Just saw this software on smartphonethoughts....

Downloaded and used it, its really working very well...

BEAWARE .... an unlimited data plan is highly recommended to use this.

Yes, it's way cool, been playing w/ it quite a bit...but yea, data hog...and doing it over GPRS is painful...much nicer over a BT activesync session w/ passthru...but if you are gonna do that, might as well go to the PC or laptop screen and be able to see more.

Probably because I installed it to card (so used to doing that...). I receive an error message telling me to quit and restart. Wash, rinse, repeat. I can't even uninstall it using the Instal/Remove programs under Tools in AS. Guess I'm stuck with it...

Working well for me.

I can't figure out how to install this...going in through ActiveSync doesn't allow me to double click and install, which is the direction given on the site.

Any suggestions?

copy the cab to the phone, using activesync, then using the file manager on the phone, nagivate to where you stored it and select the cab file, should install fine...i don't think there is an exe version that can be installed from the PC...

if you can't uninstall from the PC, try removing it from the phone...then, if successful, sometime when the phone is not connected to the pc, try removing it from the PC in add/remove programs in control panel...just something to try...

I'll prob have to manually search for the program on the phone as the "Remove Programs" section under settings doesn't show any programs (!). And I was starting to really like this Voq phone...

Thanks Chris. Found out that I couldn't see it in "tree" mode, I had to switch file manager to "list" mode.



Posted by: hylton

Yep, tree mode will get you every time...I do that all the time...where is my $%$@#$#% file...hehe...I wish there was a feature to just turn that off (tree mode) all-together...maybe a registry hack, but i haven't found it yet.
