Hi,
I am using WorldMate Pro 2005 on a XDA III (Blue Angel) and after making extensive changes to the packing list, my system developed a problem (Pocket Outlook would no longer start) and the only solution was to do a hard reset and reinstall the software.
After reinstalling WorldMate Pro, the standard packing list was back and all my careful work setting up my own items was gone. As I had copied all the files from the previous installation to my PC, I then started looking for some configuration file containing all my changes. I found the standard entries in wmproresources.dll but the changes were not stored in that file. In fact I could not find any files containing my updates and the registry did not help either.
Does anyone know where this data is stored and how I can restore it to my XDA III?
Regards
Peter
After upgrading ActiveSync from v4.2 to v4.5, I can no longer see the list of PocketPC software located on my PC which can be installed on the PocketPC via ActiveSync.
What can I do to see them again in the Add/Remove Program list ?
cf. screenshot (only the software installed on the PocketPC are listed, what I do to have the PocketPC software located on my PC again ?)
Thanks for any help !
if you install them again on the pc they should show up
though it say they are already installed on ppc and if you want to leave it alone just say yes

The problem is that I already have lots of PocketPC application on my PC that I would like to install on my PocketPC... but I can not longer do that via Activesync because I can not see these programs in the 'Add/Remove programs' list
Not sure if this helps you... But check this out
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AppMgr\Apps\
I've had a problem once, that my ActiveSync didn't want to install any apps to the smartphone again. So I searched in the damn registry and I found huge list of old applications which I uninstalled. So I removed from registry the old orphaned keys, and somehow AS allowed me to install again.
This registry key shows all the apps which are installed via ActiveSync. To say it little easy - what you see in ActiveSync should be also in the registry.
or reinstall them on the pc then they will show up no matter what will not take up more hd space as it will overwrite the old entries

OK, so now I understand where all these information are located.
Unfortunately the above registry key was empty on my computer
Everything as been removed by ActiveSync automatic upgrade
Thanks for your information. Next I will be smarter, and make a registry export before
ALL MY CONTACT (outlook) is lost did a system restore and no luck where did they all go? anyone had this problem?
PLEASE CAN ANYONE TELL ME if there is anyway to recover these data from my mobile !!!! Any place where these deleted items could be retrieved from ?Any recovery tool that i could use ???
PS: I have not performed any soft or hard reset of my mobile yet...
Thanks in advance for your help...
Look on your PC in deleted items in Outlook. This happened to me as well and I was able to restore everything. Also check your activesync settings to make sure they don't overide the PDA contacts.
thanks for the fast reply, how did you restore it? did you have to do it one by one?
thanks in advance...
Just select ALL then drag and drop in the contact folder
hopefully
hopefully you have also an answer to my problem:
i tried to synch the data of "my documents" (htc x7500) with my pc.
unfortunately after this procedure half of the mobile files have disappeared.
is there any chance to recover these lost files?
thank you very much in advance!!!
People People People. Seriously READ the screens when setting stuff up. The time it takes to do that will save you headaches later. If you have stuff on your PDA and then Set up to Sync from your PC; the PC files take Precedence and will "Clear" the PDA files that are not on the PC. Now if you read, your ActiveSync should allow you to "Keep Files ON PDA" or something. Thusly, it wont delete files that are on the PDA but not the PC.

I made this mistake and almost had a complete disaster. All my life's contacts, tasks (I'm big with tasks), appointments. I nearly died. It's cause I was moving to new computer, it wouldn't accept the blimmin' outlook.pst I'd backed up (thanks microsoft), and I didn't see that option in WMDC to replace items on desktop, not phone. So when setting up new partnership with new computer, it wiped my entire phone's data! I experienced genuine dread. That setting is actually a little hard to find and notice.
Miraculously the data was still in deleted items on my friend's computer's unused outlook that I was using beforehand! I recovered most items that way...(onto phone then from there to new laptop). Struth! (just cause I said blimmin' before without noticing it)

thank you for your answer!
i was always very careful about this feature and put this setting to "replace element on desktop" (so i felt safe and backupped my PDA to the PC).
but even so, it went wrong when synching "files".
now they are deleted on the PDA.
my question: is there any possibility of restoring these deleted files on my HTC x7500?
thank you VERY much in advance!!!
2nd attempt
hopefully any of you pda-experts will answer me, if there is still hope for my files, or are they absolutely lost?

Hi All,
I'm trying to map network drive using the Resco Explorer, however Resco does not see the SAMBA (3.2.5) shares
There is nothing in sambas log suggesting the HD2 is trying to connect.
I had no problems with wm6.1 but on my 6.5.x it doesn't work.
I was searching the forum but couldn't find the answer. Anyone has an idea? Maybe someone managed to solve this?
maybe this?

instead of COMPUTER\DISK, try this: \\COMPUTER\SharedDocs (=name of the shared folder on my pc)
this works with me, good luck!

Yep, I did exactly this the other day.
Resco doesn't see samba shares directly (like a windows PC would see them in my network places or whatever), so you have to tell Resco the location.
I have an ubuntu server called "ubuntu", and my shares are "music", "photos" and so on. To get resco to see the shares I typed:
\\ubuntu\music
\\ubuntu\photos
etc...
Note, it wont work based on IP addresses (that was what originally caused my problem).
To find out your PC name (if you don't know it) on a windows machine, hold the windows key, hit pause break, and then click on computer name (this is for XP).
Cheers.
blog post about this very subject
I got it too sometimes. I dont know the reason tho.
But hey it is so easy to set it up manually.
It is longer but will work anyways. Try the method the guy 2 posts above me posted with \\COMPUTERNAME\SHAREDFOLDER
WIll work if you are in the same network.
Ah and make sure not to connect via mobile network but with WiFi as then you are not in the same net.
Thanks all of you!
It works at least partially...
Works for shares without password, doesn't work for password protected shares.When i put \\computer\myshare and then press ok then I'm asked for user name and password. As soon as I fill them in the application freezes (maybe it tries to connect?) I gave it 5 minutes and then I had to reset HD2
Strange problem
I reinstalled resco but no improvements.
Thanks again
Yeah i noticed that one too.
Do not use pass protection on shares.
It must be a bug in the Resco Explorer.
Before i thought i made a fault but i never tried it out again as i assume a freeze as not too good for the device LOL
I'm not sure where the problem is. I tried the same on P3600 (trinity) with wm6.5. It does not freeze, but is re-asking for credentials, so I guess there are two problems:
1) resco on hd2 freezes (probably when the resco cannot connect - bug)
2) authentication problem?
Probably I'll skip the password protection until someone will find the solution...
Works fine here. It sees the shares on my XP machine, but not on the 2 Win7 ones so I have to enter them manually for those. All 3 have password protection.
On one of the W7 machines it "freezes" for about 10 seconds the first time I access the share after a soft reset, for the others it comes instantly. But that particular volume is huge (a 80% full 1.5TB drive) so it might have to do with it if it lists the contents, the others only have like 30GB on them.
You might want to try menu->settings, if you have data active as well as wifi then uncheck autodetection, and delete the network entry (or entries) that aren't your local wifi.
It can happen that it finds nothing or hangs if it tries searching the cell provider's network (that can have tons of hosts) instead of your local one.

Yes - no problem for windows, I'm struggling with SAMBA (linux) shares.
Fixed freezing/credential issues when mapping drives on my HD2
Hi guys,
I had the same problem of my HTC HD2 freezing in the Network Log On dialogue when trying to map a drive, and also the issue where I was repeatedly asked for credentials which would never save. I managed to solve this issue, though in my case the problem was actually due to the network share settings on my NAS device (which is a QNAP TS-109).
What I did to remedy my problem was:
Go to the Administration page through the web-based interface for my TS-109.
Go to the Access Right Management menu.
Go to the Share Folders section.
Click on the Access Control icon for the folder I wanted to map.
Under the Guest Access Right drop-down menu I changed Deny Access to Read Only.
After that I was able to log in with my admin username and password, and to save the mapped drive on my HTC HD2 (I mapped drives successfully using both Resco File Explorer 2010 and HTC Network Plugin 1.0).
Hopefully this will work for anyone else experiencing this problem with a QNAP NAS, or if not then hopefully following similar steps on your NAS will yield favourable results.
Kate.
I am using HD2 with a Qnap NAS . Initially , got problem mapping drive as described by previous post . I did not do any changes on NAS . But , in the resco password page , i uncheck permanent login . Seems did the trick . Able to mapped folder on the NAS , even Hidden folders also . Hope this helps .

I've post this in Resco Explorer Forum, just yesterday:
Re: File Explorer hangs when mapping Network Drive on WM 6.5
First, excuse me for my bad english (I'm italian).
I think to be solved the bug in this mode (I've a Netgear STORA NAS):
- select "Work" instead of "Internet settings" in wi-fi network adapter
- select "Work" instead of "Internet settings" in your wi-fi connection
Now, I can succesfully map all my shared resources and add them in "My Network", but I can't use wi-fi to connect in Internet.
So I've revert both the above settings to "Internet settings" ad all it's ok, browsing in Internet and accessing to my network folder on NAS.
I think that the bug is present only when we try to map a network folder the first time.
I hope to be useful to solve our problem.
Bye
Although last post is long time ago, and mine is too recent. yet I hope it would be useful to somebody, and be able to repay the great advantages I myself got from XDA forum.
HardwareC with Win7 Home Prem, HTC HD2 with RescoExplorer v.8, Wifi Connection
first, as most of the posts, I can see PC while mapping in RescoExplorer.
yet when expanding the +, I had to enter username and password, then I get an error.
well, what I did is that I shared a folder with everyone full access on my PC.
then on resco mapping I typed the full path, i.e. \\computername\sharedfolder
then, I got it...
NOTE: when exiting Resco, and accessing the mapped folder, I still had to enter my windows username and password to access my PC shared folder that has no password...
Thus, I think when sharing a folder with a password, Resco goes nuts. for two passwords must be applied...
Hi!
My touchscreen stopped working and I really need to get my new sms's and contact list from the the phone (TD2). Is this possible? I'm able to browse to phone while connected through usb in Vista but I don't know where the information is located and whether or not it's viewable from Windows.
Any solution to this?

search an application named "my phone explorer" for ppc.

Weird, the software says "can't find the phone" after searching through com-ports. Though windows finds it and I can brows it through explorer.
Anyone knows a fix for this or any other way to get this information. My phone explorer looks good though and exactly what I need but it's strange I can't get it to find my phone....
edit: As I mentioned I use USB but that's not an option in the settings next to "port".. I can only chose "COM1"
Use My Mobiler to view your PPC TD2 screen on your PC (link in my signature)
You can extract sms & contacts using PIMbackup (found free on xda or via google) or many other software backup options.
If the above fails to work you can copy the pim & cemail file from your phone device directory.

First, thanks alot for the help. Second, My mobiler needed me to confirm on touch screen on my phone which is not possible, a software like this without this would of been perfect.
PIMback doesnt seem to work with Windows 7 or I need some additional files/apps 'cause it says its not a valid win32 software..
Still, I try to get it to work, meanwhile I'd appreciate if anyone has more suggestions to share. I've been looking around but is unable to find programs that work. Pretty puzzled why this is such a hard task.....
Where is the pim and cemail files located`? I find a pim file but what is the best way to view these?
Edit: I see pimbackup is a program for windows mobile. I need a program for windows OR a program which could extract the information from pim and cemail files or any other way to get this info
....one more thing, it seems impossible to read or copy the fil "cemail".. it says the file is being used or something.. guess my hope of retrieving the sms's and so on are gone.. I was able to copy the pim.vol file though... maybe I will be able to get my numbers, but how?....
The manual files of My Mobiler launched Via PC has never asked for input via PPC screen n any installation I have done & have used it on a couple of broken screen devices for work employees.
You can load your pim file to another device or WM PC emulator to recover data, or forward to me (PM me) & I will try make recovery files you can view via PC & use to install to another device.
Jeyo Mobile Companion worked for me.
