Anyone can advise a good phone manager??

Hi Guys,
Only recently switched over to a PDA, before that i was a real SE hardcore user, and there was a wonderful pieces of software named Float's (http://fma.sourceforge.net) which allowed me to do everything from my PC, including sms, receive calls editing contacts and so on, now my question, anyone knows something similar to use with windows mobile phones??

FMA sounds like a great product.
Try My Mobiler. I am sure it doesn't even come close to FMA but it's may be all we got for Windows Mobile.

i use true connect

Well, it's a completely different - it's "just" a remote controller app. See my review of it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318425 if interested.
As far as a desktop app closest to FMA is concerned, let me recommend Jeyo.

Ok guys~ thanks for the info, think i'm gonna give Jeyo a try
there is a trial version anyway !

Vncviewer?

Hi guys,
I had a vncviewer used to work perfectly in wm5, but since I updated my kaiser to wm6 and lately wm6.1, it's not working anymore. I've been doing some search in xda-developers and google, trying to find a working version for wm6.1, but no luck so far. Anyone knows where can I find one?
Thanks advance!

Did you try the commercial (and much better) alternatives like Parys Technografx' Pocket Office? See my related Bible at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Access your desktop PC from your Pocket PC!

Thanks, I will check it out!

there is also www.z2software.com which I use and think is excellent but if you do not need the functionality then there is the free remote desktop that came with your phone, I am attaching it for you in case you don't have it.
at your computer end to use the same software you need to go
start -> programs -> accessories -> communications
and
you will also need to go to system properties (hold down the windows key and press the pause break button) then click on the remote tab to enable remote connections to your computer.
ohh and watch out for firewalls both software and hardware in your router.

Thanks man! I know I can use this with one of my pc, which installed win pro, but I have another one with home edition, don't really know how to enable the remote function. I use vncviewer to remote control the home edition through vpn tunnel.

With the Home Ed, you can't use RDP, as has also been explained in the Remote Bible above (have you checked it out?)

I have checked out your wiki page, it help a lot, thanks!

Ole hyvä

Remote Access to PC

Hi guys,
I use my touch pro for numerous official reasons and projects. It could be anything, starting from a powerpoint presentation to a report writing and all those. However, I still need to carry my laptop around just to be sure that I have all the files and everything when I'm on the move.
That gave me an idea, was wondering if there is any method or an application, that I probably can make use of, to access my laptop remotely over wifi or internet. So that I can copy a file to and from my touch pro whenever is required...!!!
Thanks for any input...

That's the best roundup I found so far:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288506
Enjoy

you can always make an adhoc connection with your laptop
and use resco explorer to copy files off a shared drive on the laptop

usee I actually wanna keep my laptop at home switched on during my work time and wanna access it from my office with the touch pro for file sharing purposes. is that possible by any means?

yeah, youll need to use port forwarding in your router

Hey thanks for that link It did work, I installed logmein and its working so far, but I have a small query. Does the free version get over after a certain period? And if does then can I reactivate it?

I've been using logmein now for years and the free verison does not expire.

So how did you get the keyboard to work with Logmein? We have a thread going over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444641

Best VNC like app for HD2 ?

Looking for a VNC app for Windows Mobile wich can acces the Pc by the phone ?
What progs are out there ?

It should come with Remote Desktop already installed. That works a treat

yeah how does that work exactly because I didn't really got that working, should I run an application on the PC aswell?

Well i think soo!
The app is there for iphone for example! so there should be a simular to WM ?
I havnt yet found any app, thats why im here

You have to enable remote desktop connections on your PC and then the remote desktop app that comes as standard on your phone will work. This has been a basic function for WM phones for a long time.
(You will also need to allow traffic on port 3389 through your firewall, if you have one.)

This version works fine for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445903

I use .netvnc app (cannot post link but google it its first hit)

You have to ENABLE it for a GIVEN login ID on your PC. You will be prompted for this ID when you use the RDC app on the HD2

i have aproblem with keyboard! How can i open it in full screen mode?

Thanks mate i will now read and try

can you post a link please?

Hi,
I have the same problem with keyboard. When I enter Full screen I cannot activate it or go out of fullscreen mode.
Is it possible to connect with higher resolution than 800 x 480 ?
Is there any alternative client ?
iPhone with jaduu or mocha vnc is great. Why there is no good software for HD2 :/ ?

Hi, im new here.
Using remote desktop has a few problems. Especially the fact it has no keyboard. Also sound is missing. Another problem is that the remote desktop installed to basic editions if windows (on the pc) does not support remote server, it can only be used as a client to another pc. I found a patch someone on this forum made than can get around this problem. But despite the fact mine connects fine, i rarely use it as it has very little functionality!
If it is important that you can connect to your pc i hear vnc is much better for it as it has full functionality. Dont know if there is a similar free version available as vnc is about £50.
hooope this helps buddy

Keyboard: use the on-screen-keyboard or a BTK with your HD2, works like a charm.
Resolution: Fairly sure the answer is no.
Why use vnc when you have RDC, its waaaaay better.

VNC does not limit resolution. That makes RDP useless for me :/
There is another solution but I have not tried it yet
Z2 Remote2PC I will try it today

Can anybody start this java app -- VNC+ ?? I only get "press any key" and keyboard doesn't do the trick :/
website
rdmplus . com / vnc

I have tested GRemote Pro .. but cant get it working, and its Damnnnnnn slow
Real NVC havnt found one yet? can any one link?
The Bulit in software in hd2 .cant get it to connect to my pc (No damn good spet by step guide )

[Q] (HTC Ozone) Wifi sharing for mobile 6.5?

I read at somepoint that HTC may be releasing some form of a wifi sharing app for HTC smartphones. At the end of the post that I was reading, there was a cab that installed CMWifiSharing.exe to my Windows directory. However, it looked like that app was for touchphones, sine I couldn't interact with the UI in anyway.
My question is, is there any free application out there that enables wifi sharing for an HTC Ozone on Windows Mobile 6.5?

i'm not sure if any of them support non-touchscreen devices.. but you should try WMWifiRouter and ICS either way.
hope this works for you.

Already tried WMWifiRouter, worked ok, but I'd rather not pay for it if there's already a free alternative out there (or in the making). What is this ICS you speak of?

it's a simple app designed to pretty much do the same as WMWifiRouter.. but with much less options.
look for it.. it's easy to find.

Do you mean this?
I downloaded it to my phone, tried running it, and it crashed right away with an error saying "NotSupportedException at Microsoft.AGL.Common.MISC.HandleAr() ..."
I already have a newer Compact Framework than the one ICS requires. So what can I do?
Edit: Just looking at the screenshot for this program makes it seem it's for a completely different mobile operating system. Reading around on the Internet a bit, it seems like that error occurs when an application tries to create a button that isn't supported on the phone.
Got any other ideas?

unfortunately, no. I haven't used any other wifi sharing software other than these 3. If i were you, i'd try doing it thru winmo. create an AdHoc connection in your native WM environment and try connecting to it. You can probably find many threads concerning the creation and sharing of an AdHoc connection in the forum.
let me know if you managed to get it.

Bump :/
Even a ROM flash would be ok, I just don't know what I need.
