good afternoon

I am trying to set up com7 to be outbound port, however I cannot for the life of me find the menu on my c500.

I have been into bluetooth and then com ports, but it only lets me set up incoming port (com6)

I am having a really bad week tech wise so if someone could lend a helping hand that would be amazing!

thanks
Dave

Thanks Stu.

Sounded ideal, but after looking at their site and some of the feedback on their discussion board it sounds like a pretty dodgy piece of software - problems restoring and backing up data, some stuff such as SMSs not backed up properly...

I was looking at upgrading to a C600 but as Sprite doesn't yet work with more recent phones I remain unconvinced.

What I find irritating is that my Psion 5mx that is over 6 years old backs up and restores perfectly, copying everything - all settings, data, programs, messages - off without problem. Easily restorable too - and all this out of the box! Is it really that difficult to do on these new phones??

Do these tv phones pic up terrestrial/freeview (Digital) tv or the old analog tv?

Complete Instructions On How To Install Skype On The T-Mobile SDA

1. Download Skype for the PPC (www.skype.com). You will need to save the .CAB file to your desktop. Then extract it with winzip.

2. You then need to rename the files as I have below. You don’t do anything with any of the other files that get extracted.

000Boing.002 -> Boing.wav
000Skype.001 -> Skype.exe
SKYPED~1.003 -> SkypeDialer.dll

3. Since the usability of Skype is based on the speed of your processor you will need to over clock the processor. I have tested this program and made phone calls with and without over clocking the SDA. With no over clocking there is a 3 second lag in voice from SDA to PC, and about 20 seconds from SDA to Landline. When I over clocked the processor to 240mhz there was no delay from SDA to PC, and about 1 second from SDA to Landline.

Download the over clock program here http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9181 (you must register to be able to see the program…takes 2 seconds)

4. Now put all 4 files (including the over clocking program) in Windows directory of the phone either copying them from your memory card to that directory or by the same instructions as below for the shortcut..

5. Now since I never use T-Zones I edited that shortcut to launch Skype by doing this:

Open a new notepad file. Paste this in the file 19#WindowsSkype.exe (there should be forward slashes between the # and the W and between the s and S. This forum doesn't allow that character... sorry ..=)

Save the file as Short_AP1.lnk (make sure you choose all files or it will save it as a text.)

6. Create a new folder on your desktop called “Windows”

7. Put the shortcut file in that folder.

8. Now sync your SDA. Open up the file explorer in active sync. Drag the Windows folder you created onto “My Windows Based Mobile Device”. It will ask you if you want to replace all the files in that folder. You will choose yes. Then you will chose overwrite. If it doesn’t ask you to overwrite the file, then you didn’t save the .lnk file correctly,

9. Now you will have to download Pocket Controller Pro. You will need this because you have to actually tap the sign in button and you don’t have a touch screen on your SDA.

10. Now download Skype on your PC. You will need to create a login name and etc. Now since Skye wasn’t made for a non-touch screen PDA, you will need to add contacts for landline numbers so you will be able to call them from your phone. YOU MUST PUT A “+” IN FROMT OF THE AREA CODE OR COUNTY CODE. (+14055551212) Otherwise you can’t dial on the SDA using the Skype dialer. You can only call your “contacts” I only use Skype to call a landline number in South Africa, so it didn’t bother me.

10.Just install it the controller above and run it after you registered with Skype. Also go ahead and run the over clocking program and over clock your processor to 240 MHz (No higher!)

11. After you have your WIFI connection established, hit your T-Zones button and launch Skype. It will ask you to log in. This is where you will need to use the Controller above to do so. Once you do this once you can check the box that says automatically log me in. Then you will never need to do this again.
12. Now use the dpad joystick to select your contact and press down… this will dial them. Then press down again to hang up..

Enjoy!

hi man!
Trying your program but it says "this program is from unknown" and so on. the thing is that i can´t press the yes button to accept this. how do I do??

Hi guys,

Strange one here...all of a sudden the numbers on the menus on my SPV C600  have dissapeared.

I used to be able to access the options on a list by pressing the number on the key pad (1 Delete; 2 Reply; 3 Folders; 4 Switch Accounts etc...)

This has now gone and I have to scroll up and down. I loved the numerical shortcuts and don't know whats happened that I've lost them. I can find no other way to get them back.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Fybo

this isnt working for me.. when i run lokiwiz and press u and enter the program just closes.. any ideas what im doing wrong??

Ok Updated my Spv C600 to the new rom AKU2 and the old method of app unlocking does not work anymore ie the registry hack 1-40 or SDA Unlocker And oranges web site wont work either so irm sure theres alot ov you guys out there that are really pissed about this.So what are we going to do about this Hmm well we need to find another way around this so i call all the brain boxes and computer nerds out there in the world and i SHOUT OUT LOUD and say HACK THIS..... there has to be another soulotion to this so please if anyone out there reads this post and knows of a way or has a idea help us please so we can run our wounderfull apps again.Hope to see this post full of ideas soon lets just see how many brain boxes there are out there and what soulotions we come up with to the adressed problem above may the best man prevail..................

Thanks to some invaluable efforts from itsme, and anonymous, our SPV C500 unlocking tool is now in alpha

There are, however, some limitations, which we are working to resolve:

• Your phone must be an Orange C500. Do NOT run this on an AudioVox phone or ROM. Ignoring this may result in your phone becomming unusable till we add AudioVox compatibility.
  
• Your phone must be application unlocked, and have our cert.cab file installed. This file should be included with the SPV-Services package. We realise this is a big limitation, again it's something we are working around.

Additionally, SPV-Developers or it's admins will not be held responsible for any problems caused by this tool. However, all changes made are 100% reversible, and we will do are best to help should anything unexpected happen.

To try this service, you will need to download the SPV-Services Client. The file cert.cab needs to be copied to your phone and executed. After this, run the SPV-Services.exe, and have fun

If you try it, please post your feedback.

Reading the threads here I hear that all O2 EXEC are UNLOCKED.  Is that TRUE? can someone confirm that to me thanks, just wanted to know

Tmobile will unlock it for you for £15.00

I know Florin personally, and have had a number of devices unlocked by him, and he is straight-up honest (and somewhat clever) guy...

P

Hmmm. I know of Buzz_Lightyear and certainly respect his abilities BUT...

...www.imei-check.com states they offer unlocking for MDA Pro (both sim and CID).
