WM5torage problem - please help! - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General

Many apologies if a solution to this has already been posted - if it has could someone lead me in the right direction?
My problem is with transfering large files to the Ameo's Microdrive. Activesync is too slow and wont transfer large files. I have tried two different versions of wm5torage, each time installing correctly and soft resetting. I am able to connect to my computer as a mass storage device without a hitch, and all files etc show up. The problem is that when i try to move, say a DivX onto the Microdrive after about 30 seconds I receive the message: "canot copy .....: cannot find the specified file. make sure you specify the correct path and file name"
Please can someone help me with this as it's ever-so-slightly doing my head in.
Many thanks
p.s. if it's any use i've tried this with both wm5 AND 6 with the same disappointing result

wm5torage works like a charge just dl on modaco forum then run it, your pc will see your ameo like a usbstick .

yes it is off modaco and it does connect like a usb stick; its just that it doesnt maintain this connection during file transfer and gives the error mentioned above

Try these...

Hi Leon.
What version are you running? Try this one if you're not already running it.
If all else fails...and this is cumbersome, but works everytime....use SafeMode Advanced and use it at boot time...no other drivers will be loaded and no conflicts.. It will def work then. After transferring your files, soft-reset to go back into standard WM5/6.
Let us know how you got on.

When I try with version 1.75 it is unreliable and often produces the error message you see. It may be luck but I've not had problems with 1.73. I disconnect the USB cable first before running, activate the software, then reconnect the cable.
When it does go wrong my Microdrive file table corrupts, also the Ameo hangs on the rainbow-wheel. I soft reset. Once I get it working I get errors if I need to copy the same file again. To fix this, I open WM5torage and run Check Disk on the Microdrive from my PC.

what you need to do is go to settings and the connections tab and turn off the advanced network functionality in "USB to PC". then use WM5torage.

I've tried unchecking "advanced network functionality" but to no avail. I've tried uninstalling activsync, and I've even tried it on a pc which has NEVER had Activsync on it - all with the same disappointing result.
Invariably WM5torage crashes and is 'unkillable' (if that's a word!) via Running Programs. Whatever I do it just crashes when I try to deactivate it.
I tried a hard reset of the device AND microdrive prior to installing Wm6 and THIS didn't work either. I've also tried the WM5torage cab posted in this thread by mackaby007. No luck.
I've tried Softkey Card Export ii as well and that just keeps reconnecting to activesync before windows even gets chance to recognise it as a mass storage device.
I think I've ran out of ideas.....

Just tried it with WM5torage 1.72 and that seems to be working fine.
Just transferred a 700mb file without hitch.
Wonder what the problem was with 1.75

try out card export 3.0
i heard this is a god sofwtare

I tried to see what could be wrong
I installed Card Export II but it would not ran and complains of missing dll's, but WM5torage 1.73 worked instantly. I have just transfered 3.5 Gb of music and some clips to test it. No problems yet and transfer took about 20 mins.
Could your problem be caused by installed software? Will have a look at Card Export 3 (never heard of it, or their notice must have gone to spam folder)

I've always been able to use version 1.73 smoothly in the past. Then, later I tried out version 1.75 thinking that it might work better. I could connect and activate. I had no problem transferring small files. However, it always stopped recognising the device as a valid USB mass storage a few minutes into the transfer operation. The de-activation would hang the device. I then went back to the older version that I still kept in my PC, (Modaco only has the faulty new version), and everything works again. I transferred a 3.7 gb file without problem.
So, make sure you do not use version 1.75 from the Modaco site.

doh!
I just read the first page and installed the 1.75 version which does crach my ameo as well. Can anyone tell me where to get version 1.72?

Please test the new WM5torage 1.78 beta version on your Athenas. It should again work on long transfers without glitches.
Feedback is needed, so please report in the main support forum here - http://www.modaco.com/WM5torage-t238545.html
Unless people with Athenas will participate in testing, there will be no good support for it...

Where can we get the 1.78 version
when I go to the link in the previous post, and click on download, it suggest only versuin 1.75
I'm having same error described in post #1 on my HTC Athena WM6.
Actually the error occurs only when using PC with WIN XP OS, while on my laptop which runs Win 2000 I don't have that problem at all.
Cheers

I've tried version 1.73, 1.75 and 1.78 beta 2 and only 1.73 is working.
On other versions i'm getting same error as Leoni
Cheers

I've tried loads of versions now but can't seem to gwet my hands on 1.73.
All the cabs marked 1.73 are 1.75
Can someone post a working 1.73 cab please

Here is version 1.73

the trick is to disable the advanced network support option in Connectivity in settings under the "PC-to-USB" icon

yes its a good while ago now since I posted that thread. but I do recall trying unticking the advanced network functionality box with my original wm5 tmob rom and also with the leaked wm6 rom. I also recall that it still didn't work. I really did try everything but only found success when installing the older version of wm5torage.I still cannot fathom why wm5torage 1.75 worked for some people but not for me. I haven't tested it since installing p.k.s black rom but will try tomorrow.
sorry to be a buttlicker olipro but cheers for your work by the way

Activesync Very Weird Problem.. Help!

Hi to all,
I have a very strange problem with the connection with activesync.
When i got the Qtek 2020, i was able to syncronise on the USB cradle easily.
After some time i decided to connect via bluetooth.
No problems there!
Activesync is working excellent via bluetooth!
But..
Now i cannot connect via USB !!!!!
I tried a fresh install on another PC of activesync (even the new version from MS), but nothing! The activesync icon is always grey! it cannot connect.
Windows find the USB cradle and the PPC OK, but nothing more.
The cradle and the PPC port must be working because i see that the battery is charging when i have it cradled.
In the PPC settings options--options i have the USB selected.
Any ideas??
TIA
try running
\windows\repllig.exe
and then put the device in the cradle

Sorry for hijacking, but I also have a problem with ActiveSync.
I previously used WM2003SE ROM2.06 (the one modified by ZeroExtreme). Then I took the plunge coz I couldn't resist trying out WM2005. The upgrade went fine, but then ActiveSync started acting weird. It synchronizes, but it stays minimized, no matter what I do. When I right-click on the taskbar tray (BTW I'm running WinXP SP2) and click on "open activesync", it opens, but again, stays minimized so I cannot get into the options or tools. I got pissed off so I rreverted back using XdA2JoJo and toenailed's Final version (the exe file). The update went fine. Naturally, I removed a ActiveSync 4 and installed AS 3.8 It was installed fine, and it recognizes my device, but it can't sync. It says connected but when I try opening AS it give me nothing. it doesn't even prompt me for a new partnership, even though I already deleted all previous partnerships. When I cchoose to "explore device" by right-clicking the taskbar icon, it gives me like a communication error and tells me to reset my PPC. I did, but still to no avail. I uninstalled and reinstalled AS3.8 and even AS3.7 - same problem. I searched the forum tried running replog.exe on my Xda2, nothing. Tried deleting everything including manually uninstalling AS by deleting its registry files - same problem. When I install AS4, it synchronizes alright, but again, AS4 won't open, it just stays minimized.
Sorry for a very long first post, and thank you for bearing with me. Please help me guys. Thanks in advance!
I had a similar problem. the answer:
Re-install activesync 4 WITHOUT the cradle or usb cable attached to the computer. plug it all in after the installation.
hope that helps.

Strange issues during ActiveSync'ing

When I ActiveSync, I notice my laptop shows that it is trying to make a network connection...then stops trying. A minute later, my K-Jam says it was unable to make a network connection. The strange part is that I haven't setup anything to make a network connection. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
Upgrade to 4.1
I read somewhere that the Wizard does not sync properly witch any ActiveSync versions before 4.1 (which is not officially out yet).
Check here for info and download: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=375
activesync 4.x does use ip addresses, if you check this link and then the link in it, you will get some answeres & hopefully all your problems will be solved.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32022
I'll check out the link....thanks!!! I have 4.1 installed since I got my K-Jam. I rarely ever used it with my PDA2K, but I have to install programs...damn those exe's...why can't everyone just use CAB files.
Thanks,
Tom
situation that can arise with cab files is they self destruct/delete after the install is completed,
unless you change the attributes to read only

It works for my 838.. I have lockup and unable to switch to SDcard mode only if I connected to my PC and activesync once and unplug. But that seems to be the activesync issue in my 838 which fail to free itself from unplug from PC. So it cannot switch to SDcard mode..and prompt me an error message.
I have already switch to AS4.1 but does not improve my situation.
What is Microsoft doing here?? :roll: A soft reset is the only way to get my device syncup again.. :x
I own this program since I had my XDA mini ...
finally I can use it again to copy some files to my pda and use it as a memory stick...
I also noticed some problems:
1. after I connect the USD cable and the PC recognized my pda as a memory stick, Windows XP asked me to make a reboot in order to be able to use the new 'harddrive'
2. after I copied a .jpg to my pda it looked like the storage card is no longer recognized by WM5. The icons of the shortcuts to programs I installed are missing and I cannot browse with TotalCommander to my storage card.
After disconnecting the USD cable, my storage card could be found again - is this a bug or a feature?!
After the first connect in mode 'Card Export' I switched to 'Active Sync' and the synching went on without any problems.
After agains swithing to mode 'Card Export' my Wizard gave an error message, as follows:
"Cannot switch between Card Export and Active Sanc modes. This may be because of missing dlls or corrupted registry entries."
This looks also to me like an incompatibility between card export and active sync.
Hmpf ... rebootet the phone and connected - voila - my Wizard was again properly verified as Memory Stick and I again could upload another .jpg to my device.
It looks definately unfinished ... but it is working quite acceptable to me, though there is a lot room for improvement, it will get the job done, if I need a memory stick 'on the go'.
My device is a HTC Wizard, O2 german.
i may be wrong on the second point, but activesync alters a file when you transfer it to the pda,
so if you transfer a file to the card (even using a card reader) then put the card back in the pda wm5 will not recognise it properly.
point 1 should only happen the first time of detection.
have no problem with my XDA II...

I am experiencing the same... Please update this topic if you'll find a solution.
i'm having the missing dlls dialog problem too.
I noticed that once you activesync'ed, you can't switch to card mode and need to reboot the device.
However, mine can't seem to work anymore. It won't even switch. But I also tried disabling my today's screen (pocket plus and pocket breeze) and it works... but only the icon manage to change. My PC can't detect it as a mass storage device though.
Any luck?
Mine is working fine, I got that dll message once but a soft reset fixed it.
Just wondering what roms are you guys using that works with softick? I'm using rom version 1.6.7.1 WWE which doesn't seem to work. I tried hard reset and install softick on the first reboot. The computer detected a new hardware but failed to install the device.

Same here too!! using ver 2.12
ver 2.11 worked fine with me, so most probably I will downgrade to it now.
I emailed the tech support and waiting for their reply. I will post it here in case I get anything new.
I just tried v2.12, and it didn't work. I found v2.11 on some download site, and installed it. v2.11 worked fine on Qtek's 2.8.7.1 ROM.
I cant get this to work either using 2.12. I get the device manager problem as mentioned previously. Does anyone know where can i get 2.11 from?
found it here:
http://www.softick.com/files/CardExportPPC211c-softick-en.zip
but i get the same problem
You can find previous versions in the "download" section on the left.
I'm having the same issues, used to work fine with 2.11, then it stopped being able to write but could still read (this is on my Mac), and now with 2.12 I can't even get the thing to mount. I'm talking with the developer to see if we can get a fix.
Any 2.12 and 2.11 not working for me... My computer and three others shows me message that they don't have drivers
I posted a query on their forum.

I'm a bit confused regarding their reply.
You asked a question about the Wizard and they replied saying they are waiting on delivery of HTC Universal to examine it better. I'm not sure what the Universal has to do with compatibilty for the Wizard as they are completely different devices with different hardware. (Mybe i'm wrong and the hardware components that Card Export uses is actually the same on both devices)
Puckster -
I noticed this on second look, and asked for clarification.
just want to inform everyone that there is a free alternative. it's similar to softick card export that it turns your device into a plug-and-play card reader. it's called wm5torage (yes, the number '5' is the letter 'S')
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45411&highlight=wm5torage
it does not have the system tray icon that enables you to switch between activesync and export mode, but rather you open the app in your accessories folder and activate/deactivate it from there.
but hey, it's free and it works

Cingular 8525 Sync Problem

I have an 8525 running WM6 AT&T version. It is not recognized by my PC.
It has been running fine until the Battery died 2 weeks ago. After that I can not sync. My PC does not recognize the device. The USB Cable and connection works since my portable USB hard drive works on the same connection. I have re-formatted my PC and installed Activesync 4.5. Active Sync 4.5 is the version I have been using for over 3 months. The phone has been Hard Reset. The phone works with the exception of the Sync.
Any ideas?
flash it with another rom, that isnt an official update for your device, i.e. the o2 rom update,then see if it syncs? if that works flash it back with the at&t rom. I had this problem with my hermes(mda vario II) when i flashed the at&t wm6 rom but as soon as i flashed with the o2 rom it synced fine, even with vista
Thanks for the reply. But my PC does not sync at all and I do not have access to another one at the moment so I can't flash another ROM.
It was working up to a week ago.
if u haven't already, then make sure 'enable advanced network functionality' is unchecked on device.
Happened to me too for a minute....
I d\l ActiveSync 4.5 again and reinstalled... all was good.
Try that before smashing computer...
Guess something went wrong... 4.5 worked fine then I decided to flash the radio again. Frustrated me to no end. But reinstalling AS4.5 worked for me.
Update:
I tried reinstalling ActiveSync. Did not fix the problem.
Funny thing is that the USB plug will charge the unit but I can't Sync. It won't recognize the device. Another funny thing is that the USB on the phone does not turn on. Does look like a hardware issue then?
Troubleshooting 101... I'd try a different cable first. Then a different USB port (back, front) of the PC. Then I'd try a different computer. I'd be relatively surprised if it turns out to be the phone - but... Possible, I suppose.
right click on my computer and click manage, then click on the device manager on the top left window and a list of devices will appear on the right.
If your ppc is connected unplug it, wait a few seconds then plug it back in and you will see the screen of your devices change. If you get a unknown device or device with and exclamation mark in a yellow triangle then right click on it and click remove wait for the confirmation that it has been removed then unplug the device and wait a few seconds then plug it back it again.
If all that is useless in that it doesnt even show as an unknown device then check the universal serial bus controllers section by clicking on the + to the right of it to expand the tree and check in there if there are any unknown devices and remove them.
If after all that it still fails right click on the ruu exe file and click extract to ruu_filename and extract the contents of the file to the said folder then open the folder and inside is another exe file call ruu_inside.exe right click on that and extract that the same way by right clicking on it and click extract to ruu_filename then open that folder and rename the RUU_signed.nbh to hermimg.nbh get a blank sd card format it in the device so nothing is on it then copy the hermimg.nbh to the card. Then enter bootloader by pressing top left side button top right side button and camera button at the same time as you reset with the stylus and it will update from the sd card

I tried this, reinstalled activesync, then it FINALLY WORKED. Thanks!
My activesync has been broken for a couple of days. I am pretty OCD so I have been on a warpath to fix it.
On a positive note, I couldn't get the new ATT rom to load, so I did everything else - I now have SIM and CID unlocked phone with vp3G's rom and I am liking it very well!
i had the same problem..i just un-installed activesync 4.5 and re-installed it. Then installed the new AT&T rom (WM6). i had the schaps verison on their before but it was giving me hell and after i replaced it with the AT&T version all is well...
OMG!!! I was freaking over this. New ATT WM6 ROM installed, was a bear but got it synched to AS 4.5 at work..but could not explore. Came home, and nothing I tried would even let me sync on my home pc! Note, this PC has been syncing WM Devices for over 5 years now, I am no newb to them!
I was even getting the "USB does not recognize this device" error! WTF!!!!!!!
After uninstalling and re-installing AS many times, cleaning the registry, doing a Hard Rest to the device...all to no avail....until I searched in here:
Quote:
if u haven't already, then make sure 'enable advanced network functionality' is unchecked on device.
That fixed it!!!! Why? I have no f'ing idea. And curse ATT/MS for having it enabled!
First try and I was able to connect , synch, explore....viola!!!
You should also mentioned where to find it:
You can find that Fubar setting by going to Settings/Connections/USB to PC

Not digitally signed with a Trusted certificate/ Activesync keeps UNINSTALLING!

First of all, I had some minor problems getting Activesync to recognize my 8525. (XP, Net 2.0). After a couple of driver updates or whatever, it finally worked!
I tried flashing to a different ROM but had problems during the HardSPL procedure. I stopped it, but THEN had some problems trying to connect my 8525 to the PC!! (Activesync again, ugh!) I uninstalled & re-installed Activesync like 3 times, and FINALLY got it to work again!
Now I have problems installing .CAB files to my 8525. I keep on getting the warning:
"The program is from an unknown publisher. You should install it only...."
I press "YES" and it comes as "unsuccessful".
I press "NO" and I get the "... program cannot be installed because it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate".
Besides having installation problems, I also noticed that Activesync keeps on disappearing/uninstalling from my PC. I have to install Activesync 4.5 every time I turn on the PC.
Can some one tell me what's going on? What should I do? Should I do a "HARD RESET"? (I have done a SOFT RESET but to no avail). I would appreciate some help. Thanks!
I found out that I shouldn't do a HARD RESET because it will erase the "unlocked" feature in my phone. (I bought the phone unlocked).
I have researched the wiki, and some threads, and ACTUALLY someone else had this problem, way back in 2006. (The .CAB problem). But no one responded.
I also had to uninstall a program I had previously installed in my 8525 due to the fact that it stopped responding. It just wouldn't work anymore. I got the same "unsigned certificate" message.
I guess I'm going to RE-INSTALL Activesync ALLL over again. Maybe it will help it or something...
(This is literally going to be like the 5th time I install Activesync. And I just got the 8525).
IF ANYBODY CAN HELP ME WITH THE .CAB PROBLEM I WOULD APPRECIATE IT.
(I'm running WM6 Pro, AT&T)
freakin piece of crap!
its STILL NOT WORKING!!!!!
It USED TO WORK! I used to be able to install .CAB files. I have only installed 2 .cab files into internal memory (NO external. dont have one yet). I installed Opera Mini, and Wifi Radar. I also installed a couple of themes. I also installed animated themes but deleted them since they wouldn't work. (I think they required some other stuff). I also deleted all the themes except for one.
THEN one day, i tried doing that HardSPL-V7, and I got to the last step but quit since I got an error telling me that if I continue the (usb?)device could stop working.
Another time I tried installing SPB Finance 2.8 .CAB and that's when I noticed it would no longer install .CAB files. (It also won't install directly using .exe)
I researched Google and the forums, and found out a guy that had the same problem (no one responded).
Today I noticed that Pocket Wifi Radar wouldn't run. It said something about the certificates. I uninstalled it, tried to install it again, but it wasn't successful.
So far this has been the history of my 8525. Could it be because the "certificates" were installed in the ORIGINAL computer profile? Since I have installed Activesync many times, I noticed every time it creates a new profile. For example, the first time it was called "Windows PC". Then it was called "Windows PC2". Just right now I installed it again, and it was going to be named "Windows PC3", but I changed the name to something else, and of course it still didn't work.
Could ANYBODY give me some tips as to what I should do? Thank you.
go to settings>connections>usb to pc. uncheck "enable advanced network functionality".
if it syncs a few times with no problems run unlocker tool found in upgrades section. then hard spl then if you feel game enough upgrade os with one of your choice.
Hope this helps... cheers
holy cow, relax guy. you are not the only person to ever get the not digitally signed message.

as for the hardspl problem, i responded to that thread you created, didnt you see?
Ok, I tried what you mentioned ultra, and I got this message upon connecting the 8525 to the PC. (BTW, this is the SAME message that appeared when I was attempting to install HardSPL-V7),
HTC USB Sync
has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatability with
Windows XP.
Continuing your installation of this software may impair or disabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the hardware vendor for software that has passed Windows Logo testing.
I pressed "Continue" and it installed HTC USB Sync. But then I got the a message telling me "Activesync 4.5 or greater needs to be installed" (even though it IS installed). I ran through the setup again, and it would only let me "repair" or "uninstall". I pressed "repair". Afterwards it asked me to "restart". I did. Then upon loading back up, I connected the 8525 to the PC again, and I got the SAME message again (the one about it not passing Windows Logo). This time I pressed "STOP" and then I got the message about HTC USB Sync not being installed in the computer.
I have been fed up with the problems the 8525 has been giving me. My Clie UX was so much easier to manage. Quick question, I am REALLY leaning on doing a HARD RESET, but I think/kinda know, that if I do, it will ERASE WM6 correct? And go back to WM5?
Oh and yes xtreme, I have searched this on the search bar. And yes, I know you replied back, but you were referring to the Hard SPL. I am having problems w/ installing .CAB files.

dont hit stop dude, u're suppose to hit continue. hitting stop prevents the drivers from being installed and then the RUU wont run
Well I did press "Continue" the first time and I did not see any improvements. I just saw that it installed "HTC USB Sync".
I AM able to successfully install Activesync, I just can't get .CAB files to install.
Could it be because I pressed "STOP" whenever I tried using HardSPL? Should I try and run HardSPL AGAIN and this time pressing "Continue"?
Oh, and are you sure I'm supposed to press "Continue"? After all, I do get that error about Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation. It sounds fishy pressing "Continue".
I just installed Activesync ALLLL over again, but this time in the D:/ drive... still the same .CAB problem.
Oh, and I no longer have the problem where Activesync would uninstall by itself. I noticed it fixed itself yesterday.
BUT I'm still having problems installing .CAB files.
1). hard reset will reset it back to factory its true BUT, and like j-lo's this is a big but, it will re install the last os on the phone (wm6) NOT the stock rom...
2). are you installing the .cab files from the computer or copying them to the memory card and installing from there?
If you install the .cab from the memory card it seems to work fairly well (at least from my experience). if its in a .exe format then it runs from the computer and requires activesync. if you have the .cab file then my suggestion is try to run it from the memory card.. Cheers..
Try installing the SDK certificates and see if that helps
Finally Works!!!!! Hard Reset!
OK, so I've been up for about 3hrs straight trying to figure this out. Reinstalled/uninstalled activesync... tried installing HardSPL again (twice)... didn't work. So I was like, you know what...f* it. I'm going to do a Hard Reset. I'm just gonna try it.
IT WORKED!!!! AND IT STILL STAYED IN WM6!!!! And I think it's still unlocked (although I've read from threads that a HR will disable the unlocked feature).
I AM GLAAAAD THAT I CAN INSTALL FILES NOW!!!! YAY!! (hehe). THANKS TO THOSE WHO TRIED TO HELP!!! SERIOUSLY. It feels really bad when no one tries to help you, even though you don't have a CLUE as to what to do.
** I solemnly swear I will no longer try to use HardSPL or try flashing to a different ROM*. I will use the ROM that came with the phone, and be glad everything is WORKING **
*= at least for until a couple of more months
AND for those who are having this problem (and it's a lot of ppl, based from search results), try a HARD RESET. It helped me anyways.
"and like j-lo's this is a big but"
Glad it worked but I wouldnt allow one bad experiance to turn you off flashing... If I were you I'd still flash hard spl ( in case you find something that you really like). It DOES make it easier to fix "bricks". But just to satisfy your curiosity, go to bootloader and see if it says that you have 2.10 or 2.30 SPL. Also if you want to try flashing, try the sd card method. Its a heap safer (from my experience) than flashing by activesync. Check the wiki for how to do it.
PS. you dot need to reformat the sd card. if you have all the stuff you want on it then just copy the .nbh to the root of the sd card and rename to "hermimg.nbh", it will load as soon as the hermes is put into bootloader and you wont have to re-install anything. Works every time for me and I've done it about 30 or 40 times...Cheers......

i think his problem is that he can't install .cab files period. he's having the same problem as me. my first phone had that prob, i updated .net 2.0 and it was fine. got my second phone here, update .net to 3.5, but still can't transfer/execute ANY cab files to my phone. the pc just doesn't recognize the phone period. i can't copy/paste, can't push anything through onto my phone. it's crazy. so what else can we do? i'd like to think i'm pretty tech savvy, but this isn't cool LOL
Hello,
now I cannot execute a 'not signed' .exe from my diamond, because of the 'not signed' error message.
I tried to see the first steps of the android port on the diamond touch. I had to remove the battery to stop the application. Since, it's not possible for me to execute any non-signed application (total commander, putty, ...).
Did you find a clean solution? I prefer not to go through the steps of reinstalling a new firmware (windows isn't accessible on my computer & I have a rather old backup of my diamond's files).
I allready have a hardspl, because my orginal ROM is from SFR (french operator)... and I prefer the original HTC version which is more beautiful & more uptodate.

Trying the same thing for my Diamond after trying out Android on it.
Same problem here. Running android 1.0 got me into this trouble.
(Running android 0.8 multiple times did not cause this problem.)
Did anybody find a better solution than hard reset?
Re
Same problem here cant run .cab files after trying run Android 0.8.
Damn , dunno why i tried to run Android 0.8
