    Ok now I have the new version and I was happily creating icons now when I try to go into settings it never opens. I have to do a soft reset to get out. Please advise Thanks
  • Deb
    I had this program working then it "hung" after soft reset I can't get it to run again. I have uninstalled and I still have the program in the start menu and in programs but when clicked says it is missing a component please reinstall. After reinstalling I get a iFonz OnPaint Error NullReferenceException

    Saijo George,

    I already had the 3.5 version, so i downloaded the net config, and switched it so that it always runs programs on 3.5. Even after this, I still keep getting the same error message when trying to run ifonz.exe. Any other ideas?
  • Check your .Net version @ times when you install the new version the files does not get installed properly see this tutorial for install instruction : http://www.saijogeorge.com/2008/11/24/delete-ol...
  • Joe Mende
    Saijo George,

    Now it said my framework wasn't up to date, so I downloaded and installed the 3.5 framework. But now when I try to install the ifonz.exe, it keeps saying unexpected error in ifonz.exe and i have to restart the program or quit. I tried that over and over, but no luck. Do i need a different version?
  • see if this version makes any difference : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2008/11/12/ifonz-11...

    Saijo George,

    I finally figured out how to transfer the ifonz exe file from my laptop to my tmobile wing, however..it says there is not enough space on the storage card to convert the exe file. My card has 1800mb available..is that not enough?
  • what seems to be the issue when you try and change the options in the settings page ?

    Saijo George,

    I have installed iFonz V1.1.2 QVGA on T-Mobile Wing. I cannot change any settings in the iFonz Settings Menu. Can you please help me out? I appreciate.

    Thanks.

    Thanks again Saijo,

    Could not have done it without your help.

    I'll give this site a try.

  • great news.

    I followed this site for my first upgrade its got some detailed tutorial reg flashing: http://www.mrvanx.org/thg/
  • Monty
    Eureka !!

    Got it.

    It seems that the NET v35 file I had installed prior was not the updated version, and this version worked after I also loaded the netcfcfg.cab file.

    I followed your instructions and vuala !

    the iFonz loaded fine and it looks good.

    Now, can I bother you a bit more ?

    I now am trying to load Hard-spl-v7. "Olipro 2.10"

    I am trying to run the zip executable file from my desktop and I follow the instructions, but when I click that last button to run the file, it locks up and gives me the message ( 260 ) USB not connected.

    What I am trying to do is upgrade from my current wm5 to wm6 or wm6.1 if possible, but from what I have researched, it is a good idea to first load the Hard-spl-v7 .

    I currently have HERM100 - IPL-1.01 / SPL-1.06

    Any suggestions or advice would be again appreciated.

    Thanks again!

  • lets give it one more shot, try this version of .NET http://www.1800pocketpc.com/shared_files/NETCFv...

    Install to Phone memory, reboot. Open Net Configuration and follow the instructions posted above.

    Once you change this to version 3.5 all application should use 3.5 so there will be no need to change the application policy.

    Fingers crossed :)
  • Monty
    Okay Saijo,

    Downloaded to device and followed your instructions.

    I navigated to the "Device Policy" and it was in (Deault) and the only other selection scroling down was "1.0.4292" there was no other option so I wen on and selected this and apply .

    I rebooted, but still iFonz exe. will not run ( still says needs a newer version NET.....)

    I also see that there is a tab "Application Policy" and it seems that it allows you to Override Device Policy for certain applications, example-(\MyDocuments\iFonz\.exe)

    Is this something I could use or should I leave this alone?

    Thank you for hanging in there with me !!!!

    Regards,

    Monty
  • Install this to your device memory : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/shared_files/netcfc...

    Running '.Net Configuration' from your Start Menu
    Navigating to the 'Device Policy' tab and selecting version 3.5
    Selecting 'Apply' then 'OK'
    Reboot

    See if that helps.

    Whats it does is that it forces Windows Mobile to use .NET 3.5 over the older version of .NET that might be present on your device.
  • Monty
    Thanx Saijo,

    I have gone through your steps and downloaded the NET Compact Framework 3.5 that you have provided link ( opened 9 files total ) on to my device in a program file.

    I extracted this NET Compact file on to my device memory and from here went to the iFonz 1.1.2 and extracted in it's own iFonz file, and now when I click either setting exe or IFonz exe file to run the program, I get message "This application (iFonz.exe) requires a newer version of the Mocrosoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device"

    I am stumped!!!

    Could it be that I have not run the NET Compact correctly or is it necessary to also open the 9 files from the extracted NET Compact files individually ???

    Note: Some files of iFonz do operate like the readme files and utilities & gfx files.

    I would very much appreciate your help in resolving this.

    Thanks in advance,

    Mony
