What file manager are you using? File Explorer?

File manager and search for the file

What are you trying to install? If it's a huge cab, you're better of installing it to the sdcard. Anyway, thry the following steps:
1. Browse to the location of the cab
2. Select it to begin installation
3. Answer the question to where do you want to install it "sdcard or phone memory"
4. After installation is completed, go to the start menu and you might find it there, depending on what you installed, you might have to look in other places.

Thanks for the tip! Work fine

Question from beginner! How to install programs?

Hi guys. First of all, I'm new to WMO. I've downloaded Gyrator 2, PCMKeyboard, and the TuneUp file. Now, I've transfered these to the phone, both on the SD-card, and in the internal memory. However, when I try to run them, from File Explorer, it opens them in what I think, is Opera. And the screen stays white, nothing happens. This goes for all the files. Can anyone explain me, in an easy way, how you do this?
you could be reading the link in my sig and let me know if it helps...
Thanks - but that didn't help. I actually did it exactly like you wrote it.
For those of you with Gyrator 2 installed, this is what happens to me:
I copy it to the storage card, then open the gyrator file. Files list up, like this:
_setup
00Events
0Gyrator
0Gyrator
And much more. The only file working, is of course the _setup file, which shows with a Opera-ikon, for some reason. So, if I try to run the _setup, a white screen appears, and nothing happens. If I try to run any of the other files, which shows with a Windows-ikon, I get an error, telling me to first open Gyrator 2, then run the file via the program.
For running gyrator you need also Net compact framework 3.5 installed.

I've installed gyrator in this way:
copied the gyrator install file to storage card
run the file using file explorer
after that I've installed also Net compact framework from the link above in the same way

It does indeed (I'll update the wiki page, cheers for that )
Bungieman - the SD tuneup .cab doesn't need it though - what happens when you try to run that?
Same thing, two files, one with "_setup", which has a Opera - ikon.
If this were PC windows, I'd say that somehow the .cab files had been associated to the wrong program.
Clicking a .cab ought to run it, not open it up and show you what is inside!
There should be no need to run the _setup manually - simply clicking the .cab should take care of all that...
I take it you haven't managed to install anything yet?
The HD is as it arrived in the box?
I had similar issue with another program. I saw opera setup icon, run it and there was only white screen in opera browser...
What I did wrong, was that I unpacked the .cab file on the phone's card - the PC showed me that it is packed file, like .zip or .rar and I extracted it to the phone.
So I had only to copy .cab file to phone's memory card and run it there (using file explorer) without extracting it. Then the program installed succesfully
You do know that you can just use your phones browser, find the file and click on it and then save it direct to your SD card? Much easier and then you just go to file explorer and click on the file and it installs. That is as long as it is a cab file, if its a msi file like the net framework thing is then you need to run it from your pc with ur phone connnected.
The reason why Opera being brought up running the "_setup.xml", is you don't need to extract the contents in the .cab file to begin the installation..
Just copy the .cab file to the SD card and run it thru File Explorer.
If you're not sure if it's a .cab file, open it in WinRAR to see the Address Bar what it shows, or turn on the option in the Windows Explorer for showing file extensions..

help please

WHY did you unpack it ? You must only...
(... go to the Search in xda-dev's and if don't find anything, ask for, and you'll be told that cab's are installed...)
...copying the CAB into the device (better into the SD card) and execute it using the File Explorer.
****** IMPORTANT ******
Please, before installing any CAB, get sure it's safe. Maybe you'll need to install first a "SafeMode" starter in your device, so that you'll able to boot it when you destroy almost everything by using an unsafe CAB or EXE.
**********************
Before continuing (I see you posted only 3 times and your question is a basic one), please read the conditions and the suggestions for newbies. It's the safest way to preserve your device from bricking it (that's called, "you'll be only able to use it as a wall brick but not to phoning or computing")
when i download the cab into jzip it unpack it by itself
Well... that's easy.
Just download it like a usual file. Right-click on the link and choose "save as", so that Jzip will not open it by itself. Save it into a folder, i.e. "My downloaded CABs"
Try to install a "safemode" manager for your device. Thus, you'll be able to boot it when your installation will be the wrong way. A good ROM (maybe the original for your device if you didn't play with it) is also necessary near to you for the same reasons.
Also, try to download and launch a CAB analizer like MSCEInf.exe and you'll be able to understand what is into your CAB, TSK and some other files you feed into your device. The most of the problems when installing something come because you're using the wrong version, or because the installation asks for a startup process or a change in the registry, and looking into the CAB will allow you to modify the installation.
Then, you may use Activesync or similar to put the CAB into the device (better into the SD card if you have small space to put files, as happens with the Herald). You may also switch off the phone (this is OFF, not hybernated!!) and take the microSD card and put the files inside via USB reader.
Launch the File Explorer (better if you use other managers, I like TotalCommander) and tap on the CAB file. Remember if you didn't modify the settings, the CAB will be erased once it will be installed.
If you have not many space in your "programs RAM" you can move the files from \windows\appmgr to a similar folder into your SD card. Do not delete them, as you'll need those files/folders when you'll uninstall some app.
*****WARNING***** If this is your first experience with Windows Mobile, take a surf into this web and read, read, read, print hardcopies of everything you'll consider interesting, and only after this you'll be able to work with your device with no danger to damage it forever. (you'll only damage it for some hours, till you'll have hard-reseted it).
thank u so much

How to install apps

So I tried to search but couldnt find what I was looking for.
How do you exactly install apps, themes or games properly on this phone. The only program I found that somewhat worked was Omarket. Reading here in the forums people suggested that all the apps or themes I would need were here. I found both apps and themes I like but cannot get them on the phone to work.
I download the the theme or app on my computer then I make a custom folder on my SD card then extract all the files to that folder. When I go back into my phone and try to do a set up I get taken to a blank white screen that says something like
file://localhost/Storage%20Card/<name of program or app>
Im new to this phone been trying to research alot about it.
I tried finding all the "noob" post to read but maybe Im not finding the right ones
If for some reason you needed to know my software info here it is.
ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version: 2.10.20.26
Thx for any and all of your help. Im trying! =P
Apps that can be installed from the phone will have a .cab extension. Locate the folder with the .cab files and click on one. It will start the install process.
Apps with .exe extensions will need to be loaded from you computer. Make sure your device is hooked up via activesync and click the .exe app you want to install.
So for the .cab files I have to go to the website from my phone and download them there for it to be on my phone properly? Or is there any way I can download them to my desktop then transfer it to my phone and then install it on my phone?

"How to install a cab.
You simply download the cab to your computer. Then, copy/paste the cab to your storage card using the USB connection. Then, using your file explore on your phone locate the cab file in your storage card and install it by double taping the file. Install onto device or storage card. I prefer installing onto the storage card."
Take a look at my sticky, you'll find it to be very helpful.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663845
you can do it either way. If you download them to your desktop, connect your phone via active sync, copy the cab and past it to where ever it is that you want to save it on your phone. (sd card is prefferred for space reasons) after that, open the location where the cab is stored and you can run it from there. If you download from your phone, determine where you want to save the cab, your options will be device and card. You will also have an option to save in a specific folder. after that, locate the cab and instal.

Which OS do you have?
Which ROM are you using?
Which clocks did you try install?
Why didnt you use a proper title, ie descriptive of topic? ("need help" is not a topic title)
what you've done is extracted the cab files.
download them again, take the files that you downloaded and run them on your phone, they might look like zip or .rar files but they aren't they are cab files which you should just place on your sd card an tap to run them.
always install clocks and things to main memory..
hope that helps...
thats what i did but everytime i open the file it keeps taking me to opera
can you give us a link to the thread you downloaded from or attach the files you downloaded to a post in this thread...
also for some reason i cant drag and drop to main memory, always just memory card, i dont get that

thats probably because your selecting the usb storage option when you connect to the pc. if you choose activesync them you can access the device memory....
you don't need to store the cabs in main memory, just install them to main memory when prompted during the installation process....
Rawrscary's Neon Sliders2.zip is the file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=678863 url
ok the cabs are inside the folders named by colour so if you want the blue one then open up "blue" place the cab on your device and tap on it....
I guarantee you those cabs are fine because I've been using them for a looooong time....

[Q] WinCE 4.2 gps device, access to windows files? (SOLVED)

Have Tevion gps device, wince 4.2, no usb port, just sd card. It have Igo8 software that loads automatically on boot. I managed to unlock device with some program and gain access to all win folders. Then, accidentally, I moved some important file from Flash Disk on internal memory and now device just boot to splash screen and nothing more. That file called Igolaunch.exe and I have it, just don't have access anymore to windows files to copy it on right place. Without that file device don't know what to do, and do nothing, just boot to splash image. The windows files, registry, are intact, just need to copy back Igolaunch.exe to it's original location. So, is there any way to gain access to win files again, like force load some explorer from sd card on boot, or something like that, just to copy back the file? Any other solution, some reset, maybe? Thanks.
Try this: http://www.austech.info/gps/84958-gps-ce-6-0-rescue-disk.html
Note: You must register with Austech to see the download link.
YESSS! Success!
Thank you very much! This is just that I needed! Followed instructions and boot in explorer (desktop), copy-back the igolaunch.exe to it's original location and everything working again! Thanks again!

I need help to get access to win files and folders. And is there any way to flash/crack/hack/root this device to Win CE 6 or something?:crying:

First you wrote that you need help to get access to win files and folders, that software enable you to do that.
If you want to change appearance and gps software that device is using, you need to unlock device. There is a lot of tutorials how to do that, just google it. For example, you can try this:
