Bluetooth Voice Command problems on new builds -- SOLVED (for REAL now!)

I was playing around with XCSdM's Bluetooth 0.9f fix and found the issue that's causing it to not work on newer (17913) builds on WM6.
When I navigate to the directory where BTVCFull or BTVCBasic is located, and try to manually launch either of those programs, I get this message:
The file 'BTVCFull' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file.

I checked my security on the phone, and it is set to 'Security Off'. Next, I checked the file signature. They seem to NOT be signed at all. However, here's my problem. I can't sign the files myself as I'm too cheap to spring for Visual Studio 2005, and signtool is a big pita. So, Does someone want to sign them and throw the files up here? I think that should fix the problem IMHO.
But, I have identified the core problem at least--which is a step in the right direction.
** FOR THE REAL FIX ** See post's below with the new .cab and reg edit.

if im not mistaken there is a signing program in the new rom kitchen that was released today. its in the extras folder haven't played with it so im not sure how easy or well it works but it looks easy enough. pretty damn cool new kitchen also should check it out!

dunno if they will help

No.. It doesn't.. It's gotta be the drivers.. I'm supposed to be getting some new drivers soon; so, we'll see that helps.
I just wish it'd work correctly without any hacks to fix it..

I noticed the same thing when trying to launch BTVCBasic or Full. Changing the following key worked for me:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path="\Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVoiceCommand.exe"

How install XML files?

I can't install xml files
Please tell me? how i can do that

You cannot install xml files Think about it - its just a text inside...
edit: XML stands for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML

it's related to html as internet pages it's not a bin file which one can install

XML file is an input to another program and that would read the content and install whatever needs to be.

i have the same problem!!
The XML format files opend by document as defult, I cant install any XML format files.
Also in pocket PC the explorer is the defult to open XML files.

ad2master: Are you dumb, or just cannot read? Everything is explained above. I would just add, that XML is TXT, or INI file. It's just text prepared for a program to read.
When you got such a file from and what makes you think, that you can install it?

i think he's meaning is to load info in OMA xml foramat files that wince supports
like registery info ,network setting info,or file operation info etc.

We don't know it. Anyway for future reference: If you have problems with "XML file installation" provide us with example, we will be able to check what it contains.

Good news and Bad
BAD news = (jakubd) is a jack *EDITED*.
GOOD news = I have a fix.
WARNING = using this fix may make you kick yourself. I did.
PROBLEM = When you open the compressed file you see the content, some files and the important SETUP.XML Like years of Windows use has taught us, the SETUP file is the only one we need. It's like magic, we click and the preprogrammed file will do the rest. BUT all you get is TEXT. Thats crap.
CAUSE = You have WinRAR installed on your desktop PC, Don't you??
See WinRAR is telling your desktop computer that your .CAB file is a compressed .RAR file. It is but we will not get in to that. Confusion sucks.
FIX = You don't have to do step 1. but I recommend you do.
1. (on your desktop computer) go to START and to ALL PROGRAMS and open WinRAR. That was easy. Now click on OPTIONS and go down to click on SETTINGS (or just hit (CTRL + S) Click on tab INTEGRATION. On the left UNCHECK the BOX marked CAB. Say my name over and over while dancing on one foot.
2. Take the file you are installing (STILL COMPRESSED) and put it on your device. Use your FILE EXPLORER in your device to EXECUTE the still compressed .CAB (note: if you did not do step 1 the file will LOOK like a .RAR on your PC but a .CAB on your Phone/Device.)
SHORT ANSWER = do NOT uncompress the file on your Desktop PC. Just take the file just as it was when you downloaded it and put it on your Phone/Device. Use your Phone/Device file explorer to locate the file and execute it.
NOW = Kick your own *EDITED*

So going back to the very begining - you never ever install XMLs. Good explanation DJ_SirG - I would never guess that anybody at any occasion would try to decompress a CAB.
But as usual I'm asking myself - how many times people will as on forums "how to install xml file"... At least I have a place to point them to. Thanks!

DJ_SirG
Thank You very much for helping, problems solved now.

I am just asking for help, you can help others if you want, or just keep your self away with your huge experience.

ad2master: I'm doing my best to help, but if somebody asks you "how to do X" and the person receives answer "you don't because it makes no sense" and then another one asks the same thing multiple times in multiple places instead of thinking for a while you can get irritated. Also when people ask hundreds of times the same question (like where is reset button) that are clearly explained in Wiki or were answered many times here, you can also get irritated and more over - they get irritated when you point the to the wiki or suggest HR.
And of course sometimes you can miss the point (like here) because of lack of information from the other side. I would never guessed that smb could first decompress a CAB file to install it and you need to know this part to understand the whole story with "xml" installation problem. It's like a person calling Ford support and asking "my car doesn't go" just to find out, that it run out of gas - it's so obvious, that you need fuel, they you don;t even take it into account. Same with CAB - it's so dead obvious to me that you don't decompress it before installation, that I would never take it into account.
So if you want precise and effective answer, check the wiki, search, use google, if nothing comes out and you think your are the first in the world with this specific problem: ask. But because you think you are so special, please try to be specific: give all the details that might be needed. answer all the questions that might help other people solve your problem. There is always somebody that might be able/want to help you, but you also have to help him.

I think The miss communication is when we would click on the .cab file to download it once it showed up on our desktop, it was a .rar. Like the file name was changed. So if you download XDA.CAB once the file was on your desktop it said XDA.RAR. So you click on it to find your .CAB file just to find .XML and let the confusion began.... Thanks for your help guy's and I hope this helps you. If it do, reply back with a quick word so we know the post is getting used and not deleted...

I Must say to all you.."A-Holes" That Spitted on us for asking stupid questions like that you guys bashing us this guy actually knew what we were talking about and helped us why you guy stood back and did nothing Grats buddy you answered my question. and it just goes to show not everyone knows everything about computers.

The only reason I found this fix was because I ran out of hair to pull out.

We are not all rocket scientists
I too had no idea how to install a .cab file with a setup xml file. Once the one gentlemen said to install the file with the file explorer it literally took as long as it took to open that file. I am really disappointed that I had a question and in order to get it answered I have to go through the abuse of being called names and being cursed at. I get enough of that at home. If you are going to run a web site that is a computer forum, you can safely assume that most of us do not have your knowledge; otherwise, we would have the web site. Nonetheless, thank you for your web site. My program is now installed. Merry Christmas, Lindy Wise

THANKYOU thankyou thankyou

A sincere thank you...

You have no idea how much time I saved with guys like you in this forum...
Currently, I am out of pennies; as such , could not give you a donation for now...
( that's why I'm reviving my xdaIIs that runs wm2003 to run wm6.5 ... so that I can give it to my disappointed son as a present... ) cant afford a sonyPSP.
When I'm back on my feet, I shall not forget those who helped me...
Thank you... and may your hair grow back Fast & Furious ...

I have read all the previous messages but cannot get the answer im looking for. I have a folder which contains text files and a xml file. I do not see any setup file for me to click on.

but as all the previous posters, you probably didn't download a folder, but an archive and you extracted it to see the folder and its contents. that was the mistake. the .cab file appears like an archive on the pc, but is the extractable setup for the phone. try it again by extracting nothing and copy the file to the phone and start it there.

keyboard mapping error and Kavana's latest ROM

Okay, I dug through the 160+ pages of his thread (okay maybe the last 20) and I found no mention of the problem I'm having. I apologize if this is a double post but maybe this will help people who are having the same problem quickly find it.
I have a T-mobile Dash I recently updated to Kavana's latest rom, and when I go to type a text message (this is all I've checked so far) Instead of qwerty I get like q.arrty or something of the like. The keyboard mapping is off. Is there a fix for this around?

Self bumping - I found it after looking a little harder. Thanks to Rip Syntaxx for the having it in your sig.

I also needed this
Thank you for that zip file that should solve the problem with the keyboard. I also have a t-mobile dash and I tried flashing the kavana 6.1 but I had a problem with the keys being backwards but hopefully this fixes it. I would just like to know if anyone can help with the internet settings. I have the t-mobile internet plan but when I flash to kavana it's all erased and tells me to set up an ip or whatever but I do not know how to do any of that stuff and I just want the exact same t=mobile internet settings, can someone help me out?

Transfer it to your phone via ActiveSync. Put it in your phone's 'My Documents' folder. Using 'File Explorer' (on your phone), open and install the .cab. Reboot your phone.

Rip...LMAO you might as well place those instructions in your signature as well
or make a read me text in a a folder prior to the folder with the cab

ummm I am not sure, I know that a .cab file would solve everything.

yeah it really would. well thankz alot!! for your help in time if you find something out jz let me know

Just so you all know programs like these use your computer to install the program.
Make sure your phone is connected using a usb cord and it'll install it.

you might need to App Unlocl your phone. goto: mobile.surrealnetworks.com and click on applications for Dash. there is one or two programs that will unlock your phone to allow various programs to be installed. that might do the trick. someone correct me if im wrong.
...just my $.02

Newbie: Photo Contacts Pro 5 info
Hi All,
I am a newcomer to this forum and let me tell you that you guys do a great job with coming up with information and guidelines on Excalibur software so I have to give you applause for that. Does anybody have any info on this? I have the demo and it seems like it is a good application.
Thanks

I loathe photo contacts pro 5..... version 4.03 was and is the best one for the excalibur. my reasoning? after 4.03 the program doesn't run in the background. It shows up in task managers and is easly closed which defeats the purpose of having the program. It also takes up more memory and is even more laggy then version 5. if you can find a version 4.03 i highly recommend you try it.

Lookin' for some help with the ACR application!!!!

Hey guys,
I'm a newbie here, just joined last nite... I recently purchased a Touch Pro thru my local SPRINT Store. I was searchin' the web for an application that would allow me to record phone calls of my choice, and from what I can gather, ACR seems to be the way to go.....
So I read thru some posts here and decided to take it upon myself to give it a shot. Being that i'm rather ignorant to this sorta stuff, i'm a lil nervous about screwing something up.... I'm not an idiot, (well atleast not a complete one) but I am having some difficulties making this install go smoothly. I was able to download the 1.2.2. version to my phone. But the framework update doesn't quite seem to be going as smoothly......
I tried d/ling the 3.5 framework to my computer, then transfering it to my phone, but that didn't work.... Tried d/ling it on the phone itself, and it seems to have completely downloaded the file, but after that, nothing happened. I browsed thru the phone using file explorer to see if i could locate the NETCFSetupv35.msi file.....but cannot locate it any where.......
I'm sure this entire thread makes me look like a real dumbass, but i'm tryin my damndest to get this application to work, and it's frustrating the hell outta me cause i'm not that good at this stuff yet... Can someone point me in the right direction? I really appreciate the help, and atleast you all can have a good laugh at my ignornace.... you all make it look so easy, i'm very envious....
Is the 3.5 framework on the phone somewhere now since i downloaded the file? Do I just need to execute the file? or did it do that already and I'm just missing something??

I'm able to get the framework file on my phone. But for some reason, when ever I try to run it, it says there is no application associated with the file name. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ??? GIVE ME A HINT? ANYTHING? PLEASE???

plse check..
the following ( if you did ignore )
1. do you have windows mobile device centre, installed on you pc..?
if you have, connect phone with usb to pc.. sync... etc..,
if you have ..then.
install ...NETCFSetupv35.msi from pc... not phone ( it is not a .cab file, but .msi file ..so pc installation. ?
2,application will install from pc and tell you to check phone ,when required to do so ..install on device, not storage card of phone
thats it ...
good luck

Would also suggest you search in the Touch Pro forum as this is the HD forum

My sincere appologies. I did not realize I was posting in the wrong forum. I will direct my question to the proper place. Thank you.
