ONLY FOR THE EYES OF THE BEST ONE :wink:
I WANT TO PUT PROGRAMS ON THE EXTENDED ROM.. BUT THE PROB IS THAT THIS APPLICATIONS ARE NOT IN CAB FORMAT...
MAYBE SOMEONE FIND A WAY TO DO IT NICE... I DOWNLOADED THE MAKECAB FROM WINDOWS BUT IS THERE ENOUGH... AND HOW TO INTERACT WITH APPLICATIONS THAT NEED TO BE INSTALL BY THE PC...
REGARDS
Just run from PC, then you can find cab file in Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync. Copy this cab file to PPC and you can install it directly in your PPC.
Thanks Sonadt !!
I try with hack master & tengo keyboard... no one of them put cab in activesync directory.. i found in the install directory of the applications many cabs and some ini with the some name ??? and how to do when you need to patch or enter the serial ???
Hoping to read you soon...
Regards
well i was trying to use it but after installing a few apps i ran out of memory already
i remember reading somewhere i can delete the cab files that activesync sends through when it installs software
where is that folder located? i cant seem to find the post anymore and i cant find the files on my ppc =(
thank you
mmm i also wanna now this i'm always running out of memory
ahh i found it i think...after i went back to 1.50i =p
its application data/volatile
there's only some empty folders there, or are the files hidden ?
to be honest...i have no idea =)
but i was using tweak.net 3.9.1 and found the temp dir to be there
in "appmgr" file... when you load any file uninstall file's is locating there...
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...
I was looking for info to create my own cab file for adding multiple registry entries at one time. I found cabwiz, but that is for PPC 2003, after some reading I found Visual Studio 2005 but that looks to be expensive MS product.
Is there any way, or a step by step guide somewhere to create a cab file out of a notepad file containing registry entries?
Sorry I am a noob, but couldnt find this. I just did all the reading about the SuperCID and SIM unlock and that worked great on my 8525.
Search for Makecab.exe
and have a look at this
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa459020.aspx
For a very easy way, download WinCE Cab Manager.

Hi,
I'm now upgrading for those Roms who dont have any keyboard installed ( I have 16 keys niki), so I can install it from the .cab that DubinBJK provides. So, while that keyboard have the backspace issue, i wondering if anyone can make (or have) the .cab of the keyboard with the old EzInput (v 1.0 I think). Is the same that is in the Tom Godon Rom.
Appreciate you help,
TM

Can you help me please? I have done search but really cant find.
I found it.
It's from Niki (20keys). it works (i have tested it)
If you wanna use it on 16key version, you need to change keymapping files (Just put it to windows folder)

Yes, I want to use on 16 key version, you say I need to change the keymapping files putting it on windows folder? But if a .cab it's to install, how do I do that?
Install it, and put keymapping files to windows folder
P.S. Actually i have extracted this cab by SkTools and puted all files (except keymaping) to windows folder.
I you want, i can extract it for you

The problem is, I really dont know which one are the keymapping files...
So, if you can help me I really appreciate
keymapping files is several .txt files
They contains keymapping info
Just replace it by files from original rom
Have you checked the cab in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342351?

With this one works very good by now
Both cab's were tested in Lilly 1.3 Mannila2D NO KEYBOARD.
Can anyone make (or share if you have it already) a new cab for the second (no need of moving .txt files and import registry file)?
