Hp 4150 giveaway

I have this old 4150, I got working again by reflashing, it's not worth much if anything. I am willing to give it away to someone preferably in the UK (due to shipping costs). My thinking is, that there maybe someone here who would get more enjoyment from it than me.

Samsung Blackjack i607

Does anyone know how to transfer old text messages from a Samsung Blackjack phone? There was one software company that offered this but is no longer in business. I want to be able to transfer all the stored sent and received messages to my windows 11 Dell Inspiron but there is no software I can find besides the defunct godsmobile. TIA!

Decided to get a WM device!

Bit of a strange one but here it is! A Honeywell Dolphin 6000, running WM6.5. Only interesting things about it are that, it's Honeywell, and it's a barcode scanner!

Why doesn't asphalt4 work?

When I try to start asphalt 4 this error appears. Sometimes the game starts, but pressing anything makes it crash immediately.

Does it work on your device? How can I fix this problem? I tried rebooting, but it doesn't help.

Any way I can port Windows 10 Mobile into a Nokia Lumia 920?

I have my old Nokia Lumia 920 lying around and was wondering if Windows 10 Mobile was even possible on the Lumia 920. From what I am aware of, Win10Mo was available to some 920s via Windows Insider Program.

If anyone has any know how or a link to some guide online, that would be helpful.

CAB files for SGH-i600 [Windows Mobile 5.0]

I was recently able to find an old Samsung SGH-i600, wielding Windows Mobile 5.0.

I was only able to install Opera Mini, but almost every link I try is broken.

Where can I find more .cab files?

Does anyone happen to have the WM 6.1 installer for the Samsung SCH-i760?

I've been scouring the internet looking for the upgrade tool for the SCH-i760, with no luck. SCH-i760_WM_6_1_Upgrade_Tool_For_Vista.zip

WayBackMachine has, sadly, been unhelpful. I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have this file or know of any good resources for long abandoned files like this?

Lost Windows Mobile 6/6.1 Apps

Hello, so I was on the wayback machine checking out the Windows Mobile website because I was bored, and I found out that one part of the Windows Mobile website offered apps that you could download the file onto your computer, then transfer it to the computer. I tried to download one of them, but it seems that all of the download links are dead. The apps included:

- SplashNews

- Zumobi

- Viigo

- WorldMate Live

- MSNBC

- Live Search

- 3D Nine Hole Golf

- Invasion

- Guitar Hero 3

- Texas Hold'em

Here is the link: https://web.archive.org/web/20080821114236/http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/totalaccess/software/default.mspx

If anyone has any dumps of any of these apps, please share the .cab file with me. Thank you!

wm6 messenger apps?

does anyone know any messenger app for windows mobile 6.5 that still works today?

it also needs to have clients for other platforms as well. im trying to make use of a touch pro 2 as a daily phone.

other options would be running my own message server if there is clients i can use.

i already tried icq but there is no way to log in as modern icq creates accounts using phone number instead of username and password, unless theres a workaround
