XV6800, P4000
HTC Touch
XV6900, P3450
HTC Touch Diamond
PPC-6950

Samsung Omnia i910
Samsung Saga SCH-i770
Samsung SCH-i760
Samsung SGH-i830
Note: If you're unable to use your HTC Touch Pro's keyboard during a remote control session, this is due to a key mapping problem brought upon by the device's eT9 text prediction software. While we do not directly support this, you can find other users' best practices and workarounds on the LogMeIn Community http://community.logmein.com.
Also, we have discovered an issue when connecting to a LogMeIn computer using a mobile device running Windows Mobile 6.1.4 / 6.5 and IE6 Mobile. Currently, it is NOT possible to connect with these devices due to incompatibility with the plug-in.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

LogMeIN IE6/8 workaround
I have found a work around there is an ap called I.E. Toggle I got from PPCGeeks.com that allows you to switch back to Pocket IE from IE6. This is a great tool and use it just for this, best of all you dont need to soft reset it does it on the fly.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=65154

No joy in Win Mobile 6.5
I had logmein working nicely in win mobile 6.1 using IE Toggle, unfortunately having upgraded to 6.5 it no longer works.
When I log into logmein using PIE it directs me to download and install the RACtrlCE plugin but when I go to the link it downloads RACtrlCE.tsk (which does nothing useful) rather than RACtrlCE.cab like it used to. I tried installing it from a cab I had but that didn't work either so after searching around I ended up here. I guess logmein and 6.5 is still a no go, I have contacted logmein support to ask if they have an eta on a fix.
I really wish they'd just do a stand alone app for windows mobile, it would be so much easier.

I was actaully able to run logmein using IE toggle and a cooked rom on my TP2 using WM 6.5.1 (one of the *energy* roms). Although I just re-flashed to another rom that was more stable overall running WM 6.5 and now encounter the same problem described above. I am directed to the .tsk instead of .cab for the plugin, which does nothing...

wow. thank you. logmein finally works on my samsung saga. i am however very dissapointed in the support from logmein. i had an email chain with their support dept about the issue with windows mobile 6.1 . First they said it works, then i finally got them to achnoledge that logmein has an issue with wm 6.1 . After that they would not even respond to my emails. I would ask them when they expected a fix and no answer at all.
i wish there was an alternative to logmein other than rdp or others that require port forwarding .

I've now found that if you rename the downloaded RACtrlCE.tsk file to RACtrlCE.cab it will install and then logmein will work using IE toggle. Hope that helps you out.

I got logmein to work on my TP2 WM65. I installed PIE
Rebooted the device.
Then installed IE Toggle
Launched IE Toggle and selected Pocket IE and went to logmein
Logged in installed the plug in and it worked.
Sorry if this was posted previously.

Spoke to soon, there is an issue with it that I could not fix. After loading these cabs Logmein did indeed work.
However the changes caused my TP2 to not be able to display text conversations. You click on a text message and it would display the keyboard and say one conversation selected but you were still seeing the default list of texts, you couldn't see what you were typing? SMS messaging still worked but you couldn't use the default conversations lists.
I have since removed all the cabs for logmein and SMS messages are displaying perfectly again?

This cab breaks the text messaging, it seems: XDA WM 6.1 P.I.E For WM6.CAB.
I'm able to get everything working if I don't install that cab. My only issue is that the key mapping with KforTouchPro_v1.0.0.3.CAB (which I believe is needed also) isn't quite perfect, from what I can tell.

SOLUTION - this works
Heres a solution for those of you who have been finding that logmein wants to download RACtrlCE.cab file to install on your phone and that this doesnt seem to do anything, it wont install. Heres why. Youll love this, its actually quite simple.
When the file downloads it says its a cab file, which should by all rights install, however on my phone it brings up the "Windows Mobile Today" which allows you to select backgrounds/screensavers for your mobile. Why? Its because when it saved the file it put a hidden .tsk on the end a on windows mobile file name extensions like .tsk .jpg .avi etc are hidden from you so all you get is the name of the file but not its .jpg bit so "john.jpg" becomes just "john"... its named the file RACtrlCE.cab.tsk but your mobile doesnt show you this file name is says its a .cab so this is why it doesnt fire up.
So what you need to do is rename the RACtrlCE.cab.tsk back to RACtrlCE.cab and it will run.
2 WAYS TO DO THIS....
Sync your device on your pc or mac and use "explore" to get in to your mobile folders from your computer and find RACtrlCE.cab.tsk and on a PC it will show the needed .tsk bit
**(provided your PC views mode isnt set to hide filetypes - if it is go to windows explorer on pc, tools menu at the top of screen, folder options, and untick "hide extensions for known file types". If your on Win7 youl find the folder options in CONTROL PANEL... does the same thing)**
Right so now you can see your RACtrlCE.cab.tsk and youve renamed it RACtrlCE.cab unhook the phone from pc and go to the folder where RACtrlCE.cab is and click it and hey presto, it installs perfectly.
Now the next bit is to use the IE6 toggle software if your getting problems and this will allow you to switch from IE6mobile to PocketIE6 which can run the logmein application. (IE6 toggle page is listed earlier in this same thread
METHOD2:
Oh yes if you want to do this renaming of the file on your phone without PC connected, "File Explorer" wont show you the .tsk bit on the end, its hidden and always will be because "file explorer" is dumbed down. What you need is a tool called "total commander" which I think is free (?). Install this and its a powerful file explorer which does show you the .tsk bit which you can easily rename to just .cab and then you can double click the file RACtrlCE.cab in total commander and hey presto the .cab installs.
Hopefully this fix will blow you away.
This was done on a HTC Touch HD2 phone with original T-Mobile ROM unlocked and put on to the latest generic HTC official ROM.
