i managed arabizing the spb full screen keyboard, remember its a skin so it has no rights to be broken or anything :twisted:
3 files are included, (exe) file, (txt) file & (bmp) file, first throught active sync move the exe file to the ppc then click on it to install it, after you are finished, copy the 2 other file through active sync & paste them the the same folder where you have instaled the other the exe file, therefore it should overwrite them, once finished reset your device & enjoye the arabic keyboard WITH english
Regards
Rabia
so, does this mean i dont have to fork-out $40 for the imaginet arabizer? (tho its free on xda2)
no unfortunatly you do or at least i haven't tried it without arabizer, but its work trying, download a ppc font that supports arabic & try this software with it
thanks
hi guys i recently posted a topic on o2 gprs probs. i have found the settings and downloaded them in .cab formatt. but how do i install them on to the fone or if not what folder do they need to be in?
i have placed them inthe ppc files directory and clicked to install bu it displays a message sayin they cant be installed.
cab files can be installed from any location
if they will not install maybe their are currupt
or for another cpu type then arm or xcale
i used the cab files from this forum. does anyone have the .cab files for XDA2 on o2 uk payg? would be a great help
here is where i got them. which 1 i need? and what i got to do wiv it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13498
done it lol, when i was dl the .cab file it displays on my PC as a winrar file so i was automatically extracting the files (all six of them lol), realy all i had to do was put the Downloaded file straight onto my XDA lol. dummm asss
i'm glad you got there in the end :lol:

Well the .cab files are the installation-packages for WinMobile. You need to transfer this .cab file direct to your device(or card) and via any file-exploring software start this .cab. The installation should be started. If you get an error,there can be few problems:
1.The .cab installation is for other processor type
2.or is it for a Smartphone device(PPC and SP are uncompatible(well WM5 has better compatibolity))
3.The .cab can be corrupted.
Now I want to say,that this direct in-device installation has some bad properties:
1. The .cab file is automatically deleted after installation(when your .cab isn't read-only)
2.The system install the software into a default folder only(\Program Files)-you cannot choose your own destination such as Storage,Storage Card etc..
This bugs solve this utility(below). I really recommend that.
Dear all,
attached are 3 files. FontOnStorage.zip contains FontOnStorage.exe which is used to load any fonts in the same folder as it. sunglobe.zip contains sunglobe.tff chinese font from CE-Star. As it is more than 3 MB, it is wasting precious space in the RAM. Chinese Fonts.zip contains the registry entries required.
How to use them:
1) Create a folder (I used "Fonts") in the Storage (you need Big Storage)
2) Place FontOnStorage.exe and the font file in the folder.
3) Unzip Chinese Fonts.zip and run the registry file to install it.
4) Soft reset and run FontOnStorage.exe. It will load the font file.
You can create a shortcut to startup if you use the font frequently.
Without FontOnStorage.exe, the font will not be used by Windows.
Great, did you post it in the PPCSG forum as well?
Nope. I did not. Anyway, I find that this method works as long as you run the executable immediately after a soft reset. Else, sometimes, it doesn't work.
you can always post in the PPCSG forum...I'm sure lots of ppl would find this helpful

Hi ebliss, I still can't view the chinese character after the following steps.
1) Create a folder (/Storage Card/Windows/Fonts) in the Storage (miniSD card)
2) Place FontOnStorage.exe and the sunglobe.tff chinese font file in the folder.
3) Unzip Chinese Fonts.zip and run the registry file to install it.
I'm not sure if I perform correctly for step 3. I unzip in my PC and run the registry. I can't run the registry file in my ipaq.
4) Soft reset and run FontOnStorage.exe. It will load the font file.
Please help me step by step. Thank you very much.

dear all expert,
did anyone successfully try this out ? Please guide me through.
regards.
First of all, it works. thanks to ebliss for the precious info. It saves a lot of real estate on my main memory!!
Now, in order for it to work, you must
1. Have the font on your storage (Obviously). Remember, it's on the STORAGE, not MEMORY CARD. Memory card's load time is too long and too unstable ... I wouldn't risk it. But if you don't mind trying, sure let me know if that works or not.
2. You must load FontsOnStorage on startup ... without it it won't work.
3. Have the right path in the registry. The registry file ebliss has provided points to "\Storage\Fonts\". If you have put the font in any other directory that registry file is NOT going to work for you. However, you can use Resco Registry editor, and do a search for sunglobe (assuming that's your font), and change the path manually one by one.
1) Create a folder (/Storage Card/Windows/Fonts) in the Storage (miniSD card)
2) Place FontOnStorage.exe and the sunglobe.tff chinese font file in the folder.
3) Unzip Chinese Fonts.zip and run the registry file to install it.
I'm not sure if I perform correctly for step 3. I unzip in my PC and run the registry. I can't run the registry file in my ipaq.

The reason that doesn't work for you is ...
1. You've put the font on the STORAGE CARD, not STORAGE MEMORY. Storage card = SD card = unstable and slow load time. I am not sure if it will work or not, it can create problem. But it is worth a try.
2. The path you have specified is incorrect. Again, if you use ebliss's registry, he points the files to "\Storage\Fonts\". Since you've put your fonts in "\Storage card\Windows\Fonts\" that registry file won't work for you. You'll have to manually change the registry yourself.
BTW, FontOnStorage doesn't have to be on the same directory as the Fonts ... it can be on the main memory ... that way you won't get a warning everytime it loads!
Thanks again ebliss! It's great!
cani have arabic in this way? and if anyone has any cool font plz share
I think you can move ANY additional font to the storage memory this way ...
anybody share arabic font and any cool font that i can set as system font
Hi ebliss,
I installed it to my Tmobile SDA. I put the font file in \windows\fonts.
After I run FontOnStorage.exe file, I see an icon showing up on the top. But when I try to read a txt file or browse Chinese website, I still can't read Chinese. Any clue?
Thanks,
Alen
greet job...i find this long times..thk for you..
Sorry. I could not download the attachment at this time. Anyone?
worked fine on my HTC Kaiser/Tilt ( Windows Mobile 6.1 Prof ) ... from the 'Storage Card\Fonts' folder ... now i can see various glyphs / Unicode letters/symbols, etc much better in Internet Explorer Mobile .
Thanks, to user 'ebliss' .
i've previously tried ... a different way ... changed/added few registry keys to force the Windows to use the 'Tahoma' font from the Storage Card , but instead of Tahoma it will actually use a different Unicode font , this trick worked , but font's glyphs were not as good looking or as clear as other stock font's glyph , so i removed those registry entries .
~ Bry8Star .
i can't seem to make this work on WM6.5... anyone knows how?
well... after days of trying... IT WORKS!
need help with registry
can someone please teach me how to run the registry if it's on the storage card?
How to install the .xml files bundled in the cabs.rar?? I do not know how to make the extrom run automatically after the HR so i have to install each cab file 1 by 1, can anyone help??
Use the ones in cabs2. Also make sure you know what are those .xml for (they are replaced with .cab (s) in cabs2)
xml files are a typicaly a formatted text file like html
not really binary exe programs files
some programs use xml files to store settings and data
maybe they need to be in a location the program in question
will look for them

Did you mean copy the .xml files to the location of the program file ??
use HTCustom1.7.cab
yup...
I am having the same issue. I keep seeing these .xml files. I am not a computer guru lol. Do I cut and paste it somewhere on my phone or what? I am so lost please help.
Same thing here on my side mixtape_butcha. I'm subscibed in an Universal forum and have to install a USB switch which is a folder containing an xml file. I asked many time a guide on how to use it but nothing came back.
If you happen to know how to handle it, let me know. I'l do the same with you.

first of all it is nice that you looked up a matching post yourself and obviously searched for a solution there, but...
if i get your problem right, it doesn't match the ones before. they were talking about .xml files that came with a cab file and stored the settings on how to install and execute.
you, however, talk about a subscribtion to a thread, meaning your xml file is an RSS feed, for which you need a special reader, since PIE is not a proper desktop browser and therefore does not handle feeds. but there is a lot of software out there to handle rss feeds. i personally use spb online 1.2, but there is also freeware, like this: http://www.dewantoro.net/search/pda+rss+reader+cab
i don't get the point with the usb switch though, maybe if that didn't solve your problem you should post further details about that issue and maybe post filenames or screenshots so we all know exactly what you are about to do.
You need not worry to install xml file if it comes with a cab. Cab file should be designed to use it automatically. xml files store usually configurable settings, it may be worth opening those files using any text editor like note pad or even IE to check the contents, that may help if any change is needed. But 99% chances are that you need not do any thing with those xml files.
I have found some people run in to this problem when they download a .cab file from the internet and once downloaded it is a .rar so you extract the .rar to find NOT .cab but .xml
Here is more about it and how to fix it.

I am trying to install a game on my MDA Vario IV , it does have .xml file. But no .cab files , only .000 file , .002 , .003 , and .004 files. How do i install this game then ? The installer is the .xml file.
EDIT : Nvm , fixed it , i needed not the files within the .cab file , but just the .cab file itself to extract in on my mobile.

Couple of things:
You are in the wrong subforum. This section is for the Blue Angel. You should look for the Blackstone (aka Touch HD) section.
Now, the file that you opened is a cab file. You don't need to extract the contents of a cab file. Just copy it to your device and click on it one. The cab will install everything, including the settings in the xml.
Good luck!

I have tried to change my start text to something else but I really can't find that string 321 in ANY .dll on my device. I don't even have a shellres.dll.0409.mui as it says below.
Change Start Text
1. Unsign your shellres.dll.0409.mui
2. Open it in one of these three Reshack / PE Explorer / Restoratorand go to string value 321 and change the name from Start to whatever you want.
3. Save your modified file
4. Open MssignerorMultiple file Signer
· click Start sign Process (for MFS follow directions in the link)
· a window will pop-up with "Process finished!"
· You will see a that a text file has been create for your shellres on your desktop
· Open the text file, if you see "Warning: This file is signed, but not timestamped, Succeeded" you know the file was signed.
5. Transfer the modified file to your SD card
6. Open TC and navigate to the /Windows and rename your old file to "shellres.dll.0409.mui.bak"
7. Move your modified file from your SD card into the /Windows
8. Soft Reset
Can someone help me out please? The people at PPCGeeks are so slow
No one?
No because 0409 is for English rom
In Sweden the value is 041D
So find the file shellres.dll.041D.mui
Ye I have that file, but it seems I can't copy it to my internal storage with Total Commander for some reason. Well I can copy it, but the file seems hidden and stuff even if I take away those properties on the file before I copy it.
Try to modify this file taken from windows mobile 6.1 version 2.03 SVE
then you can make a cab file that overwrite the orignal file in the windows folder
Will it make any difference when I have 1.93 ROM? I'm too lazy to upgrade to 2.03 since it most likely won't make any difference (I checked the changelog for 2.03).
2.03 is much faster then the 1.93
And also more battery consuming I read, true?

I don't think so, I'm using 2.03 standard rom and I don't see any difference.
Different versions of the radio can consume more or less battery and also
influence the function of the GPS.
There's a specific thread for radios.
I'll update later today then when I've charged the phone :]
