I know that someone already posted files for removing keys from registry but that method could be useful too.
So, when you're trying to reinstall hotfix it normally says "Incorrect version". Click OK, and then go in file explorer to "My device" main folder. There should be file called Install.cab - this is the actual hotfix. And by clicking it you should be able to install it even if *.exe file said "Incorrect version"
You can apply that trick to other hotfixes too.

i was installing the .cab for the intellidialer , i got the following error message
the file windows\iacontacts.dll is in use or in rom.if the file is not in rom, pls close the application using the file.
i was sure that no application is opened then i did hard rest the installation continued succssesfuly but i got the same error message when i tried to install the cab file to upgrade photo contact to version 1.20
how can i solve this problem
find the dll file and rename it to say iacontacts.dll.bak and try to install the app... whenever u get that error message just rename the dll file that is in use and you're good to go
good luck
thanks very much
you are welcome
For a lot of program's i don't need a desktop to setup my PDA. But some programs like .net from microsoft, oziexplorer, citrix, resco-fileexplorer can only be installed from a windows-PC.
is there a way to extract or keep-from-a-temporary-space the .cab file that must be somewhere during the install.
wouldn't it be nice to totally rebuild your system with one button after flashing/testing a new ROM or after a empty-battery situation on holiday.
Strangely enough, this is exactly what I do. I stick to cab downloads where possible (keeping them on the SD) but there are ways to extract the cabs from the installer where there isn't one available. Theres a couple of ways you can:
1. Sometimes the installler is built on a zip and you can just open the exe in winzip. If you have winzip shell extensions installed you get an "open in winzip" option on the right-click menu.
2. If that doesn't work, run up the installer and proceed the the part where it copies it to the phone. There are two places you can find the cab. The first is on your PC in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\. Sort by date to find the most recent file. The other place is on the phone itself...the installer actually copies the cab to the phone the installs it. I think you can find the cab in \Windows\AppMgr but it's been a while and that may be wrong.
some apps will put their cab on m$ activesync dir.
have u try sprite backup to backup ur system including storage.
Guy's,
thanks for your info. Got it complete in cab files on my storagecard now. Some i found in programfiles/activesync on the desktop. Sometimes it wasn't clear which cab file to use, so i started the install from the desktop. Then on the PDA when the question comes about where to install, then i started fileexplorer to see where the temporary cab file is. They all where in windows/appmgr/install.
thx,

Hey I am new, and I am wondering how do you install cab files? I downloaded the midlet manager and i extracted it on my pc, and i see a bunch of files but none of them are cab files,they are all unidentified,can some one help me please? much appreciated
thanks in advanced
Just copy and paste the zipped cabfile in your phone anywhere through Activesync,preferably 'My documents' folder and execute it there in the phone,it'll run and install all by itself.
Cheers!
when I extract the file,I dont see any cab files, So i just put the whole folder in my phone,I try clicking on the files and they wont open,I just get a message sayin
"There is no application associated with "00CAB10A",run application first then open this file from within the application
ok, for 'Midlet' here's how you do it as per the post in Midlet Manager by risidoro:-
------- HOW TO INSTALL ------------
- Download Risidoro's Intent MIDlet Manager version 11.1.7.1023
- extract the cab (inside the archive) somewhere in your PC (e.g. Desktop)
- copy to somewhere in your PocketPC (e.g. \storage card)
- in your PocketPC, navigate with File Manager to the cab and tap on it to install
- when asked, choose to install in the Device (and NOT in Storage Card!)
- reboot when asked
or read the thread :-

You are NOT supposed to unpack the CAB!!!
You must copy the cab (Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_Manager_11.1.7.1023.cab) found inside the zip file from the thread that zabardast linked to your device and simple run it (one click via File Explorer or double-click with Total Commander)
as simple as that...
thank you so much
I got it installed
ok I have a htc droid eris and I can't find the file manager on my phone to get to the files on the sdcard. so I downloaded a file manager app and when I click on the .cab file it does not just install it asks what I want to do open with kind of thing. like browser and a bunch more things I have tried most of them and nothing is working. Is there something else I need to install a .cab file with this phone or wtf is my dumb butt doing wrong to not be able to install it.
Install .cab files to unlock sd card.
Hi, think ive messed up here... can someone help or confirm my balls up!
Ive been following this tutorial to flash my hd2 with an updatable Win.7 rom;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236027
Charging ahead, installed, had a few probs along the way but worked through them... got it installed and working!
Then, moving onto step two of my plan, a dual boot of Android from sd card... :S Do you know whats coming? After re-reading the install instructions I noticed the 'Unlock SDCard' a few steps before installing the rom. :S I have now learnt that Windows mobile 7 locks the sd card to the device and is un-usable in anything else, having already messed up an 8gb and a 16gb...!
Could anyone please tell me if it is possible to 'somehow' install the .cab files to unlock the sd card...? or anyone know of a way to decrypt the sd card?
"THE SD CARD IS UN-READABLE IN MY PC AND PHONE WITH WM6.5 STOCK ROM"
If I re-install the rom from the 'back to the future' tutorial (link above), the storage is available for use on the hd2, but still cannot be seen by my PC... making it hard to install .cab file or anything else!
Both my sd cards have effectivly been high-jacked by microsoft...!
Please help me liberate my GB's...!

Extract the zip in this folder into \Windows on your device, and Run QuickMenu.exe (If you want the English version).

Heres the cab file to make things easier if you need to install it again.
Related question: installing the cab (or unzipping the files and running the exe) doesnt seem to replace the standard start menu. any idea why? i can see the quickmenu.exe and quickmenu.lnk files in \windows, but i can only get quickmenu to pop up by running them.
thanks!

Click quickmenu.exe while quickmenu is open click Quickmenu>options check for it to replace the standard start menu and to run at startup.
Has anyone installed new Certificates (Root Certs, CA certs, Own certs) on to a Diamond? When I try run the SpAddCert application from MS it gies me an error.
"The file SpAddCert.exe cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
This is the file I got from...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/915840/en-us
Any help appreciated.
Why are you trying to use SPaddcert? thats for smartphones/WMStandard.
You have a WM Professional device. just copy the cer file to the device and then open it in file manager.
It doesn't matter where you copy it to, just go into file manager, find the folder and then tap on the file.
you'll then get the prompts to install it.
The only normal reason this wouldn't work is if you have a network branded device and some bastard at the network decided to disable this part of the OS.
I spent the bigger part of a full day (weekend) trying to get my Diamond to connect to my company's Exchange-server.
What I ended up doing was very simple.
I used my PC with IE8 and went to our Outlook-Web-Access-page
There i got "The security certificate presented by this website was not issued by a trusted certificate authority" and then "Continue..."
Once certificate is used, I clicked on the "Certificate"-icon in the address-bar and "View certificates"
In "Details" I clicked "Copy to file" and chose the "PKCS #7" INCLUDING "certification path".
The resulting file was copied to my Diamond, and just direct-click in the "File Manager" and, voila ! Exchange-connectivity was in perfect condition.
