Google Gears - HD2 General

Did anyone manage to get Google Gears working on the HD2?
The supplied opera version as the 10 beta 2 version are unfortunately not supported.
Therefor I tried Internet explorer which is supported.
However when downloading the installer it seems the HD2 cannot handle the file.
The .tsk file is mistaken for a theme file and will not install.

try to rename .tsk to .cab

issues installing S2U2

Okay it says its a cab. While I am very new to wm phones I have been able to install a ton of other cabs.
When I go to install this fist off it doesnt look like a cab it has the name and the windows flag and .rar as the extension.
When I click on it I get the following.
There is no application associated with "s2u2-0.3-WM5". Run the application first, then open this file within the application.
This is supposed to work with WM6 and I know others here have done it. I am just not so bright when it comes to this and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I tried just copying it into the windows folder but that didnt work either.
You have to extract the rar file to get the cab file inside for installation. Pls try again.
thanks
thanks mate works like a charm

How to install signed version of Opera Mini?

It doesn't seem like this should be so hard, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. How do you install the signed version of Opera Mini 4.1 on the T-Mobile Wing so that it doesn't ask permission to access the network every session?
You need the proper selector.utf file. Either this site or ppcgeeks has and opera mini tweaks package that will have it in there. There are regedits also. I keep the utf file on my card so I have it for when I flash. Goes into the Appb file folder in the windows folder. Click ok to overwrite. some googling will also help you find it.

Question from beginner! How to install programs?

Hi guys. First of all, I'm new to WMO. I've downloaded Gyrator 2, PCMKeyboard, and the TuneUp file. Now, I've transfered these to the phone, both on the SD-card, and in the internal memory. However, when I try to run them, from File Explorer, it opens them in what I think, is Opera. And the screen stays white, nothing happens. This goes for all the files. Can anyone explain me, in an easy way, how you do this?
you could be reading the link in my sig and let me know if it helps...
Thanks - but that didn't help. I actually did it exactly like you wrote it.
For those of you with Gyrator 2 installed, this is what happens to me:
I copy it to the storage card, then open the gyrator file. Files list up, like this:
_setup
00Events
0Gyrator
0Gyrator
And much more. The only file working, is of course the _setup file, which shows with a Opera-ikon, for some reason. So, if I try to run the _setup, a white screen appears, and nothing happens. If I try to run any of the other files, which shows with a Windows-ikon, I get an error, telling me to first open Gyrator 2, then run the file via the program.
For running gyrator you need also Net compact framework 3.5 installed.

I've installed gyrator in this way:
copied the gyrator install file to storage card
run the file using file explorer
after that I've installed also Net compact framework from the link above in the same way

It does indeed (I'll update the wiki page, cheers for that )
Bungieman - the SD tuneup .cab doesn't need it though - what happens when you try to run that?
Same thing, two files, one with "_setup", which has a Opera - ikon.
If this were PC windows, I'd say that somehow the .cab files had been associated to the wrong program.
Clicking a .cab ought to run it, not open it up and show you what is inside!
There should be no need to run the _setup manually - simply clicking the .cab should take care of all that...
I take it you haven't managed to install anything yet?
The HD is as it arrived in the box?
I had similar issue with another program. I saw opera setup icon, run it and there was only white screen in opera browser...
What I did wrong, was that I unpacked the .cab file on the phone's card - the PC showed me that it is packed file, like .zip or .rar and I extracted it to the phone.
So I had only to copy .cab file to phone's memory card and run it there (using file explorer) without extracting it. Then the program installed succesfully
You do know that you can just use your phones browser, find the file and click on it and then save it direct to your SD card? Much easier and then you just go to file explorer and click on the file and it installs. That is as long as it is a cab file, if its a msi file like the net framework thing is then you need to run it from your pc with ur phone connnected.
The reason why Opera being brought up running the "_setup.xml", is you don't need to extract the contents in the .cab file to begin the installation..
Just copy the .cab file to the SD card and run it thru File Explorer.
If you're not sure if it's a .cab file, open it in WinRAR to see the Address Bar what it shows, or turn on the option in the Windows Explorer for showing file extensions..

How do you install programs on the HD.
Eg. i was trying to install HD Tweak. I downloaded the files from here. But when I open the setup file in the HD, it tried to open the file in Opera, and then stays blank!!!
What am I doing wrong?

I usually sync to my laptop and D/L from there to my documents or another appropriate file on the phone. Click and drag, easy.
I need more info. You downloaded the cab file to your PC and then copied the cab to your device via activesync? Where did you copy the file to in your HD? Generally what I do is copy the cab file from my PC to my SD card via activesync. Go to my storage card via file explorer in programs. Touch the cab file, and it installs.
I downloaded HD-Tweak from here http://montecristoff.webs.com/hdtweak.htm, but the zip file does not show a .cab file? it only shows a .xml setup file, which, when I try to open, opens in an Opera browser?
you downloaded a cab file, not a zip file, which it looks like you extracted mistakenly as a zip file which is why you're dealing w/ the xml. Copy the cab file that you downloaded from your pc to your phone and then run it on the phone.
Alternatively if you have Cabviaactivesync installed you can just right click on the cab from your pc w/ the phone attached and select CabviaActivesync and it will start the installation on your phone.
I see what's happening. The cab file is what you downloaded. Inside the cab file is a bunch of things, one of which is an xml setup file, which I think you're copying and trying to install on your device. For whatever reason, after you unzip, your taken inside the guts of the cab file. You don't copy any of that. Close out of that. You don't open a cab file. On your PC, the cab file should be an icon that looks like a blue and white file cabinet. If you see that, don't open it. Instead, either drag the icon into your device via activesync or copy it into your device via activesync. Once in the device, go to folder in which you copied it and tap on it. It should then install properly.
Wow! thanks, it worked.

[Q] How to run a cab file & install different application & games

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.
