hi chaps
right, here's my problem:
i've got a prophet running the latest dopod rom. all's well in pda land. unfortunately, i've had to do some fiddling to get o2's homezone app working the way it should do. more or less. see, the thing is when my device wakes up, the homezone app HZDisplayDataSMP is always in the foreground. so before i can do anything i have to press the OK button. now, i can sort of live with this, as i have homezone functionality, but it's, well, a pain in the arse, to be honest.
so, my question to you guys is this: does anyone know of a WM5 programme that will run apps, but force them to remain in the background. i was thinking of some resident startup item that would keep the app hidden away nicely from my interface, but continue to allow it to do what it needs to.
does anyone know of anything that sounds useful? if so, you're my man. i've got a hunch our good vijay555 might be able to lend a hand, but feel free to throw suggestions at me.
thanks a million, guys
I was asked about a similar app recently, to run apps minimised.
I've had major troubles rebuilding my PC after I installed the Vista Beta and it decided to eat my Documents & Settings and Program Files.
I'm finally back up to speed and able to start programming again, so will try to look into it.
But it should be easy enough for a developer to knock together with ShellExecute.
In the meantime, you might want to use a mort script to find the window by caption and minimise it. Or SK Schema should be able to do exactly what you want, run an event when it finds a window by caption.

righto! thanks for the heads-up. really appreciate it, pal. i'll have a look into both of those suggestions.
ps: the only reason to install vista is halo 2 pc. can't think of any other factor which would cause me to pollute my hard drive with such nonsense
OK, I usually read a lot and rarely post, but I had to be the first to bring you Mac fanboys the good news!!!
After several tries, I couldn't make PocketMac and/or The Missing Sync do ANYTHING AT ALL to sync with my WM5/WM6 Hermes on my OS X. I couldn't uninstall them properly, couldn't get TRIALS without already having a $erial number, and experienced USB problems with these things!!! I have no problem with paying for good software, but I was determined to get something to WORK before I paid, due to so many terrible reviews I've read of these two products mentioned above.
I finally found software to SYNC in OS X 10.4.x...
http://www.eltima.com/products/syncmate/
It's called SyncMate, and so far it's free (for a while?) Now, if only I can settle on a nice ROM (if I could stop flashing), I'll have absolutely no use for Windows!
So far, SyncMate looks good... It successfully imported my Traditional Chinese contacts into the address book, but I haven't played with it much yet...
Mac users, please try it and we can use this Thread to post our experiences!!!
Keep in mind, you need to properly uninstall the OLD SYNC GARBAGE leftover from PocketMac and/or Missing Sync before it will begin to sync.

Hermes on OS X 10.4.9 Hackintosh
I actually tried it yesterday but couldn't get it to work. It couldn't connect to my Touch. It does look promising though. I paid for Missing Sync which has always worked well for me. The problem with this app might be that I'm on 10.5.1. I've read something about Leopard not working well for some people, a problem with a network connection. I'll try it again if people can get it to work on Leopard properly, I don't mind switching if it's better.
Just one question though. It seemed like you can only sync one calendar, is that the case? That would make it pretty much useless to me since I use 5 differen iCal calendars.
Does it work with OSX 10.3.9??? God Please!!
Downloaded the program, but couldn't get it to work with my O2 Zinc, don't understand why, it does have the sync sign, but couldn't get a establishment between the 2 and i simply can't click the sync button on the Syncmate program. Can someone please enlighten. Cheers!

Hermes Forum has info
Someone wrote about this in the Hermes Forum, and I've been replying to that. Someone ought to try and move it to the General Forum, but for now, here's its URL

Sync over Bluetooth?
Hi,
There is a way for use it over Bluetooth?
Regards,
Taguapire.
Works perfectly. Love it. The only thing I wish it had was Bluetooth, as taguapire mentioned.
*sigh* Why do we always have to be called fanboys?
Nice software though.
Oh, and new version out, as of Jan 3rd.
I am using missingsync with leopard and my hermes without a hitch. great application, all the others I have tried have been flaky.
I have tried a bunch of times to connect to syncmate and it simply won't. Any advice? I am on 10.4.1 and using an XV6800. It just won't connect.
somebody knows some program to use in mac os to edit the ppc registry
I don't know why this happens but I cannot install any new today plugin items anymore.
I use winmo 6.1 on ipaq 612c.
I think this started ever since i changed the today plugin order using Memmaid. I'm not sure exactly if this the entire reason though. I've uninstalled memmaid but problem still remains. So i reinstalled memmaid because i find it useful for doing other stuff.
Has anyone ever heard of such a problem? Please no hard reset suggestion. thx
nobody having similar issues?
Hi,
What other software have you installed that could be causing compatability issues? Give me a list of what you have, ive not heard of today plugins not showing if installed correctly, unless you are using a different today screen (such as tf3d for example).
You say you cant install correctly? Are you given an error message?
i have done these things:
i have disabled all start ups...
I have disabled all start up plugins
And even after doing those things i still can't install and new apps with today plugins.
To work I have to delete the today dll component first then the today page returns to normal again and main application starts.
This happens with pocket music, spb insight and others (all of them basically).
Multiple today page plugins definitely wont run.
On top of the typical today plugins i have skype and wefi...

I've just gotten the AT&T Tilt2 this Dec 31 and I have been trying to figure out how to really customize the today themes. however, because nearly everyone here uses cooked roms, i just can't seem to figure out how to find plugins that can work with stock winMO 6.5 on my Tilt2. I have a few particular things I would like to set for my today themes but I need to learn even the very basic of the themes on my Tilt2 first, such as TouchFLO 3D. but what do I call the window default? so far I think it's titanium? and what about the even older looking theme that I see when I don't have either the "titanium" and TouchFLO 3D?
Basically I want easy view (or access) of the weather forecast, time, agenda, task, and messages (combined SMS, MMS, and e-mails). I would also love to be able to launch select few apps from there.
How do I go about setting this up when I do not even know how to find out all of the relevant info I needs? (believe me, I've tried to use the search functions but i can't seem to find any newbie-friendly explanations).
Sorry if I seem to be cluttering up this subforum, but I really really want to figure out how to set this up so I can truly use my tilt2 efficiently in this way in preparation for my next semester at college.
Thanks for any and all info.
P.S. I know that I will be suggested to go ahead and try to flash some roms into this tilt2 but i would rather find out of these plugin first so I can be sure that I would have all of the functionality without having to do that if I can.

Welcome to the forums!
TouchFlo and Titanium are today plugins.
This means that when you siable them both, you get the standard WinMo today screen.
You can disable them by going into start/settings/today. There you can disable the items you don't want.
To have more plugins for titanium, you can go here. There you can find various extra plugins, like weather.
For TouchFlo, there aren't any plugins.
I hope this helps, if you have got more questions you may always PM me.
And next time, ask questions in the Q&A section. I know that forum gets less attention but we need to keep this section clean for themes only. Thanks.
Cheers,
EC

Okay no problem, just next time.
As I said you can revert to the old standard windows mobile home by going to start/settings/personal/today/items and uncheck Titanium and Touchflo.
I don't know any standard home plugins, because I never used it.
If you deleted plug-ins you will need to hard-reset your Tilt2, or find a download somewhere.
EC
Moved to Q&A as not release.
You can use standard plugins. As was already said, just uncheck windows default and TF3D from today settings, and select whatever you want. I use Tonaya weather-2-go, Skyfire, Pocket Digital Clock, PDA Status, and SK T oday Commander (paid for). A lot of the freeware sites have many choices. I recommend PDA Status, it's really nice.
Anyway, I kind of agree with you on the UI's. I like having things in one place, and don't like having to scroll all over the place. If you're bored, you can check my sig and see how I have mine set up (don't flash it, though).

Frustrated
OK, I'm frustrated as hell trying to get some decent plug ins for my new phone. Just got a new Tilt 2, and really, really like the titanium weather plug in look, but cannot get it to operate on the phone. Am I missing something? The options for the today screen do not change after I install titanium weather (showaco, tried both of his v4.1 and 4.2 cabs), but a weather line shows up in the Windows default today screen. However, every time I try to get it set up, it gives me an error, essentially
(OK, I can't post a link (not trying to), but in the following, the xxxx was actually http)
'xxxx://hadle.accu-weather.com/widget/hadle/weather-data.asp?location=62002&metric=0' couldn't be opened.
also
Line 1 (\Program Files\TitaniumWeather\TitaniumWeather.mscr):link=ReadFile("xxxx://hadle.accu-weather.com/widget/hadle/weather-data.asp?location=&location&"&metric="&metric)
So, what am I missing, or am I installing an incorrect program? I'm brand new to any of this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm sorry that the topic isn't clear, but I don't know how the thing I want to ask about is called. I've tried many keywords in assotiation with site:xda-developers.com on google and didn't find what I wanted to get.
I'm using prepaid polish network called simplus, one can change alot on his account by using many short codes like *100#, after which SMS is sent to the phone with needed info, or a service is activated/deactivated.
But code *110# should enter interactive thing, which simplus calls ebok. It works even on very old phones with color display, not sure about monochrome, and I'm sure it worked on Tytn2's(Kaiser) original rom.
It's summons white windows/square that has written
"1. something
2. something else
3. something else
etc."
and below there is usual WM field for input, one writes the input and after a second another window opens with new options. It's somehow managed by short codes or short code makros, I'm not sure how to call it.
It makes managing account very easy and should be independent to system, but right now all I get is
"Command sent..."
and then "session terminated" after looong while.
I remember that it didn't work on SPV classic as well. Did work on SPV C600.
I have installed custom bare rom by Witschey, but I believe it's better to ask her, because there's probably many roms on which it doesn't work,
SPB mobile shell 3.5.3(which I for tests turned off) with MobileSense 3.5.2.20091229
SMS-chat that I turned off, but I sed default SMS client to SMS-chat instead of tmail.exe so clicking on icon in SPB gets me straight to SMS-chat(I turned off SMS-chat when trying it, but it was still default SMS client)
and S2U2 2.22.
All other apps weren't running when I was trying it out.
I believe that there's probably some strange cab I have to install for it to work. I probably would find the answer myself if I knew how the system is called, but other than ebok or e-bok I didn't find any other name for it.
