Dvorak SIP is not shown in some devices like Pidion

Question

I have built and deployed Dvorak SIP sample from C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Samples\PocketPC\CPP\ATL\dvoraksip location. The sample successfully deploys and registers and when I click on Dvorak from the SIP icon at the middle of the tray it is opened in Windows Mobile 5 emulator and some other devices except Pidion BIP-1300-GSM which is running Windows Mobile 5.0.

What is the reason?

I should mention that it is always deployed and registered successfully.

UPDATE

I put DebugMessage in all of the methods.

When I Deploy Dvorak, methods in dvoraksip.cpp are called on device like what happens on Emulator.

When I click the icon in tray in Emulator methods in dvorak_implementation.cpp are called correctly but nothing is called on Pidion device.

I don know what possibly went wrong on your side. There are some pitfalls when using this WM653 sample on Windows Mobile 5. When you switch to WM5 in VS8 configuration manager, the deployment settings have to been adjusted:

Do you have WM5 SDK installed within VS2008 too?

In VS8 ensure that you link ATL statically:

Here is my updated VS2008 project/solution of DVORAK SIP sample using WM5 SDK: http://www.hjgode.de/temp/dvoraksipVS2008_WM5SDK.zip

I tested that on a WM5 device (no Pidion, an Intermec CK60 running WM5):

I have seen that you posted the same question at social.msdn and who knows where too. If the pidion still does not work like a WM5 device, you should consider changing the model.

As an alternative you may use Richard Boling's NumPanel example of a SIP.
