Adding and removing
programmes
Programmes added to your phone at the factory
are stored in ROM (Read Only Memory). You
cannot remove this software, and you’ll never
accidentally lose ROM contents. ROM
programmes can be updated using special
installation programmes with a *.xip extension.
All other programmes and data files added to
your phone after factory installation are stored
in RAM (Random Access Memory).
You can install any programme created for your
phone, as long as your phone has enough
memory. The most popular place to find
software for your phone is on the Pocket PC
website (http://www.microsoft.com/
windowsmobile/pocketpc).
Adding programmes using ActiveSync
You can install a programme downloaded from
the Internet or included on the supplied
software CD-ROM by performing a
synchronisation between your phone and the
computer. For more information on the
synchronisation, see page 58.
First you need to determine what your phone
and processor type are so that you know which
version of the software to install.
1. From the Start menu, tap Settings
→
System
tab
→
About.
2. In the Version tab, make a note of the
information in the Processor field.
3. Download the programme to your computer (or
insert the CD or disk that contains the
programme into your computer).
