Hi,
Is there a way that we are able to go to the contacts in the HTC-P3300 and hold the contact so that it links with the Tom Tom to navigate to that specific destination?
Thanks,
I don't know about going TO TomTom FROM contacts, but you surely can do it from within TomTom:
With TomTom active, tap the screen to bring up the options menu. Then click "Navigate To." Now go to the second page in that menu and you should see the "Contact" option. Click it to browse your contacts and navigate directly to the ones for which you have addresses. It's pretty cool!
Good Luck!
While in Contacts list, long click on a contact with an address and a menu will pop-up, select "Navigate to".
Hi Zerimar I have tried that however there is no navigate to. I did a factory restore which reinstalled 6.020. I also installed the 6.010 back to 6.020. I have called TT and they are supposed to get back to me.
Thanks,
Stupid me. I replied without checking my device. This options seems not to be available in tt6 but I just installed the PIMAddIn.cab from tt5 and it works.
could you email it to me at [email protected]?
Where do you install it.
Thanks,
I've checked the .cab file with WinCE Cab Manager and I have not found any registry entries. It just installs .dll files in the \Program Files\Contact Navigation\ directory thus it should work on WM5 devices. Remember my device is only running W2003SE.
Hi,
I took the PIMAddIn.cab and installed it in the same folder however when i double click on it all my contacts open up. The navigate to is still not there.
Hi Zerimar,
I followed your instructions. Everything works now.
Thansk a million!!!!!!!!!
Just curious guys, what is the advantage to getting the option within your PIM contact list when TomTom is going to open anyway when you navigate? Why go through all that work to hack an option that is available to you from within the program itself?
Just wondering...

TomTom 6.02 has the "Navigate to contact"option! You do not need extra cabs to do this. When you select "Navigate to" you then use the arrow to the next page, and the 'Contact" option is very clear for you to select.

The original question (in a rephrased fashion) was the possibility of activating tt6 and navigating to the contact's address from Outlook Contacts. This was a feature in tt5. With the small trick, I can have it both ways.

In a way I agree with your line of thought, but when dicin raised the question and I found out that "Navigate to" was no longer an option in Outlook Contacts the idea poped-up. The hack took about a minute and doesn't occupy much space. Now we can have it both ways.
I noticed on the HTC-P3300 using the feature does work however it is slow. That is the only part that is slow. I also noticed that company names do not show up. If you use contacts and calendar heavily through outlook it is much faster than going within TT.

You're welcome dicin. Btw, you can retain the PMAddIn.dll and the PMAddInXXX.dll (XXX=language of choice) and delete the rest.

I think it looks slow because tt has to fist load, etc. What do you mean by comany names do not show up?
Btw, I pm'd you regarding quick gps fix, any ideas?
If I have in my outlook a contact listed by company name only it will show up as a blank listing in the TT contact list.
In the TT it is slow when you type in the contact list letters to find a specific name otherwise everything else is great.
The HTC works very good even though the processor speed. I have been able to have the wifi, gprs, phone mode and GPS navigation on all at once with no problem. It will navigate and receive calls with no problem. The volume is great and the reception is outstanding. I have had many phones and I mean many. I also modd all kinds of Moto phones and this is the first WM5 and must say i am impressed.
I have read your PM.
Where do you want me to send the files? It will be towards the end of the day.
Cheers,

Copy the cab file somewhere in your device, ie. Storage Card. Using an Explorer program, go to where the cab file was saved. Double-click on the cab file and do a soft reset. If you want you can delete the undesired dlls from the folder \Program Files\Contacts Navigation\. Be sure to keep the PIMAddIn.dll and the dll file of your language choice.

Hi
I am asking myself why the pocket outlook is such a mess/crap. What software are you using for emailing?
I am using lonely cat profimail, but I would like to have a client, which is a little more integrated. The problem, I have with the built-in software is, that the switching between the accounts and folders is crap. I am using IMAP on 4 mail accounts and switching between them is more or less crap.
so please give me some ideas on other software..
thanks
It's Profimail for me all the way. Haven't found any decent alternatives.

I says that the aplication could not be installed due to the unthrusthat certificate, how could I install the app?
I've installed flexmail, but I've uninstalled it after a few days. Now I can't acces the standard SMS/mail-application. I get an error that Flexmail can't be found.
Does anyone have a solution?
TIA

i installed it the other day and uninstalled it with no problems. make sure you go into settings and uninstall from there. if it is still a problem, try to use a file browser and make sure that all files associated with this program are deleted, then power cycle your device. there is obviously still some part of the program installed
I had the same problem not being able to use sms afet flexmail was removed.
use file explorer go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs folder and delete the fleximail icon. Reboot and you should have no problems, I'm not.
I've uninstalled it the correct way, and deleted everything that was left in the programs folder, but I still can't use the original sms/mail-software... :-(
I still get the same error (Could not find 'Flexmail', check this and that and bladibla... translated roughly from my Dutch s620)
Can anyone help me?
Thanx!
it tried flexmail now, becaused i used it on my pocket pc. but the smartphone version does not really come close to the ppc version. too bad. I really liked it..
maybe it gets better with new version...
ps: uninstall worked good. i still can use the built-in mail thing

The quickest way to fix this if you haven't already figured it out is to reinstall the flexmail application to the smartphone. Once reinstalled, go into the options and deselect use flexmail as the default program for both mail and sms/mms.
Then, [IMPORTANT] soft-reset the device (which btw is good practice when using WM smartphones). Once the phone has rebooted, immediately go into settings and uninstall.
You should not have any issues with the uninstall if it is the first thing you do once the phone reboots.
Good luck!
Thanxalot, that worked!
Has anyone figured out how to save email to the Storage Card in WM6? This worked in WM5:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI
AttachPath=\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments
PropertyPath=\Storage Card\Inbox
...but doesn't work in WM6
HKLM->system->Inbox->Settings
click values
menu->new value->string
you are going to create 2 new values here the first is
value name PropertyPath
value Data \Storage Card\Mail
the second will be
value name AttachPath
value data \Storage Card\Mail\Attachments
reset you phone and you should only have the Mail folder along with the attachments folder in mail folder on your storage card
NOTE some say it may create a storage card 2 folder and some issues i have NOT yet Have had any issues
check it out
Thanks
this was a HUGE help
Thanks guys this works great.
Didnt work.
Didn't work here. Does someone have a registry import or a cab file for this?
when you are finished laughing at me, can someone please tell me where the \ is located on the keypad. I've been staring at it for 10 minutes and can't locate it.

Press the SYM/Camera button (to the right of the SPACE bar) when typing, and it'll pull up several symbols to choose from. The "\" symbol should be in there.
Thanks... Sorry for being a moron. Funny that the forward slash is on the key pad, but not the back slash. After all, this is windows, not unix.

Messaging App not opening
Hello,
I hope someone can help me with this. I have been using this Email to Storage Card app for a while, and I have experienced the "Storage Card2" problem that some people have reported. The issue I'm facing at the moment is that nothing happens when I click on "Messaging" or in the area that tells me how many messages I have. (Since this started, I haven't been receiving e-mails either.)
Is there a fix for this issue, or should I go through the dreaded hard reset? I'm having other issues which would lead me to think a hard reset is the answer, but I feel it's a big headache. I will have to backup the whole device and make sure my contacts and calendars sync, and then reload everything.
Is there a way to backup my wifi settings?
Thanks in advance for some suggestions,
Ram
Hello. I've checked the previous pages and didn't see anyone having the same question. That probably means i am the only one so dumb in here)))
Basically, last night i was playing with overclocking my XDA Orbit being insured that all the contacts are syncronized. At some point (273MHz) the device stopped responding so i had to soft reset it. Later i found that nothing got lost BUT my contact list with all the numbers. Next, I open Outlook and see that none of them were saved there. WTF is ActiveSync is doing then? And another problem is that i cannot use backup of my old WM2003 contact list because there is no such option as Backup/Restore in WM6. Any ideas? Please,HELP. I really need those numbers back...

The contacts in the Orbit are gone...
The contacts in the Outlook not sync'ed hence they too gone...
Cannot import 2003 backup into WM6 - different structure
Option 1 - if you have old outlook backup - you can re-import into new outlook file and they re-sync again
Option 2 - Manually enter all the numbers you remember
Option 3 - Nothing
Basically the fact is if you cannot see the contacts in the fone - they are gone! If you cannot see in outlook they are gone - only option is to get from another source!
You mentioned 2003 backup - what did you take the backup with? Maybe you can still read using the same software and try to retrieve the number - or use another 2003 model to import into it
The backup was taken using Backup/Restore feature of WM2003. But I really wonder now, WHY Microsoft decided not to include this option in WM6? If anything happens, you're properly f****d, like me now.
BTW, WM2003 Contact list backup can be accessed with Notepad, but the data looks a bit messy that way.

Good luck with the retrieval...
don't take it personally, i meant "You" in general
I analyzed the chain of events and it seems like i found the root of the problem. It's was nothing to do with overclocking or the device itself. Its ActiveSync. As I usually don't use Outlook, the contact list there was always empty. And this blessed child of Microsoft instead of copying contacts from XDA to Outlook did it other way round thus erasing everything on the phone. Don't know what to do, laugh or cry, but it's so... so... ridicilous!
Thanx for your help anyway, much appreciated
Does anyone know how to uninstall this? When i try to do it on the phone or over Activesync I get a warning message that it could not remove all of the program and ultimately the entire program is still installed. It takes up too much room for what it does (and I think there's a battery issue with it as well) Thanks

Try using the Uninstall application of this program: http://www.dinarsoft.com/memmaid/ Once the program is uninstalled, just delete the remaining folders and then run the Quick Clean and that should remove all remnants of the Uninstalled program.
Thanks. It helped to remove mobitv and xmradio which were entirely useless to me and took up a lot of room. However, when I tried to uninstall memmaid it left a few bits behind - there are folders remaining in the program directory... in fact the MobiTv icon still exists in my program directory leading me to beleive that it's just deleting a folder and not removing the program from my reigstry, etc. It's a start though. Thanks again
Re: uninstall
This may be a silly question, but was VC cooked into the rom originally or did you install it yourself? If it was cooked in you will not be able to remove it. (As is true for any cooked in application.)
Best wishes,

Quick question; when using MemMaid, did you use the Quick Clean with all items checked? by default not all are checked.
Dead shortcuts
Dead Registry
Bad uninstall (files)
Bad Uninstall (Registry)
These are just a few items I would make sure are checked..
Thanks for the help guys. It was not part of a cooked rom and after checking the boxes on memmaid and rebooting a few times VC is gone (and 5 megs are free). After uninstalling memmaid (it's 900k - I can't keep that around ) it just left an empty folder called "Handyswitch actions" that I'm just going to manually delete. Thanks for the help. I was this close to deciding between keeping Skyfire and outlook

Sorry, during install of MemMaid you could of unchecked the handyswitcher and whatever extras you didn't need and they wouldn't have installed. Glad to see you has some success though.

You can't install MS VC to storage card and have it work correctly unfortunatly.
I've had same issue whilst installing MSVC to storage card and had tp install it to phone. I also had same problem trying to uninstall it. Luckily I wanted to upgrad my ROM which solved the problem
As I've been using my phone I learned there's a new glitch - if I use autocomplete to fill in text or complete an email address, etc it crashes my phone (I think pasting text does too). This didn't happen a day ago so I think there's a connection to the uninstallation of VC. I've reset it 5 times and it's always the same result. The screen becomes nonresponsive, switching to landscape mode takes about 45 seconds and doesn't solve anything and both the onscreen keyboard (Happy Tapping) and the hard keyboard fail to function. If I wait it out I can get the start menu to drop down and get to the Today screen but navigation is still brutally slow there and the email sits. I Use o2plus and it shows apps are running but doesn't state them (it's pOutlook that is frozen). Any ideas? I wish PPC had 'last good state' like Windows... thanks again
I have VC on my memory card and have no problem... Dont know why you have though.

Hi there,
I just got myself the Touch Pro2, having been a user of the Touch Diamond for somewhile and enjoyed that phone. However, I have been having some challenges with the TouchPro 2 and questions and am hoping that someone here could help
1. The task manager at the top right corner. This usually lists the programs that are running. However, with the TP2, I noticed that once Opera is loaded, it does not show up there but is still running. So if I want to close Opera, I am not sure how to as previously, I just needed to click on the "x" next to it. The other program that is behaving in the same manner is ActiveSync. It does not show up there either. Has anyone have the same issue?
2. When I try to add contacts to the people tab, it will bring up the list of contacts with a alphabetical index on the right side. However, when I click on any of the alphabets, say "D", it does not bring me to my contacts starting with "D" but rather to somewhere in the middle of "C". This goes the same for any alphabets. Does anyone have the same prob?
Thanks!
For your first question
Some apps aren't meant to be closed like the phone app or activesync. They always run in the background. As for Opera, I don't know, but maybe it's neccesary for the push internet thingy to work?

I could close the activesync in my diamond previously but not in TP2.
Hmm.... push internet, it could be a reason but still find it odd that it's not listed as an item on the task manager.
