HTCEmu 0.9 Not Working on Omnia 2 GT-I8000

[Guest kamyers1]

Hi Folks,

I already posted a very similar message as a reply to a thread on a board for a different model, and didn't realize my mistake until it was too late. So, please forgive my newbie errors. Anyway, here's the deal...

Found a video online of someone running the Seismo accelerometer demo app on a Samsung Omnia 2 GT-I8000. Since that is the same model as mine, figured that I should be able to accomplish the same result. So, I downloaded the following files:

NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab from http://www.4shared.com/file/56393770/a9f58...35wmarmv4i.html

SeismoCAB.CAB from http://www.freewareppc.com/misc/seismo.shtml

HTCEmuPanel.cpl from http://www.samsung-omnia.org/index.php?act...4.0;attach=7162 (appears to be version 0.9)

(later I tried using similar files obtained from other sources with the same results)

Next, I installed the .NET CF and Seismo application, copied the htcemu file to the Windows folder on my device. Then I powered it off and back on. After that I found and started the htcemu control panel item in Start -> Settings -> Advanced Settings tab -> Installed Items. I selected the optical joystick option and clicked the button to have the two dlls created. Next I exited the control panel applet, and powered my device off and back on again. Then I went back into the htcemu control panel applet and tried calibrating the accelerometer. Hmmm, no response. Next I tried running the Seismo application. Not picking up any vibrations there either. Line perfectly flat. Siesmo app also crashed on exit.

Bottom line, no joy. :-( But based on the video that I saw, I'm pretty convinced that it *can* be done. Is there a newer version of htcemu out there somewhere that I need to be using with the Omnia 2? I've looked through numerous other threads both on this forum and elsewhere, and can't figure out where I am going wrong... :-(

Thanks,

Ok, finally got this to work as follows: After installing htcemu as previously described, overwrote HTCSensorSDK.dll in the Windows folder of my device using the version from here: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=attach...st&id=39429

Now my only problem is that if I use the Settings applet to unstall the htcemu dlls and then later to reinstall them, it will reinstall the *wrong* version of HTCSensorSDK.dll, and I'll have to manually copy over the correct version again. Does anyone know if there is an updated version of HTCEmuPanel.cpl that corrects this problem???

Thanks,
