Helo everyone. I'm new to the forum and to Windows Mobile. I hope this question is in the correct place....don't want to get bashed on my first post. I have searched for about an hour now for the answer to my question but I can't find anything that relates to my problem. I am trying to install a converter..."Pocket Converter 1.50" on my TMobil USA HTC HD2. After downloading the cab file into a folder...a screen pops up that says "installation of Pocket Converter 1.50 was unsuccessful". OK...I then tryed one called "MSS Converter 1.08. Same thing happened with it too. I have successfully installed other apps so I was wondering what might be the problem.
I have had the same issue a couple of times. I think sometimes the download gets corrupted. I just redownload and usually the app will install.
Thanks for replying......I've downloaded these 2 apps numerous times and on different days but still no luck. Do you think I could download them to my computer then copy them over to the phone and install?
That may be a good idea, other than that maybe try and download from another source. I think also some apps have issues with the hd2.
signman, do you have links to the exact cabs you tried, so I can test them on mine?
What kind of converter program are those? If they're for converting units of measurement, I use the uConvert app which works great on the HD2, and was developed by an xda member...I've attached the cab here for you to try if that's what you're looking for.
i used to have this happen to me all the time when i downloaded the cab directly from my hd2. Try using a pc to download it then transfer via usb and install. Hope it works!

Sorry for taking so long to post back...as I couldn't find my post!
The links to the apps I am trying to download are as follows...
Well since I'm a new user....I can't post the links..I got them from freewarepocketpc.net
I finally got the MSS Converter downloaded and installed from another website. Can't remember where I got it. I'm going to try to get your posted cab directly to my phone and try that one. Well that didn't work. Installation says it was unsuccessful. Maybe I have to do it like jfmckenna has suggested. Thanks for helping me out guys...I really appreciate it.

If all these installs are failing, I'm guessing you're either missing the NetCF 3.5, or the sdkcerts cab, both are attached below. These are necessary to run many of the apps/cabs you'll find here and at other sites like freewarepocketpc.net. Just put the cabs on your SD card (I recommend just putting all the ones you install in a folder there for easy reference later), and run each one, then you'll probably be able to install the stuff that was giving you issues.
cab files
I've downloaded the cab files you posted but the NetCFv35 says I have to first remove the older version. How do I remove the older version? I know nothing about Windows Mobil...sorry.

Right...I forgot that it was already loaded on the stock ROM, you can skip that signman.
m'lord, I would suggest installing the sdkcerts...it will probably be necessary for you at some point if you're installing any homebuilt apps. I suspect that most custom ROM's would have it built in.

Humm...if it is the same version I already have on the phone...wonder why it is telling me to remove the older version first. Where can I look to see what version I have on the phone?

Flash Lite
Sirphunkee. I managed to get your uConvert installed but it is trying to install Flash Lite. That install does not work...I get a "error installing Flash Lite". Is there anything else I can do? I downloaded Flash Lite to my computer and copied it to my phone. Still won't work.
I used a Flash Lite cab file posted on the forum for my fix. Thanks everybody for your help.

Ok good, I'm glad you got it working (I'd forgotten it wants flash light installed to get it to work). Does uConvert cover everything you need then?

When running the cab it gives me;
Failed to install aria htc x.cab
This is on Prophet (Qtek S200) Anyone else seen this error?
kind regards
marl
Edit, downloaded again, works fine now, thx for the cab
Any ideas if this is possible to be mapped to a hard button.....like the ok button on the 750v?
Thanks
I have tried three times on my TyTn but every time the cab file fails to install. I downloaded the zip file, renamed it and put in in my SD card. When installing I got the message Cound not install etc.
Any help available?
I'd suggest you to have a look to the device and try to find out if there is no left files from the former installation.
I've struggled time ago with such Resco things. Maybe it's the same issue.
It's only for Pocket PC PE, or it be useful for WM 5.0 Smartphone Edition?
I have a Qtek 8310. ¿Can I use this taskmanager?
Thanks
I'm getting crazy over here...
from one moment my G'reloc does give me errors when applying.
It says:
Can not open file C:\Kitchen\SYS\***\***
*** = a different map/file each time
I tried different G'Reloc.exe files and used different SYS-folders (even ones that worked before without any problems)
Can not cook roms anymore because they will not boot somehow...
Please help me with this weird error..
What are the files it's trying to access?
Also check out the IRC room they have, if it's still up at least.

It's a different file each time....beats me...
But often it is one of the bluetooth related files....
Maybe the files you downloaded were corrupted. Try manually replacing the files, or just uninstall and reinstall the kitchen.

Ok I know a little bit more...:
I formatted my laptop and did a clean install of windows...
After that g'reloc worked again.
I installed all programs I always use on my pc again.
And today when I used G'reloc again I get the same error each time. Even if I use different locations or diffirent SYS folders (also ones I know they work!)
Which program or setting interacts with G'reloc???
Merten i don't use that program because i don't know what it does.
But i tryed to open it but i think i got the same error as you got.
Is it something like this: cannot open file (root\dir\imageinfo.bin).
And then you only have one option to click the ok button (this will exit the program)?
Know i tryed some other g'reloc programs what i got and the all gived me the same error pointing to the imageinfo.bin and then give me one option to click the ok button.
But there was one g'reloc program what did work and gived me no error.
I send a email to you with g'reloc.exe so it could be that it will give your virusscan some trouble because it is a .exe file I hope it will work for you.
I will back in some hours so i can't respons to your questions so fast.

Thanx man for the effort. But I did not receive a thing... did you mail to:
[email protected]?
If your back maybe you can upload to rapidshare?
Thanx anyway!!
Well, I came across two things in PPCGeeks forum. People reported errors when they were running G'reloc on FAT32 en fixed it by changing to NTFS.
The other thing was that people reported a fix by just disabling their antivirus program. This might explain why it worked before you started installing all your programs on a clean windows install. I hope it works for you as well because I really like your roms

WOOHOOOO!!!! the Virusscanner was the problem!!!! I use kaspersky for a year but probably since a recent update it messes up g'reloc....
I will be cooking again.....!!!!

Next time, please post questions in the Q&A section.
thank you
I downloaded an MS voice command file cab from somewhere, confused at this point... it's called msvc 1.6.21040.
How do I install it on my htc touch pro 2 that I just installed the ROM from Warhawk on?
These forums are like reading chinese for the average joe man...
thanks...

PS, where is the zoom on IE?
transfer cab file to your storage card on your phone,go to storage card on your phone and click on the cab you just put on there and it should open up and ask wether you want to install to device or storage with this cab you must install it to device or it doesnt work properly that should do the trick, you made need pocket rar which you can download (google it) which recognises cab files and un-zips them.
I still can't install. I try to install this cab and it says it was unsuccessful right away. I am trying to install on NRG's TP2 cab from 10/11 on a Tmo TP2

You may need to re-download the cabfile. Sometimes you'll get a bad install if download wasn't complete. I dl'd the latest voice command for my ATT Tilt1 and it worked find. Perhaps that's what it meant for (6.1, not 6.5). Try checking out MS site for compatibility.

Hi there all, first time post so be kind. Anyway, I want to install the Sky Mobile app so that I can use the Remote Record functionality to record stuff on my Sky box at home. Problem is that whenever I try and install from the CAB file provided on this site, I get an error saying 'installation failed'. If I go to p.wecomm.com/sky directly from my phone I can download the relevant file (SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0) but all it does is open up an appearance settings page for 'Today'. Strange.
Ive had no problems downloading and installing Co0kie's Home Tab Editor, BsB Tweaks, Microsoft .NET etc. so I don't think it's me (but I could be wrong).
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it, or can think of something else I can try?
Hi Arpers,
Try installing the attached file.
It works spot on on my HD2.
Hi there Rutster, many thanks for that. It looks the same as the CAB file I downloaded earlier. I used your one instead and it installs fine. Strange. Anyway, many thanks for that.

No probs mate. Pleased it worked ok.
I am having problems installing cabs on my new HD2 with T-mobile. About 90% of the ones I try just say uninstallable after I save them. I tried to download the BsB tweak cab and same thing. I tried to download .NetCF 3.5 and it won't install either. Can anyone give me an idea, and also is there a place on my phone I can find out what .NetCF I'm running? Do the HD2's already have 3.5 on them? I've done a search on here to try and find answers but nothing yet.
Try a Soft Reset, see if that helps...if not Hard Reset

Hold on, not just yet on the hard-reset...
amstaff, what exactly happens when you try to install CF3.5? Are you trying it from a cab or a desktop installer?
sirphunkee- I'm trying it from a cab. .NetCF keeps saying this is a previous version, that's why I was wondering if I have 3.5 already. I don't know where to look and see. I tried to download a cab off modaco that says which version is running but I can't install that cab. It's one that just says uninstallable.

Yeah you know what, I thought I had to put 3.5 on here when I first got it, but I remember now that it was never needed so I assumed it was already on here.
Whatever is causing your problem, I don't think it's CF3.5, because I never put it on and I have BsB Tweak running just fine, and I've never had installation issues like that. So yeah, I think a hard-reset might be a good place to start, to try to get whatever is interefering with your installs cleared up.
I tried a hard reset and still the same problems. Things download I just can't install most of them. I need some help.

Are you saving them to the SD card and running them from there? If so, try one running on the phone instead...just to rule out any issue with the card.
I tried that too. It still wont let me install. Is there some safety thing or something I need to disable? I remember in Vista microsoft made it impossible to delete and download some files, did they do something like that on winmo 6.5? It was like you had to have the administrator rights or something. I don't know what's going on, but customizing a windows phone is one of it"s best attributes, I can't even install any games. I need some help, please!
man...this is a chin scratcher never heard of any thing like this before. maybe it has something to do with the certificates. have you tried installing a free app from the marketplace that came on the phone. im curious if that would work.where are you getting the cabs you are trying to install. try something from freeware pocket pc.net
Yeah, the only apps that should potentially give you issues for insufficient rights when installing are homebrewed ones like those found here...but as long as you have sdkcerts installed even those shouldn't do that. But it sounds like the issue here goes beyond that because you're trying to install things that shouldn't need that anyway

T-Mobile HD2 (US) already has NetCF 3.5 installed.
I have tried cabs from here and from places like pocketpc.net and so many won't install. There are some that do but like I said about 90% don't. What is the sdkcerts or whatever, I don't think I have that do I need it to install some cabs? Please someone give me some Ideas. Thanks for letting me know about NetCF 3.5 I was wondering about that. But again need some ideas for the cabs. Thanks for the help and ideas so far.
I just tried to download and install the sdk certs cab. It downloaded and installed but I still can't install most cabs. I tried BsB tweaks again and it still says "BsB Tweaks uninstallable". Do I need to install the sdk certs somewhere special or can I just install it like normal?

You just install it like normal, it sounds like it went on fine for you....so the problem has to be somewhere else, but I'm really still at a loss on this one. I don't know what other cabs/apps you're trying, but I know BsB installed on mine without a hitch.
Let me ask you this....when you're using file explorer to navigate to a cab you want to install, do you do it in landscape mode? And then, as soon as you click the cab, you filp to portrait? I just remembered that whenever I did that, it killed the install, and I would need to click the cab to run it while in portrait mode. Just a thought.
Is there a place I need to check or something that maybe makes me administrator that could be guest or something right now?
sirphunkee-when I download and install cabs I click the link, it sends me to the save screen, I most of the time save to my card and then install...but I have tried to save to the hard drive and install but it doesn't seem to matter which way I do it. When I save and install, I just leave the phone in the regular position, I don't turn it on its side. Some of the apps I've tried to install as cabs that didn't work are grooveshark for 6.5 from pocketpc.net, BsB Tweaks from here, there was a couple of others I just tried to see if they would work from 1800pocketpc and they didn't work either. Only a few are installing without any problem. Thanks for your help sirphunkee, I appreciate it.
