What was the name of this tool? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I saw a tool that could edit the dependancies and more stuff of Pocket PC executables so you could for example "force" a WM2003 application to run on PPC2002. Can someone please help me to find it again?
Many thanks in advance!!

Took a while but I found it, it's called ExecutabilityCheck.

Custom ROM for Pocket PC

Hi
Sorry if this post is not in the right place. I am in great need of help. I am a mobile software developer. A client who is into automation contacted me. The client has a control application that he would like to start up whenever the pocket pc starts. This itself is not a problem, since you can simply create a registry key to handle this. The problem comes in that the application must still start even if the battery has been drained completely and the device start like it does after a hard-reset.
From what I have read, it is possible to create a custom ROM image that contains the key described above. The application could be stored in the backup storage area of the ROM.
I have looked at tools to edit the .nbf files that are available with the ROM updates for the pocket pc from the manufacturer (HP iPAQ running WM2003SE), but I cannot find a clear answer, and my knowledge of Unix is bad at best.
Any help and suggestions from anyone on how to edit the .nbf file or any other method to manage this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

how to desable certificates and signed cab files for Windows Mobile 5

I've spent days and night trying to install a cab. file on my ppc without a succes now how a hell can I desable the certificate and signiture of this file.
thanks a lot for your help
You can try a program called certification off "Cert_SPCS.cab" it turns off the validation in WM5 (not sure if it works with later ROMs but worth trying)
Search for it.
Or go to: www.pdamagician.com/wm5software
I have already done it, still get the same message" installation was unsuccessful the program or seting cannot be installed because it does not have suffisient system permissions. Other solution will be highly apreciated, thanks anyway
Have a read of this thread, might help you !!

The link here above did not help, thanks anyway. So again
is there any genius friend out there who knows how to unsigned cab, or disable signatures? 3 months waiting for a solution is too much.
Thankyou

Do you use a pocket pc device or a smartphone?
For pocket pc you can use my tool to turn off security.
So no prompt when you install or start an application with
no certificate.
Copy to device and start after some seconds a message box
is displayed with the result.

Thanks Houser for your precious help, unfortunatly this did not work, I still get the same borring message concerning cab signature. What if we unpack the cab file, unsighned it and then repack it again. I wish I was a programmer!!
NB. The device is a pocket pc with WM 2006 onboard
Now lets get it strait, who can help me to re-build this bt patch for an Eten M700. This later can make the device compatible with a pioneer car headunit.

Internet Sharing on WM5

Hi all,..
I would like to know if it is possible to use the WM6 internet sharing on a official T-Mobile NL WM5 ROM.
Is there a (working) CAB file or something?
Regards
A.
Just copy the files to the Windows folder and create a shortcut under Start Menu>Programs>whatever folder you want.
Try this. Let us know if it works.
---
Well,..
same error. I've recently tried the CAB file from an earlier post (maybe the same one as this one),...and get the error:
INTShRUI.exe is not a Valid PocketPC application.
please advice...
regards
A.
Cheers, been looking for this
Thanks for that, have been looking for this app. for awhile now.
Softbank X01HT (Hermes) ROM contains those files, but reports "IntShrUI.exe is not a valid Pocket PC Application" when executed. The files on the X01HT ROM were: IntShrUI.exe 184 bytes, intshare.dll 208bytes.
The files posted above execute properly and detect my net connections. Now I just need to find out what to do about this message: "Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To change your connections settings tap Settings."
Will post if I find the answer.
INTShRUI.exe is not a Valid PocketPC application.
not work on my Eten M600+
but thanks anyway
Works great for me on my WM5 XDA Flame, by cable and BT !
Thank you very much !
Im gonna try it on my Treo 700wx and tell !
Hope it works!!
Have you voted guys?
Nope. Not working. Donno how to make it work.
Not workin for me too..

The HTouchFlo Cube software application HELP

I need serious help, I can not get the HTouchFlo program to install on my Apache 6700 with WM6 on it. I have installed the files, but im not able to install the program. I tapped on the .exe file on my phone and the file with the source of the program comes up, it does not execute and install. All other files have nothing to associate itself with. What am I doing wrong? I don't have any other program of the sort on my phone. Can someone please help this newbie get this program to work. I would greatly appreciate the help.

Getting started with ROMs

I want to modify the messaging program but I've not done any WM coding before. I've looked at a number of posts on the forum and taken a look at the wiki but I'm still totally confused about where to start.
My current view is that I need to:
Extract the messaging program from the ROM I'm using
Is this possible? If so, what tools do I need? I found a few utilities that look promising on the wiki but there is no documentation for them so I've got no idea how to use them.
Disassemble the program
Can I do this with Visual Studio? Ideally I would like to step through the execution to find the bits I need to change, can I do that with the extracted program in the WM emulator? Or can I do it directly on my PDA?
Patch the program
I can probably figure this bit out by myself.
Get the patched program onto my PDA
As the program is in ROM, I'm assuming I'll have to re-make the ROM. Or can ROM files be updated/overwritten without rebuilding the ROM?
Each of those steps is assuming the previous one is the correct approach and is actually possible. I'm not looking for hand holding at every step, just some good pointers to relevant information and tools. Thanks.
0. - which programm you want to hack ?
1. What type of PDA you use ?
for example - for hx4700 -
prepare_imgfs.exe dump.dat
viewimgfs.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin
2. IDA - diassemble, or Visual Studio for debugging - if you know how
3. What type of PDA you use ?
for example - for hx4700 - like vivi kitchen.
4. ...
Thanks for your reply.

The messaging program, is it called Outlook Mobile? Do you know if it is native or managed code? If not, what's the easiest way to tell?

I've got a Kaiser. Currently running "udK 8.0 R0 Vega" ROM (WM6.1). Forgot to mention that in my previous post.

Does IDA support remote debugging on Windows Mobile? Also, are there any restrictions on what you can debug in VS, ie. do they stop you from debugging things you don't have the source for or are Microsoft applications (eg. Outlook) restricted from debugging in some way?
I'm finding it really hard to get decent information on these kinds of things. If I actually manage to get anywhere with this then I'll write up some kind of guide for the wiki.
Ok, I've used this tool to extract the ROM and get a file called 00_OS.nb. I then got these tools and managed to dump the NB file so that I now have all of the files inside the ROM.
I've been playing about with IDA but when I try and run poutlook.exe in the debugger, it runs but exits straight away (ie. it doesn't create a window on the PDA). I tried copying poutlook.exe onto my device but it doesn't run, I think I need to get it running from the exe before I do anymore IDA stuff. I remember reading somewhere that executables in the ROM image have been manipulated in some way (addresses rewritten or relocated or something), is that what is affecting it? Or do I need to run some additional tool on the extracted exe before it will run standalone?
How do I get an executable extracted from the ROM to run on my device? Or do I have to roll it all up into a ROM for it to work?
