permissions problem installing tom Comm manager8 - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Hi friends.. I downloaded the Tom Commmanger8 from the forums but have problems installing the cab file. When I install the cab file, it fails saying -
"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions. "
I am running the installation in normal working mode.. when the phone is started up.
Is there a separate admin mode in which I can install the cab file ??
Please help. My comm manager right now shows just one button.
Thanks.

maybe your existing comm manager is running when you try to install the new one? you can see running programs in settings/system/memory/running programs.
or you can soft reset your device and then try to install before you do anything else.

Killing Comm manager worked. It installed fine without any problems or complaints.. I now have the comm manager working fine.
But I wonder how the error it showed me and the actual problem are related..

when a program is running it "locks" some files. when you try to install a new version you try to overwrite those locked files. and you dont have the permission for this (that's why they are locked). you end the running program, and the lock is gone and you can delete/overwrite/change those files.
of course it would be possible to make a better error message like "this file is used by a running process (process_name). please end this process before trying again". but well, it's never done.
the message you got was actually very true and it allowed me to find the reason with my first guess

my solution
I had the same problem, when I tred to install it to device. But when I installe dot StorageCard, it was succesfull withou any problem. And it works,so...

The important point is here to install "8 Comm man" directly after sw-reset!!!
Then the installation works!! I tested it several times.

How to Cleanly Uninstall IIWPO

Hi There,
I'm having problem after doing an un-Install of the IIWPO program.
I've checked and ensured that ALL files and registry settings are removed.
But it keeps giving a pop-up whenever the device is turned on.
The error says:
"Notification Error - Cannot Execute \Windows\IIWPO_main.exe"
Worst of all, I thought this error will go away after a ROM flash.
But it didn't even after I re-flashed the ROM for an upgrade.
Please kindly advice on any work around.
Cheers
Fishy

Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot

I've got a problem. Trying to update my new rom's Cyberon Voice Speed Dial v1.1 to Version 1.2 and get the following error: "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions". I already did research on the net about changing registry and using unlocker, scpb.cab, but non of that seems to work!!!
Anybody else had this problem?
I too have just had this problem trying to install the bluetooth keyboard drivers on my Qtek 8500 Smartphone.
Anyone know what to do.
i've got same message
after hardreset and reinstalling all my software i've got the same problem.
after going to settings->system->Remove Programs i found nothing in the list of available software for uninstall . i supose the database was corrupted .
I got this error when I was trying to install a program that was already running in the background.
I had to close it with taskmanager first.

certificate error when running any unsigned apps...

Help!
I was messing around with the Ubuntu on Rhodium stuff that's posted in the Android sub-forum and I think something got corrupted/overwritten on my phone...
I extracted all the files on to a freshly formatted card and ran haret and everything worked file and I eventually got to the Ubuntu desktop. Then I did a soft reset to get back to WM and then the problems started.
I cannot run any unsigned apps whether they are installed on the storage card or internal memory. Whenever I try and run an app I get an error saying "The file blah cannot be opened either it is not signed with a trusted certificate...".
I cannot get back into Android or Ubuntu coz haret is unsigned too.
I cannot even install new apps! When I run the cab file, I get the usual "This program is from an unknown publisher..." and when I select yes for continue it immediately comes up with "Installation of blah was unsuccessful."
Time for a hard reset? I'd really prefer not to if anyone can suggest a better way of getting my phone back to how it was.

Tried installing this?
As I said in my original post, I cannot install any CABs that come from "Unknown Publishers" too and it seems that TP2-AppUnlock is one of those.
Thanks for trying,
R.
there is a setting somewhere for this. i saw it the other day while setting up a new rom.pretty sure
same problem
I have encountered the exact same issue...except that for me it occurred after booting back into WM after trying out the latest android build. Anyone have a solution?

I've already hard-reset my phone so I can't test it...
I too had the same problem but with the HTC hd2. I was trying out a 2.2 rom n the camera wasn't working so I turned off the phone, when I tried going to back android haret wouldn't run .if anybody has a fix to this please let me know.
Hi there,
Have you tried the "Security configuration Manager" mentioned in the thread linked to above?
I can't test it coz I haven't broken my phone again since the initial issue but for future reference I'd like to know if it cures the problem.
Hope this helps,
Richard
Yes i've tried security configuration manager but it still wouldn't work. Does doing the hard rest work? Thanks for the help
Yes, hard reset works.
I've used it on two occasions to fix this problem.
Regards,
Richard

i am still having the issue with certificates after runnig android and rebooting HD2
any help?
i am in mexico HTC HD2 unlocked if i make a hard reset i am going to loose unlocked feature right?

Installation of cab files throws errors

Hi. I just recently purchased an HTC Touch Pro2 from T-Mobile running WinMo 6.5. That being said, I have not been able to open any cab files on the device to install some software. Basically I'll transfer the cab to the device and attempt to open it. I get one of three messages depending on the app I guess. the most basic is "Installation was unsuccessful" to "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting...not digitally signed...trusted certificate" (this was from MobileFTPClient). Installing Opera Mini 5 gives a simple: "Installation of mini5wm.cab was unsuccessful".
Ok, so being a software developer for 10 years I've been looking into some registry values and can't seem to find what I need to get anything to install. If I download from the Windows Marketplace that's all good, but nothing else.
What do I need to do to be able to install cab flils directly? Honestly if I can't get this to work this phone is going back. I moved from an iPhone to this phone specifically so I can install apps and monkey around with the device, but so far I'm done before I started.
Thanks for any info you can give me.
its in one of your phone/device settings to let u download and install apps or cabs not digitally signed. thats all, i believe. just find it and check it off. or look for advanced config cab if u can find it and install that. it has an option in there also to let u download/install whatever..

The cab I have attached may help you...it's some SDK certificates that will allow installation of certain unsigned apps, but I don't know if this is what the ones you're running are requiring and missing. It won't harm anything to try this one, and you can easily uninstall it if it doesn't do the trick
Thanks guys. Sirphunkee - that cab actually installed, but I'm having the same problem. Another forum has suggested that I take the device back to T-Mobile, but it just seems like there's a setting that's not right in the OS. Demandarin - I've looked for various security permissions in the UI with no luck. I've mucked around with some Policy values in the registry per some threads on this forum, but still nothing.
I'll keep trying, and thanks.
So...weird; Opera Mini and Weather Bug (well known apps) wouldn't install, but an SMS notification disable cab installed (from the xda site) as did Evernote (evernote.com). I have no clue what the deal is, but it's getting beyond stupid that I can't install just any cab file.

Have you already installed .Net 3.5? It's a framework that many other programs use (and need) to install, and it's not on the TP2 by default...it's the only other think I could think of that would keep you from installing stuff. Cab is attached, if you don't have it already.
Got it. I installed the Device Security Manager PowerToy and was able to change the configuration there. Opera Mini 5 just installed.
Never would have thought the phone would come that locked down, but so far so good. Thanks for all of the ideas.

Well yeah what's weird is that I never had to use that to get any of those apps installed

Can't install any .cab, unsuccessful, need serious help!!

I've looked around but no one seems to ever give an answer.
I have an HTC Touch Pro 2 (SPRINT). Every, and I mean every, (even RegEdit cabs) fail to install. I get "Installation of ________ was unsuccessful."
I do NOT get the choice to install onto device--as soon as I select, it fails.
I soft-reset. Nothing.
I hard-reset. Nothing.
I installed form both SD and phone directories. Nothing.
I downloaded the cab again. Nothing.
I am in serious need of help. What's the use of having this phone if I can't do a blasted thing to tweak or personalize it?
Any help welcome. Again, I have listed my problem and what I've done to try and resolve it. I cannot access registry from the phone, and I've tried through activesync but I don't have permission to change the phone's registry.
So this is odd if it happens even after a hard reset. Are there any Exchange security policies being pushed to your phone that may prevent the adding of programs? Have you tried installing anything from the Marketplace? Are you sure that the cab file you are trying to install is for Windows Mobile and is compatiable with 6.5? Can you install a .exe program when connected to a PC?
