since win 7 was published, WINCE CAB MANAGER seems to give up on updating itself to be compatable in win 7. After the installation, no matter how you run it, whether under comapatable mode of winxp sp2 or not, it never works properly.
today, i found how to make it work!
it's really simply, though.
right click the install file, then run it under the compatable mode of winxp sp2, and then, it's done!
remember you have to run the compatable when installing. then you can double click on the program to run as you do to other programs in win 7.

I'm using the latest version and i haven't had a problem with installing it or running but i do have UAC turned off because it irritates the crap out of me. All i did was just plain run the installer.
Their have been a couple of programs that i have had to install in compatibility mode but they were games and i haven't had to do it for about a year

O.k. for everyone who's traying to Flash in Vista
Donwload the files from this link: http://rapidshare.com/files/38401715/Manual_and_files.rar.html
and extract them in a new created folder like for example your desktop. Extract the USB Modem Vista in a different folder on your desktop (easy to find)
- put your device in bootloader mode (press and hold power, light and softreset button)
- connect the MDA to your computer.
- open computer management (devicemanager) in vista, rightclick computer in startmenu and select manage (see step 1)
- in computermanager open devicemanager (step 2)
- follow step 3 and 4.
After step 4 browse to the folder where you extracted the USB Modem Vista and choose next.
It will install the active sync drivers to vista and you will be able to flash.
I attached a exit bootloader file to exit bootloader mode (you can also install drivers without flashing the device)
YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO EXIT BOOTLOADER MODE!!!! EVEN BEVORE FLASHING!!!!
If you do it properly it will be done in less than 4 minutes.
Good luck.

Nope. In Vista with current drivers and updates the driver cannot be updated to an older one; neither in bootloader mode (uknown USB device) nor in standard mode (PocketPC).

Don't hate if you're a noob With Vista
Download my package and see for yourself mate!
I run Vista Business for almost 6 months and I'm flashing trough Vista for quite a long time now. Even now after upgrading the Windows Mobile Device Center.
So as far as I know your post is based on nonsence!!!
As I've said many many times, you have to do it exacly the way I wrote it.
Pro to noob
for your info, I've been using Vista for about two years.
building and flashing ROMs for 3 years now.
I do not argue with possibility to flash ROM in Vista.
I do argue with possibility to use your instruction universaly in all standard Vista installations.
I've seen and tried both possibilities myself.
Universal in boot mode:
"The best driver software for your device is already installed.
Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date.
Uknown Device."
Have you ever seen this message? I doubt.
I've seen that message when you don't do it correctly.
I'm not going to discuss with you if it works or not. And as far as being a pro... been working at microsoft for 6 years. Cheers mate! and good luck flashing building or whatever it is that you do.
Nonesence Again.

I was using vista since beta1, and i have been using WMDC since its beta stages. And i do have to confirm the method with updating your drivers with AS ones works Perfectly. Try again, but dont search for drivers, update it manualy, AND, dont forget to untick ALLOW USB CONNECTION in WMDC before pluging in a bootloaded device. That really does work a charm.
But what about Vista 64 version? This driver don't want to install on Vista 64...

I think he meant when the retail version of Windows 7 comes out on October 22nd...The windows XP virtualization mode will be available for download off of the Microsoft website then...
All this assuming that you are running the RC1...Im running the same and ive had problems as well sooo im hoping that windows 7 XP mode fixes that...
i'm using full version of windows 7 but whatever...
I found a windows vista installer and there was no error's,but it don't connect to the device when it's in bootloader mode.It's connects to the pc,but the installers shows that there is connection problem..
but even with the full version of window7 ultimate one still have to download and install windows XP virtualization mode
to get xp mode to work
where to get that virtualization mode?
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
thx.it worked.
Has anyone had a problem when using this method of remounting their device when the RUU begins the update process? Its working for me but barely....its really hit or miss...anyone have this down to a science? Thanks in advance!
Has anyone found a way to install wmdc on windows 7? I just can't do it.. the cd that came with my td2 fails at install.. and the downloaded version, well, nothing ever happens I've even tried running as admin, compatibility with vista, and don't even have my AV nor UAC enabled.
why don't you just download the latest version from Microsoft? I run Win7 and didn't experience any trouble.

i'm guessing because he is unable to pass genuine validation...some people cant/wont buy windows...
Theoretically speaking if he's running a non genuine Windows 7 I'm pretty sure he activated it with one of dozens of existing tricks (otherwise why installing it, for a month usage?). He would then pass validation easily.
Downloading the one from Microsoft worked perfectly for me
Simply connect TD2 to your PC and run windows update.
I have a folder for android stuff like fastboot and adb that I keep for fixing my phone. I keep the minimum files required for fastboot to work... adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, fastboot.exe and the 64bit usb drivers.
I used to be able to use fastboot even after formatting my computer (and reinstalling the drivers), but it's been a long time and when I tried to do the same again, it no longer works.
Windows says the driver is not compatible with the device. I download Android SDK Tools to download the usb drivers there. They install, but fastboot still doesn't detect the phone.
I tried following tutorials out there to get fastboot to work, but I tried on 2 HTC Dreams and they don't get detected. What am I missing?
Only thing I remember being different is that I'm using Windows 7 x64 SP1 now and before I was using plain Windows 7 x64.
You need to use the usb driver removal tool and install the usb driver from SDK.
yes you've got my same trouble.

i solved with backtrack 3.. don't ask me why because i don't know.. i just have a try with bt3 because i use bring it with me on my pendrive (it can ever be useful )

The old drivers I had were never installed. For some reason, Windows did not recognize a compatible driver. I did download a fresh set of drivers from SDK and windows did install them, but fastboot devices is not listing anything.

I see no reason why I can't use fastboot on Windows if it worked before. Perhaps if there is no other way, I'll try Linux distros.
It sound like there is no compatible driver for Windows 7 x64 SP1. Check google to see may be they might have an updates.

So there is an actual difference between win7 and sp1 in regards to the drivers and not that I set it up wrong?
From my experience on working with Windows. Every version always different. As far as how much different, I can't tell.
If you had it working with W7 before SP1, then there is a change in driver that causing it not to work correctly. Do you required to upgrade to W7 SP1? Or is that your preference?

Well that's all I can think of. Just wanted to know if anyone else had problems with sp1. I think faastboot should work with my winxp vms.. gonna try that next time I try to use fastboot..
Hello...
I just set up a Windows Phone developer account and registered my phone (HTC 8x) as a developer unlocked phone.
I have build an app with PhoneGap build and I can download the .xap, but I have yet to figure out how to install it.
Using a QR Reader asks if I want to search the store for something to open the file.
I've seen tutorials on how to build a PhoneGap app within Visual Studio.
I haven't seen any means of installing it from PhoneGap Build, though.
Any ideas?
JJ
The SDK installs a tool called Application Deployment on your PC. Run that, connect your phone via USB, and use it to sideload the XAP.
Man, it would be great if you could install them directly from the PhoneGap site (like iOS and Android - I haven't tested Blackberry).
Having to do it from a computer that has, at least, a Core i5 CPU and Visual Studio is kind of jacked.
Also, I can only have 3 developer devices on my account.
Apple allows 99, I think.
Of course, Android doesn't even require to to register a device (just turn on the "install unapproved apps" feature.

You do not need SLAT (i5 CPU) to side load things.
That is for emulators only.
There is homebrew to do that on WP7. We'll just have to figure out a way on WP8. It's not very hard, once we can get the needed permissions.

Well, that's handy to know.
It would still be nice to not require Windows 8 and Visual Studio just to install an app.
JJ
And don't need to be a W8, you can install xap's on Windows 7.

Has anyone been able to do this on Windows 7 x64 machine ? I am sure I am just missing something...
I downloaded "Windows Phone Power Tools" after installing .NET 4.5 but, it just gives me an error of "Unable to install or run the applications. The application requires that assembly Microsoft.SmartDevice.Connectivity version 11.0.0.0 be installed in the Global Accembly Cashe (GAC) first." when I attempt to run it..
As most of us know, SDK 8.0 REQUIRES Windows 8, I would love to be able to install XAPs on Windows 7 so I don't have to reboot my PC to use my Windows 8 partition just to install a quick XAP time to time. I can't download or find where to download the full install to extract a few fles as said in the directions...
Any idea to get this installed ?
I didn't get it working with my Windows 7 workstation.
I have a Windows 8.1 laptop, so I just use it.
Being able to do it at work would be nice, though.

You can install the WP8 SDK on Windows 7...it works just fine. The secret that Microsoft doesn't want you to know is that the WP8 SDK can be installed on Server 2008 R2...Server 2008 R2 is based on Windows 7 x64. Therefore, it will work with no issues.
