Hi,
Can I unlock files from Windows directory , for example: camera.exe and delete them. When I try to delete this file I receive an error. There are any programs for unlocking or I must edit ROM? And last question, if i delete this file, it will be more memory available?
I have HTC Charmer with WM5.
files located in the rom cant be deleted and if they could it would not add memory for applications or storage

I'm guessing .unload files are used when un-installing ..... If I don't intend to uninstall a particular program, would it do any harm to delete the associated .unload file to free up some RAM ??
Hello All! (happy new year)
I want to erase some files on my Magician's windows folder. I am crazy about memory free on my mobilephone.
Thanks for your help
I would be careful which files to erase from the \Windows folder. Some files that are embedded in ROM cannot be deleted no matter how hard you try and can't be unlocked either.
You can use a tool like Valksoft Space Reclaimer to clean up any files leftover from previous uninstallation of software.
You can move the help files of the software installed from the \windows folder as well as the .uninstall files to your SD-card. With the latter, you need to move the appropriate one back to the \windows folder should you need to uninstall that program. That should clear up some space for you.
Hi, i have updated my device to the mr. clean image.
Now i have to install all software. So i create a folder on my storage card with all necessary cab files.
Is there a possibility to have them all be installed with one click? For example to create a Batch to install them one after another?
Hope not to ask silly questions.

try this;
example;
This '\Storage Card\2577\autorun.exe' is an official M$ way of autolaunching programs from SD card, well described in MSDN...
If you put calc.exe into this folder and will rename it to autorun.exe, it will be automatically launched upon inserting this SD card in. So your calculator will pop up...
make a folder in the root of the sd card called [2577] put the cab files into the folder ,reboot the device .it should install,
alternative; use the autorun from the extended-rom to launch the files.you my need to do some editing intiothe config file.
Thanks - how can i "see" the extended rom? Editing a config file is no problem for me.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
use "TOTALCOMANDER"
download ,install then open the prog ,write the folowing in totalcomander,[extended_rom] now you should see the contents of the extendedrom,you can use totalcomander to copy any file to any location.

thank you very much to all
Problem is...all your CABS will be installed to their default installation directory (mostly Main Storage).
What I would like to know is how to make all CABS install to the Storage Card or a directory specified in the config.text?
Please help me someone how to make CABs which can replace system files in ROM (e.g. gwes.exe etc.). I know that there are many users who know how to do these CAB files...
BTW I have searched all available WM5 forums and found nothing
You can't actually replace ROM files using a cab. What you can do is overwrite any ROM file once, with a file that has the same name. The actual file will be stored in the normal storage memory and referenced instead of the original ROM file by anyone trying to access it.
If you hard reset (format) the device the original file will be back.
There are no special actions required to do this. Create a cab as usual with the files you want.
Note two things: 1)You really don't want to mess with gwes.exe because you are likely to crash your device. 2) On some devices, replacing system files may require changing security settings first. If your cab fails because of permission issues, search for 'Application unlock' for your device.
Thanx very much for your reply I want to mess with system files because I'm going to make translation of my device I tryed to make CAB file but it seems my device (Mio A701) is locked so you say I must search for "application unlock" specially created for my device? Isn't there any universal unlock for WM5 devices?
I tried to copy a bunch of .dll files from \Windows
I encountered a couple of problems doing that:
1. Some files are not shown on the PC in Windows Explorer though I've enabled viewing hidden and system files. However, these files are shown on the device in Resco Explorer, but can't be copied to e.g. \Storage Card
2. Some files are shown on PC in Windows Explorer but are in use and therefore can't be copied
What are the tricks to back up those files?
PS: My device (S710 Vox) is unlocked using M$ Security Manager
No tricks.
If you bothered to learn anything about your device you would know that these files are part of ROM and can not be copied out.
Don't mean to be rude but this was asked and answered many times before. Do a search on "ROM dump"
Yeah stupid me...
Dumped the ROM and got the files I want
(http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Vox_HowToDumpRom)
Actually I can't find coredll.dll in my ROM dump.
I used viewimgfs.exe to dump Part02. I can't use viewimgfs.exe on Part00 and Part01.
Is there another tool which can retrieve coredll.dll and perhaps other missing files?
Another question: can the S710 be flashed by using imgfs tools v1.82 to create the image(s) and a generic HTC flash tool?
