Major problem with new I-Mate ROM. Looking for ideas.

Hi everyone.
I just installed the new rom off of the i-mate ftp, installed it and have run across a major issue. When I try to install some of my basic programs like Agile Messenger or even Total Commander I get a message back saying: "The installation of <filename>.CAB was not successful." Nothing more then that. To get around this I tried installing the default_signed_disablesecurity.cab, but that will not install either. I'm stumped. Anyone here know what the problem is? Oh, i am installing these programs straight from .cab files, not through activesync.

I had a similar problem on previous upgrades when installing to SD card, when the same program was already present. Had to resolve by deleting from the card first.
Could be related.

Nope, just trying to install straight to the device. Don't have an SD card in anyway. I originally tried to install these files from my ext rom, then just from copying the cabs to 'my documents' and running them from there.
The only file I have in my ext rom that I added in that will install is the extrom_unlocker.cab.
*shrug*

try a hard reset (reset + fn1 + fn2) and reset before it start installing the extended rom customization. See if it solves the problem

Are you using SPB Pocket plus software??
If so, un-install it and then install the applications wich you need to install first and then install SPB Pocket Plus at the end.

Just conncet your device to the computer, and re-flash the rom to the device, don't mind if the computer does not recognize the device, just reflash.... I hope it will work.

You're not understanding me. There's nothing to "uninstall." I can't install anything so far. I have everything in .cab format so i could theoretically dump it into my extrom for automatic install. It seems like there's a new security/registry entry that's killing my ability to install unsigned cab files.

Hi everyone.
Sorry for the missunderstanding, I would suggest for you to reflash the ROM again to your device as the installed ROM might be corrupted.
I would suggest also that after reflashing the rom again to your device you should un-install the anti-virus program if you don't need it.

Can I install programs to ExtRom?

I've unlocked my ExtRom and deleted everything in it. I thought I'd be able to install programs to it to save on system memory, but no programs seem to work - the message I get is "program is not a valid Pocket PC application". Is there something I'm doing wrong, or will programs just not run from the ExtRom?

only .cab files execute in the pocket pc. i think you are trying to execute a .exe or a .msi ? by the way does chrisdk mean chris donkey kong?

Adam i dont think the pacman is worthy of use on the Universal. Pacman = Free sucky old game. I think you should try donkey kong on the extended ROM and let me know if it works . Chris would be happy if you used dk . Go ahead and try to install it.

oh always da old DONKEY KONG or should i say DK

Not sure if I agree... or maybe we're talking about different steps in the lifetime of the extended rom.
I've always wondered why I don't hear more people talking about installing files to the extended rom. But I have been doing so successfullly for quite a while. I've had no issues, I simply use it as another drive on the phone.
Here's a list of programs that I have installed there and are running successfully. I'm currently using 7.76Mb and have 2.17Mb free.
PHM RegEdit
Hitchhiker Wifi
Mobile Task Manager
PocketPuTTY
Skype
Total Commander
WiFiFoFum

Hmmm... i hardly think making 'fun' (ho ho ho) of what someone has on their rom is constructive - but hey i'll play along!
My point was that you CAN install to the extended rom if you unlock it. I have had several programs - most that dont like the SD card like Agile that need to boot up on start before the SD is ready - installed on the extended rom and they work fine.... oh and PacMan too! Oh and i believe they call PacMan a 'Classic', very similar to 'DK' i think!

If you have the legal version of TomTom on your SDcard then it would automatically install.

TomTom is not on the SDCard, only maps are on the card.
Download it from www.tomtom.com/support

I just Copied the cab file from the CDROM. explore the drive and look for the cab "ttn" Copy it and past to your card. Then just click on the cab on your deVice to reinstall. Afterward, youll need to connect the phone to Tom Tom Home Software to add your device to Your account.

How to install TomTom Navigator on storage card

Hi All,
Anyone know how to install Tomtom Navigator on Storage card?
Similar question applies to other CABs I have I would like to know for those which do not offer choice of destination installation, how to install either alter tha cab to give the choice or other solution?
Please can you help?
I asked similar question earlier but only answer I had was to use WINCE CAB Manager which I don't know how to change...
Thanks

Whenever I install Navigator it gives me the choice of storage card or device. Do you not get those choices? And it still installs a lot of files to the device even though I chose storage card, I think it's unavoidable.

Can you send me a link of TomTom Navigation software so I would discover out and tell you ?

The way I did it was to install TomTom onto the devices internal memory as normal then move the program files directory etc over. Point the shortcuts into the correct exe location and it all works perfectly fine. Even after flashing the device several times since I'm as yet to reinstall it as I don't need to!

hi,
i don't think that tt7 is stable and this why probably tomtom don't sell it !
i have known the same issue last week, and many other bugs like map folder destroyed and today it was impossible to planify trips from gps position.
i think that i will go back to tt6

So deinstall tomtom complettly when delete all tomtom folder from device and sd card ( but not the MAP).
Reset the device and install tomtom 7 again.
before start tt7 you copy the voice files in the folder where tt7 is installed
and then you can start tt7.
and see it would work fine.

in order
- flash the radio
- flash the ROM
- install tomtom (don't run yet)
- copy voice into root directory, called voices
- start tomtom
if fail, soft reset your pda, and then start tomtom without starting any other application and see

It isn't the radio that is the problem. The "out of memory" message comes up when there are remnants of a previous version or installation of Tomtom on the device. You need to uninstall the program and remove any trace of it from the registry etc.
Trust me.....TT6 and TT7 work extremely well in Trinity.

to report
on my p3600 running 1.56.70.11 radio + tt7 + chinese IME + other stuff to take up memory
everything works fine ! never had a problem... now radio fix was never fast with my device.. so that's about it

I know it works fine, but since i've changed from wm5 to the first wm6 he never runs anymore tomtom...
then, i've flashed 2 or 3 diferent roms 6.1 and radios... and diferent versions of tomtom with hard reset... and nothing.
now i've do that of the voices folders before run the 1st time and he stucks again...
i guess that with the hard reset no data from instalations remains... or not?
thank you all!!

Where are you installing Tomtom? On the device or on the Storage card?
If you are installing to the storage card then YES there will be left over files from the previous installation. The voices folder should be on the storage card as should your map folder, install the program onto the device.

SOLVED!!
the solution...
just erased a file inside the map folder called mapuserpatch.dat and Mapseting.cfg... anfer the «touch» of the map...
simple thing... now when i put the map version 725.1883 goes fine!
Thank YOU ALL for your replyes!!
