[Q] Two boot CABs - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I installed Android 2.2 froyo Darkstone and was having issues booting into Android, as the phone would go straight to WinMo. So I installed the FD DroidBoot. I then read about jmz Android Dual-Boot which gives the option, and installed that, thinking it would get rid of the previous boot file. However, they are both running on start up, and I want to get rid of the first one, leaving only jmz Android Dual-Boot.
Both were cab files, is there a way to delete the FD DroidBoot so its not on my phone anymore?
Thanks in advance!

You have tried uninstalling the cab right??

I would have, but could not find it in Android. I ended up taking the SD card out and adjusting the registry in WinMo so it would not be included. I also deleted the folder in Program Files in WinMo.
Thanks for the help!

if you installed it in wm then you'd need to uninstall it in mw.......
just changing reg values and deleting files without uninstalling could lead to undesirable results.........
You might want to reinstall then uninstall properly......
You can find it under settings > manage applications........

iam sorry, but this thread made me laugh to tears

Uninstalled/removed program but it's still there

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.

try freeware Remover it should resolve your problem
Where can I find and how do I use the program you are referring to?

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.

DevPrep (Device Prep)

This is my first contribution to xda-developers.com, and hope that someone finds it useful.
DevPrep (Device Prep) is intended to be a replacement for user customisation using autorun.exe or runcc.exe. It has more options than these tools, and supports the following commands: -
CAB - CAB file installation
CFG - Include another config file for processing
CPY1 - The first part of the copy command, specifying the source file name
CPY2 - The second part of the copy command, specifying the destination file name
DEBUG - (Enable/Disable) Turns debugging on or off, which creates a .log file in the same path as your config file
DELE - Deletes a specified file
ERR - (Enable/Disable) Turns error reporting on or off, so that errors are either displayed in the interface, or ignored
EXEC - Allows an executable to be run, or a CAB file to be installed interactively when used with the HIDE or LOCK commands
HIDE - (Enable/Disable) Allows other applications to take the focus away from the DevPrep tool, to allow user interaction to take place (e.g. interactive CAB installs)
LOCK - (Enable/Disable) The same as the HIDE command, but in reverse (i.e. LOCK: Enable is the same as HIDE: Disable)
RST - Resets the device (should be the last command specified, as DevPrep will not continue processing after this)
XML - Processes XML configuration and provisioning files
The commands are used in the same way as autorun.exe and runcc.exe, (for example "CAB: \Storage Card\myfile.cab") however the spaces between the command and the parameter aren't important.
Rather than cooking DevPrep directly in to the ROM, there is a DevPrepLauncher utility that can be cooked in and launches DevPrep.exe from the storage card. If DevPrep doesn't exist, it just ignores it.
This way if there are updates to DevPrep, the new version can just be copied to the storage card without needing to re-flash.
Both the OEM package for DevPrepLaunch and the CAB file for DevPrep are attached. Install the CAB file to the Storage Card.

Wow!
I was just looking for something like this. I have never used a tool like this before. But the Imagio (my phone) just got HSPL'd. So I am thinking about using something like this. Do you mind a noob question? So- if I set this up, after I flash a ROM or do a hard reset- I could set this up to auto install all my .cabs? Do I need both "DevPrep.cab" and "DevPrepLaunch.zip" what is the difference?

Yep, you can use it to re-install your .cabs. You can also use RunCC.exe or autorun.exe, but I wrote this tool because I had issues with the interactive installations.
You need DevPrepLaunch if you are cooking your own ROM and you want it to start automatically when you do a hard reset.
If you aren't cooking your own ROM, you can just install DevPrep.cab and then run it manually.
Thanks
Thanks for the reply. I am still waiting to flash a ROM. Nothing out yet I am interested in. But when I do I might try this. Is it very complicated to set up? And- what do I do if I set it up on my phone, then flash a new ROM- wouldn't it be wiped off the phone?

Yeah, that's right, it would get wiped after every new flash so you would need to cook the DevPrepLauncher in to your ROM that way it is kept there.
Another option is to just run it manually off the storage card after you hard reset.

Duh to me! It will be on the storage card. Not the device memory. So all of the settings are safe? I mean- after I flash- I would just install it again and run it? I wouldn't have to set it all up all over again?

Yep, that's right. So, for example, the directory structure might look like this: -
\Storage Card\DevPrep\Application\DevPrep.exe <-- The application
\Storage Card\DevPrep\Config.txt <-- The config file with the commands (installing cabs, settings preferences, etc...)
\Storage Card\DevPrep\Installs\myApplication.cab <-- An application you want to install
\Storage Card\DevPrep\Settings\mySettings.xml <-- Some preferences you want to apply
Awesome!!
I just fell off my chair reading your thread. Just after finishing these threads ;
First read this to understand User Customization and filling SDConfig.txt;

tried it...
Hello- I had some time the other day so I sat down to try and figure out the app. I installed on my storage card. Did a soft reset. Ran the app. It went to the "Preparing Device" screen and stayed there for about 30 minutes. Does it take longer than that? I gave up.
I have the HTC Imagio (Whitestone) WinMo 6.5. Custom Rom. But it is very near stock -only removed Sense and Verizon Wireless needless software.
Thanks for any pointers.
Will someone just attach the files to a post here. I hate spending half a day trying to get an 85 kb cab file since rapidshare always thinks I'm downloading another file (probably because of the network I'm on). Thanks.

So after reading your reply it suddenly dawned on me -I have no idea what I am doing. So it is not your app it is me (pretty sure). I thought I would open it and then it would walk me through setting it all up. Now I am thinking that I need to write up a "Config file". No idea how to do that. So I am probably a lost cause. I am guessing you use notepad or something? Anyways -sorry.

not signed with a trusted certificate error - sense fails to load

Hey guys,
I have a HD2 with the following stats:
WM: 6.5
Manilla: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.66.405.2
Radio: 2.06.51.07
My phone works perfectly. Out of nowhere, without having installed any new apps, without a soft reset, nothing at all.
When I click on any quicklink, or any app under the start menu, I get the following error:
"The file ?????? cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists try reinstalling or restorig the file"
??????? = the app or program I am trying to run.
This stops sense from loading. Only WM6.5 will run - without HTC sense.
I get this error for no reason. I have not installed any new software, I have not done a soft reset, nothing. Was using the phone all day and it was perfect. Then bang, I got this.
It has happened before and a hardware reset fixed it.
Does anyone know what on earth is causing it? I have SKcert and Cert2015 installed as I am using some custom icons. Do you think this might be causing it?
I do not want to have to do a hard reset every could of weeks.
This is a joke. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Could be something to do with your SD card....
Have you got a link to something installed on your internal memory you can test...
I had somekind of sense failure once when I took the sd card while the phone was on and no matter what I tried I couldnt get it running....
I might be way off but Its all I can think of Im afraid.....
Re-install framework 3.5...
Had the same issue. first on a kaiser, and recently on my hd2....... what i did was reinstall the .net framework, ie first un install, then re install, and soft reset..... workd perfect.
i see this is an old post, but might come in handy any way.

I have the same problem. can not reinstall anything - "not signed" any other solutions??
Regarding sdcard - it do the same with non stock programs, which are running on internal storage, when there is no SD card inside.
It happened after unsuccessful run of android from SD card
any solutions??

I found the solution Special THANKS to JZ SmartMort
Following simple steps:
1) Download following file: http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
From archive we need only SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe
It allows Registry to be edited from PC.
Run it with working Activesync connection
2) Download Mobile Registry Editor: http://www.zipsoft.ru/catalog/mobile_registry_editor-v1_11.html
Also run with working Activesync connection
3) and modify the following keys to the values listed.
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101b","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001005","4 0")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101a","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001001","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001017","2 4")
It perfectly worked with HD2, but I guess it should work with all WM devices.
FYI, here are some other useful software packages that relax the security.

Could you please explain to me what each of these policies values do, or maybe point me to the thread where I could find out?
I am able to install apps ok, but every time I install a cab, it gives me the
"This application is not from a certified/trusted source, yada yada yada"
message, and I have to choose 'yes' to confirm it and go ahead with the install, not a huge deal but it'd be nice to get around it if some of these will do it.
And when I reboot, especially from Android to WM, alot of the time I get an error from gAlarmReload.exe , even though it doesn't affect gAlarm at all, the alarms still work fine. I just wanna make the s/w security as lax as possible on my phone.
I guess I'm already app unlocked, because I can make registry changes no problem. I have installed sdkcerts and netcf3.5, and have done the reg change to ensure the phone is using 3.5 and not 2.whatever_it_is, among many other reg changes.
But I don't like to go changing reg values if I don't understand what they do, because I'm one of those set-everything-up-manually types, I don't like the backup prog's and I've done a bunch of tweaks already so a HR would kill me...
Thanks for reading my unneccessarily long post, I have Asperger's so I tend to overexplain everything to death, but I guess at least I'm thorough
Thanks, worked perfect on my wife's HD2, as she needs to run stock rom 3.14.
This saved me heaps of figuring out how to do this.
Once again,thanks to all those who try and help on this forum.
Where would be all be without such great contributions !
Thank you.

[Q] Applications not working - Not signed with trusted certificate

This is my first post, so apologies if this is in the wrong place or has been asked before (I have searched and found some answers, but none of these worked)
Basically, last night whenever I tried to use an application on my HTC HD2 I was getting the following error message:
"The file xxx cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one if its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
In searching for the solution, a lot of people are saying that I need to edit the reistry. (Specifiaclly HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies DWord = 0000101a - Change value from 0 to 1)
I have tried downloading the recommended registry editors on the forums (Resco Explorer etc.) but am unable to install because the "program is from an unknown publisher." I click yes to get pass this initial message, like I always have done in the past, and the following is displayed:
Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate."
I have also tried using a program recommended called CeRegistryEditor and using my PC via ActiveSync to edit the registry, but am getting an error message "Access Denied!".
Does anybody know any other way of editing the registry? Am I actually doing the right thing? Are there any security settings that I need to disable to allow CeReistryEditor to edit the registry?
This is really bugging me, I have only been without my apps for about 12 hours throughout the night but it is hard to live without them!! I REALLY don't want to perform a hard reset and will do anything to avoid this!
When I get this I just remove evertyhing to do with it on the phone and re download it (the cab file usually) and it seems to work.
thanks for your reply. I have tried this but when I try and reinstall I am getting the message: Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate.
I think that the security settings have been changed, but I cant see how to change them with editing the registry which I am struggling to do
Can I ask what app you are trying to install? Or is it any app?
Multiple Apps that were running OK yesterday, but not today. I think it is all the apps that I have downloaded from Omarket.... Omarket isnt working either!
Hi,
Any luck on this. I m also facing similar issue after installing Android on my HD2.
I have the exact same issue after running Android from SD card. No application (non-stock ones) are working anymore. Like 3rd party certificates are being blocked or something...
For everyone with this problem, download Mobile Registry Editor and connect your phone to your PC via USB, then start the Editor and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies" and search for the DWord "0000101a" and change the decimal to "1", that will fix your problem. This problem happens to me if I "reboot" while in Android instead of turning the phone completely off and then back on.
Edit: Added link to download.
As a side note, I always did this to mine while running Windows Mobile, then booted Android after fixing the registry.
and when this is not possible
Hi,
i have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card.

Hi,
I also have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card. I have also re-installed the stock rom and the problem still persists. Im also unable to install any reg editors as keep getting the "not signed with a trusted certificate".
I read that a cooked rom may be a solution around this but I liked the set up I had and wanted to keep my original rom so any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lee
Exactly the same problem.
Non-stock programs not working after failed boot of android from SD card, and I'm unable to change any registry entries either. Practically I'm locked out of my phone, just the basic functions working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
if forget where I originally found this link (its on xda some place)
http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
but run this first and you no longer get the access denied when using the mobile registry editor , hope it helps.
I have the same problem, just remove the program that was not working, pull out your memory card , then delete the files in the sd card except the application installer, hard reset your phone, and remember to go to SETTINGS-UPDATES&FEEDBACK-ERROR REPORTING-DISABLE ERROR REPORTING, and turn off your phone, put in the memory card and turn your phone on and install the application one by one, the application installed will work as normal, Good Luck, remember to back up your data before hard reset

[Q] Can't run exe files

Hi everyone,
For some reason, i'm not able to run exe files anymore on my HD2 ... I got error that "can't open a file. Either it isn't subscribed by trusted certification, or can't find part of its component". I tried to run Starcraft, CLRCAD and HaReT from SD card.
I tried to find cause but i was unsuccessful. Any ideas?:]
Thank you very much
Try installing BsB tweaks and enabling the 'Allow Unsigned Apps' setting?
Ive come across this same problem after rebooting my HD2 today. Did anyone find a solution? I already have BSB tweaks installed and cant even run it, i get the same error message.
At this point really all i want to be able to do is run PPCPIMBackup so i can backup all my PIM data and then just hard reset this thing and start clean
FYI did some searching on google after my post and came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392087 this fixed my problem. so hopefully it is of use to others that may run into the same problem in the future
