I know these may sound like dumb questions, but with some questions we get on here, its necessary.
How are you trying to open the cab files?
Did you unzip or just place complete cab file on phone and click on it with file explorer?

Windows Media Player 10 MobileROM .nbf file found on HP site

Guys,
I searched but didn't see anything about WMP 10 ROM CAB being posted. I searched all combos I could think of so sorry if this is a repost.
HP released a ROM update for an HP rx3000 ipaq
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/HandheldiPAQ/us/download/22157.html
This file is a ROM update for the device. I downloaded the .exe and unzipped it, it had the .nbf update file but I'm not sure how to pull the individual cab files out of it, does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
If some one can get the password for the rom, I can try to extract the cab.
I would try the same ones used for the MDAIII rom. itsme was the one that came up with the passwords.
Well paul, I'm not going to go fishing for them. So if you want to post them or pm me with them great otherwise. :arrow: :twisted:
HP ROM is not locked!
Guys,
I just opened the HP nk.nbf file and it is not locked, so no password is needed.
Mikee4fun,
Since it is unlocked, can you pull out the cab for the media player 10?
Instructions and names of tools would work also, thanks for any and all help.
Paul.

I've been trying to download this file, but it always says file not found on the server...
Zero,
Maybe it's in one of the files in this ftp site - ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp29001-29500/

This is no good. I've downloaded the SP29295.exe and dumprom the nbf file. It confirms my suspicion that it is an update of the HP iPAQ rx3700 OS files (including WMP10 mobile) and not just individual CAB files.
Unless someone can tell me what are the exact files in the WMP10? I've tested using other versions of ROM, and it seems like I've invariably replace files that affects the core integrity of the OS.
However, I still harbour the fantasy that we might port this stuff over to XDA2.
If you can't get to the right URL link, search at google with the following search string:
"HP iPAQ rx3700" "mobile media companion" update

From this FTP site, download sp29416.exe, it's easier
Paul, the windows media 10 is not a cab install rather a part of the windows mobile 2003 se system. It would require someone to go find all the dll files, registry setting and core file install directory contents to make the whole thing work.

RE
Hope that somebody could come out with a cab file for separate installation.
:roll:
lets just hope someone can rip the entire se OS from another device and make it work on XDAII. The 2.02, 2.06 and 2.20.07CHS (translated) are getting their bit by bit...
any got wmp 10 from the rom then pls do share.
thanks
jeet
list the dll files u need and i'll help u to get them coz i have i-mate jam ROM and i'v extracted all rom filed includes all exe and dll files
all i need a list of needed files 8)
I think the lack of knowledge on the files pretaining to Windows Media Player 10 are ther reason why someone is going to have to have a copy of the ROM and go routing about for the files.
Loading rx3700 nbf file into ER2003Edit asks for a password. Is there any way to find that password?!

Visual Studio 2005
I've read somewhere that Visual Studio 2005 is capable of creating (and editing) .cab files for Mobile devices.
Can someone confirm this?
I'm download VS2k5 now to try this.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that MSCEInf is only able to read the .cab files not to create one...
You're right Mr. Anderson.
But I'm trying Visual Studio 2005 now, maybe I have more luck.
Are you creating your own .cab files? What software do you use?

Office Mobile for WM6

Hey Everybody, I downloaded WM6 and it worked like a charm. However, for Office Mobile, can you only edit documents that you already have saved or can you start a new document. I tried starting a new document, but it word, excell, and powerpoint take me to the file explorer page. Can anyone help me please?
help with what exactly?
you can't create a new doc, just edit.
the work around is to create blanks on your pc and save them on your phone. just edit the blank and save as.
if you use bittorrent you can download Office Mobile and install it. Worked for me, but not on WM5 when I reverted back.
@sam1964:
look at this thread at modaco forum (you must register to download files).
Newchurch
I downloaded modaco's app, it works great. How did you download office mobile? I see you said bit torrent, do I just put Office Mobile in and search?
How do you download the modaco app?
Can anyone give me a detailed way of how to download modaco's app please?
register at their site and then you can download it.

How to properly unzip the file and install CAB file for the Modaca app?
I tried unzipping the modaco file and that worked out perfectly. However, when I download the CAB file in the my documents folder in the phone. next, when I try to open the CAB file in the my documents folder, then the phone says cannot open the specified file because it has to be associated with a program that I have already downloaded. Can anyone give me a step by step way of dowloading it please?

*ding* *ding* I think we have a winner for most ignorant post of the day. Just kidding. Really though, you're in the wrong section for the forum for the mpx200, and the mpx200 is so damn old that the support for it has ended, which means that there's no way in hell wm6 is going to be put out on it. In fact, WM5 final was never released for the device.

Remapping IE button.

Does anyone know how to remap the IE button (T-zones) with the HTC rom? I've searched but I can only find info for the T-mobiel rom. The HTC rom doesn't seem to have the lnk files. Thanks.

Editing the file
Hello, I want to be able to do this but not sure how to edit the file as it has no file extension.
Also, I would like to launch opera mini but its a java midlet so unsure how to reference it directly like you would do a programme.
Any thoughts?
Thank you!
Totally stuck
Hi guys,
I am totally lost here. I kindda understand what the Wiki explains but to use it I get stuck. I am completely new to this whole business. bought a used blue angel (everything working on it) with a WM 2003 on it italian language. all I wanted was to swith from italian to english (or WWE as you guys call it). I do know that my ROm is 1.12.24 ITA Radio 1.03 and no value for extRom. that is what it showed when I tried to use one of the numerous updates available on XDA. first it showed me error 102 checksum error then country ID error. so I used the Ruu file and added the Checkceid_1 command as u suggested on wiki for blue angel. anyway I am stuck. now even the WM2003 italian is no longer available since I hard-reseted my BA. all I see now on the screen is windows mobile with some italian gibberish under it.
Serious help needed please.
Thank you

Hi, the zip file only includes a link and not the file itself.
Jonathan
Copy the link to the Windows directory on your phone. This will make the IE button bring up the Task Manager. If you want it to execute something else, edit the link. I used Total Commander for the editing.
Thank you sesinger

Diamond Theme for Vogue wm6.1

I recently got a Verizon HTC xv6900(vogue), which the more I use is a great phone. I have been looking for a Diamond theme that works with wm6.1. Everytime I download the zip file into my phone, I go to file explorer, like I do with all downloads and when I pull it up, the file only includes pics. I do not know what I'm doing wrong. I download the file through WinRAR and extract. Can somebody please help and explain what I'm doing wrong.
Thank you in advance.
I have run into similar problems with themes for the Hermes. The files that you extract have to go somewhere in the widows directory but I am not sure. They could also be themes for SPB Pocket Plus.
