how many WM6.1 Roms there is ?
Is there only 2 Version for Treo 750 right now the "Normal" and "Light" ?
oh and isn't WM6.1 ment to have carousel interface ?
((and wasn't it ment to have a feature to manege all the data (eg. Contacts, E-mail) from web service, so like if u lost ur fone u cen wipe it remoutly (that was a rumer online b4 WM6.0 ware out)))
I think those features are for the standard smart phone edition not the Pocket PC.
WM 6 and WM6.1 both have the remote wipe feature, but this can only be performed if your device is conncected to an Exchange 2007 (or later) server.
The new interface has only been shown on standard devices and thats where most of the focus has been because it is difficult to navigate around some WM standard devices, but you will see it come to WM Pro devices

i have the 8125(mda) and i just got the SP5M(SDA), i have a whole bunch of programs for 8125(mda). Can i use the same programs on the sda????
for example: 1) spb pocket plus
2) microsoft voice command
3)omap clock
4)nesterj
and i would like to know, what is the story, what program do i look for? can i use programs for "windows mobile pocket pc" on "for smartphone". or will the sda blow up??
Unfortunately you can't. Your 8125 is based a Pocket PC based version of WM5, and the SP5M is based on the smartphone version of WM5. The two OS's are very different in how they operate, and for this reason the software is not interchangable.
The software for the SP5M must be made for the "Smartphone edition of WM5", smartphone being the key word.
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
Has anyone looked into getting MyFaves ported to work with WM 6.1 phones? It would be amazing if this could be made available in the Sliding Panel interface. If I can be of any help, point me in the proper direction. I have a Tornado and Startrek with WM 6.1 on them and can test on both. I'm waiting until this is all working before I put 6.1 on my Shadow.

Not sure if you've seen it, but some of the ROM cookers (like for the DASH) have included a simple photo dialer in their roms that fit inside a sliding panel. It doesn't do all the MyFaves stuff like show birthdays, manage the five, etc. but it does let you call or SMS the five, each in his own slide.
(Just for clarification)
Chome Configurator also lets you add this dialer to an existing rom that doesn't have it,for photo contact dialing/sms.
what we need to wait for is t-mobile to offer a wm 6.1 phone and rip the myfaves from it and then put it on our custom 6.1 roms
untill then we are stuck without a full myfaves on custom roms
Is there anyway to pull IE from WM6.1 standard (smartphone) to run on a WM6 or WM5 standard device? Similar to how ppl have pulled office 6.1 to run on wm5?
Thanks
So you are asking for the smartphone version for your professional device, correct?
No. I have a WM 6 standard device.
WM 6.1 standard is already out, and it has a newer version of IE mobile.
Is it possible to get the IE from WM 6.1 standard to run on WM 6 standard (or even WM 5 standard/smartphone).
We're all in standard/smartphone version right now.
I assume something similar can be done for the pro/touch screen devices as well, but I'm not asking about that.
Thanks
PS. I'm well aware that other browsers exist, such as opera. I'm specifically curious about getting the latest IE on older devices, similar to how we can run new mobile office apps on older devices.

hi all
well, im delving back into the Smartphone scene once more after my original Tornado device got stolen (i was the original developer of WM6 for it if you all remember along with philip!)
I've purchased my shiny new Blackjack II and its on its way
the only thing that im wondering is,
is there any software out there, free/commercial which will allow me to sync my SMS inbox/email/contacts/calender between both my PocketPC Touch Pro and my WM Standard BJ2
any ideas?
many thanks
Use PPCPimBackup or use Microsoft MyPhone!
many thanks for your reply.
Just to confirm,
Does PPC PimBackup work on a backup made off a windows mobile professional device.
Many thanks
yup, no problem whatsoever. i have used it to sync my pro and std device.
