13.9 Installing and Uninstalling Programs
You can install or uninstall additional programs. Your phone does not allow you to uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.
Note Before you purchase additional programs, make sure that they are compatible with your phone.
Before you launch the program installer, check first whether the installer can directly run on Windows Mobile or needs to be run on a computer.
To install a program directly on your phone
1. If the installer is a .cab file, directly download or copy it to your phone.
2. On your phone, open File Explorer and navigate to the installer file.
3. Tap the file to launch the installer.
274 Chapter 13 Other Programs
4. Choose whether to install the program into the main memory or your storage card, if you have the storage card inserted on your phone.
5. Wait for the installation to complete.
Note You may be prompted to restart your phone after installation is completed.
To install a program from your computer
1. If the installer is an .exe file such as Setup.exe, most likely, the installer needs to be run on a computer. Download or copy it to your computer.
2. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable, and then double-click the installer file on your computer to launch the installer.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions on your computer and your phone to complete the installation.
To uninstall a program
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab.
2. Tap Application > Remove programs.
3. In the Programs in storage memory list, select the program you want to remove, and then tap Remove.

Change Installation Directory

Hi,
i want to install the programs to a directory on the mmc card.
But if i do so, it installs in the root.
Now, thats not looking nice, and its hard to find anything there then.
I want create a directory for games and programms on the card.
How can i do that?
I can only choose between, Memory Card, Storage and Main Memory.
And that sucks!
Maybe u can user WinCE CAB Manager and edit the *.cab installation directory to any directory u prefer.
You can use the freeware CabInstall and install program directly from the SD.
Yes, but on the on hand this would be a lot of work, changing every single files directory in the cab and on the other hand it wouldn´t work out with Progs, that have an exe intallation, like the game AoE.
Thos Progs, first install on the PC and then on the PPC, and there are no editable CABs at all.
I thougt about changing the installation interface inactive sync , but i´m not a coder.
But maybe, there is somebody out there, who had the same idea like me and realised it already.
The Best solution ever: have a look at the attached files, open the TXT file first (the instructions)
You will not need any additional Software (except e Regestry editor like PHM Regedit), just follow the instructions and use the attached files.
Workes great I am having this now for 4 months!
if you install the programmes to the SD/MMC card, and they make their own folder, put the SD/MM card into a card reader on the pc and select the entire folder as hidden. this means that the programme still works, but does not show up when you explore the card. this does not work if u are using your phone as a card reader.
Sorry DerliebeWolf, The BEST solution is the follow (Tested on WM2003Se):
- Download a registry editor 4 Ur PPC
- Open AskDir_ON.reg with the program
- Reset your PPC
manually:
- Go to \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Apps\Microsoft Application Installer\fAskDest
- Change DWORD value (dec) from 0 to 1
- Reset your PPC
If you install a cab file or an exe file from the pc (that copy the cab into your ppc and then execute it), Windows Mobile will ask you in wich folder you want to install the sw.
Note that you can have problems with some applications (because they're not installed in their own directory)
Check out Nonentity's File System Tweak http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...order=asc&highlight=file+system+tweak&start=0
Cabinstaller is the best and easy software i could recommend for this. Run the cab installer software once and set it to run for all installations, the whenever u try to install a cab file, it will prompt you for the path of installation. It also has an option to disable deleting of cab file after installation. Do you want anything more than this? and to the max, it is free ware! Its easy to get, if you can't find,I have it in my site' software section. www.cartystudios.com
oh yes, i've forget that cabinstall associes .cab files to it (and then, when you execute an exe from the pc, in the ppc will be opened always with cabinstall in auto)
They're the 2 Best Solutions

Step By Step
Hi Kris,
Pretty simple really.
Connect your X1 to your pc via microsofts activesync. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/activesync45.mspx#download
Use the explore button on activesync and click on my windows mobile based device (once inside you can access the root of the phone or the storage card if you have one)
Drag and drop the required .cab to either the root of the storage card or a folder of your choice on the phone (for ease of access)
Go back to your X1 and use the file explorer to navigate to the .cab file, tap it and it will execute.
Follow the instructions given by the installation wizard.
Your application is now installed........enjoy

How to install apps

So I tried to search but couldnt find what I was looking for.
How do you exactly install apps, themes or games properly on this phone. The only program I found that somewhat worked was Omarket. Reading here in the forums people suggested that all the apps or themes I would need were here. I found both apps and themes I like but cannot get them on the phone to work.
I download the the theme or app on my computer then I make a custom folder on my SD card then extract all the files to that folder. When I go back into my phone and try to do a set up I get taken to a blank white screen that says something like
file://localhost/Storage%20Card/<name of program or app>
Im new to this phone been trying to research alot about it.
I tried finding all the "noob" post to read but maybe Im not finding the right ones
If for some reason you needed to know my software info here it is.
ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version: 2.10.20.26
Thx for any and all of your help. Im trying! =P
Apps that can be installed from the phone will have a .cab extension. Locate the folder with the .cab files and click on one. It will start the install process.
Apps with .exe extensions will need to be loaded from you computer. Make sure your device is hooked up via activesync and click the .exe app you want to install.
So for the .cab files I have to go to the website from my phone and download them there for it to be on my phone properly? Or is there any way I can download them to my desktop then transfer it to my phone and then install it on my phone?

"How to install a cab.
You simply download the cab to your computer. Then, copy/paste the cab to your storage card using the USB connection. Then, using your file explore on your phone locate the cab file in your storage card and install it by double taping the file. Install onto device or storage card. I prefer installing onto the storage card."
Take a look at my sticky, you'll find it to be very helpful.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663845
you can do it either way. If you download them to your desktop, connect your phone via active sync, copy the cab and past it to where ever it is that you want to save it on your phone. (sd card is prefferred for space reasons) after that, open the location where the cab is stored and you can run it from there. If you download from your phone, determine where you want to save the cab, your options will be device and card. You will also have an option to save in a specific folder. after that, locate the cab and instal.

What file manager are you using? File Explorer?
File manager and search for the file
What are you trying to install? If it's a huge cab, you're better of installing it to the sdcard. Anyway, thry the following steps:
1. Browse to the location of the cab
2. Select it to begin installation
3. Answer the question to where do you want to install it "sdcard or phone memory"
4. After installation is completed, go to the start menu and you might find it there, depending on what you installed, you might have to look in other places.
Thanks for the tip! Work fine

APK Installer for Windows

If you're constantly downloading APK packages from the Internet, you'll know how annoying it is to copy them to the SD card. So, with this application, you can just click one from anywhere on your PC to install it onto your phone!
SYSTEM APP INSTALLING DOESN'T WORK YET.
THIS PROGRAM SOMETIMES DOESN'T WORK.
Prerequisites
- ADB environmental variable set up
(Cornea, one of my programs available on XDA, can do the same thing for you).
- Windows
- ADB drivers for your phone
- APKinstaller.bat
1. Enable USB debugging.
2. Right-click any APK file, then choose Open With. Tick 'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file'.
3. Click Browse.
4. Find APKinstaller.bat, then double-click it.
5. In the textbox, type "Android package file (double-click to install)".
6. Now, the APK will install.
To install an APK in the future, just double click it!
