Hi folks,
I wish to upgrade the file Sim_Mgr.exe with a new version but when I try to overwrite it in windows AKU 3.2 directory, it is locked.
How can I do it?
Thanx
Try copying the file using Windows via Active Sync rather than directly on the device.
Worked for me

Heya, I backed up my contacts PIM File then after upgrading to WM6 Restored it (Copy&Paste). However my contact list will not open. Anyknow please help me fix this
Also anyone got a download link for MSN the standard one which normally comes on WM6 as it isnt on there.
Thanks
Nick
Depends which your previous version was
The structure of PIM.VOL changed from after WM5 AKU 3.0 (I think!), so if you previously used an AKU 3.0 ROM, you can't reuse the PIM.VOL from that version; you would have to resync the Contacts info using ActiveSync.
It may be that AKU 3.0 uses the current file structure (I can't remember!); if so, you may simply need to follow a few steps to paste your valid version.
PIM.VOL is a locked system file, so a paste operation may fail unless you use Resco Explorer to rename the existing one to PIM.OLD before pasting the older file to My Device. The built-in File Explorer won't allow system file renaming.
Once the paste has occurred, do a soft reset, and see if the older file has been picked up.

Heya, I copy and pasted by renaming first basicly what you said. Erm my pervious version was WM5. How would I resync it if WM6 Wont access it? Thanks Nick
If you can't recycle your old PIM.VOL for whatever reason, you will need to resync from your PC copy of Outlook.
If the data in Outlook is not up to date, the only answer is to flash back to WM5, reload the old PIM.VOL, do an ActiveSync sync to the PC, then repeat the WM6 flash, followed by a resync to the PC with Activesync.
Thanks I resync it and all is good Thanks Again Nick
ok i have a excalibur and i have wm6 on it and im trying install apps on it it is unlocked but i have no clue what a cab file is or how to install it or how to run it is there anyone that can help me??? [email protected] THANK YOU
Generally, you install the cab file to your PC desktop, hook up your phone to your PC via Activesync, and after the sync operation, click the "Explore" icon in Activesync to open the folder with the contents of your phone, drag the cab file icon from your desktop into the new folder you've opened and it's on your phone. Then click on that program file in "File Explorer" on your phone and it will install onto your phone.
Generally, one posts with a topic that is useful and gives a summary of the problem, not "HELP ME!!"
Thanks
ok i have done that and it still wont install some sights say i need netcf 2.0 and i tried installing it and found out i have netcf 3.5 or something like that?
I am new user of Window mobile and recently got Xperia. I have a question that how to install these cab files. I mean to say for some software i have exe/ cab files which i run and progrm are installed. But i downloaded alot of applications from this website and when i unzip them i can only found files with extension .001 / .002 / .003 , so how they are installed?
thanks Jade
For getting the original file you must rejoin them as they're parts of it. The .001, 002, 00x parts can be joined back with this (HJSplit 2.4)free software.
Joy!

Don't extract .cab files, but just copy them to your pda and execute (find them with explorer and tap) from there. Then it will ask you where to install, to the device or storage card.
BTW, have you seen/searched for this? It might help you .....
hello guys! do you have any idea on how to run .exe/.msi files using an sd card? i cant synchronize my ba for the reason that i still dont have a usb cable for it. i do update my ba using cab files only.
i have many useful utilities but some of them are in exe format. how will i be able to run these files on my sd card?
AFAIK msi files are exclusively for the pc, if a mobile app is provided as a msi file, it needs to be installed through activesync or wmdc.
exe files are executables for windows pcs and windows phones, but if a program comes in a single exe file, it looks like a pc setup as well. but you can try copying it to the sd card and simply click it in the file explorer. if you get an error message, it is a pc program.
what you can do, is install activesync or wmdc (depending on your desktop os) on your pc and install the apps you want, on your pc. normally that would install them, the next time you connect to your cradle/cable. since you don't have one, you should track down the cab files. on windows 7 they are located somewhere in c:\windows\windowsmobile\. i believe on xp it would be program files\active sync\
usually those installer routines extract a cab file in one of those paths and copy it to the device to be installed then.
also, if you don't have the possibility to sync, you should make regular backups of your pim data, best done with:
dotFred's PimBackup V2.8 for WM5 and above Download (Mirror)
thanks sir. that would probably help me installing those exe files.
i really have a hard time maintaining ang pimping my ba without the usb cable. still waiting for my cable to arrive here.
but then again, thank you for the information you have shared with me sir..
