I have seen this topic discussed before HERE on post #726. However, the described method has not worked for me. I am trying to create a Windows 8.1 Tile for Popcorn Time using OblyTile. Whenever I try to enter Popcorn Time's "Program Path" into OblyTile and run it, it opens up the "Node Webkit" program in what looks to be a browser page. I've tried to create a .bat file and run that through OblyTile in order to open Popcorn time but that does not work either.
The .bat file is as follows:
@echo off
cd /d %~dp0
cd /d ..
Start "" "node-webkit\popcorn time.exe" App
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The Popcorn Time .exe file is located at this target
"C:\Users\Brandon\AppData\Local\Popcorn Time\node-webkit\Popcorn Time.exe"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does anybody have any suggestions as to how I could create a Popcorn Time Tile with OblyTile and get it to work on the Windows 8.1 Start Screen?
Here's a screenshot showing what I have:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Problem Solved
The issue was my batch file. I changed it to this and it now works:
Code:
@echo off
cd /d %~dp0
cd /d ..
Start "" "node-webkit\popcorn time.exe" . App

This How To will show you step by step how to create a cab file.
You can cab up anything you want to put on your phone in ANY directory...
Cab Manager Program
I use and recommend WinCE Cab Manager (Get it HERE)
it has a 30 day free trial and is $99 after that...
Sure there are more out there... Feel free to Post
Getting Started
First you will need a file to cab. We will start with a basic single manila file.
i have attached one if you don't already have..
* Here you can simply add a document/picture to your my documents folder
After Installing Open WinCE Cab Manager
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Enter Name's for Company and whatever cab your making
Just Click Next..
Just Click Next Again....
And now click finish...
Now this should be what you have. Displays all info for cab file
Now we need to add the files.
From windows explorer just click and drag the files right on top of Files...
Once you do that the following dialog box pops up...
Here you can change name or attributes
Click Location tab
Here you can choose what directory to put file(s) in. you can also add a new folder
Click Ok
Now back at main screen
Here you can "Allow Uninstall"
also you can Compress
I recommend compressing for files over a meg or two
From the menu click CABINET...PROPERTIES...
Here you can change ALL properties of cab file
Click OK...
Back at the Main Screen...
All left to do is review and Save
You can also add Shortcuts and make changes to the registry...
Now to Save...Choose location and SAVE!

Awesome, thank you!! I'd been looking at some other "how-to-cab" guides, this one seems to be as simple as can be
Looks like I've got my weekend project all lined up now
This mini guide is to show you how to get your Focus as a USB drive and with a properly icon. The default Windows icon for a mobile player was very childish (like from xp), mine looks like this:

In addition to the files supported by ZUNE, what other file types can be transferred from PC to WP7 device?

None because those files are not exposed (other partition?)

No, only things exposed by the phone like photos and videos.

Man thats great thanx!

Can't believe I haven't thanked you yet. I've been using this for about a month now, and one thing everyone should know, is this tool has an extra advantage. Contrary to the m10 Editor UI Application, this script uses straight command line which makes all of your sense 3.0 m10 images decode with the same file name every time, where as the UI will give you random file names every time. And this is way simpler
Amresh, This was an ingenious idea and I can't thank you enough!

CRT Animation On/Off running any GB rom (2.3.x)
Here is the screen Off/On animations mod. An awesome tweak which makes your phone's sleeping animations like old tv's shutting down.
Lets Begin.
[NOTE: Im not responsible for any bricked devices.]
Things needed
1. JAVA - Click Here
2. APK MANAGER - Click Here
3. Notepad++ - Click Here
Procedure
1. Download all the above applications.
2. Open APKMANAGER folder and place your roms "framework-res.apk" in "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder.
(framework-res.apk is placed in "/system/framework/here")
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Open APKMANAGER folder and open "Script.bat".
4. Open "script.bat" and press "9" and hit enter. (this decompiles your framework-res.apk)
5. If sucessful, close this script and go to "APKMANAGER"/"projects"/"framework-res.apk"/"res"/"values" folder. Open "bools.xml"
6. Change
"<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>"
to
"<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">false</bool>"
7. Again open script.bat and click on "11". (It will compile the application)
8. It will ask whether it is a system application or not, type "y" and hit enter.
9. It will show
"Aside from the signatures, would you like to copy over any additional files that you didn't modify
from the original apk in order to ensure least # of errors (y/n)
Press "y" and hit enter!
10. It will do the extracting. DO NOT PRESS ANY KEY NOW.
11. Open "APKMANAGER" folder, there will be a new folder "keep". Delete "resources.arsc" file from there.
12. Now open script and hit enter.
And the most IMPORTANT part.
After flashing framework go to settings>Display>Animations, select "All Animations".
AND if you dont want the animation simply change
"<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">false</bool>"
to
"<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>"

Install apps over ADB
Install apks on any Android device running any Android version over ADB!
Hi all,
From a long time i was fiddling around with a problem of installing/downloading apps after installing a new ROM.
Thus i came up with an idea of a Batch File to install all of your apks from your system
to your phone in a few tips and taps. Hah! Found my solution .
How does it look?
To see some screenshots, please click below.
Tested on
The script had been tested on Nexus 5x, Nexus 5, Moto G4 but should work on any android device.
Downloads
Google Drive - Here is the link to Drive.
Link Below - You can also find the file below.
Installation instructions
Prerequisites
1. Platform Tools for Windows (ADB),
2. APK files,
3. Target phone connected to PC and
4. A cup of COFFEE or TEA as you like it.
Process
1. Download it from the attachments below or from the drive link above or here.
2. Copy the file to the ADB folder.
3. Execute the file.
4. You can either place your apps in "D:\Apps" folder. (Sllloooowwwww.....)
ORChange the folder location in batch file itself. (Requires some Coding Skills)
ORBatch file will ask you to change the location, if required. (Easy Installation, Pick Me!)
Troubleshooting
I don't think it's needed. But even then if you get any problem do write. I'll be happy to resolve it.
Enjoy, and also don't forget to write anything (Good, Bad or Thanks etc.)!
thank you so much if works like a charm!
Been locking for something similar.
Is it possible to take that script to next level, and make it as, a list of apps, and for them to be downloaded on the phone. I mean give order through ADB for each apps step by step, instead of folder, to be downloaded.
how to add online option like google drive folder in to the script
