• Foxtrot_Xray How to remove or kill default phone application (cprog.exe) from WM2003 SE Phone

  Hi guys! I have an application, which phone functionality for WM2003 SE Phone (T-mobile MDA III). The default phone app. of PPC - cprog.exe is very "insolent" and in some cases shows differnet UI elements! If I kill its process, after some seconds Services.exe starts it again! My question is: Is possible to remove or kill cprog.exe Regards I could not agree more...   First of all, that probably won't work on newer WM 5.0 devices due to signing issues. You will loose standard phone application and your own might not work as it's not signed properly (RIL is privileged API after all). Or phone might simply refuse to overwrite the phone application in ROM. What you going to do after your stockpil ...Show All

• Markus Ringl hPrevInstance Error Cxx0030

  I hope someone can help me with this problem. I am converting an application from eVC++ to Visual Studio 2005 C++. I was able to fix all the linking errors and was able to build the solution. When I try to deploy the application either to the emulator or an actual device the application starts for a second then crashes. It breaks at afxWinMain(), stating that hPrevInstance is "unable to evaluate expression." Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. The error code that you have mentioned comes when debugger could not obtain the value of the expression. Also, hPrevInstance is always passed as NULL under Win32 world and is not used. Also, I have tried to convert a working default eVC++ application to VS 2005 app ...Show All

• srividyaramesha Enabling num Lock programatically

  I am writing a program for a PocketPC that has a built-in keyboard using eVC, and I was wondering if there was a way to activate the number/symbol lock key programatically As it is, the user has to push the orange key on the keyboard twice to enable the locking feature, I would prefer to be able to enable it in my program so all the user has to do is type the numbers.

• dreameR.78 Upgrading from Beta 2 of VS 2005 to RC / RTM Version - What device device developers should know

  We were looking at some scenarios where as a device developer you had VS 2005 Beta 2 on your machines. Then you decided to un-install Beta 2 and install RC candiate. There are a few things you should be aware of. 1. If you had installed the DMA Transport Update , please make sure remove that before you un-install anything else to clean your machine. We are also in the process of adding removal of this Patch to the un-install tool that VS Setup team has been working on. 2. You would also need to clear your old data store and saved state. Here are some symptoms of having older files on your machine. 1. Error message as soon as the Device Emulator starts Failed to open the VPC Network Driver.

• Snickel65 Site indexing on MSN Search?

  One week before, I set up a new website, which is not indexed by msn search. I followed Site Owner Help and submit the url. I found out that the website hasn't been indexed so far.

• sax0n Route line not displayed in IE

  Hi all, Has anyone experienced a route highlight line not being displayed on a map under IE, although all the route points are correctly displayed Works fine in FF (which is annoying!!!) Thanks, Gerry Found the problem! You have to include the META element in the header that declares the utf-8 charset: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> That nifty line is REQUIRED for rendering lines. Add that, and you should be all set. Cheers, Caleb Federico, you can take a look at http://2006.bengeotigers.org.uk/ c=map . Never seen this yet in either 6 or 7 IE ...Show All

• Tommix99 Another VS2005 and Smartphone Question

  I posted yesterday about some links or assistance with navigating the treeview control in VS 2005 for Smartphones. Well, I pretty much solved that problem, but that created another issue. I have two modules that are used to dynamically build the appearance of a form before it gets displayed. The form exists in the project and when control is passed to one of the modules that references this form, at the point that the form is referenced in the module, I get an error saying the form does not exist. Initially, I used the With statement to reference the form objects but even if I comment the With/End With statements and reference the form objects explicitly, I still get this error. I tried showing the form before any reference is made t ...Show All

• Khammonh Interface coherence

  I would like to know how can i implement a sidebar control for a smart content with the same style (color & control) of the image editor of wlw! Thanks, Fulvio As an afterthought, if you check out my most recent blog entry at http://scottisafooldev.spaces.live.com you will see what I mean. The side bar for my Feed Reader plugin is just using basic C# components in it. When you add a sidebar component (just a user control in Visual Studio), the sidebar will automatically take on the blue colour plus the other stylings as long as you're using the defaults (I must admit I don't know what it's like if you don't use the defaults). In my Plugin I have mimicked the interface. http://www. ...Show All

• robinjam VS2005 smart device exe doesn't run

  VS2005 smart device exe doesn't run My Pocket PC 2003 app has just one form, and a "hello world" msgbox from a button. I add a Smart Device Cab Project to this project. I the set its Primary output to my test app. This then creates all my dependences. These dlls are all set to exclude = true. Now because my pocket PC has just been hard reset (So I can test the set-up) I set the exclude = False for all the dlls. This I thought would be enough to create me a cab file for my test exe to run. I copy over the built cab file to the Pocket pc and run it from there. The app sits in its correct folder in program files but when clicked just doesn’t show. Any help would be most welcome.

• Tilfried Weissenberger Standalone Emulator V1.0 - 320 x 240 landscape mode

  I read that the Standalone emulator V1.0 ships with the 320 x 240 SP image. But, I didn't find it when I installed it. It just has the SP and SP qvga images. Has anybody installed a 320 x 240 landscape mode SP image on the V 1.0 standalone emulator. Also, has anybody successfully installed a MotoQ image with the V 1.0 standalone emulator. The landscape smartphone images were released after the DeviceEmulator shipped. Please head to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyId=EB580A44-CB40-4BE1-9FF3-E224BF669CD0&displaylang=en to download them. I believe the images install into VS2005.
