General WM6.1 problem (Sent from my Windows Mobile® phone.) - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

is it possible to remove the "Sent from my Windows Mobile® phone." text.
Im guessing this is some sort of registry edit - if so can someone direct me ?

found out how - in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2201034

Is their a Registry or other Automated way to do it aswell?
Hello All,
We want to set the Signature to something else with an automated script. So the solution provided is for a single user just fine. We need something to chang the 'deafault' signature to something else or just dis-able it.
Is their a way? Perhaps trough provisioning a XML file?
Regards Tom

Disable certificate checking

Ugh. Trying to find out how I can install my root certificate onto these WM2005 devices.
Certchk doesn;t work any more and I can't change anything in the registry (apparently the reg editor would have to be signed by the operator?!)
Can anyone help? Otherwise I have the alternative of buying an expensive certificate (bloody rip-off!) or sending this nice phone back!

Hi I got an I-Mate SP5 / (HTC Tornado), and have the same problem.
Please add your thoughts to this thread if you come closer to a solution.
I have tried to change SecurityPolicy like on the 2003 device with no luck..
I have tried to change policy direct in registry + with some freeware tools.
Running out of ideas... ;/ I really don't want to pay bucks to be able to use install own software on my own phones, and use own root CA certs.. it is just annoying.. The security model should be as on ppc.. og atleast possible to manipulate manually in a configuration stage.
try attached file.
I got a package of debug tools
I can see many other files for installing certificate something in it.
I think this should be enough to install software.
Thanks fly,
Didn't try your file, but I did find out how to get it working.
I posted it in another forum... (do a google for "fergus certificate disable" amd the first one comes up with it.) Seems to work, at least for me.

On Imate.com there is now a specific program for installing the certificate for the SP5. I have sometime read, that this program is OEM specific, so I don't think that it will work on a Qtek 8310.
whatever I do - can't make it work
Trie it on mt Qtek branded Torndo. Followed all directions to the letter, used same self administered certificate working OK on my Qtek 9000 and IMate PDA2K... doesn't work, anybody has a clue ?

thx

It works
Actually Following above instructions work. I just mispelled our incredibly long domain name
Upload Imate Utility
Can someone upload the Imate Chertificate utility to the FTP site or attach it to a message here, or PM it to me. I have the new T-Mobile SDA, so I can't get the file from Imate's site and it does not appear to be on Imate's FTP server.
TIA

I Found It.
Here it is
Didn't Work on T-Mobile SDA
The i-mate utility would not run on my US T-Mobile branded Tornado (SDA). However, the instructions in the linked thread above worked perfectly. Thanks. I'm now syncing with my exchange server and my own generated certificate with ease.

Disabling certificates
Is there a way to simply disable certificates?
If not how the f#@k do I get a simple program in visual studio onto my phone.
I have added the Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Remote_Tools.cer to my app.
I have used regedit to set the propeties as above.
I have installed Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Remote_Tools.cer to my device.
When I try to compile the app I get the error saying security is stopping the install.
I am obviously do not understand what goes where.
Anyone have a idiot level step by step guide to get the thing working.
Hurry up about to hang myself

Greetings from Ukraine!
I expect to receive Cingular 2125 soon and would like to ask a question. Since our MS Exchange Server uses our own security certificate I will have to add our root certificate into Cingular 2125. I have successfully done that several times for HTC MTeoR using SP_AlowCertificateInstall.
Can somebody advise whether it may also be possible to unlock Cingular 2125 by means of SP_AlowCertificateInstall to be able to install our certificate?
If not and as posts in this topic are rather old perhaps you know some “nowaday” method to add security certificates into Cingular 2125?

Where to get device lock application available on Wizard

Hi All,
My friend has just bought a Wizard and I noticed that it has a nice little device lock application on the home screen. Does anyone know where I can get this little app
for my XDA II running WM 2003 SE?
Cheers,
Richard.
Is it possible to rip this app from the WM 2005 Wizard ROM somehow?
I checked one of the EXT_ROM images I found but couldn't see anything obvious
in there. Could it be built into the main ROM perhaps?
cheers,
Richard.
We tried before to find the file responsible for this utility, so we could be able to bind it to a hardbutton and take it off the todayscreen, but no luck. No-one knows what file is responsible for this app. sorry guys.
the registry points to "shutil.dll" - I suppose this is a fairly generic shell utilities DLL, but as there is no further 'entry point' data in the registry, just hooking that up as a Today item should automatically provide the required data ? Unless it polls an additional DLL, of course, but a resource explorer check of that DLL (if you can copy it) should be able to point any of that out?

Looking for PIM for Win CE5 (I'm new ... go slow!)

Chaps,
I'm new 'round here (first post), and I am not that clued-up on PDA and Windows CE terminology and suchlike. However I have a technical background, so will probably get along OK.
I have a Fujitsu Siemens Loox N100 (see link here.) I bought it as a Sat-Nav system, but have since discovered that you can unlock it and reveal the underlying Windows operating system. It claims to be Windows CE v5.00.
Having managed this, I have loaded various bits of software onto it, including TCPMP (MP3 player) and SpreadCE (Pocket Spreadsheet program.) Both of which work very well, and I am very happy with them.
I now want to find both address book and diary software, thus allowing me to use the machine as a PDA. However, I simply can't find anything to fit this bill - it seems that if you buy a PDA with WinCE on it, it also comes with Pocket Outlook, allowing you to do both these things. I don't have this software, and therein lies my request.
Is it possible to get hold of CAB files for Pocket Outlook, to solve this problem? Or, failing that, can anyone recommend a suitable PIM application that will both keep track of contacts for me, and run a personal diary? (If these sync with Outlook on my desktop PC that would be the icing on the cake, but it is not essential.)
Does anyone have any suggestions for suitable software for these tasks?
The other option is to use SpreadCE to write something using Excel functionals. I may be able to cook up a reasonable address book like this, but a diary would be beyond me!
Thanks for any help!
Oli.
Quick update ...
.. searching on here has thrown up "My Calender v1.5", which looks ideal for the diary part of the problem, but when I load it and run it I get the message (on the pocket device) "Fail to load CLSID".
Any ideas?
Thanks, again.
Oli.
Sorry, I am not familiar with any PIM software that will work on Win CE.
The devices we deal with here run Windows Mobile. Though it is based on Win CE (same kernel) it has a few additions on which most of the apps (fortunately not all) depend.
There is no such thing as cab for pocket outlook.
There is one thing I can recommend:
Search for "opening MIO C550". Someone created a cab for that device (unfortunately it runs CE 4.2) that adds ActiveSync to it and some dlls (like aygshell.dll) that Win Mobile apps need to run.
It also has some utilities though I am not sure about PIM.
I think this might work for you (at least you will be able to run a wider range of apps).
Oh, and the error you are getting is probably due to a missing COM object. Nothing to be done about that.
Levenum,
Thanks for your reply. It was helpful.
Your comment about Windows Mobile and Windows CE is very helpful. I thought that Windows Mobile and Windows CE were the same thing - different names for the same software. Thanks for clearing that up - apologies for ignorance. The fact that there are some things on Windows Mobile that are not on Windows CE may explain why some of the software I have tried hasn't worked.
I will try the "Opening MIO C550" search as you suggested. However, I can run Windows ActiveSync on the N100 as it is. (Although that's about it!) I'll post up here with details of how I get on ...
What do you mean by a "Missing Com Object"? What is a Com Object? You suggest that there is no way of fixing this - shame, as My Calender looks just about ideal for what I want to do!
Thanks again for your help.
Oli.
Please receive my apologies. I gave you incorrect model. There is no C550.
Mio P550 is a full PDA, but Mio C510 is a PND.
Any way here is the link, judging by the screenshots it has some kind of 'contact' app. Hope it helps.
'COM object' is a programming term. M$ invented the system and it is very problematic when moving programs around.
As you may know almost all windows programs rely on some DLL files in addition to EXE files as well. Those DLL files are programs too but they do not run by them selves but only offer functions to be used by other programs.
The idea was that if there is a common function, like say opening a window it would be in a DLL and instead of every programmer rewriting it in his code he would just call the function.
COM objects are stored in DLLs too but accessing them is more complicated. For one thing, its not enough for the DLL just to be there (like with normal DLLs) but it needs a registry entry. Have you ever dug through the registry and seen the CLSID key that has many sub keys that look like this: {a1234678-1234.....? Most of them are COM objects.
Virtual keyboards are implemented as COM objects on WM.
Levenum,
Thanks again.
It looks like I am onto a losing streak with this. I tried the details as described for the Mio C510, but to no avail - it doesn't work on the N100.
COM Objects ... thanks for the explanation. Am I right in understanding that the problem I have is a missing DLL file, when I try to run MyCalender? Would it be possible to put the relevant DLL file onto my machine? My Calender looks very much like the sort of thing I am looking to run, and I am frustrated at being so close to running it!
Failing that, does anyone else know of any PIM software that might run on WinCE?
Thanks again,
Oli.
Actually, what the error means is you are missing some registry entries.
It is most likely those entries are pointing to a DLL but there is no way of telling which DLL without knowing what the app looks for in the registry.
By the way, you do not need to follow all the instructions there.
You just need to get the cab and manually install it (I understand you can access file explorer on your device).
If that does not work, then sorry I am out of ideas.

Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Read/Write Chinese

I'm using a Motorola "Napoleon" Q9N running Windows Mobile 6.1.
I'm trying to find a way to AT THE VERY LEAST, read the characters. I don't mind if I can't write the characters, but I would like to if possible. I tried installing CE Star, but for some weird reason, when I tried to send an SMS message, it just sends out @ symbols whether I type English or Chinese characters and it only lets me user the number pad when the Q as a full QWERTY keyboard (which seems like a waste of time, but I understand why).
Does anyone know of a way I can at least get the fonts working? I've found different ways, but I'm afraid to try them cause usually they are written for PPC or WM5 and I'm not sure if it's valid or not.
just change your font to Arial Unicode MS (arialuni.ttf)... 22 MB file.

How do I do that? Is that just a simple registry edit? Can you be a bit more specific? Is the font installed by default or do I need to find it somewhere?
HOWTO: Change Default Font in WM6:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334781
arialuni.ttf is in your Windows computer's font directory.
Just tried his instructions, and it gave me a black screen upon a battery pull. I tried using 2 different remote registry editors, but both gave me a could not write to error. I had to use PHM and do it by hand.
The last edit that was in the guide was not present in my registry, neither. Not sure why these instructions were a bit off. Maybe he was editing a PPC when I have a smartphone?

[Q] Which registry editor do you use? | Common registry editor?

Hello xda-developers
I'd like to know if there's a common registry editor (or method) which gives full access on all Windows Phone 7 devices (HTC, Samsung, LG, ...)? It really would help me with my tutorial (which is already on in the development section - just needs some improvement)
If there's no tool which can do it, please tell me which phone model you have and which registry editor you tried and like
I'd really appreciate your help Thanks in advance!
I think there are registry editors for WP7, but they only work on developer or unlocked phones. Normal marketplace certified apps aren't allowed to manipulate registry in that way.
By the way: how does this unofficial registry editor work? Usage of private API involved?
Yes, it's homebrew and not allowed on the marketplace. And I guess the unofficial registry editors work with those private API's.
Well, still searching for a good method to edit registry on all devices By the way: Does someone know a good registry editor for HTC devices?
hello,
btw, is there a reg editor for HD7 that will give access to the 'access restricted', so as to be able to do some of the recomendations? It seems everyone is seeking a solution, but I didn't see any real answer or programs out there to do...
just that hb for the samsung...
hope someone has an answer soon..
thanks
Well, I'm not into registry editors for HTC devices, but maybe someone can help you By the way, it's important to tell us what version of WP7 you use (7004, 7008 or higher..)
Thanks
