I got my TC yesterday and it´s really nice.
First time i missed to stop the automatic install of the HTP software but after i saw what has been installed, i made a hard reset and stopped this.
The only feature i now see ihave to install is the camera, or are there some other IMPORTANT things which have been installed automatically?
Are there tools installed in ROM or why can´t i see them in the software removal list?
The only software you will see in the list is software that you install yourself.
Software cooked in the rom is not available in the list to remove.

Hi Folks!
I´ve one problem with my HTC Touch Diamond (WM 6.1):
When i am downloading Software (f.e. DiamondHologram_v1.0.cab) it get saved as DiamondHologram_v1[1].0.cab. when i want to install it, it doesn´t work.
Some Ideas???
Installing .cab
How did you install it? .cab files need to copied to your device and executed there (by tapping on them). If you've installed this way, then you have installed properly. If you have an issue with the software not working for some reason, you need to read the thread where you got the software from.
Please be aware, most of the software developed here requires .NET CFv3.5 installed on your device. This isn't on your Diamond when you buy it (it's running v2.0). You can get this from Microsoft's download area for free. If you search, you may even find it here in this forum somewhere.
Tried installing PocketSheild, and get an errormissing method exception this app requires a newer version of MS.net compact Framework than the version instaled on this device (?? the phone is only 3 weks old ??)
How do you find which version is on the phone? Whats the implications of installing a newer version (and which one do i choose!)?
thanks
\windows\cgautil.exe will tell you. I think WM 6.1 only comes with CF2.0 by default, although HTC certainly could have put CF3.5 in their default installer software (stuff that installs once only after a hard reset). I can't tell whether mine did this or whether I did it by hand. Nevertheless, you should be able to download/install it from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en. There should be no issue installing it side-by-side with 2.0.
thanks, managed to downoad it, but how do you install it?
If you don't use Activesync, you may want to get just the cab file instead. Just google for NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab, then instal like any other app, to the main memory.
Also, whilst you're about it, google netcfcfg.cab. This app lets you set windows CF policy, so that all apps which need CF2.0 to run will automatically use your newly installed CF3.5, which is apparently better and more stable.
The file sizes should be 2644KB and 34KB respectively.

Run it on your PC and then next time you connect your device via activesync, it will push and install the CAB on your phone. Well, that's the idea anyway..

Try the HTC 3600 forum section, I guess they might know more relevant information. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=313
cheers!!!
works just fine. copy NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab, install, soft reset and you're ready to go. Thanks!!!
First problem i have, whenever i try to use the windows update i get the following message:
Connection to update server was not available. Check our data connection settings and ensure the device date and time are correct.

Date & time is correct, mobile connects to websites ok so i dont see why it wont connect?
while googling this, i found theres a ROM upgrade for the phone aswell, do i need it? the phones 6months old and has ROM version 1.56.405.1
The main reason im wanting to use windows update is because i've tried to install a couple of apps and it tells me i need an upgraded .net framework, is there any other way to do this? and how can i find the latest version?
thanks if anyone can help.
dont waste your time...
in short ,dont waste your time with windows update,it is not used ,at all.
windows update (according to interviews on FACEBOOK..windows mobile, with relevant persons from MICROSOFT.....) is only for very crictical updates and they have never used it ,(as far as i know...?)
best is to navigate to htc website ....
http://www.htc.com/mea-en/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=179&act=sd&cat=all
..make sure to select your country ..top right of webpage ,
note, above link i provided... is for htc middle east and africa...and upgrades might not be applicable to your country...!!!!
the .net issue is seperate issue..has got nothing to do with upgrade..!!..
it is used for certain applications to function...
, google for ..something like ...."netcf 3.5 download "....or/
try this link and make sure it is what you are looking for.....!!!!!
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
follow link..it will take you to microsoft web page (dont worry, it is a free applications ) ,but be aware ,the application is about 33 megabytes,and download it to your pc.
afterwards , you have to connect phone to pc and install from pc.to phone..reboot phone and you application should work.?
( do not try and install from phone ,it wont work )
good luck

From what I can see you already currently have the latest ROM upgrade that is also available via HTC's website, so there is no need for you to download and install it again. At the time, the ROM was released to improve the overall functionality of the phone and fix some existing issues with it.
Here is what the ROM upgrade contained:
Improved Functions and Fixes
1. Updated the Connection Setup Database.
2. Improved emergency call connections while using Airplane Mode.
3. The GPS position updating speed has been enhanced.
4. A Title bar display flicker in TouchFLO 3D has been corrected.
5. Fixed multiple browsing issues.
Go to this link, and download and install the NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab to your device. After you installed NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab, reset your phone.
thanks alot guys, appretiated
Since installing this, im getting quite a few error reports
"A problem has occured with... please tell microsoft about this program"
Reflashing the rom might help.

In that case, (if i was in your shoes) i would try to hard reset first then install the .NET cab first and then any other programs you want afterwards. Then hopefully those nasty errors will disappear
So I flashed Energy ROM not too long ago and I had to back up a number of applications on my phone to my SD card before I did it. Knowing that I might flash newer ROMs as they come along, I figured that I might as well keep everything on my SD card permanently. The only problem with this is that WM doesn't know it's installed. That is to say that whenever I update an application, the device treats it like a new installation and doesn't ask me if I want to uninstall the old version first. Secondly, certain applications (like most of Astraware's games) don't appear to be happy opening unless they're installed properly (I assume it's expecting certain registry keys to be there).
So what have most of the ROM flashers on this forum done to make sure all of their applications are working right immediately after a new flash?

If you flash a ROM, you have to reinstall all the applications. Some of the ROMS will automatically install your cab files if you set it up. WM has to update the registry for each program, and the details may be different for each ROM, and for each time a particular ROM changes versions. So, yes, you ARE doing a new install.

But really isn't it silly to do all of that work?
Surely there is something you can change in Windows Mobile that will tell it a specific application is installed on the device. For the registry keys, I can simply write a Mortscript that adds and updates the keys for all of the applications I typically want on the device. If I add an application, I just add its keys to the script. Ideally, I'd just like to run this script every time I flash a new ROM and have all of the dependencies set up automatically. I'm not sure, however, what I need to edit in order to make the operating system thing an application is installed (basically it appears on the "Remove Applications" list)
Yuu need something like this then [UC]XDA_UC Autoconfiguration User To User Thread[23-06-2009]
You should take note that I'm not sure if that's the latest version. But if you throw all your cabs in the XDA_UC folder and follow the instructions of the thread there you'll have it installing ALL your aps automatically when you flash a new rom

I believe that the ROM has to support this feature. So far as I know my ROM (NRG) does not, for example. But if it is supported it is great.

Well, I actually don't plan to be changing ROMs all that often. So far the latest NRG ROM is working well for me.
Yes, it is a lot of work, but I have all my .cab files in a single directory. So installing them is not that hard. My experience is that this method (or one of the auto install methods) provides the highest possibility of a stable WM environment.
I believe that you could probably create a script to put in the registry entries, but what if the ROM version has changed locations in the registry? Anyway, if you DO develop such a script, be sure and post the results on the forums!
the latest NRG roms do support this.

Hi,
I'm looking for a bit of help with this if possible, basically at work, i have to constantly setup a load of HTC P6500 devices all running on windows mobile 6.1.
On each device I have to install certain programs from an sd card and update quite a few system settings.
Is there any way this can be done with a batch file perhaps, that would install all the software and update all the settings I need it to?
"XDA UC" could be what you are looking for, but it needs to be cooked in into WM.
I think there already is such a machanism in WM, but I don't really remember it's name...
.cab
make a .cab which has all the programs and settings.
maybe RunCC is in your ROM...
thanks for the help everyone, managed to get around this using SPB backup trial which let me essentially clone the device, and restore this back to the rest.
