Can not install .NET Framework on Tilt - General Topics

Hi,
I followed the recommended bloatware removal as described on this forum, with no problems.
Until today of course !
I'm trying to install Backcountry Navigator (BCN) to my Tilt and I get the following error :
Unable to install .NET Compact Framework as it exists in ROM.
Ok, if its in ROM why is BCN trying to install it ? I assume because it is not available for use,
maybe disabled when I did the bloatware removal?
So, how do I install a new copy of .NET or enable the existing copy that is in ROM ?
I tried to install the BCN program to both the device and to SD card, but got the same error.
Thanks
Bonnie

[Q] .NET CF Install issues

I've got a Vogue with Sprint running the official 6.1 OS.
Lately I've been having issues running certain apps. The new Facebook app and ComicReader 1.5.2 are the latest examples. Launching the application gets me this error message:
The application failed to load required components. If the .NET Compact Framework is installed on a storage card, please ensure that this card is in place and launch the application again. If this fails, a re-installation of the .NET Compact Framework is recommended. Support info: -2147479552 (80001000).
I have uninstalled .NET CF 3.5 through Remove Programs, but when I try to re-install, the device gives me the message:
The .NET Compact Framework version you are attempting to install already exists in ROM.
Then the installer exits.
Any thoughts on how I can get this fixed?
When you install the .net compact framework it sets a registry setting saying it is enabled and i think this is that it looks for when trying to install.
Try deleting this from the registry:
"\local machine\software\microsoft\netcompactframework"
after deleting, reinstall

Well, it sort of did the trick. It worked for the two apps mentioned (facebook and comicreader) but now fails with the same error message when I try to launch FSD dialer which I just downloaded and re-installed.
sigh
~~Update: I've also discovered that I get 4 of these errors pop up on a soft reset now. I have no idea what's throwing them because so far I haven't noticed any startup items that do not work. It could be a latency issue I suppose, but I did install .NET on the device, not a storage card.
Well this is getting serious. I've uninstalled and reinstalled .NET but it's not helping. Although some programs that didn't work now do, several others like GWatch, GAlarm, DiamondTV, PianoNM, and a notepad application now do not work, and I get the same error. I find two of these missing component errors on the phone every morning, and four of them on every soft reset.
Please someone tell me I'm not looking at a hard reset...

Try this:
There is a Compact Framework 3.5 powertoy named '.Net Configuration' (see cab below). The application provides control over the .net CF on your device. Here's what you do:
- Install the CAB below (to internal memory!)
- Run '.Net Configuration' from your Start Menu
- Navigate to the 'Device Policy' tab and select version 3.5
- Select 'Apply' then 'OK'
This has worked for other issues like yours.
Yay! All better now. Thanks!
If you have problems after that config it may be your rom. Some roms have registry settings built into them and restorethem on a softreset.... just a heads up
i was having the same problem with proven 1.12 rom for touch pro and following your above advised solved the problem.
Thanks Joel once again.
Run \Windows\cgacutil.exe on your device and it will pop up a window that lists the version(s) of the .NET CF installed on your device. I assume it stands for CompactGlobalAssemblyCacheUtility, and probably reads the stuff straight out of the registry. Easier than hacking about in the there anyway.
cannot install .netconfig

How to indentify .NET Framework Installed?

Hi there
Not sure how to find out/identify which version of the .NET Framework is installed on my TD2. Can anyone one advise on this, and if I am running v2 is it advised to install v3.5?
Also, if I should install v3.5 then how do I do this on the phone? I assume a .CAB needs to be loaded onto the phone and then run, and if this is the case then where do I get it from as all I can find is a 33.5Mb .msi from Microsoft.
Any assistance will be very much appreciated.
Merry Festive Season.

Thanks for the reply. I did search before posting but found nothing suitable in terms of information about this.
Cannot use ActiveSync as I get an 8nnnnnnnn error code which I am trying to sort out. Is there any other way?
Actually belay that last post as I have managed to find the NetCF 3.5 CAB. The following post has a download link to it and so I should be able to use that rather than the .msi & ActiveSync:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3464884&postcount=1
What I still do not know is how to tell which version of .NET Framework I have installed by default.
Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NETCompactFramework (this is usually the first entry)
or
tap file cgacutil.exe, in \Windows

Hi rspillo
Many thanks for the response. That is just what I was looking for and as a result I now know that I have v2.0 installed.
Would you be able to advise me on the following:
1. Should I upgrade to v3.5?
2. Are there any disadvantages to doing so OR not doing?
3. If so then how do I do that? Do I need to uninstall v2.0 and then install
v3.5 or can I just install v3.5 over the top of v2.0?
Many thanks in advance for any further advice and guidance that you can provide...and:

1. Install NetCF3.5 on your ppc, you find it easy on the internet
2. With a registry editor go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NETCompactFramework
4. When you open this you'll see all the .NET installed version change the DWORD value of 2.0.xxxx from 1 to 0
5. Chang the DWORD value of 3.5.xxxx from 0 to 1.
6. Reboot
NetCF 3.5 is important because many programs required it [es. AdvancedConfigTool v.3.3 ecc. ecc.]

Hi rspillo
Many, many thanks for the response...especially on Christmas Day.
I have a .CAB of the PPC element of NetCF3.5 so I will install that and then follow the Registry edit instructions provided.
Many thanks again...I will post be re. success or not.

Hi rspillo
All installed and Registry tweaked as recommended...and working well as far as I can see.
Cheers

Ok, well done!

Config app
Hi all
I have attached two .cab files.
1) .Net CF 3.5 Messages resource. This is needed for some applications.
2) .Net CF Config application. This allows you to change application policies (i.e. which version to use) and the device policy.
Cheers
andrew-in-woking
Hi Andrew
Thanks for the reply.
Have already managed to change the application policies via a Registry tweak, ie, v2 off & v3.5 on, etc, but am not sure what the impact of the device policy and why I would need to change it, etc. Would you be able to illuminate me on this and if it is really necessary.
I am also unclear a to whether I really need the .Net CF 3.5 Messages resource. Have so far not noticed any issues so again I am asking as to whether I really need to install this and what is the impact if I do?
Lastly, can these .CABs be installed to the SD card or must they be installed on the Device...the latter I suspect but think it best to always check just in case.
Apologies for all the questions but I am a newbie and being cautious.
Cheers

Apps Don't Work, Requires newer version of .net

I've tried quite a few applications but I keep getting an error that says This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft .Net Compact Framework than the one installed on this device... I can't seems to find a way to upgrade. Any help would be appreciated...

Install the attached Microsoft .Net Compact Framework v3.5. Also do the changes below :
Use a registry editor, go to path
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework and change DWORD 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0 and DWORD 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1.
By these, you install version 3.5 and set it as default instead of 2.0
What is the deal with CF Net 3.7? Is it the latest CF or is it a bogus program?
i needed that as well. thanks
NET CF 3.7 is for real.......
Read this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525138
Have it in my custom Rom aswell.....never issues with running programmes....
Thanks for the replies, i figured out the problem, I needed to connect the phone to the PC using ActiveSync and then run the setup I downloaded to the PC.
Surv!vor, just in case...... when you use CAB files than copy them to your phone using activesync.....and run them on your phone.....follow instructions....
Success......

Where can you find the Cab files? What are they called?
I'm having the same problem - I bought Droppedbox but I can't figure out how to get it to work on my HTC Diamond phone. It installed but won't run - I get the error that it needs a newer version of the .net compact framework. I installed a the 3.5 framwork on the PC (NETCFSetupv35.msi) with the phone connected, but it didn't install on the phone.
Not sure what to try next.
Use a registry editor, go to path
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework and change DWORD 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0 and DWORD 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1.
this path is in the phone? sorry for being such a noob
It's worth noting that Dropbox installed and worked perfectly on my Android tab, and on my wife's iPad, and on her Blackberry, and on our PCs. But I still can't get it to work on my Windows Mobile phone. I guess that's why people buy Android or Apple phones these days.
Just saying.

.NET CF initialization error in windows 6.1

Hey everone,
i have an issue with my samsung jack running wm6.1.
The other day i opened a app which i use every day (sxradio2) and i get the following:
Error
"this application requires a newer version of the microsoft .net compact framework than the the version installed on this device"
when i press quit to end the app i then get this:
.NET CF initialization error
ERROR
the application failed to load required componets. if the .net compact framework is installed on a storage card, please ensure that this card is in its place and launch the app again. if this fails a re-installion of the .net cf is recomended. support info:- 2147483643 (80000005)
i know for a fact that when i installed this several months ago that it was installed on the device and not the sd card. when i look thur the registry with an editor and look at the values of i get:
2.0.7045.00 / value data=0
3.5.7283.00 / value data=1
which leads me to belive that the 2.0 version is inactive and the 3.5 version is attive.
When i try to re-install .NET CF 3.5 the phone then tells me that it is already installed an stops the installation.
I'm not new to windows based phones and tweaking them but i would not consider myself a "veteran" either.
i searched the forums already and didnt find any help and didnt want to hijack a thread that may or may not help.
would really apperciate any help that may resolve this without having to hard reset.
thanks in advance!
I notice that you don't mention un installing .net 3.5 before trying to reinstall. Is this the case? It does appear in the remove programs list. And nothing adverse done to device prior to errors?
good day.
no sir
i did not un install it, and it does not appper in remove programs (but i remember it being there at one time).
