i simply used the installation instructions, i have no idea of this stuff, its all new to me but it should be a solution, i know someone here has one or at least i hope
what should i do? do i have to flash the rom?
what it means exactly? it 's like making a format like on a home computer?

WM6 help

Hi guys! Haven't been on here for ages! This week my new WM6 I-mate Ultimate 9502 came, so I ditched Symbian and I'm back on Windows Mobile!
I have tinkered a fair bit, but there are a couple of things I can't figure out.
1. I bought the device sim free, and I'm having trouble setting up MMS. When I put my UK voda sim in it automatically downloaded some settings, but I think they're wrong because whenever someone sent me an MMS, I'd just get an SMS telling me to go and collect it off the voda website. I fiddled with it, and now it doesn't do anything at all so if anyone could give me a step by step guide it'd be great. I tried using this guide, but it didn't work:
http://www.3g.co.uk/3GForum/showthread.php?t=74503
I think maybe I need more info on setting up the MMS application options themselves.
I remember my Wizard used to do this, but I somehow managed to set it up in the end.
2. My pal has a Toshiba G900 and I have seen him viewing normal Youtube/myspace with all the embeded flash working. I can't remember what browser or flash plugin he used. Does anyone know how to view flash content within a browser?
3. What app can I use to overclock? I used to use Omapclock on my wizard, but the 9502 uses a Qualcomm processor.
Cheers,
Mike
No takers eh?
I think I have asorted the MMS settings by using the HTC installer.
I also now realise that the reason I couldn't find a qualcomm CPU overclocker is because they don't exist.
Still looking for a flash-in-browser solution if anyone can help?

Trying to gather t32+ users

Hi,
I am a proud owner of a t32+ daxian x999+.
I am searching for other users of this phone.
Althought my phone is currently in repair in China , I still think it is wonderful device.
I hope al the users will gather here so we can help eachother.
I would like to know for example if anybody has succeeded in overclocking with omapclock. And if he did at which Mhz?
Also very interested in which software you guys are using. Which software runs very good and which not so well.
I have running SPBmobile Shell 2.0
TCPMP with flv support
Tman 0.9.10
SPB imageer
S2u2 1.05
S2V 0.35
S2P 0.4
PocketCM Imageviewer 0.4 and 0.8
Opera Mobile 8.65
SKtools 4.1.25.3
Esmertec Jbed Java for playing touchscreen games
SPB freecell
SPB Sudoku
SPB Brain Evolution
Still looking for a better luancher than Mobile Shell.
Has anyone used Ifonz yet or throttlelauncher?
Those look very nice too.
Also I am not sure the T32+ is compatible with 8Gb SDHC tf cards.
All your help is welcome.

Hi
I'm Selling mine, to buy the real one, an iPhone, Diamond or maybe an Omnia I900, but let me tell you, the microSDHC does work fine on this phone, just need to replace the system files with this: SDHC_WM6WM5, look for it on the forum. I tested myself and it really works.
hey mate......
i own a x999+ and was not happy when i got it due to my 4gb sd card not being reckognised so it was like i was punched in the gut feeling, one i contacted their tech support through msn he gave me a driver and have never looked back since.......i love it, so many ppl want one and allllll ask ahh is that the iphone so i tell em noooooo, i wish it was another shape or look....
any way good to see a thread started and hopefully we can start a general session and answer some other peoples question.....
what was wrong with yours sine u have had to send it away.
thanks
alen
Somehow after a few crashes my rom got corrupted, it would not start anymore , not even a hardreset.
I tried to overclock the cpu a few times with no luck.
Maybe that killed the rom.

HI, I'm a proud owner too, so far no much complains about it, I'm not running any overclocking tool but actually using memmaid I could disable the damn flo cube myself and now the phone is running better, I'm switching between Ifonz and pointUI, but waiting impatiently for the Iswish or the even better and original Omnia touchwiz cab to appear I'm still very much attract by Iphone itself tough..but I must admit that this phone is a real treat, I think we should I found this forum for it as well as this http://www.i-clone.be/ ..keep posting about it so I won't feel alone!!
I bought mine at fastcardtech.com.
It is a Chinese webshop, but untill now they have been thrustworthy.
Took about 3 weeks from payment till delivery of the phone.
Now I must see how their service is gonna be. I have send my broken phone thuesday 2 weeks ago , but they say it has not arrived yet.
I cant track it , tnt said it could take 15 days , so I have to wait a little longer.
I will keep you posted about this and how they will handle my case at fastcardtech.
Is Ifonz running fine on the t32+?

what happend to ur phone?
@efjbedjong: Don't think it has anything to do with trying to overclock it, I tried to do that in the beginning (also to no avail) and after a couple of weeks the phone started crashing too... ROM is also corrupt now and have sent it back yesterday.
Am going to get the same phone, but am really not pleased with it anymore...
The cpu is too slow...
My setups were something like this:
* iFonz+s2v+s2u2+s2p+opera 9.5 etc... I thought iFonz ran too slow sometimes (sometimes it really RAN! but mostly it had to load a very long time)
* Image Viewer 0.9: prefer this one over s2v
* Spb Pocket Plus: C-R-A-S-H-E-D a lot!
* SPB Mobile Shell: C-R-A-S-H-E-D a lot!
* iPhone theme with wisbar advance etc...: used too much space on my phone and had too little functionality. Preferred iFonz over this, although this is faster if you compare it.
* Resco Explorer: runs fluently and I really advise this!
* PocketCM Contacts: too slow...
* iContant: runs like a speeding bullet
* Thumbcalendar (old version): too little functionality but looked nice and acceptable speed
* Thumbcalendar (new version): acceptable speed and good functions... Would only like to have it faster. (AND FREE)
* Tom Tom 6: runs very fluently (yet don't have an external receiver, so only used the maps if I needed to know a route.)
* weatherpanel or pocket weather: can't remember which I used at the end, but one of them was super fast and easy to use...
* PCM Keyboard + iphone skin: with some of my own adaptions to the lay out ran very fluently but is annoying when you need to type letters in a message for a recipient and you cant reach the name with your stylus since the keyboard "slides" the screen up
* Resco keyboard: looks nice and easy to use, but had several problems so went back to pcm keyboard. I think this one didn't have problems with the contacts while messaging
* sdhc.777: best sdhc driver, worked immediately, whilst other drivers didn't or lost there "force" after a soft reset...
Hope I've helped
Millencolin do you still have the driver for the sdhc card. I bought a 4gb card and can't get it to work.

What did I say in my previous post?
You can't expect people to simply do everything for you...
Just look on google for sdhc.777 you'll have it immediately and it's the best for the x999+/t32+

Daxian t32+
I just ordered mine from factorymobilephones.com
I hope all goes well. I have an Iphone 3G well my Girlfriends now.
I Love Windows mobile. I will admit the iphone was easy to use.
But that's it. so dull. you can install anything. well anything useful.
I noticed the t32+ doesn't have 3g but i will sacrifice that for the
Windows Mobile OS.
Also Anyone ever run emulators on this? Morphgear or a Psx emu?
8GB Support
@Tmo_T32- These are the files I got with my T32 ( 8GB support) in a microSDcard that came with it. (You have to Unrar the file to get the original files, Readme included)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RT1Z6JTL
I have installed it in my T32 before posting here and my T32 is still alive and everything works as usual, that means its safe. I don't know whether it works or not because I don't have a 4GB or 8GB card.
PS. Use at your own risk.
Count me into the T32 users. I don't have Wifi or GPS, though.
Check out this post for my experiences with various programs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2568881&postcount=29
I'm now running DBH Slide2Unlock, SPB Pocket Plus, SPB Weather, SPB Brain Evolution, CE Total Commander, Opera Mini, Live Search, Youtubeplay (VERY slow), Yahoo! Go (slow), SPB Time, and SKTools.
I sometimes have to soft reset because Slide2Unlock sometimes freezes up.
I would just really love to have wifi. I don't need the GPS, really, with Live Search.
I have a 2gb card and really have no need for more memory.
I have to say, my BF has the T-Mobile Wing, and that thing is buggy as hell. So far, I love the phone, I just wish it had a bit more speed and power.
hey guys
to save having to install memaid to stop certain programs starting when you reboot your t32 if you launch
File Explorer-My Device-Windows-StartUp
there you will see some files that automaticly launch when unit reboots i have only left
Acc_Ap (not sure yet what this is)
QuickTaskManager (i belive this it the little task manager that alows you to close programs that a still running- its the drop down menu on the main screen)
USSD (i think this is the driver for the SD not really sure)
any way just rebooted without the touchflow (which i always thought was the driver for the screen and now i dont have it come up every time i slide from bottom up)
so far i have not had many or if any problems besides a rare lock up but a reboot fixes that and most of the time its probbably me pressing buttons 2 qucik than what it can handle
at the moment runnin
(also just hard reset it had alot of **** on it so i started clean)
Pointui Home
TomTom7
iFonz (will not run as frame net or sumthing is not up to date)
oh and SPB Shell ran fine not dramas at all (mind you it was the latest version)
any way any questions just ask......may take time to reply very busy.
Peace out from Australia.
So my phone will be send back from repair tomorrow.
Now I am really scared to install new apps.
Dont want to fry the rom again.
If only the standard Iphone menu was configurable.
I love the s2 products , but not sure I will install these again.
Maybe I just keep it stock for a few weeks.
Anybody any suggestions?
Eric
i c your point but i think it was jut bad luck as its a hardware issue that you rom was corrupter or what ever the fault is, like u said try it for a few weeks and c how u go nut personaly i would not hessitate to install anything on it, just dont try and over clock it, for all you know you might have changed a setting and only took a while for it to fault.
any way hope all goes well.
mc
So when I get it back there is really one thing I want to install.
Ifonz
Anybody can help with what version runs best on the t32+?
Latest is 1.04 but dunno if that runs fine.
Eric
1.04 runs good...
Btw: don't think it is just bad luck, there are several people (incl. me) with the same issues.
I would also recommend not to try to overclock the cpu... As you know this might cause malfunctioning hardware and I assume you did a background check on the OMAP processor before attempting this.
It has a maximum of 200mhz and since they probably didn't use the best connections I wouldn't even think about touching that part!
Also didn't think it is caused by s2p etc... What I did notice is that WAD, WA3, mobile shell etc... (not at the same time) that my x999+ started to fail and crashed. Maybe it was a coincidence and was the process of crashing already in progress, who knows...

No MMS - How Can I Enable/Add It?

Hi guys,
I downloaded a few ROM's over the last few days because I was not happy with some features or the stability of them. Eventually I decided upon Tomal's 8.81 ROM.
I am new to the HTC Universal and indeed Windows Mobile in general, though I am starting to grasp it. I purchased a Movistar version (Spanish) and corrected the keypad settings for the spanish language etc, but I have since realised that there is no MMS available on the ROM.
I actually need MMS for my business (I purchased the HTC Universal to use for business as I previously had a K800i with Opera and SSH etc running on it, but needed something better) so without MMS I cannot use the phone.
I would like to keep the phone as it is, with the ROM I have on it, because it has taken me a good few hours to set everything up as I like it, and the ROM is stable and very fast, and also has all the features I like.
So is there anyway I can add MMS to my messaging area? All I have right now is Text Message and Email, both of which are working fine. From what I understand it is not present in Windows Mobile 6, is this correct, and if so, what addon must I install to use it?
Also, as a side thought, I changed the GPRS settings to stay connected all the time and not on-demand, so the phone is connected all the time; where can I change it back to on-demand as I seem to have lost where it was.
Many thanks in advance!!
install it
Wow, this has worked a treat, many thanks friend, it is very much appreciated!!

satnav on old xda 2. is it possible

HI all, Ive just been given an old XDA 2 (II). It seems to work ok.
What is the latest version of Windows that this can run and is there a tutorial on how to install it
Before I invest any time or money could somebody give me a pointer as to if I could run tom tom with this?
If so what do i need?
I have used a nokia 6680 with a bluetooth receiver running tomtom and this worked fine. I am assuming the xda runs a different version.
If anybody could tell me where to start i would be very grateful.
Many Thanks
Richie
Check if you have an XDA II, aka Himalya or XDA IIi ala Alpine
Start - Settings - Device Info - Identity
PH10B - Himalaya
PH10C - Alpine
If it's a Himalaya you can upgrade it to WM6.1 or WM6.5. If an Alpine then you are stuck on WM2003.
As for SatNav TomTom 6.5 does install on a WM6.5 Himalaya, just, but i have been unable to test it due to not having a bluetooth GPS.
Thanks so much for a quick reply
Its PH10B so Himalaya
It seems to be windows 4.20.0 so quite far behind I'm guessing
Excellent
I assume I need to be connected to my PC to upgrade, the cradle/usb lead that came with it is not being recognised in XP on my machine.
Is there some drivers I need to download?
Have you installed Active Sync? Very easy to download from Microsoft.
For an updated ROM check the Himalaya section of this forum, there are many to choose from.
I have a Himalaya but it is purely for test purposes, my primary PPC is a Trinity.
Thanks, Active Sync installd, so simple when you know how.
USB now working
Are the ROMS the operating system(windows 6.5 etc)?
Ive now gone to the Himalaya thread.
I see my questions are already answered there
many Thanks
once you have worked out which device you have and can look in the right section most things have been answered already.
i seem to recall that when i installed TomTom 6.5 on my Himalaya it had to go on first and then i had to remove all the voices bar the one i wanted to ahve any space left for anything else. never actually used it as i don't have a BT GPS receiver.
Before i start to do anything could i just check something.
the three main things i would like to do are:
Upgrade the OS to the latest but more importantly most stable version
unlock the sim from 02 only
and add a decent satnav program.
What would be correct order to do this, obviously satnav last.
But does the os need to be done before the sim unlock?
Thinking back to my early days with the Himalaya, i unlocked it and then upgraded it.
Check out All in one SIM unlock to remove the SIM lock. I had success with the early version an one Himalaya and two work Alpines.
The upgrade will totally wipe the device so anthing that is installed will get deleted.
I tried the sim unlock tool but i get a 'does not know what program to open it' message did i miss something?
I flashed the rom ok to a few different versions, I'm going to try the one in your signature ather 6.1
I also tried lastest version of tomtom but it when it came to install it said not enough room? I tried installing an older version of tomtom and it worked fine.
Any tips on that?
I was using a 2gb card?
Can't remember much about the SIM unlock tool, only thing springing to mind is to check that are trying to run it direct on your PDA?
Only ever tried TomTom v6.5. Think the issue is that by default it installs all the foreign voices into System Storage, which once you get it installed and running you can delete and recover space.
Can't say as i use my Himalaya for much these days as i have Trinity.
After a few days of constant trying you get the hang of it in the end.
Thanks so much for the replys. Ive never used a pda before and to start using one thats 10 years old is a bit stupid. However i now have the latest version of tomtom all up and running in time for my london to turkey drive on monday.
I do have an iphone but not much good when there is no 3g to download the maps
Still didnt get the unlock tool to work but i shall keep trying.
Nothing stupid in using a Himalaya, especially as a satnav, the 3.5" screen is great for that.
It has also given you something to learn the basics on in case you take the jump to a WM phone.

Windows Live Messenger can't sign in in WM6.1 (need help)

There's WLM comes with WM6.1 in the PDA itself, when I wanna sign in, it shows an error "There's a connectivity problem. Make sure you're in an area with good reception and try again".
Previously I don't have this problem in signing in WLM, the wifi connection is perfect to do browsing and it is not slow at all.
But after I have installed an application to support Chinese language, WLM became like this, I'm unable to sign in.
How can I solve it?
Experts, please advise. Thanks for your time.
It happens to me too..
It happens to me too..
I think some Microsoft servers are under maintenance..start from yesterday until today.. but it's only on my phone (HTC Touch Pro T7272), there's no problem with Windows Live on my laptop (Sony VAIO VGN-CR23G)
i found out the way already Found on the Internet, only 3 steps needed.
For those HTC Touch Pro (Windows Mobile 6.1, tested) users who wanna install Chinese (that is able to read and write chinese words), take these 3 steps, it won't affect your Windows Live Messenger.
Step 1:
Install sunglobe.cab.
Step 2:
Install CEStar-Crack.cab.
Step 3:
Install PlumSIP V6.0.0011.cab.
It works on my Touch Pro. Hope it works for yours.
