Guest bennish Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Sorry if I'm just being ignorant... I can't seem to find a version of Activesync Remote Display that works wth WM5/AS4 - is there one, or a free equivalent? looked on MS site but unless I completely missed it couldn't find anything there.

Guest Pondrew Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I haven't got a WM5 device to try it on but the latest version of Remote Display released by Microsoft is included in Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pondrew Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Hmmm. Lets hope it doesn't take too long then. Expect Activesync 4 will be on the Microsoft site for download BEFORE they update their power tools. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bennish Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I noticed that MitchellO had a rather good screen cap of his k-jam... unless he was using a commercial app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest M@rkC Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 I noticed that MitchellO had a rather good screen cap of his k-jam... unless he was using a commercial app. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :D/ - it works!!!! In the directory you installed the Mobile Developer Power Toys, find the "Activesync Remote Display" directory and RTFM :shock: ...... Basically, all you need to do is copy the two files in "C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys\ActiveSync_Remote_Display\devices\wce400\armv4t" to the \WINDOWS directory on your WM5.0 device using ActiveSync. When you fire up the shortcut for ActiveSync Remote Display on your PC, it bitches that "The OS or CPU of this device is unknown to this application" - just click OK and your WM5.0 display will appear in the main window!!!! The first time that you start and stop the remote display, your phone/device will give you the "This program is from an unknown publisher...." message, so just say Yes and it won't ask you again. The only caveat is that you seem to get the remote display icon (windows logo in a circle) in the notification area (where the battery and screen rotation icons are) one position to the left each time you stop and start the remote display. No big deal, but can look a bit weird after you've stopped/started about ten times :?: Give it a go - the quality of the display on the PC is as crap as ever (and zooming it only makes it worse), but it's still nice to be able to compose a message reply on a full size keyboard from time to time :) Cheers, Mark.

Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Nice work - shame it doesnt like the VGA screen on my Jasjar though! (KJAM works fine :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest w411y Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Didn't realise you could type messages using the PC keyboard and Remote Display! I want to be able to click start and that but ticking or not ticking "Send all mouse clicks" doesnt seem to change anythin :) Is there any keyboard shortcuts or a way i can use the mouse?

Guest w411y Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 OOh just found out :) F1 = Left Soft Key F2 = Right Soft Key F3 = Green Button F4 = Red Button F6 = Volume Up F7 = Volume Down F = # Windows Button/Start Button = Home (Although it brings up start menu on pc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Well the Start button on my keyboard clicks start on my KJAM - and brings my PC start menu up too unfortunately! F1 - Left softkey F2 - Right softkey F3 - Phone dialer F6 - Volumeup F7 - Volumedown F8 - * F9 - # ` - Standby Mouse commands work fine for me btw... Edit - beat me to it Wally!

Guest w411y Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Edit - beat me to it Wally! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> hehe :) Thanks anyway :D I'm guessing mouse clicks only work for PPC's then? Mouse clicks emulating the touch screen? I'm using C550 you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest puckster Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 beauuuutiful. thanks guys!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bennish, i noticed you have remapped the left softkey as start menu. You currently have the exact setup i want (Left - Start ; Right - Messaging), but i havent found a solution to get start menu to work via a soft key. I have had a look through all the major ppc forums but havent found anyone else that has done it. Could you let me know how you did this? Is this an exe or shortcut you are pointing to in the registry or have you used a software button mapper etc? Thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 You can do it with SPB PocketPlus i believe. On my KJAM i have the top two hardware keys bound to Start (the messages button) and Close/OK (the IE button), which allows for almost stylus-free use when in portrait mode :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bennish Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 actually i cheat. It opens up tillansoft smallmenu, a sort of start replacement (it's a cascading one, and i just point to the exe.) How do you do it in spb pocketplus, monolithix? Yea, i tried the same thing with those top 2 mono, but found it annoying to have to shift my hand all the time. I currently have the top left side as (microsoft) start, and top right side as ok/close. I rarely use the top 2. How i wish they were below the screen where 'imate' and 'kjam' are written... :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with SPB PocketPlus it still only allows you to map extra functions to the hardware buttons, it just enables more programs / apps to be used.

Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 Hmm i hadn't actually looked properly into the button map options in Pocket+ - sorry to have gotten your hopes up! The mod is a reg hack, not sure what though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest markdotpeters5 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 ta for the heads up. works nicely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WarezAppz Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 ;)/ - it works!!!! The only caveat is that you seem to get the remote display icon (windows logo in a circle) in the notification area (where the battery and screen rotation icons are) one position to the left each time you stop and start the remote display. No big deal, but can look a bit weird after you've stopped/started about ten times :?: Cheers, Mark. Actually, FYI, the icon in the notification area is a menu for the application (Mobile device side) and lets you change update/refresh rate; connect from the device to the PC; and exit the application. You might want to use it as if you don't (even Microsoft states in the readme file) that the process (cerdisp2.exe) will continue to run. We all know that it is not wise to let a process take up resources (run) when it is not needed. Another side-note is that: This isn't limited to an ActiveSync connection in order to be able to use it. I have successfully connected using bluetooth (via ActiveSync) and also by connecting via my Wireless Router (not using ActiveSync {the key here is to initiate the connection via the device not the PC. Unless you are using a host proxy on your device to resolve names, use the IP address of the PC - and have the Remote Display app running on the PC before initiating the connection}). :) Pocket Hosts can be found HERE.

I want to thank you for finding out how to use this tool. I have been looking for someting like this ever since I gave my Razor V3 to my wife. I was missing the ability to send a message through the phone while connected to the computer. If you figure out how to use the other PowerToys on the HTC Wizard, please let me know. :D Thank you-ever so much, :( Dr. Cook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
