帶種的才來

Nikon 的新機 D7000 自從有消息傳出後，由於功能強大，頗有在 N 家機種中有以下犯上的感覺，網路上好多人都在等它正式發表。連我自己同事都有人苦苦等著它上市要來升級一番。

結果，幾個月過去後，昨天終於正式公布台灣的售價。結果價格高不可攀，Mobile01 上罵聲不斷。同時，PCHOME 的購物中心也正式上架了。

不過，它的標題卻是：「帶種」新機預購

究竟是在說國祥（代理商）定這個價格很帶種呢？還是敢用價種價格買的人很帶種？

不管怎樣，至少買方跟賣方其中有一邊很帶種就是了～

E220 HSDPA Study

There are three devices will appear in system when E220 USB device plug-in (with driver installed).

1. Mass storage device (include driver, application and manual)
2. 3G modem device (COM)
3. Mobile Connect PC UI Interface device (COM)

There is a application called “Mobile Connect” will be installed with 3G modem driver. Which will use the 3th device in above list to communicate with 3G chip. (cause the 3G modem device has been locked by windows connection manager when connected, the application need another interface to get statistic from 3G chip)

MSMQ Auto Installation

There are several ways to install (enable) MSMQ automatically.

The major issues are:

1. The way to install MSMQ in different OS version are different.
2. The supported components of MSMQ are different in different OS.

In below detail procedure for install MSMQ, you will see I enable different MSMQ components for different OS version. Those components are tested for me to use. If you need more components, you need to add them in command line, or un-attend file to enable them.

Sign your application for HKLM/Init

I had made a test application in [HKLM\Init and database status] for trying to figure out the database status in boot up sequence. And as I said in that post, the application run fail when I try to put it earlier than services.exe (launch60).

And I found a solution about the issue: signature.

I still cannot find any document mention about this limitation, but after I sign my test application with my develop certificate, the application can be run at anywhere I wanted.

Using certification in VS2008 project property

I already describe the way to create, install and sign application use test certification in [Create and use test certificate]. And I found that VS2008 already provides the ability in project property.

You still need to create your test certificate using makecert.exe first. You can follow the steps to create it. If you follow the sample, the certificate should be installed in user store already, and it’s name is “Tim’s Dev Authority”.

Research on locked resources

I am keep looking at how to stop service, drivers and applications to release resources (file, database) to make backup & restore process more smoothly.

This post is a note of the testing result, it will keep updating when anything was found.

Mobile Service Development

Notes of study “Implement a Network Service on Windows CE”. I think this article is a good start point of learning mobile service development.
