Does anybody know how to switch the ringer profiles for Smartphone 2003-based phones programatically? I found the registry key for it at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Profiles\ActiveProfile, but everytime I try to switch it manually (change the value for ActiveProfile to "Silent" or "Normal") it does not work. The registry change sticks, but it doesn't apply the change right away like I want. How do I make the phone's components sense and make that registry change permanent (unless I change it in the registry again)?

hello dear ce coderz,
i have some questions regarding internet connectivity on
windows ce (.net 4.2) devices.
1) wininet
some important wininet methods, e.g.
InternetDial
InternetHangup
InternetAutodial
InternetAutodialHangup
seem to be non-existent in many sdks (no implementation in wininet.lib),
even the pocket pc 2003 sdk.
ms/msdn says these are standard-wininet methods.
what is going on? is it possible to initiate auto-dial and get a
valid handle for wininet methods (e.g. those for ftp sessions)
without these methods?
2) 'connectoids'
how is it possible to either
- copy an existing dial-up connectoid to another win ce device (identical
os version)
- or change a connectoid's settings (dial-string, ip/dns settings etc.)
automatically from a c++ program?
i did not find any connectoid settings in the registry (only the connectoid name)
and i was not able to identify files which represent connectoids.
any hints regarding these subjects are very welcome!! 
thank you in advance,
patrick

hello again,
i also realized that on my system (win ce.net 4.2 prototype board),
the wininet methods 'InternetGetConnectedState'/'InternetGetConnectedStateEx' are
implemented, but do not behave like expected.
the returned dword value is always the same (18), regardless of
the system currently being connected or not.
the string value returned by the Ex-method is always empty.
is this behaviour normal?
how is it possible to find out if the system is currently connected via (w)lan or gprs, or not at all?
thank you in advance,
greetings from berlin,
patrick

Windows Mobile is a little bit different on connection. You might have been looking at the wrong place. Try APIs for Connection Manager.

hello mr.jong,
thank you for your reply!
i am actually developing for windows ce (.net 4.2) devices,
not for windows mobile / embedded devices.
my questions should be placed correctly,
because there is no specific message board for windows ce development
and this message boards' description says it should be used for
mobile, embedded and ce development?!
greetings from berlin,
patrick

Yes indeed, this forum, I believe is also for Windows Mobile (the new name for Pocket PC/WinCE)be it version wce420 or previous version.
While researching to start this product I was also spending quite a lot of my time trying to make the functions you mentioned above worked, IMHO it is not supported, after many tries, I gave up.
Cheers,

I have a question. I've been throwing out ideas to write a program, but I'm having a slight problem trying to figure something out on my Motorola MPx220. There are 3 audio outputs (I don't know if they are different audio devices though): earphone, headphone, and speakerphone. There are also 3 audio inputs: earphone, headphone, and speakerphone. These have been gathered as physical input/outputs, but is it possible to have a 4th for each based on a call? For example, if I called waveInOpen and passed it some device ID, would it be possible to record what I hear in the earpiece and what the phone hears through the microphone during a call? I know people have developed applications to do it with previous versions of Windows Mobile, but is it possible to do it in 2003 2nd Edition? If so, how would I go about figuring out which device is the valid device(s) to record from?

When I try to use the API function GetFileVersionInfoSize() to retrieve the
size of the version resource in my PocketPC app the size returned is always
zero. When I get the error value with GetLastError() the error value is:
Error 1814: The specified resource name cannot be found in the image file.
I am passing the name of my executable file to GetFileVersionInfoSize() as
follows:
The path to the executable is: My Device\debug\myappce.exe
size = GetFileVersionInfoSize(_T("myappce.exe",&dummy);
I have also tried:
size = GetFileVersionInfoSize(_T("\\\\debug\\myappce.exe",&dummy);
Is there something I am doing wrong ... are GetFileVersionInfoSize and the
rest of the version API functions supported on PocketPC (winCE 4.2) ?
Thanks, Tom

Try this
TCHAR FileName[MAX_PATH + 3] = TEXT("\"");
DWORD FileSize;
DWORD InfoSize;
FileSize = GetModuleFileName(NULL, FileName + 1, MAX_PATH+3);
InfoSize = GetFileVersionInfoSize(FileName, &FileSize);
The result?
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.
Cheers.

In the previous post I was trying to link to .lib files, that I suspect it can't be done. However now I want to link with .NET Assemblies. I 've created my assembly through VS .NET 2003 as a "Class Library (.NET)" project and compiled it. How can I use it now from my C# .NET application for PocketPC?

I want to use some third party code for PocketPC. However they distribute the code in .lib and I need to implement it in C# .NET. Is there any way I can link to these files or I can only link to .dll libraries?
Thank you,
Themis.

I'm surprised that they've shipped a static library. It should be fairly straightfoward to build a DLL that exports routines that wrap the static library.
In fact it might just be possible to write a .DEF file containing the routines to export and run the .lib and .def through the linker. It's pretty nasty though, so I'd normally go with the first route.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

In MFC, use Default() in the OnLButtonDown do the trick. Try read the MFC codes it might give you some clues.

Posted this message in the Lounge first - and then discovered this.
I am looking for a book to get started on Pocket PC development using c++
I have used MFC (MSVC6) for quite some time and am beginning to use ATL/WTL. I need to build a Pocket PC companion app to a desktop app we have and am looking for a good book to get me started.
I would also welcome any suggestions on the development environment - I subscribe to MSDN and thus have access to what MS offers. I am thinking starting by supporting Pocket PC 2002 devices and I understand that means the 3.0 version of the development environment.
I thank you in advance for all you suggestions.

If you are looking for Pocket PC books on MFC/ATL/WTL, chances are that you are not going to find them.
This book is good: Programming Windows CE.Net (3rd Edition). The title is a little bit misleading, it is essentially a book on Win32 for Pocket PC.
If you know MFC well then why don't you just dive in and come back to CodeProject later when you have problem.
Cheers.

Thanks,
I have come to the same conclusion.
I am thinking not using MFC, and was looking for some examples about databases and synchroning between Mobile and Desktop.
I will take a look at the the book I suggested - I was avoiding books that said .Net as I use Visual Studio 6.
