Is there any place that tells me what all the different . CAB files do? I am very new to all this and will have a my Wing here tmrw and would like to customize it some. I have read through the noob guide and all that and feel I can do a ROM upgrade by following the instructions, but I just dont know what all the different .CAB files do.
Where are you getting them? If you're getting them from here there's usually a description in the thread they're posted in.
I just read the whole post "JUST .cab FILES FOR THE HTC TMO WING. ALL IN ONE PLACE" and it answered a few of them but it would be helpful to have a description by each one.
Gotcha, yeah, that's thread's a bit of a mess. I don't think a new thread about it is going to get much more response than all the replies about the same problem in the original thread though...... but yeah, it would be nice.
maybe as i get more familier with my phone and modding it i can whipe together a .cad dictionary or somethihng
Yeah. It would also be nice to have at least a screen shot of the app with each post... but I understand why people don't do it. They're already going out of their way and it takes time.
I dont understand what you're getting confuse with.... post the names of some of the cabs that confuse you and I or someone else will answer what they are.

I don't remember what btasp.cab is.
Paticakeman, here's one thing that helps half the time: If you open the CAB file with WinRAR you'll find a xml file named _setup.xml. This contains the installer's title of the package. Sometimes it'll have the developer's URL or at least a full app name you can search will and get better results. Of course you still need to D/L the CABs first.
btasp.cab: (this doesn't say much to me) and yes, I've searched a lot for this and the makers' site is now gone.
Description inside the cab: "TrianglePowers.com BlueTooth Audio"
And this is what all the D/L sites list as the description: "Desire to listen to your harmony stored on your Small PC but don't desire to carry around a corded headset. If you've got a BlueTooth headset then you're in good fortune."
So I still have NO idea...
Another would be the HTC Audio Manager I see in many threads, what is this? Is it an EQ? A hardware manager for the sound system? Or is it perhaps a playlist editor? I have searched for info about this and I must be using the wrong terms because I come up empty.
Hi, Well I have finally got round to finishing enough of this application to give you a version. Unfortunately all the features I wanted to release are not there but its close enough. Future versions will incorporate these.
This application is basically a sound board with the ability to add user created content.
As before, requires .Net 3.5 CF.
The sample sound themes included in the application are a little weak and could do with some extra ones being created. Post your creations in the thread please
There are two types of themes available, a button theme and an image theme.
The button theme uses positionable windows image buttons to play the sounds.
The image theme uses an image to play the sounds. So for example you would have 2 images one for the background on the application for the user to see and one for the application to use. The overlay image will contain a single block of colour where you want to place a button, this colour is then indexed in the themes XML file. So when you press down on the background the colours are matched and the matching sound played.
The best way to get to grips with the themes is to look at two of the themes I have provided. The XML files are fully commented and quite simple to understand.
Example of ButtonTheme, \content\Roy Walker\RoyWalker.xml
Example of Imagetheme, \content\Mr T\MRT.xml
I am sure there will be bugs, but I wanted to get a release out as soon as possible to get some user created content. Please post any creations on this thread and I will include them in the .cab file with the next version.
Any feedback or suggestions please post on this thread also.
Future features:
Volume Control
More audio support, e.g. mp3 etc
Options to save last theme and other stuff
visual feedback on an Imagetheme button press, perhaps a greying of an area (Simple but havent had the time)
Any way have fun!!

Attached are a few screenshots of my bad attempts at themes.
The "wrong" button sound effect is not from catchphrase, but from Family Fortunes. As far as I remember, they didn't have a sound for that. Roy Walker simply said "It's a good guess but it's not right", which for me beeged the question, how is it a good guess then? Anyway, I'm not fussy. It's a great, useless, fun little program. We need more of these!!
Thanks.
Yeah you are right, I was just being lazy! But ah well, hopefully myself or someone else will create a family fortunes theme for it.
I also need to get some more Roy Walker sounds added in, a few people on the forum have given me links though.
Work seems to steal all of my time these days. Stupid work!
Cant wait to try it. Thanks for your hard work.
I can't play any sound when I'm on the phone. Neither I, or the one I'm on the phone with can hear anything.. What am I doing wrongd?
To be honest I never even thought about someone trying to use it during a phone call!
Interesting idea though...
I am slowing working on a few more themes, when I get time during work of course. Unfortunately my artistic skills are a little weak.
But I have created piano theme also, much like the one for the IPhone. Need to create some others also.
I was kinda hoping other people would create some content. It is easy enough
i am up for this....let me know how i can make some themes!
woooohooo
i have made a new theme! (well based on the mr t one supplied)
BETTER SOUNDS AND IMAGE!
i would like to know if someone can tell the screen size the program displays as it is not 480*800 as in the specs (it looses some from header and footer)
if anyone would like the theme i have made please Private message me i will mail it to you (as i do not know how to link)
i am currently working on another FAR TSUPERIOR theme just need the right images and screen size before i mail it out.
about time i found an app that i can have fun with! (like those iphone apps!)
cheers original poster for this!
I there, a have been searching for a while for an application that a could use to make something like the iphone idrummer (because of the daft punk kits) since i dont know how to make one, just modify them.
So here are my versions of Daft Punk "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" and "Aerodynamic". Just ad the files to the content file of the application and select them on the application and you are ready to go.
The thing is, they were made for QVGA version (240x320), so for other screen dimensions just modify the size of the background images and buttons, and coordinates also.
Hope you enjoy them (sorry for my possible bad english)
Anyway thanks to the creator of the application, and if anyone could make a new application more suited for a possible version of idrummer for those that dont have a iphone its always welcome
Haha i was just about to come here and ask if someone could port this http://www.noblefart.com/ across from the andrioid but since this sound board is very similar then maybe it could be intergrated into this!!
Is it possible to make it so that someone on the phone can hear the sounds?
This would be then great for prank calls. It would then also be useful to let you set your voicemail message as an mp3 - just dial your vm, choose record greeting and hit the soundboard button...
is there any way u can make a soundboard for family feud?
A while back I was browsing about and came across a thread on here in another catagory with some files to change the battery icon to have colours depending on the battery level. (the icons in the top right) I believe these were for the touch HD, but I have been unable to find the thread since.
What I am wanting to know is, is there a way to say take the icons off the device, are they stored in the windows folder as .gif's or .png's for instance, so that I could edit them and change them.
Im not too familiar with this business, but im not a fan of the plain white icons and would like to jazz them up a tiny bit. Though I have a feeling they will be cooked? into the rom so that one would need to cook? them in and onto a custom rom.
Now obviously I know this can be done one way or another but the reason for posting here is wanting to know if this could be done on the Xperia. I imagine so as it's just WM6 and nothing specific to the Xperia, but wasn't too sure. Thus creating the thread in here.
Apologies if I posted this in the wrong place.
EDIT: In my haste to become the worlds fastest post creator, I have come across a thread with information on changing the start icon.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378084&highlight=battery+icon&page=8
One would presume it would be the same for the other icons, but I shall have to check after following that thread.
Though I still cannot seem to find the thread with the icons already in which I mentioned earlier.
I'm fairly new to programming but I thought I would have a go at an app that could help people flash roms, radios, change themes, find new apps etc. The app is simple (and I meen really simple) at the moment but I am hoping to extend its functionality soon. Basically what the app does is provide you with the tools, download links and instructions that you will need to flash a rom/radio/spl etc to your device.
I have also tried to include links to the best apps, mods & tweaks that your device has to offer, this part of the app is in early development at the moment but it is quickly growing.
I am programming this in c# and I'm a bit of a nuub at it so if there are any developers out there who like the look/idea of the app then please feel free to contact me, I will glady give the source code to anyone who wants it as I would like this app to be as helpful and usefull as it can.
Feedback is much appreciated and I would love some requests or ideas?

i cant believe over 100 views and no one has any ideas or feedback for me, i know its not the best program in the world but a few replys would be nice.
This would be ideal for looking into things instead of using the lame "search" feature (no offense) or keep looking through the pages .
But the tile is a lil bit misleading, as ROM Helper doesn't actually describes what does the app do . I mean it's just my opinion to change to something more informative, like ROM instructor for instance, title .
Also you won't draw attention in here, try posting it in a more specific section : ) .
Such a good app, keep up the good work because that what our community should do ! I wish i was a developer, even a noob one : ), cuz i have lots of apps' ideas but they're just in my head !
Keep it up

thanks for the words of encouragement, your feedback has been very helpful
I think you have a typo. You wrote KernAL insead of Kernel.
Its a great programm and i was looking for somethink like this a long time ago.
i know its a hell of work, but a start screen where you can search according to things like "6.5 or 6.5.3" and "cookie or "non-cookie", etc. I think its impossible because its just to much work as i guess you are connecting all the face manually.
Anyway, thanks a lot, i like it!
OT- Edit! I just noticed your Шапка-Ушанка - have u been to russia lately?

thanks and cheers about the typo, i will change it now, new version is being uploaded as i type this. and i wanted to add a search function but it wasnt working for me, im sure ill get round to it tho.
also i have been to russia but not recently, got my hat from outside the big museum in st petersburg, ive been learning to speak a bit of russian too for a hobby. dont know how you spell it in russian but i can say it ok "boy apinima paruski" lol
This is a great concept and could be a fantastic alternative to searching through the forums for what you need.
I'm sure you're still working on it, but at the moment some of the ROM headers link only to their download page (i.e. hotfile), and not to a description.
It looks like a lot of work, but it would be great if it becomes a comprehensive resource. Thanks for all of your effort!

Chipped From The Bunker Via My HD2
I basically want to make a theme like this one found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943423
But im having a hard time finding out which pngs i need to actually change, and which colours i need to change in the xmls to get it looking like that. Id rather not port it over as alot of the stuff is low res, and all the file names are completely different for most of the stuff.
any help would be great.
Thanks
