Tweaks2K2 Nominations

Smart Phone and Pocket PC Magazine Best Software Awards in one of the most important events in the World of Mobile devices. Tweaks2K2 for Pocket PC - last year Winner - has been nominated for 5th time - consecutively - for this Award. But that's not all, the Second Member of Tweaks2K2 family, Tweaks2K2 for SmartPhone has been also nominated again this year, its second year as nominee. I feel honored to have these two programs nominated for this Prestigious Awards.

Tweaks2K2 has a 3rd Member in its family: Tweaks2K2 PC Edition. This program was specially designed having in mind the small screens of UMPCs/Origamis devices. And even when it's not that well known like its two "older brothers" for me is one of the most important tool that an IT professional in charge of configuring Pocket PCs can have. In addition to the usual PC Registry hacks, Tweaks2K2 PC Edition is armed with more than 75 registry hacks that allow to take full control and configure any Pocket PC without having to install any software on it. All is done from your PC using this program.

Fixes issue where certain CompactFlash (CF) memory cards and I/O cards do not respond.

ActiveSync 4.2 problem

To all those who have had problems with connecting to the internet from the device when upgrading from ActiveSync 4.1 to 4.2:

ActiveSync version 4.2 made a change to how it interacts with the Windows networking stack to use Layered Service Providers (LSPs) on outgoing Desktop-Pass-Through connections. This allows for improved compatibility in environments where connections to the internet must be passed through these LSPs (ISA Proxy is one such example).

Unfortunately, it appears this change has caused some issues for a small segment of users who have LSPs that interfere with ActiveSync communication.

There is a registry key fix which will essentially remove this change.

Please download and rename the attached text file with the .txt extension to the .reg extension. In other words, change the file LSPvalue.txt to LSPvalue.reg. Afterwards, please double click on the newly renamed .reg file and click on the "Yes" button.

This should resolve your issues.

Thanks,
