Hi to all!
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. 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.
Please help me guys. Thanks in advance!

hi guys

Activesync Problem
Still the same here. I can't be the only one who has thes same minimized activesync.
No matter what I do i just can;t get it to maximize.
Help please.
Tried uninstalling deleteing registry keys. The only thing ive been able to do is a system restore. and of course i'm left with 3.8
Help
solution !!!
I met exactly the same problem some days ago. The issue resulted from the undeleted DLL files in folder "\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft shared\NoteSync Forms".
You can find a install log file named "wcesetup.log" in the ActiveSync installation folder, in which it reccored everthing copied/replaced during installation. Some DLL were not copied/replaced, due to previous installation.
Just remove the DLL files which were not installed correctly. Then re-install, your problem should by solved.
Hopefully it's helpful.
Sorry for the late update. I solved my problem - I reinstalled windows! Well, apparently I had no choice for I already tried everything I could find in the forums.
installed activesync 4.0 due to curiosity.
failed to sync.
tried to re-install 3.8, but activesync failed to "pop-up" during startup. failed to maximize as well. indicates "Connected" at system tray.
it is such a great thing we have forums and threads like these.
after spending hours of trying to figure out what's wrong, it only just took me a few minutes to read this thread and fix the prob!
deleted files using WCESETUP as reference. some files didnt want to be replaced since they are "version 4.0.4343" and source file is older (from activesync 3.8 ). whew.
Still don't work
U said u deleted some files using 'wcesetup' can u explain yourself. I tried the above deleteing dll in nsync folder. That didn;t work.
Please this just keeps going and going and i need to fix it. And i don;t fancy reloading my machine to complete it
Thanks in advance
ok i can give some info
remove activesync from you pc
remove the XDA from the cradle
and use taskman to stop wcesmgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
go to control panel and remove activesync
restart pc
go to program files\microsoft activesync and delete all fire there or (if you have pocket pc apps instaled from the desktop backup it cos all cabs are there)
then if your xda as BUZmobile 2005 you MUST use activesync4
else activesync 3
dont use any type of anti-virus/firewall when using activesync4 cos it will prevent a good connection
after that install it again
for activesync4 is better to have outlookXP (outlook2003) and open it i did have some problems sync notes with it closed
well post what appened
Guys, I have a new problem now. I flashed my Xda to WM2005 again, using Buzz's ver. 1.6a
Activesync 4 (build 4343) installed fine but now, when I conect my Xda2, AS opens alright, but it doesn't prompt for a new partnership. Intead, the icon keeps on spinning and then I get an error on my device: "Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in Network settings." Please help...
I somehow made it sync! But now I'm back to the same problem in the first post! Now ActiveSync stays minimized and I cannot get it maximized! Please...
Try to disable windows firewall ... solved my activesync (via usb) problem

Old post but this is exactly what's happening to me. Cannot open the window? What is the solution????
i've tried to install AIM... and a webcam program.. both of which install through active sync.. however everytime I try I get the following message on my phone...
"Installation of (whatever).CAB was unsuccessful." and that's about all I get.
Also whenever I connect the phone to my PC is says it's unable to successfully syncronize and asks me to reconnect the device.
MS's support site has been less than helpful... any help you all can give would be greatly appriciated....
Installation problems.....
I am having the same problem too.
Even after a hard reset when I try and install Sprite Backup & Agenda Fusion I keep getting the install error: 'cannot be installed, try another location'
It's driving me up the wall! I would have thought after a hard reset this wouldn't be an issue. I'm now the proud owner of an MDA Pro (Universal) that I can't use because the software I want to install won't install.
Can anyone help me please?
Hi,
Couple of things you might consider / try: -
Establish an activesync connection, then use the "explore" button, navigate to your staorage card, and manually copying the .cab file from your pc to the storage card.
Then on the treo go to file explorer, storage card, and run the cab from the card.
The other thing is to check that you're using activesync 4.1 or later - updates are a free download from MS.
Hope this helps
Angus
Thank you for your suggestions.
Unfortunately i've already tried copying the CAB files straight to the device and launching them produces exactly the same result.
I'm also already using Activesync 4.2 latest version.
Is there anything else I can try?
judging from your sig, you're using a pretty old rom version... I would definitly upgrade it and then give it another go...
On my QTEK I cannot get avantgo installed. Tried all different installation options (via active sync, cab install, OTA, main memory or on storage card) and all hints I could find like softreset before installation. Always the error message "Installation fehlgeschlagen" means "installation not successfull". It always stops at the very beginning of the installation process, when just the first square of the progress bar is visable.
It is not an upgrade problem as alrady the initial installation failed - I never succeeded to install avantgo. But maybe the former installations have left over something uncompleted which a new fresh installation after soft resets cannot recreate. Installation with WM2003 was much much better but this is common sense anyway.
Can anybody tell me what type of type of installation commands take place when installing the avantgo cab to find out waht was left over on my PPC? Or des anybody have similiar problems (haven't found any in the forum).
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.
http://www.google.com/cse?cx=000825...igned&sa=Search&cof=FORID:0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
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?

Hi guys,
Just got my new Touch Diamond on Thursday and so I'm trying out all the awesome software on here! Except I can't...
I've installed Advanced Config, GSen, and Diamond TF3D Config. I've tried to install:
-DiamondHologram
-TomTom 7 for Diamond (TTN_7.450.9028.cab)
I just get a notification saying "Installation of name of cab was unsuccessful".
I haven't done any ROM upgrades, unlocks. I have only installed the new Google Maps 2.2.0.19 and the .NET 3.5.
Is there any reason why I can't install these applications? It's doing me nuts because I can't install half of these wicked apps!
Thanks guys
James
Can anyone help? Please?!?
Same here... and i'm going mad. Seems this issue affects random cabs. I succesfully installed your same TomTom version, but I can't install G-sensor Calibrate, or even TotalCommander...
I tried to update to Project V3.3 but issue is still there with the same cabs.
Any ideas?
I also tried disabling security warning by using Schap's Advanced Config. Nothing changed.
random
as you said it is a random effect... same prb here.... but i saw something odd...
i downloaded a cab with opera installed on htc and selected "open" when it asks what to do with the file... download complete but instalation unsuccessfull.
i've downloaded the same file but saved it on the storage and after that i installed... and surprise it worked! maybe it is a memory prblm.... i don't know!
this method does'nt work with every cab
Weird thing! I re-downloaded two cabs, moved to diamond... installation succeded. But i still not know if it was because of corrupted cabs or a Diamond problem.
Anyway I'll try to do a simple cab corruption check (try open the cab with a compressor like 7zip wich is free) for the next cabs.
Just for ask: did you download your "cannot install" cab with a download manager?

no... just using opera from the diamond
Same problem here... I have some CABs which dont fail and some which fail... Very anoying problem
I confirm i solved my problems by downloading WITHOUT any download manager or download accelerator all cabs on my pc, then check them with 7zip, then copy to my Diamond and install.
It's a bit strange way to get cabs installed but it's a safe method.
You can also choose to use download managers or download with your pda to download cabs, but you have to check them later if they don't install and... re-download them.
I also found solution which someone could explain....
I upload all SW using active sync and not USB drive and all what was not working now works.
So what is wrong here?

I have the same problem when the device - an o2 XDA Diamond - is connected in "Disk Drive" mode.
Whenever I transfer files from a Windows Server 2003 system (w/o Service Pack) to the "Internal Storage" of my Diamond the files become corrupted on the device.
This happens with any file type, but only with larger files - they become corrupted when they are several megabytes in size.
This doesn't happen randomly, it happens every time.
Reading large files from the "Internal Storage" works without problems.
When I transfer the very same files from a Windows XP system then they are OK on the device.
Also when I transfer the files in "Active Sync" mode the files are OK, but the "Active Sync" transfers are randomly aborted and the sync is lost.
I knew I'm not the only one with that problem, but I never found any information.
The ROM is the newest official one, 1.93.207.2.
Of course the Windows Server 2003 system transfers large files to other flash storages - camera, card reader and other Pocket PCs - without any problems.
My only advice is to transfer the cab to your internal storage using disk drive option the disconnect your Diamond and see if that works. e.g navigate to the cab using diamond file explorer then double tap on cab should install ok then
Sorry, doesn't work for me, but I thought that it was clear. (Because I wrote all info, like Service Pack, etc.)

You dont understand this... The file is corrupted while transfering via USB Drive but OK if we use ActiveSync... We know how to install CAB files. there is not problem.
BTW, I have Win2000 so it might be same as mentioned 2003...
I will try on another system and see how it works.
I just installed Windows XP SP3 on my machine: SAME PROBLEM!!
thedino, what mainboard do you have and how old is it and what is its USB version (1.0, 1.1, 2.0)? I have a K7S5A with USB 1.1.
For now I have to assume that HTC produced crap and that I'm gonna send my Diamond back.
I bought an USB card for PCI and there is no problem when connecting the HTC Diamond to this card.
No data corruption at all.
So obviously it must be something with onboard USB chipsets, but it's definitely a problem on HTC's side,
else these onboard USB chipsets wouldn't work correctly with any other USB device.

I had the same problem (either "installation unsuccessful" or just gets stuck during installation). I was using changescreen v2.5 for handling the display rotation. Apparently this software has a conflict with the .cab installer. It was enough to disable changescreen, then run the .cab, then re-activate changescreen again.
Hope that this helps.

Temporary Fix
Try this
Rename the cab file with a different extension, eg TotalCommander.cab to TotalCommander.txt. Do this on your computer.
Select the file within Windows Explorer and do the usual "Edit -->Copy" to copy the file.
Establish ActiveSync connection with your Diamond and using "File Management" select the Internal Storage of your Diamond. Then select "Paste" to paste the file into the internal storage of your DIamond. Rename the file back to having the .cab file extension by using the explorer shell you opened through ActiveSync.
Unplug Diamond from the USB and ensure ActiveSync on your Diamond is not active. Using file explorer program on your Diamond tap on the cab to install it.
The only alternative is uninstall all extra apps you have put on one by one and try to install other cabs as some of these may conflict with the cab install OR you can update your ROM from the 1.93 series to the 2 series.
Let me know if this temporary fix works. Best of luck.
