i want to install advanced configuration tool 3.3 but i have to install microsoft net framework. where can i find microsoft net framework cab? thanks.
http://www.google.com
seriously? its in the cabs, tweaks, & other stuff thread. its a direct link to the cab in the first or second post. search buddy... & read the stickys....
redundant thread
I find it extremly stupid that .net 3.5 wasn't in the Rhodium to start with... Hopefully the ATT model will have WM 6.5 and .net 3.5 so I don't have to waste ram with it. I've heard it can be installed to the SD card but too much uses it for that.

Hello All,
I've been looking over various board (and Google) but found no answer to this particular question. I hope you can help.
I have an employee who has just got himself an XDA orbit. This has come with MS .Net Compact Framework version 2 on it. We use some device software that has been written for version 1. Now; version 2 is supposed to be completely backward compatible but it turns out that is not the case.
What I would like to ask is:
It appears that you can have multiple versions of the .net compact framework installed yet the MS installer will not install because it detects the newer version. I am not familiar enough with .net on these devices to know any way around this. Is it possible to retrofit version 1 at all? You advice would be much appreciated.
I would really like to help this guy out.
I guess this is because Microsoft thought they would be compatible. I would try to get another installer for CF1. If there is nothing newer than the one you have, try editing the installer. The cab-Installations are defined by xml files and are quite easy to read and edit. It shouldn't be a problem to remove the check of the newer version.
Tell us if it worked :-D
Ok...
I have the newest installer for .net CF V1 SP3. That's the latest one I can find on the MS site - without going to Version 2. I've unpacked it and I am now sitting looking at a folder full of CAB files.
I guess one of the questions I need to ask is whether it is possible versions of >net CF on the Artemis? If it is, are there any caveats?
And how do I know which CAB file to use?
I should explain that I am new to field of XDA modding so I don't really know all that much about how the OS works. This is a little project that will help a friend out (he is techincally incompetent) and give me a bit of extra knowledge (right now I feel technically incompetent...).
I'd try it that way: run the installer with the ppc disconnected. Then look into the "program files\Microsoft Activesync" folder which cab you can find there. Maybe it's more than one depending on your CPU. Extract the cab and edit the xml file.
CF1 SP3 is built into the ROM of WM5 so installing it again is just wasting your precious storage memory. CF2 SP1 can be installed to your storage card. CF2 is backwards compatible and can run CF1 applications, but since all WM5 devices have CF1 built in when you run a CF1 app it actually runs under CF1. You can force it to run under CF2 by placing a config file in the applications directory.

@indiekiduk: without having read your links; are you sure about CF1 is installed on the device?
I tried the version checker of the hitchhiker website ( http://www.kasuei.com/hitchhiker/ ) and it says ".NET Compact Framework Unknown (2.0.5238.0)" seems to me like version 2.*.
I have not installed any other CF onto my orbit.
correct me if i'm wrong please.

This is simply not true. The Orbit comes with SP2 installed and has never had SP1 installed - not in the ROM on the XDA I've seen.
The Orbit comes pre-installed with CF2 - I have seen this with my own eyes. It is also NOT completely backward compatible. Even the CF .net team admit this - there are always caveats when microsoft say something is "backward compatible".
I don't want to force it to run under SP2 - because it IS running under SP2 already.
Can anyone tell me which CAB file I can use to install another version of .net CF? And if it's even possible to retrofit CF v1 on the Orbit?
You could try changing the value under HKLM\software\microsoft\.NETCompactframework - to try and fool said program to believe you have CF1, CF2 programs may not work but worth a shot.
The .NET Compact Framework team has spent the last year planning and developing the next version of the .NET Compact Framework 3.5, which aligns with the .NET Framework 3.5 shipping within Visual Studio 2008 code named “Orcas”. The team has focused its efforts in 4 areas including, addressing core problems of creating distributed mobile applications by enabling mobile devices to interoperate with Windows Communication Foundation services, Implementing device specific features from LINQ, continuing to implement highly requested features and refining NETCF’s ability to diagnose and solve reliability and supportability issues.
New Features Included:
• System.IO.Compression support, including support for HTTP compression.
• Support for a subset of Linq’s Standard Query Operators.
• SoundPlayer support using WaveOut allowing for multiple sounds to play at once.
• New API in Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms for easily distinguishing Smartphone and Pocket PC.
• Allow Nested FuncEval's.
• Enhanced logging for interop functionality with native code.
• Stack Trace Enhancements.
• GAC Improvements.
• Allow for StrongName keys greater than 1024 long.
• To improved logging of finalizer activities to enhance product supportability.
• Allow log files to be read at runtime.

If you can provide me with an FTP I will upload for everyone to install. In addition my Trinity WM5 has increased in speed by 40% and WM6 by about 20% once you uninstall .NET 2.0 and install 3.5.
share the love peaople!
Can you upload it to rapidshare?
Nice, maybe the cooks can integrate this with their ROMs instead of .NET CF 2.0.

so how do you uninstall 2.0 if it's built into your ROM?
Or just install 3.5 over it anyway?

You can install 3.5 as well if you have space, but otherwise you need to get a Basic Rom without 2.0 included. I have tried 2.0 and 3.5 together on the same device and it is still slow. If you remove 2.0 prior to 3.5 then you will get the increase in performance.

what happens if you don't even have 2.0 to begin with? Any increase in speed with 3.5? Then again, I try to avoid using any programs requiring .net CF 2.0 anyway
Well normally by default I have a .NET CF installed and most apps use it so hence upgrading gives you a speed increase. If you have never installed CF ever then I am unsure of what improvements you will get. Perhaps someone could test this?
Too bad CF 2.0 is built into most/all WM6 factory ROMs. Once we start getting some cooked ROMs for the Sprint Touch, hopefully 2.0 can be replaced with 3.5
Which cab is appropriate for WM2003
Hi Nighthawk 2050,

Nighthawk 2050,
Never mind, I found it!
Hi all!

Thanks in advance.

Yes it's real Da_G already pointed this out on the Raph ROM dev forum and it will be in my 3.1 ROM
i've had it in my v4 ROM for a while now
Just made this version into a Cab file it comes out at 9mb uncompressed cab file that's bad news for device owners like myself with limited space soon i will only be able to fit the os and net cf no room for apps
@wapvirus
Would you post the new NetCF 3.7 cab file that you created please?
Thanks

tried the same, didn`t work also for me. waiting for the working cab, would be very nice
Here: cab file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474406&page=597
Net CF 3.7
the cab works fine on my Tytn II, but I don't know the differences with the previous version 3.5
Any official statements already? Don't want to add any beta crap in my ROMs ...
What's new in this release?
Files, Modules?
In this OEM package there is only a single module (netcfd3m3_5.dll). In the original .NetCF 2.0 and the updated .NetCF 3.5 OEM packages there are six modules. My understanding is that it is better for memory if files are module'd (?) so can any of the other files be converted?

Cooked into my ROM and fine so far also.
HERE you will have the current .NET Frameworks including v3.7
Cook into ROM that have v3.5 before, up to now running smoothly.
After upgrading to windows mobile 6.5 on my touch pro 2, everything seems to be working but some apps that i install give an error saying that i need to upgrade my phones .NET compact framework. After downloading the latest .NET compact framework (3.5) It installs on my PC and then when it moves onto the phone installation, my phone says .NET compact framework installation was unsuccessful...
any help will be appreciated
There is a .net framework cab around here somewhere. I just cant find it right now. I will see if its on my phone somewhere. You can check out the link in the tip, tweaks thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524655&highlight=.net+framework
Are you installing the compact framework. I think that makes a difference. Not my forte, I am afraid. I was able to install it on several ROMs already. Just hunt around a little and you'll find it.
Try this cab.
I proceeded to install .NET 3.5 CF (NETCFSetupv35.msi) and when it got to the point of wanting to install to the device, I checked the .NET installation directory to find the following CABs:
NETCFv35.ppc.armv4.cab
NETCFv35.wce.armv4.cab
NETCFv35.wce.mipsii.cab
NETCFv35.wce.mipsiv.cab
NETCFv35.wce.sh4.cab
NETCFv35.wce.x86.cab
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
My question is, which is the .cab I should use to install .NET 3.5 to my Touch HD? And, is it safe for me to delete the rest from the list? I just want to keep the one .cab to install .NET 3.5 to my Touch HD, without having to go through the whole setup (NETCFSetupv35.msi) on my desktop every time.
