A couple of people I recall have had this problem whereby using 1.72 RIM/BB version that they can receive emails but (frustratingly) not be able to send them
I've had an open call with O2 Blackberry support for a couple of weeks & today it was sorted.
These are the instructions
****DO NOT RUN ON THE BES****
1) Remove the device from the cradle and close down desktop manager on the users PC.
2) Remove the user from the BES.
3) Delete the service books (go into Options, then service book) on the BB device. (ALP/CMIME)
4) On the users PC – go into documents and settings, users profile, application data and then delete the RIM folder you see in there.
5) Run dbclean on the users PC as follows:
i) Store dbclean on the root of C
ii) Go into command prompt at the root of C
iii) Type dbclean
6) Then re-add the user to the BES.
7) Re-cradle the BB device, open Outlook and then open BB desktop manager.
8) Re-generate the encryption key.
Worked absolutely fine first time EXCEPT dbclean crashed (caused exception) with a .dll conflict, so it may be that this aspect is not always needed.
Anyhow, end result is my XDA working properly with BB client Hope these instructions help others & if still needed, ring BB support for the file.
IMPORTANT.. CHECK ON THE FIRST PAGE FOR UPDATES.
WARNING : This software has some pretty powerful features so use at your own risk. Importantly, please read the instructions below.
Hi guys.
This is my first software using .NETCF for Windows Mobile Phone. I know this software is peanuts compared to what is out there, but I wish this would be useful to all of you as well. This software helps you track and recover your phone once stolen or lost. Features includes :
1. A Thief or Lost Prevention Software with SMS Auto-Responder and GPS Capability created for Windows Mobile Devices.
2. When you forget your phone and can''t remember where you put it, you can SMS your phone to get the exact location via GPS information if your phone has GPS Capability or approximate location based on Cell Location.
3. You can SMS your phone for other information such as IMSI, IMEI or even remotely reboot your phone etc.
4. This software is also equipped with Thief Prevention system which will automatically SMS your partner phone number if the SIM has been changed against the registered SIM.
5. This software supports registration of Multiple SIM Cards and of Multiple Phone Conctacts as Partners.
6. When your phone has been stolen, it will automatically SMS relevant information such as IMEI, SIM Card Number or IMSI, GPS Location if supported or Cell Location.
7. It is able to also auto-delete Phone Memory Contacts if the phone has been stolen.
8. It is password protected and the password is encrypted with AES-Encryption.
9. Its un-install proof. It requires special procedure to uninstall the protection, so even if you uninstall it, it is still working.
10. It has MortScript support.
You need atleast .NETCF 2.0 for this app to work (which most Windows Mobile has so not to worry).
Note that Cell Location depends on your device. It should be working but the problem is not all devices interfaces with RIL functionality so it may or may not work.
For testing, kindly use Emulation Mode to determine if the application will work on your phone before using these features :
1. Make Phone Unusable
2. Protected Folders
3. Delete Contacts on SIM Change
Emulation mode will run the protection, however on test mode only and not real mode. Therefore, it will just produce a log file to tell you of the action it is supposed to make (however since its a test mode, it does not do that action). If everything is fine, make sure that after testing, to disable the emulation mode.
This was only tested on GSM-based phones. If you have Non-GSM Based phone, and you want to try it out, kindly do and let me know.
This software also can accept SMS Commands from the partner phone so that it can return informations as commanded by you explicitly. Here are the SMS Commands that you can send. Note though that the SMS is only accepted when :
1. The SMS came from a partner phone. (You need to register the phone as a partner phone first).
2. The password is correct. Password is based on the password that you have saved when you configure SmartProtect on your phone. The password is authenticated by the phone once the SMS Command is received.
3. When the SMS Command is correct.
The SMS commands syntax is :
::/[command],[password]
example :
::/getGPSLocation,mypassword
Available Commands are :
getIMEI - Retrieves the IMEI Number
lockMyPhone - makes your phone unusable
enableLockPhone - Enable the Lock Mechanism of your Phone. When your phone is stolen, your phone will become unusable.
rebootPhone - Reboots your phone.
deleteContacts -Deletes your mobile phone contacts. It does not delete the SIM Card Contacts.
unregisterPhone - Unregisters the sender as a partner phone.
disableSecurity - Disables the security mechanism of your phone. This requires restart to take effect.
enableSecurity - Enables the security mechanism of your phone.This requires restart to take effect.
getIMSI - Retrieves the IMSI Number.
alertContacts - alerts your contacts that your phone has been stolen.
getCellLocation - Gets the approximate location based on Cell Tower that your phone has registered to.
getGPSLocation - Retrieves the GPS Coordinates.
exitApp - When you use getGPSLocation command, this application stays in the memory. This command exits the application. However, this applications will still be activated if any of the command is received.
registerPhone - Registers your sender as partner phone number.
listCommands - List the commands available for the Software.
versionInfo - Retrieves the current version of the SmartProtect.
deleteProtectedFolders - Removes the protected folders.
disableEmulation - Disabled the emulation mode.
stopAlert- Stops the alertContacts action.
stopAlert- Stops the alertContacts action.
runPreScript- Runs the pre-action MortScript you've defined.
runPostSCript- Runs the post-action MortScript you've defined.
runAllScripts- Runs all the MortScripts you've defined.
To install the software, unzip the file and run the setup.exe. Make sure you connect your device to the computer for syncing.
Leave your comments if you have suggestions, concerns or reported bugs here[/url]
This has not been tested on Non-GSM based phone.
IMPORTANT :
Please follow the procedure below to update the software :
1. From the partner phone. SMS your phone with the command ::/exitApp,[password]. This is to make sure that the SMS module is not loaded in the memory or update may fail.
2. Uninstall the SmartProtect. (optional)
3. Install the latest SmartProtect. If you didnt uninstall smart protect, it will ask you if you want to uninstall the older SmartProtect. Just click.
4. Once installed, Run SmartProtect to verify that your settings is still there.
5. Once verified, click either exit or save.
6. You will be notified that there's a need to restart the phone. Proceed to restart.
7. To verify its installed, SMS your phone with ::/versionInfo,<password>. This should yield the latest version.
Thanks!!
REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS :
Please follow the procedure below to remove the software :
1. Uninstall SmartProtect 1.1 from your Mobile Phone.
2. From the partner phone. SMS your phone with the command ::/exitApp,[password]. This is to make sure that the SMS module is not loaded in the memory or update may fail.
3. Install SmartProtectRemove.CAB to your mobile phone.
3. Run the SmartProtectRemove
4. Enter the appropriate password you've configured for SmartProtect. Click on Remove SmartProtect.
5. Reboot/soft reset your phone.
6. To verify that it has been removed, SMS any commands to your phone. It should get thru now.
Thanks!!
THOSE WITH SMS MODULE OF SMARTPROTECT NOT WORKING
Kindly run SmartProtect on Emulation Mode and test by sending SMS commands. The emulation mode works for all commands except for disableemulation, versioninfo and listcommands. Then the resulting log, kindly send to me for debugging purposes. Note that in emulation mode, no SMS will be sent out and all actions are recorded on the log file
Version 1.1.5
Updates.
1. Added Reboot messages if required during exit.
2. Added About Message
3. Changed title to SmartProtect on the first screen.
4. Added OpenCellID Link on the SMS.
Version 1.1.6
Updates.
1. Fixed Deletion of Protected Folders. When in-use Deletion module quits the deletion process.
Version 1.1.7
Updates.
1. Performance enhancement.
2. Fix a minor bug. When a number saved on the Partner Number is not on your address book, there's a tendency that the sms command may not get executed.
Version 1.1.8
Updates.
1. Fixed issue for users with non-english ROM where SMS command is not executed
2. Added MortScript support. You can now run Mort Scripts for Pre-process (before the security is invoked when the phone is compromised) and Post-Process (After the security is invoked). Note that you need to ensure that your Pre-process script ends, as the security will only be invoked when it ends. MortScripts will run only when the phone is compromised.
3. Support for AppToDate for automatic updates. (I have not tested because I can't download AppTodate. I will do a test later).
4. Additional commands such as runPreScript, runPostScript, stopAlert
5. Modified the way alertContacts command is executed.

Thanks. Great Tools. Will try it out.
Beta?
Freeware after final release?
I am current using IIWPO both my phone and my other half's phone, which has help my other half recovering HTC Trinity when it was lost.

Yap, Freeware after final release. I'm thinking of adding further features but I'll probably save it on the next version. I'll stabilize this version first.
Btw, unlike IIWPO, this software uses your SIM Card as registration instead of Owner Information. Every SIM Card has a unique number which can be used as a Unique Identifier of the owner of the phone.
Thanks!!
Yep, I know and understand your point.
But most with the feature you have are not freeware.
Thank you very much for the effort.
Trinity has GPS.
Flame does not.
Edit: Need to uninstall IIWPO before trying this?

Hi Smotrs,
That's a good question. The answer is maybe it won't work. I haven't tried the application in Non GSM phone. You may try and let me know if it works. I'm happy to add that feature.
I'm using TAPI to get the Subscriber ID. I'm not sure if this will return the same CDMA subscriber ID. But for GSM, this is equal to the IMSI which is the Sim card Number.
Thanks!!
I discovered a bug but minor. If the phone is in PIN mode for a while and the SmartProtect kicks in, even if the SIM Card is correct, the application will detect a wrong SIM Card (probably because the SIM has not been registered yet??) and therefore sends SMS. Once the PIN has been keyed in, and the SIM has been registered, the protection stops.
The bug does not always happen. Only when the PIN Mode has been idle for a while.
I'll fix this by adding a detection of PIN entry.
Just to let you all know.
Thanks!!
A couple of questions...What do you mean by make the phone unuseable?....Also is their some type of way that you can send a hard reset command to the phone (which also delete's files on the Memory Card as well)?

Hi,
The application will blank the screen and therefore unusable. He can't see what's happening on the screen. He is able to receive a call though and answer it via the Keypad. He can receive SMS but he can't see it.
For your feature request, I have thought of that and will add that as well. My thought is like this. Users are able to choose which folders (Phone Memory and Memory Card) they want to be protected so in the event that the phone is stolen, these folders are either automatically deleted or deleted based on trigger via SMS. I've plans to add this feature on the next version after the final version (unless there's not much bug to be fixed which means I have time to add the feature for the final release). For now, my plan is to stabilize and fix minor bugs to make it final before adding the new features.
But not to worry though, I'll definitely add this as I've thought of this as well.
Thanks!!
Is there any way (such as if the phone is recovered) to make the phone re-useable, or is a hard-reset the only solution?
Looks like an awesome app! What a great idea. I'll hold out for someone else to test it on their non GSM phone, but can't wait.
I think the protected folders idea is fantastic, that way a person could make sure all their pictures etc are gone.

Hi,
Normally, just insert the correct SIM Card and it will work. But, for example--
Let's say you manage to recover the phone but the SIM Card has already been thrown by the thief.The solution here is to :
1. Send an SMS from your partner phone to the recovered phone with the disableSecurity command. This will disable the security of the phone.
2. Send an SMS from your partner phone a resetPhone command to reboot the phone. This is to apply the disabled changes you've SMS'ed previously.
2. Run SmartProtect and register the SIM Card
3. Enable Security.
Your phone will then be protected with the new SIM Card in-place.
Thanks!!
Updated the software with the following changes :
1. Fix for PIN Mode issue.
2. Use schedule instead of sleeping during interval run, to make the software more responsive to SMS Commands once the protection runs.
Let me know if you need further information or if the update didn't go thru well.
Thanks!!
To survice hardreset, cook your own rom.
Configuring the setting and found some question, possible improvement and suggestion.
Suggest to put a warning message that User to backup their contacts before trying out one of the feature "Delete Contact on SIM Change".
But on SIM change, it will be deleting the changed SIM Contacts, not my SIM's contacts or Phone's memory contacts.
Anyway, I am backing up my contacts now before I click that option.
Suggest to also get the "Owner Information" sent in SMS like IIWPO when the content change so you may know more things about this thief.
My question is, if phone is unusable, how to send SMS? Or you are just locking the voice but not the SMS?
If you go to "Settings->Remove Programs", you see JLG SmartProtect, you can still remove program, make this invisible.
You have SmartProtect in "StartUp" which is needed, but the program should be running is secret invisible mode upon power up and not visible to the thief.

Or you can register 2 SIM Card. Chances of you losing 2 phones together is slim. Once the phone is back, insert the other SIM Card, it will be ok.
Looking at the feature, it should able to register more than 1 SIM, right?
After Configure, only switching on the Sercurity Mode, with my first SIM, I tried to test by switching to another SIM.
Upon power up with another SIM, the SmartProtect tried to execute from "StartUp" but gives an error message.
Tried getting into SmartProtect from "Program", it gives the same error message.
Putting back the original SIM, able to get into the configurating program.
Is this the correct behaviour?

Hi,
The first one seems to be an error. Is it an application error ?Can you click on details of the error and show me the screenshot ?
Second one is a correct behaviour. SmartProtect will not get executed until you've inserted the correct SIM Card. This is to protect it from someone else configuring other than you (assuming your phone was lost).
I've released a latest update on the first page. Can you try that one ? I will give you instructions on private on to configure manually first as I'm encountering errors on my post application.
Thanks!!
Hi,
I've found many software that supposed to help in case your phone get lost or stolen.
Some were expensive, some were free, but none fitted perfectly to what I was really expecting. So I've made my own.
The closest in terms of functionnalities (and price) is Remote Tracker, but it requires .NET 3.5 which is not installed on my WM6.5 phone, and honestly, it's a very fat dependency.
The idea is that you install this software (no CAB, simply copy the 2 files on your phone), and run it once to set up the configuration. Then forget it.
In the case the phone is stolen, the software will send you a SMS with the thief's phone number, it's GPS position, the CellID in case the GPS pos is not available.
You'll then be able to act on your phone remotely by sending it some SMS (described in documentation).
The features that makes this software unique are:
It's possible to destroy all your personal data remotely (call log history, contact, emails, SMS, calendar, owner info, storage card) -> help social engineering to get back your phone.
It's possible to make the phone send you back the call history and the sim contacts.
Slut mode (see the documentation for details).
WOULDYOUSHUTUP mode (where the phone is very very nasty).
All other tracking software features...
This software is open C++ source (GPLv3), small (75ko with no dependencies), and free.
You'll find it at http://dsmp.sf.net (documentation on that page)
Or the direct link is attached.
Beta tester welcome (I've tested all functions already, but, you know what software development is....)
Some remarks for those who don't read threads:
whereRU: requires you to have at least a .wav file in your windows ring folder. I thought all phone had at least one .wav based ring. In 64kb, I haven't included a MP3/AAC/MP4 player.
owner: This is what I said in my first posts. Microsoft didn't feel it was interesting to document how to retrieve owner info. So, almost all manufacturer have made there own proprietary stuff. I've a HTC phone, so I've checked the code work for HTC. If you have more information about where your phone store its owner information in registry, I can add your phone support.
contact: On the main config dialog, in the combo box where you can enter the phone number to contact, you'll have a phone number list. It's the same list as returned in the "contact" command. So if you don't have such list in the config dialog, then this means that either you don't have any contact on your SIM card, or it's not working (in that case PM me).
Please read the website http://dsmp.sf.net
To install the software:
1. Extract the zip file (either on your phone, or on the PC, and then copy the 2 files from archive to your phone)
2. Run the extracted exe on your phone. If you have signed warning say yes.
3. Set up your configuration (DON'T check "Don't show this screen anymore")
4. If you have a GPS in your device, go outside to make sure the GPS is working with the configuration you've made
5. Enter a (not yours) phone number in the SMS par edit/combobox
6. Enter a password in the edit box on the bottom
7. Click done => Say yes.
8. Start the software again, enter the previous password in the field on the botton to unlock the dialog, then click on "Configuration done, install now"
9. If you have signature warning for the DLL say yes.
10. It should display "Installation done". You can then send yourself a SMS with the right format to check if it's working.
11. If it's working, delete the SMS you've just sent from your outbox, and trash, and then start the software again and check "Don't show this screen anymore". You'll have to click "Configuration done" again, but this times, you shouldn't have any warning.
12. If it's not working, well post on the forum.
Changelog:
- Added "allow" command so it's possible to use multiple allowed SIM card. Setup the software as described above, and then change your card. You'll get a SMS with the new number (if not, your configuration isn't good). Then reply with the command "dsmp # allow # password" with no space between #. This SIM card is then allowed. You can have up to 4 allowed SIM card.
- Fixed an installation bug on non-french phone. Sorry, I've been lazy, and it should be fixed.
- Added support for "Dsmp" in addition of "dsmp" as trigger code
- More owner info retrieved for HTC phones
Please go to sf.net page ( http://dsmp.sf.net ) if you want to get the debug version or source code.
sounds impressive ! i might give it a try!
good work !
CDMA diamond running a 6.1 rom. got to step 8 and each time I enter in my password and close my keyboard the screen where the keyboard was (touchpal is my SIP) shows the screen behind what it should show. hope that makes sense. how do I uninstall this software?
also, I dont see anywhere where it says what WOULDYOUSHUTUP mode is.
WOULDYOUSHUTUP is what happen when you send a sms with "whereRU". The phone rings at max volume for 60s with no possible way to stop it, even if it was in silent mode.
Useful when you've lost your phone nearby, (it won't stop until you've found it, or 60s later), or, as intended, to become a nuisance to any thief in the middle of the night.
To uninstall the software you must click on "Zap" button, but you need your password for that. BTW if you haven't done step 8, you don't need to uninstall, as the installation proceed only when you click "Configuration done" button.
If the software doesn't accept the password you've set at step 6, then it's likely that it was entered wrong at first? I'll PM you about this, if you don't mind.
installed it, and tested a whereRU with another phone, doesn't work. :\
I've answered with specific details by PM. I trying to understand why installation didn't work for you. I'll update the post with the informations you'll give me.
sounds really nice.
I just see some problems. These problems apply to any anti-theft program :
If you have a pin-lock for the device (not sim card lock, the built-in windows lock), the thief will not be able to change anything (owner, ...). He can only change the sim and try to boot, what will of course fail. As this fails (without unlocking phone-lock, no dialing), he will not be able to establish a connection to his mobile network and you will not get his number (?!)
As hard-reset is always possible (every thief can google ) w/o the program being cooked into rom, this software is senseless if you can't cook roms. I can't
If I understood it correctly, you would need to edit the 2 files to your needs (with numbers aso) at first instance and afterwards cook them into rom. This has to be done by each end-user each time he flashes a new rom and cant be done by rom-chef because he doesnt know your data.
Isn't it possible to make that wireless? E.g. you specify an email there and the programm will at first boot after hardreset (after cooking into rom) establish a connection to a server (or mail to specified mail) to download the details (cell number, pw, ...) you entered in the server? ^^
You only can enter one own cell number. Bad if you sometimes switch the sim's.
Would be better to implement that from remotetracker:
SIM Cards: you can set up to four known SIM cards. If you, or anyone, change the SIM card to an unknown card, your emergency number and e-mails will receive a message alerting you about the change and with the new number

* If you use this kind of software, you'll want to make your thief believe he succeed owning your phone. If you PIN-lock your device, then the thief will have to hard reset the phone to use it, defeating the whole process.
* In my previous phone (Universal), there was a Extended ROM made by the operator that survived hard reset. I've used that ROM by that time.
Now, you're perfectly right, with a single ROM, the hard reset kills the software. Your idea of using a external server is genius. I guess I'll add this, using your device ID (which doesn't change whatever the ROM) (or IMEI), to retrieve the config for your phone. The config will be saved on a server, and the config can be sent back by SMS (so even if the thief doesn't have network contract, it'll work).
* You switch SIM ? Is 2 SIM okay ?
I wanted the software to be extremely simple to setup, so it detected the IMSI by itself.
Now, if you need to store 2 IMSI, it'll need another edit box to let you enter the IMSI numbers.
I can add a new command "allow" that, when you've inserted your second SIM, will allow the new IMSI upon receiving.
Let me think about this.
Yep, but I won't -of course- disable excellent built-in security mechanisms to make it *perhaps* easier to get the phone back just in case someone steals my phone.
The phone-lock is ideal to keep away random access to private and corporate data from other persons (friends, aso).
Despite the lack of some functions I installed the program yesterday and it doesn't work as thought:
The program loads after each reset again with the config screen
The program is active in task manager (dsmp.exe)
The sent commands aren't executed. If I send the commands (e.g. rst or whereRU) to the phone, the display turns on but nothing happens.
(perhaps the first 2 problems are caused because I did not hide the program yet with "Do not show this anymore" Not sure about that )
You could just say at setup: Now turn off the phone and enter your other sim and start the setup again to detect the second sim
hi popol256,
is there a chance for a very thin application, that after installed on a phone (e.g LEO) makes JUST the following:
- receiving a predefined SMS lock's the phone and encrypts the msd card.
To unlock the phone and decrypt the msd card, just a so called "master password" or whatever needs to be input.
That's all
thank you,
/s1
Locking the phone is possible (but again, if you lock the phone, then the thief will hard reset it).
Encrypting the microSD card is not, I think.
So far, I think you need to either encrypt it at first use (all WM6 phone have this as a base feature). When you have data on it and want to encrypt, it's almost impossible as you'll need the same free space on your device as your card size to store the encrypted version.
(Or if only encrypting content, you'll need to reserve half your card size for the "possibly" encrypted archive).
I guess the best method for you if to use the storage card encryption feature of WM + pin lock.

You are right. The only way to have both would be to cook your own ROM with the software inside.

Yes the 2 first issues are because the config says to show the dialog.
The third issue means that the software isn't installed well.
I've only tested it on my phone, and I might have done something wrong.
There is a debugversion here
Extract this version to your card, then run the exe in it, and click "Zap". Then wait for few minutes, and reset your phone (this is to make internal mail application to release its lock on the interceptor DLL).
Run the software again, and set the config, click "done" or "ok", and send yourself a SMS (don't need to install this version, it runs from the card).
You should get 2 message box, the first one contains the path to the software (end in .exe), and the message you've sent, and the second only contains the command you've sent. If this work, well, I'll have to double check the release version.

You could just say at setup: Now turn off the phone and enter your other sim and start the setup again to detect the second sim

Yes, it's the basic idea (in fact, as soon as you insert your second SIM, you'll receive a SMS, but you'll then send an "allow" command to add this IMSI in the allowed IMSI list). I'm adding this.

Ok, my fault then, I've used French name for the path. Let me few hours to compile a new version with the regular name, I'll post back here.
Ok, I've added the "allow" command for multiple sim card. The idea is simple, configure your software as said in the first page, then change your sim.
You'll received a SMS to the number you've set up. Then send a "allow" command with your password, and the new SIM is allowed you'll never receive a SMS again.
bliblablub,
Please run the version you have on your storage card, and click "Zap" button to uninstall it.
Then delete the 4xxxxxxxxx_dfed_p (xxxxx is a hexadecimal number) from your storage card (file format changed).
Then download the updated DSMP.zip version from the main (or the official) page again.
There was a bug with the file path that should be fixed now with the release version.
Thank you for your patience.

I can't uninstall it because it was not installed I guess (debug - storage). See errors on post before
Somehow I managed to uninstall the internal version. Needed several attempts.
Now installed again on phone and again nothing happens with whereRU and any other command except lcd turning on
Does it work fine?
Any opinion?
Nice, nice, nice. Sounds like the app I was always looking for. I will download and try. Thanks
It seems to work fine on my X1.
But gps is not recognized on port 4 baud 4800...
I am totally new to android, but I decided to try to root my phone anyway, mostly to be able to access the eduroam network at my school.
1) I succeeded in rooting my x10mini using the exploid method (this took me two whole days because I was so scared to break my phone lol), but after I updated today, through PC companion, I seem to have lost root. Should I not accept SE updates? Do I just root it again the same way I did the first time?
2) I downloaded Market Access to be able to download Wifi Config Editor. After installing Market Access, if I try to download something off the market, it takes a couple of minutes before the download starts. Even when I am in my own country's market. Is this normal?
3) How do I stop the emulation of foreign SIM card? So far I have tried emulating my original provider or restarted the phone.
4) If someone calls me while I am emulating a foreign provider, will the call be more expensive or something?
5) I tried to directly change the wifi settings with professordes instructions in the original exploid thread
Now that root is in wild one immediately useful thing to do is fix the WPA-PEAP which is missing. I need this for the eduroam university network at work.
So, with the phone connected and usb debugging on/wifi toggled off, from the androidSDK on a PC (Windows,Linux,Mac) get a shell.....
1) adb shell
2) su
3) cd /data/misc/wifi
4) busybox vi wpa_supplicant.conf
(to edit the wpa configuration file)
5) add this at the end
network={
ssid="eduroam"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
identity="MYIDENTITY"
password="SECRET"
phase1="peapver=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
priority=7
}
or similar, where MYIDENTITY is your eduroam login ID and SECRET is your password. This is taken verbatim from another phone (HTC Desire, Android 2.2) which does work OK. You could also edit the file off phone and adb push it on, just watch ownerships and permissions don't get munged up.....
6) save
7) log out
8) connect and surf, it works for me
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I copy-pasted steps 1-5 (I pasted the last step directly after the text in the cmd window). Since I am a noob, I didn't know how to save and exit, so I just closed the cmd window and unplugged usb...
BIG MISTAKE!
...After I restarted it, my phone was completely dead. After a one hour recharge in the wall socket, the phone worked again and it seems fine now.
So, could someone make a step-by-step (noob-)guide on how to successfully change the wifi settings with this metod?
6) Thank you in advance

1 - Updating it removes the root, but you can simply re-root it the same way.
4 - That only applies to the market. It fools it into thinking you're using a SIM from a different country.
I've been testing apps for days and this is the one that worked best on my AMAZFIT PACE watch. It works quite well and with the method I present you can download maps from all over the world in the internal memory of the watch. It does not work with the clock wifi itself. It perfectly locates the location and you can access most of the options.
Sometimes you can not read the content well but we can help you from the same application on the phone. I briefly explain how I did it. More ahead I will go up explaining videos.
We will need to have a phone with Android.
First, we installed the app on the phone and in the watch (via apkinstaller). The application (apk) that I have installed is called "All-In-One Offline Maps + .ver.2.4.build.51" if you put it like that in google you will appear to download.
Then we open the app on your mobile phone:
• We go to the symbol of the map,
• Click on "save an area"
• Framing the part of the map that we want to save and the zoom that we want to obtain
• Press the save button
• This process will take a long time to download
• Once downloaded we will go to the root folder of the phone and copy the folder "OfflineMaps" and save it in our PC.
Once the folder is saved in our PC we replace it with the one in our amazfit . Now we will open the app on our amazfit and should see the downloaded area. It perfectly locates our location. To be able to know what you put in the options it is better to go browsing the app on the mobile at the same time.
Sorry i can put a link because i am a new user.
Search: "Amazfit Maps + GPS offline [NEW APK compatible]" in youtube and you can see a video demostration
I hope I have been helpful.

After saving the maps it should appear in the root folder
hello
very interesting.
I see release 2.7 available, do you recommend 2.4 because it is the only one working or should I proceed with 2.7?
Do you how to uninstall the app if I need to?
thank you

I am the only version I have tried. Under my experience with other apps in the amazfit, the older the actualization the less likely to fail. That is why I have stayed with version 2.4.
Anyway try to try it and tell us how you have gone. You can uninstall from apkinstaller
it work so far but I have a blank area at the bottom of the screen (same on the phone).
I could not remove it, do you know how to do so? you dont have it from what I have seen on youtube
edit: this is the area for the adds...

Hello,
On my smartphone the saving of saved cards is on Android / data / net.psyberia.offlinemapsplus / files / cache / builtin-maps,
So if I understand I get the two files * .DAT and * .DX that I put in a folder "offlineMaps" on the PC, that I send to the watch Amazfit Pace, but how to send it in the watch? With the PC and the connected watch? But there is a specific file to put this folder map in the watch?
Thank you for your reply.
adb shell

start adb shell on your PC and send:
adb push ./<pc-path>/filename.Dat /mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/legacy/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
adb push ./<pc-path>/filename.IDX /mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/legacy/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
Thus you get you files at least to your watch. I enabled on the Watch the option "Use Only local storage" in order to avoid network acceess issue.
But at the moment I do not get it why the APP is not finding the local files?
The APP on the watch indicates a different path to the workspace on the mobile for offline data:
watch pach: /storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache
with adb I do not get the access rights to create the /storage/emulated/ (read only) etc. dirctories and with the mounted path I am allowed to create everything but then itis not found by the watch app:
/mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache
Still I have no clue how to solve this directory issue?:silly:
you can kill the package on the watch with an adb shell too:
am force-stop net.psyberia.*
Beside the APP is only working in a reasonable way with the Paid version. With the free version you get a blank column in the buttom which makes navigation impossible. The App itself can only be started on the watch and only be dismissed via adb shell -> am force-stop ....
or power shut down. Since it can be very CPU consuming I would assume that the resulting power drain is not funny. Currently I think it can only ne used as a sort of emergeny app I only will use if I am completly lost and the mobile is out of power too. Therefore you should think twice before you spend time and money on this.
I am using All-In-One Offline Map+ version 2.9

I finally got it and it works great! The "simple" solution is to install a file explorer on the watch itself. I found one online and it works great (com.alphainventor.filemanager.apk). The local file explorer (on the watch) 'sees' all the directories properly. You can therefore copy and paste the files from your PC on the "SD card" part of the watch (where you can see some directories and have read/write access). Then use the watche's file explorer to move those files/dirs (the maps) to the right folder on the watch. It will then work!
As an added bonus, once you copy files into those "unseen by Windows" directories (for example one of mine was "Android" and all its subdirs) it becomes visible in Windows Explorer! So next time you update maps on the PC you should be able to copy and paste over without requiring the use of the watche's file explorer.
I hope that helps.

Ok FileManager works but you can achieve the same with adb shell too.
Still I do not understand to which path the offline map files needs to be pushed that they get loaded. According to Settings->StrorageDevice I should know the right path but it is not working.
So where to push the files?
Now I got it. Of course the offline strorage path is different for each map type and can be seen with the details of the map.
I am using OSM Hike&Bike, it states in its details for offline storage /storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps an therefore I pushed it to the followng path (means "/storage" is substituted by "/mnt/shell")
adb push ./<pc-path>/OSMCYC.DAT /mnt/shell/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
adb push ./<pc-path>/OSMCYC.IDX /mnt/shell/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
Beside I have installed a task manager thus I am able to kill the app. Thus it very much easier to restart the app when needed.

Glad you got it working. I am using the free version of Psyberia maps, as it is much lighter in resources. Of course you do get a white bar at the bottom of the screen (only on free version - paid shouldn't have it) but it is still very usable so....
