Upgrade Internet Explorer - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

When I connect to the internet to retrieve my mail from Yahoo I'm told thet my version of IE is out of date and reverts back to an earlier version. Is there any way of upgrading IE on my XDA2? I've only had it a few weeks so I guess the software is pretty up-to-date.

official HTC wm6 problems

Hi all,
I recently flashed my X01HT used with Softbank Japan network.
I did a normal procidure
1. flash the ROM using HTC official Wm06.
It has been flashed perfect. no issues in flashing.
2. loading the Softbank AP settings.
I used the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298031&page=2&highlight=ConnSBM for getting the softbank AP settings.
these settings were working fine. without any issues. Then later i used my home Wifi lan, and then the pocket IE is not working. even if the wifi connection is connected IE give a messege "The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again."
most interesting part is, I installed opera for ppc at this point and its working fine.
When i try to connect to windows live, its connecting to gprs (which is working and connecting to server) eventhough the wifi connections is there and connected.
Now, if i delete the AP settings at this point. I can use wifi again.
at the same time now, when i try to loginn into the windows live, its give me a big error stating that the connection is not allowing me to access internet and check the settings with your service provider.
In short,
with the HTC official wm06,
I would like to use wifi connection when at home,
on the move i want to use softbank ap settings,
and i want to use windows live at home and on the move and should use the available wifi connection first, and if not available use the gprs.
guys help me, let me know if there is a sequence in which i sould be doing this or simthing like that.
POF ur the bestt person to ans this i guess.!!!

Help with Activesync Error Message

I have a att 8525 with wm6. My pc has windows xp home edition service pack 2 2002 edition. When I connect phone via cradle upon reboot of the pc I get a message new hardware found it then tries to sync. After this attempt I get a message device not detected so I do the troubleshoot after the trouble shoot it comes up with 2 issues one which really confuses me. I downloaded activesync version 4.5 but here is the message I get below
1 To synchronize email etc with your PC Microsoft Outlook XP or later must be installed
2 Unable to establish a connection between pc an my device. It then gives a link to a guide for this with all sorts of changes to make on the phone etc. I have performed a great deal of them changes enabling and disabling settings they ask for etc but this has not resulted in any change or a connection
My biggest question concerns the first issue mssage I get. 1 unable to synchroniz with my pc because it seems to says Microsoft Outlook Xp or later must be installed. When i went to install the activ sync my windows xp home edition was listed as compatible. So I am very confused here. Do I need to upgrade to the outlook 2007 ( More Money damn ) or is there another way perhaps a lower version software or am I missing something. If it matters i am connected via wifi wireless router which I just installed Any Help will be greatly appreciated, greatly

I couldn't sync after I did my first ROM upgrade and it was an official upgrade from AT&T, thats how I found this place. I would suggest reading through the Hermes WIKI, then looking through the Hermes section, it was a REALLY BIG help to me. Now on to your questions:
You have to have MS Activsync installed on th PC, I would try finding v4.2 as I have been having problems with v4.5 and 4.2 fixed it.
Are you trying to sync with the USB or just with the WiFi connection???? I don't think you can sync via WiFi or Bluetooth.
You only need Outlook 2007 if you use it as your E-mail client (I don't use MS Outlook or MS internet explorer).
Sync Solution!!
I had the same problem. I tried on my 3 pcs & figured out. USB connection is the best for all connection & sync.
Microsoft Outlook XP or later is must to sunc contacts & e-mail. if you dont have those & have Outlook Express you need a program (I forgot the name) to install in your computer & cab in DPA which sync contacts with Outlook Express.
i did following.
For sync connection make sure you have all security disable or you allow main 4 files to communicate. check this troubleshoot for help on allow files for different security programs.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/help/activesync/default.mspx
once you see device detection click "Explore" on active sync even it is connecting the device..if you see the phone files it means it is connected but somehow not synchronizing.
then try to muck aroung advance USB connection tick & untick. and also connected via The Work & The Internet connections in connection settings.
Hope it helps.

This happens to me when I upgrade to a new ROM, and I am unable to resync via ActiveSync. The first thing I check and gets me back to be able to sync 99% of the time is the USB setting on the phone.
Go to->Settings->Connections->USB to PC->Then UNCHECK "enable advanced network functionality"
That always gets me back to be able to sync again via USB. Hope that helps...(a little late I know....)

[APP][3 May 2010]Windows Live from the Windows Marketplace

Here is the latest Windows Live CAB that I downloaded from the WM Marketplace today (May 3, 2010). I like it cuz it allows you to sync and push your Hotmail email even if you're already pushing Gmail with ActiveSync. In essence, it's like having 2 Exchange accounts. It also gives you the "conversation" style emails in Outlook.
Windows Live never used exchange to sync email, what you say doesnt make sense as you have always been able to use an exchange account with a windows live account. Plus the version on the MP is currently 11.1, this would be a downgrade.
Any changelog?
Even if it doesn't use Exchange to push the Hotmail, it's basically the same thing, so who cares about semantics.
Please kindly state what the full version number of this *.cab file is... I know that the latest one provided in http://wl.windowsmobile.com/ is version 10.7.0061.0500.2000.

There has been some confusion about which version this is. I'm just going to leave it with the date that i downloaded it from the actual Windows Phone Marketplace. If you find a CAB that was downloaded after that date, then it's probably a later version.
Hmm...
Actually, I also have always been able to use Exchange + Hotmail.
Since I got my Windows Phone back in October 2009, I've always had Gmail on Activesync PLUS Hotmail on Windows Live and both were set to Push-mode (As item arrives). Maybe there's another feature they introduced that we haven't discovered?
Have a version for Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard (Motorola Q11)? Hugs from Brazil!
Some ROMs don't come with Windows Live or possibly with an older version.
This CAB will allow you to push both Gmail and Hotmail at the same time.
I recently got a windows live/messenger account and now I'd like to use it on my i780 via Wifi (not via Gprs, as that is quite expensive). Could you please tell me if this version can do so? The older ones all seem to be unable to do it. (exept if there was a way to use wifi as a modem)
thanks in advance

Are you asking can you use Windows Live over a Wifi connection? The answer to that is yes.
A cool little feature I noticed is that if you are using a ROM that does not have threaded email conversations, installing this CAB will enable that in Outlook. A nice little addition.

Thanks for your reply, but in my case, it doesn't work. Opera mobile, Outlook mobile and any other program that needs an internet connection are able to use wifi, but windows live insists on using gprs. When I try to log in(with wifi enabled and connected of course), it opens the connection bubble saying that a gprs connection is being started. If I click it away a couple of times, a notice appears that gprs doesn't work...
I already made an empty isp in the connection settings to prevent it from using gprs, but it somehow seems to start ActiveSync on the mobile. There I have no option to change the connection type to use wifi, but only wap gprs or mms etc.
Btw. my mobile is running its original windows mobile 6.0 Pro. Could that have something to do with this?
sorry for writing so much, but I want to make it as easy as possible for you to help me.
Thanks again
Using Wifi to get hotmail seems to be a problem. It always wants to use the cell data connection over wifi if both are available. I know that you can get windows live email through wifi if you turn on wifi and completely turn off the phone radio as if you have no service. But if both are on, I don't know how to make wifi take priority.

you could try DataController or Modaco NoData to (temporarily) disable your data connections. That way Windows Live is forced to use wifi
One thread with all official MS apps is not a bad thing, but someone looking specifically for Windows Live will have an easier time finding a thread dedicated to just that.

I'm having the same problem of unable to connect messenger on wifi. Even when I disabled the GPRS connection, Messenger will say that problem connecting to the data connection.
hmm I maybe wrong to intervene and say try using Palringo which has all MSN, Yahoo, Gmail etc (perhaps you are using Live messenger for a reason there) -

Thanks for your tip, you're quite right. I'm going to give it a try tomorrow in the morning.
With windows live etc. I haven't been able to even only take one step further. It still always uses the connection that is chosen at "programs - internet access - network connection". If I deactivate this connection(i.e.with NoData), it simply tries another one and if I stop all connections (or simply turn off the phone part of my mobile), it immediately says that there is no connection available. But it does still not use wifi, although it's turned on all the time. It works via GPRS, by the way, but it's much too expensive.
Expect to hear from me soon
EDIT: I have now tested palingo and I have to admit that it works really good! Also, there were no problems with wifi (of course)

[Q] OK, Skype is completely dead on Windows Mobile...

Even after Skype's February 2010 announcement that Skype would no longer support WinMo platform, Peter Parkes (brainless effing moron that he is, IMHO) said Skype just wouldn't be offering any more WM downloads but would continue to allow WinMo customers to connect and use the service. I'm not sure how long that lasted or when it stopped, but recently my brother loaded Skype on his Verizon BB Storm 2 and it works fine so I have been trying to connect my two WinMo phones from here in Thailand so we can converse inexpensively, one HTC 8525 WM 6.0, and lately Toshiba TG01 WM 6.5. Unfortunately both go through the motions, but neither will connect to the Skype server. I've even gone to Skype's support website and learned that other WinMo users are also complaining that they can no longer connect so it seems that Skype is indeed dead on WinMo.
So what's a suitable mobile VOIP alternative that will work on all platforms? Any ideas or comments?
Thanks!
you can try this one, even though not simple as skype.

Hi c4tevo25,
Checked your link and will give it a whirl if I can't find an all-in-one replacement for Skype.
Thanks for the tip!

Greetings fuerteventura,
I'll Google zoiper. Thanks for the tip!

You should really try again. Today I read your post and tried to establish a connection vià Wi-Fi using the WM Skype client. Lo and behold my first try was successful. I was able to make a call and to chat. So I think I can without any doubt say: It works.
Pay attention to the following details: If you tried to connect through your wireless carrier vià UMTS make sure your carrier does not block VOIP. A lot of them do. If you tried to connect using Wi-Fi ensure that your router's firewall does not block the ports Skype uses. You should be able to find out which ports are needed by Skype by visiting their website. If I remember correctly I had to open some ports myself in order to get skype working. And of course make sure you use the latest client. I have attached a .rar archive containing the latest version.
My phone is a Xperia X1 (WM 6.1) and I use the latest Skype client (not the Xperia panel).
Hi!
I've just downloaded the latest attached skype. After installation and checking the wifi router / 3g connection settings I experience the same continuous logging screen with an error message on timeout...
Any suggestions how to use it?
I'm using a gsm touch pro2 (rhodium100) with 6.5 energy rom (one of the latest builds)

Thanks for the info, altae! I've tried every version of Skype I could find for WinMo on 2 different WinMo phones with no luck. Skype works fine via my laptop, it's only WinMo where it won't connect either via my cellular data plan or connected via USB/Active Sync via a different ISP. I will contact my cell phone company tomorrow and confirm they aren't blocking Skype.
Thanks!
