XDA Exec PHM regedit won't load - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Has anyone else had this problem:
I've downloaded the PHMregedit msi from phm.lu (the activesync desktop installer version) and installed it in the same way as every other add-on, i.e. just double click the msi.
It installs to the desktop machine OK and it pulls up the ActiveSync installer as per normal BUT regedit does not appear on the ActiveSync "programs to install" list.
If I OK the install dialog then the install finishes up as normal but there is no "please check your mobile device for any additional required steps" message and the software is not installed on the XDA.
Everything else that I try installs fine.
Is there some other step I should be doing or is there a problem here?
Thanks
Pete

I just use the CAB file. Here it is:

Drag cab to my device/Documents/ run cab... then I get "unsuccesfull"
Any ideas?

RE
Why don't you try another FREEWARE registry editor, Tascal Registry Editor (TRE), here:-
http://www2r.biglobe.ne.jp/~tascal/download/pocketpc/tre_e.htm
It works well on my QTEK9000 aka Universal

Also read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/UltimateRoundupOfRegistryEditors.asp

Thanks Guys... Should keep me busy for a while/

FWIW, I just had the exact same problem with PHM Registry Editor. It would load up just like another program, launch the ActiveSync program loader, but then nothing would appear on my 8525. I tried soft booting a couple of times and various other combinations with no results...
However, dragging the CAB file to my storage card and then running it from the unit seemed to do the trick. Thanks for posting that cktlcmd!

How to access the registry ?

Hello,
When starting my 9090 I get a message "Impossible to find SmartFilter.exe check the file or the access path..." and the Pocket remains stuck for a while.
I suppose the uninstall process of the trial version of this programm did'nt run complete, and left an entry somewhere.
Searching for 'smartfilter' doens'nt give any result.
Where to search for autorun/autoload folder or key in the registry ?
Thanks for any help.

Go to \windows\startup\ and delete the shortcut for that program. I'm not sure that's your problem, but it sounds like it to me.
If not, then go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7136&highlight=regedit
or search around. I know there are two versions floating on this board. I think the previous is the one I use/prefer. Also, I've been told that when connected via activesync, you can use windows regedit to access your device???? Not sure though.
Good luck, and if you muss up your device, it's NOT MY FAULT!!!!
No way :-/
Thanks, but it's a glue... :?
Neither Windows/startup nore deleting entries of NOVOSEC/Smartfilter helped.
I'm going to reinstall the trial version, and uninstall again :twisted:

Gone !

go to a company called soti - they have a remote regsitry explorer that is very good..

Cab Operator settings

Hello :
What do i have to do to put this mms and internet configs atached working on wm6 ? They are from wm5,
Thnks
Copy on your device and than execute the cab file...

they didnt work..already have done...
Cab to PPC From Windows XP
You don't have to copy the cab to PPC to install the program. You can use this small utility to do the process just like you'll do with .exe files installer.
This utility is posted by Ryubai to PXDXA .
How to:
1. run the command xp_install.cmd inside the cab2PPCfromXP.zip archive to install the utility as a context menu command.
2. when you right-click the cab file,you will see "install to ppc" in contextmenu.click it and a dialog with which you are very simillar pops up......then you know what you should do next.
TQ.
cyphol is there any way to make CAB files like this for any operator?

There's always a way but you have to know the registry keys involved but I think there're many already floating around in this forum so you can try search for them.
Eh...for the Slovenian operators there are no CAB files...thx anyway

Hi, i've just upgraded to WM6 (Black Edition v1.1) without any trouble but i can't connect to the internet via internet explorer, i get the message 'cannot connect'. I've download all cabs (extRom and windows) and ran them all. I've downloaded cab2PPCfromXP.zip and ran that on the PC as described, although nothing much happens.
I have noticed after running t-mobiles cabs that instead of '3G' i now get 'E' which seems a step back.
If i Hard reset my device, can some give step by step directions to me having a normal UK T-mobile phone. I mainly use my phone for emails so i really need this side to work.
Cheers

It's sometimes about wrong configuration of mobile ops settings you entered into the PDAs. So, make sure that everything typed in is correct.

Downloading pdf files with IE on DASH

I am running the WM6 test ROM on my DASH. I have Adobe LE but Mobile IE will not download any pdf files from the web (comes up with an error screen that says "This file type cannot be viewed on the device"). I installed pocketxpdf and it works fine (although it is for WM5 Pocket PCs), but still the same error message when trying to get a pdf from the web. Does anyone know if there is a registry setting I can change to solve this problem. Thanks.

Download "Pocket IE Download Plugin."
SN PIE Download Plugin.cab worked
SN PIE Download Plugin.cab worked. But I wanted to use Pocketxpdf as my reader, and the cab associated "pdf" with "pdffile". So I extracted the cab files and changed all "pdffile" to "xpdffile" and then created a new cab. Now Pocketxpdf opens the file as soon as I download it. Thanks, I would have remained totally lost without your link to the cab.

No problem, and thanks for sharing your modifications.

Running an application

Hi guys,
I'm trying to run a regedit program on my 02 XDA 11s.
I have tried several, and when I try to run the setup or exe I get the following message:
"There is no application associated with SETUP. Run the application first then open this file from within the application"
Any ideas, it must be something simple as I have tried several different programs and all experience this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
whats the file type ?
cab
exe if it's exe you should make sure it's not a pc activesync install
if it's zip
or rar
you should make sure that you have a unpacker for those 2
I think the program I tried to run was not for my mobile device.
Is there a stand-alone regedit program avaiable that I can download.
Thanks,
Rob.

Many thanks.
I think I need to connect via the Sync cable and use the ActiceSync cable as most applications seem to have to be installed this way.
Thanks,
Rob.

unable to update hx4700 2003 - MW6 using Bootloader!

I've read good reviews on chrismrulz's bootlaoder programe and I'm trying to use it to update my iPAQ 4700 from 2003 to WM6. However I am obviously doing something wrong as I just cannot get it to work!
Please can anyone offer any advice?
I hope I am following the exact instructions as mentioned here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325727
and here is what is happening:
Step 1.
Make new folder in root directory.
No Problem c:\Bootloader set up.
Step 2.
Download WM6 ROM and bootloader into file.
Done as directed from links in instructions directly into new folder.
Checked and c:\Bootloader now has 2 files in it Bootloader.exe and WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar
Step 3.
Put hx4700 in bootloader mode and place in sync cradle.
I assume I have done this correctly. Screen goes blank and you can just make out the HP logo it says USB when in cradle and shows version 1.01
Step 4.
Open bootloader and select image.
Ok I go to folder and double click on Bootloader.exe
I get a security warning about the software and ignor by pressing run.
2 things now happen simutaniously. Bootloader.exe expands and creates c:\Bootloader\Bootloader and fills it with more files and directories and....
I get a box asking me to select a file to flash ROM to my device. I change the directory back to C:\Bootloader and select WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar and press open.
I get a message telling me to please wait the file is being extracted and inviting me to press ok. Before I can press ok the box is replaced with a winRAR Diagonistic Message saying c:\Bootloader\WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar no files to extract.
I close this dialog box and get another message telling me to wait whilst it edits files. Then this in turn is replaced by a message saying Error reading file c:\Bootloader\Bootloader\temp_nbf\ I click on OK to acknowledge.
And that’s it nothing else happens.
I've obviously read the instructions wrong or something can anyone help point me in the right direction? Or offer any alternatives?
I'm using Active Sync 3.7.1
Thanks
Phil
Open the rar file (with WinRar), and read the instructions that are in the Readme.txt file... And update your Activesync to version 4.5, which is needed for WM6.
Excellent,
Thank you Ridolfo, so much easier than what I was trying to do. I now have WM6 working and am very pleased with it.
One problem i now have is Activesync 4.5 will not work with my Outlook 2002 I dont suppose anyone knows a workaround or do I have to buy a copy of Outlook 2007?

Very strange indeed, my AS works fine with OL2002... Did you use the MS Office Update to get the latest servicepacks for OL ?

Try these .....
First install JBed, then Opera
Cheers
Dirk
Hi Dirlan,
Thank you for the files. I was already experimenting with Opera so I deleted it from my iPAQ loaded Cloudyfa_EsmertecJbed.cab and then reinstalled Opera.
Unfortunately I get an error message from Jbed saying "the file jbed cannot be opened. Either it is not signed or one of its components cannot be found.
Any ideas?

After extracting using WinRAR
Trying to upgrade from 2003 to WM6 ...
After extracting WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar using WinRAR I am trying to follow the instructions in the readme.txt (as Bootloader didn't work for me as in the first post in this thread):
From readme.txt
To begin with if you want to flash your device using cradle,you have to:
1.In processes (CTRL+ALT+DEL) you must kill Wcesscom.exe
2.Then Enter in Bootloader (Contacts+iTask+Reset)
3.Put your device on usb cradle.
4.Run mtty11a.exe
5.In "Port" choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click OK
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0
7.Wait
8.Enjoy yourself
As I'm not all that familiar with this can someone explain in step-by-step what's involved with the mtty11a.exe application, and Step 6?
Currently my hx4700 is what I think in bootloader mode (Screen is dim an I can barely make out "USB" the hp logo and the current version "v1.01"). I previously tried the original WM5 upgrade and it just dies on me at 0.1%.
Hi tk2000
As I posted the original post I know exactly what you are going through. However once I went through the instructions you are currently trying to use every thing went smoothly. You have extracted the .rar file and are unsure of the mtty11a.exe file.
Assuming you have you have killed Wcesscom.exe on your pc as in step 1,
and the device in in its cradle in bootloader mode (as you described very faint HP logo, USB and version 1.01 displayed).
Then double click on the mtty11a.exe as in step 4. This then brings up an application and you will see a dropdown menu next to port, simply select the option \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click ok.
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0 now this stage I was a little unsure of myself I simply typed "lnb OS_WM6.nb0" in from the keyboard and pressed enter and it started to load. This takes a few minutes but afterwards you should have WM6 on your device.
I had to do a couple of hardware restarts and it took a few minutes in its cradle but it all works fine for me.

Hi Phil,
There should be an 'opera-unsigned*.cab' somewhere here on the forum. I didn't try it because Opera works fine for me.
Sorry
Dirk
Phil3099, I a followed the instructions exactly but I don't see a status bar on the pda. mtty showes the progress with lines of + but the 4700 stays on the hp logo screen with USB on top.
