I have just got my Mozart. Does anyone know of any apps that will allow me to print out documents, emails etc. directly from the phone (I used to have printboy many years ago when I had an old windows phone but can not find anything similar).

Hi all,
Just bought an Android tablet off evilbay.
Item number: 250907151743
Anything anyone can tell me about it would be welcome.
Namely what model is it & what hacks mods and upgrades I can do to it.
Right, the first problem.
I've transferred my home webpage to it but the standard windows path doesn't work, so what path do I use to call a webpage on the sdcard from within html?
Cheers.
It's better if you just post the link to it. About the homepage, why not just go to it on your device then save it as a bookmark?
I tend to just post the item number from habit 'cos quite a few forums I go on don't like links.
I'd rather have my normal homepage rather than a list of 30 bookmarks.
Of course, if I could just install Windows on it, life would be easier

You could also set as your homepage. How do you expect to install Windows on it?
That's what the 'if' was for
Tried Android several times, don't like it yet.
But at least if I don't get on with it, it'll sell easy enough - since Android is trendy
Personally I still prefer Dos and CP/M.
Hi
My father got a bunch of Lumia 800s as some sort of gift when he switched ISP contract but basically don't use them and asked me whether they might be able to run Android.
The only thing substantial that came up while searching was this youtube clip:
youtu.be/f4b_5i2u_HM
but no instructions or links to further resources. It is relatively recent, so I guess it should mean that there are some data on it somewhere?
That's only an app that makes it look like You use Android on it. A skin. Got nothing to do with Android. I was trying few of these apps. Just to check their look. Check the Marketplace. It's full of these apps. Not a big thing and they are good for nothing.
Fake video!

He is using a skin on top of WP7.5..
The App is called FunDroid. Just met it today again after I got a second Lumia 800 and checked the MarketPlace on it.

I know Haret. It was made to run Android on Windows Mobile. Not Windows Phone. I was using it on several WM devices I had.
The app that is shown in the mentioned video is the FunFroid app, that can be found in MarketPlace and got nothing to do with the Android OS itself. Just an app that looks like an Android homescreen and can launch some apps. Not Android apps, only the WP system apps like Phone, Browser, Messages. It only contains shortcuts to them.
[Q] Old SMS "simbackup.dsb" from early android, need to read them, no idea which app!
Long ago (2008 ish) I got my first android, a T-Mobile/Google/HTC G1 "Dream", I think. It had a sim backup function, or maybe an app I downloaded that did SIM backups, can't remember which. It may have been an integrated function within Android, from memory, accessed via import/export. But that's a very vague memory, quite possibly wrong.
I just now found some old contacts weren't ever moved to my current phone. I'm pretty sure the phone numbers were originally from messages I received at that time, so the sim backup files I have from those days (10 of them dated 2008 - 2009) should contain either the contact details, or SIM messages originally containing the phone numbers.
But does anyone have an idea what app might have created these, or what app might be able to read them? I have no idea the format used, it seems to be not plain text but I can't tell anything else.
A quick google search suggests "Sim Manager" but apparently that was on Windows Mobile only, and I've only ever had Android.
Hi all, I just received my new handset, a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact as an upgrade to my Samsung Galaxy S4. I'm not a noob per se, but these are noob questions I have, any answers for which I would be most grateful. My otherwise stellar google-fu has failed me these past two days and some clearer, direct advice and answers would be immensely helpful.
- A general question re: the Play Store. If I purchase a paid app, does it remain available to me to re-download and update forever after? Does it last between multiple/new devices? I want to buy Navigon Europe, but wanted to know if it's a once-only deal or remains available to me to download permanently.
- Contact syncing. On my past android phones, I've always somehow managed to import all my contacts from various online accts (eg. FB, GMail, etc). I have all my contacts (up-to-date) in Outlook on my PC and ideally want them, and only them, on my device contact list. I don't want the phone to synch anything with anything except my Outlook contacts but don't know what steps I can take to avoid that.
- Battery: I've had mixed messages about the first charge (currently in-progress at the time of writing!). Do Li-Ion batteries need to be charged for 16hrs or just until they're full?
- Converting the SIM Card: My S4 uses a MicroSIM, the Z3 Compact a NanoSIM. I heard they can be cut manually...is it safe to do that, or should I wait 3 days for TMobile (UK) to send me one?
I have two last questions that are more general advice than anything, but answers still appreciated!
- What apps/services are best to transfer my data over from my old handset to the new one? I can figure this out, but any recommendations from experience in doing the same would be welcome. I can figure out how to use them, just a general idea of apps/services to make sure I don't miss anything (texts, calendar, apps). Presumably I can download an app, *export* a file to my SD card, install the app and SD card on the new phone and "import" the file?
- This is a tough one...I have Barclays Mobile Banking app and kept my S4 stock since it apparently stopped working on rooted phones. I'd like to root my Z3 Compact but would have to stay stock for the Barclays app alone. Is there a good way to like trick the phone to believe it's not rooted, or stealth it, etc?
Any advice would be most gratefully received. I think I've answered the battery question but am still concerned about the rest. Many thanks in advance.

Paid apps are transferrable between devices, assuming you use the same Google account that it is linked to.
When you sign into Google (and your other accounts) it will ask if you want to Backup and Restore. Just leave it unchecked and then when finished importing Outlook contacts, you can go into your Google account and just make sure to only sync the options you're interested in by checking/unchecking whatever boxes you need.
I find a good way to transfer texts, call logs, apps, etc from device to device is by using an app like Go Backup. You were on the right path with the idea of backing up on the phone, transferring to PC, and switching it to a new phone. If you don't have access to a PC at the time, you can use something like Wifi File Explorer Pro to connect to it, assuming you have access to wifi or can wifi tether between the 2.
Cutting of the SIM is possible manually, but if you don't have access to a good SIM card cutter tool (obviously you don't have one in your possession, but any respectable repair shop or cell phone provider will have one. It only takes 5 seconds, but still there is a slight risk of damaging the card. It is best to get a new one. It is possible to cut with a sharp Exacto knife or something of the sort, but when going to nano, the margin of error is so small that I don't recommend.
As far as root and Barclay's, I don't believe it is an option. There have been attempts to bypass this restriction, but I believe that it has been without success. See:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.devadvance.rootcloak
Thank you for your helpful reply! I've moved most of my data over successfully, installed/copied most apps and setup most accounts. I did however ruin my MicroSIM in my attempts at converting it to Nano size. Have ordered a replacement but currently unable to call or text. Ah well!
I took the plunge and blew some money on the Play Store. I have the apps working now, and hope that they will remain available to me hereafter.
Thanks for the info on the Barclays App. I think I will skip rooting again *sigh* It's very annoying. There's a bunch of bloat I cannot freeze/quarantine, the ability to move apps to the SD card isn't available...all for one app If I found an APK of an old version, from back when it worked on a rooted phone, that might be an option?
Only issue I now have (apart from getting used to a few changes!) is with Email. On the S4, I set up my email as follows: Email: Forwarding Address - Incoming Server: BT Internet - Outgoing: Gmail (Set to send using my forwarding address). It worked fine. Now on the Z3C, I no longer have a box to enter my "Email address". Only "Username" and "Password". I can get my Emails from BT, can send via Gmail but it comes with "On behalf of..." in the sender field which is driving me mad! These are the little things that reallyget aggravating. Spent 2 hours already trying to work it out
Hello all,
I have recently purchased a few HP Ipaq PDAs, I believe one is an R4000 and the other R4100 (Or H4000, can't recall) anyway they're running Windows Mobile 2003. I have also purchased a HTC HD2 running Windows Mobile 6.5.
I have got hold of loads of Pocket PC games but only maybe 1 in 20 will run on either of these devices. Normally I get an error of "Not a valid Pocket PC Application" or similar. I found an FTP site with various games/apps for download specifically listed as either "Pocket PC" or "WM2003" but again, only a small selection seem to work.
Am I missing something? Is there a better source I should go to (I appreciate none shall be named here but if someone could hint). I would have thought looking for WM2003 apps would be the ones I need for the IPAQs and Pocket PC apps should work on either but at least one of the devices.
Any help would be appreciated
