Remote Display Options For Windows Mobile 6
I’ve had the distinct pleasure here at the Funlab to oversee the reviews for 2 solutions available for displaying and controlling a Windows Mobile 6 device using a PC.
Sadly, ActiveSync Remote Display, one of the Mobile Developers Powertoys from way way back in 2002, won’t support WM6 at all. And I haven’t heard any plans to update it whatsoever.
Stay tuned for those reviews to drop. I’ll also compare them head-to-head in a final shootout.
Any updates on this?!!? I want pocket remote display (or it’s replacement)!!!

Solution is as follows:
1. Install Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys.
2. Copy C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys\ActiveSync_Remote_Display\devices\wce400\armv4t\cerdisp2.exe and C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys\ActiveSync_Remote_Display\devices\wce400\armv4t\KillProc.exe to \Windows on the mobile device.
3. Run ActiveSync Remote Display on the PC and click OK to the error.
4. Choose Yes when the mobile device asks you if you want to run cerdisp.exe

This worked for me too, but I had to use the files inside the smartphone directory instead.
Worked on a ATT Tilt.

Worked perfectly on my Vodafone 1615 (HTC TynII).

Just wanted to confirm the instructions worked as is on my tilt. My screen broke yesterday and I wanted to get some info off it before its repaired. If you reboot and can remember the steps to unlock the phone, you just need to do this and press the key next to the green phone button in order to run the requested program. Works like a charm!

Worked for me on both Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard) and Cingular 8525 (HTC Hermes). I put the two files from the arm4t folder into the device’s Windows folder. Gives an error box at the beginning and then again when the remote display is closed, but it still seems to work fine.
