Just installed this. I used to use this headset to call people with voice commands on my old Nokia, is there a way to do this in wm6? Without launching an app of course, or it would hardly be handsfree.
I use this: ContactManger. Looks and works awesome and its all black!
Thanks for the quick response, how should this be installed?

Its a CAB. Have you ever installed a CAB file before? Just sync your device to your PC. Click Explore. Click on My Windows Based-Device, open the Storage Card folder (if ya have one) and just drag the CAB from your desktop to your folder. Then go into your device, open file explorer, locate the CAB and click on it. It'll ask ya where to install. Choose Device not Storage Card(though you could try it from the SC if ya want). That's it.
Ok I extracted the zip into my documents, and executed it. Came up with a list of contects. Tried speaking into the phone but nothing happens, this does support voice dialling and is always listening right?

Ok, correction. It's not a CAB. I gave you the entire folder which you need anyway. Unzip it to your desktop. Drag the entire folder into your device via activesync. Rin the exe from your device. It'll load everything for you. It can't "hear" you either. All it is, is a contacts app that scrolls.

Hello,
I'm trying to replace the sym.0409.txt in windows-folder. But this file is writeprotected, so I can't delete or replace it. when I try to paste the file to windows-dir I get a message "do you realy want to replace the file... blablabla". When I click "yes", windows creates a new file "copy of sym.0409.txt"
can anyone tell me how to replace write protected files in windows-directory?
i belief this discussion has nothing to do with WM6. perhaps it should be moved to a general discussion?

Depends how you are doing it....
Resco file explorer will allow you to "overwrite" file in the windows directory. If you install it you get 30days before you have to register it or remove it.
Hope that helps.
Some files can be overwritten by copying from within your desktop computer using Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Centre, instead of directly on the device. I think.txt would fit this criteria.
.dll's need something like Resco Explorer installing on your device (on trial) and they will overwrite system files.
the windows-dir is not accessible from desktop-pc... but the resco-file-explorer-solution works fine

yes the windows folder is available from the Desktop PC
ok... thats new for me... can you tell me how? when I go to my device in desktop explorer I see a harddrive "/" and under "/" I see all the rootdirectories from the device - except the windows-dir. typing in directly "//Windows" doesn't work too.
perhapgs it's a vista-only phenomenon...

From WMDC, File Management, Browse files ...
\ Then Windows is listed.
The reason you can't see it is because you haven't unticked Hide Protected Operating System Files in CP-Appearance-Folder Options-Show Hidden Files
Edit: Herr*: Calm down, Wash was right and tried to help you with what he had available at the time.
You can overwrite the file using freeware Pocket Total Commander. I have been able to overwrite said file with this app. Sym.txt allows for entering additional characters (with umlauts....) via hardware keyboard.
Oops - ignore this.
Ok here is how you do it, folder options, view, uncheck "hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Presto, you can see it now, at least in Vista.
Hello. I installed Sprint's release of WM6.1. I have the HTC Vogue and I want to use Vista Cube2. I have successfully edited the Registry to make non-working icons point to the proper executable but I don't know what to point to for Settings and Programs. Those two icons give the "file cannot be opened... components cannot be found" error. The registry shows that they point to "\windows\htcsettings.exe" and "\windows\htcprograms.exe". Neither of those files appear in my windows directory. Can someone PLEASE take a moment to tell me to which executables the icons should be pointing? Without Settings and Programs working, I will have to go back to Sprint's Cube.
I just did a quick search for htcsettings.exe with resco explorer. that file isn't found on my device. hmm
I need a real GURU.
Thanks Dannysportbike. Apparently the programs that call Settings and Programs have a different name on some phones. The files htcsettings.exe and htcprograms.exe are not on my phone either. Does anyone know the alternate names for these programs or how I might figure out the names?

The files can be downloaded from HERE and dropped in the windows directory. Soft reset and they should work fine.

DUH! I should have thought of that sooner. Thanks much! Unfortunately there is still a problem with htcPrograms.exe. It will only run once. When I click on it a second time (even from the File Explorer), nothing happens. If I reboot it will work one time again. Any ideas?
Don't know about settings, and it sounds like you want the default Programs launcher, it's in the "\Windows" directory as "folderview.exe"

I have been terminating Voice command throuhg Celetask everytime I start my htc-s620 with wm6.1. Reason I do it is to free up memory. Id love to remove this voice command permanetly so, I dont have to worry about terminating voice command everytime i start the phone.
I tried searching. With no luck.
Is there a way to completely shut off this feature to free my memory up?
Please let me know.
Dude, using active sync....go to \windows\start up folder
delete the voice shortcut.
ok, well i went into my windows folder and i didnt find anything that was related to voicecommand.. Couldn't find the "startup" folder you were referring to either. Just program files, My documents, application data, mapi, connmgr, docs and settings

when you hit explore in active sync, go to tools > folder options. from there hit the view tab. then in that big list you see, hit the button next to "show hidden files and folders". hit ok. then do what mikey said.
What if you have windows vista and you do not have active sync but rather windows mobile device center.
Ummmm....you do know how to explorer your phone?!?!
Go into the \Start Up folder and delete the shortcut.
hey guys. Been busy lately and forgot to get back on here and update you guys.
I did figure out how to delete the file off my dash. Thanks everybody!
Now I opened a new topic about my skyfire beta not installing. Anyone who can help, check it out!
You guys are the best for helping. Top notch help here!

Hi all
after some great advice from miami_son I have managed to sort out the mess that was my programs start up page.
sadly i also managed to delete the link file for the file explorer program
try as i might (and being very thick) i cant get it back.
can anyone point me in the direction (or tell me how to do it) to get the file link back
many thanks in advance
Use Total Commander to locate fexplore.exe in the \windows directory and select it with a single click. Click on file in lower left corner of Total Commander to bring up the menu. Click on >>>>>> and then click on create shortcut. Use the tree function to place the file in \windows\startmenu\programs.
Follow Kevin's instructions, works for any .exe file you want to create a shortcut for. But I would just skip creating one for that particular file. For one, Total Commander is a much better file explorer and can do more, and the OEM file explorer can cause you to delete things by accident if you aren't real careful.

I'm not sure, but I think that many programs use the file explorer to open files, rather than opening it themselves. Or at least this appears to be the case.

He didn't delete the program, just the shortcut for it. Once you have Total Commander installed you no longer need the stock shortcut. Like I said, TC is a much better file explorer.
You guys are just brilliant!!!!
Thanks so very much
was on the verge of hard resetting the device to start again!!
thanks again

The shortcuts (*.lnk files) are located in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs.
The icons for the programs are located (normally) in \Windows.
thanks so how do i delete them?

Any file browser application on the device. File Explorer is on every ROM. You could even do it from your PC if you rather.
Install Total Commander. Unzip file, connect device to PC, run the EXE file.
thanks miami son
am i correct in thinking ( from the advice you gave me about a year ago) that you cant actually delete the program but you can delete the icon file (png?)
thanks all

It sounds like you're just trying to remove some links from your start menu. Is that correct? If it is, then just navigate to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and delete the ones you don't want to appear in the Start Menu. In File Explorer, tap and hold on the one you want to delete until the menu pops up. Select delete and then tap yes. In Total Commander, do the exact same thing. I don't think I can explain that better without making a video of it.
well i would like to delete the progs but I was under the impression that they were installed on the rom and, as such, they cannot be deleted
(certainly when you delete the icon and then do a hard reset the icon re appears)
i will try to combine (my bad) memory and the instructions and see where i can go
thanks all

You can't uninstall apps that are cooked into the ROM whether you use stock or custom ROMs. Deleting the link files as I've instructed will prevent them from showing up in your start menu. If you hard reset, they will be right back where they started.
Thanks for all your help guys
i can start to sort out the phone now
thanks again
Hi,
I looked all over XDA and googled it, and found nothing.
Does anyone know how to call the default launching app of a file?
Basically, I want to download a file, DOC for example, and run it with the default launching program, Office.
Is it possible? if so, how?
Thanks,
Lidan.
hay
you cant associate a file type with another program
If you click on a doc file with IE9, Office will automatically open and show you the doc file. And you CANT save it on your mobile device

Hi,
I don't need to associate file type with another program.
All I need is to download a file (with WebClient or any other way) and launch it.
Now, I understand you can do it with IE. I don't want to do it this way.
I think I better mention that I'm developing an homebrew that must run on interop-unlocked device.
For example, file explorers do that, when you double click a DOC or PDF file the proper app will automatically launched.
Thank you for your answer.
Still looking for solution.
Lidan.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.
When you say passing the file to IE9 you mean the http link to the file or somehow the actual file?
If it's possible to pass the actual file somehow then I'm good
