Dell Axim X5 Pocket PC,, a 15 year old toy like PDA, ever consider asking dell on this relic device? or Verifone? here is DELL. look here, last question here, ended in 2012.... deadsville city. https://www.dell.com/community/forums/searchpage/tab/message?advanced=false&allow_punctuation=false&q=Dell%20Axim%20X5%20Pocket%20PC

For x5, you will need either cf wifi card or sd wifi card. If wifi network hotspot is free and internet access is allowed (check with your college's network administrator for information), all you need is be in the range, turn the wifi on and connect to it (there maybe several security settings you have to do on the axim and these can also be obtained from network admin). For paid hotspot, you will be redirected to enter username and password when you ty to access internet.

The main terminal in the centre, which is labelled dell is the 5 way navigation button. And the small button which is to the immediate left of the navigation button is the four application button. and to the bottom right is the audio speaker. The button which is on the top of the device is the back-lit power button. Its charge status will be displayed.And now coming to the backside, above the battery slot cover is the main battery lock. Slide and hold the lock to unlock the position and remove the battery using the stylus. Stylus is located towards the side of the device. It can be used to go to the location where you want to go or you can type or write notes. now, on the other side( the side opposite to which stylus is present) secure digital card slot, scroll dial, voice record button and reset button are present. These are the functions of the terminalsHope this helped you :)Now start using the battery.

Look on the back and see what model it is, there are over 5 different Axim's.

I purchased a VeriFone 11 Mbps 802.11b Wireless Compact Flash Adapter card for my Axim X5. I put the disc and the wifi card in my laptop and I can get on the internet. But can't seem to get it going in the Axim. It always reads "Unrecognized Card". Tried ActiveSynce and putting the drivers on a different Flash card. No luck..

I had the same problem and I got it to work by placing a paper just above the Dell button and the touch screen. There seem to be some part of the metal cover that shorts out the touch screen and causes that problem. Some other people have recomended taking the unit apart and placing electrical tape in that area. Hope this works for you. Good luck.

Install ActiveSync on your desktop computer, then connect the device to the computer with the USB cable.

take a credit card or bisiness card and slide it in between the edges of the screen gently this should fix the problem if not open it and clean the touchscreen contacts

that stip problem so go service sender and change the stip it around cost of 8-10 dollars

ok, i see your problem.You could clean the screen of your pda using a business card. Gently, wipe the corners of the screen. This is the best way as unresponsive screens occur due to lack of attention as dust migt be trapped under the screen.Hope this works.GOOD LUCK

I've heard some keep aligning and after a time it eventually works. 200 to 300 times.

I tried 7 then took the advice of a techie that said to gently twist it like wringing out a wet rag. Put hands on the top and bottom and gently twist back and forth.

It worked for me.

Be gentle

well a memory card has nothing to do with it, maybe your battery isnt working, or you just need to consult dell

i have samsung sgh s3310 mobile.i am missing mobile tracker code.today i want change code.pls reply hurry....i am waiting your answare....

you have deleted or misplaced the codecs for these videos. you will have to either reinstate the codecs or you can use other applications like coreplayer for playing the video

the c.d. has your sync software and outlook express, you can download activesync(google it) that should get you started. hope this helps.

I had the same problem. I could solve this playing with the parameter on the power or screen setting.
i think i choose auto while connected. sorry i cant give more details it happened a while ago and i dont have the pda.
try play with the settings :)
