Auto Installer Tool

Auto Installer V1.0
Synopsis:
I've written a small utility with a whole mix of features, primarily designed to enable easy setup of your favourite cabs, shortcuts, icons etc...
It's written in Mortscript, but you don't need to worry about that... everything is installed from a plain text INI file:
Features:
-Specify which cab files to install automatically (silently, or with user interaction)
-Specify which registry entries to create / modify
-Specify Hi-Res custom icons for your applications and tools (WM6.5 Only)
-Specify which shortcuts to create in the Start/Program Files menu
-Specify the Start/Program Files menu structure (groups/folders etc)
-Specify TF3D shortcuts for Manila 2 and 2.5
-Specify TF3D weather locations for Manila 2 and 2.5
-Specify HTC Task Manager 'x' button options
-Specify Windows Screen Font Size
-Choose to execute every item in your setup config, or just execute specific sections.
Coming Soon Features:
-Specify files you'd like to back up
-Specify tasks to kill before install
-Specify tasks to start after install
Installation Instructions:
-Download zip file here: AutoInstaller V1.0
-Extract the zip file to a folder of your choice on your device (preferably on the SD Card so that it's not lost after a hard reset!
-Read the usage guidelines
-That's it
Usage Guidelines
Usage Guidelines:
The application contains 3 files:
1) AutoInstaller.exe (this is the main executable file)
2) AutoInstaller.mscr (this is the source code for the script. Do not modify this file unless you're a script programmer)
3) AutoInstaller.ini (this the file that you edit to configure)
All three files MUST reside together in the same folder (any folder)
AutoInstaller.ini and how to:
Cab File Installation
You can install multiple cab files using the [Cab Install] section of the ini file.
The format of each entry in the section must be as follows:
<Unique Friendly Name>=<Cab filename>,<Silent install>
<Unique Friendly Name> MUST be unique, but is just any friendly string identifying the cab to be installed.
<Cab filename> is the full path to the cab file to install
<Silent install> determines if the installation should be silent (TRUE) or interactive (FALSE). Note: Most cab files will install silently, but some will still force user interaction. This is not a problem, but be aware that some files do this.
Also be aware, that if a cab file forces a reboot of the device without asking, then this cab is not suitable for installation via this script, since a reboot will terminate the script.
Example:
[Cab Install]
Facebook =\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\Facebook\Facebook_v1.0.0.7p.cab,TRUE
Google Maps=\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\Google Maps\GoogleMaps.cab,TRUE
My Mail Settings=\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\My Mail Settings\MyMailSettings.cab,TRUE
SPB Wireless Monitor=\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\SPB Wireless Monitor\SpbWirelessMonitor3.arm.cab,TRUE
Total Commander=\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\Total Commander\tcmdpocketarm.cab,TRUE
WunderRadio=\Storage Card\Setup\Install Cabs\WunderRadio\wunderradio_ppc.cab,TRUE

I strongly suspect it is... although I'm guessing a lot smaller and simpler...
I wasn't aware of Sashimi until you mentioned it, and I'm checking it out, although it looks pretty comprehensive, it also looks quite daunting.... meaning you may as well have written the installation in Mortscript in the first place by the time it's all configured!
However, I suspect there's a couple of nice little things in my script (like the custom icons, and TF3D weather etc that folks might find useful... I wrote it for myself, but thought I'd share!
have a little problem
when i run the AutoInstall.exe this error comes
There is no application associated with "AutoInstaller". Run the application first, then open this file from within the application
abzza,
You need MortScript installed.
I did tried. For some of my application which required manual interaction,
runwait doesn't do the proper thing as it continue on next cab installtion when some
manual dialog popped up.

[App] RGUber v1.21a, RGUOrder v1.4

Purpose:
This purpose of this VBScript is to process and organize data in RGU/REG files to remove duplicates, identify faulty entries, and move entries to ascending alphabetical order (the same way it is displayed in a registry editor).
Requirements:
Windows Scripting Host (included in most versions of windows)
rgucomp.exe and cereg400.dll located somewhere in your path (same folder as the script probably won't work if the script is run from another folder)
.reg and .rgu files are expected to be UTF-16LE with BOM
Usage:
Drag a .rgu, .reg, or .hv onto RGUber.vbs OR run "wscript.exe RGUber.vbs example.rgu"
Details:
When an rgu|reg file is specified, RGUber will:
1) create backup of input file
2) rename input file to boot.rgu
3) use rgucomp to convert it to *.hv
4) use rgucomp to convert new .hv to original rgu path\name
5) Reorder all keys in ascending alphabetical order and all values for each key in ascending alphabetical order with default value first
When an hv file is specified, RGUber will:
1) use rgucomp to convert it to *.rgu
2) Reorder all keys in ascending alphabetical order and all values for each key in ascending alphabetical order with default value first
Options
Open RGUber.vbs in your favorite text editor. All options are set at the beginning with (hopefully) meaningful descriptions.
Code:
'//Path to rgucomp (leave this as default if rgucomp.exe is located in your system path)
Const RGUCOMP = "rgucomp.exe"
'//Path to notepad, only needed if %OPENAFTER% is true
Const NOTEPAD = "notepad.exe"
'//The following options can be set to True/False or 0/1
'//Organize registry entries in ascending alphabetical order
Const REORDER = True
'//Open in %NOTEPAD% after conversion is done
Const OPENAFTER = False
'//Save any errors from rgu -> hv conversion
Const LOGERRORS = True
'//Save a backup copy of %INPUTRGU% as "%INPUTRGU%_Backup.rgu"
Const BACKUPRGU = True
Other info
If target file already exists, RGUber will ask if you want to overwrite.
Text files (the MS way) typically contain CRLF for next line. Output from rgucomp.exe contains many CRCRLF. RGUber removes the extra CR.
I have very few comments in the code. If requested, I will upload another copy with as many detailed comments as I can manage.
I tried to code this as efficiently as VBScript can possibly be. I kept getting errors when trying to run 'rgucomp.exe -b -nologo' so instead of running it directly, RGUber creates a bat file, executes it, then deletes it.
On my AMD Phenom 9600 with Vista64 and 3 SATA in Raid5, RGUber completes rgu->hv->rgu of 2084 lines in <3s
RGUber always saves output from rgu->hv conversion but deletes the file if there were no errors.
RGUber crashes on files with no reg entries (e.g. empty app.reg in an EXT package that does not add any registry entries)
Changelog:
v1.21a
Values are now sorted in alphabetical order for each key
v1.2
Replaced Organize function with one from RGUOrder
Lost ability to reorder values for each key (To be readded in next version)
v1.1
Fixed a bug with removing hashdata from output (RGUber would mix data from two keys under one)
Changed sorting algorith with a much faster one
v1.02
Added option to remove RegistryUpdate key from rgucomp output
Fixed a typo where RGUber was not removing the system attribute from input rgu files
v1.01
Fixed typo where RGUber was waiting for backup file instead of log file
Change 'Done' msgbox to one that shows beginning time and ending time
v1.0
Initial Release
RGUOrder v1.4
This script will only reorder the contents of an rgu without processing with RGUComp, thereby keeping comments and delete key entries. RGUComp/cereg400.dll are not needed to use this app.
Changelog:
v1.4
Fixed a bug where if the original rgu did not end with a new line then the last entry after being sorted would be lost.
Fixed two bugs where only the first 25 tabs and first 25 spaces would be removed before sorting (This did not affect data integrity or performance, but the checksum would be different each time you run the output back through RGUOrder until all the original tabs/spaces were removed)
Added code to prevent multiple entries of the same key from being reordered
Fixed other miscellaneous bugs/oddities introduced with v1.3
v1.3
Added code to add a delete key for each subkey of a deleted key so that when reordered, the key deletion isn't broken
v1.2
Fixed a bug where the last key processed was being concatenated to another with no CRLF producing an invalid rgu file
I'm not sure if this relates to your app but I have a small question:
If a dumped a rom (raw, not kitchen type) and removed several apps/programs but did not clean the registry (very tedious), will this help me clean it up (remove dead paths, etc)?
And if so, how will it know just by dragging the .hv file? I mean how will your app know if a registry entry does not have the app/program included in the rom anymore?
Please forgive me if my question does not relate to your app
There is no way for my app to know, it isnt that smart
It would take an extensive app/database to know which keys are related to which apps.
Thanks for this post
updated to v1.1
v1.02 had a bug in the code which removed hash data from output which made it mix data from the key before it with the key after it
If I ever get around to updating again, I will use hvedit instead of rgucomp
I get an error.
Script: D:\RGUber.vbs
Line: 136
Char: 2
Error: File not found

It worked for me with no problem (file attached)
Please tell me the location of RGUber.vbs and of 51329f91-0017-4364-bcff-e032c5d45b01.rgu
Great application bro!!
Only limitation is that I have to put reg400.dll and rgucomp in C:\windows

yeah, I tried to get around that but I didn't find anything feasible with vbscript :-/
Actually, they don't have to go in C:\windows
I reinstall windows regularly so I keep as many apps portable as I can. I have a bin folder on another partition that I add to the system path variable after a new install for stuff like this.

can you elaborate this a bit more. Because I too would like a similar arranfements...
My C:\ partition has Vista64
My F:\ partition has all my documents, downloads, music, movies, etc and a folder F:\bin\
F:\bin contains >100 downloaded command line programs and vbs scripts that I have written including
RGUber.vbs
lame.exe
rgucomp.exe
cereg400.dll
FixVTS.exe
faad.exe
nuerecmod.exe
Tag.exe
find Advanced System Properties (I can't remember how, it's different for XP/Vista/7) go to the Advanced tab and hit the Environment Variables button
Under system variables, scroll down to 'Path', double click it. This defines your 'system path'. It contains a list of folders separated by semicolon ";". At the end, add a semicolon and the path to the folder you want to add (e.g. ;F:\bin) after that, hit ok. XP may need to reboot to reflect the change but I'm not sure. Vista and 7 are affected immediately.
With this setup, you can open a command prompt in any folder on your computer and type "RGUber.vbs xyz.rgu" and it would work as if all the files are in that folder.
Thanks a lot bro!!!
I am grateful...
I'd really like to use this, but unfortunately I get this error regardless of the app.reg I drag onto the script:

Hmmm... this line asks the system for what is in the %temp% variable and attempts to change the working directory to the result.
Open RGUber.vbs in notepad and go to line 232
Modify
Code:
WSH.CurrentDirectory = WSH.Environment("SYSTEM")("temp")
to
Code:
WSH.CurrentDirectory = "C:\RGUber\"
then try again
Works great after your fix, selyb. Thank you for this useful app and your many helpful contributions to the Kaiser forums.

Grats on getting a Rhodium. Found a question after using it for a while. This is just one example of such behavior, but why does:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\TaskManager\ExclusiveList\System]
"CMBandSwitching.exe"=dword:0
get turned into:
Code:
"CMBandSwitching.exe"=dword:0
How do I make it regard CURRENT_USER keys?

I had this problem with an earlier version. If you are using v1.1 then please attach the original rgu/reg. I have tried and I can't seem to reproduce it since I fixed it already.
Please, replace rgucomp with hvedit . I really need your help because rgucomp doesn't work for me . Thanks in advance .

why doesn't rgucomp work? I would be surprised to learn that hvedit will work when rgucomp won't.

Adding context-menu extensions in File Explorer

I am trying to add an extension to the context menu of the File Explorer. I know how to do this in desktop windows, but it doesn't work in Windows Mobile. This is what it looks like for destktop windows:
Code:
RegistryKey key = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey("*");
RegistryKey shellKey = key.CreateSubKey("Shell");
RegistryKey emacsKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("emacs");
emacsKey.SetValue(null, "Edit with emacs");
RegistryKey commandKey = emacsKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "c:\\emacs\\bin\\emacs.exe %1");
I tried the same thing on WM6.5.3, only I switched the call to emacs for "pword.exe %1". No additional items showed up in my context menu. I decided to ditch the "*" and try to add a context menu for a specific file type first. My next attempt looked like this:
Code:
RegistryKey extensionKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey(".csv");
extensionKey.SetValue(null, "csvfile");
RegistryKey csvfileKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey("csvfile");
RegistryKey shellKey = csvfileKey.CreateSubKey("Shell");
RegistryKey openKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("Open");
RegistryKey commandKey = editKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "pword.exe %1");
RegistryKey editKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("EditFile");
editKey.SetValue(null, "Edit This File");
RegistryKey commandKey = editKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "pword.exe %1");
Which creates an (abbreviated) registry tree like this:
Code:
[-] HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
[-] .csv = csvfile
[-] csvfile
[-] Shell
[-] Open
[-] Command = "pword.exe %1"
[-] EditFile = "Edit This File"
[-] Command = "pword.exe %1"
My "Edit This File" option still does not show up in the context menu when I right click on a .csv file, but if I left click on it, it opens up in Pocket Word, as expected.
There must be some way to do this. I just don't know why it can't match the way it works in desktop windows. I guess I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to add context-menu items in File Explorer through the registry?
2. If so, can I extend it to files of all types? ( "*" )
I am using C# right now, but if there is an easier solution in C/C++ I'm open to it. Thanks in advance for any tips.
I'm trying the same thing and I also have no solution for this.
But i found a code sample from Microsoft, it's called CTXMenu and is included in the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 DTK.
It demonstrates how to implement a context menu extension handler.
The application extends the File Explorer context menu that appears when you tap and hold a file.
Unfortunately it's coded in C++ and I'm not so familiar with C++, so I can't help you with your problem.
But if this code sample is useful for you, I would appreciate it if you could tell me how you managed it to get this work.
I had similar problem these days. After about 2 days of googleing and editing and trying (with my minimal c++ knowledge) I succeded to create menu item which started my application with filename parameter. Of course I used the CTXMenu example and some other examples too.
As far as I know (and tried) there is not other way than extension to file manager.
Good thing is you can create menu item for all filles ("*").

Russian Daylight Saving Time changes

Hi guys.
First, some sidenotes:
1) I'm not sure where this post belongs. I hope moderator will move it accordingly
2) I'm not able to post urls, so please replace hxxp:// in those links below with http//. I will fix that as soon as the forum lets me. ​
Russia has changed its DST rules this year. All time zones are shifted +1 hour and DST is now disabled. To reflect those changes under WM we need to edit registry a little.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\TimeZones\ is a key that allows to override timezone info. So, you need to create a subkey, which name will be the time zone index needed to change. Time zone indexes could be looked up here: hxxp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms912053.aspx
Here is an example for Moscow time zone (MSK). It's index is 145
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\TimeZones\[B]145[/B]]
"Display"="GMT+4 Moscow"
"Dlt"="Russian Daylight Time"
"Std"="Russian Standard Time"
"TZI"=hex:\
10,ff,ff,ff,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
Where do you obtain this? There are two ways:
1) The easy one. If you already installed MS updates on your PC, its registry already contains all that we need. Go under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\ and select appropriate key. (for Moscow it's under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Russian Standard Time). Export it and import to the device with your favorite registry editor (I use TotalCommander).
2) The hard one. Write it by yourself. OK...
All the fields are self-explanatory except TZI. Let's take a closer look on that. According to MSDN hxxp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms725481%28v=vs.85%29.aspx, it's contains REG_TZI_FORMAT structure:
Code:
typedef struct _REG_TZI_FORMAT
{
LONG Bias;
LONG StandardBias;
LONG DaylightBias;
SYSTEMTIME StandardDate;
SYSTEMTIME DaylightDate;
} REG_TZI_FORMAT;
Bias is the offset in minutes, so that UTC = local time + bias
Since Moscow is UTC+4, the bias should be -4 hrs = -240 mins. -240 is 0xFFFFFF10 in hex, hence first 4 bytes of TZI are 10,ff,ff,ff
StandardBias is the bias during standard time (when DST don't apply): UTC = local time + bias + standard bias. So, it should be zero.
DaylightBias is the bias during daylight time: UTC = local time + bias + daylight bias. Should be zero for current Russian DST rules
Those two SYSTEMTIME fields contain dates when DST applies. They should be zero in our case. You can refer to the above link for details, if curious.
So, all you need to do is to just fill 4 first bytes with proper values.
OK, after registry is changed, you should be immediately able to see new time zone in clock settings. If that is not the case, try rebooting your device.
Now, maybe someone will create a cab for all Russian timezones... that would be nice.
---
Now Manila aka HTC Sense is the whole different story. It has its own city database with UTC offsets. The file in question is \Windows\2330fc3c_manila. This is actually an SQLite database file, so it can be edited easily. I use SQLite Database Browser (hxxp://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net), which is free. You can also use sqlite native console client.
So, you need to copy that file to the PC, find your city and change its timezone field. The file is in ROM, so you need a proper file manager to do that (TotalCommander is OK). E.g. for Moscow you should change -180 (UTC+3) to -240 (UTC+4).
Before writing the file back, Manila should be disabled. This can be done under Today settings (second tab, uncheck 'HTC Sense'). Replace the file and then enable Manila again.
I'll attach the patched file for HTC Rhodium aka TouchPro2. I'm not sure if it will suit other device or even other ROM on same device. Mine is T-Mobile v1.91.531.4
Thanks for the tip. I tried to this for my HD2 (WM6.5.3) and found out there is no TimeZones branch in the registry. And there is no \Windows\2330fc3c_manila file. There is a lot other *_manila files in Windows folder though. How did you find out which one contained timezone data?

[Tutorial] Add custom fonts to office mobile ( word , PowerPoint , Excel )

Hello. This is my first post. I'll teach you how to add custom fonts to Microsoft office mobile.
No change in font is needed. You can use your fonts without even changing their names!!
What you need:
-You need to have access to system file ( FullFS access) via connecting to PC or CMD SSH.
- A registry editor ( Interop tools by @gus33000, custom pfd, or vcreg )

1. Copy your fonts to this folder:
Phone\Windows\Fonts
You can make a new folder in it if you want to have your custom fonts in a separate folder.
2. Navigate to here in your registry editor: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
3. Make a new key like this:
Name: myfont (TrueType)
You can use any name instead of [I[myfont[/I]
Don't forget to the (TrueType) including parentheses even if it's not a true type font
4. Key Value:
If you pasted your font in root of the fonts folder, write this:
myfont.ttf
If you pasted it in a folder, then write this:
myfolder\myfont.ttf
Important: Pay attention to extensions. Your font might be ttf, otf, etc. So change the .ttf where needed.
5. Done! No restart needed. ( Although you may need to close office apps and open them again.) Now open word, PowerPoint, or Excel to test your new fonts.
I hope you enjoy that!
