Hi All,
Followed the upgrade procedure for my XDAII, and have found that (apart from one or two little bugs, and the camera app being absolute rubbish) WM5 is o.k.
However, WindowsMedia 10 is causing me a headache - I can't seem to get the desktop player to sync via ActiveSync 4 (Build 4343) to copy across any music files to the XDA - I have to use an SD card reader and sync the playlists directly to the card, rather than through the device itself.
Any ideas?
P.S - Pocket Railplanner (http://www.travelinfosystems.co.uk/) works O.K with WM5!
Is there a 3rd-party SW that can replace Office Mobile for non-touchscreen smartphones?
I am looking for a program that would fulfill at least the minimal requirements (such as basic editing, or for Excel, basic calculation) but still be compatible to MS Office on the desktop
Thanks in advance!
Manni

Thanks for the prompt resonse !
Have DL the trial version but can't get it to work on the S740 (except for Excel which passes). Apparently, they support the S710 only
Anything else?
I tried on S740 and it worked well.. but the weird thing is i cant seem to install it on the storage card.
That's interesting; how did you do it? Above all, how do you handle the split screen in keyboard mode?
Which version did you use?
The version i used was 3.0010.
What do you mean by splitscreen in keyboard mode ?
When I go to keyboard mode, I get a screen that is split in two

I don't see that.. its working perfectly on my device.
May be there is a difference because my phone is the German language version

With Office Mobile (Word, Excel), you can create new docs, edit...
On pc, create empty word document, copy it to device and open with Word Mobile. Then right soft-key and chose EDIT... If you are done, right soft-key, File-Save As... Write name of doc and save. Thats all.
I know all that, korenisko; and that's not the issue.
The problem is that the functionality of Office Mobile for non-touchscreens is laughable; the most rudimentary functions, such as cut & paste are not possible.
If you want to use the device in its full potential, a replacement of Office Mobile is called for

Hey all,
I tried searching the forums and the Wiki but didn't see anything quite relating to what I'm trying to figure out.
I just got my hands on an HD2, previously I have a MyTouch 3G. I'm wondering if there is a way to move over my text (SMS) and MMS messages from the Android MyTouch 3G to the WM6.5 HD2?
The only way I could think of right now would be to use Sprite back up on both and do it that way, but I don't feel like shelling out $5 for the Android version and $30 for the WM version.
Any suggestions?
a way to do this (NOT THE BEST WAY)
- is backingup the sms/mms messages to your SD card
- add the sd card to your HD2 and copy a andriod port on you sd card
- with the dualboot to Android you can import the messages again.
now if you need you older messages .. just booti into Android and your set
maybe you can find a good backup application for android on appmarket (google it, download on your pc and drop on your sd card and install on your phone) now all paid apps are free to get
for WinMo you can use Omarket
I saved my messages on the SIM card, then I moved them from the SIM in Windows. I do not know of a cross-platform backup software Yet
Hello I was wondering if WM6.5 can be ran from the SD card and if so How do I do it I am using HTC HD2 running WP7 in Nand with MagLDR 1.12 I have Several Android Version I am Running. I am also Wondering if I can boot Ubuntu on it or if I lost that when I upgraded to WP7 Thx for any and all help

i really, really, really want this to happen so i can flash android thru nand and run wm6.5 from sd coz i still need my garmin xt from time to time.
Thanks for the post, and the replies. I was wondering the same thing. I've got a really smooth nand of android gingerbread and have only one reason that i need wm 6.5 back. The video recording. Unless someone can fix the instability of the 720p recording for android....

You realize that winmo6.5 can't do 720p recording either, right? The only OS that can do 720p recording right now on the HD2 is WP7... not sure if there's any issues with it... I haven't tried or tested yet.

Well, I feel pretty uneducated right now with the phone I've had for almost a year. Thanks for the correction. This of course creates a new set of questions. What is the HD2 w/ Windows Mobile 6.5's recording resolution? All I know is, and maybe it's the android rom i'm using, but the recording on my hd2 when it was stock is way better than the recording from the android rom. Now I'm curious if there is a way to fix my issue. I don't need 720p recording. Just the quality that a stock hd2 is capable of. Thanks again!

That´s exactly the reason i am hoping for a SD-WinMo build
I have switched over to Nand Android and do not want to miss it, but i do miss my TomTom with rather new maps for WinMo 6.5.
i too am interested on having the ginger 2.3 nand and on sd the wm 6.5 ( igo and camera quality better)
some new info about this ?
regards
I love to see WM6.5 run on SD card, I missied Tomtom on Window mobile. I have Navigon on HD2 android but TomTom still my favorites of all navigiation.
Patience is the key... running WM from a card poses many more problems and requires a lot more time/effort than getting android to run from a card....
IF, that's an if not a when, the DFT get this working then you wont be able to miss it don't worry

Yea, that's the reason I kept my WM6.5 as well
Is there a way to install WM6.5 and Android on the same internal NAND? and use a boot loader to choose? My Rafdroid SD build is soooo veeery slow and apparently the speed settings are already built in fast. takes about 5-10 seconds to respond to anything.

I Have the EXACT same situation - only reason I need Windows Mobile on my phone.
The only reason, why I´m still using windows mobile is, because I love windows myphone. It´s soo great. If you are flash the rom again of something fails, you can sync all the contacts, sms and so on.
Some days ago I recieved a mail from microsoft, that the windows mobile market place inclusive myphone will discontinued ...
The market place ends on 15th july and myphone on 7th august this year.
Very bad
But is the global, or in germany only?
Here is the full mail (translated from german into enlish with google xD):
Sry for the not working links, but I´m not able to post real links

I got the same notice here in the US. They are shutting it all down. I realize they are trying to push WM7, but it angers me that they don't maintain WM6 support for several years, like they did with XP.

Some reason for me, Garmin is best for me and I like to keep it. I am hoping one day Garmin will support Android.
I just tried Papago for Android, it is not as good as Garmin. Far behind!
Any new news? WinMob 6.5 on SD would be nice.
