I've got 'CabBatchInstall' on my device, which is useful, as it allows you to install a batch of cabs one by one to your device, after updating the ROM or doing a hard reset. You generate a list by pointing at the directory where you've stored them, and can then edit the text file down to only include the cabs you want to install, rather than the entire contents of the directory you've pointed at. See the application thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407885.
This got me thinking: Is there an app for 'interrogating' your phone to see what you have installed on it at a particular point in time? After all, what you have installed is listed at Settings > Application > Remove Programs > And if there is, or if not, but someone would produce this sort of thing, could it be made to 'talk to' or be an addition to 'CabBatchInstall', so that the list of installed apps is the one 'CabBatchInstall' uses to do the batch install after hard reset or new ROM?
Just so you're aware, I've made similar post to this on the application thread I've linked above.
you could try listing the folders in Windows\AppMgr to a text file - MortScript which should be capable of this
Thanks p107r0, but I'm a complete novice when it comes to programming, mortscript and everything like that.
Oh well, I suppose it was a nice idea...
thats an excellent idea for an app. Sometimes I'll finally have my device set up exactly the way i like but it usually takes me going through and doing alot of installing/uninstalling to figure out what i want to get to that point. Or i'll flash a nee rom and really only want the apps that i had previously. This would prove quite helpful. Before I always had to resort to going to the "remove programs" screen and from there i would just keep scrolling down the list of apps and take screenshots so atleast i would know what they were.

I was bored and curious if I can do it, so here comes short script which lists all the folders in Windows\AppMgr to a text file on storage card,
of course you'll need MosrtScript to run it
Wow, what a usefull script!!
I make an installation (cab file) of it.
After you have installed - you find it in Startmenue-> Tools-> AppList...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
There you find two Icons:
-One Icon to Make (create) the List.
-And one Icon to Open (show) the List.
Enjoy it...
Thanks to both p107r0 & BOBO_01.
BOBO_01 - how might I change the save location of the AppList? I'd like to save it to my Cabs folder on my storage card? (i.e. \Storage Card\Cab files)
Yes a helpfull little app. I use also mort for my things, but i have never thought about these app. Thank you...

find the script file "AppList.mscr" and change the vDestFile in first line to your preferred path

below update of the script, which should - hopefully - produce sorted output file

Thanks to all - have been looking fo a App like this. A little scary when you see the list - in my case 120 apps and still hoping for more. Every day something else appears to be "loaded up". Great work to everyone
Why dont you try sk tools? It does exactly what you want.

Thanks. As a newbie to MortScript, where do I install the script to, and how do I change 'vDestFile'? would that be by using the MortScript App, which I installed to my deviceas per your post of 10 December?

the script file itself can be run from anywhere on your device via File Explorer
if you installed the cab prepared by BOBO_01, copy the script to \Program Files\AppList folder - hope it should work from there

the easiest way is to open the .mscr file in any notepad application on your PC
I use SK Tools, very easy.

SK Tools is for sure a very powerful set of utilities,
however in terms of price nothing beats the free stuff.
As for keeping track of installed apps, I prefer to just keep on my Storage Card an orderly folder with cabs (moreless similar to the structure used in XDA_UC), this way I always know what is installed and where, also whether it needs installing at all.

Didnt work for me until I tried not selecting a language.
I work 2 jobs and I only got 2 hours of sleep last night trying to get something started. I have problems finding files that were here in the past, that is my intent on the thread to help people get a centralized (not rapidshare or megashare) spot that they can download files. I also will try to add descriptions to the files as I have a chance to test them all.
Edit, I modified the script to not allow a language choice on load, so if you can't read english, tough luck for now.

problem?
I've tried downloading various things, and tried downloading the same thing on different computers, but I keep getting messages that the zip/rar files are corrupted. Common issue? resolution?
I downloaded a zip of all the ringtones, and about 7 to 8 inside the zip were corrupted.
I am guessing those zip files are created by the server based on what you choose, so the OP needs to fix the server side scripting with regards to the compressed file creation.
I have not had any problems downloading individual files.
Also, originally I could not login because I copy/pasted the username and password. It pastes default in character 2, and puts a space in front, even though I did not copy a space in front of the username, so its a safe bet to just type in the username/pass manually.

I have a question, what is generating the error, your program that unzips or trying to actually select is as a ringer and getting the error... if 2nd item then could you try downloading zip to pc and playing the files in windows media player. Another general note... if you use "winace" that zip manager has given me tons of issues w/ zips, rars files, and reccomend using winrar or the standard vista extractor. I've had 2 people test it on Ringers download and are both quoting no error message or problems playing the files and they were not on my network so I wanted to be sure that factor was ruled out...
Future thanks for any advise you guys can provide. I did also have like 10 server 2003 updates as it's been like 3 months since I restarted... so maybe that fixed the problem too
I use WinRAR to extract everything...zip, rar, 7z, etc...and it says "file is corrupted" on about 4 or 5 of the ringtones. but the ringtones are fine individually downloaded.

Just out of curosity, if you still have the files, try extracting them with the os unzipper just as a thought, I can't even get corrupt rar file msg w/ winrar though

Hi,
Tnx for your effort. I think the problem with some corrupted files lies in the fact that some of the filenames are not correctly applied. Some ringzz I downloaded did not have an extension, same as the PointUI that showed up without the *.cab extension.
Dirk
Thank you for putting all this in one place. It makes things so much easier.
Thank you very much. You have just made my life a whole lot easier. I was searching for these ringtones.
[Solved!]
Okay. So I've converted cab to oem to ext and I'm still getting a runtime error with platformbuilder.exe I've attached pictures of what my command prompt looked like during the process and I've attached what cabs, oems, and exts I used. It's not an error with NetCF, so I'm thinking it has to do with one of the exts I used maybe?

Hey Kraize,
No problems there ... PB is letting you know that the package in question is overwriting existing files with the version from the package.
FYI.
If you want to output the processing to a "Build" log file, I have a look at my Visual Kitchen in the Tutorial, the BAT file was updated to spool logging to file.
... has MTEE and the syntax (Thanks to Da_G)
Cheers,
Leave it behind ... other new Chefs are going to run into the same issue and wonder.

Really? It's a runtime error with platformbuilder.exe and then it exits the process and I'm back to the kitchen. It didn't build anything. I'll have a look at your tutorial

According to the screen captures ... that's fine.
It could be barfing after the packages.
Pull the BAT from my tutorial kitchen and use it to retrofit your BAT file with logging. We can look @ the logs afterwards and see what's going on.
What version of Visual Kitchen are you running?

Shows version 10. I'm cooking with your bat
EDIT: Guess I didn't edit it properly, it didn't produce a log file. Think you could upload your edited BAT?
EDIT: Doh! >.< Figured out my problem. It was my SASHIMI ext.
EDIT: Decided to make this the thread that discusses the problems you might have while cooking a rom. Maybe this might help other new cooks as well.
Glad you figured it out the problem; make sure to set the Log File environment variables at the top of the BAT file.
If you still need the BAT, let me know.

Okay. I'm having two other problems. The default WM6.5 connection setup likes to pop up before customization even though I haven't enabled it? Same goes for the comm manager which defaults over the rhodium one I have installed. Could someone tell me the location of the default connection setup and comm manager so I can delete it/make it false?
EDIT: Found the connection setup. It's the ADC folder in SYS. Dunno about the comm manager.
On a side note, I had another problem with the tachi dialer not working at all. The buttons don't work at all :O Nor the talk button on screen or the hardware button.
EDIT: Solved by registry key
FingerKeyboard deosn't cook in nicely
EDIT: Solved by making it UC
Sorry for sounding so noob-ish But I just thought that I'd post here anyways since most of the questions and solutions in the kitchen thread get drowned in the chatter. I'll edit and post if I found the solution
Bah I cannot find the default wm6.5 comm manager oem for the life of me. Someone please point it out to me.
Not sure either ... did you try posting a request in Da_G's 6.5 kitchen thread; he may be able to help better than I on that one.

Did you figure out the SIP reg setting? I just started using Finger Keyboard, and don't know how to set it as default, either (haven't tried cooking in the reg setting yet). The main FNGKB reg settings are:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FingerKeyb]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FingerKeyb\SkinFiles]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\Exidler FingerKeyb 2.1\ExecutableFiles]
and a few others that don't look like much.
I normally set my keyboard prefs with these two:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip]
I have a feeling this is going to take me a few iterations.
Figured it out! Thanks to Da_G! It was a problem with my package. It's app.reg didn't replace the shell one. You need to add this into your app.reg if you get the normal comm manager.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSWRLSMGR]
"0"="MSWRLSMGR" ; class name
"1"="\\Windows\\CommManager.exe" ; exe to launch
"2"=dword:1 ; perf hint (RAI_PERF_*)
"3"=dword:0 ; app type (?)
Althought now, I have a new error with netCF :S
"The file 'app name' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."
That's with 3.7, if I use 3.5, I get a NullReference Exception with all of the apps :|
EDIT: Fixed with aruppenthal's package. Seems like I was missing some files from each package and the one aruppenthal gave me was complete.

IMAG to Date renames image files, JPG, GIF, and BMP to Date Formatted filenames, MMddyyyyHHmm_RID (R.I.D. Random ID). The dates are based on the Date when the file is created.
You’ll probably hate the way Camera application saves the image file, which was “IMAG####.jpg”. This kind of naming will cause a problem when backing up the image files in your PC/MAC specially when the file already exists in your backup drive but different picture, the only thing you could do is to rename the file in your mobile device. For example, you have “IMAG0050.jpg” in your mobile phone and you want to move that in your PC/MAC but a file “IMAG0050.jpg” already exists but has different picture? Probably the first thing you’ll do is to rename “IMAG0050.jpg” in your mobile device into something different.

You can format it in any way you like.
@TheRem
yes, click Menu>Select Folder
i mean when starting the program, it automatically opens My Documents folder but i like it to open the DCIM folder as the startup folder.
@TheRem
Actually, I based the location in registry "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Pictures\StorageCardPath" thought it was the default Camera path but it turns out that the value set in StorageCardPath is the last location of the Pictures and Videos application path.
I have to look deeper in registry. I'll ask Resco Registry tool

Hi dtsouers,
You have created a little tiny tool that helps to organize things better.
One question from me for what i have found on your website:
>>P* is the Programs folder located in StartMenu
>>If nothing is specified it will go into the StartMenu
It is possible to move links to P*?
Sample: the *.lnk it is in the main directory of \startmenu\programs.
Now i will move it to \startmenu\programs\sample_dir.
Great app! Now only if it looked and functioned a little better.. I'd cook into into my ROM for good.
First you need to use the Category Editor to create sample_dir in P*.
Once that is complete, find your link in the list and change the category to sample_dir.

Tried it out on my Touch Pro 2. Its definitely the folders not always being accessible, now its time to see if I can get the remote debugging working.

Hi dtsouers,
thanks for your aap update. I go to test this today in the evening in our time zone ;-).
REPORT:
Installed on the memory card. Program's 1st start needs a little bit more time.
I think it is the link searching function?
Updated:
I have to update my signature.
Now i have running the newest official htc ROM. This comes later on the day.
I will report later the rest of my tests, but so far so good.
Can someone please tell me where MetaMorph stores it's files/images once it loads a theme/etc.?
I'm not talking about "/AndroidThemes",..I'm talking about where it stores everything once it unzips a theme or lock-ring or whatever...
I installed a battery zip a while back and now they battery image just shows up randomly every once in a while...I wanna remove it from the device comletely & don't know where to look...
thanks.

I think you misunderstand how Metamorph acts. It actually changes permanently your patched system files to theme your apps. Depending on which part you are theming it patches different files.

ahh...I obviously did misunderstand....I figured there was a folder somewhere with all the files/images in it.
..I notice when I flash a new lock-ring, in my image gallery there's the lock-ring image and a "drawable-xhdpi" & "drawable-hdpi" images...that's what gave me the idea there was directory somewhere storing files...
is there a way to make the battery image I flashed a while back stop showing?

That's likely an extracted zip from Metamorph. I think I misunderstood your question.
In light of this new information, you can long press the image file, then press the context menu button then Properties (last menu) and at the bottom of the dialog window you should see the path to the file. You can navigate to this directory using a file browser and create a file named ".nomedia" without the quotes. This will make the media scanner not scan this folder and thus you won't see it in the gallery.
Example:
File is located in /sdcard/Metamorph/theme1/folder
Create a .nomedia file in /sdcard/Metamorph/
Everything in this folder and the folders in it will not get indexed.

I appreciate your help!
this explains alot, but the problem I'm having is (see screenshot below please) on the top-left-hand side in the notification bar you'll see the small blue battery icon..I flashed that through MetaMorph maybe 2-3 different ROMs back, I'd say at least 3 weeks ago, and, at the time, the battery icon didn't show for some reason....and hasn't since then...
now it just showed up out of nowhere
I flashed a new ROM a few days ago (battery icon did NOT show up then) and then last night it just showed up....outta nowhere...
I want to get rid of it but, unlike the "drawable" lock-screen images in my image gallery, this actual icon/image is nowhere to be found (or seen)...
is there a way to remove it?
I mean I thoroughly wipe the cache(s) & system a few times before each new ROM so it kinda has me confused why it just showed up all of a sudden...

If you've flashed another ROM then that's not coming from anything you've done with Metamorph. The system files that would have been modified would be gone.

that's exactly what I thought....I checked the OP for the current ROM I'm using and there's nothing about extra battery icons....the ONLY time this icon was ever on my phone was back when I flashed it a few weeks ago...and then it didn't show after the flash....
makin me crazy...
