Cool - are you using DeJe's drivers?
http://www.deje.gmxhome.de/
Note - I have done / do this with my Sigmarion III (currently) and a Toshiba e7xx (past) - however both are USB and not serial.
I'd definitely be interested in how you did it too!

hi jmbneaf - sorry a bit off topic;
your profile show :---- current: XDA-I WM2k3 w/ PPCtechs 64MB & Battery Upgrade - ROM 4.01.16 cooked / RS 6.24.01. So it is possible to upgrade the XDA-I? and what do you mean battery upgrade, to what (did not know it was possible)???

yes iggy, u can upgrade the OS to 2003 on the xda1.
and the battery pack is a backpack of sorts that snapps on the back of xda1, makes it thicker, and heavier, but long and behold, i can surf the net for 12 hours with it
search ebay for sx56 battery pack.
good luck.
COOL,i wanna play with my mouse too..!!!
ok
ok ill start working on the webpage, also in answer to the drivers. i didnt need any. just poped up fter a soft reset. i had to make te serial interface cable myself easyly done ill provide full deatiles on making this cable on the webpage.

ntabikha & iggy - mine doesn't have that bulky external battery thing ... :?
The guys at Pocket PC Techs did the upgrade 8) - physically added another 32 Mb of SD RAM to the motherboard and then changed out the internal battery for a bigger better more efficient one. So, I have 64Mb of usable RAM, same 32 Mb ROM + a 1800 mAh battery (stock battery is a 1500 mAh with less efficient charging). I go about 1.5-2 days between charges depending on my usage habits.
So to the naked eye mine appears stock, but is anything but. Check out the upgrades here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/Services.asp?type=TMOB
Tell Mr Wesson and the guys I referred you to them - you'll be glad you did. :wink:

jmbneaf, i know that upgrade too, but... my battery now is 3300 mah

If you look carefully you should see that the discussion is about the XDA1/Qtek1010/SX56 or whatever they call it. Not the XDA2. Hence no bluetoth.
raptorz2003x,
How is the documentary going? Do you have any pictures or additional details to share?
This is a neat project I agree.

My xda cannot be charged anymore. As soon as I plug in the power supply unit the charging indicator does not light up. The PocketPC, however is running without any problems. What can I do?
another thing that u should now that - i was plug it in to my old cable of my ipaq 3800 to the gps mouse car by mistake
because i now there is a special cable for the xda
but it is look the same cable
but can i still solve the problemm ?
re:
don't worry...
try with an hard reset...
I had the same problem and I solved it in this way.
Hi.
Francesco
Well I also had the same problem, using a wrong (IPAQ) power/gps cable but my XDA was damaged so badly it had to be repaired! Even a hard reset was no help. I cannot understand why XDA and IPAQ use the same connectionplug but have the powerscheme switch damaging the device this way
It's because.....
It forces people to buy the accessoires of brand of the product. Every vendor will try to endorse their view of the world en make it difficult for others to enter their market. Only when a LARGE chunk of the market starts to complain and the vendors start to have more benefits from standards will they try to persue them. But even then they try to get as much benefit out of it. So they use the same plug because it's there and cheap, but change the connections.
It's all about market control.
Where does it leave us here? Be careful what you do in messing with the hardware.
I am sorry to hear your XDA was damaged.
Robert
Hi Robert, did you get your 64 MB upgrade in Maarssen(broek)? Is it oke and do you now have 48 Mb ROM?
yes, yes and ehm???
To answer your questions:
Yes in Maarssen
Yes it is oke
Ehm....48 MB Rom???
Device information shows the following
CPU ARM SA1110
Speed 206 Mhz
RAM size 64 MB
Flash size 32 MB
etc.
I posted a 'review' of the people in Maarssen on the dutch site http://forum.pocketpc-club.nl/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4777
Robert
ROM is same as Flash size and so it is 32 MB, I was asking this because it seems Pocket PC 2003 wil need 48 MB. So XDA owner and obviously more PDA owners wil not be able to upgrade
Unless you have an early xda (prior to official launch) or a very unusual iPAQ they are not the same chargers - look more closely.
Hi
I have one question may be its foolish to ask
Is it true that upgrading Qtek 1010 to WM 2003 will crush the main board cause am thinking in upgrading my ppc to WM 2003
what do u Suggest
Thanx
You think??!!
so far its been 6 month now and i upgraded my Qtek 1010 for 3 times and its running smoothly...
so again you think?
go ahead do it but please make sure you know what your doing...
:wink:
Thanx for answering me and encourgin me
actually i posted my Qtek Device Info on another post and somebody kindly told me that i have already wm2003
my device info
ROM Version:4.00.16 Eng
ROM Date : 07/10/03
Redio Version : 4.21.00
Protocol Version: 32S54
so Mr.ARZLEB do u suggest anything for making this qtek arabic enabled thanx alot
Qtek and crushed motherboards
The only way you'll crush your Qtek upgrading from Pocket PC 2002 to Windows Mobile aka Pocket PC 2003 is if you physically sit onto of the device while the upgrade is being processed. If you believe this, boy do I have some very cheap igloos in Alaska for you to buy!

Sorry for asking much
but the www.pocketpc4arab.com is not working with me is it with u
then the post u put contains beta arabization do u suggest me to use it and when i back up my rom on a MMc card can i use this card for another programs or i should leave it as a back up only
thanx
Falconsql
www.pocketpc4arab.com Seems down try this one:
http://www.ppcme.com
Actually i don't suggest to use Arabic in general this is my opinion as what to do its your decision.
As for the MMC i suggest when you back up your ROM it not to use it for any other thing even if you try the MMC would require format to be able to write on it anything else so that mean you will loose all the Backup data.
If you need anything else just keep asking till you get all the anwsers...

My XDAII goes dead once per week. I can only take the Battery out for a certrain amount of time so that all the internal batterie is off, then I have to reinstall everything.
Can anyone helps me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

good for you that ur unit goes dead after a week. Maybe you should get an extra battery? U can take out your battery and still have 20 mins B4 ur internal Li-ion goes dead. All your files will be lost. Hope this might help.

I agree: I have the exact same issues with my QTEK2020 and the only two same softwares I installed are SPB Pocket Plus 2.1 and Flash Player.
Now, because my unit crashed so many times (about once a week as well) and after several recoveries with xBackup, some of my ~1000 contacts are no more synchronized with Outlook (i.e. they are on the PC but not on the QTEK2020). It's a real mess.
I can't rely on this PDA and I keep loosing my last inputs (new contacts, new notes, new calendar items, etc).
Does anyone know of a reliable software that would indicate the battery level in the top bar ?

Thanks you all for your replies.
My problem is not that the battery is empty. it is a software issue.
I think it comes either for the OS or from a software installed.
Now I have the problem once per day.
Again thanks a lot for all of you.

I want to play Power Point presentation using my Qtek 9100 on video projector ...
Does anybody know is there a way to do that ? Maybe using some accessory or bluetooth connection if present on projector?
Thanks
You can't
No I am afraid you can't do that.... they haven't given that possibility I really wonder why. When one pays so much this is the one thing that is really missing. A direct TV out.

For an additional $10, you'd expect it to fetch your newspaper
SOTI pocket controller
You can do this from the PDA via a PC hooked to the projector using Soft Object Technology's Pocket Controller. I bought it originally for my Wallaby, recently got a Wizard and am using it there now. Nifty application, you can do everything with the desktop image that you can do with the touchscreen, and I think it lets you record a movie of you doing stuff on the PDA.
More info here: http://www.soti.net/
Well worth the registration cost IMO

That's prety cool I'd get one to try but I keep my presentations on the SD card... LOL kinda hard to show the presentation if I have to take it out...heh. Currently I just transfer the presentation to someone's laptop and use theirs. Kinda "old tech" and not "high tech".

Maybe, why not... I am sure it would be more than 10 $!
I see that SpecTec has upgraded to 1024x768. Any other newer options out there?? Thanks!
BT?
I remember seeing that a projector supported bluetooth to transfer images. Wouldn't it be a solution for that, meaning you buy a bluetooth adaptor to hook to your projector and use the internal bluetooth to transmit your presentation? This way the SD port would remain available for the SD memory cards with the presentation.
If one finds it, please share...

I really wondering what you are 'lolz'-ing at. I'm not sure if you are ignorant or the Pakistan people (who sell the cords) are ignorant. As I have said a million time in this forum, getting the cable (cord) into a socket doesn't mean it works. You can connect a USB to 240V socket, doesn't mean you can charge your unit directly onto the phone (kids, dont try this at home).
How much do you understand about the USB connection, and the video connection (the yellow thing you've mentioned). Not to mentioned that one runs on digital and one runs on analog signal (at a different frequency), they probably runs at a different voltage anyway. And also, the fact that, a Wizard phone doens't have USB host to it, it wont do the job in the way you've mentioned.

hi ,i made a dll that translates TG01 accelerometer data into HTC's,it works well in most game about accelerometer .
How to use it : put the dll file to windows folder.
Resco Bubbles is the test game!!

Yes, tested but doesn't work with a game called SensorMAze for HTC. Could you pleas upload a game to test it?
Thanks
doesn't work with Asphalt 4, Ferrari GT, Xtrakt, Experiment 13.
Work with NFS Undercover
Amazing stuff thank you for your efforts.
Yes! keep up the good work man
you sir are a genius, brilliant little mod. resco works good. just a little question though, is there any way to increase the sensitivity? i have calibrated it in-game and with windows 6.5 but it seem that if i tilit it left then right it takes a few seconds for the momentum to stop and the ball to turn back.
other than that, your .dll is great, good work
Great
Works but as the last post said there is a minor delay going from left to right, im testing GLESBoing (doodle jump like game).
really great. thanks a lot, had been waiting for something like that for ages.
tested with G-alarm, working u

i test this problem ,i find the TG01 G_sensor data have more fluctuation(or noise) than HTC diamond .when the mobile phone comes to a standstill,TG01 data fluctuation about 0.020g,but HTC diamond about 0.002g, i don't know what caused this problem,Toshiba's driver or TG01 accelerometer chip?
Great work - thanks!
Great work, but in Omnia (first version) HTCemu is much better. May be sensor in Omnia is better, but i don't think so. We have a lot of job...
Thanks Man I've really tried for a long time to get the sensor workin thanks buddy!!!!!!!!!!

i just tried changing the .net from 3.5 to 2.0 and it seemed to have it made it more eratic in the menu display and i felt like it was less floppy in the game, may just have been me on my tg01 but it may lend itself to something .net is setup as to how fast the g-sensor gets processed?
if it was a htc one then its generally accepted code but if its a custom/unknown one then the commands would/might be different and may need interpreting before they even get close to doing something, causing a delay.
can we probe the chip to see what it actually accepts somehow? like you can on modems?

Hello chaps,
So far the program seems very functional. The only thing I've tried that doesn't work is Sensormaze. Marble Worlds 2 and NFS have been transformed.
Many thanks once again.

i think .net influences the game speed rather than my driver or tg01 driver,because my driver is based on win32 having nothing to do with .net,and tg01 driver can not work under the .net. But i will test it .
actually,it is not delay ,it's just a bit of out of control .
the next work is trying to bypass the Toshiba's own driver and read the chips data directly to see it ,but is hard for me.
Good job...
i tried Gpad... works too...
G sensor is recignized... but Xtract.exe still doesn't work... maybe because version 2...
other keep it up !! Good Work...
Looks so gooodddd...

not sure if this helps but i was looking at the qualcomm website and it said the hardware supports windows & linux so could we not pull a linux driver and wrap it up so it can be used by win32? or even comparing the different drivers against other snapdragon based devices to see if we can pull a nugget to help us?
also i remember seeing a reg setting for the g-sensor and the dword was 101,i increased it on my device to 200 a while ago and it did nothing but crash my tg01, im going to try again with smaller increments and see if there is any change in anything. is there any programs around to monitor the responsiveness of the sensor directly on the device in realtime?
