Vodafone Casio Message-Cam (MC20B) some more software...

Hello

I bougth this device on ebay, just for fun, it was very cheap

I read that the messagecam is a CE 2.11/2.12 based device

here is a description of all functions, but in german

I searched a bit around in the web but i couldn't find any downloads or things like this, thats why i'm asking here for some help

greetings Mystic-X

Wow, cool. The processor specs are very close to my Casio E-105 (also CE 2.11). The World Clock looks just like the one on the BE-300 (CE 3.0). I would guess that you'd need a third-party file explorer to unlock the core OS under the device's GUI, kinda like people use to unlock the core OS on PNAs (GPS navigation devices). You'd put it on whatever type of memory card it takes.

it has a MMC card slot and i get a 128MB card with it
but how can i install an file explorer if i have no connection to my computer or i'm able to boot the device with some tricks into its native OS?
or wich path and tool can i try to boot it fröm the MM-Card?

Mystic-X: here is my hacking experience with it:

i should put a package together (to hack it) and upload it. will do it soon

yea but if there is no filemanager then the thing isnt that simple

luckily there is a backdoor.

Hello cmonex
that sounds great!
only one question before, can i use the camera if i had hacked the device?

greetings Mystic-X

Mystic-X: check the thread link again. i updated it with full instructions!!

i didnt try the camera in explorer shell but it would probably work in casio shell only. so switch back to casio if you want a pic. you'll still have the device hacked nicely, that's no problem.

OK
thank you
I will try it, and hope that everything will run correctly

That's a cool toy. I want one. Too bad they only marketed them in Europe.

yes it is a cool toy thats right

so now its running with a "normal" win ce shell
but i think i will need some more dll files tu run nearly all applications

what files will i need to run GSPlayer? i copied the following ones to the windows folder:
AGYSHELL.DLL
Doclist.dll
Gx.dll
NOTE_PRJ.DLL

but GSPlayer will not work

It's written for H/PC 2000 - you have to use Executability Check to change the OS version to 2.11. (The DLLs need to have their OS versions changed as well.) There's no guarantee it'll work even then - I've gotten it working in H/PC Pro, but not on the CE 2.11 Palm-size PC. Though it looks like H/PC Pro on the screen, I don't assume all the DLLs in ROM are the same.

i tryed to use Executability Check but i can't find a version working on my device

as said, it isn't hpc pro. ..........it's better / newer: runs CE 2.12.

but as it is not a platform, depends on implementation how complete it is. ive found a rom dumper specifically written for this thing.. will have some fun




Mystic-X, working version is on my site. did you try mips hpc pro version?

yes i tryed th version from your site but its not working, now i'm downloading some dll-packages from your site maybe i will have more luck then

and what is about this rom dumper???? didn't really understand what you mean :-?

so after some testing around with many dlls i gave up to install GSPlayer and downloaded the mediaplayer from your website, and this is working very well
plays music in acceptable quality and is also able to play little video clips

now i'm searching for a solitaire game and a audiorecorder......
