You'll probably do more CABS, so I suggest creating a CAB folder on the root of your SD card... Easier to keep track, then.

It's a winner, I keep a copy of my cabs on my laptop and another on my SD card for easy of use when flashing from ROM to ROM.

do I have to do anything else to the phone? like u would jailbreak an iphone? i unzipped the folder and put it on the storage card but when i select setup nothing happens :/

You don't unzip it. You run the .cab file as it is.

ok i am confused lol when i downloaded it from this forum it is in a zip file and actually doesnt have a.cab file in the zip file

Are you sure it isn't just a .cab? WinRAR opens them like they are zip files.

Can you not add it in the options, by shaking the phone while in the office app?

this doesn't appear to work. I have the HTC HD2. I open the office app and when I shake it nothing happens. Should it?

Now thats not nice is it?
Sometimes you do have to wait for an answer.please dont expect it straight away. Anyways, i dont know the exact answer but i'll make suggestion. Try to delete it straight away after a soft reset. see if that works. Also,try to delete it using a file explorer like resco or total cammander.
Let us know how u get on

Ok. Using resco file explorer,navigate to windows/startmenu/programmes(ensure u set resco to find/view all files)& delete the icon for the game.(assuming it is in your start menu) oh, if its in your game folder,then navigate to that folder and then delete it.

The attached zip file has 2 exe files in it. Just unzip it and copy both files to your device. It's pretty obvious from the name what each of the files does, but you need to restart your device for the changes to take effect. (Please note - this will only turn off the default windows lockscreen. If you've got a different one installed this will not affect it.)
Basically, run lockscreen_disable and restart your device. You can run lockscreen_enable at a later date if you ever need to turn the lockscreen back on.
Hope it helps mate

You can either unzip the 2 files (both exe files) and copy them to your phone, or copy the zip file to the phone and unzip it there. Either way doesn't matter.
Once unzipped, you click the exe file of your choice and it runs, but you won't see anything change till you restart your phone.
I really threw them together quickly, which is why they're so basic, but they should do the trick though
Thanks John. I've been looking for ways to disable my Exchange email policy lockscreen.
Nothing I've seen and tried works so far.
Will your exe files work to disable/enable this Lockscreen?
Cheers

Follow-up to my own query above:
Nope, doesn't stop my lockscreen from timing in. Oh well, the hunt continues....

[Q] How do I install HTC IME keyboard?

I'm running Hyperdroid V1.2 on my hd2 and I really miss the HTC_IME keyboard from my last rom. Thanks guys!
You need to find the apk file for it, just Google HTC_ime orGoogle mobilism you'll find it on there, then install it, go to keyboard settings activate it, go to new message press and hold in text box select input method and select HTC_ime

So how would I install the apk file? Is there a certain spot in the SD card I need to leave it? Thanks for your help!

Doesn't need to be in a special place on the card, but Its helps to keep all your apk's in a folder for easy finding. Once you've copied the file to your card, you can use any file manager from the market to locate and install the apk. Don't know how much you know but .apk files are to Android what .cab files are to Windows mobile and .ipa files are to Iphone OS. Cheers.
Sounds simple enough thanks guys appreciate it!

What if you want to install it to /system/app? If you simply use a file manager to open the apk file won't it install to /cache?
To install to system do I simply adb push it or adb install it?
You can grab the keyboard you want out of/system/app from your old build and then put it into the androidapps folder of your new build and then reboot. Should work, please let me know though

Using EVO keyboard with arrows on NON-EVO builds

Im sorry if this is the wrong section for this, I figured this would be the best spot.
The reason im posting this is because a lot of people were asking how to use the EVO keyboard (with arrows) on NON-Evo sense builds. First off, as far as I have tried, the build does have to be a sense build. I have tested this on just about every sense build for the HD2.
I've attached the renamed apk that ive been using. Hopefully it will work since I sent it straight from my phone. If you use it, skip #1.
1.) Rename the HTC_IME.apk to newHTC_IME.apk
2.)Go into the folder where the newHTC_IME.apk is (if you download it from your phone then it will be in the "download" folder) and using "Root Explorer" or another root file explorer long press the apk and select copy.
3.)Go to your system>>app folder and paste the newHTC_IME.apk. Since its not the same name as the original it will not ask you if you want to over ride the original. But it will still be there if you choose you do not want the EVO keyboard later on.
4.) You WILL have to reboot for the changes to take affect, if you do not you will not have a keyboard till you do reboot.
I hope I didnt make this complicated lol, and yes i know....some of you know how to do this. I did it for the ones who did not.
Works perfectly with desire sense mdeejay build. Thanks.

that's really great! sometimes it's pretty hard to navigate in text and this makes it a lot easier. thank you!
Same great result here... Thnx man...
Thank You
U don't know how long ive been searching for this and all the time it was right under my nose!
Im copying the newHTC_IME.apk to, "sd/android/AndroidApps/," then rebooting but nothing!
Ive tried clicking on newHTC_IME.apk in this folder it tries to install but then says, "application not installed".
Please Help.

Worked fine for me, really helpfull, no doubt Android is getting better and better for the HD2, im not using winmo since day one on Android

the method you're doing won't work.. follow the OP's instruction on how to do it, or install droid explorer and then copy/paste the newHTC_IME.apk file to system/app folder.
BE VERY WARY ABOUT THIS!!!
I'm going to have to start from scratch as doing this has lost my keyboard, permanently.
I keep getting a "Sorry" message saying that "The application Touch Input has stopped unexpectedly" and my keyboard is unavailable.
This is after installing this new keyboard, as well as after restoring the original one. It's basically just screwed my keyboard so I'm going to have to rebuild my instance of Android from scratch.

mine doesnt even have app folder in my root folder can i just make a folder in the root and do it like that? and after i put it in the folder where do i go to select the evo keyboard sorry for acting like a noob lol
Yes thanks a lot but I was very afraid because I had to erase and save elsewhere the old file . I could not copy the new file in root system app as it was saying that i had not enough place in the rom.
Thanks for the apps . It work great !

My friends, i'm not able to write the file newHTC_IME.apk into /system/app/.
I've installed "Root Explorer" and I also cannot, it tells me that there's no space to copy the file... even i use mount r/w
i'v also tried to access superuser but i dont know how it works... superuser2.3.6 app screen shows me there's no apps, log shows me there's no log, and i don't know how can i give root privilegies to "root explorer"
thnx!
SOLVED: I was able doing the same, deleting HTC_IME.pak and copying newHTC_IME.pak. Thnx!!!
Hi motoman234,

[Q] help with the cab files

Hey guys!
I have a few apps im trying to install on my HTC HD2. However, every time i click on the cab setup files and try to run in my explorer window, it just launches the browser and then nothing happens...
how to i get the setup to run as normal executable files?
Thanks
Are you running them on your device?
yes Im trying to...
Shouldn't I?
Is there another way of running the programs?
Any insight or suggestion?????
Yeah you should be running them on your phone. And when you click on them, they open the browser? As in web browser?
Yes they do....I just saw a post on how to install xml and followed the guidelines to fix it....I was not supposed to extract the files which is what i was doing!!!
thanks all for your replies
