Here is your cab - unzip and you will find it!
I just got my wing today. i've been trying to overclock it for over an hour. =/. i dled BatteryStatus.0.04 from some dude on the forum. I don't know what to do after.... i extracted to batterystatus.. draged the folder inside the mobile. my phone just won't recognize it.. Please don't flame... i know i'm not the smartest. Please i need help. someone? i want my wing to run smoother >_<. i don't know how to install it in my phone =/ someone please?
its a .cab, right?
use file explorer and click on it.
When you downloaded the file it is most likely a cab file but might show up as a zip file. Check the file name and if it ends in .cab the just copy that file to your phone. Then go under you file explorer and click on it to install it. Then have fun with the new program.
Thanks a lot guys, i got it. i appreciate it
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.

Thx guys for great help
I have been all over this site, ppcgeeks and sprintusers and maybe I am on brain overload, but I do not understand how to install manila files. I have done programs and cabs. I have all sorts of tweaks and changes on my diamond. I am trying to change just my icons. i have downloaded many of the files that people create, but cannot figure out where to get them to install. any help anyone could pass on will be sooo appreciated. 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.
so why use total commander and not just drag the manila into window\, pls. fill me out with more details. Thank you.

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.

I like to tinker around and just need a file cabbed so it copies and overwrites the version in the windows folder. File attached, and I'l give my thanks now!

You do know you can use total commander and just drop it into windows....right.
Thanks for the cab! I wanted it for UC for a ROM so I would have to do that every time!
Ok heres my dilema:
I wan't to cook in loads of manila files, but theres a few different versions of each one, and they aren't going into windows.
its better I explain it, heres an example:
Root Folder
\Folder 1
¬FileX
\Folder 2
¬FileX
\Folder 3
¬FileX
How can I do this? is I cant put the same file (FileX) in the files folder of a package as it has the same file name... The only way I can think of is to have a seperate package for each invidual file, and considering theres over 40 files, its going to take a long time!
Are there anymore efficient ways to do this? Thanks

If all these files go into "\Windows", there will be only one in the end ... not 40. Meaning the last "FileX" your kitchen finds will have overwritten all the others ...
You can't end up with all these files, without doing a little bit of legwork.
When you cook a ROM, all the files end up in \Windows, and are then moved around as required.
So, you could either cook all the files in with different names (so they don't overwrite) and then move them using a provxml or initflashfiles.dat, or you could cab up all the files, and run the cab after first boot.
The easiest way is to use a cab or to put everything in a zip file and use an 'inzipall' mortscript to unzip the folders wherever you want during customization.

Hmm the cab sounds like a good aproach, although still I wouldn't be able to have more than one manila file with the same name in the cab.

Cab files do allow you to specify the paths, so they do allow you to have files with the same name. WinCE CAB Manager is a good choice to create cabs. You can then use RunCC / Autorun/ XDA_UC to install it during the first boot.

Just take a look at this package; it has a zip file, a mortscript, and the add2config that you need. Here's a mortscript package that you can use.
You could also rename the files for example "1_FileX", "2_FileX" and have initflashfiles.dat rename it to the filename you want it to be, like so:
Directory("\Folder_1"):-File("FileX","\Windows\1_FileX")
Directory("\Folder_2"):-File("FileX","\Windows\2_FileX")

But that would really clog up your ROM, so the mortscript way is better.

Yes but putting the files in will overwrite eachother, as they have to have the same file name

Thanks I dont understand what the mortscript for is (the one from 4shared) but Im using the add2config package, I think I get it I will let you know when its finished cooking. Although I am having a problem where none of my add2config packages are working so it might be useless

Yeah but the files have to keep the same name
You need mortscript support cooked into your rom one way or another if you're going to use zip files; that's what the 4shared package is for.

That's ok if you're talking a couple of files, but if you're talking a few dozen (or more), then putting together all the initflashes scripts will get tedious.

Did you get my message?
and yeah, it seems your mortscript may be easier If I can get add2config to work lol
