Hi chainfire,i faced the error too...
I waited to the next day and it worked

Perhaps you might have got a better response posting directly in @bitpushr thread?

Still not working for me, attaching large files ...

Try again, you should be good up to 20MB.

While it no longer immediately gives an error when I press the upload button, after the entire file has been transmitted, the status bar shows "Waiting for forum.xda-dev..." forever, and the file is not actually attached to the post (the file I'm testing with is 12mb, btw).

My situation is a little different. After I click on "Manage Attachments" that. Appeared slightly greyed out or faded I am taken to where I am suppose to click on "Choose File" nothing happens?

perhaps the connection that youve got

Nope, no way that could be it. Besides it has worked for me in the past.

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....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388248&page=2
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

Unable to download attachments ???

I suspect that vBulletin does not support the Download manager.
Sorry, you'll have to do it the old fassion way.
No attachment on this site is bigger 8MB anyway.

I was actually referring to firefox's builtin download manager, but before I replied I tried disabling the external download manager and let the browser handle it alone. Before this I would just hit cancel when the external manager kicked in and thought the I would get the same reaction from the browser. Something got lost in passing the argument to the browser. After disabling the manager, firefox downloaded just fine.
Well, everything is fine with the world now. Something so simple ... geeez, and I call my self a computer geek?
Just as an additional info, accelerators like IDM will work fine but DAP wont parse the php correctly.
It happened to me before, what i found was that it installed plugins in firefox so i disabled those and it workes fine now
I'm getting the same problem, but I don't use a download manager. I've tried Firefox and IE7 (both under Windows XP) and both see the link as a 1x1 Gif Image.
I've never come across this before so any assistance would be most welcome.
Thank you
Get Chrome
I have downloaded and installed Chrome, but I still get the same result, the attachment is seen as a Gif.
I am trying to download "lokiwiz03a.zip" from THIS link. Is there an alternative source for this without having to trawl through the various File sharing sites who could have added who knows what to the package?
Again, thank you for the help.

if its a .zip, then im assuming you use winrar to open it?
If this is true, then download the file to the desktop, then right click it and select "Open With..."
Look around for "Winrar" and then select it, Then make sure "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file."
I hope i helped you, if not... Send me a PM (For faster communication)
I think you can't download the file because the file does not exist anymore. I also tried to download lokiwiz with the very same result. The 1x1 Pixel is the only thing you get. Maybe the link is just dead or the file has been moved...
EDIT; the download link doesn't even work....
thank you
That was realy helpful, thanx.
Maybe you know where I can download some ROMs too.
I need an english (or german) ROM for a Qtec 9100. I've tried the links on this site but these links seem to be dead (I allready posted that in another thread).
Maybe you can help me out here too.

I tried Chrome, IE 7, IE 8, IE 8 x64, lynx and links (Vista x64 and Linux) and always a blank page.
Maybe we could have a better page, like this file does not exist anymore or something like that...

HELP!!!!!!

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!

Problems installing GAssist on my Galaxy Watch

Hello all
Thanks for reading
I just got a new Samsung Watch and I tried to install the GAssist as per the instructions.
I was able to create a secrets.json file but was unable to plug my phone into my laptop because it says it is not recognized and after spending hours with drivers etc I just emailed the file to my phone.
I went to the GAssist App and when it asks for the JSON file it says that it is NOT VALID
I ran it through a checker online and it said that it was indeed a valid file!
I can't find a folder on my phone called credentials so that is basically where I am right now.
Any help would be appreciated!!
Mike
I was able to get it to work.
I went through the process of creating the json file on my phone's chrome and that was recognized.
The only problem is that there is quite a delay from the double button push to when the listen button appears.
Love the app otherwise!
