I uninstalled/removed a program with file explorer, add/remove program in settings and also tried it with active sync. For some reason it is still showing up in my programs and I can still open it! Help!
try a soft reset after removal, that should do the trick
program removal
that didn't work.

in windows\startmenu\programs the shortcuts are located
if you look at the properties of those programs you have uninstalled you can see where the program is located and you can delete it yourself if you like
Thanks, it seemed to do the trick. By the way, I don't really know how to manage my memory. It seems to be getting used up rather quickly. Is there some way I can move certain programs to a storage card or something to free up memory but still have full function of the software? I'm new to this. Thanks
well when you install the programs it ask you if you want them to install at the default location (that is if you install them using activsync)
if you say no you get the option of installing them to your sdcard
if you want to try it with already installed programs you could try
to move them and change the target in the shortcut
just make sure you recall where you moved them from if it dont work
and you like to move them back to get them working again
After deleting the file I was having problems with from windows I now am getting an error message: Cannot execute/Windows/StartMenu/Programs/IRKeybd.exe
I deleted the file, I thought. How do I fix this. Its messing up my imate.
when do you get that error ?
because if you get it after a softreset there may be a shortcut to it in windows\startup
I get the error all the time. It will come up randomly. There are usually about 14 pop up windows notifying me of the error. I looked for a short cut but don't know if I'm looking in the right place.
i've been trying to install a few exe files on the mogul recently. if i put them on the sd card and try to install from there nothing happens. if i try to install them through activesync it says that its not a valid Win32 application. what am i doing wrong any ideas?
i'm running the dcd 3.0 rom
why dont yu atleast tell us the names?
all the gps launcher programs are exe files, i've tried 4 of them and can't get any of them to work.
Have you tired running them on your windows computer when activesync is connected to your device? Some software like to clutter up your desktop as well as your ppc device
This is one of the things that really drives me crazy. I dont understand why ppc apps need to be distributed in exe files when it makes it much more difficult to install them.. things like no computer, no sync, runs linux or something else etc. I just wanna put them on my sd card or download them without the need of a computer.
sorry just ranting a bit

yes, i've tried that. the only thing i can think is maybe its a vista problem? i'm trying run the exe file through windows mobile device center (what they call activsync in vista)
that could be the problem i'd assume, its the only thing i can think of is that its a problem with vista maybe?
well i have AstroGPSLauncher.exe and that had to be run OFF OF the device NOT on my pc. you can find it here
Now if you want other launchers, here's a thread that talks about a medley of it.

"--How to use this AstroGPSLauncher ---
--Copy AstroGPSLauncher to your Main Memory
\AstroGPSLauncher\AstroGPSLauncher.exe
(YOu can copy AstroGPSLauncher to SD Card but you need to change the path inside the shortcut if you use)"
Bingo! RTFM
AstroGPS does nothing stand alone, it is meant to be used with a shortcut that launches it in combination with your fav. GPS program. Clicking the exe directly will result in nothing on your screen.
i found this in the Kaiser Forum, i tried it and im loving it, for me a little easier and for me then user customization (uc), much more user friendly for me. restores all my settings, email setting, speed dials, i can select were to install cab automatically (storage or main), i can run it at anytime, not just at boot up

Works on my Touch Pro just fine. Indagroove has a ROM for the touch pro & the diamond that is sashimi compliant. Install the ROM, install sashimi, reboot & off you go!
ROMs don't need to be SASHIMI compliant. You set it up on your SD card and just launch it directly from there. It'll automatically set up anything you have configured. It' a brilliant service! And it deserves a link to the official site/thread, too:
http://www.winmo-experts.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4
Be sure to watch the videos - they show you exactly how to do your initial setup.
Any one has al ink to that app or can e-mail it to me?

Isn't this forbidden by the mod/owner?
Since I can't find Sashimi anywhere, is there an alternative stand-alone solution to CABs multi-installs?
I attached SASHIMI for you. I am using it for more than a year now and if/when you set it up for your taste you can automate almost everything after a new ROM flash
Or just try UC Net. It is better as Sashimi and works also on new ROM's.
Sashimi better than other customization systems
Though Sashimi stopped development I can say it is the best!!
I think people did not give time to understand the way its files work and thats why they prefer other systems that do the half work.
Other systems donot put folders or files in any device directory, they dont install mortscripts, they donot add whole files to documents folder they dont execute .reg files and makisu xml with email and wifi settings.
I wrote these lines just to tell that Bengalin did a clever brilliant job though it did not widely adapted from the phone communities.
Maybe, if people want to try it, I will write a tutorial for its basic functions and maybe Bengalin is going to come again with a new version.

The above mentioned program does all this you mentioned, plus creates automatically shortcuts individuallt or from whole folders just with a simple text file command, moves or deletes files etc etc. You can also create numbered folders with files, exes, mscrs, reg etc, which are processed one after the other. At the beginning you can choose what folders should be processed. The only thing i miss from Sashimi is the resume feature, but as it never fails during installation i really don't need it.

There is a resume feature in Sashimi.If the installation fails at some point and you restart the device and run sashimi again, then it asks you to resume or not.
Also there is no need for text file command for adding a shortcut.You just copy your tree in the root folder of auto sashimi and then the file or shortcut appears where you want it.For example, if you want to add a shortcut in start menu you copy the tree in auto sashimi root folder like this:Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games/BubbleBreaker.lnk
But how you move or delete files?

Opera Mini CAB for Windows mobile 5/6/6.1
UPDATED 14-May-2009
Updated to Opera Mini4.2 Buid 13918 (20090303)
New JBed 20090216.5.1
two seperate versions for Hi-Resolution and Low-Resolution screens.
Large fonts for VGA devices
Small fonts for QVGA devices
I created this cab to use in my Himalaya & Diamond I keep this in the ExtROM (SD Card) so that I don’t have to re install this every time I hard reset or upgrade my ROM through new builds.
This CAB will install the following software and tweaks:
1. Jbed Java-VM (Latest)
2. Opera mini 4.2
3. Signing Opera mini as trusted(So that annoying confirmation prompt to network
connection and to Saving/uploading files is removed.
4. Direct shortcut for opera mini in Start->Programs->Internet.
Shortcut for Jbed under Start->Programs->Accessories
5. Nice opera icon for the shortcut & to be used in the today launchers.
Pros:
Traditionally to do this all you had to transfer several files and do several taps and clicks on your PPC & PC, but with this you can do them all by just tapping the CAB.
You can add this cab to your Extended ROM or add the files as an OEM to your ROM in cooking, so after each hard reset your favorite browser is available right there. You can simply synchronize the bookmarks in two taps.
You don’t need to install any other JVM, ‘cos this already installs Jbed, the best full screen JVM that also supports soft keys. Try some Nokia s60-v3 games on it…
NOTE: Make a backup of the folder “APPDB” which may either in your Jbed installation folder. If you wish to remove this application and want to restore the previous apps, simply restore this folder.
Happy Installation….
If you are already using Jbed and hundreds of other JAVA software too, you may prefer the tweaks but not to loose the other softwares. If that’s the case you can follow the steps I have described and apply them and copy the Cab in to your Extended ROM so that it will only take effect after your next reset.
Signing Opera mini As trusted…
One of the only negatives of using Jbed, over Jeodek, used to be that any time an application wanted to access to the Internet, Jbed would ask twice if you want to allow the action. It will also forget this permission next time you ran the application, so you would have to give permission every time you ran a Midlet that tried to access the Internet. Thank GOD, a work around for this annoyance has been found!
1.) Copy the file \windows\appdb\selector.utf to your PC
(make sure backup this file first in case something goes wrong!)
2.) Remove read-only attribute
3.) Extract the file “sign_operamini.exe”
from my zip to the same folder and run it.
4.) It will patch the selector.utf and create a backup too.
5.) Now replace the selector.utf file in the pocket PC with the patched.
6.) DONE
Making a direct shortcut to Opera Mini (or any other Java Midlet)
Since Opera Mini is a Java Midlet application, one annoying aspect is that to run Opera Mini, you must first run the Java Midlet, tap on the "Applications" list item, then tap on the "Opera Mini 4 beta" item. Luckily, some users out there have figured out how to create a shortcut that launches Opera Mini (or any other Java app) directly. Assuming you haven't installed any other Java apps, you need to create a shortcut file (e.g., opera.lnk) pointing to
("\windows\jbed.exe -run s0_")
The magic portion is the number after the the letter "s" in the shortcut target. This is the list position of the Java Midlet in the Jbed application list. If you install Jbed as a fresh install and then directly install Opera Mini, just use the number "0" to refer to Opera Mini ("\windows\jbed.exe -run s0_"). If you install another MIDlet (after Opera Mini), its index will become 1, then the next installed Midlet will have an index of 2, and so on. The last installed MIDlet will have the last index.
So go to any text editor and create the link, the replace the extention TXT with LNK.
A pre-made shortcut file can be found here.
Code:
28#"\windows\jbed.exe" -run s0_
Making a icon for Opera Mini shortcut
I have created a icon dll file to be used as the shortcut icon. Copy “ Opera_Icon.dll “ to “\windows\appdb\” folder and add the following part to the end of your shortcut link.
?\Windows\Appdb\opera_icon.dll,0
So the link should be like this,
Code:
28#"\Windows\jbed.exe" -run s0_?\Windows\Appdb\opera_icon.dll,0
I have also attached a .ico file to be used in other launchers.
Opera Mini 4 on Windows Mobile as Default Browser
XDA-Devs forum member shlomki has released the hacks in CAB format so that they’re very easy to install. These CABs are for ARM processors and for Pocket PC only (not smartphones). You can try them too..
• WM5 OperaMiniAsDefaultBrowser - WithoutSelectionDialog.cab
• WM6 OperaMiniAsDefaultBrowser - WithoutSelectionDialog.cab
• WM6 OperaMiniAsDefaultBrowser - WithSelectionDialog.cab
NOTE:
Using the 'WITH SELECTION DIALOG" cab, you get the dialog box to select either IE or Opera Mini as the browser to open the link each time you click on a link in a email, contact or in the messenger.

Is is legal to post a cab installer for Opera mini 4.1 here? I don't wanna get banned....!
The cab will install the following softwares & tweaks...
1.Jbed java VM,
2.OM4.1
3.Signing OM (so that annoying confirmation prompt to network connection & saving files is removed)
4.Opera mini dirrect shortcut in Start->Programs->internet (so that you dont need to open the midlet manager & then click OPERA.
5.Nice opera icon for the shortcut & to be used in today launchers.
Pros:
Traditionally to do this all you had to transfer several files and do several taps on screen. Now you can do them all in one tap.
You can add this in the extended_rom or even cook in your rom to make OM4.1 available through hard resets automatically.
You dont need to install other JVMs after your hard resets, 'cos this cab already installs Jbed.
Cons:
You man have to re install your other java files if you are already using Jbed as your current midlet manager.

So, Opera Mini 4.1 CAB for Windows mobile?
Dude,
Waiting for you to post your tweaked cab files. Appreciate your help
Mohan
yes please!
Since you haven't tried to hack apart the EXE, and since it's free for download, I think it should be fine. Although, just to be sure, I'd host it somewhere other than on this site, so Opera can't try and destry XDA-Devs...
Is opera Mini better than Opera Mobile??

That depends
Opera Mobile is a stand alone, high memory high bandwidth program that renders web pages as the are. Opera Mini runs within a Java program and renders pages for better display on a small screen. Opera mini also has much smaller bandwidth and memory usage.
Begging you to post it, it would make my life allot easier.
Opera Mini also synchs its bookmarks with Opera 9.5 beta on the desktop. For me that's a big plus point.
Waiting for this tweaked Opera Mini cab is almost as exciting as waiting a new L26 or Dutty Diamond rom, lol.
A howto to remove the security message when Opera Mini tries to connect to the Internet would be also fine!
I have make this from a half year for German Users but now without Esmertec Jbed, because Esmertec have send a mail and say that this is not legal.

Two questions, do these cabs enable you to do simillar things indicated in the first post in this thread? I'm not home to use google translator to interpret what's being said referring those cabs. Also, can you post these cabs here because I did notice that one of those cabs is just over 3MB. I'm assuming that it's a tweaked Opera Mini 4.1.

It's v2.1 (20070802). I prefer that version, because if I use 3.1 (20080222) the cab will be over double the current size. When the new Jbed is installed in the SD card (which is not possible in the older versions) I got some problems with Opera Mini. As the new Opera mini frequently access the file system but not in a constant manner, it freezes for about 5sec once a while. This is because it cannot access the SD cards as fast as the main memory. This is not there if you use a expensive, good memory card. But most of us Sri Lankans (asians) go for cheape onces more...
ok, thanks for the post. You posted two cabs, so which one do I have to install if I want Opera Mini as my default browser and it creates an icon in my ppc folder? The opera mini cab or the Opera Mini Tweaks cab. I'm under the impression that I dont have to create any mortscripts, etc, and hoping all I need to do is install a cab. thanks in advance.
This is bugging the heck out of me.
On my WM 6.1 roms this fix is implemented but i have yet to see it in the smartphones. Is there a way?
I would like to keep an install cabs directory on my wife's micro sd but i can't seem to find a way to stop it from deleting the cabs after i install them.
(I may just not be wording my searching correctly but any help would be appreciated)
Mine stay put after install. Check your registry key named nDynamicDelete @ HKLM\Software\apps\Microsoft Application Installer\
Mine has a value of 2. You can also use CabInstl instead and have the option to select where to install and when to delete or not.

Just make your cabs "read only" and then they won't get deleted. No registry edit required.
