Here's a list of all the cabs that are installed on an MDA Pro. I am trying to find out what they do. Most of the ones I have filled in are thanks to 'Dingo' who has done this for the XDA Exec extended rom.
Signed_UNI_TMO_WiFi_SSID.sa.CAB
Adds a load of hotspot SSID's to 'Configure Wireless Networks' in settings
Signed_SSD_Shortcut_WWE.sa.CAB
Links for sim card manager and enroller
Signed_Service_Icon_Order.sa.CAB
Unsure - perhaps defines the preference order of networks when roaming? Could not see any changes after installing.
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB
Adds connection 'T-Mobile Internet' and 'T-Mobile Internet CS' to settings-->Connections. CS=Circuit Switched Data, ie 9600bps
Signed_Disable_GPRS_Autoattach.sa.CAB
I believe this causes that horrible 'are you sure' dialogue every time you try and go online.
Signed_LongDTMF.sa.CAB
Under settings, personal, phone, keypad, sets the keypad option to 'long tines'
Signed_UNI_TMO_UAProf.sa.CAB
See link at end (XDA Exec thread on same subject)
Signed_USIM.sa.CAB
Unknown. Did not notice any changes
UNI_BrowserPerformance.sa.CAB
I assume this speeds up browsing! Perhaps setting cache settings, I dont know.
Signed_Version.sa.CAB
Sets the version no for the extended from in the device information
Signed_UNI_TMO_Setting_111100.CAB
Pah, dunno!
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-03-04Aug05.CAB
Adds T-Mobile MMS Settings
CAB-DATEmail-Universal-TMOUK-22Ju105-DataBase.CAB
Localisation settings, I believe (makes clock 24hr)
CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB
It also sets up outlook to have an MMS account. If you want MMS, then you'll need this (pitty you get other ****e dragged along with it tho!)
It also sticks a link for the elatepushservice (what the heck is this?) in /windows/startup. This link will fail to load anything since the files are installed as a part of the cab: TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB just remove the shortcut!!
While you're at it, kill the sddeamon file in startup also. This is the thing that mythers you as to whether you want to view the pics on an SD card when you insert it.
Dont kill the pocket outlook shortcut tho - doing so will mean that pocket outlook has no MMS folders.
This also installs the links 'clearvue PDF' and 'EmailWiz' Again, the targets of these links are installed as part of TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB so trash the links if you are not interested in these features.
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
Registry changes and XML settings see XDA Exec thread, link @ end. Read elsewhere that this adds/enables the video call functionality.
TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB
Files For T-Mobile plugin & Other stuff 'elate push service' etc
TMO_UK_UIShortcut_Plugin_signed.CAB
Shortcut for t-mobile today screen plugin (so it appears in 'items' on today screen)
TMO_MMSNotifySound_0805_Signed.CAB
Sets the sound for a received MMS ;-)
TMO_UK_pIE_0807_Signed.CAB
I assumed that this set Pocket IE home page, but it does not appear to do a thing!
TMO_pIE_HardKey_0810_Signed.CAB
Makes the (t) button on the keyboard point at PIE with tmobile home page
TMO_Streaming_0729_Signed.CAB
I had assumed that this added the Streaming icon to programs, but it seems not!

I'll install the cabs manually when I get time and see what they do.
Note: I installed the imate rom (soft resetting before the imate ext rom got installed!) and then went through the Tmobile ext rom clicking each in turn in the install order from the config file, reporting the results above.
The t-mobile theme comes from the file \windows\t-mobile-tsk, this is loaded as the default theme. Its the first thing the t-mob ext rom does when it installs. I did not install this (dont have the files) I dont know whether some of the later cabs rely on this being present or not (as you'll see above, some of em did not appear to do anything...!)
If someone could post the file /Windows/T-Mobile.tsk I would be most grateful!
I also noticed that in the email app, no MMS account has appeared. But I do have the MMS server defined!
I'm gonna reset again and see whats in the imate ext rom!

TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB
Files For T-Mobile plugin & Other stuff 'elate push service' etc
push service is what is used by tmob for their instant email - blackberry service, i've checked into this and found that service not avail with mda pro yet, but when mda 3 came out not avail with that at start and now with further rom update does
TMO_UK_pIE_0807_Signed.CAB
Looking at the contents for this it appears to set up PIE favorites, also seems to be some sort of PIE plugin for t-zones added to the registry too. If you remove it from the Extended_ROM and hardreset are the shortcuts to t-zones etc. set up in PIE favorites? Don't get my MDA pro until next week so can't try myself.
VELETRON YOU are the BEST!
How bout examining 1.30.77_1.76_1.09.00?
I have had regular phones that were able to auto update their clock based on the network tower's time. I can't find a way to make this PDA phone do it.
I read in the wizards section about editing the "ShowTimeZonesPage" in the registry to show an extra tab in the phone settings page. I changed it accordingly and still no extra tab like they have, even after a soft reset.
Anyone have a way to do this?
i believe u are using a HTC wizard. If you go into the phone options and then go into the Time zone and check the option to synchronize. After that everytime the timezone changes it should synchronize .
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Satya
Sorry, I should have specified what I am using. I am using a Dopod P800W. I found the registry tweak in the Wizard section and thought I would give it a shot to see if it would work -- it doesn't. Even though I do have that entry in my registry and it was originally set to "0", when I set it to "1" nothing happens.
You can use a program called GPS2Blue to set the time by the GPS clocks, but it is not automatic.
i use sp time sync
http://www.spdialer.com/timesync/
i think you can set up auto sync but don't quote me on that!
word of yowarning, it uses a data connection to update the time.
hope that helps,

Hi all
I've just flashed to the latest ax3l ROM (as per sig), but am having trouble getting the Orange connection settings to appear correctly, when re-entering them manually.
I'm using the settings for Orange UK as per those posted by Findus, found half way down this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299023&page=5&highlight=orange+MMS+settings
Basically, I can't get the the the three separate Operator Connections to list separately. Either 2 or all of them will always come under the Modems tab after selecting "Manage existing connections" from the only "My Work Connection" listed on the initial page.
As a result I cannot specify the correct settings under the Proxy tab for each individual connection.
What I think I need to see is all 3 connections listed individually on the initial Connections page, is this correct?
I'm guessing these settings are written for WM5, and I'm missing something obvious here?
Any help hugely appreciated

try this cab
thanks for the quick reply to my long question, and a cab is certainly easier than tapping it all out
interestingly, the cab doesn't enter all the above connections (only the orange GPRS connection and the MMS server settings), but browsing by GPRS and at least sending MMS now both work fine. I'm guessing that it was ripped from the original Orange ROM?
thanks anyway
i'm on my ppc now, trying to upload two more cabs for you to try
all found by googling this site
sorry, i should have made that clearer - as far as I can see, everything I need is now working corrrectly, from the first cab you originally posted - thank you!
The only thing I've not checked properly yet is receiving MMS, and verifying the ones I sent have been received OK, which I'll get the chance to do later. I was only wondering out of interest why the connections didn't look correct as per the original post, and whether the rest of them were necessary, as all seems OK so far.
Thanks for the other two though, I'll keep them on the card in case things aren't working correctly. TBH, I hadn't thought to search for orange settings as cabs, as I'd been searching for the settings themselves, and didn't realise they were available in cabs.
Might be an idea for a sticky somewhere?
i think the last cab is in a sticky somewhere.
and you're right, a lot of the orange setting are minimal, for example, i don't think they have passwords in their settings etc
sorry, been away for last 2 weeks, and decided to not be fussed about fixing things for a change
it appears i now have no messaging at all, although GPRS works fine. i
Have been through the settings with Orange, and apparently all are OK (although i didn't mention flashed rom)... i also removed a username and password in the MMS settings which had appeared after one of the CABs, like you mention.
does anyone have or know of any screenshots with the relevant settings in the connections pages pictured for WM6 and orange?
this is odd, as i wouldn't have thought norma SMS could be affected by these settings - cannot currently send or receive
if it's just the sms settings (have you checked voicemail?)
check the following
open the 'phone program' go to menu\options\services\
tap 'Voice Mail and Text Messages' then tap 'get settings'
the text number should be
+447973100973
(voice mail
+447973100123)
if these settings are not missing/wrong or doesn't sort it out if it is wrong, then I'm sorry but I don't know the answer
thanks again for your help -I've checked all those as well now, and all seem correct too, although I'm unable to auto downwload the settings to re-confirm them [EDIT - phone is reading settings fdrom network correctly now, but messaging still not working] ...
I'll pull some screenshots of my own settings off, as It's probably easier for others to see errors in my settings, rather than me expect others post theirs
if nothing goes after that, then I suppose it's a ROM issue (maybe burnt inrroectly?) and a reflash and re-install is in order
back from the dead.
thought I'd add the only CAB that seeems to have worked for me, for anyone else searching

Hi All,
Searched high and low but can't find the answer and I'm a complete newb.
I have two small problems with my unlcoked AT&T HTC Tilt 2
1. After trying numerous radios 'my location' still does not update in the weather feature (currently using vers 4.48.25.20), just hangs then with USB I get 'connection error' message
2.Time stamps on SMS and MMS are way out of whack with when messages were actually sent or recieved.
Useing NRGZ8's ROM version 21.FEB.2010 WWE. I'm in AUST
Any help appreciated
Steve
1. Why are you getting a usb error when using weather?
2. Are your time zone and dst settings correct in settings-clocks and alarms?
If so then try this reg edit:
HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\
set the value for TrustTimeZoneField to 0 (decimal)
If that key isn't there, then go ahead and create it and soft reset.

Thanks fone_fanatic,
1.No idea why I'm getting a 'connection error' when the USB is connected and I try to update location or even if/how it's related. I've since tried another Radio (4.49.25.05) and found in another thread that I need to have wifi enabled even if not connected...that seems to work..for now.
2. All settings are correct, looked at reg edit and seems that I need to create Trust time zone bit as you suggest...beyond me at the moment so I'll read more on reg edits.
thanks for your help
oh so you had the device plugged in via USB and were trying to update weather/location while its plugged in.
Yeah, activesync/device center will kill your data connection when connected to the device unless you change the settings.
as for reg edits. They're quite easy, not too much harm can be done, unless your just browsing through the registry and changing/deleting values that you don't know what they do.
Don't let it intimidate you.
a popular free registy editor is PHM registy Editor or Total Commander (which is also a powerful file explorer)
Whichever reg editor you use, simply browse to the folder (folders in the registry are called keys)
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\"
then create a new "Dword Value" and name it "TrustTimeZoneField" and give it a value of 0
exit it out, Soft Reset (generally a good idea to soft reset after editing the registry) and you should be golden.
Also there is a cab floating around, just can't find it at the moment, that adds the value for you, search for Message Time stamp and it you might find it.
best of luck
regedit worked for me, also try searching for "text message driving me crazy" it has the cab file i believe.
So I successfully rooted and updated my phone through the method found in this post, but now I can't set any sort of APN definitions.
After I fill in all the configuration of my carrier, I press "Save" and... nothing. All I see is an empty screen with "APNs" written on top. Things I've tried thus far, with no success:
- Use the "Download settings for Internet and MMS" service (it tells me to go Sony Ericsson's site instead);
- Add an entry to the file "/system/etc/apns-conf.xml" (saves normally but nothing happens).
Does anybody know how to configure and activate APNs manually (i.e. without using the Settings menu)? Any other tip? I would be very grateful...
Progress... I've downloaded "APN Manager", and it allows me to see all the APNs I've added and supposedly weren't saved.
But now I don't know how to activate them... Using the "activate" function on the app doesn't work.
Help?
Problem half-solved.
If anybody cares, apparently it has to do with my old sim card and the way Android deals with APN settings - if the MCC and MNC numbers don't match between a profile and the sim card, that profile won't show up. Apparently my old sim card has some different values, because the newer ones work just fine...
