I put 6.1(same with the 6.5) on and i am geting errors from old files(pics,vids,everithing).i get there is no application associated with *filename* run the application first....
I get the same error if i install a app from a cab file and try to run it.
Didnt find anything with the search.any ideas.
Either the roms you tried don't have the proper software/codecs installed, or the files have gotten corrupted.
I'm guessing you flashed the at&t stripped rom between flashing cooked roms?
That's all I can think of.
yes i flashed at&t between roms.
You could try crc's full rom or my rom, I know the video and pictures work in them.
all the old files seem to be .denc endings now(*.doc.menc etc)
it seems i hade the encryption option enabled on my old rom, so all the files on my sd are encrypted.
Not too sure you will be able to recover from that, I never tried encryption.
well you can go back to wm 6.1 or 6 im not sure, those builds has the encrypted app for SD and decrypt them again and please dont use it again, or your apps will eat more ram than normal... and gives you some low ram or other issues.

So, some of you have this error, some dont. So lets try and figure it out. Heres what we know.
The problem affects ALL Artemis WM6 ROMS.
Remember, the issue doesnt appear when just using it normally. Its only under certain circumstances. Heres how you re-create the problem.
Run Tomtom, this causes the error90% of the time.
Create a new word document and try to save anywhere.
Heres my setup and what ive tried to fix it.
Device: MDA Compact III
SD Card: 1gb
Ive tried font cache size, system cache, removing the memory card.
Please dont post "I dont get the error" if you havnt tried running tomtom or saving a word document.
Thanks
To add to the problem re-creation, I was trying to copy a directory with around 15 files in it from the internal memory to the storage card, the message just kept popping up for all the duration of the copy process, I stoppped clicking ok eventually. I looked at the free program mempry available then and it was pretty good at around 22mb.
Device: Orbit XDA
SD Card: 1gb
I too have noticed that looking at the free storage space seems to fix it for tomtom (but not word). There is something else wrong with Excel in that the "Save As" is in the wrong place, infact where it is isnt actually save as.
You're right, I haven't noticed this before with excel. I can't remember if it was like this before, was it? It won't be easy figuring this little memory issue out. I hope someone has a trick up their sleeves.
I have the WM6 emulator running on my pc and the excel thing isnt there. Comparing the registry settings on the emulator with my device. I would love to hear if anyone does actually have Word working without issue.
BREAKTHROUGH!
OK. I installed the original Orbit rom and... IT WORKS!!!! So the question is what did bepe and the guys do when they de-branded it? The orbit rom has an Ext-Rom with a load of branded stuff PLUS! some patches. I bet one of these patches fixes the issue!
These custom roms have NO Ext-Rom at all, hence the increased storage space. however in the process of removing the ext rom they have managed to cause these memory errors.
So guys, any chance of a rom close to the Orbit rom but with the English language and Ext rom left in tack?
Great work mate, it is the removal/merging of the extended rom that's causing the problem then. Maybe it's not even a patch in the extended rom, maybe it's the way the extended rom was merged that's causing it. This surely deserves more looking into.
Great breakthrough
Word FIX!
Thanks to pvdhelm for the tip on this one. Attached is a patch to fix the memory issue with word (and only word). To fix it for other apps you need to view the memory in the control panel and click on "Storage Card". The word fix is pernament but the other memory issue it only until you reset your phone.
Absolutely brilliant, so it looks like missing registry entries!! We need to find out what was in the original extended rom then to find out if we're missing anything else. Looks like only me and you here, you should post this fix in the main threads mate.
Cheers and well done.
I have a copy of the rom, tried isntalling it all but to no avail. It looks like on boot up the system thinks it has a different ammount of ram due to the ext rom being merged. By displaying the ammount of storage it realises it has a different ammount and fixes it. Until the next reboot. So if anyone knows what changes when you view the storage that may be fixing it I would love to know.
Or if somone can make a rom with the ext rom still in place.
EDIT: Heres one just for the MDA Compact III without WiFi users. It applys the Word memory errror fix but also fixes the Comm Manager issue and does so just for the MDA as it removes WiFi from the list.
Maybe this is a clue for you all. I have never had these errors, ands I use Tomtom daily and have tested word for you again with no fault.
The difference? Well I upgraded to WM6.0 the original way before USPL patch and flashed the OS only. I'm assuming you with problems used the ROM installer method. Am I right with my assumption? If so that should narrow down the culprit.
I used Bepes original WM6 WWE OS only upgrade, therefore the Ext ROM on my device is still the old T-Mobile WM5 one and was simply not allowed to run. So it can't be right to assume there is something missing from an EXT ROM patch.
It's most certainly the extended rom being merged then, there's nothing else to it.
gajet, can you give me the exact steps you took. I went from the T-Mobile rom to Black and blue then to the others. I uses USPL first though.
Can you give me a quick set of steps you took i.e Original T-Mobile rom, then ran USPL, then updated to Bepes.
Also, if you used bepe's can you also tell me which rom update util you used? as the one ive tried has errors at the end.
Thanks

VERY interesting reading!
If you move this thread, please drop a link on here for us, thanks. The first one to crack this problem will be worshipped from afar I am sure!!
I think it could be an order of upgrade issue, heres the latest.
1. Downgraded to T-Mobile WM5 rom
2. Ran USPL
3. Upgraded to Bepe WM6 using the EXE version
The word issue is no longer there but the out of memory in Tomtom is. Also no ext rom.
It would be good to know from others and gajet what steps they took and which files they uses to do it. Especially as gajet still has his extended rom.
I've tried:
official t-mobile wm5 to german wm6 to bepe uspl &
official t-mobile wm5 to bepe uspl
Both times I have had the error with tomtom but no problems with word.
Both times temp fix (looking at storage) worked (sorry about font cache red herring - thought I was onto something there).
Just tied chi-tai extended battery plugin with the storage showing on the homepage (as a way to force system to get correct memory) but no joy.
I have htc touch com manager and phone skin but not the home plugin.
Cheers
Matt
I think Ive cracked it. Just doing some final testing but watch out for a new "How to" thread.
go Danny go.
Look forward to seeing it.
Will test and report back once you've posted.
Cheers

Sadly the original thread was edited to reflect the OS update was repackaged but eddie2k still goes on the reexplain the process in this thread.

then use winrar to unpack the (bepe) wm6 wwe rom in this page (written in red). flashed using bootloader method.
after u get german rom installed , run ARTE os flash utility from xda ftp (log in properly) link don't work if not logon properly..
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Artemis/arte.zip unpack
copy os.nb from first folder (bepe) wwe rom to arte folder and rename os.nb to windows.nb then run UpgradeRom.bat
hard reset, soft reset done.

Now I didn't bother installing the german O2 release as my MDACIII was CID locked, so I just used ARTE package with Bepes WM6 .nb renamed and flashed the OS only, then after hard resetting, at the point of about to load EXT ROM soft reset.
This thread was also the guide although you could skip the process of extracting the .os from a ROM package as Bepe originally provided us with the raw windows.nb file.
Thanks gajet, Ive just posted the steps. Your post was deffinatly the key. Once I saw you still had your ext rom I knew we could do it.
Answer is here

So I've flashed my Hermes more times than I can remember. But I'm reformatting my laptop to a minimal installation state. I don't want to install active sync unless I have to. The only thing I ever use it for is to flash my Hermes. So I'm going to try the SD Card method found here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
My questions are:
Is this method still valid? Much has changed since this was posted, and I wanted to make sure that each step was still correct.
From the wiki: "SuperCID devices are able to flash any NBH image using this method." I have my Hermes with Hard-SPL-V7. That covers the SuperCID part right?
I will be flashing my Hermes to K's final 6.0 ROM. He has a feature to auto install cabs found on the SD card. I've done it before flawlessly. The wiki calls for a reformatting of the SD card. Is it ok if I still put cabs and the config file on there to auto install the cabs?
EDIT: Looks like I haven't been keeping up. Seems like this is now called User Customization and is pretty wide spread. So to rephrase, can an SD card be used to both flash and provide user customization?
This last question is just curiosity. I haven't tried any 6.1 roms yet. I was waiting for kin0kin to make a non beta one, but it looks like he's stopped development. Are the 6.1 Roms still unstable? Which one most resembles K's roms (stable, no bloat)? I never tried any other cooks outside of vp3g and kin0kin because it seemed like other cooks were more about making as many new roms, as quickly as possible rather than hammering out one very stable rom. Now that kin0kin isn't making a 6.1, who should I turn to?
You should be OK with Hard SPL ver 7 installed. And yes, you should still be able to put the auto config file on the sd card. I generally got the ****s with backing up my sd card to pc, formatting and then having to transfer EVERYTHING back onto the card so just usually put the .nbh file on my sd card AS IS... Never had a problem with flashing. I think we are told to reformat the card as a safety precaution but I've never had problems.
As for wm 6.1, It depends, as what is stable to one person insnt to another... Its common belief that if you flash a stock rom first you wont have any troubles... If you want to try there a few lean roms, FariaDrP clean rom, Hermes_ShadoW_2.1_CE, PV DVH G&C and the "unnamed" wm6.1 to name a few. A search on the forum should find these for you... Cheers, and happy flashing...
thanks for the response.
When you say AS IS, do you mean you don't rename it or anything. Or as in, just putting it on there without reformat AFTER the renaming.
For the 6.1, when I say stable I mean everything works as advertised. No adverse effects like hangs and shutdowns. Is the upgrade even worth it? Is it actually faster? I don't use IE, so that upgrade isn't really needed.
As you've already formatted the card fat 32 to use I just put the .nbh file onto the root directory BUT rename it "hermimg.nbh" otherwise it wont be recognised as a os flash. cheers...
Last week I did a hard reset, but since then did not test the camera soft.
The camera is still working as I can use it with QCode. But camera.exe for the camera seems dead. I don't know if it is due to an other software installation since then.
Does someone have an idea to help me that would avoid me loose time redo a hard reset and install applications?
Given the titel you give this "Camera is not a valid Pocket PC Application..." I assume this is the message you are getting?
Can you check if the Camera.exe in /windows is in ROM or not? You can check with programs like Total Commander. If Camera.exe is not in ROM, delete (or rename) it. Also, Camera.lnk should be in ROM. If you delete the non-rom versions, the rom version should appear again (if you have Total Commander set to show ROM files)
If they are in ROM, do you get the message when starting Camera.lnk? Do you get the error when starting Camera.exe directly? Either way, you may need to not only hard-reset, but reflash your ROM as well. Are you using a custom ROM?
thank for your reply, indeed i have only one camera.exe file in the rom. I'll reflash the rom...
I did not flash my HD until now, that's the good time to do it ;-) I suppose that the problem appeared after I installed the Microsoft VB Runtimes for PocketPC.
Odd. If you did not flash yet and are still on factory ROM there is no reason why the build in camera.exe should be corrupted. It may indicate that above hypotheses is false, though I would not see how.
Do try a hard-reset before you reflash. If it is some other problem, like installing VB runtime, it should be gone after a reflash

Just so we do not miscommunicate: You will only ever see one Camera.exe. The question is: Does it have the ROM attribute. If you (or any installer) install another, it will be in flash, and the ROM one gets 'hidden'.
So, do you see it with the ROM attribute, or did you assume because you saw only one that it was in ROM?
Looking at their properties, they are marked as ROM.
I deleted and got : "impossible to delete" . (seems logical if this is rom)
Before I hardreset / flahs phone, just for testing, would someone be able to send me the camera.exe file?
I'd like to help, but that is not so easy, with these devices, not only can you not copy to rom, you also cannot copy from rom. So it would have to be someone who dumped the entire rom on a PC using one of the ROM kitchens.
Ok, I hard reset and the camera works now. i will consciously reinstall my apps checking which one may have cause the problem. I wish it is not one of the games I said were working on the HD.
So I finally found that I was copying a file HTCSensorSDK.dll which caused this problem. mistake from me, I thought it was necessary for the graphic api.
Hi.
I installed a starburst ROM for someone but they are not technically minded so I was wondering if there was a way to restrict the user to not give any app super user so it acts like stock ROM but with all the looks of the custom rom. I don't want them breaking anything unintentionally!
Thank you.
Tell them to not **** around with it? You can't do stuff like that with custom roms. That is the whole point. If you want it to be "idiot-proof" then install a stock rom or even an RUU. Prob defeating the purpose of what your asking but still.
Ok so I downloaded the most convenient rom from shared roms and it only comes as an exe. When I run it on my Windows 7 x64 machine I just get an error message. I get the same error message when i run it on the xp virtual machine.
I look in the temp folder and I don't get a zip but a folder with a bunch if .ini files and a .cab file.
How do I install this???
Thanks!
If it's not a rom designed specifically for your phone (and operator) then you'll need to make a goldcard - GIYF.
Would of been nice to have the error posted but seems like it is the CID issue. Just make a Goldcard but remember to backup the SD card first.
I know how to install zips but this exe is confusing me.
When I run this I get an error before I see any action, but looking in %temp% I do get the files I mentioned before so it looks like the files are being extracted but are not being transferred.
I need a bit of help guys, the thing is that I'm running Pac-Rom on my LG Nitro HD because I found it to be the most stable rom
after a long trial and error period as well bricking my phone many times. I have only 1 problem on this custom rom, my apps tend to disappear for
absolutely no reason whenever the phone turns off or reboots. I've been messing around for the past 3 days trying to figure out if it's some issue
with the encrypted .android.secure folder so I installed all apps onto the onboard internal storage and deleted the folder then tried replacing all the
apps back on the SDcard hoping that would work, and it didn't. Not all of my apps disappear though, some stay on the SDCard and work perfectly
fine but games over 20-30MB will disappear and I have no clue why. My next effort would be to format the entire SDCard again because I don't
understand why these apps keep disappearing Any ways I appreciate any help, I've been googling and lurking this forum for days now haven't found
anything but a terminal command that doesn't work for me :crying:
Wow this forum is really dead huh?
so,you try to install app to sdcard, and they will disappear?
if this is the case,then make sure you sdcard is not fake. i have seen cards formatted as 16gb, but actually is only 2gb

Nah it's not fake, I have tons of pictures, movies, and music on it as well I'm running Pac-ROM and it shows me the amount of my storage on the sdcard as well, it's just when I install the applications onto the sdcard and the phone restarts the apps I installed onto the sdcard just stay on my screen (if placed on) and when I go to tap on them it says "app not installed" :\
i've never heard of this but it sounds like some sort of bug caused the by reflashing of the partitions during reboot.
does the app get deleted from the sdcard or is the app still on the sdcard just not registered with phone?
if the app hasn't been physically deleted it's a rom issue, try the rom in my sig its based off stock but debloated with custom kernel, its very stable.
or if you have your heart set on the rom your already using, try redownloading and reflashing, don't just reflash your download file was probly corrupt. and i don't think these forums are that dead, this is just a bit of an odd issue that the average person doesn't want to guess at, i like guessing tho
if the app is physically deleted from the sdcard, i would try doing some malware/virus scans, because that would be really fishy.

Well I ended up getting frustrated and downloaded Titanium Backup Pro then moved all my apps onto the SD-Card which works wonders but I decided to change my rom because Pac was using 500mb+ of my ram for system rom memory rather than the normal 200mb since Pac is a hybrid of AOKP, Paranoid Android, and CM10.1 so now I'm happy I got past the SD Card apps not being installed but now I'm having this issue. Yet I cannot even post in the development section due to my posts...
Nevermind I still have the same problem even switching through roms, I'm now running HONO Full Throttle and I'm losing all my apps whenever I restart my phone and have them all on my SD card.
