PDA client programming ? Client issue

Postby lar282 on Sun Sep 25, 2005 12:55 pm

Hi
I don't know if its only me that have this issue but here's the deal.

If I run xlobby client on the PDA and then power of the pda the xlobby client wont reconnect if I turn the PDA back on. I guess it is a matter of timing and the pda doesn't have contact with the server fast enough so it terminates.

SO, what if we write a small "service" for the PDA and let that control the client. I guess Steven is to busy moddifying the client itself so I guess it's up to us.

My question is, does anybosy knows what it takes to write a program to a pocketPC? I got Visual Studio 2003 installed and hoping its just a addon to it!

the "service" would be real simple.

* Sense if powerON on the PDA, if so, terminate xlobby client and wait for connection to server- If connected run xlobby client.

This is apparently a wireless card issue. My Ipaq does not loose it's connection when it powers off.

I don't use the wireless I use the USB and internet passthrough.
So u don't have the problem wierd. When I turn it off and then on it takes 1 second to long for the device to get the ip adress so xlobby terminates. I thought all had this problem. That sucks.
