Hi Gurus
I have downloaded .NET CF2 from Microsoft to my PC. How do I install it to my SPV. Its 37MB in size and is a .msi file. Do I install it on my PC and will it install on SPV on next connect ??
All help appreciated.
Asif
Somebody must know from amonst you gurus how to do this.
Dont be shy now.
Install that downloaded msi file onto your desktop PC. If you want to grab it manually the cab file for your PPC is in one of the folders it creates in Program Files. Can't remember which.
Thanx Chunkymonkey
Presumabley, once installed on my PC it will be migrated to my SPV on next connect.
Regards
Asif
When I installed it I made sure that my phone was connected and synced to my pc before installing the msi file to my pc then it did both automatically.
Cheers

I come up with an error when I try to run .exe. I can only run cab files. Is this correct?
.cab files install software, .exe files run those pieces of software once installed.
What is the error message? Try reinstalling it (whatever IT is).
You can normally choose how you install software on your WinMo device. Developers / software companies offer an EXE but you run that from Windows itself and not your WinMo device. That EXE will push the CAB file to your device, normally over ActiveSync, and then the app gets installed on your device automatically from the CAB file.
Alternatively you can often download a CAB-only version of the application. You copy this to your device and run it from Explorer or something similar directly on your device and not from Windows. The app is installed just the same, but does not leave a portion on your Windows computer.
If you've downloaded an EXE from a developer that was intended to be run / installed from Windows, it will not run on your WinMo device.
Hi All Genius Developpers!
As You Already Know, there are said to be Two Types( Exactly Speaking, 3 kind) of .exe files that One could directly be run on Windows Mobile Device and the Other ought to be installed through USB or ActiveSync by PC Manually, this latter type are common and almost of them.
But It's Really awkward and troublesome to connect with PC Every Time, whether with wire or wireless, isn't it!!!???
Then,Why Not Possible to Install .exe file normally installed through PC WITHOUT PC!?
The Genius Developpers HERE Who Marerialized The Method which Enables ROM Flashing Without PC that Had been thought to be IMPOSSIBLE thus far, Could Find Out The Way Installing .exe File Without PC, couldn't They!!!???
Or Veteran Developpers Here Already Know How to Do That and Doing Normally?
Tell me The Reality is!
Isn't There Any Way!?
Course it is posible, beacuse this exe files copy on PPC a cab file.
Only problem is - where the PC have "temp" for this instalation.
If you find it, you will find a cab files to install this programs/games on your PPC.
At least I think so, because once I did so.
My current programinformation
operativsystemversion: 5.2.21869.
Manilaversion: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM version: 1.66.413.2 (76641) SVE
IS the above old versions or new?
I have dowloaded some apps and other things for my HTC HD2.
Htc Flashlight, artemis, htc hd2 tweaks and apps, and more.
How do I install these apps and tweaks?
Where do I put them on the phone, in which folder?
How do I install them?
Do I have to update ROM or something else?
I have activesync on both my phone and pc.
I have no idea how to do, and the Q&A doesnt help. I know pretty much about windows pc use, but im a totally newb when it comes to mobilephones, I dont even know what manila, or ROM is :O
If they are cab files (ie *.cab), just save them to the device in any folder and "click" on them to install. (c0-y the files via USB or via microSD card)
You will be prompt to install either on device or microSD.
Cheers.

Welcome Silver. Cookies home tab & Cookies home tab editor are the apps you should start with. They will totally revolutionise the way your phone looks and works! Before you download them to the phone, you have to install NET3.5 framework. Download these three apps to your computer, then connect your phone via the usb it came with and select disc drive option and press done on the phone. Copy & paste or drag/drop these files into the program files folder on the new disc drive icon in your my computer window. Click the safely remove icon on the task bar and disconnect your phone from the pc. Now click the window icon on the phone, and scroll to the file explorer icon and press it. Click on NET3.5 and install it to the device when prompted. Do the same with CHT & Editor and be prepared to say WOW!!! Post here if you have any problems.

this is the name of the file: dotNetFx35setup. is it the right one?

Sir, you don't need to run/install Net Framework from your device, but you must run it from your PC via Active Sync.
I cant run the installation file _setup in the NET3.5 folder?

First open the windows market and install any free game which require dotnet, by this process your dotnet will be installed and after that install all the above mentioned applications....

Thanks for the info Kurt. I wasn't even aware of the fact I didn't need to install NET3.5 on my phone? It's on there anyway, and I'm having no problems whatsoever. I'll be sure to include that info in any further advice I give.

Well you go on the website I give up earlier, or do a research on Google fore Net Framework. you download it to your computer, and you connect your device with USB to your PC. you will see the window of ActiveSync on your screen (your pc trays to connect to your mobile device)
run the Net Framework application (.exe) from your PC. follow the steps, that's it.

Did you manage to get the NETCF3.5.CAB on your phone? I've done some digging, and you CAN install it on your phone. Connect the phone via usb and select the disk drive option from the phone screen and press done. Then go to my computer and click on the removable drive icon. Double click on program files icon and copy the NETCF3.5.CAB into this folder. Disconnect the phone from the computer, and press the windows icon on your phone. Scroll to file explorer icon and press it. Go to the top of the page and select the storage card. Press program files and find the net cab. Press it and follow the instillation process and it should install.

I think I know what the problem is now, I have Windows Mobile Device Center, instead of activesync, should I uninstall Mobile devi... and install activesync instead?

I don't see the different between this two?
Just run on PC through Activesync, not in activesync

Activesync is for XP only, mobile devie center is the "ActiveSync" for Vista and Windows 7.
Functionality is equal (although perhaps when UAC active, one needs admin rights for full functionality - just guiessing about that though-)
You cannot run from activesync/mobile device center.
steps to follow:
1) Connect your phone to your computer
2) make sure you have partnership (even guest partnership is ok) betwwen phone and PC
3) Download the MS .net Framework from here and save it on your computer (eg in c:\tmp)
4) Run the downloaded package on your PC.
5) After running on PC, follow steps on your phone (if any)
It does not get any simpler...

Thanks for that Wilco. I installed the NETCF on my device, but I've not had any issues as yet? Mental note made for future/current advice. P.S. Sorry for doubting you Kurt.
Well I have been trying to have WP7 on my HD2 since a month, and although I have been successfull in burning this ROM and update it until 7403, I was not able to move further.
Whatever I tried it resulted in one or the other error.Both Zune and WPUdateCabsender failed.
At last I was able to successfully run the WPUCS as below.
Normally all cab files are zipped/rarred available at xb0xMods site.These files once zipped add some attribute once zipped.
So, here are the steps to successfully use update ca sender.
1. Create folder WP7 in C: drive and copy the files in update cab sender folder here.
2. Unzip/Unrar the cab files to WP7 folder
3. Open Command Prompt (in Admin Privilege).
4. Go to C:\WP7
5. Type attrib -A -S -H -R *.*
6. Stop any Virtual Device drivers like MagicISO, or Virtual PC.
7. Run WPUCS successfully.
This helped me to upgrade from 7392 directly to 7720 in one shot.
Also note that even if the command prompt says error and stops after restarting the device, the device will get into connectorscreen mode.
During this the Device actually updates the device, so do not try to remove battery or reset, wait for an hour until the process is completed.
Note: The only issue is during updating the device gets overheated, and sometimes it gets stuck in Magldr screen, only then restart/reset the device.
