hi all
just wandering if anyone knows how to convert sis to cab file and actually make it work on ppc?
Thanks
No, there is no way: .sis and .cab are totally different file formats.
Symbian and Windows Mobile are not compatible to each other.
Compare it to Mac OS and Windows.

Hi, just want to know something about file extensions. I encounter a software with 'MIPS', 'SH3' and 'ARM'; which one should i choose so that i can install the program in Xda II ? Do i need any particular program to run those files ?
Thanx for your help

ARM
if the extension is CAB you have to copy it to XDA and run it there
EXE's can be eithet PC or PocketPC EXE's so you'll have to try, but try first on PC and if it is a pocketpc exe it will say so.
I am looking for the name of the software that lets you ask where to install a cab file in Windows Mobile 2003. I remember having a program like that but it got removed after a hard reset. Can anyone tell me the name of that program?

Anyone got any clue to the software?
Look for CabInstl by SK Software.
But will this software allow me to pick a location for lets say if I am installing a program from an exe file from my PC? I remember the software I used did something what WM5 and WM6 does by creating a Program Files directory and not creating a folder for each program on the root of the Storage Card.
Hi folks
I am a newby and I have a general question for the CAB files for windows mobile devices.
Is it possible to create a CAB File which contains different sections for different devices.
For example my Cab file should create a few registry entry. Registry entry 1 to 5 is for HTC device, registry entry 6-10 for Samsung devices and 11-20 for all device.
Is there a possibility to create a CAB file who is creating the registry entries like I wish?
Cheers Tom
No. Cabs use to have support for different processor types like MIPS and SHA but today everyone uses ARM.
To do what you want you need ether to use an exe or to put a setup.dll in the cab that will recognize the device via its OEM string (SystemParametersInfo) and write the needed registry.
Is there some information available how to use or create a setup.dll file?
Cheers Tom
CAB and DLL files
You will find the DLL files that may be missing or corrupted on your computer. You can free download on internet at no cost! It’s very useful. If you're using Windows XP or Windows Vista, then your working system has fixed support for opening CAB files. However, if you right-click on items in a CAB file, you won't see all the same options you'd see for a file in a usual folder. This shows that it is not a real folder.
Hi Smithmark
I do not understand you post. I think you are talking about something else.
Please read my question above.
cheers Tom
This will tell you everything you need to know provided you can code in C/C++.
Hi,
I'm trying to create a language pack for the WP7... I found some s000 files, some mui files after extracting the imgfs.
How can i edit these files? What is the best way to do this? Do i have to do something special after editing?
Thanks for your help!

Visual Studio
Hi, I tried to open some WP7 mui files in Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone and it tells me:
"There is no editor available for 'xxx.mui'. Make sure the application for the file type (.mui) is installed."
I also read somewhere that you must rename the file to .dll and than open them but when I do it tells:
"The following components could not be browsed:" and nothing else.
I read posts about WM6 mui files but I wonder how can i edit WP7 mui files. Should I have full version of Visual Studio?
Hi.
One of the most frequently request i think is this: "Is there any way to convert cab or exe files into .xap ones?"
I haven't found anything about. Can you help me understanding if there is a possibility for this problem? I have an important app in .exe format i would install on my Samsung Omnia 7. Can you help me?
Tnx from south Italy.
Bye

Apps for wm <= 6.5 cannot be launched in wp7
but there has to be a way to translate .cab files , this OS is based partially at least on CE , and .cab files are in CE
I think the main problem is not the underlying OS, but the GUI is completely different. To put it simply, 6.5 and under had a different way of handling how apps looked and reacted on screen.
