:twisted: Hello,
I'd like to remove, delete, destruct, smash this stupid and totally useless file from the WM player. It's so irritating.....
Any ideas???
Regards.
Frederic.
You need to delete the file wm_start.wma in the windows directory.

Hi,
I hope i'm not the only one having this problem.
When I lunch PPC 2003 File Explorer, it doesn’t show any folders in My Device, just a blank screen :shock:
The file explorer worked well when I first installed PPC 2003 4.00.05 but I guess one of my programs I installed after did a bug.
Anny ideas??
Cheers,

If you tap "open", then type in "windows" for examples, does it open the windows folder?
No and none of the buttons in the botom (My device, Storage card, NetworkShare) are responding to the action.
realy strange :?
if it worked once before but now all of the #$% does not, you could try looking for the .exe for file explorer using another file explorer app like total comander and the .dlls and delete them (may have to rename or overwrite then delete) upon a soft reset ROM should put back the defualts knowing they are missing. I haven't tryed this with the 2003 OS so only try this as a last resort before you revert to a hard reset incase it @#$%'s up your machine. Hmm now that I think about this I'm not sure that will do it. I theory it should but keeo in mind I'm just trying to trick the OS you most likely will have t Hard Reset. If it's never worked..don't know
I have been reading lots of posts on the forum and got so far but now I'm stuck.
I have an XDAII and have managed to unlock and unhide the extended rom. now I can access the extended rom while XDAII is in the cradle.
I understand how I can add cab files to it and will be using the configcreator tool to edit the config.txt file.
The problem I have is; all the pockekpc software I have, is on my computer and I have only ever installed it through activesync the normal or official way. When ever I have tried to put the files directly on my phone and click on them I always get the messeage this is not a valid pocket pc application..... or something like that.
So how do I convert the software files I have on my computer to cab files so I can include them in the extended rom? :shock: ? :?:
To most of you guys this must seem like a nuby question sorry :roll: , but I can't seem to find the answer on the forum.....
Is there a tool I can use or a program that I can use to make useable cab files?
Also just a though when I install programs via activesync does my computer convert the files to cabfiles and then automatically transfer them to my device? if so can I somehow copy the cabfiles from the temporary location on my computer :?:
A step by step guide would be helpfull but any help would be appreciated :?
Thanks in advance

Some 'high-end' software will leave a copy of their cab files on a specific directory (i.e. you have a choice of choosing). Those you can just go to the directory and copy it. If you do not know what I'm talking here, nevermind
Anyway, for normal simple software, they will most probably extract themselves to temporary directory. Example
C:\Documents and Settings\'yourWindowsUserName'\Local Settings\Temp\
where 'yourWindowsUserName' is your username for the PC. My guess would be, try to search for *.cab files in your temp directory (i.e. as the above dir) before you install your software. THEN, start your software installation, and do a search again on the 1st setup screen, see if you are lucky And try to do another search after you're done with the setup.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for that I'll have a go.

I managed to edit my extended rom! 8)
I was able to add the cab files from tom tom navigator 3 and it installs them perfectly after a hard reset!
The only issue I have, when I run Tom tom for the first time after a hard reset I have to keep entering the activation code. Not really a major issue more of a pain.
Wonder if anyone knows how to get it to enter the activation code automatically :?: Bat file or something :?:
This sites really helped me with my tinkering I think its about time to donate
Thanks for all the help guys

Hi :
Here after what I do with succes :
When installing the application from ActSync, you must select "Storage Card" instead deffault location to install.
Then, you have to cancel the installation process before the progress bar on your PPC's screen ends.
A dialog box will ask if you're sure to abort the process.
At this stage, you go to storage card throught your PC Explorer, and you'll find the cab file there.
You save it away.
This cab file on the storaqe card will be automatically removed when you confirm that you really want cancel the installation process on the PPC's screen.
Or...
Go to c:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync folder in your desktop and you can find there more cabs. Or simply find all the *.cab files on your HDD and you'll be surprised.
Thanks for this I will check out both methods
Does anyone know what the best freeware tool for modifying the cabfile is? and where I can download it :?:
Thanks for the help

I think,that everyone here knows only WinCE Cab Manager from OCP Software. But this is commercial,but...on internet is everything...
Hi,
I have two similar problems that I think stem from something in the OS that prevents a normal user (without a hack) from deleting ANY FILES from the Windows folder (is this because it is in the ROM?).
1. I want to delete the WMA file that produces the stupid tiger roar when the Cingular 8525 is soft reset. Very annoying in the middle of a meeting! I found the WMA file, but I am not allowed to delete it.
2. I stupidly moved some fonts from Windows XP into my Font folder on the 8525 that turned out not to work right, and now I want to delete them and can't.
Is there a hack that allows the user to over-ride whatever safety feature brings up the "Cannot delete____________: There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination may in in use" when you try to delete something from the fonts file?
Thanks so much for any help!!
you can't delete it, but it can be overwritten.
Over-writing files in Windows Folder
Thanks Olipro. I would be happy to over-write the annoying growling sound that happens at every soft reboot. How would I do that?
try the wiki instead...

and look for this title...
Disable/change the startup animation or sound
Thanks-resolved!
Thanks Shogun Mark,
I did the hacks and over-wrote the unneeded files and I'm in great shape. Got some additional help on some other hacks too from the forum you recommended. Problems solved.

Can someone please use Total Commander and copy the whole folder
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila from the Sprint Touch Pro
I need the whole Manila folder please copy, zip and reply with the file upload if you can.
I need this because i accidentally deleted the registry folder now touchflo will not start.
---------
STEPS:
---------
You can get to the registry files using total commander
first open and go to \\plugins
then follow the directory below
HKLM\Software\HTC\
when you are there click on the folder called Manila
go to file and click copy/move
then a window will popup. click the button that says "tree"
and direct it toward your memory/storage card
then click OK and then copy.
THEN after that. you can just zip that registry folder and upload it
Pleaz & Thanx
Here you go. Now maybe you can do me a favor. I just deleted the two folders out my sprint tp music folder for the tf3d music player. I need those if you could help. I have a post up now
tell me the directory (where it is located) and sure. i will help you
and also, thankz 4 the files
The two subfolders where in the music folder. Gearsetup.exe is in the same folder. Each subfolder also had a song and album cover art in it. I can't believe what a slip of a finger can do when you are in a file explorer.
Hi everyone
I want copy and delete some files to windows folder, but I don't know how can I handle it ?!?!!?
My PPC is Xperia X1i
My Rom is 826x
I there any application for this action?
thanks ...
Most files in \windows are in ROM, so they cannot be deleted. You can copy things using programs like Resco File Explorer or TotalCommander on your phone.
