I don't know what i did, but now my sms tab at the bottom of touchflo 2.1 is permanently saying i have a new message.
please help.

use the attached file. Copy to your phone, open via file explorer and run the .exe. It should clear your phone and give you a message when it is completed.

That's a known bug, it's been discussed here many times.
Unzip the file below, place the .exe file inside on your phone (on the SD card is best), and run it from there...it should clear up the phantom notification.
EDIT: Ok burton, are we even now? LOL You couldn't have planned that any better!

how to instal .cab

I searched for the exact title and I wasn't able to find anything. I am wondering how to install a new Chome thing. I think that is what a .cab is right?
I am talking about installing this....

Thank you in advance.
Why don't you try asking the creator of those cabs ? What a fresh idea...
Why did this dude open a new thread for a topic from another thread????

Yeah, you're right. Installer files to have the ".cab" extension at the end. Just use ActiveSync to send the file from your PC to your Dash. Remember where you've stored it, because when you open File Explorer (on your phone) you'll need to go straight to that same location. Open the .cab and the file should install on your phone. Reboot.
thank you for you answer. To address what they said about why I alway's open a new thread, I think I already said that I couldn't find a thread about it so I oppenned my own. Also should I have asked this question in a thread about something else (that's what you are makeing it sound like)?
"alway's" "oppenned" and "makeing" are not words in the English language
I put the file on my phone went into it and clicked the setup file, it went to like Internet Explorer and did a bunch of crap, then I restarted the phone and nothing changed?
Install this... "Cab via Activesync".
Link here > http://www.modaco.com/content/manual_uploads/CABviaActiveSync 1.4 Setup.exe
After that installs, go to where you downloaded the cab file on your computer, right click on it, and choose "Cabviaactivesync". Make sure your phone is connected and synced up before you do. It will automatically install on your phone
I had the same question. Thanks for the answers.
alright so I DLed the program and I go into the folder on my computer and go right click the set up and click the Cabviaactivesynce and then it give's me some error?
I don't know what else to do?
This is the error
To Run This Application you first must install one of the following versions of .NET Framework
V2.........
Why don't you just read what the error says and.... act on it ? Go download what it tells you to download! I mean, how much spoon feeding do you need ?

how much spoon feeding do I need? You must not remember what it was like to be new to this stuff? I am very new to this modding stuff so I would appreciate if you would let people who are helpfull and not rude help me and you just ignore my thread. Thank you.
I DLed the fix for the .NET problem. Correct me if I am wrong, I download the file from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388248
and then I extract the folder to my desktop, then I open the folder and right click the set up file and click cabviaactivesync. When I do that I now get Exception of Type "System Exception was thrown.
What to do?
Alright so I have been looking (Googling) my problem and I found that 1.3 doesn't have the bug's so I DLed it and now I get unable to install the cab visit there website to report the problem.
I am thinking that I am doing the installation wrong.
In my last post please tell me if I am taking the correct steps and right clicking the correct file(s).?
wow I just figurred it out, I just didn't have to extract the file. WOW. That was simple if I just didn't overthink.
with the .cab installed my HomeScreen is a little weird, it didn't seem to install the whole file because it doesn't look and thing like the pictures given in the thread.
All of my thing's are X'ed out now, such as MY5 and my different browser's?
Also just for info. how do I uninstall a .cab

Now I can't help you there. I haven't tampered with this .cab just yet...so I don't know how it "should" look.
Well seeing how's that's my .cab he installed... I would probably be the most apropriate person to help with it. But since you don't need my help, I'll let someone else have the "honor"
My advice, google BEFORE you ask simple questions...

I never said I didn't need your help, in fact your help would be awesome.
Can you help me out as to why the .cab doesn't look like the picture and why My5 and Programs and so on have a red X for the symbol for the Slide?

keyboard mapping error and Kavana's latest ROM

Okay, I dug through the 160+ pages of his thread (okay maybe the last 20) and I found no mention of the problem I'm having. I apologize if this is a double post but maybe this will help people who are having the same problem quickly find it.
I have a T-mobile Dash I recently updated to Kavana's latest rom, and when I go to type a text message (this is all I've checked so far) Instead of qwerty I get like q.arrty or something of the like. The keyboard mapping is off. Is there a fix for this around?
Self bumping - I found it after looking a little harder. Thanks to Rip Syntaxx for the having it in your sig.

I also needed this
Thank you for that zip file that should solve the problem with the keyboard. I also have a t-mobile dash and I tried flashing the kavana 6.1 but I had a problem with the keys being backwards but hopefully this fixes it. I would just like to know if anyone can help with the internet settings. I have the t-mobile internet plan but when I flash to kavana it's all erased and tells me to set up an ip or whatever but I do not know how to do any of that stuff and I just want the exact same t=mobile internet settings, can someone help me out?

Transfer it to your phone via ActiveSync. Put it in your phone's 'My Documents' folder. Using 'File Explorer' (on your phone), open and install the .cab. Reboot your phone.
Rip...LMAO you might as well place those instructions in your signature as well
or make a read me text in a a folder prior to the folder with the cab

ummm I am not sure, I know that a .cab file would solve everything.

Just so you all know programs like these use your computer to install the program.
Make sure your phone is connected using a usb cord and it'll install it.
you might need to App Unlocl your phone. goto: mobile.surrealnetworks.com and click on applications for Dash. there is one or two programs that will unlock your phone to allow various programs to be installed. that might do the trick. someone correct me if im wrong.
...just my $.02

Newbie: Photo Contacts Pro 5 info
Hi All,
I am a newcomer to this forum and let me tell you that you guys do a great job with coming up with information and guidelines on Excalibur software so I have to give you applause for that. Does anybody have any info on this? I have the demo and it seems like it is a good application.
Thanks
I loathe photo contacts pro 5..... version 4.03 was and is the best one for the excalibur. my reasoning? after 4.03 the program doesn't run in the background. It shows up in task managers and is easly closed which defeats the purpose of having the program. It also takes up more memory and is even more laggy then version 5. if you can find a version 4.03 i highly recommend you try it.

o2 zest downgrade from wm6.5

I have ran the original o2 formware program and it will not program the zest. The zest firmware update utility keeps telling me "check the language is the same as ..."
So how do you downgrade the o2 zest to original firmware after running wm6.5 ...?
Help needed please.

Hi,
When you get this message, you should find a file called "tmp_rom.abi" in the same directory as the firmware update utility (you need to Show Hidden Files first - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tips/hiddenfiles.mspx).
Before clicking "OK" on that message, copy tmp_rom.abi to another folder. When finished, close the update utility. Rename "tmp_rom.abi" to "GM5_WWE_Zest.abi" and copy to your SD Card. Then flash as you did the WM6.5 one (Navpad Down + Reset).
Just to say thankyou for your response , my zest is back to original op sys.
Regards
Bob

Make sure on the SD Card the file is called GM5_WM61Downgrade.abi or something like that. It has to start with GM5_ and end with .abi
done a few before, but for some reason, just never works with the file i've ripped/extracted from the update program. it's there, named correctly. I'm absolutely puzzled

make sure the abi file is not hidden. Sometimes the bootloader doesn't see hidden files.
i followed the instructions not to hide the files on my pc. that wht you mean? (your being really helpfull by the way thankyou)

no problems do you have more than one abi file on your storage card? If so ensure there is only the 6.1 one on there.
nope, just the one .abi file. i've renamed it a couple of times too (but still following the GM5_xyz.abi nomenclature). its insane in the membrane lol, i see a few other users here have done it....why not me? i feel like a leper lol

Lol. Keep trying, if you upgraded to WM6.5 this way, you will be able to downgrade wo WM6.1
Right-click on the ABI file, go to "Properties" and ensure "Hidden" is unticked.
well god damn!! you have the patience of a saint for dealing with stupid people....sir i salute you lol.... it was hidden in the file properties....i feel......like a retard lol. Thanks very much man, i just wasn't having any luck with custom roms, tried a few of yours but all intermittently froze. I'll try this today, and if still no joy, gonna get a tg01 tomorrow and sell this to CEX just to get rid of it. Thanks once again!!!

question about installing something

I tried to install the FM radio cab onto my phone, but when I go to run the setu up, I get an error message saying "there is no application associated with (this file), run the application first, then open the file from within the application.
What should I do?
Thanks!!
What kind of file is it? .cab or .exe? If it's a .exe then run it from you're computer. Make sure you got active sync working
thanks for respoinding
It's a cab file.

.cab files need to be moved to the phone (best to make a folder on the SD card just for that), and run from there.
hi
I tried that, but when I try to run the file on the phone, I get that message. It won't work! If it helps, I'm trying to use one linked to on the thread titled "htc does have an fm radio". I'd really like to get this working!
Thanks!
hmmm
Now when I click on the setup file, it tries to open the Opera browser, but all I get is a blank page and nothing happens!

Do other .cab files behave this way when you try to run them on your phone? It sounds like the one you downloaded might be corrupted..? Your phone should run it directly with no problem as long as the file extension is still ".cab"
I would try a soft-reset, and then try the copy I have attached here instead of the one you first grabbed (it's the same file, but I know this copy works ok). You'll just have to unzip it and then move the cab to your phone.
hey
THANK YOU! The file you linked worked perfectly! Thank you again.... I really appreciate it. So gratifying to finally have it work. I still miss my MDA and Wing for many reasons, but I'm feeling a little better about the TP2...

Glad to help
I had a wizard (which I think was the same phone as the MDA), and nothing will take the special place it will always have in my heart. However, the TP2 does a damn good job of carrying that torch
yep
The Wizard is the MDA... it was my first touch screen/windows PDA... I'll never forget how excited I was to get it... I miss the nav pad a lot though.... and they removed the IR port (not that I used it) and the camera flash (not that it was very effective)... I don't think new phones should have features removed that their predecessors had... I had to fight Tmo to get a decent price on my TP2 (and I was still raped, and I'd been with them for 10 years) and then the touch screen stopped working completely after a few weeks... Never had that problem with the Wizard (MDA) or Herald (Wing) and I had them for years.... that combined with no nav pad and NO TAB KEY haven't made me fall in love with this device!
