.cab files - HD2 General

I just put Kumar's v 2.0 custom flash on my phone and want swype on it. I downloaded the .cab file but have no idea what to do with it. Do I just extract it into my Custom RUU folder and re-flash it with the cab files in there?

No, you sync your phone with your pc and open your flash memory,then drag and drop the cab into it. Then explore it on your device with File Explorer and install it from there.
I think this should be moved to General

Excellent, thank you

Play Sky Force in NIKI

I played Game Infinite Dreams Sky Force in O2 Mini and ASUS P525, It's work and smooth. But when I played in HTC Touch Dual (Niki), the graph will not smooth (seems like memory is not enough).
Anybody have idea to handle this problem ??? Thanks
its the driver problem.
read more here:

After porting touch driver from Dopod S600 to touch dual, this problem will be solved. I can play it very well using the touch screen on my touch dual now.
please elaborate on how to do it Id love to solve this problem also!
you need to cook the rom your self.using the oem\oemdrivers\touch from S600 rom that I post here.
have you sent this to htcclaasaction.org? Theyve been trying to solve this problem for a long time.
Is rom the only solution? Cant i just copy the file or instal a cab? Im still a noob at flashinr ROMs :-(
That is a driver issue. I don't think it's a good idea to fix this issue using cab.
I attached the touch driver files here. You can cook and G'reloc your rom using this driver.

Hand how to relocate it with M'Reloc? When I start this tool and have chosen the touch.dll module, the "DoIt" button is grey! Oo
Cooking for Prophet was much more easier ...!

You don`t need to cook enything, and you dont`t need to flash your device.
Here my instrutions. If you will follow them it will be 100% safe for your p5500.
1. Make Backup of your system. I recomend you to use spb backup v2.0.
2. Install Resco File Explorer. (Not all versions can overwrite rom files, i used v6.10)
3. Go to the options and make all files visible. Also make Resco File Explorer to remember last folder (you will need these if something will go wrong)
4. Copy files from archive in any place on your device.
5. Install install_cert.cab
6. Install SDKSamplePrivDeveloper.cer like CAB file.
7. Copy touch.dll over ROM file to \windows\ folder .
8. Browse to \windows\ folder and close Resco Explorer.
9. Make Softreset
10. Be Happy!
if somting will go wrong, your touch screen will not response. In these case you need run Resco Explorer using a hard keys. It will open \windows\ folder for you. Find Touch.dll and remove it! It will restore original file! Make Softreset.
PS: Sorry for my English Good Luck!
Wonderful
Just tried to install the new driver with your instructions. Works great. I tested it with NFS, with the original driver it was unplayable because steering is made via touchscreen and so graphics went very slow. But now, simply great. Much thanks!
I found you~
Thanks dude! previously the screen would lag if i keep on touching the screen, i.e. playing SkyForce. But after the fix, seems that now the screen is smooth.

Ok, I installed everything sucessfuly. But, It's not supposed the driver improves the system performance? It seems everything the same to me...
Great!! I'm a noob on cooking and gave up trying cook me a swedish rom months ago, this worked great. It's a joy using internet explorer and opera now, I'm truly fuzzed!
The whole device seems nippier also, but I dunno, might be the buzz from the smooth scrolling in IE that makes me see stuff that isn't there

HD2 cab install

hello guys, i dont own an hd2 yet but ill buy one this month but i have a question i want to add some cabs file on my device when i get. My question is i have download some cabs BUT when i open the winrar i dont get any cab file, all i get is some files that has bunch of numbers and one of them says "_setup.xml" so what should i do? should i directly put the winrar file on my hd2? since i dont get any cab file inside the winrar?? and if there's a cab file inside the winrar and i press the button "extract here" should i just upload the cab file only to my hd2 right??
Hope you guys can help me.
Thank you.
Hi.
A CAB file is a compressed installer file for mobile phones.
If you open it with winrar, you will see all the files it contains.
Just copy the original .cab file to your phone.
Click on the .cab file, and it will run the installer, and install the program on your phone.
You can choose to install to the main memory or the sd card.
Yeah - as above. What you're calling a "winrar" file is the cab file.
Extract a cab
Ok, I know this isn't the original question but...
is it possible to extract a .cab file - i mean to extract all the different files that make up the program , all the .exe .dll .ico etc etc. Wanting to do this to help me reverse-engineer a couple of omnia 2 cabs that don't work.

Tried that, all I get are 10 files. One of them is _setup.xml, the others are numbered files.
I've attached a screen capture of the files so you can see what they are.

Yes that's what you would expect as they are the cab install files.
If they don't mean anything are you sure you know what you're doing?
That's what I'm trying to find out. I assume that the WM program works in a similar way to windows program in that its a collection of files (exe, ico, dll, cfg so on so forth) that get installed in the appropriate places on the device. If so, how do you 'unpack' these files from the setup files
use a cab manager program. I don't so I can't recommend, but wincecab manager sound familiar. u can use them to create cabs of your tweaks, install files and such.
it seems that you have never used windows mobile (just copy the winrar file into the device and run it from the device)

I'm not trying to install a cab file (which the first post was about) I'm trying to decompile the omnia 2 video editor to get it to run on the HD2 but instead of starting a new thread, I asked on this one because it seemed (partially) relevant.
BTW, I've got the cab 'extracted' so thanks - no for the difficult part...

Sync your device with ActiveSync. Transfer the cab file to your device. Browse to where you copied the cab file on your device with a file browser (Total Commander, File Explorer, etc.) and then run the cab file (this is within your device, not on your computer).
Welcome to the wonderful world of flashing lol. Im actually suprised that you flashed a rom but haven't read on .cabs yet
Anyway if you have the .cab downloaded to your pc just copy it to your sdcard. Then use file explorer to navigate to where you placed the .cab, select it and it will install. Most cabs will ask if you want to install to device or sdcard, it's that simple. Good Luck
Thanks everyone!!! Im hooked!

you could also just drag the file from ur comp to sdcard. then open file explorer->tap the cab file and it'll take u to an install page.

It depends what files you are unzipping. If they are cab files inside the zip file, then you put the cab file on your phone and then using file explorer, click on the cab file. If the files are .exe's then you put them on your phone and again, using file explorer, click on them. If they are manila files, you should disable touch flo in start/settings/today/items, use file explorer (or better still Total Commander), put the file in the Windows folder and then re-start touch flo....
it are cab files , i put them on my memorycard , with explorer search them but can not installed it
Grtz
Its possible that what you are doing is actually unzipping the cab files, even though they show up on your pc as zip archives, they are not meant to be unzipped, it would help if you gave us an example of what you are trying to install. but try just taking the whole file without unzipping and then clicking on it from file explorer
xda-developers.com/windows-mobile/advanced-home-tab-2-0/[/url] this i want to put on my phone, but i see there is no application by the file.
I unzip those file, extract it , put hit on my phone but can not installed it.

That file is not a zip file but a cab file. You should not unzip it. Just copy it to your phone and click on it with file explorer.
Everytime i click on it winzip open the file
You have to see the tread about the link a paste, you will see its a zip file

It's a CAB file!
you are not supposed to do anything to those files on your pc, just copy them to your phone, and open them in the file explorer on your phone. like I said before, your pc thinks they are zip files, so winzip will open them when you click on them on your pc, but your phone should know they are .cab files.
Oke , thnx , now i get it

cab files don't download on my computer

when I download the files, I don't have cab files. For instance, I downloaded the CHTEditor. It downloaded as a zip file w/ the .cab extension. when I click it to unzip, there are no cab files. Just some kind of file w/ the little windows icon next to it. Is there some way to download the .cab file for editor (and all the other files that do this to me) ota?
I think you are in the wrong forum. It's not a HD2 problem but a windows problem. Maybe a Mod will move your thread to the right forum.
if you "run" a cab on your pc it opens like a zip. instead copy the whole cab to your phone and run it.the phone sees it as an installer.
