as far as i understood the merged rom has an older version in it, but I don't have it on my xdaii.
If it has installed itself on your himalaya, uninstall instructions are in the thread

thanks M4io
but neither winzip nor win rar recognized the file i downloaded on the thread you have posted.
wnen i click on the download it shows.
(download the 1.34 mb file, 'download PHP').
now what i want to know is what is PHP?
and why dosen't the winzip & win rar recognized's this cab file.
thanksin advance.

Install Caller_ID_W..

PHP is a language which runs on the webserver. so when you click on download.php you actually start a service on the server, which gives you the requested file.
now these CAB-files are pocketpc cab files ad are kind of setup programs for PocketPC , so you have to copy the CAB to your pocketpc and execute it there.
You can execute it by putting it in your extended rom, modify the config.txt and hard reset (I hope you know what hard reset means/implies)
or simply by tapping on it in PPC file explorer. In this case the CAB will disappear after installation. But if you have a previous version of Caller_id installed, you best uninstall it first : by editing the registry as explained in the forementioned thread, deleting as much files from the previous thread as it allows you to, soft reset, and delete the rest of the files.
I sure hope you understand all this, because if you don't know what php is, don't know what PPC CABs are, then I would advice you not to mess around too much with your PPC internals.

i know what is cab file.
but i wanted to know weather the file is in zip format cus win zip doesn't recognize it and even when i paste it on my ppc it doesn't install it simply says (there is no application associated with ''caller_id_wwe'' run the application first,then open the file from with in)

sounds like something corrupt during download
clear your internet cache and download again, don't unzip/unrar it, just copy the complete CAB file to your PPC
almost everything is installed with cab, so it would be weird that no association exists. Or during the copying to PPC maybe the conversion went wrong.
I'm really guessing now, just keep trying.

[SOLVED!] Any Language of WM5 on any Athena!

Hi guys, I just wanted to let you know that I have managed to translate 99% of all the WM5 interface to English or almost any language. The secret has been found long time ago by our friend Asukal: http://asukal.net/blog/
Some things like the battery panel, the soft keys on the Communication Manager are missing and others are not translated, maybe somebody can tell us how can we complete this work on the Athena.
Instructions:
1) Install ENG_mui.cab or any other desired language. Don't install ENG_Notifi_COM_BT or any other since they will change some settings.
2) Now you will notice that the Start Menu doesn't exist anymore! So go with the help of your keyboard to the File Explorer, go to /Windows and look for the folder on the Old Language that contains the Start Menu Folder, now rename it to: Start Menu. Then inside rename the folder that contains the Links to your programs to Programs and Create or Rename a Folder called Settings. All of them should be inside /Windows/Start Menu
The original work was made by our friend Asukal. Thank you very much for your hard work! And you can view the original post for the HTC Universal and the Languages Pack at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=267541&page=2
you can download all the CAB's that Asukal made with a lot of different languages (some of them are not finisihed) at: http://buzzdev.net/components/com_s...les/UI_LNG_SWT_beta_20060629193323_Asukal.rar
Feel free to ask me any question, I will try to do my best!
I will try to post some screen shots later...

Camera stopped working
The tweak works nice but camera application could not start. Will check further later. Meanwhile I have restored backup

I solved this by replacing /Windows/Camera.exe with one of the Camera.exe.* which size is 404 KBytes. Sorry but I can't remember the exact name.

where did you get the camera files from?

I got them from my /Windows directory they have been renamed by Asukal's translator. They have the extension: *.0404.mui
So the original file of Camera.exe (the one in Chinnese) has been renamed to Camera.exe.0404.mui, so once Asukal's CAB has been installed, rename Camera.exed to Camera.exe.old and rename Camera.exe.0404.mui to Camera.exe
In fact once you rename the working Camera.exe you will find a different Icon, like more "fashion". Hahaha!

Camera working now
I have the camera working now
I followed the instructions above, but before the procedure I created a folder on the storage card and copied all the file in the windows folder named camera for preservation
NB: I INSTALLED THE TWO CABS TO THE STORAGE CARD
ALL COPYING AND RE-NAMING WAS DONE WITH TOTAL COMMANDER
1. Ran the Language switcher cab and do a soft re-set.
2. May not be needed, but I started the switcher application and changed the language to English. Nothing changed of course
3. Installed the English mui and clicked ok for reset.
4. Copied all the camera files (4 of them, counting in Camera.exe.0413) to the Windows folder of device
5. Copied all content of the Windows sub-folders Start Menu and Programs from the old language Dutch in my case, to the new English folders.
6. Did same as in 5. for all the folders I wanted to re-name which would not take the new name
7.Camera works as normal, but I did not see the Microdrive to select in the initial settings. I believe that can be sorted with reg-edit or something else, but that is not important for me at the moment. Have not tested the front camera etc. I need to go and have a meal.
Am continueing to re-name the folders and checking the functions as I go along. Happy tweaking to all of you! Many thanks to Bogusiano and Wu.
Cheers

Very good! I am happy for you! I think this the closest we can get until a WWE ROM for the Dopod U1000 is released, for me at least, this is enough to enjoy my device meanwhile!

Cab file creating

i just put together a cab file (for personal use) to remove sms threading (due to upgrading roms alot etc)
however i have hit a brick wall.
i do not know how to make the device restart after install?
i have compared to other cab files but the only difference is the other cabs install files not registry?
i'm not all that good with programming however i would really like to complete this cab for ease of reloading a new rom - so any input would be grateful - thank you

For cab file creating i use PocketPC Installation Creator. In the menu there is a check box to set the 'reboot after installation' behaviour. I played with it but noticed that my device only rebooted after installation of files. Because i found it to much effort to look into it, i didn't. After all it is quite easy to reboot manually.
You could use MSCEinf to examine different cabs and look for the reboot after installation setting (http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/msceinf/msceinf.htm)
I also noticed that some people make cab files from .xml files (sleuth for example). Maybe this method has other options than cabarc in combination with inf files.
Cant give you any answers, still hope it will be of any help.
Good luck and post back result if you figured it out.
Arjan

The easiest way tocreate CAB files is to purchase a copy of WINCE Cab Manager from OCP Software
they have just released a new version which supports Vista

i created the xml document then created the cab from it.
should have said that sorry.
so i was looking for a way to restart device via the xml..
thanks for the input so far

Extracting & Installing Dialer Theme

Hello all,
I got a question related with dialer themes.
I’ve downloaded AVLev’s English cab file (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438412) and extracted it. Then I renamed all the files to JPG, as a hunch, and found out that they are of this type (or similar graphic which the PC can bear). In the XML file there’s a conversion between the name coded files in the cab and the actual graphic files in the windows directory of HTC Diamond.
If I’m not mistaken so far, can I do the following:
> Copy the original graphic files from my diamond to the names in the English cab, and by that create an installation for my original dialer?
> Then, modify the graphic files to any other color or shape (leaving the actual location of buttons in place) and install them as new dialer?
> If something goes wrong, I can always use the original dialer installation I’ve created to go back to the original dialer without having to do hard-reset?
Is that all there’s to it?
I’m asking it because my native language is too rare to participate in the themes celebrations.
Thanks in advance,
Avi

Upgrade Google Maps

I have GoogleMaps 3.0.0.12 pre-installed.
(How) Can I upgrade to GoogleMaps 3.3?
Topaz (Diamond2) / WM 6. unlocked

yes, you definitely can.

Just find the cab and it will install over your current version.

i have checked this version, but i think this link might be a newer version...
thanks to vagrik and his Tiger ROM for this...

you can!
and i recommend, if you do install the newer version, install it on your storage card - so the cache (which is sometimes signifikant), will also go to your SD Card.
regards

The site where u can download version 3.3 from
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Google-Maps-3-3-Released-for-WM-and-Symbian-Phones-128703.shtml

I installed Google Maps v3.3 on my HTC Pure and it never saw my GPS. This was the direct download from Google. It said it did not support my phone. I reverted back to the older version from my Tilt, and that works fine.

Thats because the GoogleMaps 3.3 cab file is programmed bad. It appears to be missing a "\" from all of the reg entry paths and file links. The cab actually installs 2 of the same file. 1 has a correct path... the other is screwed up.
Here is the 3.3 files. If you already have Google Maps installed, then just over write older files with these updated ones.
GoogleMaps doesn't hardly use any reg keys on install. Cooking in GoogleMaps, I've never had to change the reg entries. So you'll be fine just over writing the files.

Thanks for your contribution, I overwrote the zip files but did not notice any difference. Even my version number stays the same: 3.2

Hi there
Can I check that the recommended way to move to v3.3 from the stock version that comes from HTC with the phone is to download the attached CAB file and just run that? Should the install be to the Device or the SD Card? Presumably to overwrite it should be to the same place that the stock version is currently installed...which I assume is the Device? But if one want to take advantage of installing to the SD card so that the cache also resides there (suggestion from earlier poster) who would one uninstall the stock offering that came with the phone?
Apologies for all the questions. I am a newbie and just getting into this.
Cheers
