Whenever I try to instal Cabs file, it give error...........The file cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.........
These same cabs file were working fine till yesterday. Dont know what could have gone wrong. (Cingular 8125). I tried to browse to Extended ROM folder in Total Commander....but didnt delete any file there. However, when i again try to browse the Extended wrong, it shows many file names as garbage.
Otherwise my WIZARD is working fine. Activesync Apps are getting installed on my Wizard
Can someone guide me how i can get cabs files working again?
Error in Cabs Installation
Infact all the folders in 'Extended Rom' in Total Commander show names as junk characters. However, all file names are Ok.
So what are you trying to install and you say about the ext_rom!!! What file you trying to do?
Cabs Inst not working
I was just playing around and wanted to check if i can add new apps to Ext_ROM. I dont think i did any damage to it. But now i see that Cabs on my phone are not getting installed, and there are many folders in EXT_ROM, with junk names.

Did you cook your own Ext_rom??? Well if you did that means that it has been got damaged some how! I would flash it again and if you have the same problems i would go back to a pre cooked ext-rom and then try again!
I have loaded new ext rom. However, error still appears whenever I click to open a .cab file.
Any suggestions what I can do?
Hi guys,
If I want to download software for the tilt, do I do that directly into the tilt or I have to do it first into my laptop?
Most software you can just download onto the Tilt. Cabs can be installed simply by clicking on them in File Explorer or Total Commander or whatever you are using to look at the file system. RAR files will need to be uncompressed first. I would suggest dumping that silly Zip program that comes on the Tilt (I only had trouble with it) and just going to rarlabs.com to get PocketRAR since it's free and works really well.
Edit: Oh, ROMs are a different story. Since you aren't sure about how to install basic programs, I strongly suggest you avoid ROMs altogether for the time being. Do some reading through the stickies if you think you might want to look into ROM flashing.

Its a known issue and it doesn't matter what radio you are using. There is a fix, but it takes longer and is more of a hassle. First I don't know if you have signed up at MyTomTom.com yet or not, but you have to because the version that does work is not English speaking voices, so you will have to download an English voice. Go to the link in my signature under Programs, its called "Working TomTom", download it and install it to the device. If you need help getting the voices set up just let me know and I will walk you through it.
TYKDKobes finally got that installed. hopefully its better then the other navigation softwares I've tried so far.
Thanks will try this, finally got Nav 5 installed, but would like version 6 for newer maps. Sorry to be a bit thick, but do you mean to install the file I downloaded onto my device and the try to install Nav 6?

That CAB is TomTom Navigator 6. So just install it from your device.
Got it working, downloaded voices, Thanks heaps for you help!
In my signature is a link for all the free TomTom voices instead of trying to find them all. Just download the Zip file and extract it to your computer. You will need to REPLACE your current "voices" folder with this one. For instance my TomTom is installed on my Device, under Programs, Navigation, and in that folder you will see another folder called "voices" that is where TomTom stores its voices. All you are doing is taking the one you downloaded and replacing it with the old one. **this will replace any current downloaded voices**
"the zip file is located under cabs"
will install and test the application.
thanks

Hi, can you help me, I'm trying to install Tomtom 6 to my HTC cruise. I keep getting the message to update my ROM, I tried to follow the advice in this thread, but have failed. Can you walk me through it? Cheers
what is the speed of tomtom like on your device mate? mine is painful, screen refreshes every 1.5 seconds, whereas i get 15fps on another sat nav program (which actually holds reception better than tomtom too!)
TomTom support were helpful, told me to hard reset and try again. I think its a software issue with 6.032.
The other sat nav programs arem much more graphic intensive too, so i doubt its the graphics drivers.

Which version of TomTom did you download and install. Usually that error appears when you download the TomTomWWE(World Wide English). The one you need to download and install if you get that error is the Working TomTom CAB which can be found in my signature under CABS, Programs. Should work then.
how do I install the program from you're cab to my HTC cruise? I'm a bit of a novice at this, sorry.
Download the cab file to your computer, and copy it to your Device or Storage Card. Remember where you place the cab file because you will need to open it from you Phone using File Explorer. Now navigate to the file and click on it. It will automatically start to install, usually it will ask you to install to the Device or Storage Card, but this CAB will just install to the Device.
when I do this I get a message 'there is no application associated with..' run the application first, I can't get the tomtom application off my CD? sorry for being such a pain. Thanks for you're help.

Check your GPS speed in TomTom.
Go > Change Preferences > Show GPS Status > Configure > Oter NMEA GPS receiver > GPS baud rate > COM4
The GPS baud rate should be between 4800 and 9600, if its too fast mine exhibits the jerkiness as described in your post.

Kinda confused now. What do you mean you cant get the application off your cd? If you have downloaded the cab then you dont need the CD. After moving the cab to your phone go open it, by using your phones file explorer program(single click or double click) should automatically install itself. have you made it to that point?
This is also a great resource to TomTom 6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235
I downloaded the cab files from you're signature and then had a list of files which weren't associated with any program (they had the generic icon next to them) I then put all these files on my micro SD and put in my phone. I then went to these files on my phone using file explorer and there was still a list of generic icons. Maybe I did something wrong in the download. I downloaded with winRAR and extracted all the files to a folder on my desktop. I really appreciate you helping me, thank you.

No these files dont get extracted before moving to your phone. When downloaded the file should be a blue file folder icon called a .CAB. Once downloaded take that exact file and move it to your phone. Here is the link to the cab http://www.4shared.com/file/47123724/832a2d34/Working_TomTom.html

Hey it worked, you're a dead set legend, thanks a lot mate
Hi,
Im quite new on this HTC phones.
I have a problem, I dont know how to install software on the diamond.
It opens the files in Opera but it will not start the installation.
Do I have to have any program to install programs on the phone?
I have been trying to install tomtom 7 but it will not work.
Best regards,
Martin
Look on the internet for a cab file of TT7 copy and paste this in your internall storage in the map programmables. Disconnect phone from usb go to the place where you put it and run it from there.
This should work probably.
Grtzzz
I have the same problem too, but only happened while installing .cab file.
Anyone can help? Thanks a lot.
It dosent work.
I found the file here on the forum, I did active sync with my computer, I took the file, moved it the the 4g internal storage of the phone.
I tryed to start it but nothing happens.
Thats the problem i have, it seems that my phone dont want to start the cab files.
Should I just click the file or should I do something else?
Normaly just clicking is enough.
Sorry but are you shure its a cab file its not rarred or zipped.
Have you allready installed other programs this way?
For cab files i do not use activesync to put them on the device i simply do it in storage mode.
Grtzzzz
I found the way, I had to make a soft reset. Then it worked!
if i find a cab, how exactly do I install it? i do have a registry editor, rescoe. I just got my new AT&T Fuze, and there are some issues, like hte fm radio, etc, and i see where people listed cabs for fixes, but I am a newbie and not sure how to install these.

Hi Pam, .cab or cabinet files are installed from within your device, just click on it and it will ask you where you want the files too be installed (device or storage card). You will find that there are .exe istaller files that can initiate the same process, but you have to be connected to your computer, which most of us don't like. It is an easy and clean way the install files directly in your device. I personally like to keep a lot of cab files in my storage card so that if I delete the cab or flash my device i can reinstall all my favorite applications again, no matter where I am
