Hi,
Can anybody give me an idea what kind of software would be the best for synchronizing I-Mate with Apple PowerBook?
Appreciate any suggestions.

found this in the search
http://www.pocketmac.net/
thank you
i know that - what i am looking for is to understand which on is really works
the problme is - no one from them giving trial downloads :-( so i can not even feel it before buy it
appreciate any ideas for it....
bought missing sync and pocketmac ...the 2nd is better
Thank you all..
Thank you Rudegar for links to demo versions - will try today.
Should I know anything specific in regards to installing PPC Aps from MAC to i-Mate?
from what i've been able to read that ms will release a activesync for mac at one point
of cause being for mac they are not likely to be in that big a hurry
and it could have issues in the first versions
but i suppose it would be free once it gets there
i see... let's wait
thank you for help

Hi there people,
Boy have I found the right site ! This is just what I needed ..
I bought my 02 XDA last week (UK) and thought it was the dogs danglies ... and being a little technically minded, just knew it was gonna be upgradeable and have some really cool stuff. But this takes it into another realm...
I've downloaded the 1.1 exe file kindly supplied on this forum, but as I'm still getting my head round the machine and Active Sync, haven't had the balls to upgrade the ROM - not being funny but is it really as good as it sounds ? Can I get into difficulties with warranties etc if it goes wrong ?
Also, is the exe file really all I need ? As I said I'm not afraid of a technical challenge, but I ain't done this before, and would probably shy away from getting to far into the guts - if ya know what I mean ?
I'm going to continue reading every bit of this site, so apologies if these questions have been answered before, but I'd be grateful if one of you good people could reassure me before I do anything dangerous !
Oh and by the way I'm not connected to the big bad world yet, still waiting for number port, so I'm just playing at the moment, but I can see where the desire to change certain things comes from !
One last question - Something is really bugging me, why do the programs stay running in memory when I've closed them ?
Thanks and keep up the good work !
Yes, the exe file is all you need. Yes, you can get into trouble with warranties, but only if you don't flash your old ROM back in before returning it.
You can create a backup of your old ROM using an SD-card, a PC based SD-card reader and our program XDArit. But if your provider offers an upgrade available on-line, you can also flash that when something breaks.
oh fantastic - thanks
sorry for all the stupid questions but does your ROM still contain Active Sync ? I'm using it and find it really useful - or is there something better ?
Oh and I upgraded the version of pocket office to 3.17 the other day as I was getting connection problems while synchronising. Does anybody know anything about the new ROM version ?
I'm also on Radio 4.20.00
and Protocol 32S54 (whatever that is
sorry it was early when I posted that and my brain wasn't functioning - the process of "flashing" the ROM actually requires Active Sync doesn't it ? i.e. the unit needs to be in the cradle attached to the PC via USB - that's how I upgraded to 3.17 - I had active sync running and then executed the download/install exe, which took control of the link and upgraded the ROM.
Does your ROM install work in the same manner or do I need to do something else/uninstall active sync or anything ?
No, you just connect the unit via ActiveSync, run Jeff's exe, and life is good.
excellent ! Thanks a million - looking forward to the changes..
great site and great ideas chaps - well done !!
Hi Guys,
Just to say THANKS to everyone out there, not only the developers but the normal mortals too - who put in effort to help people here.
I have uploaded the Windows mobile 2003 to my site. Its on a super mega link (great words :wink: ) I get 1meg a sec+ when i download from it at work !

Cheers Guys

You are my hero....... :lol:
:lol:
Your welcome !
Thanks again XDA-Developers
Any "gotcha's" in this release. Is it pretty stable?

other than can't turn off gprs easily... its fab
system wide cleartype
excellent sms + contact management
generally more polished release !
Well I have taken the plunge already and it upgraded like a dream.
Although you cannot initially see massive changes it just feels better and looks a bit more appealing (only subtley though). Its a bit like when XP (without the god awful new nav system) was released, everything felt a bit crisper.
All in all I am chuffed with it and look forward to getting to grips with whats underneath.
Cheers again Ali, and although I am VERY grateful I cannot wait for a SE Rom to see just what weird and wonderful things the development gods bring us.
Just as and addon to this post - I am an EXTREMELY happy bunny now as I have been having major issues with my XDA not recognising my SMS message centre number previous and not allowing me to send texts. This happened no matter what Rom I used. U/g to PPC2003 and lo and behold shove the sim in and its all sorted.
For once (even though I dont think its down to the OS) I will take my hat off to MS and say ta.
HI Ali,
Great work.
Does this exe file work with windows 98?
Anyone out there had used win 98 with this and no problems?
Cheers
Vic
hello mate,
To be honest, I have never tried it with Win98, only XP.
I would defiantely make sure before upgrading !
Btw, do you happen to have the 4.005 release?
I like the direct approach :lol:
no :roll:
I want it though !... anyone care to share and I will upload it for all
I really hate people that have the release and yet publish on the forum and yet giving reason that cannot be understood.
It would be better not to share what you have if you do not intend to let the public to enjoy it. :?
exactly,
Whats the point of talking about it and then keeping it yourself?
we should share !
or find a 'loners' community

GPRS Disconnect????
I think its good but how do i dc from GPRS? This sucks. I still love the se 1.2. I love pocket console.
XDA Asian version
Hi,
what if I use the latest version of Windows Mobile 2003 Ali uploaded on my XDA ? Current versions are:
ROM version: 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date: 10/11/02
Radio: 4.17
Protocol: 32S54
Will I have problems with the radio version ?
Thanks,
So what now ?
:lol: So what now ? :?:
Downloaded Installed Working some kind of GREAT !
Is it the latest version ?
Ali-Butt posted the same release as was posted here 2 weeks ago. its 4.00.01. it just works via activestink. as Xda-developers posted before, updating through programme A is not the safest thing to do. just in case have ur sd card reader ready. also there is a slight chance that ur bootloader might get corrupt. they said it happened. that's why safest way to do it is via SD card.

WOAAAH, i'm downloading it with 2300 kb/sec. Nice connection dude! :shock:

I had the same problem at first. I set it off downloading twice and each time it didn't complete the 15.2MB (or whatever), one around 3.4 and another 1.7ish. Even though the file seemed to complete on both occasions.
What I did in the end was sit and watch it, whilst leaving the original screen with the download link loaded...rather than closing it once the download began. That time it worked a treat.

Hi All,
I wanted to know if everyone thought it was time to upgrade to windows mobile 2003 yet or not? Please select yes or no in the poll above and leva any messages for me please!
Thanks Guys! Jas
IMHO, I don't think the general populous should upgrade to 2003. As far as I'm hearing, it's just not stable enough. When the bugs have been ironed out, then maybe.
Just me 2 Euro worth...

Stability?
Hi
I've used about 4 versions of PPC2003 so far, and I havent had major issues with them. The only issue with stability is with me as a user - I cant seem to help hopping ROMs as and when they become available.
Then again, which Microsoft product has been free of 'bugs' for PPC 2003 to be an exception. YOu lived with 2002 and all its bugs, because you didnt have a choice - not because it was flawless.
Totally agree with sandyind! :lol:
I would tend to agree, in that there haven't been many [any] Microsoft products that have been flawless. But I'd still wait until it became a little more stable. Maybe wait for the next 2003 update.

WM2003 SMS - Reason enough to upgrade
If you use SMS like it was IM, then WM2003 is the greatest, now you can actually see SMS length and that the message was sent. Besides most of us here install beta drivers for video, sound etc to get the most out of our hardware, why not every other gadget we own ;-)
Hi everyone,
thanks for the massive interest and polls! So with it 87% yes so far, would it be safe to say the pro's cancel out the bugs and a thumbs up to upgrading? Does anyone know what the main bugs are which are putting people off?
Do we know a rough time when the next updated version is going to be out?
Thanks for all your efforts guy and Gals!!!

well, I thought it was time to upgrade but it seems not yet at least for me since Arabic support was Important.
i upgraded to WM2003 and play with it for a while and tried several Arabization tools unfortunetly none of them works for me then decide to downgrade back to 2002 and wait untill somebody will release Arabic support for the WM2003.

Hi,
Is it easy to uninstall?
Cheers

2 days now and I am happy with it.
There is a masive increase in speed with pocket snes and
the always-on gprs is wonderful.
There is one bug if you run ByteCounter with EzWAP2,
EzWAP2 will disappear and wont start any more.
I live in dread of the SD erasure bug so far this has not happen.
right it looks like im going to upgrade, will do it tomorrow night any advice for installation? 8)

I will like to get the pocketop ir keyboard driver for ppc2002 from anybody who has one. Please e-mail abbas at skannet dot com. Thank you.
PLEASE AVOID POCKETOP LIKE A PLAGUE. I bought mine where return is impossible and now I'm stuck with a useless piece of hardware. PLEASE LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE AND AVOID THESE EXTORTIONISTS.
???
Ekun, I dont seem to get it. You said to avoid the hardware yet you're looking for one? pls clarify..thanks.
i beleive he meanr to say he has the hardware and looking for s/w
and wants others to stay away from the h/w
Yes, you are right. I have the misfortune of having the hardware, but I cant use it because the driver that came on the accompanying cd did not work and applying for a driver on their website elicited no reply up till now.

Got you. My bad Hey, any luck yet in obtaining the driver???
Meanwhile, what is the best keyboard solution for our device?
I understand Targus has one. Its driver which is available as a free download works partly with pocketop. But the output letters are different. Pressing Z gives you L etc.

Hello Fellows,
I just wish to know if is it possible to port our current WM devices? I mean, OEM drivers for Android.
If yes, would be wonderful for many WM users around the world that just wish to migrate to Android Plattaform for many reasons that many of us know pretty much.
Best Regards,
Erick
