Question about Windows for IPAQ rx5720 - General Questions and Answers

Hello Guys,
im new to this forum and i like to read some threads here from timt 2 time.
And since i got my own pocket pc, i wondered if anybody could help me with a question.
The Windows Mobile Version of mine is a spanish one. And i would lik to have an english version of it. Is it somehow possible to install a language packet or to get another version of WM?
I hope you guys can help me with this. I know this isnt exactly a pocket-pc-forum, but maybe you know something.
Ill tried to search the web, but i got no result
Please help me, any answer would be very kind
Best regards

Just like Windows desktop OS's, you must reinstall the OS to change the language.
It's not an easy process if you are not familiar with your device. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, there is a forum devoted to your device. You should find a lot of information there.

Hey N1c0_ds,
i thought i have to reinstall or flash a new rom/OS.
I can read as much as possible and i dont fear the work
And because im not very familiar with my pda, i think it will be some work to me....
Thanks for your advice... i guess you meant the Other "HTC manufactured phones" forums. Ill have a lokk at these

thanks for the link, it looks all very confusing, which 1 do i install?
At the moment i have wm2003 2nd edition ver 4.21.1088 (build 15045.2.6.0)
Thanks

If it looks confusing, it's probably best that you don't mess with it until it stops looking confusing.
Everything you need to know is there, I suggest you spend more time in understanding what you need to do before you jump in and mess up your device.
thats exactly what i was thinking, thanks, could you tell me what advantages i would get by upgrading?
Thanks
Alan
The ability to run WM5, persistent storage, and access to WM5 only applications.
There are a whole host of reasons why WM5 is better than 2003se, and many older posts that answer that very question.
Take a look on the blueangel forum and go back a year or so. There's many posts tha go into lots of detail about the pros and cons.

getting started in programing for WM6. pls advise

hi folks,
i love my phone and will like to contribute...
i studied years ago turbo pascal but i figured that programing languages basically have similar flows?
i will like to seek advise from pros on how do i get started?
can i
1) know what programing language or tools do i need?
2) know what are the usual errors or problems so that my climb will be easier?
i am really sincere and i hope the pros can take some time to advise me...
yours

I would say, the easiest way to do some application pgrogramming, is to use the Visual Studio 2008(Tool) and C#(language). The platform is .Net framework 3.5.
You can download the latest Windows Mobile emulators, and use it along with Visual studio to test and debug your programs. Once you are satisfied with the program, you can build the cab using Visual Studio(which you can install on the real windows mobile device).
Please post specifics if you need more info. I am sure most of the poeple here are willing to help!
Please try the search function before posting even though this is the Q&A section
This question was just asked: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452400
sorry bro . . .
its fine, just figured you might find a little information quicker there
ok specific Q can i rely solely on "WYSIWYG" interface? rather than hardcode like C etc?
Nope. Solely WYSIWYG won't get you anywhere.
But you can use it. For example the CompactFramework.Net (CF.Net) has a WYSIWYG interface, but the underlying functionality you'll have to write yourself.
If that is what you meant...

Welcome to forums
As we dedicate only to HTC build devices you won´t find too much attention.
Better if you try here:
http://cellphoneforums.net/samsung/
Also in off topic there is a thread regarding samsung.
Good luck,
p.s: I would remove my email if I were you, because spam issues
Thank you!!!
but you should really start programing for samsung too
thanks again

Dual Boot

So I was thinking of having Froyo installed on my HD2 but have a few questions that maybe someone here can answer. Currently I have stock tmo and anastasia skins for different programs. My questions are:
What does dual boot mean?
Will I lose winmo completely?
Will I be losing my skins?
Can I swap between Operating systems? And if so how?
I hope someone can help me with this before I have anything installed. If anyone has froyo and can incude screenshos that would be great too.

You don't have to be that harsh on somebody asking something that isn't 100 described into detail...

If I may suggest, you could better post your questions in the HD2 ROM Development section of this forum.
But it would be even better if you post at either HD2 Android Development General or the HD2 Q&A subsections...
And to answer your questions (as far as I know (I don't use Android))
- dual boot means you have a choice at start-up to boot into windows, or directly boot to Android
- you won't loose Windows completely, as Windows is needed to start the programs to get Android running. (so until we have a stand-alone Android ROM for HD2, you will have some kind/build of Windows
- skins/themes applied to windows/Sense should remain
The last part I really don't know if it can, or how
(if someone knows more about this, and is willing to share, give it a shot )
Grtz,
Degake

Thank You for your help. As for the other response, no worries I know that some people are smarter than others in these topics but the time it took him to open the thread and write "use the search function" couldve been used to either say "I dont know" or answer the questions? Mods please consider this issue solved and close thread.

Sorry - Noob question

I have a Niki100 with WM6.1.
All I am looking to do is update it to WM6.5.
I have been searching this forum for hours and am just getting lost and buried in posts but still can seem to find what I am looking for.
I do not use it as a phone ... I really only need the Storage card, Bluetooth, ActiveSync and the OS to function. I run a small app that I have developed that collects data via Bluetooth then dumps it to a PC later.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
From what I have learned so far I need an RUU and a ROM. Are there such beasts for the Niki100 to get it to WM6.5 ?
Thanks in advance
