Installing xml files - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Hi,
I am trying to get mms working. I need to install the 2 .xml files (MMS_account.xml and MMS_Folder.xml). I have tried the config loader, but it gives me an unexpected error (error code # 2147753992)and won't load anything. I have tried the makecab tool, but the cab won't install succesfully. Anyone knows how to load xml configuration manually?
-------
PH20B
WM6

Use the 2 cabs from the cabs2.rar file...then there is no xml file needed.

Installing xml files - solved
Thanks for the tip, I will download the files. In the meantime, I have succeeded to install the files. So these are the steps I took to get mms working in wm6:
1. install arcsoft mms software
2. load MMS_Acount.xml with config loader
3. load MMS_Folder.xml with config loader
I guess the problem was that i wasn't installing arcsoft in the first step.
Thanks for your help.

You got to enable MMS too, use the right cab after MMS installation..

xml files
Please explain how :load MMS_Acount.xml with config loader

Hi mabizaf,
Provided you can read this text you will find out that the_scotsman said : THERE IS A CAB!
It means there is a cab, you dont need to install xml, because there is a self installing file.
Yes, you dont need to mess up with xml - THERE IS A CAB!
Got it?
(PS: Do not ask anybody where the cab is because you can find it yourself in 30 seconds)

If it has installed itself on your himalaya, uninstall instructions are in the thread

Install Caller_ID_W..
PHP is a language which runs on the webserver. so when you click on download.php you actually start a service on the server, which gives you the requested file.
now these CAB-files are pocketpc cab files ad are kind of setup programs for PocketPC , so you have to copy the CAB to your pocketpc and execute it there.
You can execute it by putting it in your extended rom, modify the config.txt and hard reset (I hope you know what hard reset means/implies)
or simply by tapping on it in PPC file explorer. In this case the CAB will disappear after installation. But if you have a previous version of Caller_id installed, you best uninstall it first : by editing the registry as explained in the forementioned thread, deleting as much files from the previous thread as it allows you to, soft reset, and delete the rest of the files.
I sure hope you understand all this, because if you don't know what php is, don't know what PPC CABs are, then I would advice you not to mess around too much with your PPC internals.

i know what is cab file.
but i wanted to know weather the file is in zip format cus win zip doesn't recognize it and even when i paste it on my ppc it doesn't install it simply says (there is no application associated with ''caller_id_wwe'' run the application first,then open the file from with in)
sounds like something corrupt during download
clear your internet cache and download again, don't unzip/unrar it, just copy the complete CAB file to your PPC
almost everything is installed with cab, so it would be weird that no association exists. Or during the copying to PPC maybe the conversion went wrong.
I'm really guessing now, just keep trying.

Enable MMS folder via Registry

Hi guys,
Question....does someone maybe know the registry settings to enable the mms folder in WM5?
Sure I know I can use a cab for it, but I am trying to find out what registry settings are needed to enable the MMS folder without installing the CAB file.
I am looking for the specific settings for a HTC Wizard, but settings from another HTC phone would be a good indication to start (I hope).
Regards, thanks and to all a very happy new year (of developing),
Molski
One of the CAB files I posted (I think) had it in it.. And I know I've seen the keys around here somewhere.. Unfortunately, I don't have an 8125 any more though, and I'm not quite finished with poking around my 8525 yet (planning on unlocking the ExtROM today so I can start deciphering CAB files).
I'll let you know what I come up with from the 8525 perspective.
I found your CAB file and I extracted it.
Unfortunately the same results as I have with the T-Mobile MMS Folder cab....it doesnt work
I install the CAB file, the MMS folder shows up, I export all the MMS Registry settings, do a hard-reset, import all the Registy settings and no MMS folder showing up.
I think it has something to do with the following registry values:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\EntryID]
"Deleted Items"=dword:00009F00
"Inbox"=dword:0000F79F
"Outbox"=dword:00005FBB
After a hard-reset and installing this CAB file every time the values are different??
Could be. I'm honestly not too sure. But whateve reg values are in that CAB I've used over countless resets.
I'm getting ready to walk out the door in a few minutes, but when I get to my buddy's place I should be able to sit down for a few and look at the CAB and see what's in there again and go from there.
Take a good look at the values I posted....I really think it has something to do with those values changing every time you install the cab after a hard-reset.
Thanks!
Molski
Which CAB file are you using? I see a couple that I've posted.. Want to make sure I'm looking at the right one..
Beside having the MMS Folder to appear, I think you should have a service provider cab in ExtRom to configure to the right Service Provider's Server or you have to manually key it.
I am not sure if Wizard is the same.
cab files like mms folder and contain the values of certification on them it cannot be integrated so far, i tried,when you install a cab like mms, it writes several numbers to the cert part of the registry,once you install another cab that contains cert values ,it just overwrites the old values .
this is why the service providers never integrates such settings.
all this values that the mms cab writes to the registry can be found in the .XML file ,but must of them are build in the setup .dll ,the dll is coded with a set of instructions ,and this are the one that enable mms.
lets say you manage to extract all the reg settings for mms,then build into a custom cab this is all fine,but now you also want to integrate lets say..smardialing,well u cant because when you export the reg settings from one it overwrites the other because they use the same address in the registry.(cert}
I already have integrated SmartDialing in the default.hv and it works, will install a few cert apps and check if Smartdialing still works.
The only thing that is giving problems so far are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\EntryID]
"Deleted Items"=dword:00009F00
"Inbox"=dword:0000F79F
"Outbox"=dword:00005FBB
I checked every settings that is created by the MMS folder Cab, but only these settings will change after installing the CAB.
But after reading your answer Faria, I think we cannot create inbox folders for whatever via the default.hv, is this true?
Thanks,
Molski.

Smart Dialing working?
When?
How?
Where?
Please tell us.
These registry values are included in default.hv and/or user.hv
And it works
Maybe I forget something, but test it and let me know!
Molski
p.s. These Reg values are from a HTC Wizard

yes smartdialing works .i did it a month ago....but mms no.
once you put the cert settings for one of those cabs into the default hive its fine... but if you put another cab settings from another program into it,it gets overwrited .

Is there a way to silently install a CAB file?

Hi Guys,
I know on Windows (XP) or other OS, we can install some files "silently", without a setup screen, choosing the install folder and things like that.
Is there a way to install CAB file silently on WM5, I got 2 cabs that I want to install, but dont want the user to "see it install''.
Maybe with adding some parameters to wceload.exe?
Regards,
Molski
Hi!
\Windows\wceload.exe my.cab /silent will install my.cab silently.
Remember to wait for wceload to exit before you try to install a second cab. You must also lower the securitylevel of the device or get the files signed for it to work......
Øystein
I generally use /noui switch.
hi guys,
this is my first time here in xda-developers,
please check this link if u r interested in intall the cab file silently

Using xplode's cabs as the extended rom

FIXED! NOW IT SHOULD WORK!
I hope this can help some of you.
To use xplode's cabs as the extended rom first you need to create a folder on your SD card named ExtROM
Then you need to extract all files from the cabs.rar to this folder (ExtROM on your SD card). You will need winrar or 7zip to extract the files.
Now go to ExtROM folder and rename the file SAMPLE_CFG.TXT to CFG.TXT. You can edit this file to customize it to your needs.
The final part is to download this file: extromtools.rar and extract the file autorun.exe and OemExtDll.dll to the ExtROM folder on your SD card.
Now you need to hardreset your device or simply execute CheckAutorun.exe which is located on your windows folder.
More info here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_Understand
Execution of the Extended ROM
* CheckAutorun.exe (which is started from \Windows\Startup\CheckAutorun.lnk) executes the AutoRun.exe
* AutoRun.exe is found in the \Extended_Rom Folder
* AutoRun.exe reads the \Extended_Rom\Config.txt and executes the commnands in that file
* The pointer for AutoRun.exe HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AutoRun is set to \Extended_ROM\AutoRun
* The pointer for Config.txt HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AutoRunCFG is set to \Extended_ROM\AutoRunCFG
* The Touch screen is disabled by the first command (TPDisable.exe)in the Config.txt
* The Touch screen is enabled by the 2nd to last command (TPEnable.exe)in the Config.txt
* The last Command of the config.txt (RST) performs a soft reset

I have created cabs which replace the xml files. The one of the xml files i have merged with the Arcsoft MMS cab and there are two other cabs for enable MMS into messaging app and for enable the windows update. also i have created from the other xml cab which does this in vista:
also it adds the T-Mobile as manifacturer and MDAIII as model in properties of it.
i will test the cabs and post them, have to do a hard reset in order to test them in action

Excellent, looking forward to your new cab. I also need MMS but it didn't work for me.
also by the way you can always use this for loading xml configurations

hi xplode's

i have to cancel or format the extrom???
please help me

Cab file creating

i just put together a cab file (for personal use) to remove sms threading (due to upgrading roms alot etc)
however i have hit a brick wall.
i do not know how to make the device restart after install?
i have compared to other cab files but the only difference is the other cabs install files not registry?
i'm not all that good with programming however i would really like to complete this cab for ease of reloading a new rom - so any input would be grateful - thank you
For cab file creating i use PocketPC Installation Creator. In the menu there is a check box to set the 'reboot after installation' behaviour. I played with it but noticed that my device only rebooted after installation of files. Because i found it to much effort to look into it, i didn't. After all it is quite easy to reboot manually.
You could use MSCEinf to examine different cabs and look for the reboot after installation setting (http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/msceinf/msceinf.htm)
I also noticed that some people make cab files from .xml files (sleuth for example). Maybe this method has other options than cabarc in combination with inf files.
Cant give you any answers, still hope it will be of any help.
Good luck and post back result if you figured it out.
Arjan
The easiest way tocreate CAB files is to purchase a copy of WINCE Cab Manager from OCP Software
they have just released a new version which supports Vista
i created the xml document then created the cab from it.
should have said that sorry.
so i was looking for a way to restart device via the xml..
thanks for the input so far
