Database Info

First name first not surname

Does anyone know how to do this within the contacts? Personally I would like the option to look up contacts via first name etc.
Also, does anyone know how to sync with a Motorola V3?
Thanks in advance.
Crash.

Workaround
A workaround:
Open each contact in Outlook, and change the "Store as" value..
(Default is "Surname, firstname")
Then save contact and move along to the next one..
A pain in the a** if you have a lot of contacts..
There might be some tools out there though..

What about a solution WithOUT the outlook workAround?

you can save the persons whole name under one section. eg first name 'steve dibs' last name ......
just click the down facing triangle then enter the name in one of the sections.

ps i feel your pain

Or use a different PIM, most give you the sort option in there contact list

it's probably not what you want i know but i gave up with contacts list when i got this app from this site ,it is a fantastic little app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11120

perhaps someone who is good with reg hacks might beable to help
i was told this would be an area to look in for changing the last name first name lay out of contacts in my Imate jam
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AddrBook
however i know extremely little about changing registy items.
set Display name in Contacts
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\contact\cproghook]
"FL"-> Set 0 if LastName then FirstName, 1 if FirstName then LastName
this was apparantly one for changing the display for another device
so i was kind of looking for something similar but it eludes me
any help would be most welcome by alot of people id reckon, me for sure anyway.
comments about switching contacts managers are unwelcome....i havent found another which i feel intergrates well.
thanks

excellent! not quite what i was after in terms of usage, but does the required function
"FileAsFL.arm.CAB v 1.0" is the cab to get it in the ver last post.
doesnt actually automatically change the way it displays the name, however it does let you change the way it is viewed after an entry has been made. so after you enter the name you need to select it and choose file as from the tools menu in contacts....or just "ctrl A" to select all then change the file as from tools menu.
very nice simple work around.
thanks

http://www.shubaroo.com a Norwegian site has made this little program http://www.shubaroo.com/Kontaktfiks_ppc_installer_v1.2.CAB
Install it and open the KontaktFiks from your program folder
Do as in the picture, and that will fiks all yor current contacts to "First Middle LastName"

@Bosjo
does that program make all new entries file correctly as well?
Speedn

No, only the ones that are in the Adress book.

Do you guys want me to make an english version of this program?

Same here

English version is available for download at www.shubaroo.com
The new version also gives you the opportunity to add the Company name to the File As field. It will then file the contacts as: "Firstname Middlename Lastname (Companyname)".
The new version will only run on WM 5.0 devices. Both Pocket PC's and SmartPhones.

Hi, There is any registry patch that allow only to change the display ?
leelouch (HTC P3600 - S300+)

I have the same frustration and created my own program to fix the contacts, even allowing for your own custom formats and using the Company Name field. I hope you find it helpful!

WM Torrent Client???

Hi guys,
Plz help me out with this....I want a WM Torrent client....i have downloaded one recently, WinMobile, but its a trial version....
Anyone know about any free available full version bit torrent client???
Thanks in advance...

afaik there is no free torrent sw for pocketpc, and the one I use is adisastas wmTorrent. Works very well, as you might already know.
I use my PPC to download stuff during the night by means of WiFi, because my PC is that loud and there is no door between the bedromm and where my PC is located

Sorry....just wanted a full version application from a fellow member...he possesses one!

yes, and I payed for it.
you can't be serious to ask for a crack here!?!
if you need the software, the USD 20,-- should't be a problem.
If its not worth that much to you, you obviously don't need it.
I am a Software Engineer by trade and I am pretty sure Adisasta put some work in this application. As said, it works very well. It has a nice interface too, btw.

hit the "Add to Cart" button and feel better afterwards...

Has anyone got wmtorrent to work properly. I keep getting "no tracker" from any torrent I try to leech.

I have same problem, and almost every where I try to dl it says: "Client Banned" or something like that : /

I just sent their "support" team a email about this problem. If they give me a solution, I will post it here for others to see.

Thank you for your email.
‘No Tracker’ means wmTorrent cannot reach the tracker URL.
Either the url is out of reach because it is a tracker-less torrent or your Internet connection is faulty.
In the first case, wmTorrent currently does not support tracker-less torrent.
In the second case, you need to check your connection settings.

It appears the Wmtorrent isn't even trying to establish a data connection. It's just sitting there, I never see my 3G icon change. Anyone know a solution?

wmtorrent issues
I used wmtorrent for some time now so I know the program pretty good.You have to establish a connection to the internet before connecting in wmtorrent.I usually use a program like im+ to connect to the internet or u can turn it on in comm manager, then in wmtorrent menu,tools,check connect you should see a green circle with on in upper left corner.If you click the notepad looking tab with a gear in front,thats your log it should show activity.

LOL,, I was just about to post this. I have to open Beejives IM client to get the data connection up. Thank's for your post. I wonder if this is a bug they plan to fix.

I have it working, but for some reason my data connection will drop. What do you mean by, "cut it on in comm manage". I don't see any setting that will bring up the data connection automatically, and keep it up.

depending on which comm manager(using new on/off style) it should say data connection or old style (green bkground w/ buttons) i believe its the buttons with arrows pointing to each other, if anything you can go in connection settings and connect from there,i personally use wktask bc it has a functions menu when u click in the most upper right in today screen,that allows you to connect/disconnect with your set connection.
btw i remember adidasta the developers for wmtorrent posted in their support forum about developing wmtorrent v3!! this was a month / two ago afaik they stated it will released after the d wnload accelerator app which is been out quite some time, and nowadays if you go to their forum that posting you can no longer find!! so im guessing they no longer developing it.This a shame because they had good fixes lined up including auto connect,dht,download structure (no more one file download,works like azureus) ,and etc.

Sorry for the disappearing of the pertinent post, it was a sincere mistake of our team, we accidentally deleted the database while upgrading the forum.
I can assure you that we are still developing wmTorrent. There are lot of problems we have to address before we can release the latest version, it is indeed a huge undertaking for us and with very limiting income that this project has generated so far, we are really struggling to keep it alive. It is the love of programming and BT protocol that make me fund and develop this project in the beginning and also because of that, I will never abandon the project. For better or worst.
I believe, you know the condition of software developers for WM.
Recently I have to switch our resources to another project, wmZip, due to immediate demands from vertical markets. By so doing, unfortunately, it contributes to the delay of wmTorrent v.3 release date. I hope I can put it back on track soon.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have supported us so far, believe us, we will live up to your expectation and deliver a better version in the future. Be patient

Planet3 (UK) on Touch Pro ?

Hi!
Has anyone got the Planet3 (Skype, MSN and TV) working on this phone.
I tried the User agent hack and the browser.dll (posted by Sub69), but in one case it says my phone is not supported and the other will redirect me to the www.three.co.uk main site (browser.dll one)
I would really like to get it working as Three has the best internet for mobiles in UK (at least what I could find).
Please help me!
Anhtuan
EDIT - After soft reseting few time (one didnt do it), it seems to work with a url - mobile.three.co.uk/hb/singleurl. Have the N95 browser.dll active also. So let the testing begin

The TytnII is supported and sold by 3UK. To make your phone appear like a TytnII, amend the broswers useragent string to
HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0
Then going to mobile.three.co.uk will give you the HTC version of Planet3, which you have already found. No need to make your phone pretend to be a Nokia when it can appear like a Kaiser

Three don't have a Skype client for Windows Mobile, you need to install the iskoot client and make some registry changes so it points at the 3 Skype servers.
I got my Hermes working with the free Skype service on 3 by following post #46 on this page

This is for UK users so you'll have to google to get the correct settings for your country, but the basic principle will be the same.

How do I install free games on Dash Kavana?

I am new to this and I have a dash upgraded to 6.1 Kavana. It is unlocked and on AT&T
I am trying to find some free games. I have tried installing games from mobilerated.com. I tried a few different ways, and I keep getting errors like
"Incorrect Type (application/xhtml+xml) returned for application file of tdtetris.jad - 37 Please contact your operator for more information. "
Another one I get is
"Application Jetris cannot be installed because critical information between the website and the application file does not match. - 31"
Basically I am wondering if someone can tell me where to get some free games and exactly how to install them. Thank you.

Good luck,

Best Open Market Application for HTC HD2

I have just discovered Open Market and it is quite frankly a bit more reach in free apps.
Look for OpnMarket

Come on have your say.
Mine so far is WIFI Remote Access v1.00
Enables to browse the content of your Windows Phone 6.5 or Windows Mobile 6.0, 6.1 device from your computer's web browser using a WIFI connection without installing anything on your computer!

People would benefit from searching xda developers a bit more thouroughly (or in some cases, at all!) before looking elsewhere for applications. This community has much more to offer than any other single location on the internet (including Wifi Remote Access v1.7)

totally agree with you. whatever i'm looking for i usually end up finding it here anyway.

I'm still anxiously waiting for XDA-Marketplace.....! Already there isa version for Android, I'm wondering how long it will take for a WM version, since originally xda-developers was intended for windows mobile... That's the one I want to have!

Can't seem to get Omarket to function properly on my HD2. It requires a login or registration and attempt to register, but it says my information is incorrect...LOL
At first it would say my email was incorrect, and I tried 3 email address, then it says there's an error in the fields.

Just go to www.freewarepocketpc.net and register there. it worked for me

first I look at openmarket and after here bc I way easier then here to search the forums. OpenMarket is a must have.
PS: a shame that they try to make another one and dont work together. One place with all stuff, that must be the target
