Remove Software with CAB File - Windows Mobile Software Development

We would like to remove software from Windows Mobile Devices using a CAB-file, Can someone help with a step by step manual? Which files must the CAB-File contain, how is the naming, ,,, ?

on microsoft developer network I found the following example but don't how use it
Uninstalling an Application Example
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="UnInstall">
<characteristic type="My Application">
<parm name="uninstall" value="1"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

I wonder if this works with a cab, but you can use it in cpf (just rename the cab file to cpf and run it in device).

Are you wanting to remove software that is built into the rom?
If so, it may be a daunting task. Files that are "cooked" into the rom stay after being deleed.
It may be an easier task to cook a new rom for the devices (at least it would be for me), and leave out the programs you want removed.
As for making a simple cab file, it appears that is one of the things I lost when upgrading to windows 7! I had a bunch of notes on how to do it.
You can search the forums to find how to make a cab from an xml (the format you posted)

Very good !!!!!!!
I just did it and it's OK

Interesting Discussion there in the WLAN Topic Sounds so familiar ^^
I really Hope that T-Mobile did not order a device that is built by their individual wishes and has WLAN disabled by hardware. I don't Know how much T-Mobile Netherlands and T-Mobile Germany cooperate, regarding their "Buying Management" Maybe the Fact that NL Artemis comes with WLAN is sign enough

Not even with Totalcommander?
I am using Resco Explorer 5.35. So you think Total Commander will succed ?

Didn't work for me. Total Commander worked originally but now I can't see any files in there even though if I try to replace them it says it can't overwrite them.
... did you perform a softreset after installation?
Of course I reset
Probably a stupid question, did you switch it Off before you soft reset? - Mike
nope still on
I think somehow my extended rom is screwed anyway

... experienced the same problem. However, found a temporal solution by trying to format the Extended_ROM2 storage. Although the formatting does not work (i.e. an error message "Can't format selected storage card. Check if your card is unlocked" appears), the files in Extended_ROM are back after this unsuccessful action until a next soft reset; then the files disappear again. I reckon it could be another way of Extended_ROM unlocking protection. (???)

Hi, it´s now possible to unlock the Extended Rom? I Can see the Exteded Rom but its lock, i can´t format the storage.
I have find a Registry Key that don´t was in the HTC Prophet, you can found it in HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/TrueFFS1/ here is now a nex key SoftwareWriteProtect. I have change it to 0 but the Extended Rom stay locked, who can help? I need the extra Storage, please
When you unlock ext rom, basically you change security on partition.
On compact III this leads to some files to be deleted from ext rom.
Be carefull with this.

Hello guys,
I have a HTC P3300 (Artemis) and yesterday executed the program refered in this thread to unlock the extended ROM.
I was able to saw the Extended ROM and I did a copy of all files to my PC, but 5 minuts later I cant see anything in the extended ROM.
All files disapeared. there is nothing in the extended.
I did a soft reset and a Hard Reset (error!!) and obviusly the Artemis doen't load the extended ROM files because they have dissapeared.
I tryed to copy the extended ROM files from my computer to te extended Rom again but it seems to be writting protected.
Someone can Help Me?
The files in my Extended ROM (Spanish version) were:
ChgScutAttri.exe
Config.txt
MP_CVSDcpl_20060718.cab
MP_TT6_Voice10_ESN.cab
MP_ttn.cab
PP_DefaultPage_WWE.CAB
PP_ExtVer.xml
PP_RemoveBTlnk.cab
ST_PatchPeripheral.cab
and the Config.txt content is:
LOCK:Enabled
EXEC:\Windows\cusTSK.exe \Windows\HTC_Default.tsk
CAB: \Extended_ROM\MP_CVSDcpl_20060718.cab
XML: \Windows\MP_MMS3.5_HTC_Generic_Artemis_060818.xml
CAB: \Extended_ROM\PP_DefaultPage_WWE.CAB

CAB: \Extended_ROM\ST_PatchPeripheral.cab
CAB: \Extended_ROM\MP_TT6_Voice10_ESN.cab
EXEC:\Extended_ROM\ChgScutAttri.exe
LOCKisabled
RST: Reset
I have copied all the files to a temporary directory in the PDA and tried to execute all of them in the order of the config.txt file, but I can't execute the XLM files. When I execute them they open in the Pocket InternetExplorer and seems to be changes to introduce in the registry.
This is the content of the PP_ExtVer.xml (for example):
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM" translation="filesystem" >
<parm name="ExtROMVersion" datatype="string" value="1.12.412.101" translation="filesystem" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
Can someone help me to execute this two XML files to do that xhanges in my registry?
Can someone help me to put back to the original situation the Extended ROM?
Thank you!!!
Hi Stoper,
It seems that we all have the same problem.... :-(
Beware!!! Extrom Gets Deleted!!!
I really am sorry putting you through all this trouble due to this unlocker!!!
The only way i found to rectify this problem is to reflash an original rom, e.g. from the wiki here. if you get "wrong model id" than you are not flashing the same rom as before.(e.g. orig german now english language)
remedy would be to cid-unlock your phone and than be able to flash mentioned roms.
How can we cid-unlock our roms?

[GUIDE] How to configure VoIP/SIP client in WM6.

Here is an example of VoIP provisioning for WM6.
Claims that it does not work have been greatly exaggerated.
Actually, it works quite well for me (test done a Wizard based on a modified Orwell ROM).
Check if the VoIP is support is present in your ROM, as some cooks have removed them from the ROM.
so look for the Internet Calling today item as well as for the following files from the packages VoIP and VoIPOS in the \Windows directory:
[*]ipdialplan.xml
[*]dnsapi.dll
[*]voipphonecanvas.dll
[*]rtcdll.dll
If you don't have Internet Calling support in your ROM, complain to your favorite cook, not me.
Internet Calling is an integral part of WM6 and should not be removed.
For the HTC Wizard, the Orwell1984, the PDAViet ROMs, MB ROM and mUn_aRTM_10_2_0_8_WWE have the necessary modules.
For other devices, try it for yourself, as I don't know the specifics of the ROMs..
Ok. Let' go to the setup on how to do it.
Simple: 1-2-3 steps.
you will have to create a _setup.xml file with your provisioning information, any text editor will do, use the attached sample as a baseline.
run the following command: cabarc N myVoIPsettings.cab _setup.xml
get your newly created .cab file on the WM6 PPC and run it.
Note: if you don't have cabarc, you can get it from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/198038
Voilà! You might have to turn on your Wifi (it does not work over GPRS/EDGE)
and select "Whenever Available" as an option in Phone/Menu/Options/Internet or Settings/Phone/Internet.
Soon, you will be connected to your preferred VoIP provider...
As sample of the _setup.xml file is attached as _setup.xml.txt.
You can also see its content in the following section.
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="VoIP">
<parm name="SIPSettings"
value="<provision key='1232ab01' name='_sip_provider_name_'>
<provider name='_sip_provider_name_' />
<user account='_account_' password='_password_'
uri='sip:[email protected]_host.com_'
allowedauth='digest'/>
<sipsrv addr='_sip_proxy.com_' protocol='UDP' role='proxy'>
<session party='First' type='pc2pc' />
<session party='First' type='pc2ph' />
</sipsrv>
<sipsrv addr='_sip_registrar.com_' protocol='UDP' role='registrar'/>
</provision>" />
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
So get the attached _setup.xml.txt and do the following modifications:
rename _setup.xml.txt to _setup.txt (not obvious to every one according to the comments in this thread),
replace _sip_provider_name_ by your provider name,
_account_ and _password_ by your user name and password,
sip:[email protected]_host.com_ should be your SIP address,
_sip_proxy.com_ and _sip_registrar.com_ are your SIP proxy and registrar,
sometimes it's the same thing as your sip_host.com.
Sometimes not. It depends on your provider.
save the file as _setup.xml and run the cabarc N voip.cab _setup.xml
transfer the cab on the PPC and run it!
How to check your installation?
-
If the provisioning worked you should find a Prov0SIPSettings under the directory \Windows\System\VoIP.
Creation date and time should match the instant when you ran your .cab file.
If you don't find one, that means that you have a syntax error in your _setup.xml file.
To demonstrate the process, you can use my attached file without any modification.
It will create Prov0SIPSettings file, but nothing will work with the dummy settings of my sample file, of course .
To activate Internet Calling over 3G (thanks Sleuth255 & Golfman),
go to the HKLM\Comm\RTC\AdapterTypes with a registry editor (like Total Commander),
now delete both the "1" and the "2" values that are here,
next reset your device and Internet calling will connect over the data connection for your phoneservice.
If you need to re-apply different settings (if you changed your .xml file and .cab),
you will have to delete first the Prov0SIPSettings file under \Windows\System\VoIP
prior re-applying your new .CAB file. Otherwise, your new settings will be ignored.
Let me know how you do on this.
Enjoy!
--eluth, the comparison Guy.
One additional information, if you start dialing.
You probably will have to customize the ipdialplan.xml based on your region & VoIP provider requirements, in order to have the proper phone numbers dials.
The default one assumes a US SIP proxy in 425...
Cheers.
--eluth.
incase those files you have listed doesnot exist, what is the way of getting them. Can you arrange a cab or something?
I'm missing the files too and which program do i need to run the "cabarc" command?
I amended the post to point to where to download cabarc.
The link is http://support.microsoft.com/kb/198038
You can also just google for cabarc and you will find it.
As far as the ROM itself is concerned, if you don't have "Internet Calling" on your today screen and cannot enable it, I'm sorry. Please complain to your cook or use another ROM that has it. See my amended initial post for details.
Regards,
--eluth.
Wow I have been waiting for ages for this! We use an Asterisk SIP at work and would love to do away with my other softphones... A few (maybe) silly questions:
1) edited replied above
2) ipdialplan, can you include an example?
3)When you say "if you start dialing" do you mean just dialing with the standard Phone application?
Nearly there.......
I followed eluth's instructions and I'm nearly there..... I need a SIP server now
I installed the cab I created with some dummy settings and I can see the Wizard attempt to register with the SIP server address I have added to the _setup.xml file. The 'Internet Calling' today plugin now says 'Searching...' whilst it attempts to register with the SIP server, after it times out it now says 'No Service'.
Excellent. I will take a look at what files and registry settings are created so I can include this in my own ROM
Andy
I've installed the WM6 SIP Cab from the FTP (ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/WMXL_Support_Files/WM6VoIP.CAB)
but the files in the windows dir are still missing.
Eluth you rock!
Have it working on mu Universal with Helmi rom + VOIP cab file. If I am on WiFi with Voip set to whenever available, my phone provider is no longer Orange but my SIP server! I think there might be some pissed off telcos soon!
It seems the calls are "forced" through speakerphone but works fine with a bt headset.
Connected and making calls through our Asterisk SIP (although only through my shortcut numbers, I expect I need to work on the dialplan file).
Anyone out there capable of making a document on how the dialplan file should be generated?
Once again eluth, well done! This is the main reason I moved to WM6 and now I have what I wanted!

you need show all files on
So i have to install another CAB?
This is EXCELLENT news !!!!! Good work !
Could the leadspeaker only problem be caused by the Radio Rom not supporting SIP?
(Sorry for the Newbeeee question) ?
I was just wondering whether WM6 devices will support SIP just like a normal GSM call in terms of using the handset speaker ?
(Im dying to try this out, unfortunately my Universal has a very bad case of alignment issues, and I cant get pas the screen alignment screen... Sigh.....)
Anyway thats excellent news !
Please keep the information coming for us poor plebs with non working bricks
How to with WinCECab
How do I creat the .cab with wincecabmanager and in what directory to install??
I followed your guide, and made the cab file (i had to do that a few times to get the correct sip sittings)
I have an asterisk network, and this connects perfectly over wifi, calls are clear and FAST! (i am not sure which codec the MS sip stuff uses though)
i am using the 3DES rom.
I was suprised that the sip dialing is using the normal EAR speaker, not the one on the back of the phone! so thats very cool!
When dialing numbers i am having to type in 00countrycode (eg. 0044) instead of using the numbers from my address book +countrycode (eg. +44), it just wont dial with +countrycode, i think this is due to the regional settings maybe.
thanks for the guide, very cool stuff!
nicely done eluth! You beat me to this one I was missing the cabarc piece of this for doing the WM provisioning.... (put off till MEDC actually).

Hello papmopps,
... Actually you don't. WinCeCabManager is for creating CABs with files inside (software install).
What we are doing here is to create a cab for XML provisioning.
You do that with cabarc or makecab (Microsoft free tools), not WinCeManager.
Look for XML Provisioning with Cab files in msdn for more info.

--eluth.

Raix,
Which device/ROM are you using?

Ok, vonage soft phone is working perfectly. Calls to my softphone use regular headset speaker and transfer to BT if my headset is active. In fact, when active I can make calls to my softphone and my regular cellphone number.
WM6VoIP.cab is mine btw and will enable VoIP fully on WM6. Here are the Vonage settings:
_put_account_here_ = your 11 digit softphone number
_put_password_here_ = the password assigned to it (combination of 10 random numbers/letters)
Here's the provisioning:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="VoIP">
<parm name="SIPSettings"
value="<provision key='1232ab01' name='Vonage'>
<provider name='Vonage' />
<user account='_put_account_here_' password='_put_password_here_'
uri='sip:[email protected]'
allowedauth='digest'/>
<sipsrv addr='sphone.vopr.vonage.net:5061' protocol='UDP' role='proxy'>
<session party='First' type='pc2pc' />
<session party='First' type='pc2ph' />
</sipsrv>
<sipsrv addr='sphone.vopr.vonage.net:5061' protocol='UDP' role='registrar'/>
</provision>" />
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
note: if no joy, try making the following registry setting change:
HKLM\System\VoIP\SIP
EnablePort5060 = 1
edit: note, I didn't have to make this registry change to enable my softphone account.
bummer.... while calls transfer to my BT headset, there's no sound at all.... This will take a bit of troubleshooting I'm afraid.

Sorry i forgot to mention that.
I'm using a Hermes with Kyphurs XDA Live 0.2 Rom.
After the Installation of the WM6VoIP.cab the needed Files in the windows dir are still missing.
Nevertheless i created a cab with my settings and installed it but that didn't work, because there are no entries in the Windows\Voip Dir.
But i'm sure this whole thing will be fixed
EDIT:
Damnit i forgot to check "Show all Files". All neede Files are there! Even a settings file after installing my cab. But the SIP Client can't connect to sipgate right now (still says "not available"). I'm going to check and test my settings now!
EDIT2:
I just forgot the Port after the SIP Server.
with sipgate.de:5060 everything works fine!
Great work!

XmlToReg - Convert registry provisioning files to .reg files

There are several tools available for converting .reg files to xml registry provisioning files, but none for going in the other direction. Admittedly, not quite so common a requirement, but could still come in handy.
This is a Windows command line tool which accepts an xml registry provisioning file as the only command line argument (just drop the .xml file on the .exe), and produces a .reg file next to it, in RegEdit v5 Unicode format.
Comments, suggestions, and bug reports all welcome.

Updates:
0.2:
Now supports empty values for String, MultiString and Binary values

Brilliant Alex. Simply brilliant
Hi Alex,
wow, I think it took only 2 days from when I told you about my idea until you turned it into a usable solution!
Congratulations and a big thank!
One thing that occurred when I tested with some of my xml files (seems that I've always got the strangest testing files one can imagine...)
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\Comm\TIACXWLN1\Parms\TCPIP">
<parm name="WINS" value="" datatype="multiplestring"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
The empty string value="" leads to a conversion abortion.
Maybe you can build in a fix for such a situation?
Thank you very much again for turning this into reality and I'll let you know in case i'll find anything else that needs to be fixed if you don't mind!
Version 0.2 released
Thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't considered empty values. I don't think an empty value is valid for a numeric or boolean data type, but there's no reason a string or binary value shouldn't be empty. Version 0.2 should handle them properly, and is now available in the first post.
Alex
First, it's great that you made this app! But, I am having an issue with this.
I don't know why, but it doesn't make a real reg file. I just get an empty one!
I am attaching the provxml I tried it with!
That provxml isn't a registry provisioning file. It claims to be a "Metabase" provisioning file, which is one I'm not familiar with. It does seem to contain registry data, though, just not in the Registry provisioning format. What produced this file?
Too bad. This is a provxml for a language SYS package for a WM 6.1 Standard ROM. I wanted to make CABs out of the packages, because not all languages fit in one ROM and I don't want to male 3 ROMs just for all languages. Unfortunately if I don't add the information of this file, not everything gets translated
Thanks for your help!
Thanks for this great tool buddy. I was looking for it since long ago.
Good app THX
Great app Thanks

How to customize the Chome WM 6.5 ROM

Here is a little tutorial to customize the Chome WM 6.5 ROM , this discovery is credited to sebastien13.
First go to Xda and download this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497232
It will enable / disable the tables and put in the order that suits you.
Then download it here:

Disable Chome Today the once unzip the folder, copy "cmhomeres.dll.0409.mui" in Windows and "mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs.provxml" in My Documents. Launch "AdvancedConfig" Menu-Import. Provisioning XML, then click My Documents, the box at the bottom click mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs.provxml, wait 5 seconds and then "OK" and "Completed."
Today's Chome reactivate, you will have a "Programs" and in addition by dragging right or left 9 programs will appear.
You can also change the programs and the order among 9.
This example is for the left softkey:
<characteristic type="HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="SK1TEXT" datatype="string" value="Calculatrice"/>
<parm name="SK1URL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\MobileCalculator.exe"/>
</ characteristic>
SK1TEXT is the text of the left softkey in all tables
SK1URL is the way to the program.
For 9 programs:
<characteristic type="HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CWelcomeCenter\Page1" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="ACTIONURL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\Hibernate.exe"/>
<parm name="TEXT2" datatype="string" value="Récupération of RAM"/>
<parm name="TITLETEXT" datatype="string" value="Mise in route"/>
<parm name="TEXT1" datatype="string" value="Hibernate"/>
<parm name="SK2TEXT" datatype="string" value="Hibernate"/>
<parm name="SK2URL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\Hibernate.exe"/>
</ characteristic>
ACTIONURL AND TEXT1, TEXT2 : command Tab
SK2URL AND SK2TEXT : command right softkey
So, I count on you a little to further improve ease of use of this new interface. Post your experience and if you find something else do not hesitate to share it.
Reserved for update
Oh, thanks a million. Very usefull guide.
Thanx chanvi 4 this tutorial.
It works perfect!
Thanks again Chanvi!
This is exactly what was missing for me with CHome ... and I had been trying very hard to do this with the launcher panel in TitanWeather but with little success.
Quick word of warning to other users though -> Edit the Provisioning XML before you go and import it!
(lol, at least read the thing before you import it and then come one here posting complaints )
In it's current state it is a great example of how to customise your "Programs" panel but I imagine most people are going to prefer to keep "Contacts" as their SK1 key (whereas this xml will change that to be Calculator ... on every panel)
Thanks the.decoy for the warning
A little change in 1rst post :
ACTIONURL AND TEXT1, TEXT2 : command Tab
SK2URL AND SK2TEXT : command right softkey
So you can have until 18 programs .
Works like a chrm for me.
3 quick questions :
> how to show on the picture panel, the photo in \storage card\my documents\my pictures ? by defaut it uses My picture in my device ...
> how to add a favourite contacts tab (that would be very useful and could make CHome at the level of M2D....) ?
> is it possible to add more than 9 favourite programs in such tab ?

I have been setting up the Programs panel, and I am trying to work out 2 things:
- What is the "ADC" page for? (i.e. why "ADC", not "page10"? can I just use any name? etc)
- Why is my "Page2" page no showing up?
I noticed that in the registry all of the other (visible) pages have two things under their reg entry:
(1) These two keys (although the PICTURES value ranges from 2500-2509)
"PICTURES"="2501"
"GUID"="{2F710F22-9F19-43fa-8F35-9927D246B078}"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(2) A sub folder called "0409" which seem to be remnants of the original WelcomeCenter panel. eg:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CWelcomeCenter\Page1\0409]
"TEXT2"="Set date and time"
"TITLETEXT"="Getting Started"
"TEXT1"="Clock"
"SK2TEXT"="View All"
"ACTIONURL"=":MSWelcomeCenter;\\Windows\\wc_setdatetime.0409.wcml"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
...
Actually, nevermind about "Page2", I just fixed that by manually creating the GUID and PICTURES keys myself (GUID is the same for all of them and I just gave it the PICTURES value of 2502).
Still curious what the deal is with "ADC" ...
Also trying to find if there is a way to set specific icon pics for each Page (instead that default one from the original WelcomeCenter pages).

Hi all.
One question:
After i import it once (the mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs file), i've made changes to the file (like switching some of the programs and the text that appears) and wanted to import the file a second time, but it gave me some error about the NETCFv35 (something like it had an error message avaiable for this exception but it was not possible to show).
My question is: How can i import the file, every time i make a change?
Thanks in advance.

I found that you can keep importing the provxml into AdvancedConfig over and over (whenever you make changes). No problems.

CHome & Tasks
Hello
First of all Great Job for this Chome's customiser.
Do you know if there is a way to have also the tasks showing on the main screen of Chome or at least in your programs link of chome. I've tried 'poutlook tasks' in your xml file but without result. Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance
I have a problem i have xda2 6.5 on my wizard ,and i installed Chome configurator and titanium customizer , and pretty much messed up the things is there a way different than a hard reset that i can restore my chome default settings and try again thanks !
"Re-import" mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs
NoTeu said:
Hi all.
One question:
After i import it once (the mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs file), i've made changes to the file (like switching some of the programs and the text that appears) and wanted to import the file a second time, but it gave me some error about the NETCFv35 (something like it had an error message avaiable for this exception but it was not possible to show).
My question is: How can i import the file, every time i make a change?
Thanks in advance.

I found that you can keep importing the provxml into AdvancedConfig over and over (whenever you make changes). No problems.

Well, i can't seem to import it for the second time... keeps popping the message...
Did you soft/hard reseted?
Nor reseting or disabling CHome works for me...

[TIP] Defaulting 720p video recording on HTC devices

Hello ladies and guys,
I came across some dumps of ROMs with WP7 when checking some stuff in it, and I think I might be on my way to the 720p auto-selecting when recording videos on HTC devices.
You must have your phone unlocked and deploy one file into \Windows, named camerasettingsmanifest.0409.xml (or if you are using another lang then modify it manually - or use this one renamed but the description will be in English!).
On line or around that line number 41 - 49 is settings for video recording:
Code:
<setting
type="enum"
mode="video"
guid="{9F4200C4-72CC-412d-9313-625D0B504183}"
title="Resolution">
<value friendlyName="720P (1280 x 720)" width="1280" height="720" />
<value friendlyName="VGA (640 x 480)" width="640" height="480" default="true" />
<value friendlyName="QVGA (320 x 240)" width="320" height="240" />
</setting>
I think it is obvious what to modify
Pick the 720p one, extract the zip and via some cool tools like TouchXplorer copy it to \Windows (I think you are going to need that tool (XBMod?) to create XAP from it and deliver it to phone, I don't have it there right now, sorry, will update later). And probably reboot device to make sure it will work.
If it will fail, just either delete the new one and it will put there back the original one or overwrite it again with the no-720p one.
I can't test it right now as my HD2 is running WM6.5.3 and not WP7, but who is going to give it a try?
Please note that I take no responsibility for damage happened to your device! And I haven't tested this yet. This .xml was taken from latest HTC Schubert 1.60 ROM (and it is the same as in WP7 HD2 dump btw).
would be a cool tip if we can edit camerasettings.xml ... atleast for now access to this file is denied
When unlocked phone, you can't deploy it via HTC's ProvXML way and via the provxml make the file move from eg \My Documents\my ringtones to \Windows?
Like I said, I don't have WP7 handset right now to test it.
Is it me or is there nothing inside the zip files when I open them.
There is one .xml in both of those, they are maybe hidden so it won't show them.

I copyed the file to the win dir but it didn't work (maybe it get removed after boot)

Yeah they were hidden while try them.
Weird then, I was hoping the solution would be this easy. I'll look onto some more dumps from other ROMs from Samsung or LG how is handled settings there.

it cant work. the file is already in the windows dir...and its writeprotected...
provxml delete command cant delete it, same with fileexplorers.
Of course this is the file which holds the settings for the cam, so this tip is valid...we just dont have "overwrite"-access to windowsfiles

strange , after a reboot I copied the file from the win dir to the pc and if I open it it is the modded file , that mean you can overwrite a file in the win dir.
ps: I didn't use the provxml , I just copied it to the win dir using the webserver app and touch explorer
I wish there was mention of changing it to default to always flash when taking a picture. All my pictures are blurry unless I force a flash when taking pictures (even in daylight). I have to change this setting every single time I take a picture.

You are right. Deleting doesnt work...but overwriting works
And the tweak itself works like a charm, too thx
@cees: you have to change the languagecode to our language (0407)
Wow, good to hear
I should make bold that .0409 or any other lang related stuff .
Doesn't work for me!
720p option is selected but recording is not in 720p i steel need to clic on it
to really set it.
Hmm then it appears to set default just the description text and not the option itself
Too bad
