Cannot download files with WM6.1 with PIE - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

Hi,
Since I upgraded to WM6.1 on my Touch Plus, the HTC European ROM, I cannot download anything directly onto my device using the browser built into the phone from the internet.
I cannot download Google maps or YahooGO! cabs directly using the built in Internet Explorer browser.
I didn't have this problem when using the standard T-Mobile UK Rom that was supplied with the phone. It starts the download, downloads a 0Kb file then says it's failed to install the program.
Has anyone else had this? I have also Hard Reset the phone, no joy!
Thanks

Anyone?
Any help would be appreciated

please can someone try downloading something from the internet using explorer on a niki running wm6.1 htc europe rom.I cant watch youtube vids either!I hate this rom,shud of left t-mob uk rom installd.thanks all.

Could someone give the complete address to these downloads since Pocket IE only downloads the PHP-files on attachments in these forums.

Thanks Talents, you've saved everyone alot of time there
Some of you may be interested in this:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Ma...500_WWE1.06.175/Orange_GPRS_Desconnect.sa.CAB
It adds a disconnect option to the GPRS popup. Only realised it was an Orange thing when i put the 1.12 rom on my M500 and saw it had gone.
some of the files you've attached say tmobile on them.. does that brand the phone? will i have t-mobile popping up on every app i open. I bought my jam from dubai and using it on cingular.. i'm also on the WWE rom, just wondering if these .cab's are compatible.
The cab files are compatible with all HTC Magician machines (i.e. i-mate JAM, O2 XDA mini, Qtek s100, T-Mobile Compact, Dopod 818, etc.) and will not pop up any brand or logo after installation.
thanks for that info, i will do these updates in about an hour. thanks again
Are these cab-files ripped of the default install on the windows-dir?
Fonix voicedial is eating a lot of memory of the ppc. The normal installation (downloadable at fonix) can install on the sd card, but the extended rom versions i have seen only install totally on phone memory

Use CAB-Installer. With that, you can choose where to install.

Many thanks for your efforts. Very informative.

Thanks for the effort mate, I shall have a play with those.
Will ask one more time: I am on holiday so my only internet-connection right now is with my Magician and GPRS. Pocket IE will not handle attachments on the forum (downloads the php-file). Could they be downloaded in any other way or could someone upload the cab-files to the ftp? Please..
EDIT: Of course I found the files on the ftp and succesfully downloaded them with resco. Sorry, should have looked better. Even so it is quite irritating that attachment downloading is not working with Pocket IE

I tried that.. but if the path is an hardcoded default in de cab, cab-installer uses that default
Also, i do not see the programs of the extended rom (when i install them myself) in my 'remove programs'-list.

In fact, downloading works in PIE. Just download the file (it'll show as download.php, correct) and then rename it to whatever it should be with the extension that it's supposed to have. Alternatively, when trying to download via PIE, in a "Download" popup dialog tap "Change" and change the name of the file to what it is supposed to be. After your download is completed, use your file explorer to locate the file and change the extension of the file from .php to a correct one.
WARNING
I just installed that poxy T Mobile UXC T-Mobile RC23 and it just hard reset my bloody Jam.

Aha! Thnx very much for that info mata!
But how does this work?! If I want to install for instance the Camera Wizard to update my camera, where do I have to install it? I asume it has to overwrite the original camera app, or can I really put it everywhere I want? And to make it clear... does this hard reset your device?!

Update to MIDLET Manager?

Hi
I've experienced lots of problems with the Wizard's midlet manager, especially when trying to use Opera Mini.
It sees I've got a working connection, but when loading any web page I get an error message - critical error kind of thing.
I hard reset my Vario several times hoping it would solve the problem... in vain.
has any update to the Midlet Manager been released? And where to get it from? I checked the TAO site, but no downloads are available from their site (they seem to ship direct to HTC and the likes).
Alternatively, what is the work around? I want to use the Midlet for Google maps and other midlets. Thanks
Download the attached zip file but DO NOT unzip it. Overwrite the one in \Windows on your PDA. Once your done, start up Midlet Manager then Menu -> About and confirm the following version numbers...
Runtime MIDP 2.0: v10.1.7.551 (Build 20060317)
That's the version I'm running and it works just fine with Google Local Maps and Opera Mini.
If after performing the above you still can't get Opera Mini working properly then I'd suggest uninstalling Opera Mini (tap and hold the icon and select uninstall) and then visit http://mini.opera.com in Pocket Internet Explorer and download Opera Mini again. If that page says something about recognising your device as an iPaq of some kind then just ignore it.
You may just want to scrap tao's manager and go for IBM's http://www.winmobiletech.com/sekalaiset/IBMJ9MIDP.zip
I haven't used it, but some people like it. It displays satelite images in google local too.

Keitaro: Where did you get that update from?
Thanks
thanks a lot for your speedy and helpful commnets. I will try both.
Thanks again

The zip file came straight from a fresh install of a 2.24 ROM
I've now tried the first solution (the update to Tao's MIDLET) and the midlet manager freezes then crashes as a result!
No good...
Any idea why it does that, and any other work around to the problem?
Cheers
Ok perform this step as well, download this file...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=12426
...and overwrite the ones found in...
\Application Data\Tao\intent
and
\Windows
I've just done that, but in vain. the Midlet Manager still freezed then crashes. I can't even uninstall my old version of Opera mini and / or install the new one. The Midlet Manager crashes before I can do anything...
Any suggestion?
Maybe I should go back to the original Manager?
Navigate to...
\Application Data\Tao\intent\app\jam\midlets
...and delete the operamini folder and see what happens then.
If Midlet Manager still locks up then by all means replace rofs_target.zip and target.img.zip back with the versions you had originally... assuming you did back them up first
Just out of interest, what ROM version are you running and what Midlet Manager version did you have prior to all this messing around?
Thanks Keitaro.
My ROM is T-Mobile's UK ROM 1.6.2.4 - I am waiting for T-Mobile to release the new ROM.
Maybe that's why the updated Midlet manager does not work.
I did not backup the target.img.zip file unfortunately.
Could anybody on the T-Mobile's 1.6.2.4 ROM upload their Windows/target.img.zip file here please?
I could then downgrade my Midlet Manager.
thanks
You can always install the IBM Manager.
It's not as pretty, but it works.

gamescan - just done it, and it works great.
Thanks
opera mini
i screw up my midlet by deleting the target.img. i want to have a fresh installation of opera mini. How will i uninstall the previous mini in my xda?

Problems with flash player...or shall i say LACK OF flash

HELLLLPPPP!!! I have been in and out of my TMobile MDA trying to get flash player to work...I've tried downloading the flashplayer 7 cab file...and it won't dowload...just a bunch of symbols pops up on my pda screen. What to do? :shock: There has got to be SOMEONE out there that can save the day....
I'm gonna assume you're trying to download the cab from your MDA. I had the same problem. Download the cab to your pc and run the file after syncing your phone.
thnx for replying...it did finally dowload to my MDA via ActiveSync...but when I go to certain sites that require flash player (like vh1.com), then it still says that I need to download flashplayer (even though I have it on my phone)....So, i dunno' whats going on !!
double checked what the site actually says....It says "flash PlugIn required"
Give Opera a try. With it, when you open a cab file on the internet you can choose to save a page, and rename it as something.cab.
Now I've tried to load vh1.com in opera on my Wizard and I also got note on missing Flash plugin. When I clicked to get it, I was taken to a OSX (PowerPC) page
Also, installing Pocket Plus adds a new submenu to PIE..Save As..which can help you override the problem you had downloading .cab files from your Wiz.
yeah...i got directed to the same download site....download mac osX :? .....when you find out a way to get all the good stuff playing on your wiz...can u let us know?

Can't install Isilo on HD

Hi
I am not able to install Isilo onto my Touch HD, very frustrating. I have tried both using CAB files directly on the phone, and also installing through activesync, but no luck. It gives the usual message on my PC saying the software is installed and to look on the mobile device for more instructions etc. But nothing happens on the Touch HD anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks
Bigmaz
I had a similar issue with Mobipocket - this seemed to be related to trying some of the earlier cooked ROMs and disappeared when I updated them. Have you tried one of the later ROMs?
I dont know anything about ROM's, what ROM should i be using?
Just looked on the HTC website and according to that ii have the most up to date ROM

HELP: Opera button disappeared

basically, i have been playing around with my opera to try and update it so i can view flash based content on websites within the browser.
ive managed to get this to work so now i can see youtube on the actual website! and also videos/sound files on the bbc website and other flash based websites.
i upgraded to opera 2808 and installed flashplayer7 for ppc from adobe and made a plugin file with a flash plugin in that too.
now my opera does work but i need to go into the opera file in explorer and click on the operaL file. it wont work if i go to the internet tab or to the programs list and choose it from there. the logo has dissappeared. i have the original orange ROM and havent had a windows movile before so have no idea how to change anything like the logos or to reset the programs buttons. if anyone can help i will happily buy you a beer!
