Hi, nice to see that you have found my small tool. It’s basically designed for GPS navigation systems that uses Windows CE 5/6 but possibly can work with newer ones. Technically it just replaces registry hklm > init which enables explorer and enables taskbar via win32 api, but it’s not very well tested. You can brick your device very easy, so be careful. There are compiled binaries in the source tree at JailbreakPDA/bin/Debug.

This is gonna be tricky to use because basically zero GPS systems based on CE have the .NET CF installed
