When I try to run loki on my AT&T 8525 running windows mobile 6 (pocket pc version), the lokimobile.exe exits with the following error message:
LokiMobile.exe

Inappropriate?Same problem, on an AT&T Tilt (8925) under WM 6.1. Same results if I downgrade to WM 6.0. :(

Inappropriate?Apparently Loki doesn't work on Windows Mobile 6.0. Unfortunately, the website doesn't indicate a Loki what version of Loki is currently available, or when we can expect a working version for Windows Mobile 6.

Inappropriate?I actually managed to get my hands on the actual pre-release version of AT&T's Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM for the AT&T Tilt/TyTN II, and the Loki app does start up and initializes, although it doesn't background itself, which is really annoying in and of itself (because it gets killed when you exit the app). I had previously tried it on a hacked-together ROM from a different HTC phone.
It still doesn't update the website with my location, though, which is what someone else was reporting with Windows Mobile 5.0:

Using a network sniffer, it doesn't even *try* to update my location. Even better, it just whines and complains that it can't find a Wi-Fi connection. I had to manually turn on the Wi-Fi radio so it could get a location fix, then turn it off. The alternative is to leave the Wi-Fi radio on -- that's a great idea, if I only want 90 minutes of battery life on my phone. Useless.
I gave up on it. No matter... as soon as the iPhone 2.0 software comes out, there will be dozens of apps just like Loki, and they'll all likely work. :P
(and this is jmat from above; this stupid helpdesk software won't let me sign in under my other account, telling me the account is "Unknown", even though it won't let me register my email address again. grrr... )
