Can somebody point me to a program that allows us to view all running process on the WM03SE? And hopefully w/ the ability to stop processes too. I believe some of the processes that run are not unloaded once the program that uses it ends. Maybe somebody can confirm this.

try this one ...hope can help you my friend
its free?
Task Manager
or try this one..its free
Thanks my friend. I'm actually using the airscanner prog from ur extROM. The process viewer built in seems to do the trick. I will still download these progs and will give it a try.
Fyi, tmail sometimes remains in memory even when its supposed to be terminated. A normal running unit after a soft reset has 15 processes running including airscanner files.
Thanks again.

does anyone have the cab for the cingular music id for sprint mogul?
Just do a search for musicid...the one I downloaded is for Cingular but works just fine on my Mogul...at least over wifi...hopefully, there is some better way however, as it does not recognize the touch screen among other things...Perhaps someone more educated can chime in...

Snoop around www.ppcgeeks.com you'll find the program. I have it on my Mogul and it works perfectly. I've always used it without wifi, actually I didn't even know it worked thru wifi. Anyways the touchscreen doesn't work while using the program but you can use your dpad to navigate and use the softkeys that are labled. I've always used it in the car and it takes about 30 sec to log onto a server and search a song library. Its a pretty cool application.
thanks
thanks for the website....i'll keep searching bu if anyone finds the cab plz post it....much props
pm me your email and i'll send it to you this weekend.
iight I got the cab...good looks on those who help me and props to them as well...here's the cab I attached.

do you have sprint? i don't know how you'd get charged they don't offer that feature
installation failed.
When I try to open this program....I get a dialog box with a red X.
it says:
The file 'MusicID' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.
Is there a fix on this?

Hello
I am a newcomer to smartphones and WM. Some questions for kind souls out there:
- Since a few days back the message and mail functions on my home screen don't work properly. I can see the first lines of messages and e-mails but I can't go to the inboxes, nor write new messages using the "new message"/"New e-mail" functions on the home screen. Instead I have to go through start menu/messaging and so on. That way it works fine. Does anyone know why this has happened and what I can do about it?
- I notice that many programs don't have an exit option, to close them down. I usually go into task manager to quit them. Is that what you are supposed to do or should you have them running? I don't get it.
- Is there no simple way to navigate between your programs and tasks? If I am using one program and want to use another, I usually go to home screen then start menu then open the other program (which is already running). There must be a simpler way?
- When I am using Google Maps with GPS and leave the program (though keeping it running) it seems the GPS stops its connection - when I enter the program again, it takes some time to get the signal again. This is quite inconvenient. Why is this so, and what can I do about it?
- After I did a backup (pimbackup) and a hard reset, my Quick notes application (included with the phone) was gone - and with it, my notes. Is there a way to retrieve them? If not, can I at least find the app somewhere - or even better - does anyone know a good freeware for making notes and sharing them between phone and PC?
- When I restored my contacts I accidentally chose to include my messenger contacts in my contact list. I really don't want those there but I cannot find any way of deleting only them. Does anyone know?
Thanks!

That's true, just close using task manager.

Task Manager or the back-button.

I think this is to make sure your battery doesn't drain. Don't have a solution, but there are probably tools available that keep your GPS alive.
Thank you for your views. But doesn't anyone have any better or alternative tips? The home screen messaging problem keep coming back and it shouldn't, I don't want to reboot all the time, there must be a reason for it.
Hello,
Since I have a certificate installed to be able to sync my business email I am obliged to have the screen lock turned on and I am not able to switch it off. This is especially annoying when TomTom is started and after 5 minutes the screen goes black and I need to enter code (while driving) to see driving instructions.
Things done to resolve problem:
-Trick 27. Disable Auto Screen Lock, entry is in registry. Still greyed out option in screen lock options, must be started after 0, 1 or 5 minutes and not able to complete shutdown.
-MobiControl is installed, makes things a little bit better, but still on certain times screen lock is started
I hope my problem is well described and somebody can help me. Thanks in advance!
anyone who can help?

I don't know why the cert forces the lock.
What OS and ROM version you running? Sense?
You could try removing or overwriting LOCKSCREEN.DLL in the windows folder if WinMo but you will need something like Resco or Total Commander since this file is in ROM. No idea if this will solve your problem but worth a try.
Good luck!

OS is Windows Mobile 6.5
ROM is 1.72.172.0
And indeed are using Sense
I will try to remove the LOCKSCREEN.DLL later today, and will report the outcome. Thanks so far.

I've tried the lockscreen.dll deletion but that did not quite work the way I wanted , went back to backup and found the following solution:
Enable/Disable the Exchange security policy – HKLM\Security\Policies\00001023: 0 = Enabled; 1 = Disabled
After that I could disable the lock
This is exactly my problem, I want to try this solution. I installed Total Commander, but it is not clear how I can use this program to modify the registry. Who caqn help me with a simple description how I can do this?
Peter
google phm registry editor and use it to edit the registry as the above poster said.
Okay, digging deep into Android's source.... not for the feint of heart, and not for those whose coding skills are somewhere just above, "Hello, world!" (Me)
Here's the deal. We all know, with Froyo, Google disabled task killers. No app can kill another app. I for one am happy, because killing all apps when your screen goes off is stupid, pointless, and all kinds of harmful. Well, happy but for one little thing....
Killing other apps still does have a purpose! Specifically, in my case, I want to replace my long-press home option with a cool app switcher that also gives me the ability to kill a running app if I know I am done with it for the day and it refuses to die naturally. I'm sure there are other legitimate uses for it, such as killing everything before a benchmark. Sure, these are very specific, uncommon uses, but a thousand apps on the Market exist for specific, uncommon uses, and I think that most hackers/modders with su here would know better than to let a task killer run rampant. Anyone wanna discuss re-enabling this on 2.2?
Edit: I should correct myself. I keep saying "app," what I mean is "service." I know you can still stop (most) apps, but not services. Which keeps a lot of apps running, despite your best efforts. Forgive me for misusing the words
wait task managers dont actually kill in 2.2? This is news to me, as one I have downloaded seems to work fine..

Taskiller will show the app was killed. I'm sure many others will too. But kill an app, then go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Running, and you'll see that it's still running.

Forgive the obvious question but can't the services just be killed by a root request/process? If so, creating an interface for this should be easy as pants.
Of course, root is required but that shouldn't be a constraint.

True. But wouldn't it make more sense to allow the dozens of non-root apps that already exist to do this, rather than have to re-write an app that does the exact same thing, but has to use su? It would be safer, too. Running everything as root all the time runs contrary to the whole idea of Linux. It's better to give apps the permissions they need, rather than give everything unlimited power.

Oh, I see. It might be useful but that's the essence of the Froyo changes... it can't be done now without root. You've have to compromise the security model... probably not a feasible route...
I think you are mistaken, maybe in Manage Applications it still shows it as "stoppable", however... I just did a test.
1. Opened DDMS on my PC.
2. Took note of an app to test with (speedtest) that was currently running.
3. Opened Advanced Task Manager.
4. Killed speedtest with task manager and watched it disappear from the running process list in DDMS.
Obviously ATM was able to kill the task. And, just so you know, it did not start running again. Also, it was removed from the "Running" tab in Manage Applications, so you are double wrong.
And, in case you were going to further the argument that you meant to say "Services", I just killed the PhoneFusion VM service with ATM, and it was removed from the running process list in DDMS.

Or create something that uses su to kill these processes for third-party apps, without the need for them to have su. Similar to superuser apk, but on a more specific level. Or, we could make it even better, and have superuser hand out specific, user-approved permissions, rather than permit root access as a whole to any app.
Apparently there's not a lot of interest in this, but I thought it would make an interesting discussion.
Hi Folks.
I've done something a bit silly and hoping some Android expert on here may be able to help me.
I stupidly installed an app from an external source using a link that was given me for a specific app.
I am now freaking out about malware/spyware and all the rest of it.
At this point, I must point out that there is nothing to immediately suggest the app is bad. I only installed it a few hours ago on my phone but there hasn't been anything suspicious like extra battery use, heat, unknown apps in the list of battery usage or pop ups or anything like that. It could be that it's absolutely fine (and probably is.)
What I'm more concerned about is that there may be some nefarious background process running that means I suddenly wake up and find my bank account has been drained, or I'm being blackmailed by some Russian hacker that has hold of my emails and photos etc.
TWO IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS (before anybody states the below:
- Yes, I know it was a stupid thing to do and I don't know what came over me. But it is done now.
- I know that a full factory reset is the best way to clear all but I'm desperate to avoid that. It took me two days to setup my new S21 Ultra and hate the thought of going through all of that again!
I know that Google Play Protect helps with apps from the GP Store, but I assume this is not relevant here because it came from an external source. Is there any kind of facility where I can upload the app and it scans it? Or am I screwed?
I also know you can download Norton etc but I read that they may not be effective on things like this. FYI, I am running the January 1st Android security patch (the most recent available.)
Thanks in advance.
Scan the apk file with online Virustotal.
Meh... show us the apk in question.
I have a few side loaded apps, so what?
Playstore is no sure bet either... load what you need, disregard the rest and toss the bad ones.
A badly written app can cause headaches even after it's uninstalled. Not as common with Android as in Windows but it happens.
On a clean load I'm careful what I install ie known good apps.

Thanks. I've attached the apps. Thanks for your help and advice. I've scanned them on VirusTotal and they appear to be clean..
If you are worried about this, then you need to flash the phone. Then install the app to protect your phone from the official source.
