hi I would like to know if there is anyway to copy all of my contacts to my sim card. I can see that you can copy them one by one but that would take too long and I know that can't be the only way to do this. does anyone know how to do this? thanks in advance.
Yes, you need the newer version of the SIM Manager program. I've zipped it and attached it for you.
You need to unzip it and copy it to your devices windows folder.

well ive dropped this into my windows folder but still dont see how to move contacts to the sim. i see "contacts to sim" but it only loads a blank window and says 0/247
n/m figured it out :x
So it worked or it didn't?
When I load it and select 'contacts to sim' it loads all my contacts and automatically selects them.

I got the same result, 0/(Entries)
The bottom of the screen has a 'Save' option. Has this anything to do with it?
I tried it but didn't notice any change.
I also tried not doing the 'Select All' and just went straight into 'Contacts to SIM'
My contacts do not seem to have changed. i.e. Those that didn't have the SIM icon next to them still don't.
it works.. i loaded my contacts first then exited it
then loaded the sim manager and selected contacts to sim
can somebody give a detailed explanation of how to do it? i try to go to the 'contacts to sim...' option but then it gives me the 0/(entries) thing and no contacts show up.

SIM Manager Program
it worked I did what it says in this post, THANK YOU hshortt
can't delete or rename original file
Looking forward to use the updated sim_mgr.exe. Can't copy the file, rename the original or even copy the file to another directory.
Tried to use Total Commander to change attributes. Tried to use PC connected via USB/ActiveSync. Nothing worked.
Ideas/suggestions please....

Hope this is the right place for this....
I cooked & downloaded 3.17.03 (from Jeffs Kitchen) and have two problems:
1. When I go into Excell or Word now, I can't see any files that are loaded on the memory card. I have to use File Manager and double click the file I want. I can't find any way to inform Excell where to look either.
2. I also can't find anyway to add programs to the quick launch program (tdLaunch). I went to the authors homepage and dowloaded the PPC 2002 cab file but this won't run on my XDA. Curious that the author doesn't cover this most basic need in the README file. (I can't find any Help file for this even tho' I selected Help Files with all programs I chose to include.
Anyone know the answer to these problems?
A number of the attractive features mentioned in the ROM Kitchen announcement are not present on the version dloaded from Jeff. (Absence of tutorial at start-up, localisation to Central Europe etc, auto-config).
If any of the Developers see this, could they please comment why this is? (other than Jeff is not using the Developers ROM enhancements??)
Many thanks.

Tap "start",...tap "settings".....tap "today"...... at base of screen tap "items"......tap "tdlaunch".........tap "options" you can add, delete, etc from there. Hope this what you are wanting.

Try opening word or excel, at the base of screen tap "tools".....tap "options", take a look in there for the defaults for saving and viewing files. Might help.

No dice on that one unfortunately. Even tho' i tell it i want to save to Storage Card 1 it won't look in there.
It's not this "ignore my doc" file is it? I used ot have one but now I can't see one in the root dir of the card.
:?
Did you try reformatting the card, after backing up the files of course. Also have you actually saved a file to the sd card since your upgrade?

No, I havn't tried reformatting it. (After all its the ROM that was changed not the location of the data). And I just tried saving new files- They ARE written to the SD folder "My Documents".
But the XDA still doesn't see any files in the other folders on the card...
you have to save those files in the My Document directory on the SD Card. thats how MS did it.
Hi.
Actually, I dimly recalled that the file ignore_my_docs IS necessary for the OS to 'see' files on the Memory cards which are outside of My Documents.
I located a backup and found the ignore_my_docs file, transferred it over to the XDA and my problem was solved.
Not actually sure how the original was deleted. :?
Thanks for the feedback anyway.
Cheers
I am having a problem getting my contacts to show. When I view a contact, all I see is a blank "Summary" page (tab). On the Notes tab, I can see whatever data should be there.
I had problems with ozVGA until I discovered that I needed to use the .92.DLLs that were on this site and not on the ozVGA's author's site. When I did copy these .92.dll files into the windows dir, all seemed great. However, at the end of the copy process, I had a pop-up that stated something (unknown which file) could not be copied and that either I ran out of space or a file was Read Only/ In Use / ROM or something to that effect. I checked each .92.dll file and all seemed fine as far as the RO attribute being off.
Does anyone have a clue what might be causing this? I was thinking outres.96.dll might be the culprit. Any ideas?
Here is what I think is important to know:
ROM info below in tag.
VGA via ozVGA (http://oz.sciox.org/OzVGA053.zip)
Started with VgaRes.zip (http://oz.sciox.org/VgaRes.zip)
Ended up putting VGA 1824 071105.zip on to fix lost and altered icons.
Thank you,
These are not the correct files. There is another zip on the FTP server named VGA_AKU2.zip. If I remember correctly it's in the
ftp://xda-developers.com/Universal/Tools_Programs/ folder, but I can't get to the ftp server at the moment but you'll find it.

Contacts shows blank
I had the same problem with blank contacts because I had issues with Voice Command. There was a suggestion to replace the outres.96.dll file with a newer version. When I did this, i started to notice the problem.
I'm assuming that this file is specific to the hardware you are using, maybe that is where I messed up. I am using a rare Benq P51. I tried renaming outres.96.dll to something else, then reboot the phone hoping that it would recreate itself. It did!
Tried contacts again and it is fully functional.
Hope that helps.
I have a sound called msgbox.wav that is very annoying. I use a onebridgeclient for checking my work email and everytime this connects I get this msgbox clunky sound. I found the file but I cannot remove it or change it to something else because it is writeprotected. Is there anything I can do?. I cannot change the sound in normal settings. I have shut every sound down and still it goes of when connecting to my inbox.
Try using TotalCommander, freeware file manager. It can replace most protected files (copy over it)
If in any cases that it is not able to, the program may be using it. Try disabling the problem by either some TaskManager, or remove them from the start list, and try again. Then re-enable the program.
I hate programs that tried to be funny with so call 'real-sound' effects.
I just tried to delete it using resco file explorer, didn't work. Gives me a message that the file is in ROM memory and can't be deleted, is there really nothing I can do?

You can't delete the file, you have to overwrite it as hanmin says above, just create a wav file with no sound, make sure you name it msgbox.wav and paste it in your windows directory, a warning will come up asking if you want to write over it, just click ok and bobs your uncle, sorted!

I am just about to try that dude
Hello all!
Sorry for this newbie question, but I couldn't find any answer in here to this strange situation.
I have put couple of files under 'My Documents' and now I cannot delete them (or move/rename etc.). Also I cannot add any files into this folder (or any sub-folders).
------------------------------------------
Cannot delete 'xxx.mp3': Access is denied.
Makes sure the disk is not full or write-protected and the file is not currently in use.
------------------------------------------
And no, they are not write-protected or in use, so what is the problem?
HTC TyTn
WM5 (5.1.195)
Storage mem.: 56.96/37.03 (free)
Thanks in advance!
[email protected] so happy with this brick.
Have you tried soft reset and then try again?
click and hold the folder and/or files and make sure you havent set them to read only in properties.

Nah thought had forgotten something.
* I have tried both soft and hard reset - no result,
* of course I mark the file first and no they're not read-only.
If you read my description than I'm unable to add any files under my documents as well, not only with deleting them.
I can create a 'New folder' and delete this, but while creating it I can not name it - get an instant error...
Seems to be the typical joy of Microsoft.

I've exactly the same problem since yesterday.
But with Totalcommander I can delete and rename all.
I've restored an old backup, but the error is allways there.
edit:
Now I tried an Hardreset and replayed the backup. The error is away.
Hi!
I'm having the same problem. But I don't have a backup copy.
Also I'm beeing unable to connect thru ActiveSync. Maybe the problems are related. No problems when connecting with W2003, though. I think I will have to downgrade and live with it for the moment beeing..
Any ideas??
Thanks.

You got it working?
I'm at wits end on this one... I've tried everything possible... it has something to do with the HTCUSBToPCPopup.exe in the \Windows directory.... no shortcut I create linking to it will make it open...
go here for a how-to
http://labelfree.co.uk/archives/4
followed that how-to... 27 leads to sd card encryption. USB to pc is 34 in mycpl. so i created the reg key and .lnks for it pointing to HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe in the win dir. doesn't work as well. even starting the exe itself won't work.
Right, well thats odd, because it means you have a windows ce 6.1 version of cplmain.cpl instead of a 6.5
hang on, you said mycpl, , are you using myclp.cpl instead of cplmain.cpl?
Impossible?
OK, so thats my mistake. I swear i made one and it worked with the code i put.
Sorry.
So, create a new notepad document, paste in
24#ctlpnl.exe mycpl.cpl,34
save. Rename extension from .txt to .lnk (L not I)
move to windows/start menu on your phone, and you can set it as a quicklink.
Starts USB to PC.
Perfect, thanksssssssss

Brilliant I've been wanting to know how to do this for a while. I swap between Active Sync, Internet Sharing and Disk Drive regularly. Thanks.
BTW: I renamed the file to just "USB2PC" with no .lnk extension and it still works fine.
Now I just gotta figure out how to set an icon for the quicklink - I think I read something about an app for doing that somewhere...... time to go for a search.......
