 - Deleting registry keys after uninstall on a .NETCF app Hi ! I have a problem to certify my Pocket PC App made with .NET Compact Framework against the "Designed for Windows Mobile Logo". It requires to delete all created registry keys after uninstall, which I can't achieve. I found some informations about a Setup.dll at this address : http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/setupdll.html. It seems to be what I want but I don't know anything about C++ :( Furthermore, I noticed that even the .NET Compact Framework doesn't delete its registry keys after uninstall (keys in "\HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\Microsoft .NET Compact Framework" always stay after uninstall). It seems that Microsoft wants us to do what they say but not what they do (and it's the same for SQLCe 2.0 and every other program I've tested) :p Here is a list of the keys created during install : - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\CabFile - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\CmdFile - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\InstallDir - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\Instl - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\InstlDir - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\InstlDirCnt - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\IsvFile And here is what remains on my Pocket PC after I uninstall my program with Active Sync or the "Add/Remove program" : - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\CabFile - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\CmdFile - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\InstallDir - \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\<MyCompany> <AppName>\IsvFile So my question is : is it really necessary to delete these keys to get the Windows Mobile Logo ? Thanks in advance. Laurent Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106705

 - Bluetooth woes Hi. I'm new to Bluetooth and am discovering quite quickly how to lose 90% of one's hair in less than a week. I have an iPAQhx2700 PPC. I will soon also have a Dell PPC. Both with bluetooth and Wifi. I am trying to discover the bluetooth devices that the iPAQ sees. So, I tried out the sample code in MSDN : #define MAX_NAME 248 WSAQUERYSET wsaq; HANDLE hLookup; FILE *file; int tries=0; union { CHAR buf[5000]; double __unused; // ensure proper alignment }; file=_tfopen(_T("/Temp/dump.txt"), _T("w")); LPWSAQUERYSET pwsaResults = (LPWSAQUERYSET) buf; DWORD dwSize = sizeof(buf); BOOL bHaveName; pwsaResults = (LPWSAQUERYSET) buf; dwSize = sizeof(buf); ZeroMemory(&wsaq, sizeof(wsaq)); wsaq.dwSize = sizeof(wsaq); wsaq.dwNameSpace = NS_BTH; wsaq.lpcsaBuffer = NULL; if (ERROR_SUCCESS != WSALookupServiceBegin (&wsaq, LUP_CONTAINERS, &hLookup)) { _ftprintf(file, L"WSALookupServiceBegin failed %d\r\n", GetLastError()); if (tries == 10) { fclose(file); return FALSE; } else { Sleep(100); } } ZeroMemory(pwsaResults, sizeof(WSAQUERYSET)); pwsaResults->dwSize = sizeof(WSAQUERYSET); pwsaResults->dwNameSpace = NS_BTH; pwsaResults->lpBlob = NULL; while (ERROR_SUCCESS == WSALookupServiceNext (hLookup, LUP_RETURN_NAME | LUP_RETURN_ADDR, &dwSize, pwsaResults)) { ASSERT (pwsaResults->dwNumberOfCsAddrs == 1); BT_ADDR b = ((SOCKADDR_BTH *)pwsaResults->lpcsaBuffer->RemoteAddr.lpSockaddr)->btAddr; bHaveName = pwsaResults->lpszServiceInstanceName && *(pwsaResults->lpszServiceInstanceName); _ftprintf (file, _T("%s%s%04x%08x%s\n"), bHaveName ? pwsaResults->lpszServiceInstanceName : L"", bHaveName ? L"(" : L"", GET_NAP(b), GET_SAP(b), bHaveName ? L")" : L""); } fclose(file); WSALookupServiceEnd(hLookup); return TRUE; Systematically the WSALookupServiceBegin() function fails with error 10108. From what I read, I'm not the only one encountering this error. The problem is that I don't understand *why* I'm getting this error. Is it because the iPAQ has a Widcomm BT stack? In this case, is there some other way to discover BT devices without having to buy the SDK? And especially, is there some way of detecting the devices that would work on *ALL* PPCs? With Widcomm or Microsoft stack? In advance, thanks. Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106701

 - Cannot call my WebServie from Emulator Hi, now that the PPC emulator of VS2005 is detected again by ActiveSync I'm facing the next problem: I cannot call my WebService from within the emulator. The emulator has network connection and I can surf the web. If I run my WebService client on my desktop PC everything is fine but the PPC keeps stating "Could not establish connection to network". For testing purposes I would like to call my ChatClient.asmx file from within the Pocket Explorer but this doesn't work either. I tried on the local IP of my desktop PC (http://192.168.178.1:3220/WebSite1/ChatService.asmx), as well as on http://Taz:3220/... and on http://localhost:3220/...

 - PDA SQL Sync Architecture VS2005 Hi, I am looking to develop a PocketPC App using VB.Net or C# and a mobile SQL database. I will then need to Sync mobile changes back to main server. I'll then try to go one step further and push changes from server back to PDA. Before diving head first I am trying to get an idea of overall best practice for architecture/technology to use, specifically for synchronisation between PDAs and a main SQL server. I will eventually want to be able to synchronise whilst docked and while connected GPRS (or other live connection). I had a quick read on ActiveSync which at every turn looked like a C++ nightmare of 'ActiveSync Providers' for my own objects/tables. Can anyone supply a basic mud-map of options here, suggest best practice or point to an idiot's guide to synchrnisation? TIA Simon Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106695

 - Treo w700 Power Managment Hello, I have an media player application that comes up at certain time and play mp3 file. I use SystemIdleTimerReset to prevent the Treo from going to suspend mode. It works find if the KeyGuard is not Active. However, if the application starts from sleep mode and the Keyaguard mode is on, then SystemIdleTimerReset does not work and the device suspend after specific time. Can someone shed some light on this problem and what is the work around? I know there must be a way because Active sync does ot and prevents the device from suspending.even the keyguard is on.

 - ActiveSync 4.1 does not offer DMA connection to emulator Hi, I'm rather new to Visual Studio 2005. I wrote a small WebService and tried to call it within the PPC 2003 SE emulator but without succes. Sneaking around on the web I figured out that ActiveSync has to be installed. I accidently installed version 3.8 instead of 4.1 but at least the emulator was detected when I set it to be cradled. Shortly after this I uninstalled 3.8 and installed ActiveSync 4.1 - now the emulator won't be detected any longer. In the connection combobox of ActiveSync I can only choose between "COM1" and "COM5". There is no such thing like a "DMA" entry. Damn, this has been bugging me for too long...any hints are welcome!

 - Windows Mobile 5 and secchk.lib I'm trying to add a WM5 target to my PPC2003 solution (Visual Studio 2005).

 - How to adjust backlight brightness programmatically on Windows Mobile 2005 Hello, I have a HP iPAQ 2490 with Windows Mobile 2005 OS. It seems that Microsoft has changed the way you adjust brightness programmatically.

SystemParametersInfo(WM_SETTINGCHANGE, 0, 0, SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE); //Notify close event...

 - API PlaySound function playing wrong sound Hello, I am trying to get a program on a Pocket PC 2003 platform to play specified sounds at certain points in the program. Sometimes it plays the sound I specify, but about 50% of the time it just plays a default beep instead (at the same point in the program). Does anyone know why? The code is: PlaySound("\windows\msgbox.wav", IntPtr.Zero, PlaySoundFlags.SND_FILENAME _ Or PlaySoundFlags.SND_ASYNC) As I say, about half the time it works and plays the sound I want, so there is nothing fundamentally wrong with the way I am calling it.

 - MAPI two character PR_BODY includes extra chinese characters Has anyone ever seen an example where when reading the body of a Windows CE mail message body using PR_BODY via IStream, that extra chinese characters are inserted at the end of the ASCII text message? If so, what was the cause? When this occurs, the message size given via Stat() is double the number of ASCII characters, and when it doesn't happen the message size matches the number of ASCII characters. This is on an english device and the text being entered is english text. For example, I can reliably reproduce this problem with a two character body on PPC 2003, and with a four character body on WM 5.0. Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106616

 - programmatically play new email notification: sound/buble/flash/vibrate? In Pocket PC, you can control how to get notified when there is a new email: Under "Setting"=>"Personal"=>"Sounds&Notifications"=>"Notification" tab, choose specific settings for "Messaging: New e-mail message". In Smartphone, there is a similar setting (with only a choice to pick a sound though). I developed a mail transport, which creates an account in Outlook based on user's username/password/server/port, and drops new emails in the inbox without user's intervention (sort of like always-on email). After a new email arrives, the user needs to be notified. My question is how to generate notification based on the user's setting? For example, play a wav file chosen by the user, and/or vibrate ...

 - Asynch wininet - Threaded or not? Hi, If I use asynch Wininet is there any purpose in hiving of the Wininet calls into separate threads and the extra complication which ensues? As from what I can see the system starts a separate thread implicitly for the asynch calls anyway. The reason I ask is I imagine the thread switching might ensure that the UI remains responsive - plus there may be other issues you can enlighten me with. My application is "real-time" and will be applied to a Pocket PC/Smartphone as well as WinXP so I need the quickest/most efficient functionality possible. Also the UI response must be as fast as possible. The application basically "GET"s a website for info then issues occasional - through crucial "POST"s prompted by the user via the UI. Both the GETS and POSTS must be carried out as close to real-time as possible. TIA Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106586

I am currently running an application that creates a new thread and that thread creates/changes/deletes the PIM items. My question is when this thread creates/changes/deletes a PIM items, how come that message gets passed to my windows procedure as a remote change and not a local change? Don't threads have the same Process ID as the calling process, so it should be considered basically the same process? Also, is there a way to determine the process that changed the PIM items, if any?

Any ideas? Best Regards, David Ross Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106572

 - DrawIcon on VGA Hello! I have a small window that is of size 16x16 px. I also have an icon resource with two sizes: 16x16 and 32x32. On non-VGA devices, when I use DrawIcon() the 16x16 icon gets drawn and everything look good. However, as you already know, on VGA devices, WinCE resizes this window to real 32x32 pixels, and also resizes the icon, so it look pixelated. Is there a way I could draw 32x32 icon in my 16x16 (physically 32x32) window? Greetings, Esad Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106571

 - Hardware button events Hi all, I have a stopwatch project in VS2003 targeting a Pocket PC 2003 device (which has cf 1.0 SP3 in ROM) Is there any way I can utilise the hardware buttons on the device for user input? I know this has been asked before, and I do apologise, however, I've googled extensively, but can only find native code or new examples for the v2.0 framework (which presumably need VS2005??) What is the easiest way for me to achieve this? Ideally I would like the user to be able to choose a key to use also. Regards Neil. Tag: passthru driver Tag: 106563
