Cab files disappear? - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

I was used that my cab files would disappear from my sd card after installing in wm2003. It didn't happen with wm2005 in Hima, but it happens again with my S200. Do I need to change something or os this normal? Anayway, I find this very annoying.

You have to make them read only before installing them
JD

Thanx for the advice JD. BTW do you have any idea which keyboard skin is working on the S200 (Prophet)? I tried OSXblue from Buzz, but doesn't work.

Or you cantry this registry hack:
Make WM5 keep CAB files around after installing
An alternative method of making WM5 keep the original .CAB file around after installing the application is by adding the "/nodelete" option to the Windows CE loader:
HKCR\cabfile\Shell\open\command = 'wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete' (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Missing Bluetooth Manager in spanish vodafone magician

Hi all, i have a problem, cannot use many bluetooth functions because my magician does not have btconnmanagerce.exe nor any bt dlls in \windows directory...
I tried to copy al bt*.* files from other pda to mine but it still gives me an error saying some dll is missing, i suppose this is because i don't have any registry entries for that new dll's or some of the necessary files...
Can anyone tell me how can I install this bt wizard? or tell me where to download the bt manager and utilities .cab installer from any extended rom? or any clues of how to install or transfer it from somewhere?
Thank you in advance...

New WM6 ROM kitchen (from Ranju)

Hello Friends,
I have managed the new WM6 kitchen based on Ivan's new (17913.0.3.0) build. This is a clean vanilla kitchen, you can add your own flavor and the way you want it.
I've uploaded the kitchen to the following url and hope that you will like it.
http://www.siemens-bd.net/files/000000
Files have been splited into 10 parts (5MB each) because of my unstable internet connection here. Uploading a 50MB file for me is simply a nightmare! Please download all of them and unrar.
You will find two cmd files (1. BuildKitchen.cmd and 2. CreateROM.cmd) inside the ROM_DEV folder after the unrar.
Step-1: Run the BuildKitchen.cmd (first time only), it will dump the rom and prepare the kitchen for you.
[Additionally, you may use it to dump other WM6 rom and prepare the kitchen. In that case, decode the rom, copy (or overwrite) the nk.nba file to the ROM folder and run this cmd to build the kitchen.]
Step-2: Run the CreateROM.cmd to build the rom...as usual.
You will find a Ranju_OEM folder under the ROM_DEV folder. Some of the oem packages have been added if anyone is interested to use. Just copy your desired packages to the OEM folder and build the rom.
And finally, all credit goes to Ivan. Special thanx to Helmi, Midget, Bepe and Tuatara for their tools and support.
By the way, I've a limited bandwidth to this server, it will be great if someone mirror it somewhere.
Best regards,
Ranju

Thx for the new kitchen. Based on V3, correct?
Could you please clarify the 1st post?
Clean Vanilla: What did you remove from the ROM?
Cheers

I've just checked the OEM folder.
Very good Job: just like i was thinking. Probably I don't need any other apps for OEM.

Did you modify any cmd file?
If not, then delete the temp folder. Do a search on SYS & OEM for "Thumbs.db" and delete them if found any. Run the CreateROM.cmd.
I suppose "Thumbs.db" have been created by your picture browser apps.
"Thumbs.db" is a file that Windows XP (and Vista) create if you preview a picture or movie. Its not important at all (although Windows will complain that it is a "System File")
(Nifty fact: Windows XP can create the "thumbs.db" file in a read-only network share!)
Thanks for the info, i'll try deleting and recompile.
Deleted, compiled and flashed: every essential function i tested is working. The kitchen is very clean! Many thanks ranju!

Can you please make a cab of it so that we can install. Dont want to go through re in stalling rom. Appreciate
Or if you can advice the registry entries for both above issues please.
Phone.cab
A cab file for the file in phone.zip is not that difficult since it's just a couple of registry entries.
The other one is more difficult since it also includes files.
So just to help a little, a cab file for the registry stuff in the phone.zip
Actually not that difficult
When comparing the old and new files, I noticed that just the RGU file is different.
Since this is the file with registry settings, I made a quick cab for it.
So not to replace the previous HTC Manager install or anything like that, just to corrent the registry entries.
ps. This and the previous file are not made/reviewed/anything by Ranju, but I've just given them him (her?) name to avoid confusion.

Set the value of "Script" to "apr" and it should like this. It will remove 3s ring delay.

Press the power button (off) after the changes and wait for 10 sec, switch on again and soft reset your device to take the changes in action...

How to "activate" extended ROM?

Hi guys,
I flashed my Wizard with the base OS ROM version 5.2.318 (build 15342.0.0.0, customization) published in this forum about a month or so...
After flashed, it just start the OS without running the Extended_ROM content, so I installed all cab files inside Extended_ROM folder by myself.
What I should modify in order this run automatically on next hard-reset?
You have a G4 Wizard looking at your signature, thus the files Autorun.exe and Config.txt (a list of all the cabs in the right format- these files can be found in the Faria Ext-rom tutorial package) need to be in the \Windows folder but they can still point to run Cabs from the Extended ROM. Check the registry before cooking to see it points to the autorun file then you're good to flash.
Thanks for the response... I did it and is working now!. Useful tip.

Can anybody post their WM 6.1 Threaded SMS files?

I have a T-Mobile Shadow and would like to use the new wm6.1 Threaded SMS program on it.
Can anybody post/attach their WM 6.1 Threaded SMS files?
In wm6 the SMS program is under \Windows and the files are:
tmail.exe
tmail.lnk
tmail.manifest.xml
tmailutl.dll
Thanks in advance!
...anybody?
Here you go enjoy
I managed to copy only 2 files. the other are protected anв can not be copied.
please guide on how I camn copy them for you
I Hope that is what you are asking for
good luck
I'm been trying to backup the original files and have the same problem.
tmail.exe and tmailutl.dll can't be copied and those are the files that I need to port SMS 6.1 to a WM6 device.
I'm been trying to kill the mail process using Celetask but it doesn't work.
Thanks anyway!
Will this help you out Freddy? It was ripped out of the Palm Treo and made to work with AT&T. Here is the link to the page with the download for the cab.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376738
I can try it but one of the things that I liked from the wm6.1 version is that it is part of the OS. I've seem other SMS treaded software that need to be running in the background for it to work.
How is the Palm version?
Can it be used with T-Mobile?
I have heard of a lot of people using and liking that better than wm 6.1. threading.
Can I get one?

Hi freyes01, so did you ended up successful with that cab file? Or is this project been abandoned and went straight into a ROM update instead??
WM6.1 comes with default threaded SMS, U can any time disable it, by going to HKLM\Control Panel\Microsoft\Inbox and set SMSAvailable to '0'

cprog.log

Hi!
The free memory of my device is getting smaller and smaller, althought i havent installed too much apps and not to much files.
I've been searching for a reason and found the file
/DebLogger/cprog.log
wich has a size of 26 MB
Can i delete it? Does it contain anything important?
Thanks! Cheers!
ok, after killing the process cprog.exe i was able to delete the file.
but after some usage it starts to grow again...
how to disable this?
thanks alot! cheers
You probably have a memory leak somewhere...
hmm... that means? and what can i do?
thanks!
nobody any idea?
Did you cook your own ROM? Or you using a cooked ROM or stock ROM?
yes i'm using a cooked rom and installed a lot of system changes, for example the new Phone Canvas from the mega pack...
I'm suffering the sme issue here: cprog.log is now 40 MB and i'm almost out of storage space!
me too, not a virus I hope
Yep. Mine is nearly 60 MB and growing.
I'm running TPC's cooked version of WM 6.5, if that matters.
Jack Vinson
ROM: TPC_V10_MEGA (WM 6.5)
Radio: 1.70.19.09
Phone: Kaiser 8925 (AT&T Tilt)
has anybody found a good solution yet?
true de task manager, you can kill cprog.exe and then delete the "big" cprog.log file but what after a restart??
And when i koll cprog.exe, my phone doesn't ring or vibrate anymore when i get called or receving a sms...
Have you tried searching your registry for "cprog.log"? Maybe you can shut it off.
cprog.log same problem
Got same problem !
P3600 HTC Cruise with WM 6.5 Pro cook rom pcarbalho exteme devs. Yesterday was unable to start device ... after various reboot finally started, and with the explorer in an ActiveSync connection :
renamed \DebLogger\cprog.log
restarted again
and finally ... delete the renamed file
have proven to remove the directory, but after restarting again, it re-create the directory and the file start growing again ...
Any solution?
This thread suggests some Registry keys to edit, which I just did. Basically, set everything to OutputEnable of 0, rather than 1 in the DebLogger registry unter HKey_Local_Machine/Software/HTC/DebLogger. This doesn't prevent CProg from running, though. so I don't know if it will keep the size in check.
I also notice another large file that is updated all the time in My Device root directory "pim.log". Anyone know what that is? (pim = Personal Information Management?)
Jack
Solution
Hi, i've found the solution in the TPC thread, someone found the way to delete cprog.
- With Registry Editor go to:
HKey_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\Deblogger
delete the whole Deblogger folder
- Soft Reset
- Delete the folder Deblogger with cprog inside in the Device Memory.
You have no more cprog growing and the mobile runs smoothly.
Do this procedure again if you do a hard reset, because the Deblogger is cooked inside Windows 6.5 build.
I think chefs will remove the Deblogger in their future ROMs.
Additions to the resolution process
Had this issue too... system became gradually slower and suddenly had run out of space ("you are running critically low on storage" kind of message).
Before I could delete the large file I had to install and run a task manager on the mobile and terminate/kill the "cprog.exe" application/process.
Cheers,
Daniel
Hmmm...for some reason I've started getting this issue, on my PDACorner Ultimate (WM 6.1)! Dont think its limited to 6.5 then!

Is no need to delete all the folder "HKey_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\Deblogger"
GO TO
HKey_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\Deblogger\zone\deblog\outputenable and modify the key to 0. restart the device and delet the file from main memory
changing the value to 0
Nykoon: I did just that and cprog was still growing. I remove the whole folder and that did it
cprog / deblogger
When I disable or delete the deblogger registry folder and delete cprog, my Pocket e-Sword program doesn't work. Will try again.
Using a Kaiser hTC, windows 6.1.
