Is it possible to copy/install a signature into PPC Outlook? I have looked for a reg setting but have been unable to find anything even close. Is this stored in a database on the device?
you can copy a sig from outlook and then make it a text file and save it as "sigature.txt{" then place it on your phone in location root>My Documents>UAContents and over write the one there.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the tip. Couldn't get it to work. Copied my signature over to the UA folder but it didn't make it into my emails. There was no signature.txt to overwrite.

Try first creating a sig on your device and then check and see whether the file is being created or not, and where. Then overwrite it.
I have tried searching both files and registry for the entry.
I am assuming it is stored in a database and I will need to use .net to write some code. Its only been 6 years since I stopped coding, how hard could it be?

Ok , I am trying to resign my phcanBmp.dll file to have my own images. I have used ResHack in order to change the file and make a new one but I know you need to sign the file in order for it to work...
So I have downloaded the latest BuildOS+Package 4.2b3 and it has a signapp.exe.... Problem is I cant find any information on how to use it??? I have searched google and located a sign and timestamp dll files but I am not sure if this will work with mobile applications.

ResHack will cause a dll or exe locked to sign if u edit it heavily.
Use Heaventools Resource Editor or PE Explorer instead
I bought Resource Editor and there is no way to sign the file....It shows when I edit only 6 bitmap files it says the file is no longer signed or trusted...is there a way around this

i attached the program i used to sign the htchome.dll file I patched. Do the following:
1) Put the file in the same folder as the program.
2) Go into command prompt and navigate to the folder which contains the the file (in my case C:\Documents and Settings\ScottE\Desktop\Programs\ATT Tilt\Programs\SignCode\SignCode)
3) Type "sign filename" which in my case was: sign htchome.dll
Then it should give you a message that the file was signed.
I just added a screenshot
you can also use sign tool from Microsoft SDK 2008
i tought he cannot sign the file after edit it. silly me there is also multisign tool floating in this forum based on SDK but with easy GUI.

Glad to help you man
a lot of thanks dear scotchua very useful
Maybe it is another post again about the autocomplete function, but I can't find an answer. I like this auto complete function, but the problem is that once you do a hard reset or install a new rom that all user owned words (words that were added by the system when typing) are lost. These words should be somewhere in a file, but I don't find this file.
Does anyone know what the name of this file is and where to find it?
Using File Explorer go into your Windows directory on your phone and then go to menu and click 'view all files' and you'll see a file called 'autocorrect'. That's the file you need to alter. Copy it onto your PC desktop and save a copy somewhere safe just in case you do something stupid. Now open up a copy of it on your PC and you'll see two columns - the left column is the 'typo' and the right column is what it corrects it to. You can add or change things here. I made "pcm' autocorrect to 'please call me' for example and 'tx' to 'thanks'. When you save the file do not change the format (Windows tries to save it as an Excel file- don't do that - leave it as it is which i think is txt). Now you need to replace the file on your phone however it is a locked file. Use your registry editor (I use Total Commander) and find the autocorrect file and change the settings so you can alter it. Delete the file existing on your phone and replace it with the file you just altered. Once this is done you need to soft reset and everything will work.
If you get a new phone or need to hard reset just make sure you take this file along with you and you'll keep all of your settings.
Thanks for the response, but it is not the file I am looking for. This is the file which is used when you choose the autocorrect function. This is not the file that is suggesting words while you are typing. Anyway, thank you.

Hi
I made the silly mistake of not backing up my contacts before updating ROM ( i know... very stupid)
I copied the entire device to computer prior to updating but for some reason, it didnt copy the windows folder from the PDA.
I'm guessing the contacts would have been stored somewhere in the windows folder. I was running WM6.
Have i lost the contacts...? or are they stored in a different location which would have been backed up ?
Thanks
what exactly did you copy?
the following directories and files
Application data
ConnMgr (empty)
Documents and Settings (empty)
Music
My Documents
Program Files
Pim.vol
WMPinfo
Thanks
as far as i know, if i am not wrong, the pim.vol is the one that contain your pim data especially contacts,.
but, you cant just changed it, or replace it, if i am not wrong you need to use mortscript to do that with force deleting the original one and replacing with the new one,.
i will try to look into it, just keep all your data that you have backed up,.
Thank you !
I really appreciate it.
Not yet solved
Note to admin
this topic has not yet been resolved. I simply said thank you to -G- for saying he will look into it.
Thanks

yup... pim.vol can't just be copied inside the root to be read.. it is somehow attached to your system.
BUT, if i'm not mistaken, you can use PIM Backup to load the info from the file.
try it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
btw.. i think SPB Backup can read pim.vol as well.
heyy
nope didnt work. i tried both PIM Backup and SPB Backup but neither of them accept the pim.vol as a valid file to restore from.
Actually, you should be able to just do a copy and paste of this file wherever you got it from. Try to use File Explorer (might not work). The option that works best for me with System locked files is via ActiveSync. If it doesn't work, try soft resetting and replace the file right away before the system gets a chance to access the file. Give it a shot, it might just solve your problem.
Alternatively, read this. It pretty much says the same thing that has been said so far...

Good luck to you
strange. i'll get back to you on this..
Im confused.
so will it work to just replace the pim file like egzthunder1 suggested ? Or is that going to mess up contacts completely ?
Go there.. use the emulator.. and get your contacts back.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=309351
also, please DO try to just put the pim.vol file in your root dir of your device to see if it's movable.. so other people could use that info.
I was trying to copy shellresapps.192.dll file in the windows folder to my memory card so i can use the program 'Resource Hacker' to take a look at it, because it contains the wait cursor animation and i want to try edit it. However, it seems all the system files in the windows folder can't be copied or moved or renamed AT ALL. I checked the properties and unticked the read only option as well as other option, but whenever i press ok it doesn't apply the setting, so then i clicked the 'Associate' tab and unregister any file association with the shellresapps.192.dll file and hoping that i'll be able to rename or copy the file this time, but it doesn't do anything. And since i was careless, i didn't check the file path or the file of what the file association with the .dll file is, so now it seems all the .dll files are not registered with any program that it should be.....
i'm using EnergyROM and i did this in Total Commander. Can someone please kindly look at the file association for the shellresapps.192.dll file for me?? Just go to properties and choose the "Associate" tab.
And can someone also tell me how to copy or rename the system files??
Ok, first off the .dll you wanted to copy out is not a file, it's a module. You can't copy them out of the rom to your sd card with total commander. You can do this with rom files, but not rom modules (I'll let you look up the difference). There is an app called 'romextractor.exe' that allows you to copy modules out. You might try doing it that way.
Anyway, the rest of your post gave me a headache, so I only barely read it. I kind of doubt you deleted the association for dll's (I don't even see an association on TC), but here's the reg key you may need. Check first to see if it was messed up.
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dll]
"Content Type"="application/x-msdownload"
@="dllfile"
Cut and paste into a .txt file, name it and change the extension to .reg and import it if you need to.
i think i got it sorted by associating the .dll files with shell32.exe or something like that. You can check the association of a file by using Total Commander, right click on any file u want to check and go to properties. There you will see 2 tabs at the top, and one of them is Association, there you can choose to associate with anything as well as clicking on the X button to delete the association.

Yeah, I know, I'm just saying that I don't have an association for .dll's. You don't really need one with a .dll, because it's not a file that you open up for anything. You can change the icon to something else, though. I think you just need the registry key I posted, but I doubt that you changed it.
Hey
So i just got the Blizzard Authenticator from the Android Market, i know it's storing an xml file that has a token and some other information, i was wondering if there is any way i can find out where that file might be?
I want to find the file, because in that way i can sync the key between my computer and phone
Cheers
-Jazerix
It would most likely be in /data/data/package name/shared_prefs, where package name is the name of the apk (probably something like com.blizzard.authenticator).
Thanks for your reply, but when i check out the data folder, it's completetly empty
Is there any other way i can trace the file path?
P.S. i'm using a Nexus S with CyanogenMod
Edit: I'm able to find something on the SD Card (/sdcard/Android/data), but there is no file regarding the mobile authenticator
Ok, so i just bought Root Explorer, and the folder is no longer empty cheers, found the files ^^
