How to Unsign a dll file? - HTC Excalibur

I am trying to unsign a bronzeres.dll. How do you do that. I have Ricky's Rom tools with the unsigner.exe, but when I click on it on my pc, it opens the DOS window and closes it in like 1 second. I don't know how to work this thing. Please help, someone?!?

You got the right tool, you just need to use it the right way. I take it you've never used DOS applications ?
What you do is, you go to the start menu and go up to run. Type "cmd". Using the command "cd c:\xxxx" (where xxx is the name of the folder you want to go to), go to the folder the unsigner.exe tool is located in. It might be easier to move it to a simple folder on the c drive like "1" and then just type "cd c:\1".
After that, just type "unsigner bronzeres.dll" and it will give you a message saying it removed the certificate

IIRC, you can also drag the desired .dll onto the unsigner icon. Try it. ?

He's right, that will work also. You just don't really have to time to check the confirmation message whether the dll was unsigned or not, or if it was already unsigned...

I tried that, but it was unsuccessful. I did get it to work though. I had to get a file called unsigned.bat and drag my file into that folder and the unsigner to that folder, click on the bat and viola,it worked. I guess it must be a Vista thing. Oh yeah, by the way to Organic, I have used DOS, but man, it's been a while I must admit. I have almost forgotten how extremely simple of a program it really is. Kinda made me want to start using it again to do some simple programs, anways, thanks to all of you for the input. Without your help, I would have given up on this and said F**K it. Now my screen looks sharp as hell. I'll post my dll and screen pics and cpr files soon, in case anyone would like my mods that I have made. Holla!!

outerdepth, DOS is a not a program, it is an operating system. Of course now a days all you get is a modified version of MSDOS 5.0 in a virtual machine, but it is still not a program.

Certificate copy
Hello Folks,
How can i Copy Certificate from ORIGINAL MUI file to my own made UnSign MUI file?
How can i use ORIGINAL MUI file on WM ?
(Not by cooking new one, making a cab for it)
Thanks!

Automatic install (CAB,REG,TSK,Files) after HardReset

I have made s script which installs all files in my Install-Directory of my SD-Card. The script is based on nscriptm and invoked automatically after HardReset.
It installs silently all CAB-Files, Reg-Settings in REG-Files, a TSK-File.
It copys all wanted files automatically from the SD-Card to the PocketPC (e.g. for the Windows-Folder, etc).
It deletes wanted files from the Pocketpc.
It copies Shortcuts.
So a complete new Install lasts only a few minutes. Great for testing.
Now I am searching an unzip/unrar/uncompress/... - Tool which can be invoked from the command-line with additional parameters to uncompress all Install-Files on the SD-Card.
Anyone knows ?
Sounds like an excellent idea. Can you share your script? Sorry I do not know of a zip utility. All installs on cab files are already compressed though.
Doed Pocket WinRar will do the job?
I also would love to try it...
Very good idea
This sounds like a great idea.
No, Winrar is only with GUI. No Commandline. Have searched for days.
CAB-Files are not Compressed I think. Only the EXE-Files containig the CAB-Files for Install on PC are compressed.
Please HELP !
I have made an extended ROM which runs my script now automatically.
If you want it send me PM.
I have also been searching the net for a compresion tool that runs from the command line, but with no luck.

axbl,
would love a copy of your script. For everyone's benefit, can you attach it to this thread?
thanks in advance.

Hi axbl, would be happy to test your script, email is [email protected]
Hi axbl,
Could you please also post me a copy of your ROM / Script ?
Many Thanks,
Justin
[email protected]
Has anyone heard from axbl? While waiting in vain, I decided to give this a shot and see how far I go along scripting my installs. I find the nscriptm tool to be very capable but still I am stuck in a few areas which axbl seems to have excelled based on the initial post.
How can one trigger a cab file install and make it a silent install? I am using the Shellwait("") command to trigger the cab file installs one after the other but those that require input are causing an issue.
Next I have tried automating the response to those user input prompts (i.e YES / NO etc) but I am having trouble catching the window handle of the prompts and then using the Sendkey command.
Thanks in advance for all the help. Regards
I use the software call Autoconfig.exe which is included in O2 Asia ROM.
The Autoconfig.exe will read Autoconfig.txt file and execute according to the command line in the file.
The command line is exactly the same as Config.txt
[.......] <---- Section to be selected
CPY1:   <---- copy from
CPY2:   <---- copy to
EXEC:   <---- Execute Program
CAB:    <---- Install .cab file
RST: Reset <---- Soft Reset
I can do what I need about 80%. I say 80% is because after this process ended. I still need to put in name/pasword to all of those s/w or else it will still be trial version.
no more?
so any update in this topic??
....pls

hi, if you create an xml file or a cab (need winCE cab manager) you can add all the registry details you need to register your program...but you have to search your registry to find those details.
Yes, I can do it while ago.
The post I did was a year ago. At that time, I didn't know how to do it.
Thanks anyway.

Pls can u share the script with us it would be a great help for all of us.
thx in advance

You don't have to ask that guy. He'd never come back.
It's not that difficult to do. You need to know how to build CAB file by using WinCE CAB Manager. Then, put those REG, TSK, EXE, File, etc. into your built CAB file. By using (Autorun and Config.txt) or (Autoconfig.exe and Autoconfig.txt) or (Autorun and ExtROM via \2577 folder), You can install any CAB files into the system after Hard Reset.
ok
could you pls post the files to do it?
(Autorun and Config.txt) or (Autoconfig.exe and Autoconfig.txt)
if possible?

How to convert _setup.xml to a cab

Hi,
I have searched and searched for the answer to this but can someone please help.
have downloaded some add on's, the dir includes the _setup.xml file which i believe i have to change to a cab file using makecab.exe, i have done this and copied the cab and all the other files on to the device and tried to run the cab but always get, their has been an error, the cab can not be installed. Tried it with several programs, all give same error.
Only thing I wonderd is if the makecab is the same for 2005 as it is for mobile 2006 ??
or am i going about this totally the wrong way, any help MUCH MUCH appreciated.
i use makecab comed with my winxp ( the one used to create cab for your pc)
in a dos prompt and never had a problem..
maybe you could have wrong sintax inside your xml file..
anyway here is the command I use
makecab /D COMPRESS=OFF _setup.xml whatevername.cab
they all work on my hermes.
Bye
Thanks for that, i was not using the -d setting but still gives me same problem.
I am trying to install Schapps Operator settings program, do makecab /D compress=off _setup.xml setup.cab
copy this and all the other files in one directory to the storage card of the phone and run the setup.cab, goes to ask me wher ei want to sotre it, i select device then it says "Schaps operator setup cannot be installed', this is the same with another program i try to install.
Arrrrgggghhh !!!!
wait a moment.. what you mean when you say program?
with this command you can only "store" an XML file into a cab file.
This xml should be something simple like a provisioning xml file not
a program.
To create a cab file to install a program you need a different tool
(something like wince cab manager), more complete and powerful.
Ciao

No voice command after ROM update

I just updated my Tmobile dash to the RUU_Excalibur_HTC_WWE_Brightpoint_US_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship ROM and now the voice commands seems to have disapeared.
In the old TMOBILE phone, I was able to see the app and also click on my headset to activate. Now that setting seems to have disappeared and I get the message "no voice tag setup" (or something like that).
Can anyone help me get this working again? It was a great feature which allowed me to call on the fly using only my headset while leaving my phone in my bag.
Forgive me if I am posting anything in the wrong place or re-posting. I am a newbie to this and forum.

When you install the voice command app to the new wm6 HTC ROM, the way its described in this link, it works like a charm, the same way it does on the T-Mobile wm6 ROM. Just follow the instructions to a "T"....................!
THANKS!!! Worked perfectly..
FYI - you have to remove the shortcut from start folder otherwise you will get an error when trying to copy files into the prog folder.
Then paste the shortcut back in.

Yes, that is essentially step 2 in the instructions:

yea its weird.........
i restart computer and everything. still can't get the files in there.....
any way u can make me a new rar.......
I can't extract either, I'm using Universal Extractor. Whenever I extract, all I get is a readme type file.
I extracted the folder from the second link. When I opened that folder, there is another folder called Voice Command DASH. I opened that folder, and then copied all 34 files to the \Program Files\Voice Command folder. When i try to copy the files from the second link to the program files\Voice Command folder, I get the following message:
cannot copy enu_g2p: There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use.
Any ideas?

Funny thing is that in the \Windows\Startup folder, I don't see the .lnk. I have unchecked the box to hide extensions for known file type. Also, I just try and copy the shortcut from the Startup folder to my computer desktop and then soft-reset the phone. Everytime I soft reset the phone, it still places the shortcut in the \Windows\Startup folder.
I finally got it to work!!!
Instead of renaming the shortcut from the \Windows\Startup, I went and just copied it to desktop. However, after a few times, I followed the instructions and instead of renaming the shortcut again and adding .lnk to the end, I just dragged and dropped from my desktop to the \Windows\Startup folder.

Trouble getting t9 keyboard fix to work

i use activeync like everywhere says and put it in the windows folder or my documents and when I click on it it doesnt give me the option to instal anything. It just has a file that says setup and when you click on it it brings up a bunch of wordss and it has a bunch files with random numbers

are you by any chance extracting the file when you get it? if so, dont...the setup file you are talking about is an xml file...just leave everything in the cab file
take this file as it is (do not extract/unrar), and transfer the whole thing over to the phone and then run it.
still
I put it in as the rar/zipped file and clicked then it opened it and had a file that said start menu and windows I clicked on start menu and it said my tools clicked again and it said extras and then it had another one of those files with random words.So I went back to the windows file and it had the files etp excalibur 1-6 and then a file that said changer.I clicked on changer and it asked what language.After that it said for everything to take effect I need to reboot so I did that and nothing happend.Is there any way to but back on mobile 6.0 its already been like 5 hours of not being able to use the keyboard??

if you cant install a cab file then maybe you should switch back. its really this simple. copy the file (unmolested) to the phones \windows directory via activesync. then using resco explorer, browse to \windows on your phone and just click on the file..dont open, dont extract, dont pass go and dont collect 200$. it will install. then reboot and THATS IT. we have all done this 100000 times here so im not buying the fact that you are the one off case where it doesnt work.
look in the sticky's at the top of this forum for the wm6 rom

Changing the Start Button Icon

I've seen a lot of people asking how folks have changed the Windows logo to the HTC one and so on. I am one of those people!
There's a thread over in the Diamond Forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437307, that discusses altering the taskbar icons.
I've had a read of that but it doesn't appear to discuss the start button. I've currently got a cab installed that gave me coloured icons on the taskbar but also the 3d MS Office style start button. I like the icons but not that start button.
Is there anyway someone could provide an idiot/noob style guide for altering that icon. I'd love to have the Vista start button on my HD (attached image) but have no idea how to go about it aside from I think it has something to with .dll files.
Can anyone explain this? Anyone? I know there would be a lot of people grateful for it! I've Googled and used the search but just cannot seem to find anything!
I've attached a mock-up of my ideal; I've got the coloured icons, just the start button to go!
I think....
the explanation is to edit the shellres.192.dll file here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791169&postcount=3
using the process here?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791165&postcount=1
No?
EDIT: I am going to try myself this evening with your very nice icon...will let you know how it goes, if you don't beat me to it!
I believe you can do it with Wisbar.
Wisbar is not free.

you had a chance at it yet? did it work?
...........
This is the thread I used to alter the Windows logo to a HTC logo among other things in this thread. It's dead easy,
1) Unsign the file using Unsigner linked to in the thread further up (on page 2 of the Unsigner thread there's a .bat file that I found gave a better idea of whether it had worked or not).
2) Open the file in Reshacker and go to Icon on the left hand side and click it to expand it. Go to number 292, click it and it will expand to show 1033. Click 1033 and it should be the start menu icon. Right click on 1033 and select Replace Resource. Select Open File With New Icon and find your new (resized) icon. Double click it and it will show a preview of new and old. Click Replace in the bottom right corner.
3) Save the newly modified file.
4) Sign the modified file using Ssigner linked to in the thread above. CHECK THE TEXT FILE IT CREATES TO MAKE SURE IT SIGNED OK. Don't forget this bit as it will mean a hard reset if you do (as I learnt).
5) If you've not installed SDKCert.cab some time in the past. download it from here, copy it to the phone and install it.
6) Copy the file to the Windows directory on the phone using Resco Explorer or Total Commander.
7) Reboot the phone.
how did you copy shellres.192.dll? it says "Acces denied" even with resco. No chance to renaming also
To get the file in the first place you need a program called ROM Extractor on the phone to get the file from ROM. There are also different varients of the ROM for different locales. There's a description in the link above.
thanks for your efforts but seems a little complicated TotalCommander did the trick, resco seems to have some security check problems
anyway, unsigner doesn't work so i'm stuck

Try the .bat file in the second page of the Unsigner thread. Copy Unsigner, the .bat file and the file you want to unlock to the same directory and double click the .bat file. Also, because the file is from ROM make sure it's not marked as Read Only when you get it to your PC before unsigning it. If it's from ROM they're usually Read Only for a start.

I will try tomorrow. I have been meaning to give this s shot for a while now, and the icon you posted is what I have been looking for.
the bat only automize the process... It doesn't work anyway as it still use UnSigner
Do you have the cab to change the other icons? I had a quick look on the diamond thread but couldn't find the exact ones you have! Thanks.

True, but when I tried Unsigner on it's own it didn't give any feedback as to what it was doing (or if it did I missed it) so I changed 150+ icons only to find it hadn't been unsigned and therefore couldn't be resigned. At least with the batch file I can check it's been properly unsigned before making changes.
Does it give you any error messages when you try Unsigner?

that's the point: no errors from unsigner, but resourcehacker can't open my file (not valid bla bla bla)
In which case I'd say the file hasn't copied across properly from the phone. Reshacker should be able to open the file and allow editing even if it's still signed. I'd try ROM Extractor to copy the file from ROM to elsewhere on the phone and then copy that across to the PC.

uhm seems reasonable
but I don't want to extract all my whole rom for a stupid dll... I extracted with total commander, isn't supposed to work this way?
Nope, certain ROM files can't be copied using normal file copy programs. I've found that they try and copy, then say the "File already exists, do you wish to replace?" and then whatever you select you're left with a 0k file with nothing in it. The ROM extractor doesn't copy the whole ROM. When you launch it you get a list of all the ROM files. Double click the one you want to extract, give it a location (\ usually for the root directory of the phone) and a name and click Extract.
Ok, I will try. But how to replace when modified? If I can't even read it, how will I replace it?
