I would like to change my default calendar view from day to month. Is there a registry setting for this?
No. You can have a shortcut that loads the calendar in a particular view though.

This is a .cab file !
Enjoy
That's a cab to change the softkey to launch the calendar in a different mode btw.

just transfer the file to your handset and use file explorer on the handset to browse to the file and tap on the file once, then it will start installing.
Copy it onto your device.
Use file explorer or a better explorer, find the .cab file, and double click.
.cabs are self installing installation files for this operating system.
If you're ever asked what device you need a cab for, mips, arm etc, choose arm.

After a reboot it works great! Thanks!

Anyone can suggest a good regedit for PocketPC WM2003SE?
I try PHMRegEdit, but looks like it is for old version of PocketPC.
Thanks

Registry Editor
Resco Registry from Resco Explorer, last version 5.13, but actually i still like PHM.
I can't even get PHM Regedit to install on my Qtek S100. Looks ok when I run the installer, but nothing is ever actually installed.
As it is still my favourite I have tried a number of times, with hardresets between, but no success.
I believe PHM registry editor is what we called here a "green" software, i.e. you can just copy and paste the exe file anywhere you like and execute it and it will work. So if you have exe file (e.g. from a former installation, a backup or another ppc), you don't need to install it.
Tried again by getting the CAB file instead of the desktop installer. Worked like a charm!
bamse,
Where you put or run the .cab file?
Thanks.
Arto
nowhere in particular : a .cab file ca normally be executed from anywhere...
Are you using cabinstall ? Because sometimes it conflicts with some .cab files. It doesn't work for instance with the icon .cab file of Agenda Fusion : when you click on this cab file, nothing happens... but it's the only .cab file that doesn't work for me...
Hope this helps...
Just copy the cab file to anywhere on your device. Then on the device, open up explorer and browse to the location of the cab. Double clicking on the cab will install it.

After this you don't need the cab on your device anymore so if it has not been automatically removed you can just delete it.
If it has not been automatically removed it means :
- that you're using CabInstall (because miscrosoft standard installer deletes tha .cab file once installed !)
- or that nothing has been installed because of an error

Tried it when I couldn't get PHM Regedit to install but didn't like it. With TRE you can't even search through the registry, right?
I know people use total commander but I have no idea how to use it. Is there an easier way? Or can someone explain to me how to use it to copy over some files to my \windows\ folder?

Just use Resco Explorer. It's not freeware but is a great application with the ability to overwrite protected files and has many settings to play with.

Select the file you want... Click file... Select Copy/Move... Click Tree to select where you want to drop the file.
I found this at this page, and it works for me about 90% of the time.
Download EnableRAPI and extract all files from the zip archive.
Double click on EnableRAPI.bat and leave the DOS window it launches open
Open Folder Options and choose to "Show hidden files and folders" and de-select the "Hide protected operating system files" option.
On Windows XP, this would be done by launching Windows Explorer and clicking on Tools --> Folder Options and then the View tab.
On Windows Vista, this would be done by going to Folder Options from the Control Panel and then clicking on the View tab.
Connect your device to your PC using ActiveSync (Windows XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (Windows Vista).
Browse the device's file system using the File Manager tool in ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center.
When you have finished making all of your modifications, close the EnableRAPI DOS window.
I'm not sure what this actually does, though, or why it works.

I tried that, it doesn't work. I'm using a Blackjack II running WM6.1. Does anybody know why it doesn't work and how to copy files into the windows directory?

You are posting in the wrong forums. However, your question is rather generic. I find it best to use either Resco Explorer or TotalCommander (as well as ActiveSync of course).
how do I install a CAB file directly to the phone?
just copy the cab file to ur Storage card through a memory reader. then start the CAB file from File Explorer
OR
Connect the Phone by its USB Connection. and then copy the file to any folder on device memory then choose the CAB file from the file explorer.
Easy Enjoy
Is there a setting to keep the cab, now it deletes it after isntalling.

Not sure on you're specific phone, but with the Hermes/Kaiser there is a settings somewhere NOT to delete the file when installed.
I have a folder on the MicroSD card called "Install" that has all the CABs to get it working after a hard reset. The only thing I don't have are my phone contacts and the like
One day I'll get there though....
Thinking about it there could be a field in one of the many tweaking tools for the UI
wm6 does not delete cabs after install. this happened to me on wm5. don't know how to disable that feature

usually activesync saves your contacts & when u do HR just name ur ppc back to the last name u used, then contacts should be added back to your contact list on the ppc.
another thing is to use pim backup software like pim backup which is free here: (can save emails/sms/mms as well!)

When I extract a cab file (and put it on my xda ii - wm6.1 rom) it is just an .xml file. When I open it on my laptop or xda ii it just comes up with html.
How do I get the cab to install?
If a cab is deleted after installtion, you can use Schap's Advance Config Tool to disable that.

You've 'extracted' too far. Programs like WinZip and WinRar by default list 'cab' files as archives. There is nowt wrong with this, as they are in a way. Except in this instance you don't want to see them as such.
Copy the .cab files to your PDA and install from there. Once the .cab files are on your PDA they are treated like an executable.
Got it
I happily own a HD since Thursday after a Diamond and a Pro: HD is far better!!
I tried the utility posted in the diamond forum to change the default links to time and calendar, it does not work, after the patch the TF loops without starting.
Did anyone try already?

This seems to be a very great tool but I've only experimented with remapping my calendar.
Disable TF3D
Run SSMaPa.exe from phone
Check Extended Init and press Init
Click on setting and highlight replace calendar
Check "patch enabled"
Under new program type in the path of pocketinformant
-In my case it was /Program Files/WebIS/PocketInformant/PocketInformant.exe
Delete arguments
Type in directory where exe file found
-In my case it was /Program Files/WebIS/PocketInformant/
Click save
Click deploy tab and press deploy patch
Next you will need to copu these 2 files from your TP windows directory using activesync and resco explorer or a similar program to a folder on your PC.
_mpmantoday.dll and _mpman.exe
Next download file editor from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=2721128
Unzip folder to extract files
Once unzipped open Unsign folder and drag your two extracted files one by one over Unsigner.exe. Very quickly a msdos window will open up and it will seem as if nothing has happened but don't worry the files have been modified at this point.
Now just overwrite the 2 files with the same 2 files in your TP windows directory.
Go into your settings and reenable TF3D and you should hopefully have remapped the original calendar app with PocketInformant.
All donations, thanks, beer, coffee, women, kudos should go to Svenso and Schreda over at xda since this was done using their apps and help. I'm not worthy and only a messenger of my good fortune.

Don't forget to unsign
Don't forget to unsign the changed files with the unsign.exe of the file editor tool - otherwise TF3D won't start!!!

Many thanks for your help

As the title says... Oh, and .exe files too, I can't seem to run them when my HD's plugged in... :/ Don't know what to do, to install games at all...
put them in your phone folder (any foldler) then explore this folder on your phone with file explorer an click on the cab to install.
Is File Explorer a 3rd party app? Haven't seen it on my device before...
EDIT:
Oh! Found it! Hehe ^^' It's just a different language on mine, and didn't really notice it... Thanks!
The easiest way to do that is a little application (91 KB.) called "WinCE cab installer.exe", that installs a cab from the desktop to any device connected via active sync or WMDC.

File explorer should be standard on any wm device, its the yellow envoloppe with the magnifyingglass, you might have to add it to your programs tab
Just use that and navigate to the folder you have copy the .cab to. Then all you need to do is tab on the .cab and it should install itself, just like a .exe or .com file.
To install .exe all you need to do is click on it(from your pc) and then turn on active sync while connected to your pc.

This actually makes a lot of sense as it saves the extra effort of copying to- and navigating on the phone. I googled a bit for it but non of the downloadlinks are working (4 me). Can you show us where you got it (or upload it somewhere)?
