Let me tell you how god like you and pcfixitman are! very, god like, very... ;)
But the program is not (yet) working on the Professional version of Windows Mobile 6.
I tried it on an Xda orbit 2 (HTC Touch Cruise) and the procedures seem to match, it changes the type of device into headset, I can assign an outgoing port and I can add an incoming port. All fine.
But there seems to be an incompatibility with the OS. It spits out the following error when I select "Open COM":
Code:
smartWatchM.exe
IOException
Es kann keine Fehlermeldung angezeigt werden, da die optionale Ressource der Assembly, die die Fehlermeldung enthält, nicht gefunden wurde.

bei System.IO.Ports.SerialStream.WinIOError()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialStream..ctor()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.Open()
bei smartWatchM.Form1.menuItem3_Click()
bei System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem.OnClick()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Menu.ProcessMnuProc()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Form.WnProc()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Control._InternalWnProc()
bei Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
bei smartWatchM.Program.Main()

But great work, I might marry you :p

EDIT: I softreset the PPC and now it just kind of worked. The devices communicated with each other, I got some output on the screen and I could make the watch vibrate. It doesn't work anymore *just now*. I'll keep trying...

EDIT 2: Since my girlfriend gave me the watch as a (ridiculously expensive) present and it didnt work till now, she - upon I demonstrated her your work - said, and I quote: "Offer that guy my body..." :)

This is coming along nicely, it works great on WM6 Pro. I thought about the program and came up with some proposals:
  • Once you port it to unmanaged code (C/#/+ of some sort I guess) can you make it use language files? Users could customize/localize the messages like that.
  • You could implement several control modes. Like music player control, or system msg control (show info/rss/battery etc msg) or whatever and switch modes by applying a button combination. Next/prev toggles between modes for example. You get the idea.
  • If possible you could even implement some kind of a plugin system. An API of some sort so that ppl could write their own extensions to use the watches ability. I can't think of anything useful yet, maybe use the watch to control the PPC which then acts as an infra red remote control for the TV. Just whatever stupid ppl can come up with :)
Thats it, more or less, what I could come up with.

It's too early for that.
Most important thing will be text converter (text -> hex) that will allow possible dynamic text/graphic output to the watch (reading SMS/Email...). The display is 96x16 so even 2-line output would be possible.:D

You could implement several control modes. Like music player control, or system msg control (show info/rss/battery etc msg) or whatever and switch modes by applying a button combination. Next/prev toggles between modes for example. You get the idea.
Yeah, I got the same idea. First I'm gonna make some switching modes in WM application util everything will be optimized.

If possible you could even implement some kind of a plugin system. An API of some sort so that ppl could write their own extensions to use the watches ability. I can't think of anything useful yet, maybe use the watch to control the PPC which then acts as an infra red remote control for the TV. Just whatever stupid ppl can come up with :)
I've heard about remote control already. :D Plugins... Too early to say ....

Anyway, I'm still working on improving stability (dummyproof, avoid any crash), better (faster) event handling and adding new features. :)

Hmm, finally someone made a wm plugin for this great piece of hardware :D
Have been eying it before, but without a wm plugin it was pretty much useless.
When I get the chance I'll buy one for sure now.
Will check out on this thread for the progress you make :)

Well of course it's waaaay to early for all that, I was just thinking out loud. Thats all. But putting graphics/multi line text on the display, oh god, buddy, you could charge 20 bucks for that thing if you'd finish it :D

It's working great btw, I tested it quite hard today. I ran across the following:

If the watch is out of range and you get a message, sWM crashes because (thats what I read out of the message) it tries to access the non-existant device on the com port sending the new msg notification:
Code:
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialStream.Write()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.Write()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.WriteLine()
bei smartWatchM.Form1.timer2_Tick()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Timer._WnProc()
bei System.Windows.Forms.ApplicationThreadContext._InternalContextMessages()
bei Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
bei smartWatchM.Program.Main()

schaggo: I tried calling my phone while watch was out of reach - without any crash. So maybe I have corrected it meanwhile.

schaggo, what watch do you have? MBW-150?
I have implemented few more features (battery status (5-level), notification repeat, new message type (envelope + message type)...) so you may test & report. ;)
For now, sWM offers even more features than Sony Ericsson phone (in case you dont use Media Player control and dont need reject incoming calls). :)

I have an MBW-150 Classic like you.
And it makes me freak out, because I owned a SonyEricsson P1 and was going nuts because the watch worked so well and all features *cough couch lol* were supported. And on WM nothing worked. But SonyEricsson actually was wrong, the watch has as many features, as the agent on the phone can control. So, well, let's say sWM is f***ing exciting! I'll get on testing...

I just downloaded the newest version (0.1.3.1 I guess).
I ran intro a problem though. I can't successfully establish a clean connection anymore. It hangs at AT+CCLK? and before that throws ALOT of ERROR: No data. Press... to start. at me. It does that again after a couple seconds. The watch just continues to connect (<<<<<<<B>>>>>>>)

Edit: Strangely though, it seems to work now. I tried a couple times with disconnecting, turning bluetooth on and off on the device and the watch, and now it seems to work.

This may happen from time to time if sWM doesnt respond to all initiation commands. It's probably because watch was already sending commands when you press Start. But I'm not 100% sure anyway. Even I have to deal with this sometime...
Turn on/off BT on both watch and WM. Try waiting few seconds (before you press button on watch). Or restart your WM. This helps a lot.

EDIT: I have done some fixes in v0.1.3.2. I believe this prevent from that error as much as possible.

EDIT2: One more time... v0.1.4.0 should be more power-savy, and has faster responses.

I found the new version to be very very fast. Congrats on that!
From time to time the watch reports a lost connection though.
Watch and PDA are on the table and out of the blue the watch vibrates and shows lost connection. Dunno if it's a fundamental bluetooth problem or some communication errors with the program.

Another thing: my mum called me today and the watch only vibrated without showing the number. I gonna run a test right now: Indeed, the watch only vibrates without passing on the number. It shows the "Missed call" though after I hang up. Did you change anything in that routine?

Edit: Minor annoyance spotted: smartWatchM doesn't speak foreign languages, ë for example shows up as ? on the phone...

This never happen to me. I lost the connection only if I leave room without my phone. I guess this may be weak BT. Or maybe WM close sWM because of memory?

I've just checked that and it should still work. If the watch rings without showing phone number/caller name, this is result of
wrong initiation. I tried that several times today and got this error only one time. Exiting the application and starting again helped. My only advice is: Do not immidiately start the communication but wait a while. My connection is successful in 95% tries. BTW, I do not turn off BT.
I will test sWP on other devices.

Does it display "ë" with SE phone? I think the watch support only ASCII. I will add feature that will unaccent the characters.

I doubt that WM closes sMW. I'm a memory freak and I immediately close every application I don't use anymore. And the Touch Cruise with 128mb RAM should be stong enough to run sWM ;)

I guess I'm to dumb or the Bluetooth stacks in our phones are *not exactly* the same, hence the inconveniences. But they are minor and not really something to care about at this point. But as you said, restarting the program and turning bluetooth on and of usually resolves the problem very quickly.

As for the accent, I don't know. I'd have to check that. Let's see where I can get a SE from ;)
(I actually have 3 laying around... just to lazy to switch sim cards :p)

watch+bluetooth headset?

I have an HTC Athena, it is possible to have connected in the same time the watch and a bluetooth headset? If is possible it will be the perfect combination....

Hi,


great thing it should work on WM6, because I got the watch as a present, and me or them did not know it would only work with some phones.

I have a question for you: How do i enter the registry values on windows mobile 6 (smartphone)

i installed PHM Registry Editor, and i can enter all keys and values but don't know how to do this one:

sdprecord"=hex:36,00,32,36,00,2F,09,00,00,0A,00,01,00,00,09,00,01,35,03,19,11,01,09,00,04,35,0C,35,03,19,01,00,35,05,19,00,03,08,01,09,01,00,25,09,47,50,53,20,52,46,63,6F,6D"

I tried to add a binary value with value starting from 36,00,.... and so one, but i couldn't enter all of it due to maximum characters. Kind of stuck here, anyone an idea?

    I've got a new MBW-150 but it won't connect. I've been using an MBW-150 previously. The screen dimmed. Now I've got a new watch but I cannot seem to connect. I'm using WinMo 6.5.

    I figured I needed to either change the device (Settings--> Device) or re-Discover and Pair, but both functions are greyed out on the phone, so that I cannot access them. I'm using smartWatchM v 1.2.6.0 (20100227).

    Any hints?

    Thanks!
    what device (model) are you using?

    have you aplied the registry fix that is mentioned (HKLM\Software\Widcomm\BTConfig\Services\0001\Auto from 1 to 0 and restart the device ) delete all previous watches from the bt manager

    The rubber wristband on my Music Edition watch broke. Does anyone know where to get a replacement. Obviously I've contacted SonyEricsson, but if you know an online store selling them it would be good.

    Thanks!
    I found many wristbands for most of the mbw series and mbw-200 here but the prices are a little hot but they only ship to Germany, I managed to get me one through a friend I have in Germany hope you can too.

    Unless you absolutely need original band, I believe any 20mm springbar wristband/watch strap will do. Tons of different designs are available cheaper and also you can find one that you like better than original one. For example, try eBay, or this shop is pretty good too - http://www.watch-band-center.com

    Edit: sorry, just noticed original question was about MBW-150 and not MBW-200 (which is 20mm). Not sure which size MBW-150 is, you may measure it yourself (distance between lugs). As long as it using springbar strap, third party straps should also work.

    Does anyone know if it is possible to display the number calling in large fonts.

    If I disable 2-lined Caller ID, no number at all shows, just a blinking phone symbol. If I enable it, the number shows, but only in half size (obviously, as it is a one of two lines). So is it possible to get the number to show despite having 2-lined caller ID disabled?

    Thanks!

    UPDATE! Suddenly the phone number shows with numbers displayed as a full line. Don't know what was wrong previously.

    You use the beta version of smart watch (SmartWatch 1.2.6.0 (the beta version) )?
