hi guys i recently posted a topic on o2 gprs probs. i have found the settings and downloaded them in .cab formatt. but how do i install them on to the fone or if not what folder do they need to be in?
i have placed them inthe ppc files directory and clicked to install bu it displays a message sayin they cant be installed.
cab files can be installed from any location
if they will not install maybe their are currupt
or for another cpu type then arm or xcale
i used the cab files from this forum. does anyone have the .cab files for XDA2 on o2 uk payg? would be a great help
here is where i got them. which 1 i need? and what i got to do wiv it?

Well the .cab files are the installation-packages for WinMobile. You need to transfer this .cab file direct to your device(or card) and via any file-exploring software start this .cab. The installation should be started. If you get an error,there can be few problems:
1.The .cab installation is for other processor type
2.or is it for a Smartphone device(PPC and SP are uncompatible(well WM5 has better compatibolity))
3.The .cab can be corrupted.
Now I want to say,that this direct in-device installation has some bad properties:
1. The .cab file is automatically deleted after installation(when your .cab isn't read-only)
2.The system install the software into a default folder only(\Program Files)-you cannot choose your own destination such as Storage,Storage Card etc..
This bugs solve this utility(below). I really recommend that.
ReLoad
This is a MortScript script written to simplify reinstalling cab files, and restoring files back to the device from a zip file on the trinity.
More information about MortScript at http://www.sto-helit.de
-v.01 Initial Release
Known Issues
-Cab files that initiate the installation of another cab file ie.Wisbar Advanced
-How to setup:
1)Extract Reload.rar to your storage card.
2)Place cab files in the CabsAuto folder if you want to the cab to be automatically installed to the device (installation to automatically install to the storage card is currently not available).
3)Place cab files in the CabsManual folder if you want to be able to choose where to install the cab.
4)Place file in the Backup.zip file that you want to be restored.
ie. If you wanted example.jpg to be placed in the \Windows folder, place example.jpg in the Windows folder of the zip file.
*Please note that the cab files placed in the CabsAuto folder need to conform to only asking the user for the installation destination, then showing installation successful/unsuccessful. Otherwise you might encounter some
problems. You should place cabs that don't conform in the CabsManual folder, or adjust these cab files with programs such as WinCE CAB Manager.
-How to use:
1)In the Reload folder, execute Run1st. Click ok the the window that pops up. This just installs MortScript
2)Execute Run2nd. This will initiate the script that will first install the CabsAuto, then CabsManual, and finally restore the files in the zip file.
Use at your own risk.

Thx, that's a good idea.
is there a way to have it restore registry entries from a .reg file?
Is there a way to install certain cab files on RAMDisk/Storage card without individually clicking the install option??
@racerx_
Currently there isn't a way to restore the reg file directly. But you can create a cab from the reg file and then have that cab automatically installed.
MortScript wasn't able to read in the reg files i saved with resco explorer, so I gave up on doing it this way. For right now the easiest way is to create a cab file with WinCE Cab Manager.
@c_shekhar
The best way to install the program to the Storage Card, backup the reg (and any possible files installed on rom), then create a cab from this.
This post has alot of good information on this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277727
yeah, i've been trying like a madman to get win ce cab manager to make a cab of my .reg file.. but when i click on 'import' and try to grab the .reg file it tells me it's only for registered versions of the program.. is there another way i'm not seeing? cause right now the only other options i see for registry entries is to manually create them one by one which doesn't sound very exciting hah
thanks for the help..
@racerx
What OS and version of WinCE Cab Manager are you running. I heard of some problems with the newest version of WinCE Cab Manager with Vista. I am running version 2.1.0.35.
If that isn't it, you might have run the program past its initial trial use.
hmm.. Win Ce CabManager is 2.1.0.50 running on xp.. still got 17 uses left.. sigh..
Maybe i missed something. Just in case, what button or command are you using to get your .reg file into WinCE? I was using the 'file' 'import' command.
@racerx
That's the same way I do it. I would find an older version and try it again.
Reload V0.2
I made a couple of changes to the script for a rom we are going to be releasing soon...it checks if Backup.zip exists and only does the unzip if it does...I also added a SDBackup.zip for files to unzip to Storage card (specifically exe's and dll's I've already upx'd to shrink them but reinstalling the cabs replaced them again so this puts them back)....

Very good soft, it works nice !!
The only difficulty for the french users is to replace in the script "Storage Card" by "Carte de stockage"
Thx men for this !!!
Nice soft,
I could use FAMAN WM6 on my trinity now !
French translation and modification is (seem to be) ok.
Just wait the OK from the boss and I'll give you !
Edit : Why don't you use the LOCK:Enabled in the header and LOCKDisabled on the end of the config file ? Thxs in advance.
I use SettingsSavior on my Trinity mainly for its similar auto-install functionality
Hello,
Thank you for this very useful tool
My .cab are removed after using Reload. How can I keep my .cab on my SD after a new installation ?
Thank you for your help.

and i don't know how to change the theme.

You have 2 possibilities:
1) download the exe file and execute it from your desktop.
2) download the cab file, copy it in your pocket pc, go to the directory in your pocket where you copied the cab file, click on it to install.
You don't have to open or dezip the files!
Is the theme file.
they all in a zip file and they told me unzip and put into director.....
@ocarlo. As i think you know no many about mobile shell or themes or windows mobile, zip, dat or whatever. SO please:
1. First search the Forum
2. Read in one of the many mobileshell threads here, it ist explained how to install different themes
3. read or post in first Noob-thread on this side
4. and then maybe post in one of the hundreds of mobile shell threads
- but dont open own threads with such questions, if you even cant explain what your problem is.
Hello all, I am having trouble with 2 cabs, Bing, and SPBTv2.1 (freeware)
Bing: I cant install as EXT because of the issue with all of its wav files showing up in Sounds and Notifications... I even edit app.dat to redirect install path and it still shows up there.
When I try to install as cab via config_ap.txt, I receive an error that bing cannot be installed.
I am trying to install it to my Start Menu folders called "Apps", "GPS" and "Internet" instead of top level of start menu.
SpbTV: I cant install as EXT because the Video wont stream.
When I try to install it as cab, I edit the cab with WinCE cab manager to change the shortcut to install to my Start Menu folder called "Entertainment", but it always installs in top level of start menu (even when nothing in the cab has that setting and I delete the shortcut).
Can anyone try their hand at editing the 2 cabs (within the zip files) and see if you can manage to place their shortcuts to the Start Menu folders I mentioned above?
Much appreciated!
Did u
Did u interest to try mortscript method ??then u CAN install ur cab normally and then u CAN move ur shortcuts to ur desired folder with move commands....
U have to morscript cooked in ur rom and then create a mortscript and launch it via config_ap.txt at first boot so after the flash ur shortcuts are in ur desire folder....
Tell me if u interested this method I will post the commands...
Thanks
I have HTC HD2 with Android 2.3.4 cyanmenMod, Typhoon v3.2. Problem is i can't run a cab file, I can't change themes, I can't install games, & i don't know which ROM exactly is best for this phone. When i open a .cab file it does'nt recognizes & another pop up window appears where i can different menu tabs & there is'nt any error running the file.
Please HELP
Hi welcome to xda. You can't run a cab file on an Android rom, you can only run cab files on Windowsmobile. In order to install application on your android build you have to be registered via googlemail.. for Androidmarket or you can download .apk (eg. gun bros.apk) files, copy them to your phone and install.
