ive been messing around for 2 days now. and its driving me nuts.. if someone could help me out on this it would be great this is my first windows based phone so im abit of a newbie.

If it is a true WM theme..
It should have a extension .tsk
You just need to place it in your Windows folder!!

Strange, did you buy your MDA compact/JAM at the Suq behind Bab Al-Yemen? :wink: No, thanks galore for trying, but I did the hard-rest (was needed anyways). Will upload later...
FYI included my screenshot, with show-all files option on...
(click the image to open it, even if it's not showing)
WINXPSP2, USB2.0, MDA Compact T-Mobile (Dutch/English)
[email protected] did you buy your MDA compact/JAM at the Suq behind Bab Al-Yemen?
i got it from dubai.....
and very strange that i can't view the file using windows... tho the option of showing all hidden files is checked...
winxp sp2---imate jam + imate ppc --- usb 2.o + firewire
maybe i can't view it because my windows xp isn't Dutch....
Could you please upload the keybddr.dll, I also don't have it but someone at Howard Forum's made me believe I need this file so i can map the button of my wired headset.
Wow i thought i waz d only yemeni here>

You can't copy the file of the device because its in ROM.
The OS prevents files in ROM from being copied from the device because of something called XIP that is used.

New MDA, installing.... noob quesitons.

Hi, I just bought my MDA, and i been searching n i found registry wizard, how do i install that its cab file? in my MDA? what kinds software i need on my pc, to transfer stuff? and how do i back up my whole phone or something so if something goes wrong i could always restore? can someone ask my few quesiton. thank you soo much in advance.

^^^ just right click on the cab file. and select cabviaacticesync. then when you sync your mda it will install. you can delete any programs off your phone in the settings.
try that. that helps for people that cant figure it out. but all you would normaly do is move the cab file to you mda.
are you using windows vista or xp? if xp, download the latest version of active sync from Microsoft.com. If using vista get the windows mobile device center from the same place. Connect by following instructions, then explore the advice and drop the .cab file somewhere on it. Pick up your phone; open file explorer; and click on the file you put there. .cab files do everything themselves.
As far as backing everything up, i dont know the best way to do it. Just put stuff on your comp, thats what i do.
oh and next time, please try and search. Other people are going to yell at you

Any developpers intrested in helping us out

Here you go:

You can drag and drop CABs there, or ever better, associate .CAB files with it in Vista, so, all you need to do to install a CAB is a double click (while having ActiveSync on of course)
wow so fast reply.thank u so much..i hope it works on vista.
i have tried this already but not working on vista..its says file cant be accessed!!even in admin mode

^^this works fine for me on vista, i just right click on the cab then send to, WinCE cab installer
Doesn't work for me. Get access denied. And what's worse: you can't uninstall the damn thing.
Edit:
Found it, just remove the Send to entry and delete cabinst.exe from Windows folder.

even i am getting that file access denied.what to do???
Having recently upgraded to Windows 7, I bumped into this issue as well and googled my way to this thread, but found no solutions like you guys.
It seems that all would be well if I turned off User Account Control, which, however, I don't really want to.
Thus I did more searches and found the following article:
Selectively disable UAC for your trusted Vista applications
Although the steps described in the above article did not prevent a UAC prompt from popping up, my installation of WinCE CAB Installer works now.

hey firez can u plz post me the files as the above provided link does not have the proper image file (corrupted files) would be very thankful if u can post them ..............
actually...
The file links are right here in xda-developers just search for keywords
windows 95, windows xp etc.
I lost the bookmarks sorry...
But if I were you, don't waste time trying this 'cause it's really slow and you have to edit the boot file to make it work with Athena (which I have now forgotten too)
