as far as i understood the merged rom has an older version in it, but I don't have it on my xdaii.
If it has installed itself on your himalaya, uninstall instructions are in the thread

thanks M4io
but neither winzip nor win rar recognized the file i downloaded on the thread you have posted.
wnen i click on the download it shows.
(download the 1.34 mb file, 'download PHP').
now what i want to know is what is PHP?
and why dosen't the winzip & win rar recognized's this cab file.
thanksin advance.

Install Caller_ID_W..

PHP is a language which runs on the webserver. so when you click on download.php you actually start a service on the server, which gives you the requested file.
now these CAB-files are pocketpc cab files ad are kind of setup programs for PocketPC , so you have to copy the CAB to your pocketpc and execute it there.
You can execute it by putting it in your extended rom, modify the config.txt and hard reset (I hope you know what hard reset means/implies)
or simply by tapping on it in PPC file explorer. In this case the CAB will disappear after installation. But if you have a previous version of Caller_id installed, you best uninstall it first : by editing the registry as explained in the forementioned thread, deleting as much files from the previous thread as it allows you to, soft reset, and delete the rest of the files.
I sure hope you understand all this, because if you don't know what php is, don't know what PPC CABs are, then I would advice you not to mess around too much with your PPC internals.

i know what is cab file.
but i wanted to know weather the file is in zip format cus win zip doesn't recognize it and even when i paste it on my ppc it doesn't install it simply says (there is no application associated with ''caller_id_wwe'' run the application first,then open the file from with in)

sounds like something corrupt during download
clear your internet cache and download again, don't unzip/unrar it, just copy the complete CAB file to your PPC
almost everything is installed with cab, so it would be weird that no association exists. Or during the copying to PPC maybe the conversion went wrong.
I'm really guessing now, just keep trying.

INSTALING .cab FILES!!!! HOW YOU DO IT...IM NEW TO THIS LOL

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?

done it lol, when i was dl the .cab file it displays on my PC as a winrar file so i was automatically extracting the files (all six of them lol), realy all i had to do was put the Downloaded file straight onto my XDA lol. dummm asss

i'm glad you got there in the end :lol:

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.

problem downloading and installing cab files on Htc Wizard

Hi i must be doing something incredibley stupid but i can't work out what! I click to download a cab file it downloads it as zip file onto my laptop I open this file which then opens about six other files I transfer them to my Wizard and double click on them and the wizard asks me what program to open the file with ?
Please help what idiot thing am i doing wrong?

Transfer the CAB file to your device as one file, do not unpack it.
Then run the CAB file on your device.

SPV2000 to WM5 or WM6

Hi all,
I'm probably being really stupid but i'm going round in circles trying to upgrade an SPV2000 to WM5 or 6. Every flash i've tried reports a country or hardware missmatch. Can anyone supply a flash that will work?
Many thanks in anticipation.
Bryan

look at my signature click the WIKI link and read
or download the archive i attached, extract it to folder on your pc, get the nk.nbf from the rom you want to flash and copy it to the folder in which you are extracted my archive, then put your device in bootloader mode and run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe

Help please

I just purchased vegas pool shark for my hd2 and I received 2 files a setup.exe file and a VegasPoolSetup.msi. The read me file says that I need ActiveSync for the process of installation but I have a Mac and don't have that. I was wondering if somebody here could make a .cab file with those files for me? Honestly that game was purchased by me and I have proof just in case somebody needs to verify it b4 helping me. If this request is not allowed in this forum, Mods, please delete this thread. Thanks in advance...

if you can run the .exe in a virtual pc, even without active sync, it 'should' install the cabs and such into a subfolder of /program files/, ready to be installed on th ephone next time it connects (which of course it wont). you can then browse to that folder, find the arm cab, and copy that to your sd card.

try 7zip and open up the exe and see if the cab is in there just extract it thats what ive done with a few things

Thank you guys.
