Hi everyone,
Maybe a silly question but i'm a beginner... after installing a cab on WM6 can i remove it to gain some memory ?
Great forum, i'm learning a lot here

Hi!
I don't think the original question was how to remove the program, but rather if the cab file can be removed (if I'm wrong I apologize, but I interpreted the question different).
Anyway, yes, you can safely remove the cab file from the device after installing it. To remove the installed program use the method described by Rudegar.
It may be wise to store the cab files on the storage card, so you have them available if you have to make a hard reset.
Regards,
PK
tks for the reply paalkr and yes that was my question. So i can delete or save the cabs on the storage card and will have no problems with my device if i understood well
tks again guys

Hi!
Thats correct! Put the cabs on the storage card. You can then install them from that location also, but I guess you already know that.

How do we get the extended rom to automatically run on Crossbow? I've searched Google and others and haven't found a thing. Is it a reg. setting or what?

Ok, you have an autorun.exe in the windows directory, and a config.txt file in the windows directory. The config.txt is the same as it was in WM5 just a location change. Have all your lines point to \extended_rom\ and youll be fine
Wrong thread I know - but I looked all over the place and can't seem to find the definitive answer ... so here goes - am I correct in assuming that it's possible to delete the contents of ext_rom once you've used them? I guess that they are only for installing into the "real" storage, and just as long as you don't need them following a hard reset, they are just taking up some space .. am I correct?
I'm working with orwell's. Those files aren't there, so what has to happen?

No. In AKU 2.x and above, the extended rom partition is locked and cannot be written to and cannot have files deleted.

If you are on orwells, you need to do it the WM5 way from what I understand.

I'm not too smart either...can you give instructions?
In the system hive, (default.hv) you should have:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm]
"TurnRadioFlag"=dword:0
"AutoRunCFG"="\\Extended_ROM\\config.txt"
"AutoRun"="\\Extended_ROM\\autorun.exe"
Most of the WM6 ROMs are missing the last two keys, thus the Autorun of the Extended_ROM is disabled by default.

in all honesty, you are wrong. Even if those lines are there, for some reason the checkautorun still looks in the windows directory for the config file and the autorun file. I have searched the whole default.hv and still cant figure out why. You figure it out and ill give you a cookie.
As we know, by default when you install CAB it will get deleted after installation.
Some of cooked ROMs will disable this feature, so CAB will stay after installation. Which is OK for many people.
Here is my question. When I install new program using PC (through ActiveSync) it seems that ActiveSync will transfer CAB file (which is inside .exe) and then - install it as usual. So ... where will be those CAB files located and will they be deleted after installation if delete-cab-after-install feature is disabled ?
During TRANSFER ActiveSync does not ask .... "Do you want your CAB to be transferred to SD card or main memory", right ? It only asks during INSTALLATION of the CAB.
I make lots of installations using ActiveSync and would like to know if I'm not filling my valuable disk space (on phone itself) with junk CAB files.

Thats why I prefer to extract the cab out of the C:\Programs\Activesync and copy them to SDcard. Pro: you have all needed programs on SDcard and do not have to install throu activesync.

To enable or disable deleting CAB files after installing:
HKCR/cabfile/Shell/Open/Command/
default = \Windows\wceload.exe "%1"
\Windows\wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete

Also if you make the files readonly you don't need to worry about making the registry change to stop them being deleted after installation.

ATT SIM Manager
Posted this in Kaiser, with no luck so,
Anyone have a cab of the SIM Manager that you can access in programs?
Installed the one from dutty's cab thread,but the applet doesn't show up in programs or anything.
Any help?
Alemaker
Did you ever find this? I am looking too.
nope!
C'mon chefs, help out here PLEASE!

Found the app in Alex's OEM pkgs, and asked Kyphur if he could make a cab out of it in his v1.2 thread. That's the best I've been able to come up with.

thx, but that's the one we're having issues with. It'll install and give access to the SIM card but, the applet isn't there.

Maybe the older version will work. I'll put it up so you can give it a try:
make a cab from the 6.33 version please
After much help from Dutty (thanks!) I can now confirm that this cab (attached) will install SIM Manager 6.33 (even though under remove applications it says it installed 6.31).
Unfortunately, it does not automatically create a shortcut ... so after the install you will have to (a) find the exe file in your windows folder (remember to "show all files") and then (b) create a shortcut to drop into your "windows/startmenu/programs" directory.
Worked fine for me ... and thanks again to Dutty for educating me here.
ey man, If you don't matter, same CAB, with version corrected and link added
Cheers.

Go to Start -> Settings -> System -> Remove Programs
It will display a list of all the programs installed in your Magician.
Select the one you want to uninstall and Press *UNINSTALL*
Thats too simple I guess!!

If you have done the BigStorage Hack and "installed" the application later on, it should be there in the Remove Programs list because the BigStorage hack simply nullifies the concept of ExtRom. If you can't find the program, you can tell me which one is it, and I will try to figure it out.
( Camera_Wizard_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_RC28_Customize.Cab ) this is the one which i wish to remove.... and maybe u can tel me which cab is for changing themes too?

Themes come from .tsk files rather than .cab files. And about Camera Wizard.cab, it actually changes some registry values. Nothing else. Its not an application installer.
Hi everybody? I am trying to find a solution to a issue with sasimi on the new 6.5.X roms (with the start button on the lower bar). The issue is that sashimi cant install cabs to storage card. I searched the web and foud some ideas that u need to hack the sashimi.mrsc file but none of them was working.
Can anybody who succeeded in runing sashimi post his workoround? That would really help me. Thanks ion advance.
Nobody here uses sashimi?

Will it also still work with older winmo versions? Or does this break that functionality... thanks though! (Thinking of it, only using 6.5.x now anyway...)

Faaaaaaaaaantastic, it works.
Now, is there a way to install cabs to the device as well. I have tried "device" and nothing for the ASL directory, but nothing installs.
I have the Autoinstall facility on my rom but am a bit dubious to have have Autoinstall and Sashimi both working after a re-rom.

you need to install Sashimi program once in you device to storage card
1- if you already install Sashimi.cab you will get SASHIMI folder in storage card
2- copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
3-copy reg files that you want to install in SASHIMI\Auto\REG\
and so on
after you upgrade your Leo or hardreset it, run Autorun.exe from SASHIMI\Program\2577\
and chose AUTO

I just replaced my SASHIMI.mcsr and it does fix files installed to the device memory but for cabs installed to the storage card, I have to still select storage card and hit 'OK'. Then I have to go to the Home menu and come back to SASHIMI before SASHIMI will carry on with the next cab (in which then I have to repeat the steps for all cabs to be installed to the SC).
Anyone know what could be wrong?
I'm running: Energy.RHODCDMA.23549.Sense2.5_with_Cookie_HomeTab.Mar.20.7z
on a TP2
Me too
It seems that the "SendSpecial ("Down")" is not working and the script may be hanging on the command, or something like that. You don't see the selection change, so it could also be the "SendSpecial("Space")" not working. Either way, the "SendSpecial("LeftSoft")" just after is obviously not firing. Not sure why it's different now, but it apparently is. There used to be a "SendSpecial("CR")" instead of the "SendSpecial("Space")", so I'll try that to see if it's working again (worked in win6.1, not in win6.5). Mine's been working just fine, up till the very latest Energy ROM on my CDMA TP2.

I think it connected to the roms u are using. For me it worked with one rom, then I flashed other rom and I experencied the same thing as you.
sorry to ask, but so far I have no clue about Sashimi but would like to use it and read therefore as much as I could.
Is point 3 a typo?
>3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in main memory to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
shouldn´t it be:
3-copy cab's programs that you want to install in Storage Card to SASHIMI\Auto\cab\SC\
Sorry to ask maybe the obvious but for a newbie it is helping to sort out missunderstanding.

You're right there off course
I am having no luck with the v8.0 of Sashimi. I have the Artemis ROM (WinMo v. 6.5.5).
Auto mode only installs cabs from cab/ASL folder. I replaced the Sashimi.mscr with the one posted in this thread but to no avail.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
me too,
sashimi doesnt install (not works) for new artemis v7. It install all my cabs from auto/SC to device becasue it can not move cursore down anymore..
any suggestions?
I also had a problem with cabs not auto installing onto my Storage Card, instead they were installing to My Device. I have been doing some hunting around for the solution and i think i have managed to find it. (its worked for me anyway).
Go to SASHIMI > Program > Bin, BACKUP SASHIMI.mscr and then replace with the one i have attached. I am no coder so please don't ask me about specifics, there were just some hashes added to the beginning of a couple of lines of code. Like i say it worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you Let us know if it works for you. Cheers.
I'm surprised that either of the attachments on this thread works on HD2 Leo. I found that there is a very basic problem with mortscript and all sashimi scripts will hang. Two symptoms:
1) if not in flight mode, sometimes hangs during initialisation
2) if auto install to storage card, will hang (leaving you to select the radio button and press install)
and there is no easy cure.
