Taget the different Device

Hi,

I developed an application for Pocket Pc2003. I want to target to Treo700WX. But Generally I get only 5 devices in the list (in "Deploy" window) when I use F5 to deploy and debug. Treo700WX is already added to All platforms menu(Tools-->Options-->devices--> All platforms). Can anyone tell me how to target the Treo700WX or any other device.

Is there any way to find whether my Pocket PC is phone edition or not. because I want to add Vibration, LED, and SMS notification which works on only phone edition.

Thanks in Advance,

Illya Tumanov,

I think you can guide me as you have given suggestion in my previous problems. As I told you earlier I could target my application to Treo 700WX device. Almost it is working in the same way. but in some areas I observed the differences.

1) My application is running very very slower in Treo 700WX emulator than it was running in Pocket Pc 2003 emulator. Can you suggest any way to speed up my application.
2) When I add some text to WebBrowser It shows one progress bar( shows connecting ) and then adds text. after adding the text webbrowser looks like it is getting refreshed continuosly even though i dint use. The same worked properly in Pocket PC 2003 Emulator with out this problems.

I hope you can guide me.

Thanks in Advance

Illya Tumanov,

Thank you very much for your kind response.

I have started my project with Pocket PC 2003 and it is almost above to complete. Actually I am thinking to redesign all the forms for Treo 700. Can you tell me If there is any way to directly updgrade my project to Win CE. Actually here When I start project with WinCE only I can see Treo700 in targeting devices list. That is why I want to upgrage my present application to WinCE. I hope you will help me in this matter.

Thanks in advance

Hi Vijay,

Thank You. I got the solution any way. Treo 700WX is with Windows Mobile OS.

I have already developed an application for Pocket PC 2003. I want to upgrade it to Windows CE. Can you please guide me how to use the same application for WINCE.

Thanks in Advance,

Vijay,

Thank you very much for your kind reply. Treo700wx is the emulator which I have downloaded from this link:
pluggedin.palmone.com
I want to target my existing application to this device. This is already added to "Device Emulator Manager" which is in tools.
but I am unable to target the different device. In the deploy device list We can find only 5 (Pocket PC Device, Pocket PC2003 Emulator, ......................................).

I am very thankful If you can help me.

Thanks in Advance

Malleswar,

Can you please explain what you mean by "Treo700WX is already added to All platforms menu"

The emulator emulates only the ARM based Samsung SMDK2410 board. If your application runs on the emulator, it will almost surely run on other real devices.

But you cannot add any extra devices to the emulator.

And Malleswar, please post a question only once. It helps us answer it better and faster.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the Microsoft Device Emulator currently only supports Windows CE and Windows Mobile Operating Systems.

Please check with Palm to see if they have an emulator on which you can run your application.

Treo 700 is just a Windows Mobile 5.0 PPC Phone Edition device with 240x240 screen.

So create WM 5.0 PPC project and change form factor (in form’s properties) to "Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Phone Square" and you should be all set.

To find our if your device is a phone or not, simply call something which is available on phone only (e.g. SmsClose() in SMS.dll), add try/catch block around your call.

If it failed - your device is not a phone.
