I just downloaded and installed and after soft reset it shows an error saying ...
"An unexpected error has occurred in WindowsMobileCallBlockSrv.exe. Select quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information.
This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET. Compact Framework than the version installed on this device."
Any ideas how to get it to install? I created a support ticket with the makers at SynergTech Solution website I got it and they haven't responded. I did it yesterday. I think they don't really have any support.
I also noted there is a 1.5 somewhere on the internet but can't figure out how to dl it. Don't know if this helps.
Palm Treo Pro Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro stock Sprint
I guess I could have put this in the General subforum instead. If a mod wants to move it, please do.

Hi all,
i know this is a little bit off-topic, but I've posted it here in the Universal forum as it's relevant for those of us that have a Crossbow installation on our Universals.
you need version 4.5 of activesync installed to be able to sync.
there's my problem.
I can't get it to install.
the installer gets to about 95% and then the error message appears:
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personal or package vendor."
can anyone help with this problem?
without Activesync my Universal is (for my) useless. I need my contacts & calendar!
I'm putting my trust and hope in you - don't let me down!
Thanks!
Have you tried downloading it again from Microsoft's site in case the one you have is corrupt?
mmmm....
....seems an incredibly abvious thing to do!
have downloaded it several times though and from different machines.
have also emptied my TEMP folder on the PC before installation.
still no luck.
bugger!

Best option run filemon and see what's happening/failing. Try turning off any virusscanner/any other weird app, that might be running buggering up file operations.
symantec
i guess that our corporate virus scanner is interfering.
annoying. the previous installations never caused any problems.
i'll have to see if i can get it to install another way.
i'll post back if i get lucky!
could i install if i do a safe start in windows?
SOLUTION
UPGRADE YOUR WINDOWS INSTALL TO VER. 3.0 download from micros or google it
SOLUTION
UPGRADE YOUR WINDOWS INSTALLER TO VER. 3.0 download from micros or google it

i only managed to try the solution today as i've been off work sick.
a HUGE thanks to PDAWHORE (nice name!), his/her tip to upgrade the windows installer software did the trick!
thanks to all and happy PDA'ing...
Hi,
I've played the demo on my HD. It worked (only in VGA resolution) and I liked it. So I purchased the full game from Atstraware, but the installation always fails. I sent an email to Atstraware a week ago but got no answer from them.
This was part of my email:
...
I really liked the game after playing the demo. I downloaded the full version of the game from the link provided in the email. However, the installation always fails. Here is what I did:
- I followed the link in the email and downloaded the 109 MB file (brokensword1wm5-ppc-v1-00-wm5-full.exe)
- installed it while the device is connect to the PC through ActiveSync (There was more than 250 MB free space)
- I noticed the free space went about 100 MB less.
- then this error appeared on my device "Installation of Astraware Broken Sword was unsuccessful" and this should be normal as it was said in the instructions.
- so I tried to find the file using the file manager, but couldn't find Astraware Broken Sword.Cab . I tried installing it several times but no use.
- then I noticed that after the error appears the free space returns to its original space before installing. Which obviously means that the file is being deleted after the error message.
- I even tried extracting the cab file from the downloaded exe file. I got brokensword1.PPC_2577.WM5.CAB extracted from the exe file. Then I transfered it to my device, and tried to install it but I got another error "Installation of brokensword1.PPC_2577.WM5.CAB was unsuccessful."
My device is HTC Touch HD Windows Mobile 6.1
My Pocket PC owner name is: XX
My registration code for this game is: xxxxxxx
What am I doing wrong? Could you please assist me in solving this issue?
Thank you,

Is there any way I can get it to work?
I know this is not the right place, but it is the only place I'm sure I can get help from.
always sux when full version of applications does not work
i would re-send this mail to support once a day until you get a reply
if astraware has a forum; register and post there as well
Thanks. It appears that there is a forum for Broken Sword game in the Astraware forum, but it has been inactive for 3 months. I posted my problem there anyway as you suggested. Hopefully, I will get an answer.
But if you guys could help, I would really appreciate it!
Hello
The file name said xxxx.WM5.CAB
Blackstone is WM 6.1 - may this be the problem?
usually programs for WM 5 dont work on blackstone as I have noticed while installing something with WM5 in the name...
Try to check whether there is a version for WM 6.1..
Or maybe I am worng just an opinion...
Have you tried with SCUMMVM ?
OP said the trial worked. So it's a bit odd that the full version doesn't.
I agree try it in scummVM. I play all the classics through it. Its brilliant.
i have downloaded the demo and windows installer will not instal it, when i go to where the cab is, with me program files and Astraware then Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars Demo for Pocket PC and copy the cab to my HD and soft reset when i could install the demo...
I don't know what can help you problem
Use the WVGA FIX 1.3 in order to set your screen's analysis to 640x480 and then i think it will work just fine
Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and Windows Mobile phones. I don't know if this question has been posted before, but I couldn't find it. When I install some programs, and try to run them, the following message appears, and suspends:
"An unexpected error has occurred. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Detail for more information.
This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device."
Any solution to this?
TIA.
You can probably guess the solution from the error message itself. You need a newer version of .NET Compact Framework.
A quick search for "Microsoft .NET Compact Framework" will get you here.
yea i got it installed...thank you....actually i had come across that site before, but for some reason it wasnt installing on my device. anyway, after a soft restart of my phone as well as my computer, when i tried it again, it worked.
thanks.
Hi. I just recently purchased an HTC Touch Pro2 from T-Mobile running WinMo 6.5. That being said, I have not been able to open any cab files on the device to install some software. Basically I'll transfer the cab to the device and attempt to open it. I get one of three messages depending on the app I guess. the most basic is "Installation was unsuccessful" to "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting...not digitally signed...trusted certificate" (this was from MobileFTPClient). Installing Opera Mini 5 gives a simple: "Installation of mini5wm.cab was unsuccessful".
Ok, so being a software developer for 10 years I've been looking into some registry values and can't seem to find what I need to get anything to install. If I download from the Windows Marketplace that's all good, but nothing else.
What do I need to do to be able to install cab flils directly? Honestly if I can't get this to work this phone is going back. I moved from an iPhone to this phone specifically so I can install apps and monkey around with the device, but so far I'm done before I started.
Thanks for any info you can give me.
its in one of your phone/device settings to let u download and install apps or cabs not digitally signed. thats all, i believe. just find it and check it off. or look for advanced config cab if u can find it and install that. it has an option in there also to let u download/install whatever..

The cab I have attached may help you...it's some SDK certificates that will allow installation of certain unsigned apps, but I don't know if this is what the ones you're running are requiring and missing. It won't harm anything to try this one, and you can easily uninstall it if it doesn't do the trick
Thanks guys. Sirphunkee - that cab actually installed, but I'm having the same problem. Another forum has suggested that I take the device back to T-Mobile, but it just seems like there's a setting that's not right in the OS. Demandarin - I've looked for various security permissions in the UI with no luck. I've mucked around with some Policy values in the registry per some threads on this forum, but still nothing.
I'll keep trying, and thanks.
So...weird; Opera Mini and Weather Bug (well known apps) wouldn't install, but an SMS notification disable cab installed (from the xda site) as did Evernote (evernote.com). I have no clue what the deal is, but it's getting beyond stupid that I can't install just any cab file.

Have you already installed .Net 3.5? It's a framework that many other programs use (and need) to install, and it's not on the TP2 by default...it's the only other think I could think of that would keep you from installing stuff. Cab is attached, if you don't have it already.
Got it. I installed the Device Security Manager PowerToy and was able to change the configuration there. Opera Mini 5 just installed.
Never would have thought the phone would come that locked down, but so far so good. Thanks for all of the ideas.

Well yeah what's weird is that I never had to use that to get any of those apps installed
Hi guys,
I'm having a very annoying problem with the Mango Beta. I haven't been able to deploy anything to the emulator, even with Beta 1. Everytime I try and deploy any basic app (7.0 or 7.1) I get a deployment error messagebox with the error window reading "The version option is invalid". It seems that not many other people have run into this problem and I'm currently working with MS support to try and fix this. However, has anyone here experienced this or have any ideas how to fix it?
I've updated the SDK to Mango beta 2, but I get the same error. For this reason, I'm not updating my device to Mango as I don't want to end up being able to deploy any app to it. (Formatting the PC is out of the question )
FWIW, I've tried using VS2010 Ultimate + SP1 and just the standard VS Express for Windows Phone.
Thanks for any ideas!

But Formatting the PC is probably the solution to your probs...
Happen to alot of ppl with various probs ...after new installation all are OK
Whilst true, I think if I can help find the cause of the problem, then others who come across it can have a simpler solution than format. I'm currently working with MS support, so hopefully something comes from that but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas what could be causing this.
Post this today and suddenly I find a fix
I've managed to solve the problem by moving all the files in these three folders:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\XDE
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Phone Tools\CoreCon\10.0
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\CoreCon\1.0
Instead of deleting them, I just created a new directory in their respective folders and moved the files there in case I needed them back. I also uninstalled all Visual Studio versions I had installed, but I don't think that made a difference. I've successfully deployed using the VS2010 Express for Windows Phone, so hopefully VS2010 Ultimate should work once it's installed. Will update tomorrow.
Update - Yup, everything seems to be working perfectly now . I have a feeling it's something to do with the VHD/decfg files in the XDE folder more than anything. I've written a step by step guide for anyone who comes across the problem.
