A CAB-file can only run on your device...You have to copy/paste it into your device as is ( my documents or so ) find it using your file-explorer, tap it, and it will install... :wink: hope this helps...
BTW it is not a zip-file. though it looks as if it is on your PC, just FYI...

Ohh I know that one, that's Vijay's nice little thingy, well you want them all I assume, so be sure to empty your browser cache, then download this one... http://www.vijay555.com/vj/ToggleToday/VJToggleStuff.cab
Then sync with your device....copy and paste the file as is into your device, in "my documents", disconnect your device from sync, then use your file-explorer ( the default one ) to find the cab file, tap it, and it installs...have just checked it, it works just fine... :wink:

Are you absolutely sure that you copy this file as it is to your device ? and you have not made an attachment to cab. extentions on your desktop, so that it renames the file in transfer ? The only time you will need to click the file, is when it is in your mini, "my documents" folder, not before...!
If you are sure about the above, I mean sure..!!! Then maybe it's time for you to do something serious about your OS, 'cause then you have a problem..
...use cab installer and associate files with it!
...then try to disable the setting and see if system setting is restored
Its now fine, i was doing mistake ....Actually i was unzip the file first then i transfered the file, you mentioned AS IT IS helped me alot.
I really appriciate your help...and THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!!!!!
With this small tools,you can specify the folder you want the CAB to be installed to.
Just copy it to you PPC,and run it.You can associate this tools with CAB file so that next time you click a cab on your PPC,the cabinst will take over the rest work in your will.
Thanks alot mate, its really helpful !

Hi.
Can anyone of u plz tell me how to use open gl and how to install thongs like Diamond cubes themes and more. Plz teach me how to do this cuz i cant get this things to work. I wana use me htc for something funny not just use it like a phone.
plz help me if u can.
I am not an experienced person, but I try to answer you.
you need a file called CAB. Download the CAB file for a particular program.
Never unzip it. The CAB file itself acts as a exe file.
1) Sync your diamond to the PC with active sync.
2) copy the cab file to your diamond
3) double click on the cab file.
4) Install either on your ROM or internal memory
Good luck!
Google is your friend.
If your new to Pocket PC devices, check this out.

Carty..
Thx guys for great help
I have been all over this site, ppcgeeks and sprintusers and maybe I am on brain overload, but I do not understand how to install manila files. I have done programs and cabs. I have all sorts of tweaks and changes on my diamond. I am trying to change just my icons. i have downloaded many of the files that people create, but cannot figure out where to get them to install. any help anyone could pass on will be sooo appreciated. I have Diamond TF3D Config, I have Diamond Tweaks and I have PHM RegEdit...what am i missing?

Copy them to your \Windows folder with Resco Explorer or Total Commander.
so why use total commander and not just drag the manila into window\, pls. fill me out with more details. Thank you.

Because ActiveSync/File Explorer can't copy files with System attribute and Total Commander can. Apart from that, it is a way better file manager than the system one. And unlike the desktop version, it is free.

I made a Family Guy them for both TF3D & S2U2, and I wanted to share it. Below also are some ringtones and wallpapers.
Also added icons for roms with HD manila. Includes stock, calendar, and sound profile icons.
To Install the TF3D files:
1. Download and unzip the folder to your desktop.
2. Copy and paste all of the files into the \Windows folder on your device.
Say yes to all when it asks if you want to replace these files.
3. Soft reset and you're done.

To install the S2U2 files:
1. Download and unzip the folder to your desktop.
2. Find the S2U2 folder on your device, it's usually in Program Files on the device's main memory.
3. Drag the gfx folder to your PC desktop to save it and then delete it on the device.
4. Copy the new gfx folder into the S2U2 folder.
5. Soft reset and you're done.

Ok, so I am going to sound like an idiot but I don't know so I'm gonna ask anyway
When #2 says "paste all files into the /Windows folder on your device" is that one you create with the / or is it just the Windows folder on My Device? That folder has soo many files in it so it seems like youo would lose those files if you wanted to delete one day... And I have not installed a theme this way. I have done cab file themes and done the TF3D route, but not the manilla way...
Someone wanna help this poor soul? lol, thanks!

That's basically what the cab installs do. Use the folder that is already called Windows on the device.

There are places on XDA to get the original theme back, or you can drag all of the manila files from the windows folder into a folder on your PC to copy them and save for later. Yes you put them in the windows folder with all of the files in it. Just drag over from PC desktop to windows folder and soft reset.
Any chance of making it a .cab or .theme extension

Hello to ALL
On the various forums for the HD2 exists much proposals/solutions to change the orientation of the screen.
I did not find ANY Simple solution to do it, much cab are totaly disproportionate for this simple function !!!!!!
I am in favour of the simple solutions: to pass in landscape only when necessary.
Who is able to provide me a SIMPLE procedure to make available, in the icon "Button", the “TALK/SEND” button ?????
I use HD2TWEAK and I could thus assign to a long support the rotation of the screen.
Many many thanks for your help

I've coded a simple app to do what you've asked.
Unzip the attachment on your PC and copy the 2 files to the windows folder on your phone. Then, when you long-hold on the call button it will toggle the screen rotation between portrait and landscape.
Hope this helps
Edit:
I've updated this application a couple of times, and it now comes with a GUI so you can select what orientation you want to toggle with.
It's available from the following thread...

I copied them onto my card storage, located PLToggle.exe using file explorer, pressed it and it installed onto my phone and then restarted.
I've heard of folk talking about the windows folder before, what are you referring to when you say windows folder?

Okay - running the exe doesn't install it. Copying it to the windows folder is all you need. (It's not like installing a cab file).
In file explorer go to Menu and select "Show all files". Then, in the root folder of your device, you will have a windows folder. You need to copy PLToggle and long_send into that folder.
I tried and it did very good to rotate my garmin mobile XT.
I will pass this link to my friends.

As usual i am putting new cabs into my documents on the pc and syncing. But when i open file explorer, these new cabs are now showing as windows files that cannot be open as oppossed to cabs as they used to be.
I'm a bit of a noob ,so i'm not sure i have explained this very well but hopefully someone can help.
Thanks in advance.....
sounds like you are extracting the cabs to me, i just have a folder on my sd card i call general crap, and i copy all my cabs in there, go to file explorer sd card then general crap then click on what i want to install
Thanks very much for the swift response. Its very odd that this has started happening all of a sudden. Some cabs ie wallpapers, are going into my documents, but others as i said seem to now be windows files and not cabs, once they are in my documents and cannot be opened, very very frustrating !! I'll try what you said this evening and see if it works, but i cannot understand why it would all of a sudden be extracted when thats never been the case before ?
I'm sure i must have changed something, but i wish i new what
Cheers again for your help. I would be lost without this site, and my HD2 would be no-where near as much fun.
Thanks for the help, but it didn't work. Files still appear as window type files that i cannot open instead of the usual cabs. Wish i new whats changed, but unless anyone has a suggestion, i can feel a dreaded hard reset coming on !!!
Can you not just explore your device with activesync and copy the files manually, rather than using some method of synching? Or, connect as a USB drive and copy the files to your memory card. Either they're not actually cab installers, or the sync process is doing something to them.
Just tried both your suggestions, but with no luck. But thanks anyway for the reply. Wish i new what has changed but something has .

What actually happens then when you click a cab file? Do any old cab files work, or is it now all cab files that won't work?
It says " The file ????? cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file "
You can see before you try to open it that its not right, as i say , it appears to be a window file not a cab, once it goes on my device, though judging by the size of the file it is all there !!!
Wallpaper cabs seem to be working for some reason though.
Using your PC, browse to the folder on your phone and see what the file is called. If it doesn't look like a cab file should, then it probably won't have a .cab extension. (I only say this because the file explorer on the phone does not show file extensions. Your PC may not be set up to do so either though. The alternative is to use Total Commander or Resco to see what the file extension is.)
Can you give me a link to a cab file that doesn't work for you?

Shortcuts to start menu folders is one of the cabs. As above .

Well the link you gave me is a zip file with a cab file in it, so you would need to unzip it first. Cab files are actually a format of compression, so it's likely that a cab file and a zip file would have the same icon on your PC. It's for reasons like that that I always make sure to have file extensions switched on on my PC.
Try unzipping it and copying the contents to your phone and see how you get on with that.
You are a life saver. Now I can say thank-you very much, that worked perfectly. This website is brilliant for those of you who know what your doing and for those like me who just like to play with their device and make use of the knowledge on this site.
