    - GPS intermediate driver compatible to old software? I have a question regarding the new GPS intermediate driver features in Windows Mobile 5. I think I understand how the new feature should work, but I can see that I have many GPS applications including me app (which is written in Java) which have problems to connect to the "software/application" com Port selected in the Windows Mobile 5 GPS settings dialog. As far as I read in the GPS intermediate driver MSDN documentation the new feature should be compatible to older software. So software which does not use the new interfaces and services from Windows Mobile 5 SDK should also be able to connect to the software COM port set in the WM5 GPS settings dialog? => is the software COM port visible as "standard (virtual)" COM port in the system? What are those new GPD ports which I can select? By the way is there any documentation for the new GPS feature in Windows Mobile 5 (not the SDK documentation)? Any hints or links to some useful answers are welcome! Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114536

    - mobile interface technology Hi, I'm trying do decide wich is the more convinient (design, reusability, conectivity, security) interface technology for develop a mobile ("some times off-line") application. C#/VB.NET Mobile Application >>> Web Service C#/VB.NET Mobile Application + ADO.NET >>> SQL Server AJAX (HTML+javascript+xmlhttp) >>> Web Services / ASP.NET Functions Consider that I have hundreds of ASP.NET and Web Services solutions running in a production environment that would help to reduce the development time of new business logics components. At this moment, I made some tests, and I really appreciate the AJAX mobile solution. It's easier to build and maintan screens rather than Visual Studio .NET. But I think that PIE it's not good framework to user, because it has a lot of limitations, like access the device file system and functionalities, navigation beetwen the screens, global variable sharing, and so on. So, wich option is better? Thanks a lot for any suggestion. Leonardo Freitas Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114533

    - System.Windows.Forms.Timer suspends when PPC sleeps Is there way to force the Timer control to keep ticking when the device is off? I have an app that needs to do something 10 minutes after it's launched regardless if the device is on or off during that time (similar to a windows service - kind of). Since running ppc apps maintain their state between off/sleep periods I would think the timer would continue to run but that does not seem to be the case in my testing. Doesn't ActiveSync continue to run when the device is "off"? Thanks, Jim Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114532

    - Main form - Sub form problem I am building a Pocket PC application in C#. I have 5 forms (1 main and 4 sub forms). The main form must always load first. The sub forms are loaded from the main form. The application is run using Application.Run(new MainForm()); The user may choose to load one of the sub forms automaticaly at startup, but when I do the folowing in the MainForm_Load(......) function the Main form always shows up infront of the subform: private void MainForm_Load(.....) { ... ... SubForm sub = new SubForm(); sub.Show(); sub.BringToFront(); this.Hide(); this.SendToBack(); ... ... } Is there a way that I can load the Main form and then automaticaly load one of the sub forms with the sub form being shown infront of the main form? Sub forms cannot exist if there is no main form. Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114531

    - Enter PIN Phone Dialog Hello I'm trying to display the second Phone Dialog (the one that asks for the user to enter the PIN) in WindowsMobile 5.0.I need a solution in Win32 API or C# .NET. I use the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 - Remote SPY to detect the name of that window , but it appears with the same name for both Phone and Enter PIN windows : "Phone" (for english ROMs) and "Telefon" (for german ROMs). I'm using this to bring the window to surface: telefon = FindWindow(NULL , L"Phone"); ShowWindow(telefon, SW_SHOW); UpdateWindow(telefon); SetForegroundWindow(telefon); It seems that if the window exists there is no need to make a function that tests for the SIM status (locked/unlocked) and so the only problem is in bringing directly the Phone -> Enter PIN window (when the SIM is locked).Can anyone help?

    - How to override the default error dialog when a file you're trying to open is not found on Windows Mobile 5.0 I have created a custom launcher application that launches another .exe file. I'm using ShellExecuteEx to open the .exe file, and I've added error checking code if the ShellExecuteEx fails for some reason, like file not found. I've also added a custom error message box that I want to display if the file is not found. However, when I launch my custom launcher it does display my custom error message box, but only after the following default error message box: "The file 'AvantGo' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file." Is there a way I can prevent the default error message popping up, and only display my custom error message? I'm using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005. Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114494

    - How do I get GWES to recognize keyboard on Pocket PC? Hi, I'm working on the software for a new Compact Flash (CF) card that is designed to work in Pocket PCs. The card provides a complete USB Host, which allows for a USB device to be hooked up to a PPC and then accessed from the PPC. The basic device driver is working, as are the USB client drivers. USB Flash Drives and USB printers work fine. This is under CE 4.2 with future porting to CE 5.0. I need to add support for a USB keyboard and mouse. I have gotten the USB client drivers for them to be loaded. The next step is to get a Pocket PC (e.g., hx2415) to recognize and use the external keyboard. This is where I need some assistance. HP supplies the basic driver (keypad.dll on the 2415 and keybddr.dll on the 2215) that is loaded by gwes,exe. When the usb keyboard driver starts, the "KBD1:" device is created, and DeviceNotifications sends out the message that it was added with the IClass value "{CBE6DDF2-F5D4-4e16-9F61-4CCC0B6695F3}", as spec'ed in the docs. What I am missing is how to get gwes and/or keyXxx.dll to actually use the new keyboard. I have tried setting HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\HasKeyboard to 1 but it doesn't have any noticable effect. What needs to be done to get the linkage between the keyboard and the Pocket PC to work? Another driver? Registry settings? Any sample code? Documentation pointers?

I've been searching on MSDN but have only found stuff on the API. For example with WincE 5.0 there is info on how to develop a device driver, info on the features etc. Sure a lot of this applies to WM5 but there does not appear to be anywhere where it states exactly which features are included with WM5 and also how to develop drivers for the WM5 platform.

Those 1296 people again also send 200 messages with your name on number 1. That will give us a total of 1296 x 6 x $1 = $7,776. Now the last tier! 7776 x 6 x $1 = $46,656!!!!!!

    - Bluetooth Printer from XDAIIi (Broadcom) Hi, I am trying to send data to a Bluetooth Printer, which I have paired to a XDA IIi (Pocket PC 2003 SE) using Bluetooth Manager. Currently, I am using C# and I am able to start up the Connection between the two using SerialPort.Open (baud rate = 4800, parity bit = None, Com Port = "COM6") and this apparently works (the connection goes green in Bluetooth Manager). But - I am then attempting to send the data using SerialPort.Write with the data in a byte array or a string. The code appears to work and no exception is thrown, but the printer device shows an error indication rather than accepting the data and printing. From using the sample exe which came with the printer, i do know that it is working and can print from that device. Does anyone have any experience with this sort of stuff and can suggest what may be going wrong? Is it because the SerialPort is using the Microsoft stack rather than Broadcom??? I just presumed that if i were to write the data to that port which was already connected then that would work - but obviously not! At least the printer is indicating that it is receiving something though by showing the error! Any help would be great. Thanks! Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114443

    - Custom Alarm Sound!! I've been trying to figure this out and have succeeded (Huzzah), so I'll share it with all. I have a Smartphone with WM5. I the really annoying and dare I say, uncreative alarm clock sounds provide with the OS. So since I can play mp3s with my Mobile Windows Media, I thought, why not make an alarm based off of it? This is how you do it: Take your mp3, and decompress it to a WAV file. You will probably have a big WAV file (my phone doesn't pack a lot of internal memory ~ 32MB I think). So, you can use the WAV compression level that the other sounds have: 11025 Hz, 16-bit, Mono. So once you recode (or down-code, haha) then make sure to copy it into the \Windows directory on your mobile device. Now, when you configure your alarm (not reminders for events, but straight up alarm clock) you can tell it that new song you just added. Voila! Have fun waking up to your favorite song!

    - Bug on .NET CF 2.0 ?? Hi All I have noticed what appears to be a bug during migration of a C# project from .NET 1.0 to .NET 2.0. I have an application running on a Windows Mobile 2003 SE developed with VS 2003 using .NET CF 1.0 with no problems what so ever. However recently I had to upgrade to VS 2005 and during the first load of the C# project I was asked to upgrade the project to .NET CF 2.0, hich I accepted. I was able to recompile the project in VS 2005 with no errors. HOWEVER when I deployed and ran the application I consistently got an exception: NotSupportedException No difference if I run it on a real device or on the emulator. A snippet of the code (simplified for clarity) goes like this: private void SomeWork() { TEST info; info = new TEST(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(TEST))); ********* The NotSupportedException is thrown here } public class TEST : Struct { public int some_data; public TEST(int size) : base(size) { } } public class Struct { byte[] i_data; public Struct(int size) { i_data = new byte[size]; } } What am I missing ?? Best regrads and thanks in advance Kim Würtz Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114427

    - EDB Object Store for WM 5.0 Hello folks, I can't understand why EDB Object Store is not found in Visual Studio 2005 with WM 5.0 SDK I installed Visual Studio 2005 and then WM 5.0 SDK Then i migrated my project that was built in 2003 environment by Wizard that started to work when i chose old project file. Everything worked smooth, exept i can't compile the file with DB routines. Old functions like CeMountDBVol are said as #pragma depricated and when i change them to EDB format like CeMountDBVolEx i receive "identifier not found". I thought that may be i can set WM 5.0 SDK as Additional Include Directories in Project Property Pages for C++, but it didn't help. Configuration is set to WM 5.0 PocketPC SDK (ARMV4I). Any help will be appreciated Yours Dimitry Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114426

    - DTM_BROWSERDISPATCH not working Hi, I am trying to get the IDispatch for an HTML Control using the DTM_BROWSERDISPATCH message. Here is some of my code: IDispatch* pDisp = 0; IWebBrowser2* pWebBrowser = 0; SendMessage(hWndHtml, DTM_BROWSERDISPATCH, 0, (LPARAM) pDisp); HRESULT hr = pDisp->QueryInterface(IID_IWebBrowser2, (void**) pWebBrowser); if (FAILED(hr)) { hr = S_OK; } long hi; pWebBrowser->get_Height(&hi); The problem is that after the sendmessage, the IDispatch pointer is still NULL. Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks. Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114419

    - Visual Studio debuging native code on emulator Hi, I have a vs2005 smart device dll project. When I debug it using vs2005's debugger, I cannot see local variables in the "locals" window. Also, when stepping over lines, it often skips down to further sections of my code. Moreover, it often skips past "return;" statements like they weren't even there. This leads me to two possible explanations: 1. The vs2005 debugger does not sync up well with the device and thinks it is evaluating a statement that it really isnt. 2. The compiler rearranges the binary such that the lines get messed up. These are only guesses. Has anyone had trouble using and seen unexpected behavior from the cs2005 debuger for a windows mobile 5.0 ppc native executable? Thanks, Mike Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114416

    - openFileDialog ignores InitialDirectory Its me again. I'm using C# on Mobile 5. No matter what I set InitialDirectory on openFileDialog to it always starts in 'My Documents'. How do I change this behavior? It very frustrating that every time I need to do something I have to ask you folks how. Surely this kind of stuff MUST be documented SOMEWHERE! Alright, I feel better now. Thanks, Jim Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114405

    - Quick TextBox Question (Easy one... I hope!) Hi All, In my application, I have a textbox control inside a user control that has Multiline and AcceptsReturn properties defined as true. I have code that will add characters to the textbox. When I add "\r\n" for a carriage return, the textbox does not adjust to show the new line. The cursor is gone, but it always shows line 1. How do I have the TextBox auto scroll to show the last line of the text so that the user sees what they are typing? Thanks in advance, - Craig Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114398

    - Certain CABs hang on install Hello, I am creating an automatic installer for CAB files to be used on several different types of handheld devices. The program will be used to update an existing program all from the handheld with no desktop interaction. It uses CreateProcess to launch wceload with each cab as shown below: Const WAITNORM As Int32 = Int32.MaxValue Dim ExeName as String = "wceload.exe" Dim CmdLine as String = "/delete 0 " & Chr(34) & cabPath & Chr(34) Dim si(128) As Byte Dim pi As New ProcessInfo CreateProcess(ExeName, CmdLine, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, 0, 0, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, si, pi) WaitForSingleObject(pi.hThread, WAITNORM) CloseHandle(pi.hThread) CloseHandle(pi.hProcess) pi = Nothing It works perfect on Mobile 5 devices. However, some of my clients are using Pocket PC and WM2003. In both these cases, my application does not work for all my CAB files. In particular I'm having trouble with: sqlce.ppc3.arm.CAB netcf.hhp.wce4.armv4_2.04.CAB After running through the whole install, these CABs will hang when the installer reaches "Writing information for "Remove Programs"....". I've searched around quite a bit and haven't found anyone else running into this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance Greg G. Tag: Question about WCELoad Tag: 114393

    - WM5 device vs. emulator I've been writing a new version of an app with VS2005 (before it was eVB), and I've specifically tested on 240x320 and VGA emulators, with success on both screen sizes. Problem is, as soon as I deploy the application to the device (in this case a Dell x51v with 240x320 screen) the display is not correct. For example I draw two rectangles which have a top line 2/3 down the screen, a bottom line 50 pixels below, are 50 pixels wide and flushed to left and right of the screen. I then create a HBRUSH, select it, then fill the rectangle. I've made sure I use the recommended functions to get the VERTRES and HORZRES figures so I can work out width and height, and use SCALEX and SCALEY for the other sizes. On the emulator, the screen draws correctly with a green box in the bottom left, and a blue box in bottom right. It's fine in both portrait resolutions. On the device, I never see the boxes, and I have no clue why. I am sure it's something I am doing (or not doing) and I'd be grateful for any ideas on where to look. Given the quality of display on many commercial applications, mine is very simple by comparison and I'm sure it's not that I'm trying to achieve something that is impossible. TIA, Mike.

During a CAB install, are the registry settings made to the device before or
after Install_Init() is called? Is the answer different for WM2003 devices
and WM5 devices?

Thanks,

The registry changes are applied after Install_Init() is called. It is the
same for WM2003 and WM5 devices.
