[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Feel free to suggest additions! ;)

Any SMS scheduler that wroks on Kaiser? Free or commercial.

I heard about RJV SMS Scheduler but that's good?

[Guest jjimenezjj]

Wow, looks juicy!! ;)

Quick question though, how do install .cab(s)? With my kaiser (once I get it), do I just come to this forum and click on the files? Im guessing I will be manually placing these files to important folders on my device?

Thanks in advance!

[Guest kathryncheng]

hello Paul,

How about the GPS picture tagging software or tweak from the camera taken from TYTN 2 please please.....

thanks,

dennis

[Guest jjimenezjj]

Beautiful :D ... thanks Paul.

[Guest Webreaper]

Smartskey? (or is it incompatible/unnecessary for WM6?).

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

For what purpose?

P

[Guest Re-D]

For what purpose?

Paul, any other apps for T9? Because what you suggested doesn't work on tytn II.

[Guest jjimenezjj]

Paul, the "music" tab that you have of your Kaiser is really neat. Is there a way to put a "news" tab for a RSS Reader?

Weather and news right on the homepage would make life eaiser! All I would need then is for the Kaiser to brew me fresh cup of coffee too... :wub:

John J ;)

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Not currently, no ;)

P

[Guest Webreaper]

For what purpose?

Smartskey? For the purpose of one-handed usage. I couldn't live with my XDA Mini without smartskey - being able to close apps, access the start menu and scroll within apps using one hand is great. But I've not played with WM6 so don't know whether it's relevant or if MS have fixed it so you can actually use the device one-handed.

PocketMusic free: http://www.pocketmind.com/pocketmusic.htm (free version link at top right)

[Guest just.BE]

Eye On Thief is an app i like

when a new sim is placed it Will send a SMS whit contact to the number of you choice

[Guest kathryncheng]

any geotagging software suggestion for p4550?

[Guest Webreaper]

Oh, this one's useful too, to allow you to list your contacts as First, Last (i.e., "John Smith", rather than "Smith, John").

[Guest kapot]

How about Adobe Flash? ;)

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flash/d.../fp7_ppc_en.cab

Does it really work?

[Guest kapot]

Is there any good tool to enable "switching between applications" that can be mapped to a hardware button?

Somekind like the "ALT-TAB" function in Windows desktop.

Spb Pocket Plus has it. It is really nice, when you switch app, it display the icon (so, it is not like a listbox gui).

But yeah, I dont want to install Pocket Plus ;)

i can't find the remote desktop client in the kaiser and the help is mentioned it but in programs i cannot find it. Any idea because it's important for me.

WM6_RDP_Finster.cab

thanks! Worx and Rox ;)

[Guest gatogringo]

Great list, thanks.

Can someone add a link to the cab file of skype (which version is it, does it work properly)? Since the Tytn II is not listed as part of the HTC devices, I tend to turn in circles trying to locate the correct file.

Vito ButtonMapper is a good extension of the standard tool and includes a task switcher similar to that in PocketPlus.

This one should work: Skype
