Song Recognition

Hi,
my brother in law recently got a sony 850i, this phone has the ability to tell you the name of a track and artist that you play into its mic. it does a search against an online database and then returns you infomation about the song (presumably with options to buy the ring tone...)
it works in a similar way to shazam, but it's free (not 50pence per tack like shazam!)
does any one know of ANY windows, or windows mobile software than can do this kind of audio fingerprint and search features? I would love to be able to tag music from the radio with my PPC whilst im out and about!

yeah I would be interested tooo

I have found what i assume is the correct application you are talking about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305897
and have downloaded the app.
installing the app on my spare hermes broke te programs menu!!! had to hard reset it! (thank god i put it on my spare not my main unit
extracted the files with CabWUZ and found the musicID executable, put that onto both my spare and my main hermes and when i run it, it loads the splash screen followed by the main screen and then promptly crashses locking the phone up completly.
have you had this application working? can you offer any advice?
am i useing the same Cingular app you were talkking about?
I've PM'd you my email could you still send me your working cingular app?
MANY thanks!

IT WORKS!
put the exe on the SD card and it runs.. successfully tagged gwen steffani (on the radio at the time honest!!!!)
so how is the billing SUPPOSED to work on this... can't see how they can charge me, but i dont want the app to stop working next week...
i can post just the musicID app if anyone wants it!

never mind my pm
glad to hear that it work
i must admit that i have not tried it for a week but it should not stop working...
were you able to locate the reg entries..
just remove them
that should help
keep us updated
P.S
just for added secruity i hope you are not on at&t and if you are really paranoid then try removing your sim card and see if it still works (should work)

Found the Registry settings which holds the Data about the trial!
HKLM\software\MusicID
so far a delete of this resets the trial period to 3 days!
what more as your privously tagged data is stored a dir on the root of the device under \app data\musicID
this data is left alone and so you can see what previous songs you have tagged!!!
i'll start working on a script to automate the process of editing the registry now....

can someone post the exe thanks

Here you go
MusicID - PPC executable
extract the zip file, you will find the native PPC application.
dump to phone (i found it more stable on SD card) and run.
(trial reset key to come, when i work out mortscript...)

thanks again

i feel that this question is dumb but need to confirm does it have to go to the internet with a media net plan or can it work with having any internet connection?

never mind got it to work. good luck with the script

i would advise you against releasing the script here...it might be taken as an attempt to hack the app... and posting of warez is banned in this forum
P.S just in case you did not notice there is a new real player in that cab (in case you need to stream or play rm file)

Right... SO....
this is my first script so bare with me if it doesn't work for everyone!!!
Don't shout at me ;op !!
Complete setup Instructions.
download this file.
--> Trial MusicID Reset.zip
in here you will find three files
musicID.mscr
MusicID.exe
MortScript-4.0-PPC.cab
(im not sure im supposed to include this for re-distribution, i'll take it down if anyone thinks im not!!)
Step 1)
extract the attached file onto the PC.
Step 2)
Make DIR on SD card
Storage Card\Program Files\MusicID
Step 3)
MusicID.exe in that dir.
Step 4)
Put musicID.mscr into My Docs Dir (can go anywhere, but this is as good as any)
Step 5) Optional!!
Use GSFinder+ or equivilent file explorer to make shortcut to musicID.mscr file. place this shortcut in
\windows\start menu\programs
(if you want it in your programs list)
Step 6)
Install the mortScript-4.0-PPC.cab file.
Step 7)
Run MusicID.mscr and MusicID should run, each time deleting off the registry keys that contain trial infomation...
let me know if you ahve any problems and if anyone knows how to script better than me, let me know what mistakes i made with my script!

I extracted it, and even tried the separately posted MusicID.exe, however when I click on it in Resco File Explorer, nothing happens? I'm running WM2003SE.

Sorry i'm afraid i can't help, this has only been tested on WM05 and WM06
(both hermes)

[REQ] AT&T Manilla Theme

Believe it or not, I like the theme. Someone want to extract it for me or give me the instructions to extract it? I bet I could find it somewhere in the diamond thread but my computer is being a pain in the @$$ and is dead slow. Would someone be so kind so that I can keep this theme after I flash a faster rom with no bloatware.

Um. Same as in any other ppc? I just think you're a lil over the top today otherwise you would've seen it! LOL! It's Menu>Edit>Paste. Same as where the copy is lol.
EDIT: Maybe I'm over the top. I forgot you said Total commander. I can't install that right now. I remember it was something like Move, Replace, Copy or something. I'll post again when i find it.

Hologram

Hi folks!
I've just buy an D2 htc and i see a amazing app named hologram (based on the app with wii remotes)
I've tried to install the app but it doesnt work, he say "htcapi.dll impossible to find" or something like that..
I'm really disapointed because i want to show it all around me!!
So somebody have an idea?

the same happens whit my diamond!!
i dont know what to do please if someone can help

When you downloaded it there was a hcapi.dll or something like that in the included.. You need to put it in the /Windows folder.
Then it should work.
But maybe you need some ati 3d drivers to get it smooth..
Or at least this worked for me,

her is the file and the cab
http://www.ce4arab.com/vb7/attachment.php?attachmentid=24278&d=1223403905

I installed it included Ati 3D drivers and didn't work. Same message like you wrote and file was in windows folder. :-( Thanx for any advice.

what application is this? sounds interesting, mind posting some pictures?

I can confirm working, thanks! At last, a use for the ati 3d driver I installed some time ago (which I was never convinced speeded anything else up). Lovely prog for showing off your TD2!
Update: It does work, if you don't soft reset. After a reset, the app complains it "can't find PInvoke DLL "HTCAPI" and shuts down again. Looking at the Windows directory with Total Commander, the HTCAPI.DLL file is still there. The only visible difference is its icon, which has become a folder icon rather than a windows system file icon. If you copy the file from the original installation package back to the windows folder, overwriting the other one, the icon becomes a system file one again, and the app launches successfully again. Can anyone explain this?
It's a pity,because it's an impressive little "eye candy" app when it works.

can anyone make the zoombar on the D2 work with this application? Looking great.

can cam we zoom yet ?

Cant install Resco Explorer

I have searched quite thoroughly, both on this forum and wider, for a solution to this. I may be being thick, but...
When I've installed (to either the device or the SD card ) Resco Explorer I get "this is not a valid pocket pc application" when I try to run it. I've tried running it from the start menu shortcut and from the application icon in Program Files.
Would really appreciate help with this as I am unable to do any of the nice HKLM tweaks out there without Resco Explorer.

Sounds like you may have downloaded an incorrect version. Can you give us a link to where you got it from?

Well its not exactly an official source, if you see what I mean. I dont mind paying for the application, if it proves to be useful and easy for me to use. Until then I guess Im a bit stuck then.
Ive tried .cab of the 2010 beta and the 2008 "rescoexploreren_p.exe" app, installed via the PC.

You can download a free trial of Resco, but I'd recommend Total Commander. It's not as finger friendly as Resco, but it's certainly more wallet friendly (as in, it's free )
You can Google it or find it on here.

on my leo, resco file explorer 2010 runs without a problem. so i think it's because of your 'source' why it's not running on your device.
try the official demo or search for better "source". but first be sure not having downloaded a virus (actually infecting your pc)

On my HD2 Resco Explorer 2008 running without any problem, downloaded from resco.net and installed via pc.

How to move Gameloft's games into Storage card ?

and how to make them work again under games

Pocket Mechanic will move them from device to storage card whilst still leaving the game installed.

Hi
Noob question: anymore details on how we can go about doing this by using pocket mechanic?
thanks in advance.

Pocket Mechanic ? is this the only way ?

same question

I had this problem and just fixed it, didn't even use pocket mechanic
I have resco file explorer, all I simply did was move the games in the Gameloft folder on my device into Storage Card/Program Files/Gameloft
I then made copies of the shortcuts to the games and placed them in My Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games
And voila, it worked, and no reappearing of the huge gameloft files in My Device

Did it without resco and didn't work

This is right !
but t\and I have been doing so for ages BUT it just doesnt work for all ( like midnight pool for instance )

There are a lot of discussions about this ongoing out in the web. It does not work because of ONE file per game that cannot be run from SD.

Interesting, the games that I moved and worked included midnight pool 2.. (the games I moved were midnight pool 2, avatar and texas hold em poker)
Weird how it only works for some...
Maybe its differences in ROMs?
I am currently using the May 9th Energy ROM if that helps..

Well first of all you have to have resco
Then open it up, and simply just navigate to required folders and you are able to do all the cut and pasting by touch =]

Nothing happens and theres no error , and the shortcuts right

Some gameloft games can be installed / moved to storage card. Just recreate the shortcut using tool like total commander - cecmd
Asphalt 4
Chessmaster
Ferarri GT
Prince of Persia
Spiderman
Sonic
Bubble Bash 2
The rest require patching the main exe file &
removing reference to \Program Files\ &
hardcoding the \storage card\gameloft\gamepath
