Is there anyway i can install .cab files on the hd7 this is frustrating because i wanted to watch mkv rips that i have on my pc and so i wanted to install the coreplayer that worked so well on the hd2 but it's in .cab file but this phone doesn't let me use activesync so i can use explorer and move and copy files into the phone and install it like i did with windows mobile 6.5.
I don't like zune (because it only allows audio and video to be transferred not apps or games) is there any other software for the wm7 i can use for sync my hd7?
OMG i regret buying this phone already i swear i am going to smash it if i can't install coreplayer.
You can't install Coreplayer or any other WM6.5 apps on WP7, it's a completely different OS on a completely different Kernal. Kinda like asking if you can install the WM6.5 version of Coreplayer on iPhone.
Did you not look into the device/OS before you bought it?
I actually thought it would accept .cab files since it was running on windows mobile 6.5 and its the same family.
OK so what kind of a player should i use to watch videos from mkv format ?
and is there something else except Zune so i can explore my HD7 like i did with autosync ?
Microsoft started afresh with WP7, to differentiate the 2 they called the latest installment Windows PHONE 7, whereas the older generation kept it's Windows MOBILE name, however this doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
As for your MKV's, unless Zune automatically converts them for you when transferring them to your device, there is no way of watching them other than converting to .MP4 or .WMV.
No it's only Zune so far that will sync your stuff, similar to Apples love for iTunes, however Zune is much less intrusive

Yes, I See. Your device's OS not Official ROM. Its cooked ROM from Dutty!
DivX Player from www.divx.com (requires registration but is free, pretty fast and quality is ok, the interface is VERY basic though and it only plays MPEG4-based stuff).
CorePlayer from www.coreplayer.com (costs money but works like a charm, with DCS 1.1 ROM and CorePlayer 1.1.3 I can play all XviD movies except HR-stuff without dropped frames or sync problems).
PocketTV from www.pockettv.com (requires registration but "classic" version is free, "enterprise version is 15 bucks but supports more advanced options and acceleration. only works with MPEG/MPEG2 but is really fast and quite a high quality.)
Personally I just use CorePlayer 1.1.3 for now and I will surely upgrade to 1.2 once it arrives.
is it possible to still use the flashvideobundle with coreplayer?

Try to install mine version. Just came back from the GYM and I played music for 3 hours with TCMP.
I'm using Alex's UltraClean WM6.1 Beta2 and I have no problem installing and using TCMP 0.72. Played about 3-4 hours of music on it now, and tested a few videos.
Nope, even that one doesn't work on the official build of 6.1 I have.
"Unexpected program failure. Please send "crash.txt" to the developers. Program will now exit."
Apparantly it works on some of the WM6.1 ROMs and not on others. It doesnt on DCS v1.3, that I can confirm. Irritating to lack proper .flv support (which is really the most important for me personally). CorePlayer, DivX Player and whatnot is totaly irrelevant, because its the youtube streaming abilities that I find most fun. Streaming via StreamingMedia just sucks compared to TCPMP, also it only work over GPRS/EDGE/3G.
CorePlayer 1.1.3 is the best choice for insteading of TCPMP on my device with WM 6.1.
Thanks all!
For Use with youtube
I've found that TCPMP does not work on my particular 6.1 ROM. Try using http://tinytube.net instead of youtube. Unfortunately the interface and selection aren't as robust as youtube, but it pulls streams from multiple sources (google, yahoo, myspace, etc) and has a decent search engine. All streams end up going through the Streaming Media app.

The rom U use , the Dutty 6.1 beta is based on a older build that can use older radio and TCMP works.
The later builds cant use TCMP and must have any of the the newer radio.

i need to get some application like TCPMP, in TCPMP i can turn off screen and still rewind song in pocket do you know something what have that function and run on official HTC wm6.1 rom??
TCPMP is a great player. I have it working in a WM6.1 19701 Build. Sometimes it takes a little finesse to get it working. I've added the correct cabs to this reply.
Make sure you do the following:
Put both files in the same place (either on the storage card or in main memory). I put them both on the storage card.
After you install each cab file, do a soft reset. (Make sure you remove any previous version before adding either cab).
Make sure you are going to the correct URL - www.youtube.com/?nomobile=1
It should work for you. It's the best player out there.
Oh, I almost forgot. I did have to install NET CF3.5 on one of my devices before it worked. I'm not sure if it was coincidence or necessary.
Also make sure that "flash video" is selected in Options/Settings/Select Page/File Associations in TCPMP.
or you can use this recompiled version of tcpmp

@ XtreMe_G: Thanks. That one works fine on the official HTC 6.1
smartphone tcpmp i downloaded from here crashes on wm6.1 on q9c
VGA is just a scaled version of the QVGA.
WVGA is an iPod-like Look & Feel. My apologies
To install, unpack in your "Program Files/Audible/Skins" path.
Enjoy!
Excellent! Now my Xperia looks as it should with Audible.
Nice skin, but do you guys use the Audible player?
I like what you have done, and I know this is a little OT, but I could never get that prog to work. I tried it multiple times on a Wizard, and then on my Tilt. I would always have trouble accessing the library, or it would tell me that I had no connection, when I could surf or email fine. When their support people wanted me to wipe (as in hard reset) my phone to troubleshoot, I gave up on the mobile app. I was so happy when I found Kinoma that I bought it just for the Audible support. I usually put books on my Zune, but I stream the morning paper every day to my Tilt.
Does anyone have a skin for Audible Player that will show correctly on the Treo Pro?
Thanks in Advance!
Green Skin for WVGA (480x800)
Put everything from the zip file into /Program Files/Audible/Skins. Screen shot attached. Enjoy.
Thanks Theory! Nice, clean skin.
Long timo ago till this threat was opened, but:
I use a HTC HD2 with WVGA resolution.
I copied your files to the destined folder. I am able to choose f.e. the ipod skin. But this is huge: I only can see the upper left quarter of the skin!!!
Has anyone an idea why this happens?
The original green skin is ugly and seems also not the right resolution.
Thanks for your answer!
Ps: I installed audible player at the storage card. May this be the problem?
I have the same problem like Prisonierung.
I'm using a HD2 and the AudiblePlayer is installed to the storagecard.
Is there a solution?
Audible Player For Htc Hd2?
after upgrading from my trusty old nokia e65 to the hd2, i haven't even bothered getting the audible player. while the s60 version would play format 4 content, i cant find anytjing for windows mobile that dors better than format 3.
am i missing something, or has audible still not released a good player for the hd2 yet?

You need to install the format 3 version first, then audible manager asks you to update. After this you can play all formats.
Hey gus,
i got a problem with the resolution, no matter which skin i choose... they all look pretty similiar, i just can see the upper right corner.
I'll attach a picture to show you what i mean.
Since a few ROMs ago two things happens that are just so annoying:
- Windows media player stops playing when you switch to another app. There is no way to stream something and at the same time go and open a page or something else.
- No way to have both windows media player and audio manager running at the same time.
I couldn't find a way to tweak this. Could please someone put some light on this?
These didn't happened until a few months ago, but every single ROM I install have this same behaviour.
I use PC Ultimate V16 WWE ROM.
regards
Emerson
memory?
I think this could easily be a memory issue. I'm not 100% sure, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong. It seems like WMP takes up a lot of RAM, especially if you are streaming, so I don't think it can handle running some apps at the same time. I have noticed mine do the same thing. Maybe someone has a fix for this, but I have not heard of one.
Hi echofloripa,
My name is Ron, and I’m part of the Windows Outreach Team. I thought I’d stop in and try to help out with your Windows Media Player Question.
I did some checking and couldn’t find a setting that might cause this, so I’d suggest that you uninstall and reinstall a clean copy of Windows Media Player.
You can download the latest version of Windows Media Player here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/11/default.aspx
If your problem persists, let me know and I’ll keep looking for a workaround. At that point, it may indeed be a memory-related issue.
Cheers,
Ron

The page you sent doesn't have any windows mobile version to install.
I don't believe it is a memory problem. When I had a Hermes, with less memory, I had never had this issue of pausing the windows media player when going into another app. A detail is that playing music doesn't stop, just when it's a video, streaming of local.
Hi! I am new to this forums and i am new in windows mobile. Before i had a symbian phone so i was very familiar with symbian and now with windows mobile i am completly lost. I need help regarding avdio and video files. I have put a music files on a 8 gb card, i created folder MUSIC. Now if i want to play that files i have to use file explorer and search for that file and then play it. How can i acces it from built in avdio player? or how can i use it as a ring tone? I dont want to put it on phone memory so is it any way to play it from SD card? I also have a hard time installing anything, i dont know how. Does it ask you on which memory to put aplications on before installing? Symbian was so easy... But anyway i like this phone And one more thing, can i create folder and put games and other aplications, avdio/video files on just like in symbian?
Thanks for all your help, i know it is a long post, but i have many more questions for you

I had also multiple Symbian S60 phones but now i have my 4th Win Mobile device and i dont want to go back to Symbian, its to buggie and to slow (at least the last time i had one).
Even the desktop software from Nokia is very slow.
I will try to help you love your WM6.1 device!!
To play videofiles (I) use CorePlayer: http://coreplayer.com/
For converting your videos to play them on your TD2 (I) use PocketDivxEncoder: http://www.pocketdivxencoder.net/EN_index.htm
You can put audio and video files on your storagecard, Windows Media Player can search your device (through Library) and then you dont need to look them up throught File Explorer, WMP cannot play avi and divx, use CorePlayer.
With CorePlayer you can search your device, next time you want to open a new video or song it will open in the same location.
If you want the album cover to be displayed in Windows Media Player and/or the TouchFlo3d player, copy the cover (jpg) to the folder where the album is en rename it to folder.jpg (make it a square picture).
Every time you add new songs you will need WMP to search your device again otherwise you can only play then over File Explorer.
To use your audio files for ringtones you need to put them on your device in My Documents\My Ringtones\ or you need a registrysetting.
If you use the registry setting your media player wil also find all ringtones, maybe you like it, i don't.
But how can i install core player and other apps and games? Do i have to put files in specific folder or just on a sd card and then delete the files? and does it ask you where to install it? phone or sd? I am really completly lost it was really easy on symbian devices but on winmo it seems hard, but then again i might be wrong. I am waiting for a official 6.5 winmo from HTC, hope it arrives soon and i hope that app"s and games will be compatible with older winmo"s. Will you be able to create folders on winmo 6.5? For now i dont want to "pimp" my phone too much cause i will have to reinstall everything later, i just want to get familliar with installing games, apps, themes...
Does the phone alarm ring when the phone is off? It didn"t in the morning... Is there a setting to make it work?

It's easy as long as you know what to do!
When you download apps for your phone, they will usually in be a .cab file. You just copy this file to your SD card, then use the phones file explorer to find and click it.
It will then probably warn you about the app not being certified, it's up to you if you want to trust the source you downloaded from.
After that, you will be asked if you want to install on card or phone memory.
The original .cab file can be deleted from the SD card after the installation is complete.

Wrong topic, this one is about Audio and Video files as far as i have read.
But to answer your question, No, when the phone is off, it's off and it stays off until you turn it on.
Hi every one i hope you guys could help with my hd7, i just got it and very happy with it but there is some stuff i dont understand like for example why i cant not stream online radio like on my hd2 if is a windows device and its thru windows media player. no flash, i feel like windows 6.5 could do more and after using android on the hd2 im cosidering going in to a tmobile g2. but i love windows more than android because of the online streaming, is that something they working on or should i go back to hd2. thanks
You could get a Zune pass and stream music not free though but very good

I found several apps that will stream music, you can try "iheartradio" app. It has you select a region and has local stations (a bit behind the actual broadcast if you listen to both simultaneously) and there are specialty stations. There is also "Slacker" I like "iheartradio" a bit more though.
