deleting or move short cuts via cab file?!?!? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

i have the 8125/wizard.. was wondering if its possible to create a cab that will delete shortcuts... here is what i am trying to do.. I would like to take all the pocket app's like excel and word, etc and delete or move the shortcuts from the programs menu and put them in nice and neat little folder in the programs menu! any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cab files can't delete or move shortcuts, only create them. If you can program in c / c++ you can easily create a setup.dll for the cab that will do it.

Is there a registry tweak that will allow for the creation of additional folders in to store SMS ?
Great ROM... thanks
Also... the very cool looking vista taskbar that SVOM and others are using, any ideas where to grab that... I have searched but to no success.

Not sure if you can create more folders but there is a hack to tore them on your card(if you have one)

Yup, easy!
Using File Explorer go to Windows/Start Menu, then either into Programs or Settings and simply delete the lnk files for the program icons that you want to lose. Alternatively you can create a folder in either Programs or Settings called say, "Others" and cut and paste all the disused lnk files into it. This way you don't lose all the original links (sometimes hard to recreate them all, if you need them subsequently!).
thanks
thanks ... this is what i used from xda community.
fast and right answer
i got my answer, thread can be closed.

[PC-APP] FindDup - find duplicate files in your ROM

Hi,
I want to share small PC tool - FindDup. I have made it several years ago, as I wanted to know how much disk space is wasted by exactly the same files.
The main feature of this program - it compares all the files in given folders binary and it can found duplicates even if the names of files are different.
I use it now to optimize size of my ROM.
For example - you can see there are 298 junk files, total wasted size 1,56 mb in dumped Mega OEM packages.
HOWTO use:
1. Add folder to "Look in" list. You can use drag'n'drop.
2. Select "Search \ Start" from menu, or click "Start" icon on the toolbar.
3. If there are duplicates - you will see them in a list.
Known issues:
1. It looks like it cannot save result to file under XP. I have made it for Windows 2000 and I need to find sources to fix this...
Download link: FindDup
thanks!
just started cooking, will try to find duplicates on my rom!
Be careful. This tool just give you information. You must to know how to use this information.
For example: Ervius Kitchen copies all the files to "temp" folder. It's OK to have duplicates in temp and for example SYS.
But if there are duplicate Manila resources in dump folder, may be you can edit HTCHomeSettings.xml to reuse one file and delete other.

Program icons stored in...?

Hello
I'm looking out for solution to change programs and folders icons then store my choice somewhere to make restore it easier after OS flash.
All known solutions allow to change icons manually. No automate process. Only one program allows to save theme (changed icons) but it cannot change folder icons. Newest beta allows this with folders but doesn't support saving the work.
In other words... dead end.
But maybe you can help me, and point me to files/registers or something, in which new icons are stored. Those data would be backed up.
Any help appreciated.
Best regards

You're talking about start menu items, right? And on what WM version are you on?
AFAIK, the folder icons are stored within the folders themselves:
\windows\start menu\programs
So to backup your start menu, you should just copy the files and save them somewhere else. By the way: You could have Sashimi automatically restore the start menu!
Thank you but I think you are wrong.
There are links in windows\start menu\programs' but not icons. Links are about 20-40 bytes large so cannot contain icons which are up to 20kB large each.
BTW:
I'm using WM6.5.1

Ah! That's the problem... I'm talking about WM 6.1!
On 6.5, the icons are actually stored via paths in the registry - check out this article for more info: http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/wi...using-custom-icons-in-windows-mobile-6-5.aspx
Where it says "Registry Keys" you should find the info you're looking for!
This article is very helpful.
Thank you.

[Q] Icon for java apps in the menu

I think I'm not the only one who use java apps on the phone. But accessing these apps is not user friendly. As we can see with Palringo, it is possible to start java apps by an icon instead of scrolling throuh all java apps. Can we somehow implement this for all (or for selected) java apps not just the IM? This would greatly increase the usability.
Any ideas?
BR,
Balázs
Good Question...
T-Mobile Branding uses also thier JAVA Midlet Navi in the menu and 1,2 other things...
Maybe step 1 would be. If we can replace Palringo with other Midlet.
As it is in Hidden Games folder...
At the moment I have 0 ideas how this work... as Icons are stored somewhere else.
And NOT loaded from JAVA folder...
I tried several things, but no success.
Best Regards
Well, IMO more importantly we should be able to put app shortcuts on the homescreen :\
Maybe other direction...
Apps start from JAVA menu.
Tumbling Dice is internal App.
Asphalt5 is prepared, but not activated...
Asphalt5 is for instance prepared but not activated in KJxLinkDisplayOrder.ini:
#LINK_INFO
LinkCount=2
#Link_1
link_name=Tumbling Dice
link_order=1
#Link_2
link_name=Asphalt5
link_order=2
I've added only Icon and tried to edit OapinGameList.ini...
In Firmware with Branding, there are enough examples with JAVA Midlets in menu. But still same problem, where are the Setting files?
Maybe we find for both an solution.
Best Regards
For JAVA Midlets on Main menu.
Part 1 seems to be:
KJxDispatch.ini
#Palringo
class=com.paxmodept.palringo.main.jme.JmeMain
vendor=Palringo
name=Palringo
Class we can find in *.jad
At the moment I try to replace Palringo with something else... frome T-Mobile.
Other test failed as no icon was created...
Best Regards
hey Guys! I'am from Poland and on polish forum we are trying to add java icons in menu too... My idea was to "tell" the Dolphin browser to "run" some java application. It is simple hack to do this: You have to add bookmark in Dolphin, call it, write the address to *.jar file (in my guide : file:///Mount/Mmc/Others/Opera/opera.jar) and it's IMPORTANT: activate third option, it's adding bookmark to main menu. But this idea is very imperfect - after clicking on main menu icon, you must install this midlet all the time This is because "hack" tells the browser to run NOT the application, but INSTALL file (*.jar). That's why You have to install Opera always after clicking on it. At this time we can't solve this otherwise. I give You link bo polish "bada-world" forum. At first post, there's my quick guide. Of course, you have to login, to see it. Probably You have to use Google Translator, or if someone of You knows Polish perfectly, it would be so nice
Code:
h ttp://tnij.org/bada_guide
(please remove the space after "h", I have no permissions to use outside links )
BTW, sorry for my english, but I hope You understand me Maybe with common powers, We will add java icons to menu!
Regards,
wxtester
@wxtester
re-installing opera and other apps will erase bookmarks and such things right?
If you want to use java on the desktop or the menu, it's not possible.
On the desktop you can just add flash files (and widgets).
On the menu, you can only add applis icons.
What you can do it's add the link of games and other on the main desktop to have a quick acces.
After you can add java applications.
You need to modify KJxDisplayOrder.ini file.
#DEFAULT_INFO
Count=1
#Midlet_1
name=DoodleJump
class=Doodle
fixed=1
order=1

no, it don't. You will still have access to your favourite sites and bookmarks, it won't be deleted. It You want to be sure, please reinstall from Your jar file, not mine!
lasentenza, on your screenshot I see that U have access to internal filesystem by Windows default filemanager (explorer.exe). Is it any plugin to see it without any program like sTune?
BTW, I don't understand Your tutorial Your idea is to add icon "Games and more" to desktop (next to widgets)? Why you talk about Java application "DoodleJump"? I don't understand Can you explain it simpler?
Thanks in advance

same problem...
I do not have acces to filesystem, the files you see is FFS dumped files.
Perhaps I don't understand.
I thought you wanted to add java apps on the desktop?
Doodlejump is to show that we can add java apps on game and more, in a custom firmware.

Is it similar to normal installing from java file?
So, finally there's no way to add java apps to Main Menu?
@ latenza..
I want link java app on the main desktop or on menu to have a quick acces...
I think it's not possible.
The java application are only available from game and more.
The only link you can add to the menu or the desktop are widkets, applications or flash (like calendar, dualclock, email etc)... Or maybe I don't find the way
