Developer tools - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

What tools are people using to write apps for the HD2
What tools do you need if you just want to create a cab with some registry tweeks in it?
Thanks

Try WinCE CAB Manager for creating cab-files. It's not free, but you can use it I think for 3 weeks before you have to buy it.
For developing you can use Visual Studio, .NET Compact Framework, Windows Mobile 6.5 Developer Tool Kit and Windows Mobile 6 SDK.
I know there are other possibilities to develop applications without .net, but I think this is a good starting point.

Attention..
to develop an app for WM6 you have to install SP1 for Visual Studio 2005 first.. then you can add the "feature" to dev WM6 Apps

To become a Leo's XDA-Developer

Hi all,
I want to start developing for our HD2
I'm student in IT. I can use Java, C, C++, Basic, ... but I've never developed for Windows Mobile devices. I know that it's possible to makes JME apps, but I want to make "pure" Windows apps
So how to do ?
I've installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 from MSDNAA, but I don't know which language to use : C# ? C++ ? Dears XDA-Developers, can you tell me which language is your favorite, and why ? For developing some basical apps, which one is better ? I will certainly use Manila .NET SDK. Which language is better for me ?
Thanks for helping & answering.
NOTE: Is there some french or spanish XDA's developers in this section ? Thanks in advance for contacting me.​
C# is great to get started with the WM6.5 SDK and Compact Framework
Besides, there are some nice libraries that you can use on .NET CF (for multitouch for example)
I'd heard the mobile device support was removed from VS2010, so you might have to use VS2008 instead.
I think the intention is to release a new sdk for windows phone 7 and silverlight at some point.
c# (or vb.net, if you really have to) is much easier than c++ though.

guide for creating today plugin for an utter beginners?

You need to learn c++. I forget the technical reasons why you cant use c# but I know you cant.
Downloading Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and loading the Windows Mobile SDK's is all you need. Google "windows mobile sdk" and youll find it. I think youll need both 6 and 6.5. With that done you should have everything you need to start writing applications.

i want to programming c++ at HD2

hi everyone
i want to programming c++ at HD2
I found in market a programm "esql" and it is for DB it very nice
but I need one for c++
can I find any program for this ??
You're not getting any responses because you've asked in the wrong section. There's a section dedicated to software development on the windows mobile platform...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=523
Anyway, try this...
http://www.microsoft.com/exPress/
It's a free version of Visual Studio and should be all you need to get into C++. You won't be able to use .Net with it, should you go down the C# route, as the free edition isn't compatible with the .Net SDKs that are available.
Good luck mate

Emulating MS Mobile on HTC HD2

A n00b question..
ENVIRONMENT
Visual Studio 2008 C++
MS Mobile Pro SDK
MS Mobile OS 6.x
I want to add the HTC HD2 to the Microsoft Device emulator.
I got Josh's .NBH file and tried to convert it to a .BIN, but the resulting file could not be read by the emulator.
Is there someplace I can find the .BIN (preferably with the skin (.XML and .PNG/.BMP files))??
Thanks so much.
As far as I know, there is no way to emulate a device rom using the MS Windows Mobile emulator.
Oh, thank you, Steven; that is what I have read online, but I was hoping that it was not true. :/
Could someone be so kind as to point me to emulation alternatives, preferably accompanying MS Visual Studio?
Yesterday I basically found what I needed with the MS Mobile 6.5 SDK (includes WVGA).
