Hi @all,
I've donwloaded the manila kitchen and also the current release of the manila package.
Now I want to write a new Tab and have some big problems with that. I hope you can help.
1st I've thought about looking into existing code (eg Twitter Tab). There I've my first problem. They use a script file called machine_status_svc, CLuaTweetList_svc and CLuaTweetEdit_svc (used in "5518259a_manila" or "twitterutil.luac"). They also use a function called CLuaTweetList_Instance() and I think which is included in CLuaTweetList_svc.
Now my problem: I can't find these files. Can anybody help?
2nd I've check the registry on my mobile and found the key HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HTCService. There are some dll files registered. I think they will work as background service during the manila is running. Now I want to write this kind of service too.
So does anybody know how these dll file have to be implemented? which procedures/functions are required and which aparameters etc?
I still have som other questions, but maybe I can solve them if I've got a reply to these at first.
I'm sorry but I don't find anything in the web about there questions.
I hope for your help! - Thanks!
Does maybe anybody know if HTC is providing these information?
If yes does anybody maybe also know a direct contact address (e-Mail) to get it?
Thanks :'(

Hi
I've recently upgraded to TMOB 1.72 but thanks to DCS's guide, now managed to install the new o2 rom released this week.
However, if i now try to install the new apps such as Fonix Voice ial, it comes up with a message saying incorrect rom version.
Can anyone suggest anything? I've looked but although some people have had the same problem, noone seems to have put forward any solutions.
Cheers
Anthony
Have you done a restore since upgrading?
No I haven't done any restoring afterwards. I went from 1.72 tmobile straight ahead with the new o2 version, after going through your Country ID problem post.
I've looked at the two setup files in the fonix2.0UK0527_O2Limit_20040901.sa.cab from C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\HTC Apps and found the same O2 vs CDL in both files, when viewed in a hex editor. However I'm now stuck on finding a way to update or remake the cab file to try again. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this or if they had another plan? would it just be easier to downgrade to the official 1.66 o2 and then upgrade again? Also how do I check my version of Bootloader?
Many thanks
Anthony

What operator ID value did you use for the upgrade? Also, can you tell me what values are in your registry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM1.
My DeviceData file said CDL so I changed the .nbf file from o2 to that. i have got slightly further now in that the application tries to install but when it does, it says it cannot the various dll's etc. I think its a prob with the cab file generation, and i cannot find a program that allows me to add/replace the contents of the cab file.
Registry settings are
MSYSTEM - 1.72.181
MSYSTEM1 - O2_UK.
Thanks for your help.
OK, thanks for the info.
Just to update you...
I solved it in the end. I was having trouble with the .cab file because it was compressing itself rather than staying in its usual state. After changing the O2 setting to CDL in the settings files within the cab, and recreating the cab file before sticking it on the phone, it worked fine.
Cheers

Please Post modified cab
Could you please post your modified cab?
I am having the same issue trying to install Fonix VoiceDial on the T-Mobile Final 1.72 Rom.
Thanks.
oops, I think i deleted it. I don't have access to it here, but I'll redo it tonight and send it tomorrow.
Cheers
Anthony
I'm having a problem opening the Fonix CAB file. It seems to be different from other cab files. Can you please post the modified one?
Thanks,
Sorry I forgot to redo it, I'll try my best to do so tonight and then I'll post it tomorrow morning.
Cheers

I also noticed this extensive version checking 'feature'.
I managed to solve it myself for KSE True FAX 2.0
I simply replaced the new/added (aparently O2 specific) setup dll's with an older version.
For the ZIP application I think the T-Mobile supplied version works for all other operators as well
I would like to 'fix' the Fonix app too, but I am still stuck on the 'weird' CAB file . . . .Anyone who can get me this in a 'normal' cab format?
Edit: BTW I added a Dutch language Fax Coverpage as well

Good work edsub. I wanted to look at this, but unfortunately my WinCE Cab Manager trial has expired (current version and previous version) and $149 is a bit steep.
yw, but the Fonix thing is still anoying me . . .Google didnt help either . . .
@edsub nice work
Just out of curiosity where did you get the older version of setup from?
@dcs I know, my WinCE Cab manager has only 8 trial left .for professional work 149 is a reasonable price, but for simple users like me :roll:
maybe they should give us one for free, for promoting their tool on this forum

I couldn't agree more I am actually tempted to buy it though. I installed the newest version and once I used up the 15 executions, I found the previous version somewhere and installed that and that gives you 20 edits - and now I've used those up too Maybe I will email them.
Damn, and I remembered to bring it today as well.
Oh well, all's well that ends well.
Cheers

I used the setup dlls from one of the cab's originally deployed on a T-Mobile ROM. I removed the setup dll that has 'O2' in its name.
Apparantly it's one of those new setup dll's that does the version check.
BTW In TrueFax I added a Dutch language coverpage
@Anton: Could you please provide the info on how you managed the Fonix cab to get installed.
I am trying to make is for general use and not just to change some version/operator name in the cab-file (which BTW is of a different type that usually)
Hi,
I'm currently trying to change the word completion feature on my XDA2 (English ROM) to German. Could someone with a German ROM post his mssp2_de.lex file?
The idea is to change the Spell Check key in the registry and see if this would work...
Oh, and another request: Could someone post all the themes that are included by default on a WM2003SE device? (I'm looking for a landscape version of the 'default' theme from WM2003).
Thanks very much,
softworkz
i know of a project where they did the same but
the lex only do dictionary in word not in mails and sms thats from somewhere else
that that was required was taking the
mssp2_XX.lex file from a pc with word97 (not sure why it had to be 97)
copying it to the pda and overwriting the
mssp2_en.lex file there
though some people have been reporting it imposible after 2003 or something
here is the reg to the dic name and location btw
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speel Check\Main_Dict
Thanks for posting the key (I already knew it, but I wanted to test it first).
I don't think, it's possible to overwrite this file because it seems to be a ROM file. But chances are good that copying another file to the \windows folder and changing the regsetting could work.
Anyone could post the German mssp2_de.lex file from his PDA?
Thanks very much,
softworkz

Thanks.

I suppose that you mean O2 Active UI, yesits work but very slow and with many bugs. Of course , it looks nice but not work quite well. I have tryed the WM2003 version and it does not work, then I have tryed the WM5 version from Wizzard and it worked but with many bugs, universal version works too but since it's made for VGA mode you see onli 1/4 from the UI so it is unusable.If someone tweak ActiveUI from wizard it will work fine in BA
I have never supposed there is anyone using it
Does anybody know in what cab the user interface of the orange branded devices is? I downloaded the orange extended rom for the wizard, but i couldn't find anything. I think the orange UI could be nice.
hello, where can i download the WM2005 version of O2 Active UI? thanks.
i tried using search but no luck.
please please... give me the Active UI for Windows Mobile 2005.
search in the extracted extended roms of other WM5 devices (wizard) on the ftp
sorry, i'm currently on the wizard folder but i cant seem to locate it.
can you direct me to the exact folder name as well as the file name that i should download.
thanks, i'm kinda being desperate to have it. i hope you great people could help me.
anybody help me please...
Here are the extended roms rolder in ftp, download any of the O2 rar files extract it to a folder an in the extracted folder search for a file signed_Prodigy_o2AUI4_build26.cab or any cab containing o2AUI in the name
geez thanx a lot... very helpful! thanx mate!
This UI sounds very interesting. Can anyone grab a screenshot of this UI and tell me what's so interesting about it?
I know you this is the hermes forum, but you guys seem to have a bit more knowledge for the package side of life. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Check out this thread, what we are trying to do is get the mxip file made to automatically create the folder MMS under mail app for WM6.

Thanks in advance. Hopefully this will be useful for you guys too.
After some dinkin' around, I finally got it to work on my hermes. It's a package for cooking only, sorry no cab at this time but it's not hard to make into a cab. I fixed it for my own use, which means it's english and for 240x320 screens only.

The zip file has a cab in it, just haven't try it
Hi, everyone! I´m still working on a Wizard (don´t want to touch my Hermes, yet). I´m pretty advanced... but
I dump the [latest] original cingular WM5. I rebuilt it with office 2007 and realize that the original shortcuts are still there. Of course, they are both useless (as I have new names for the apps) and annoying (because I can´t remove them before compiling).
This is the whole point: Those shortcuts are not coming from neither an xml update for the XIP nor an initflashfiles.txt
HOW ON EARTH DO I REMOVE THEM. I can´t find what is creating and copying those shortcuts
Are they embedded in the OS.nb file? If so, how do I take that file apart?
Any help is very much appreciated!
..provxml, m8..
Nope, had checked already
*.mopvxml, etc had been checked.
But... what did you mean by m8?.
BTW: I will check inside os.nb now, but please give me fresh ideas
You may also want to check for a file called initflashfiles.dat. That contains a lot of shortcut information as well. Especially for apps that are default for that particular ROM. It should be found in the OEM\OEM_LANG_* folder in the kitchen. The (*) is the locale number. For example, a WWE ROM would have the folder as OEM_LANG_0409.
Yep, solved (initflashfiles.dat)
Hey, thanks! You´re FAST!
I was about to post it. But thanks, you could have saved me hours
Anyways. If anyone ever reads this thread, remember: scavenging os.nb(a) isn´t that great. An automated kitchen does it all (Hypercore in this case).
I also found somebody claiming that certain shortcut came from a dll. Just keep as a sidenote.
Cheers!
