How could I back-up Samsung SGH-i600 ROM?
>I've just got a brand new one today (along with 1Gb SD card)
>I'd like to UpGrade it to WM6, but need insurance: I can reverse it back
..for those who succeeded UpGrade to WM6, any one feels sorry and need to reverse to Original Version? Why?
I'm sorry for too demanding, any help is appreciate
..sorry for my English
Hello Community and Experts ;-)
I am really new to this ROM-things and this is my question too. Maybe some experts here can help me out. Would be fine
I got my brand new European Samsung SGH-i600 with QWERTY keyboard these days with ROM-Version i600XXGC2. Can somenone tell me, what kind of ROM this is? And is there a newer Firmware for my device?
And now I would like to know if i can roll back to WM5 if I upgrade to WM6 and don't want to keep it and HOW TO DO THIS.
Can i backup my current ROM exately like it's now, so i will have the same i600 i have now? Is this possible? And how to do this?
And with my i600 came the original WM5 disc. So can I install from this disc to WM5 again, if i don't want to keep WM6 and have the same state like now?
Would be really nice, if someone could help me out. I'm not afraid of experimenting with my device
Oh, two more questions
When i upgrade to WM6, is there a possibility to install and use the Carousel Home Screen? I like it very much in WM5 and would like to use it again in WM6.
And is there a possibility to make some settings in the internal mail program or a registry hack so that the mail programm does not delete the mails from the server when i delete it in the program?
Thank you for your help

HTC Touch Pro
anyone have new programs for the HTC Touch Pro with windows 6.1 operating system... I am tired of those Fruity phones having neat programs and I don't...
I hate fruit!

Hello!
I have got the Xda Diamond (~HTC Diamond from o2 Germany) with Windows mobile 6.1
I´m studying at the Technological University of Berlin. To log on the local area network (eduroam) of the university, I need a VPN client. But there is no version working with WM6.1, I tried about three different clients (it always says, that ... is no win32-application)
For example that one (as recommended by the network administration of the TU Berlin):
http://www.tubit.tu-berlin.de/filea.../Windows_Mobile/SecureW2_EAP_Suite_112_CE.zip
Does anybody which client I should take?
Thank You for answering and greetings from Germany
Network storage application
I would like to have an application that could convert my micro-sd card into a network storage, being able to access this folder through my home lan. It would be similar to WM5torage but for WiFi (not usb).
Please note that I'm NOT asking for a way to access a network folder in my PDA (the usual reply I get). I already know how to do this with total commander. What I want is a way to create a shared folder inside Windos Mobile, that I can access from my computer through my home network.
TIA.
Visual Voicemail
I think that Visual Voicemail is a place where Windows Mobile is lacking compared to the iPhone.
It would function by receiving emails with mp3/wav attachments from online voicemail services such as Youmail. It would cypher the information from the email and provide information for that voicemail.
There is a discussion on the topic right now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
A developer has started toying with it but NEEDS help!
Thanks everyone!
Hi
Im using Imate Jam (Magician).
I want a software which turns my ppc into an answering machine i-e it can automatically reply/block sms and accept/reject/hang/answer calls based on predetermined rules. The software should also have the capablity of scheduling text messages and then sending them out smoothly.
Ill be extremely grateful if you help me out and provide such software.
If such software already exists please pardon me and tell me where to get it.

MOD EDIT 2: User is looking for something that supports wm 2003
i think my request would be somewhat easy to accomplish, but as im not so technically inclined (and somewhat too lazy to really try), ill ask here....
....what im looking for is a way to have area code matching on my Kaiser, or on Windows Mobile phones in general.....what i mean is like, when i receive or place a call, once the number is dialed, it shows the state corresponding to the area code i've dialed.....i know my old Samsung A920 did this, along with some other Samsung and Sanyo phones, and i think it would be great for WinMo....
Yet another think XDA's lack is a Myspace app. Maybe we can get something rolling like this facebook app that is being created???

Please back me up if you would like to see an app like this.
A "visual voicemail" app for diamond and other ppc phones that can record phone calls
as some of you may already know the diamond can record both sides of a conversation during a phone call using the notes application.
I read in another forum where someone was asking about visual voicemail and since sprint charges for forwarding calls there is no good option.
I was thinking maybe if there was a developer willing to give it a go to develop a "visual voicemail" application that would answer the phone after a user defined amount of rings,
Record the message while muting the phone's mic of course that way you don't get background noise from your own phone and then save it in mp3 or wav.
Then have it give you the phone number the time, date and the option to listen to the message either with a built-in player or with windows media.
To give you a visual of what i'm talking about if you've seen the visual voicemail app on the samsung instinct something like that but everything is done on the phone side.
Hopefully someone will agree that this would be a useful program and give it a shot.

Jeyo Mobile Companion alternative and HTC Phone pad Upgrade
Well my request wouldnt be new anymore but i still want to pursue it if ever a developer would make it,
a jeyo mobiler software like, that can manage your text messages from the pc, send, recieve and read text messages from the pc and lastly a decent back up process that could backup even if ur message is over 160 characters (1 message line) jeyo has a screw up on the back up process coz, it shortens a text message fixed to 160, so if your text message is 165, if jeyo is to back it up it will only store a 160 char message back up. you lost the data. I need to back up morethan 5000 messages and most of which are over 160 character.
another request would be a newer version for HTC phone pad input..
this input application ROCKS! its like using a cellphone keypad over your pocket pc. so texting wouldnt be so much of a problem if your walking or something. the modification i would like to ask is character deletion from 2 character to one and higher WM version compatibility, as I tried it before, phone pad had issues with WM6.1.
alarm sound on vibrate/silent?
in some ROM's there is an option under "more" in clock & alarms that allows you to enable the alarm sounding when on silent or vibrate. does anyone know of a CAB that you can install that will add this feature without downloading the whole ROM'?
VGA Backgrounds
Looking for a VGA background using orange & blue and/or the Florida Gators, University of Florida, UF, Gators... you get the idea. If not familiar with what shades of orange & blue... see examples of the latter.
I use TF3D, so I'm not looking for full out themes- no TSK files please.
Is there an application to delete a file && is there an application to run commands like dos batch??? my target is to make an installing cab that on the next startup start an application and then delete the file started or the link to the started application
PLZ coul you help me?!?!?

Just bought a phone with WM6.1 and restored messages from my old Hermes 200 [yeh]; it's like few thousands and everytime I want to read one, system loads dozens of historical sms, what takes time and needs patience [which I, of course, lack] - but why? Isn't there any way to change it into standard sms-viewing, like it was in WM5: one click = one message, no history, no conversation, no threading? It looks better and is much more useful for me [because I don't need primitive machine to remind me what I'm talking about; I'm careful what I write ..].
Thanks in advance for any help,

The Solution

I've done some more digging and came to the solution - this guy found it and described: inthehand.com/blogs/peterfoot/archive/2008/04/08/disable-windows-mobile-6-1-threaded-sms-view.aspx [P. Foot's solution]
In my case, it wasn't about adding new key, but changing existing one in '..\settings\oem'
Enjoy!

Hi
I used to be on this forum back in the early 2000s, and a regular contributor using my XDAs (Xda, XDA II, IIs, Exec, the Ameo (bad idea for usability, but the screen was great) and the Tytn II. Half way through the last one, I switched to the iPhone.
That pointless bit of information aside, I recently came across some old data from 2007 - 2010 and I’ve really enjoyed looking through all the backups and saved data from that period in my life. However, I’ve also found a PIM Backup err..backup...that I would like to get access to - but there seems to be no method of getting access to this without an old WM PPC phone.
I am aware that you can download an emulator for old version of WM5, 6 PPC etc, but I’ve been struggling to get the right combination of OS and installed SPs or Visual Studio et al in order to get the thing working. I therefore have two questions:
Does anyone know of any way in which to extract data from those PIMB backups?
Can someone please give me a proper rundown of how to get a working emulation of WM5 or WM6 for Pocket PC, so that if necessary I can install PIMB and extract the data that way?
Any help would be really appreciated, and it’s good to see this site doing so well - even if it’s completely changed focus and design since I was a regular here.
Cheers
Ant
In the end I figured it out. I had to download MS Visual Studio 8, and then the WM PPC 6 Refresh kit, then download the ROM for WM PPC 5 / 6. Even then it wasn’t perfect as the data I wanted included SMS, but the ROM doesn’t have an SMS inbox, so kept crashing. Fortunately, it throws out the CSM files of the data before the crash, so I was able to get the data (call logs, messages, tasks etc) all out.
All’s well that ends well, and if anyone else has the same issue, this is another little internet breadcrumb of how to do this.
Cheers
Ant
