MS Voice Command - cab file??? - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hi All
I have Voice Command 1.6 (paid for of course) but can still not get my PC to connect to my orbit since my hard reset (although I don't have the original cable, I've been successfully using my mini usb to charge but can't sync).
This is the only app I use that doesn't have a cab. Is there any way of getting the cab out of the exe so that I can put it on my micro sd?
Cheers

Look in the program folder on your PC where you installed Voice Command (for example "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Voice Command"). You can generally find the cab files for the ppc versions in there.

Callmemoe - you are a complete star - I'm up and running again - can't live without this program whilst I'm in the car ! Thanks again

Voice Command 1.5 with the New ROM

Has anyone sucessfully installed MS Voice Command 1.5 with the New ROM (Jasjar ROM 1.30.68 WWE, Radio 1.09.00, extROM 1.30.153)? It installs but when I run it I get an error message and it disables itself. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sven
I have VC working fine with the new ROM - installed and worked just the same as before, so does the reg hack to enable operation via BT headset...........maybe if you try it again (re-install?) it will work
works fine on mine.
@sbatxda I had the same issue, VC would just close itself...what worked was a simple soft reset, I only figured this out after pulling out all my nose hair but hey it's never to late to learn Just do a soft reset an it should work as normal.
sorry, i assumed a soft reset was a foregone obvious solution and would be done automatically by anybody that has any knowledge of any microsoft system.
if in doubt, reset
youmeus: it worked ok on the new ROM then? I'll try to upgrade soon I guess then..

MS Voice Command 1.5
Thanks for the suggestions. I have made the register modification to get it to work with my BT headset and I have made multiple soft resets. I have some issue with the Voice Command install in that I have to first install the 1.0 version and then the 1.5 version; if I go directly to 1.5 the install tells me that there is no previous version and stops. This may create some issue, but this is also how I did it with the previous ROM version. I'll try a re-install again.
Regard,
Sven
@vijay555, yes I tried it again and it works ok now...but this new rom has a few issues that I am not comfortable with so I am going back to old rom once I get home later
@sbatxda, the better way to install VC is vis the cab file...just look for the cab file on your desktop eg C:\Program Files\activesyne\voice command\...etc and drag the cab to your PPC.
MS Voice Command 1.5 installation
Thanks youmeus,
Installing the .cab worked better.
I'm now having difficulties installing the .cab file with my ISP settings. It will not install on my device or storage card. This worked fine with the old ROM.
Ideas anyone?

please tell me the issue about this or send a link in a thread. VC 1.5 doesn't work with my BT headset.
DTR - try this - copied from another thread on here
MS Voice Command activation from BT headset
Now this one is sweet and makes the JASJAR the daddy for voice commands.
Install Voice Command to the default location.
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand
Modify the string marked "path" from the default \Windows\SDDialer.exe to \Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe
Now, when you press your BT headset connect button, MS Voice command will fire up and take commands through the headset. It's reponses will be played through the headset too.

@adesonic
oh, thatone I shure did try. But, having a Magician, I obviously had no success.
Maybe the fault is with the i-tech headset, which probably doesn't support connection.
I also had no luck with streaming audio to that headset, which some posts in other threads say is possible.
Thanx neverteless for your fast reply.

Why haven't MS upgraded this software to a proper WM5 version yet?
OR have they and I haven't been paying attention?
Question: Earlier I and others have had problems with showing of contacts displaying a blank page.. Are you guys able to show contacts using Voice Command properly?
@eman, you have to add one the files form the VGA hack in your windows folder for VC to display contacts...I can't remember the name of the file so do a search on the board!
Great to know there's a solution.
Installing VC now
with the previous ROM there was the issue where it didn't work in laptop mode with the lid closed. Does VC work in that mode now, or are you guys using it in portrait mode?
It would be great if it did.
the file needed is outres.96.dll
no VC doesnt work when the clam is closed.
even on the latest release.

Tom Tom NAvigator 5 with Mini S

Hi,
Anyone managed to install TOM TOM 5 on the Wizard using WM2005?
Beats the hell outta me!
Installs from SD OK, gets to select voice screen and locks.
Is there a known problem with TOM TOM 5 and WM2005?
I used to use the exact same TOM TOM on my XDA IIs with no probs.
Please share your infinitie wisdom good people of XDA-Developers!
Ta!
They have a free upgrade to support 2005: http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?Language=1&query=windows+mobile+2005&FID=3447
Was there any trick to installing it?
I have a copy that installs of an SD card. I copied the program folders to the Mini SD card in my 8125 but the install did not start when I inserted the card. I tried starting the start program manually from both the card and the phone's memory with no luck.
This is also from TOMTOM:
Below is the application that should be used in order to install Navigator 5 to your pocket pc. After downloading this file and saving it to your computer, please execute it. It is best to have your pocket pc connected through ActiveSync while proceeding with the installation. It is best to make sure there are no CDs in your CD drive at the time of downloading and installing this file to your pocket pc.
http://www.tomtom.com/updates/navupd521.exe
Once the installation is finished, please close out all windows that were opened and then place the "application and user manual" CD in the CD drive. The only need for the "application and user manual" disk is for the voices. When you place the “application and user manual” into the CD drive, the CD installer will execute. It is best to cancel the setup however leave the “application and user manual” in the CD drive. Once the setup is cancelled, please execute the 5.21 update again (the file should have been saved to your computer from the original download).
Due to the version of ActiveSync you may be using with your pocket pc (WM 5.0), the installer from the CD will not recognize your pocket pc being connected. This is the reason for using the 5.21 update as an interface. Generally when you download an update from the support section of the website, if there is a TomTom CD in the CD drive at the time of running the update, the update will act as an interface for the CD and allow you to install the information from the CD to your pocket pc.
After executing the 5.21 update again (please make sure the application and user manual CD is in your CD drive), this should allow you to proceed with the installation of the voice file. Please follow through the TomTom resource CD setup (i.e. choose a language, agree to license agreement). Once you are viewing the options menu, you want to choose "add/remove extra features". Then choose "add a voice prompt". Once you choose "add a voice prompt", choose the voice file you would like to hear when traveling. After the voice file has installed fully, please close out all windows and proceed with the installation of the map data. It is best to start with CD 1. If you choose a map file that isn't located on CD 1, the CD will prompt you which CD to switch too. After installing the map data, you should then be ready to activate your maps.
If you experience problems installing the map files due to a “TomTom Setup Application” error, please visit the link below.
www.tomtom.com/3701
The next step would be to activate your device. There are two different codes that are needed in order to activate your new maps. The first code is the product code (15 alpha-numeric code). This code can be found on a small plastic credit card found inside the box the upgrade software was shipped in. The next code you will need is the device code (10 alpha-numeric code). This can be found on the Pocket pc screen. By taking these two codes to www.ttcode.com and entering them in as requested, you will then be provided a third code which is called your activation code (15 alpha-numeric code). Please note this code. It can be used at a later date if needed. Once you have obtained your activation code, click "activate" on the Pocket pc screen. The device will offer a screen where the activation code can be typed into. Once the code has been typed into this screen, choose "done" located on the bottom of the screen. You device should now by fully functional.
Thanks
Got it working on my XDA Mini S. Had to add in some voices manually to get it to work and also added the full UK postal code manually.
Going to bed, but will post the file system breakdown in the next day or so.
Watch this space.

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.
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/TaskMgr/
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.

[SOLVED] WinMo 6.5.X acting like 6.1 - cannot enter in menus

Help, I did something wrong and I sort of cant use the phone anymore.
I installed a topbar. Unluckly I didn't read the info about it, and that it was made for Win 6.1.
I cannot access the menu, thus I cant uninstall the topbar or hard-reset my phone. There's a key combinatiou that's "Camera + Send + Power Button" that resets it. Problem resides there; My cellphone have a touch sensistive Send button, and this instruction is for a similar phone which possess a hard Send button. I can still, however, make calls and answer, send SMS's and read emails and activate bluetooth or wifi, but I can't start any app (I cant open the menu) or use the Mobile Device Center to do anything through USB (I've set it to connect directly as USB Mode and not to ask), I'll look for a Bluetooth dongle today to try to connect it through bluetooth.
I'm desperate. This phone is brand new but I already have made esthetical and hardware changes, so I've voided the warranty. Also that's a China phone, even though this particular model is able to update the ROM, I don't have the original ROM or knowledge to backup the actual one.
Any help is accepted. If there's any trick to go into "Add/Remove programs" without accessing the menus or to use some software hack to hard reset it thru Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, I'll be glad to know. If that's for any usage, I have Total Commander installed on this phone and I know how to edit the registry, but I can't start it.
Sorry for my bad english, I'm from Brazil
Thanks in advance and I'm really counting on you guys.
I'll be awaiting for an answer.
P.S.: I've been thinking - I don't know - about installing SPB Shell with some Auto Installer by the Mobile Device Center (over bluetooth) and let it start automatically, and by there, uninstall the culprit. Fiddling around, I've learnt how to trick the Mobile Device Center to make it install any CAB automatically, as if I've ran an auto-installer. My question is: would SPB Shell start automatically?
P.P.S.: Everything is working if I find another way to start it. Just the "start menu" died.
P.P.P.S.: No, I can't buy another phone. It's expensive here.
You can try MyMobiler, a PPC controller running on PC.
OR Try to remove it in Mobile Device Center if you can connect to it.
I don't have Mobile Device Center, using ActiveSync in win Xp but I believe you can remove on your Pc the partnership with your phone so next connection will start a new partnership where you can change the settings which prevent you from connecting Usb normally. Once you are connected, copy the file attached to your device, then take blackppc's advice, install MyMobiler http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=499344 and navigate to the file, execute and it will open settings where you'll find remove function.
I hope it helps
That's the problem, I can't connect it through USB to Mobile Device Center because I've set it to autostart as "pendrive" and not ask me about if I want it to start like this or in Mobile Device Center compatibility..
I'll buy a Bluetooth dongle in 5 minutes by now and I'll tell ya what happened
--
I.. er.. bought the dongle, but I cannot configure it. It cannot find any of my devices or enter the dongle's configuration area. It works well enough, though, on the store computer. I've tested thru 2 Windows 7 Computers and it gave me the same error.. gosh
As I said, I don't have Mobile Device Center but there must be a way to delete partnership with your device... Try this link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc722321(WS.10).aspx or google these keywords "delete partnership Mobile Device Center" and see how.
Alright, I've managed to get the bluetooth dongle working (a Bluetooth service was disabled). Now I need to connect the phone to the Mobile Device Center. Problem is that I had connected it to MDC, but I had hard-reseted then, and seems like MDC finds the phone as a "new device", thus cannot connect over bluetooth. Can I force it to connect or something? I'm thinking that may be my only shot.
P.S.: I can access a sort of device explorer (when I put the USB cable in and out, it pops up a message asking if I want to see the Memory Card images, and then it opens a image viewer. I can delete folders from there, if that's of any use)

"On the mobile device:
If you have never attached your device to the computer using a USB cable, do so. After Windows Mobile Device Center starts, disconnect the device.
In ActiveSync, click or tap Menu, then click or tap Connect via Bluetooth."
I cant reach it
I've got an GREAT idea: I can, still, acess the image viewer. From there, I can copy and move folders around. So, all that I have to do is to create a folder in my memory card called "Start", with one shortcut inside, leading to the "Add/Remove programs" or "Hard Reset" program and copy it to the Windows folder. Then I restart the phone and it'll fire up the selected app. JOB DONE.
I only need to know the name of the app/parameters for Add/Remove programs or Hard Reset. Basing on what Windows is, it might be some "xxxx.cpl -command".
I leave this job for you guys, now I feel that I can still save my phone!!
I'll try link it to Total Commander first, before anything
P.S.: I've found the following string to invoke the "Add/Remove programs" for Windows Mobile 6.1
"#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,23?\Windows\shell.dll,13"
Would it work for windows 6.5?
P.P.S.: Meh, I cant create fake shortcuts that leads to nowhere on the local computer. How can I do it?
What a relief, God truly knows. My method worked. I can invoke anything from the phone using a shortcut. I've used the following line for the shortcut:
"33#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,10"
It invoked the "Add/Remove programs"
Thanks for the help, I really felt you guys tried to help me
I never seen a case like mine, but who knows.
Here's what I did:
- Connected the USB Cable into the phone, and it started as a pendrive
- Created a folder inside the phone called "Start"
- Created a folder called DCIM and added some images in there
- Created a .lnk file using XXMKLINK (which makes links from anything I type)
- Copied the .lnk file to the "Start" folder
- Unplugged the USB. At this moment, a popup appeared on the screen "Do you want to view the images?" Press yes.
*If the above method doesn't work, you can try going into a SMS message, then click for "Insert a Picture". The same browser will open
- Go to the root of the SD Card, or anywhere the "Start" folder you've created is
- Press and hold it, select Copy
- Click on the left side button and select "Device"
- Go to Windows folder. It takes a while to open
- Copy your "Start" folder inside. Press Yes on any prompt
- Restart the phone.
Voilá! The app will be run on the next startup
I really hope to help someone with this trick, who knows more than it helped me.
The topic can be closed at any time.
Great news
