Hi,
I recently got an xda IIs, I have managed to connect to my broadband connection via my cradle - however I am now trying to set up a wlan connection to transfer my files over as I left my cradle and charger at my other house, doh!!!
I can get a connection however - for the life of me - I don't know how to transfer files!!?!?!! Now that I have a connection - should my pocket pc not show up in My Network Places? I cant find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I also have a second question, I am aware that the onboard memory is volatile - but can someone clarify if the storage memory on the phone (not sd card) is non-volatile or not.
Many thanks,
LCMGxs
Hi
Windows Mobile does not have a network client built in. From what I can gather, it does support SMB, but has no front end. Suggest you get a copy of pocketlan which is a front end.

Other than that you'll have to use activesync (this will work over wifi once you have used it once over USB).

cheers mate.
Hi all
With resco explorer you can map a networtk drive and and the transfer files as normal..

or you could try this its free
Bizzdev netuse integrates with the standard files manager and works well enough for me. Its freeware to!

I have a c500 which is set to discoverable and the Bluey sees it but if when using resco file explorer u select a file to send the follwoing prompt appears on the angel "The connection to the peer bluetooth device failed"
Its drivin me bonkers.

Again the spv500 shows as selectable but this is the follwoing prompt "service discovery was unsuccsessful. please make sure the remote device is turned on (it is!!) Bluetooth is enabled (it is!!)and the device is discoverable (again it is!!!)
Aaaaargh

I need to work to my mobile phone by my pda in bluetooth connection, working with OBEX file transfer. Every times that i connect to my phone looking file, copying or deleting file, my mobile phone must give confirmation (allow "Pocket pc" to connect?)... It's very boring, is there a program that remove protection, make possibile to connect to other device without giving every times confirmation?
Many thanks to all answer me,

I am trying to connect to a radio station (KKYN.net) that is Abacast enabled. I am using a my Alltel PPC 6800 with WM6 and the WMPv10 for Pocket PC. The IE on my device will not let me open the link.
The link is mms://wm-live.abacast.com/kkyn-kkyn-20 (as far as I can tell)
I manuallt enter the link in IE and tcpmp will not support it.
gsplayer will not play the url.
Maually entering the link WMPv10 for Pocket PC opens the site but there is no sound. Can anyone help?
Has anyone successfully connected their WM6.1 HTC S620 to Ubuntu?

For simple file transfer could you use WM5torage and it gets recognized as a flash???
WM5torage is your best bet for file transfer. Multisync with the SynCE plugin are supposed to work for contacts and calendar, but the gods would have to smile on you, the starts be aligned, and you'd have to hold your mouth just right to get it working.
Almost forgot....obex in ubuntu (but not kubuntu) works with the Dash over bluetooth. In kubuntu, I think it's a one-way trip, but I can't remember which (the PC or the phone) that can't receive.
Not to hijack this thread but has anyone had any luck getting the dash to work with the internet sharing with Ubuntu via usb. I was never able to get this to work unless I am having one of my dense moments. My only source of internet at home right now is the dash. (Perhaps there is a driver I can download through another computer with an internet connection and save to a flash drive). I've been meaning to ask this question a couple of weeks ago but have since been busy and forgot. I figured I would ask here first before hitting up the Ubuntu forums.
I don't remember the results I got while playing with it, but as soon as you connect the Dash to Ubuntu via usb, it detects it as another network device. As far as the actual "tunnel" you need to set up to get tcp/ip over the link was always outside my realm of interest, so I never really messed with it.
to transfer file, i use bluetooth and ftp, no wm5storage
bluetooth is the best for ease use! works perfect in ubuntu 8.04. just right click file and send by bluetooth to phone.
ftp its good for complex transfer (multiple files, folders, etc). I use resco explorer on windows mobile and proftpd+gui on ubuntu
WM5torage unmount memory card from windows mobile to mont on usb. Because i use memory card to store emails/webcache, i got some freak errors using wm5storage. (like moving memory card to "\memory card 2" folder)
i do not sync anything (email, contacts, notes or whatever).. but i do backups (from time to time) using ppcpimbackup (not a smartphone app but works [bugy gui] )
I need test ogg sync or something to sync with my google account. did you try something like?
Thanks!
Thanks everyone. WM5storage works a treat over a USB connection.
Tried connecting over bluetooth but I got an OBEX error. Will take a longer look at it when I get chance.
hi @all,
i use WM5Storage for filetransfer with UBUNTU.
Funambol for sync my KAISER over HSDPA works without problems. You only have to install the funambol-programm on your PPC and config the account on myFunambol.
http://my.funambol.com
http://www.funambol.com/
The Evolution-mailclient in UBUNTU can be synced with myFunambol too. you need to install this app:
https://launchpad.net/genesis-sync
If you flash your PPC 2x a week like me, funambol is the best, because it configures by installing automaticaly the mailaccount on the device. only need to put in username and password
Thanks Acidd.
The pointer to funambol is a useful workaround for the 6.1 SMTP problem.
Where can i get a nice Wm5torage version?
The stuff i have does not want to work on my WM6 Samsung i600, i get some error?
if you dont get a connection with wm5storage, you need to check the two points in the menu-->troubleshooting --> "disable concurrency" and "disable RNDIS on activate".
i dont know where i downloaded my version of wm5storage but its V1.8.
