hi there!
I have an Acer neoTouch with German WM 6.5 (Build 21840.5.0.60) and a lot of the custom Titanium Panels don't work.
With don't work I mean they don't show up in Titanium, although they do in CHome Editor 1.6
Some work, some don't show up on the today screen. TitaniumStarter for example shows up, Opera Panel or CPlayer don't.
Also, Titanizer doesn't work at all. It can change the left softkey, but whatever Panels I setup, Titanium will be empty afterwards.
is there anything I need to know? Maybe a problem with different paths? Can I edit something in the Registry to make them show up? maybe there are language specific paths in the registry that I haven't found yet (but then I don't know what to search for).
thanks a lot!
Bernhard
The easest way is to create a new folder \program files and in this folder copy the titanium progs from the folder \programme. Copy not move..
hm, thanks, but copying the CPlayer directory from \Program Files to \Programme, with a subsequent reset didn't do it yet...hm.
I copied \Program Files\JMLPanex\CPlayer to \Program Files\JMLPanex
and did the same for CPlayer.
both, CPlayer and JMLPanex directories are now identical in \Program Files and \Programme
reset, but still no CPlayer panel visible on titanium (only in CHome Editor)... *snieff*
Sorry, but you think wrong. You have a german rom - In this rom the titanium progs install in the folder \Programme. But in the reg or *.xml the progs search for the folder \program files. Understand ? And some of the progs have different of screen solution. I don`t know what solution your PPC have. VGA - XVGA - WVGA Think about it, and try.
yes I do understand you, and as said, I have for example the CPlayer folder in both, Programme and Program Files. I also have the JMLPanex folder in both (with identical content).
also, the registry keys look good. same goes for other plugins, except TitaniumStarter and ElecontWeather. hm.
so, I followed your advice and copied everything to both folders, but they still don't show up. no error msgs. whatsoever
Do you have install it ? I have tried the cplayer and it works on my xperia if you do all the things that in the tread from the developer wrote. You ask him also. Possible it`s a thing in panex.dat or in the reg. I don`t know. Learning by doing. Do you have all files installed in the tread. Also the resolution file ?
Are there any files with 0409 in them?
No it isn`t. I know what you mean. For German 0407. But I think he missed some progs too and don`t install it. By me - It works.

Hi Folks,
i found a trick to make an autoinstall from strorage card (like from extended Rom)!
autorun.exe looks for the file config.txt on the place is in registry stored in:
"HKLM\Comm"
"AutoRunCFG" = "\Speicherkarte\Autoinstall\config.txt"
so i changed the registry entry and now i am able to put config.txt and the files to install on every place i want.
on windows Mobile 2003 devices this works wonderful!
on problem i have now with windows mobile 5 devices:
when installing a question appears where to store files (device or storage card)!
can anybody help me to get rid of this question during automatic cab install??
i want install all cab files to device without any questions!!
pbelcl: apologies for my ignorance, but is this very different to a 2577 folder?
with a 2577 cab we could use this info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=225375#225375
and choose a default install folder I think for WM5.

Thanks for your quick answer!
i read the other tread and if i understood it right i have to remove the .dll file from my cabs?
i'll try this and tell you if it worked ....
I think the other way round.
I've never done it before, but you need to make a custom cab and .inf file, and specify the installation location in therere, and then the "choose a location" dialog doesn't come up. I'm not sure, I'll try this at home later.

Thanks, that would be interesting for me because i cant generate cab files because i hav no developer software for this.
i also have access to a cab file manager (at a customer) where i can edit the cab files and change them as i need it.
if it is possible to generate an "empty" cab file for me that would be nice ....
pbelcl: I never use the cabwizard either, I use cab manager. To make an empty cab, take any normal cab (download one of mine?) and just remove all the files from it. That's what I always do!

ok, this is also my way to get an empty cab file
there is one question interesting:
Sometimes there is a "CheckFile.exe" and a "CeSetup.dll" in the cab file.
Do i need them for any work during install this cabfile or can i delete them also?
I remove everything from my cabs, and then use cab manager and drag and drop stuff. So I've never used those files. I will have to read up on how to make a "normal", but I don't think they're necessary if you didn't put them in there!

Hi folks,
again my last problem with automatic install on WM5 devices:
when my automatism starts to install the cab files (from where ever) each time there comes a popup windows where to install the cabfile (storage card or device).
for my routines it is not important becaue most of my cab files only set some registry keys and dont install files on the device!
Does anybody know how i can get rid of this window and install the files to device WITHOUT question popup window??
I am having trouble copying the dll files from my Windows directory on my Dash. I have used Total Commander and Windows Explorer. It says access denied. I can copy some dll files such as the bronzeres.dll. But I cannot seem to get the others. I have tried to make them unhidden (Visible). I have rebooted my phone and pc, just in case there was something weird going on with either. I am stuck. The whole reason I am wanting these is to see how they operate. I have been able to alter my homescreen xml code to insert Fizz Weather into the iconbar, but would like to attempt at adding plugins such as Fizz Weather to the actual panels instead of just a panel with a link to start Fizz Weather. I would really appreciate any help with this. I am really at a stand still at this point.
Those files are XIP (execute in place) they arent real files, they are in a weird format optimised for running fast, although they display in explorer you cant copy them. However you can overwrite them with replacements and the original XIP versions are hidden from applications.
To retrieve these XIP dlls to your PC you need to dump the ROM and reconstruct the files. Its pretty easy there are loads of guides on the Wiki.
Follow this first:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
Then second to extract the files:

here you go heres cmhome.dll

I tried to dump this ROM but I'm not getting very far. The 1st link you gave is for the Hermes and does not appear to be the same as the excalibur. I cannot seem to dump the raw files needed to dump the rom. Any help??
hey guys, after miri's recent v19 rom release, i've got to the point where manually reinstalling stuff is getting more of a chore than a pleasure, so i've been playing around with sdconfig.txt and self-built .cab files...
however, there are some things i cant configure due to them being in the registry.
so far this is what ive done:
- used 'CeRegEditor' to capture the active registry (both stock rom, and fully configured the way i want it to be)
- compared the 2 files, and saved the output to another file
- copied this file (i've tried both .cereg, and .reg formats) to sd card, and attempted to run. when executed from my HD, the file format is unrecognised and will not import the registry values.
so, what have i missed? why wont a .cereg or .reg file 'install' on my HD?
the idea is to have this registry file in the sdconfig.txt (or a cab, and exec'd from sdconfig.txt), so on hard reset it is a completely 'hands-off' re-install.
Create a Cab file. You can create Cab files that only install registry settings. Take the '2_Way_Plus_InCall_Recording' cab file and build upon that maybe. Edit the '_Setup.xml' to include your registry settings and then you can install them just as you would install a Cab file.
How many registry setting do you want to change?
.reg file is 260 line file - 25kb.
while there seems to be a limit on what the registry is holding, it is configuring some of the more simplier and silly things...
- Device name
- Owner info
- Manila Weather
- power settings
- 'changescreen' app settings (app found on these forums)
- 'HD tweak' app settings (again, found on these forums)
at this point in time, it's more of a proof of concept, rather than finalized version. now i know how to get things working, i can fine tune the reg settings and provision my phone.
it seems 'ceregedit' does not correctly convert reg > XML (or reg > CAB).
however, i found another tool called 'SDConfigGen', which does correctly convert reg > XML. i've been able to use the XML in my sdconfig.txt, which is what i wanted!
while the above reg keys work, it's not an exact build of how i had my phone before...
there are some things i would like to automatically configure:
- pre-configured Wifi profiles (theres maybe 4 AP's i use)
- automatically set 'touchflo 3d' as the default theme.
- a complete hands-off install. (things like pre-setup the HTC auto-configure "sim card change")
- automatically accept a security certificate from our activesync server (i have activesync config in a .cab file, but it requires you to manually click 'yes' to the security cert install box)
im sure a google will help with a few points above!
Ok I'm not sure if you program at all or if this would really easy your pain much but you can download a trial version of Visual Studio 2008. It has a project option to build cab files for ppc devices. Might be worth a look if you have a lot of keys to do. Its not much better than doing them by hand though. I've included a screen shot of VS doing it so you can see. BTW its obviously been scrunched up.
Try this

I used this to do what your trying to do, it will not import .reg files on the trial version but theres an older version on piratebay that will:

SDConfig Builder
Hi,
try SDConfig Builder
I was messing with the registry riding in a car and accidentally bumped a key and wiped the name of a directory in my HKCU directory.
Here is my current list of root folders in HKCU:
Comm
ControlPanel
keyboard layout
MUI
Performance
Security
Software
Start
System
In the renamed folder I have:
Adobe
ageye
Diamond TF3D Config
Ghisler
HTC
Microsoft
Thanks in advance for helping me out. BTW, is there a list somewhere of the default registry structure for Win Mobile 6.1?
Comm
ControlPanel
keyboard layout
MUI
Performance
Security
Software
Start
System
Seems fairly complete in my eyes. The other things you wrote (Adobe, Microsoft, HTC etc.) sound like they belong into Software.
Open \windows and copy the user.hv to your desktop. Then open the file up with ceregeditor and see if you can find the error (the user.hv in rom has all the stock, pre-flash settings). It's possible you messed up something loaded post-flash (like, with a cab). Got no help for you there.
OK I think I must have tried to move it, but it didn't move everything because somethings are protected.
So I just copied everything back into Software and everything is right with the world.
Thanks for the help.
I tried installing Max manila on my TP2, but I must have used the wrong version. When the phone boots, it gets stuck at the "Touch here to launch HTC Sense" prompt.
I can get into the programs menu, but not into Settings. How can I uninstall this CAB if I can't get into Settings?
Tried looking at the original thread, but at 96 pages, the signal-to-noise ratio is just too low, and you can't find anything! Hence this new thread.
I really don't want to have to do a hard-reset!
if it is getting stuck at starting manilla you should still be able to click on the windows start button where you can get into the settings/home sections. From here untick sense and restart the device so it starts properly without starting sense. Remove manmanilla from remove programs option and then reinstall the working version.
Alternatively reflash your rom.

In WM6.5, there is no settings entry on the start menu. There must be a series of steps for deleting files and changing registry sessions that could be done manually if only one knew how.
There is a settings shortcut in WM 6.5, however in some roms the chefs have this shortcut pointing to the manila settings tab instead of WM settings dir. Obviously if manila won't load then this shortcut won't work for you anyway. Unfortunately I have no idea how to get that settings shortcut back on the start menu and working for you :/ You could use Total Commander to manually delete all of the files altered by MaxManila and then soft reset - your phone will then restore the rom's original files. There are a lot of files in MaxManila though, so it might take a while to hunt them all down. Use aiCabExplorer to open MaxManila's cab file and get the names of all the files to delete.

I tried renaming all the files and registry keys obviously associated with MaxManila, with no luck. I don't know how the files in the CAB get installed, but I searched for half a dozen of them and they were nowhere to be found.

Did you use Total Commander? File explorer isn't powerful enough to edit system files

TC for the registry, Resco for the files, but I have it set to show all types.
Well I've just checked - I can see and delete all of the MaxManila files in my windows dir except the homeservice.dll using TC. Don't know what else to suggest; there must be a way to get back the settings shortcut (?)
To get settings, change registry as shown:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo]
"HideSettings"=dword:00000000
