You cant use the orginal filebrowser, you can use totalcommander

does anyone know who to install the manila files?!? because when i move it in windows folder i get an error about you can't overwrite it, because those files is used by windows or something like that.

I use Resco File Explorer (not freeware) to copy and overwrite files. Had no issues. Though it costs, it is a must have program. Has a great registry edit that comes along with the purchase.

totalcommander is freeware and it will solve your problem.. follow the link below to get the apps

Good regedit for PocketPC WM2003SE

Anyone can suggest a good regedit for PocketPC WM2003SE?
I try PHMRegEdit, but looks like it is for old version of PocketPC.
Thanks
Arto
Registry Editor
Resco Registry from Resco Explorer, last version 5.13, but actually i still like PHM.
I can't even get PHM Regedit to install on my Qtek S100. Looks ok when I run the installer, but nothing is ever actually installed.
As it is still my favourite I have tried a number of times, with hardresets between, but no success.
I believe PHM registry editor is what we called here a "green" software, i.e. you can just copy and paste the exe file anywhere you like and execute it and it will work. So if you have exe file (e.g. from a former installation, a backup or another ppc), you don't need to install it.
Tried again by getting the CAB file instead of the desktop installer. Worked like a charm!
bamse,
Where you put or run the .cab file?
Thanks.
Arto
nowhere in particular : a .cab file ca normally be executed from anywhere...
Are you using cabinstall ? Because sometimes it conflicts with some .cab files. It doesn't work for instance with the icon .cab file of Agenda Fusion : when you click on this cab file, nothing happens... but it's the only .cab file that doesn't work for me...
Hope this helps...
Just copy the cab file to anywhere on your device. Then on the device, open up explorer and browse to the location of the cab. Double clicking on the cab will install it.

After this you don't need the cab on your device anymore so if it has not been automatically removed you can just delete it.
If it has not been automatically removed it means :
- that you're using CabInstall (because miscrosoft standard installer deletes tha .cab file once installed !)
- or that nothing has been installed because of an error

How about using Tascal RegEdit? I've been using it for a long time.

Tried it when I couldn't get PHM Regedit to install but didn't like it. With TRE you can't even search through the registry, right?

issues installing S2U2

Okay it says its a cab. While I am very new to wm phones I have been able to install a ton of other cabs.
When I go to install this fist off it doesnt look like a cab it has the name and the windows flag and .rar as the extension.
When I click on it I get the following.
There is no application associated with "s2u2-0.3-WM5". Run the application first, then open this file within the application.
This is supposed to work with WM6 and I know others here have done it. I am just not so bright when it comes to this and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I tried just copying it into the windows folder but that didnt work either.
You have to extract the rar file to get the cab file inside for installation. Pls try again.
thanks
thanks mate works like a charm

Changing TouchFlo's Shortcut

I have a Sprint Touch with TouchFlo preinstalled. Instead of opening up the cube, I would like for it to open SPB Shell. I tried the FTouchFlo config tool that I found here from a search but it didn't work with my Touch. Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks all!
Did you make sure the config program was in the same folder as TouchFlo? I know it's key with Ftouchflo.
Otherwise you may have to edit the .config file manually.
robby im in the same boat as you. what i've found is that we can't do anything to touchflo, period. we have to download Ftouchflo and THEN use touchfloconfig. our native touchflo will only work for scrolling and opening the cube.
You guys may want to check this thread.

How did you disabe biotouch.exe?
I followed the thread that netzcoyote linked to. I have a touch and it does not have either .lst file that contains the startup contents.
This shouldn't be this hard!

Well, in order to DIsABLE a process, you can kill it with a process manager. I use SK Tools for that. In order to keep it from opening, you either reomve the lnk to biotouch exe from Windows/StartUp, OR, if it doesn't show there, you remove it from LaunchStartupApp.lst. This is a HIDDEN file in Windows/, so you have to use a file explorer like GSFinder to see it.
Hope that helped.

I tried finding it with GSFinder in the .lst file (did a search for all .lst files) and in the startup folder with no luck. SKTools and Memaid couldn't find it anywhere. I can't figure out how this is starting!
Does anyone have an idea where to find this? I did a search in the registry, tried SKTools and Memaid with no luck at all!

Fist of all you don't need to look in the registry. I use Total commander as a file browser with works great! (see attachment). Look for LaunchStartupApp.lst or Startupapp in the main windows directory. Should be working, you have wm 6 I assume?
Let me know.

Even with Total Commander, I can't find either file in the Windows directory or anywhere on the device. I am running 6.1. I have DCD's latest ROM for the Touch. He cooked up two versions. One with the cube and one without. I have tried both. The one without the cube just gives me an error about trying to start biotouch. I can't disable it with either ROM because I can't figure out how this is starting. Arrrrggg!! Thanks for your help!

How to use and install things on your HTC Diamond.

Hi.
Can anyone of u plz tell me how to use open gl and how to install thongs like Diamond cubes themes and more. Plz teach me how to do this cuz i cant get this things to work. I wana use me htc for something funny not just use it like a phone.
plz help me if u can.
I am not an experienced person, but I try to answer you.
you need a file called CAB. Download the CAB file for a particular program.
Never unzip it. The CAB file itself acts as a exe file.
1) Sync your diamond to the PC with active sync.
2) copy the cab file to your diamond
3) double click on the cab file.
4) Install either on your ROM or internal memory
Good luck!
Google is your friend.
If your new to Pocket PC devices, check this out.
Regards,
Carty..
Thx guys for great help

I have Diamond TF3D Config, I have Diamond Tweaks and I have PHM RegEdit...what am i missing?

Copy them to your \Windows folder with Resco Explorer or Total Commander.

Because ActiveSync/File Explorer can't copy files with System attribute and Total Commander can. Apart from that, it is a way better file manager than the system one. And unlike the desktop version, it is free.

How do I install .cab files?

As the title says... Oh, and .exe files too, I can't seem to run them when my HD's plugged in... :/ Don't know what to do, to install games at all...
put them in your phone folder (any foldler) then explore this folder on your phone with file explorer an click on the cab to install.
Is File Explorer a 3rd party app? Haven't seen it on my device before...
EDIT:
Oh! Found it! Hehe ^^' It's just a different language on mine, and didn't really notice it... Thanks!
The easiest way to do that is a little application (91 KB.) called "WinCE cab installer.exe", that installs a cab from the desktop to any device connected via active sync or WMDC.

File explorer should be standard on any wm device, its the yellow envoloppe with the magnifyingglass, you might have to add it to your programs tab
Just use that and navigate to the folder you have copy the .cab to. Then all you need to do is tab on the .cab and it should install itself, just like a .exe or .com file.
To install .exe all you need to do is click on it(from your pc) and then turn on active sync while connected to your pc.

This actually makes a lot of sense as it saves the extra effort of copying to- and navigating on the phone. I googled a bit for it but non of the downloadlinks are working (4 me). Can you show us where you got it (or upload it somewhere)?
