    HTC Hermes SIM unlock FREE!

    A while ago I told you about the SIM Unlocking service from IMEI-Check. Now it would appear that the unclock service is being provided free on this site: pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/

    It can be used in all HTC Hermes devices, this includes the following: HTC TyTN / O2 XDA trion / T-Mobile MDA Vario II / Vodafone 1605 VPA Compact III / Orange SPV M3100 / Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro / hTc Z / Qtek 9600 / iMate JasJam / Cingular 8525 / Swissom XPA v1605 / SoftBank X01HT / UTStarcom 6800 / Vodafone PDA 1605

    I haven’t tried it out yet, it’s worth a try but as with all these things it’s at your own risk!

    Thanks to our friend Matt for the heads up!

    VITO ScreenCapture Review

    Lately Tracy and I have been reviewing more PocketPC and Smartphone software and we needed a way to capture screen shots to illustrate our reviews.

    In the past we used the screen capture tool that’s part of Microsoft’s power toys, however, this tool doesn’t work with WM5 devices. We needed to find something else.

    I had a good look around the web and asked other people what they like to use to capture screen shots from their PocketPC. There are quite a few products out there that can do the job but many of them are rather expensive.

    VITO ScreenCapture

    I started having a look though the products available from our ClickApps Store when I came across VITO ScreenCapture.

    VITO is a name that I knew and I had seen their products before but I had no idea that they did a Screen Capture application. So I decided to give it a shot and download the trial.

    Installation could not be easier, you simply run the Executable on your desktop PC and it’s all done for you. There isn’t anything to install on your PocketPC or Smartphone, it’s all done from the desktop. Just connect your device via active sync and start the ScreenCapture application.

    ScreenCapture Window

    You are presented with a very simple window which gives you three buttons. ‘Capture Screen’, ‘Copy to Clipboard’ and ‘Save to File’. It’s dead easy to use. You press the capture button, you see a screenshot from your mobile device and then you can either save the screen as a file or copy to clipboard. That’s all there is to it!

    Having played around with this for quite a while I haven’t found anything that it wont capture. It works equally well on PocketPC or Smartphone. What’s more the tool costs less than £5!

    Description :
    VITO ScreenCapture is a small utility to make screenshots of your Pocket PC or Smartphone from a desktop PC. With VITO Screen Capture it’s a matter of two clicks. VITO Screen Capture automatically detects your Pocket PC or Smartphone when you connect it to your desktop PC and start ActiveSync. Now you can capture the screen image on your Pocket PC. It is immediately displayed on the desktop PC, you can save it as a bitmap image file or copy it to the clipboard.

    Compatibility:

  • Pocket PC Windows Mobile 5.0
  • Pocket PC VGA resolution (fullscreen 640×480)
  • Pocket PC Square VGA resolution (480×480)
  • Pocket PC Square QVGA resolution (240×240)
  • Pocket PC QVGA resolution (320×240)
  • Pocket PC 3D Accelerator (Axim x50v/x51v)
  • Smartphone Windows Mobile 5.0
  • Smartphone Standard resolution (176×220)
  • Smartphone Smartphone 2003 SE
  • Smartphone Smartphone 2003
  • Smartphone QVGA resolution (windowed at 176×220)
  • Smartphone QVGA resolution (fullscreen 240×320)

    • For under a fiver it’s well worth the money, everyone should have this app in their arsenal! Go and buy a copy now!

    HTC P3300 Review

    Paul at MoDaCo has been a busy boy this week and has just released his review of the HTC P3300.

    HTC P3300 Front

    HTC P3300 Specification:

  • Windows Mobile 5 for Pocket PC AKU 3
  • Quad Band GPRS / EDGE
  • FM Radio
  • TI OMAP 850 @ 200MHz
  • 128MB ROM
  • 64MB RAM
  • 2.8″ QVGA 65K colour screen
  • microSD expansion underneath battery
  • 2.0MP camera
  • miniUSB connector for sync / charge / headphones
  • 1200mAh battery
  • up to 3.5 – 5 hrs talktime
  • up to 150-200 hour standby
  • 58mm x 108mm x 16.3mm
  • 127g

    • This is one of the first HTC Artemis reviews that we have seen. It would appear that Paul isn’t a fan of the device.

    “Your experience with the P3300 will almost certainly hinge on how you feel about the RollR. I would find it very hard to recommend the purchase of a P3300 without trying it first, particularly for those who are already Pocket PC power users, who may find it just holds them up too much.”

    I would have to agree with Paul’s comments. Tracy and I tried the HTC P3300 out for a while last week and although we initially liked playing with the RollR it soon bacame more annoying than useful!

    Sim Unlock Orange C700/HTC MTeoR

    I while ago I used IMEI Check to have my Orange M3100 Sim Unlocked so that Tracy could use it with her T-Mobile SIM.

    Well Florin at IMEI Check has come up trumps again and is now able to provide SIM unlocking for the HTC MTeoR and Orange M700 (Although I did think the HTC Branded devices were unclocked anyway!?). The service costs £20.

    I really do recommend IMEI Check, the service is really fast and efficient. Have a look on their website to see what they have to offer.

    Reassign Pocket PC soft keys

    If you are anything like me, there are a few soft keys on your Pocket PC mobile device that you just don’t use. Personally I don’t use the contacts or the voice dial buttons on my HTC TyTN. In fact I find the voice dial button really annoying as I seem to keep pressing it by mistake.

    Our friend Fabien got in touch to let me know that he had come across a piece of software that allows you to modify what each soft key does without having to get your hands dirty and play around with the registry. Furthermore Fabien has written an extensive tutorial on how to change the key settings.

    The piece of software required to make these changes, ‘WM5NewMenu’, also has some other useful features.

    “WM5NewMenu” is a configurable application launcher for Windows Mobile 5 with several preconfigured actions to create new items for your Today soft keys such as a SMS, MMS, Word documents, Notes, etc.

    Basic features WM5NewMenu version 2.02:

  • Launching by selectable Today soft key
  • Launching by any hardware button (new)
  • Simple configuration – Support for original “New” items
  • Cascading menus, up to 6 levels (new)
  • Up to 31 items in one level (new)
  • Separators (new)
  • Quick actions (Call, SMS) (new)
  • Configurable positioning (new)
  • Landscape support

    • Check out the full tutorial on Dafabmobiles.
