This has being bugging me for some time now
It was very easy in WinMo 6.1 but now dragging with the stylus actually scrolls up and down but does not let me select multiple files
Is there anyway that i can select multiple sequential or random files, of course using the File Explorer
My HTC Touch2 does not have a keyboard with the ctrl key
And i know i can use a 3rd party software but is selecting multiple files really thrown out of a newer version of WinMo?? :S

Thanx a lot my friend
Not to sound rude but I already know about Total Commander and installed it
My question is why Microsoft dumped a VERY VERY important feature in its File Explorer in a NEWER version of it's mobile operating system :S
That kinda sux, doesn't it ?
Hey there,
They havent dumped it just that you have to do it a different way now.
If ur in text messaging for example, click menu, options then select all/several then do what you want. Same kinda thing applies to file exp, email etc.
Remember 6.5 is supposed to be more finger friendly hence selecting this way avoids slips of the finger lol.
You'll get used to it
Cheers.

Hello I was browsing the forums to find the remote desktop application which comes with windows mobile 6.1 since it was not included in my brand new HTC Touch Pro (don't know why HTC decided to remove it in the first place) and I found a cab file in one of the threads. However when I installed the application is listed as "wpctsc" in the programs menu.
Is there a way to rename it (probably through registry) intro something that makes a little more sense?
I don`t know if it works with regular File Explorer, but Total Commander allows you to go in the Windows > Start Menu > and there is a list of applications which you can see in Start Menu and in Programs Menu, just scroll in the application you want to rename and vòila ? Do not remove .Ink from the filename.. >_>
Thank you very much that worked great!!!
Please bear with me, as this is my first windows mobile phone and I'm not all too familiar with it.
First problem is, tapping "Launch Browser" on the Internet tab does not work. After thinking about it for a while, I realized that the Opera browser was not installed on my device! Now, as far as I know, it should come already in all devices. So, I downloaded the Opera 9.5 browser off their website. How can I set it up so when I tap "Launch Browser" on the Internet tab, Opera 9.5 will automatically run? Currently tapping it still does nothing.
Second is, I've been hearing about this "Windows" folder in the HTC Touch Pro. I can't seem to locate this. When I browse for it with my computer, the name of the TP's "hard drive" is "\", and then I see the following folders:
Application Data, ConnMgr, Content, Documents and Settings, Music, My Documents, Program Files, cemail (hidden file), pim
Is this root folder the "Windows" folder?
Third thing is, in the "Programs" tab in TF3D, there's this icon there that when I press (looks like the default icon for a folder in Vista), it gives me an error. It says "The file 'wt5jetpr' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
There we go, that's all. Thank you, if you've read this far.
I can't help with the Opera thing but as for your Windows folder, it's a system file and hidden. You will have to unhide it in your Vista/XP operating system before you can see it using your PC>
You see, I already enabled the viewing of hidden folders. There aren't any other items other than the ones I listed.
EDIT: I tried creating a folder called "Windows" and Vista tells me I can't, because a folder of the same name already exists.
That's weird.. hidden folders are already enabled and I still can't see it.
Hiya, i'm a bit of a noob myselft with regards to wm6.1 so for the opera issue i dont think i could be much help with that same with the file that wont delete so i hope someone else will answer that, to see ur windows folder though when the phone is connected to the pc open up explorer on ur pc and click on tools/folder options then click on view and make sure either the "hide protected operating system files" box is unchecked &/or the "show hidden system files box is checked and this should let you see the windows folder.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: looks like someone already answered in the time it took me to type that, my own fault for multitasking ...

Same thing as you, when I browse to the device from Windows Explorer.
However, if I go to Tools - Folder Options - View tab and I select "Show hidden files and folders", the Windows directory is displayed.

By the name, it looks like it is JetCet Print 5.
Strange you have these errors. Do you use a custom ROM?
PS: been too slow to answer too. but at least the answers match ;-)
I'm not using a custom rom =\. The rom came with my device.
It's:
1.90.405.1.WWE
It's a HTC Touch Pro T7272
Then I advise you to do a Hard Reset. Opera and JetCet print should be there, and should not give you any certificate errors.
I advise you to read a lot these forums, gather as much info as you can, and experimenting with your device. You have a powerhouse in your hands, you know? you have unlimited possibilities. Any questions should you have must be asked.
Alright, I'll give that a try tomorrow after the day's gone so I have lots of time to figure things out.
Sorry for the double post, but I figure this message won't get read if I simply edit my last post.
Anyways, I hard resetted the device and I got Opera and that printing program working! Thanks creiz.
Just one last thing I'm trying to figure out.. is there any way I can get a custom alarm ring tone without downloading a program? (I'm trying to avoid having to do that if possible)
http://www.resco.net/company/press/releases/2010-01-26.htm
in this link from TOMORROW )), you can read that one of the best explorers for WM is going to be released. Or is released. Or...
Yea, I've been running the beta for a while...it's very finger friendly
Anyway to assign the resco task manager (used in the today plugin) to shortcut or hardware button ? It would be great !

Yep, will be fine. I'm sure some skilled user can tell us where we can find the shortcut, or how create it.

This should be relatively easy if the task manager is a standalone application. I dont know if it is because I havent installed it yet. But someone of you who has the new program installed could search his sytem for a exe file that runs the manager. If such an exe exists in the system, all you have to do is to create a shortcut with .lnk extension to that exe file and place the shortcut in the Windows folder and rename it to "long_send.lnk" or "long_end.lnk". After that it should open after long pressing of the send key or end key
The news aren't any longer on the website! Finally resco maybe decided to release it later!?
Here you go... Press Releases

I also prefer TotalCommander as I use it on my PC since years. But is there any chance to get it more finger-friendly? I've seen that the most recent beta which is recommended for 6.5 still has the old UI.
download available now i think!

It's not working so well for me. Scrolling is unresponsive at times, it's slow to navigate between pages and the 'Rename' option from the 'File' menu doesn't work at all
I'm back to the 2008 version.
A point which nobody seems to have mentioned: This program costs $30! The demo is restricted to 7 days and, like all of their products, the full price isn't even shown on the page :/ You have to add it to the cart to see how much it is.
The competition (ie. Total Commander) is totally free. If you enable large icons in TotalCommander then it's just as finger friendly and also has its own advantages..

The taskmanager (RTask.exe) is indeed a standalone program and is located in "Program Files\Resco Today Plugin.

Getting pandora Radio to work on HD2 ( for WVGA devices )
-If you intall the new pandora radio cab for VGA devices from the pandora website you would need to pay for the service
-If you Install the old pandora cab the buttos are all over the place and their too small
This guide is for fixing all of that and gettig it to work properly on your HD2
(UPDATE)
You can just Download the .cab file from Here
Then go to >start>settings>Personal>Buttons> and assign the Send Key(Hold) Under> 2. Assign a program: and select Input Panel.
Assigning that key is for enabling the keyboar as the keyboard is not going to pop up automatically after assigning the key just press and hold the send/green phone button and the keyboard should pop up so you can type in your login info.
OR TRY THIS
1. Download VGA Pandora Files.zip from Here
2. Unzip it and copy the 4 files to your SD card
3. Open file explorer and Install the pandora cab, advance config tool cab, you will need Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5 to install avanced config tool so if you dont have it already in your phone install the NETCFv35.wm.armv4i cab
4. Open pandora radio from the start menu and enter your credentials or create a new acc (dont skip this step becuase if you leave it for last you wont have a keyboard to enter your credentials so you MUST DO IT NOW) once you are logged in you will nottice that the buttons are all over the place dont worry about that and close the pandora app
5. Open Advce configuration tool from the start menu and navigate to Network>TCP Window and change the value to 98304
6. Save your changes, and soft-reset.
7. Go in to file explorer and replace the orginal pandora.exe (in \Program Files\Pandora\Pandora.exe) with the pandora.exe from VGA Pandora Files.zip (the last of the 4 files I asked you to move to your SD)
8. ENJOY
Seems to be a problem for UK users to access the service - copyright issues. So I assume this is for US only... unless anyone knows differently.
thnx everything worked except that u can't create new stations because there is no keyboard. is that how its supposed to be? I mean ill settle fir this tho its better than nothing at all. thnx anyways tho. still great.
...or you can get the WVGA version for the TP2. Am I missing something here?
http://fluffyphones.com/fluffy-apps/pandora-htc-touch-pro-2-rhodium-wvga-windows-mobile-download/
That's what I have and it works excellent on the HD2 -- buttons and everything. The only problem that I encounter is that I can't seem to receive incoming calls when Pandora is playing.

Go into settings. Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Buttons.
Change "Send Key (Hold)" to "<Input Panel>". (you prob have to change the other "Button"s to different assignments. I changed them to random things and haven't encountered any problems yet) Exit out.
Now when pandora needs you to type, just long press the Send key and the keyboard should popup.

I installed the CAB but I can't seem to get into "settings" as described above. Is "Menu" located somewhere while Pandora is running?
Works but is u-ugly
Great setup, works wonderfully. Is there a way to make this appear more formatted to the HD2 screen? Everything is bunched at the bottom for controls and the images are to right overlapping in the middle.
Thanks all!

Still trying to get keyboard
When i attempt to change the voice command to text input it doesn't stay. When i leave the page it goes back to voice command. Is there something I'm supposed to do? I tried double clicking but that didn't do anything. It just won't stay on text input. Can anyone help me?

Start/Settings/Personal/Buttons
Make sure the Button (Send key/Hold) is highlighted. Then scroll up to <Input Panel>. You should see the assignment change then hit OK.
If the Button is not highlighted it will not make the change.

I got this to work. First, I installed Resco Explorer (Free 7 day trial): at
(I tried posting links to each cab, but as a new user, I can't post links...sorry.)
Next, I installed Zoomer (German site, but the App is in English):
(Link Removed)
(Original Zoomer XDA post:
(Link Removed)
and I installed the Pandora TP2 app found here:
(Link removed)
After these three apps were installed, I opened Resco Explorer, and found the Pandora app that had been previously installed. When I opened Pandora from within Resco, the on-screen key to bring up the keyboard was present. I simply was able to click on each field in Pandora, and hit the soft key to being up the keyboard. Once I entered my login information, Pandora simply started to work. I then ended all programs, opened up Zoomer, picked Pandora from Zoomer's list, and did a soft reset. Now when I open Pandora from the WinMo honeycomb, I can pinch and zoom (and reposition the zoomed portion of the screen) to make things easier to work with.
I followed this procedure on both my and my wife's new TMoUS HD2s and the the Pandora works fine on both.
Good luck.
(P.S. I like the Resco functionality, so I'll be buying the program after the trial ends)

Sign up online first on say your desktop or laptop and then all you have to do is log in on phone and all your stations will be there.

This worked perfectly for me. From my HD2's HOME SCREEN (not in Pandora) I navigated to Settings, Menu, All Settings, Personal, Buttons to change Send (long press) to (Input Panel)
Thanks!
what worked for me
i just had the same problem. i just pressed the home key went to the task manager then selected pandora and when i went back the keyboard was there again. repeat process for all of the fields and there you go free misic. thanks for the great work guys.
The first post mentions "the new pandora radio cab for VGA devices from the pandora website".
I might be willing to pay $3 for a more *official* way of making Pandora work on my HD2. My question is: Where on the Pandora site is this $3 cab file? I can't find it.
fucntions perfectly, first time install without incident.
thanks for the work!
There is no CTRL key on my TP2 Verizon Version. Please tell me a way to select multiple files in file explorer
what version of windows are you running? on 6.1 if you change the on screen keyboard to the old school windows one there is a control key. as for 6.5 that I upgraded to, that keyboard is no longer an option so I dont know what to do. cant seem to program one on the keyboard with the rhodium keyboard controller
I am on WM6.5 and I can't figure out any way to multiselect files. I did have this option on 6.1 though and i searched the forums as well but didnt find anything thats why i posted a new topic
use something like total commander to select multiple files
Resco Explorer my friend, default explorer doent have this option
