COM versions - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Could someone please explain what COM2/3/5 actually referrs to?
I'm assuming it's something to do with the OS version that a particular ROM uses? (COM2 = 6.5, COM3 = 6.5.3?, COM5 = 6.5.5?)
I'd check the Wiki but it's down, and i've also searched
Thanks!

to all the .cab specialists ;)

i've absolutely no experience about creating .cab-files, so is it maybe possible to anyone of you creating me one or more .cab's containing a few settings and altering a few reg-keys? i would appreciate beeing able to use this in my sd-config further on an maybe it could be useful for some other german located people using wwe-roms...
so here we go:
first i need a .cab switching my regional settings to german, and activating the connection-wizard using the param's "deutschland" and "Vodafone" , if possible.
second i have some reg tweaks, as there are (i post the altered values only):
HKCU/ControlPanel/Phone/ShowSim : DWORD = 0
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/ActionScreen/APP_0 : Name = Neue Email
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/ActionScreen/APP_1 : Name = Neue SMS

would be very great when sombody could do this for me! many many thanks in advance.....
you can use a cab manager to create cabs.
cabs can contain only reg settings while no other files in it.
you can find a 30 day trial one here:
http://www.ocpsoftware.com/download.php?nm=cecabmgr
i don't know any other freeware if there is..
here is a cab containing the reg entries in your post..
didn't test it but it should work,
u can backup those entries before, but i think it's not necessary..
hay, thank you very much for your quick support!!!
i will have a look at the cab-manager right now but allthough anybody can have a look at the regional- and connection-wizard settings? thans to all!

I don't think you can activate the connection-wizard by using a cab. perhaps you can change the default settings, but you will still have to run the Wizard (mannually or by a sort of scripting). If I knew how, I would help you out but unfortunally ... I don't...
You could create a cab that creates a shortcut to the Wizard so that on start up it will be loaded... (It may also be possible using a setup.dll file, but I have no idea how to implement this kind of functionality)
hi folks, sorry for diggin' out this old thread once more
i owned myself an artemis now and so i need a little modification on this settings- cab file once made for my old prophet..
so i asked myself, if one of you would be so kind again...
here are the reg tweaks that i would appreciate to have in one cab for usage in my sdconfig:
HKCU/ControlPanel/Phone/ShowSim : DWORD = 0
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/ActionScreen/APP_0 : Name = Neue Email

i've made my changes to the previous version in red, so maby you only have to modify the old cab attached above...
many many thanks in advise to that, i never get through to making cab files myself..
Here is the new cab modified with settings in RED based on the old.
thank you for your very quick support!!! this is a cab now with all the old settings and with the red ones changed respectively added on it, to get you right? wow, that's great!!! many many thanks!!! im very happy now and so the next hardreset can come for me...
For networkwizard setting;
Put new on the registry:
\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\RIL\OperatorNames
new key such as:
xxxyy and the value of the Brand of your GSM operator
where xxx is MCC and yy is MNC (Five digit number)
And for Vodafone there are three Vodafone operator on Germany so you could put the key such as:
"26202"="deutschland" (or "Vodafone" which ever you like)
"26204"="deutschland" (or "Vodafone" which ever you like)
"26209"="deutschland" (or "Vodafone" which ever you like)
Then tap networkwizard.
Hope this will help you.

[TUT] How to name and mark a thread. !!Please make sticky!!

A howto on how to mark threads good.
Because I'm pissed by threads with titles, that say nothing I've done a tutorial on how to name and mark threads right. I use things done in much forums and my own ideas.
Let's start.
First: How to name a thread good.
You have to use a thread that says much, for example “How to change the bootscreen“ and not “bootscreen“ or “question“ or something like that.
Second: How to mark threads.
Let's take the example from before.
The title “How to change the bootscreen“ could be a tutorial, but also a question. Now it is a question.
We use the [] tags for that. In them we write QUE for question. In our example this would be “[QUE] How to change the bootscreen”
You can also use more marks at once.
For example: “[ROM][WM6.1][WWE] Charmer Mobile 6.1”
Now a list of useable forms in the []:
TUT = tutorial
ROM = ROM
WM5 = WindowsMobile5 ROM
WM6 = WindowsMobile6 ROM
WM6.1 = WindowsMobile6.1 ROM
QUE = Question
APP = Application
IDE = Idea
REQ = Request
REF = Reference
THE = Theme
MOD = Moderation
DIS = Discontinued
Lang codes:
WWE = World Wide Edition
ENG = English
GER = German
And so on.
When I've forgotten some please post and I'll add to main thread.
Please make this sticky Vlodeck. Thank you.

Solution to the error message using Gen.Y dualboot

Greeting.
Please note, this is not a solution for HD2. Only tested on TP2, Rhod100.
Thanks to yozgatg to his little but great work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
The cabs should work easily as yozgatg described in his thread. But a problem seems to annoy many people, included me, is the error message:
sub __main_bootandroid
Win32Exeception
Continue?
The solution I find out by doing some research on Bing, is:
1. Unlock the Registry on WM by changing:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies
00001001, Dword, 1 (originally is 2, change it to 1)
00001005, Dword, 40 (originally is 16, change it to 40)
2. after step 1, turn off the security warning by changing:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\
0000101a, Dword, 1 (Originally is 0)
After that the problem is solved.
Please note: This solution is only for people who has the right setup of Gen.Y Dualboot. If you see any information like "android is missing", that means your setup has problem.
My device is TP2, Rhod100.
Hope this solution can be useful to some people.
didn't work on my tp2 verizon ?

[TOOL/WinCE]CeSetBacklightLevel.exe

Thought I should share a little tool I wrote.
Abstract:
Changes Windows CE's backlight level on the fly, no warm boot required. It's a command line utility without an UI.
Requirements:
CE device with ARM processor.
Usage:
CeSetBacklightLevel.exe <intensity>
Example: CeSetBackLightLevel 100
MortScript example: Run("CeSetBackLightLevel.exe",100)
Download:
Source code and executable are attached to this post.
HTH
nice, could this with a mort script be used to set back-light according to the hour of the day ?

can you help me make a loop in mortscript to check the time of the device and compare it to a look-up table that has the intensity of the screen for some periods of time ?

In Windows CE we can't use Mortscript's RunAt command.
Perhaps somewhat like this:
Code:
If (FileExists("\Windows\CeSetBacklightLevel.exe"))
If(RegKeyExists("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Brightness")||RegKeyExists("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Backlightlevel"))
PollInterval = 1000 * 60 * 10 // 10 minutes
StartTime = 630 // 6:30AM
EndTime = 2130 // 9:30PM
WantedBacklightLevel = 100 // Hex: 64
While(1)
CurrentHour = 0
CurrentMinute = 0
CurrentSecond = 0
CurrentDay = 0
CurrentMonth = 0
CurrentYear = 0
GetTime ( CurrentHour, CurrentMinute, CurrentSecond, CurrentDay, CurrentMonth, CurrentYear )
TheTime = CurrentHour * 100 + CurrentMinute
If ((TheTime >= StartTime) && (TheTime <= EndTime))
CurrentBacklightLevel = -1
If( RegKeyExists("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Brightness"))
CurrentBacklightLevel = 0 + RegRead("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Brightness)
ElseIf( RegKeyExists("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Backlightlevel"))
CurrentBacklightLevel = 0 + RegRead("HKCU","ControlPanel\Backlight\Backlightlevel")
EndIf
If(CurrentBacklightLevel >= 0)
If (CurrentBacklightLevel <> WantedBacklightLevel)
Run ("\Windows\CeSetBacklightLevel.exe", WantedBacklightLevel)
EndIf
Else
// error occurred
Exit
EndIf
EndIf
Sleep(PollInterval)
EndWhile
EndIf
EndIf
I haven't had the oportunity to test it on my 2din. Has anyone tested the code ?

Hi there,
should this tool work on Becker TA 7827?
Hi, could someone tell me how to compile the C code jwoegerbauer published?. I have Visual Studio 2008 Pro, but do not know how to get an WinCE .exe.
I want to make some changes, because this utility does not work for me. My unit is a GPS Car, WinCE 6.0 NWD_308 Nowada Board, and I have problems with brightness. This:

Thank you.
Nice, hope will get an .exe
@jwoegerbauer did you implement the loop in miopocket lite ?

As compiler I use Pelles C - it's freeware. Supports compiling native C-code for ARM devices.

1.
You know that you can't compile a MortScript script into an executable? If you really need an executable, then you have to re-write the code sample shown earlier in 'C' or any other suitable programming language a compiler exists for.
2.
Don't use Miopocket Lite, hence not tested so far. BTW: Some time ago I've written MioPocket 4.0 Mini FV and published here:
https://code.google.com/p/miopocket-mini-40-fv/
Hi, jwoegerbauer.
Thanks for the info. I now have installed Pelles C and I can compile simple things. Abusing your kindness, could you tell me what program lines I need to write to generate a beep? I think MessageBeep, but the compiler takes Error
I am a newbie and I want to check your code to see why it does not work exactly in my unit.
Thanks again !!!

There are a number of functions from the Standard C Runtime libraries missing under Windows CE.
But, MessageBeep API function should be present.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa930642.aspx
Thanks again, jwoegerbauer. With your help I made my first program in C (for Windows CE). Instead of the classic "Hello World", I made a Beep. This can be useful to use as debug semaphore. This is the code, for compile with Pelles C in WinCE Pocket PC Mode:
#include <windows.h>
int PASCAL WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPWSTR lpszCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
MessageBeep(MB_OK);
return 0;
}
I used the MessageBeep in your code.
HANDLE hBL=CreateEvent(NULL,FALSE,FALSE,L"BackLightChangeEvent");
if(hBL)
{
MessageBeep(MB_OK);
SetEvent(hBL);
CloseHandle(hBL);
retVal=1;
}
And really, the program executes the SetEvent (HBL). But does not work on my GPS car WinCE 6 .

A question, jwoegerbauer.
I tried downloading your MioPocket Mini 4.0 FV from here: https://miopocketmini40fv.codeplex.com/releases
But the project is empty. Can you tell me where to I can download it (or send me by email), I have interest in trying it.
Thanks.

Please Help, how i can install REMIX OS 3.0 on MacBook Pro?

Hello,
maybe anyone can help me, how i can install the new Remix OS 3.0 on the Macbook?
I only find toturials for Remix 2.0. I only want Remix OS 3.0 on the Macbook, no BootCamp, no OS X and any other bullsh*t.
Have u some realy good toturial for a mac. I dont know anything about the Mac Products.
Thank u a lot!!!
----------------------------------- New Infos -----------------
Now I have the following configuration made:
MAC OS X, BOOTCAMP activated, released 200 GB for a second operating system.
Then packed on the partition, the files from the file IMAGE draw OS 3.0.
The following error now that while system starts after confirmation in the Resident mode but loads at the site no longer where the draw OS logo starts flashing in white.
Now have the following versions already from Try and always the same error:
Draw OS 2.0 + 3.0 and 2.0 + 3.0 Hacket Edition
What has struck me is a message the root is not active or something like that and CPUv0 or so, as he could not really what to do with the CPU!?!?
Have also tried the Resident mode by "TAB" / "e" key, with the Append to quits "INSTALL = 1", "INSTALL = 1 DEBUG =" and "SCR = DATA = DATA_IN_MEM = 1 DPI = 256 UVESA_MODE = 2880x1800 "as there behind the first two variants.
After entering he did not even come to the REMIX OS and it says Create new now in 5 seconds.
