Found "maybe' New PPC Free Softwares Site in Cab/Zip formats

Hi all,
i don't know if this has been made known before but anyway here is a link http://www.freecabs.de/ to a site that serves to provide ppc users a place to find free/commercial softwares/games in cab file-ready format and zip. just to mention a few like Pocket Rar, PPC Skype, Mem Release, VLC Media Player (that can stream video), Virtual Earth Mobile, UI tweaker etc. As for version compatibility, as most is not mentioned, i guess it's up to the user to find out.
I've tried to look for the proprietor's name of this website but could not find any so i could not pay any tribute directly as yet but anyway if he/she reads this, "A BIG THANK YOU TO YOU" so if any of you guys do find his/her name please mention it here. he/she did tho' include his/her e-mail "[email protected]". I think he/she deserves our thank you.
Cheers. (P.S as the url suggest softwares are free but i could not confirm this as i don't use much of them only those that i need)

The site is by Holger Schmidt
Danke Holger

Yes, i'm sorry. it's listed just below the title. Thanks.
And thank you again, Holger Schmidt.

Freecabs - Metro City Navigation
Métro Ver. 5.4.4 is cool. 350 cities.. and it's free!
If you have ever been lost in Munich, you know what I'm talking about.

well freecabs is great. But the site is really a portal for OTA downloads. All apps belong to their seperate owners.

Now the website is temporarily unhosted and perhaps discontinued in eight to ten months. This because the webmaster owner has a new carreer waiting ..
He will evaluate in 8 months if upholding the site is possible..

Borrower application ?

hi
i'm looking for some application similar to 'borrower 1.5.0' (i can't find it for download)
from time to time i borrow some stuff and i usually forget on that
could you please recommend something like borrower?
(or maybe you have download link i wasn't able to find?)
thanks
cheers,
kufor

Download borrower 1.5.0 HERE,you'll be redirected to PocketGear, create an account or sign in and download borrower

i tried that, but i'm being redirected to SurveyToGo software, that i'm not interested in
if you are able to download it, could you please post it on some share?

Guess that Link's broken...Here's another freeware that might do the job, its called "In out Things" (LINK)

that looks promising, thanks reaper
it just basically creates standard task with one month due date

How do I find the applications I want?

Hi,
I'm new to HTC, and windows mobile. I'm having great difficulty in finding apps that I want, how do I go about finding them until the XDA marketplace is up and running?
I'm currently after an ebay app if there is one, and also a converter app. Also I've read somewhere that there's an app/cab file that allows any program to be in landscape or portrait, but I can't remember the name. Think it was gyrator or something but I can't find it, any idea?

I can't help you with the ebay app, but you want BsB Tweaks to allow rotation in applications, or try PLToggle (in my sig below).
For the ebay app, I'd recommend searching in the windows apps forum (in general), rather than a phone specific forum.
Hope this helps

Mate, before you do buy things .. search .. search .. search! this community has a lot to offer and there is bound to be a freeware that can do what you are looking for.
Of course when all fails default to buying the app. If you find what you are looking for consider donating to the hardworking developers here.

I have searched and can't find what I want so end up asking, but then feel a nuisance

Hi Snerkler,
Searchng on XDA is not easy (I should know). Use this tool, which should give you a fighting chance...http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all.
Also look here ..http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/
And if you google "windows mobile apps" or "free windows mobile apps" you will be surprised what you can find!
Unfortunately we don't have an app store like that other device; however there are thousands of apps out there.
Just thought of another 2 sites:
Clove....http://www.clove.co.uk/
Handango....http://www.handango.com/homepage/Homepage.jsp?storeId=2218
If you are stuck after all this then do one thing.......send me your phone and pack it all in.
Good luck chap
WB
PS PM me if you need more info but don't want to look stupid on here. However you have been getting loads of help off people here which is good; no one's told you to get lost yet or to RTFW (read the wiki (lol)).
Must be your excellent Karma. Do enjoy exploring the world of Windows Mobile.

hey
could you point me in the direction of where that is being developed
thanks

There's a nice app store app you can get from http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-opnmarket.html that contains some of the xda initiatives (along with other developers creations). Otherwise just look through the forums for your device.
And of course there's Microsoft's own 'marketplace' app store for which there should be a 'Marketplace' app already installed on your phone (or you can go to
https://marketplace.windowsphone.com/default.aspx if you want to view it in a web browser (note that it doesn't work well if you're using Opera (despite that being on many flagship windows mobile handsets) - nice one Microsoft ).

Thanks Ian,
just installed Omarket, very impressed with it so far.

Wordpress App

Hi im about to embark on a new project and am considering wordpress as a method of getting it online quick and easy. Is there a good app that will allow be to add posts and images from my phone?

The only one I really know of that works well is called Diarist 2.

Thanks I will give that a go, was hoping for something touich friendly but will try it. Has anyone tried Shozu or CellSpin

shozu doesn't seem to have HD2 support, either does cellspin.

Pedaah
Please could you help me configure diarist for wordpress, i cant find any instructions anywhere. I have just tried Photospin, it does work with the HD2 and its nice and simple but you cant do upload pictures and text in the same post, only sperately.

I use a moBlog. It is a old program, but i use in my HD2 without problem.
It's a freeprogram. Download in http://sampath.wordpress.com/moblog/

[Q] Shiftplan (Schichtplaner) for WP7

Hi alltogether !
I've searched the forum, but found nothing, so let me start a new thread.
I'm looking for an app called Shiftplaner (or Schichtplan in German). Does anybody have it (or is able to convert it to) .xap ?
Both english or german would do for me.
I think some of us here work in shifts, so it would be nice to have it to plan some free time...
Thanks for the replies...

Well, for starters this thread should really be in "Windows Phone 7 General" forum.
2nd, is this app available on other platforms? Do you have a link to a website? Marketplace doesn't show any apps by that name that I can find.

Sorry, as You can see, Im new to this forum.
I dont know about Android or iOS, but it is for sure available for WP. Its called "Shiftcalendar" and here is the linl:
http://www.windowsphone.com/de-de/store/app/shiftcalendar/dc765667-38af-4a0f-bd64-17bbe99906c4
German version is called "Schichtplaner" and here is the link:
http://www.windowsphone.com/de-de/store/app/schichtplaner/bae8ca14-4f83-4680-a72e-b470716b29c6
I would buy any of them, but unforunately I dont have any credit card and due to Microsoft restrictions, there is no other way... ((

Sorry, can't help you. You can be banned from the forum making such a request. My idea is this: Try signing up for Bing Rewards, and you might be able to use your rewards points to buy some credit on the Windows Phone Market Place. Not sure if they have a reward for that, but its worth a shot.
