I have read all of the post on adding your town to the weather list, and have edited my HH_409 file. I cannot get it back into my windows folder on the phone. The original is marked as read only. Even total commander can't remove it. I cannot overwrite it! How do I replace this file?
Total Commander should be able to overwrite the ROM file. It throws an error message in your face, but should be fine.
The file manager I use is Resco Explorer, it never let me down regarding moving files in/out the \Windows folder.
You know that editing the file isnt enough, right? You'll need a patched HTCHome.dll... If you're running the original ROM, you might need to install the SDK certificates too.
Thanks Schaggo! Is the htc home plug in language independent? I do have the factory ROM and am getting resco explorer, maybe that is my problem, I was just using total commander and the windows mobile file explorer.
Yes it's language independent.
The File Explorer is rather useless, but Total Commander should be able to replace ROM/Systemfiles. But I'm not a 100% sure, I only know Resco does, it throws a warning message but the file gets replaced in the end.
So if you are on the stock ROM, you have to install the SDK certificates, then the patched DLL and before you reset, select/set your custom city. After the needed softreset youll be able to use any city www.accuweather.com lists!
I am trying to modify the TouchFlo 3D a bit (custom icons and things like that), but I can't replace the manila files (for example 3f00cd2f_manila), because of their "read only" status. From what I've searched it can be done by a .cab file (but i dunno a crap about programming), so I'm asking:
Is there ANY other way that would let me replace those files with custom ones?
I know there is also the .theme file for Diamond TF3D Config, but I have no idea how to make these files (if there is any tutorial how to make theme- would be thankful for the link).
I hope someone from the forum will know how to do it
Use a decent File Explorer, not the default Windows Mobile one.
Total Commander is an example that can help you.
The read-only status can't be deleted by Total commander or anything else, since it's on ROM (but can be overwritten, or masked- like with custom backgrounds)
If you try to do it in total commander it thinks for a while, goes back to the file list, but doesn't change the read-only attribute.

You don't have to change the readonly status with total commander. Just disable tf3d in settings,copy your modified files to your phone, then use total commander(phone version of course) and copy over the readonly file. Re-enable tf3d again to see changed file. Later, if you go back and delete your modified file, the readonly file will still be there and be used by tf3d again.
I have a Touch Diamond and i have a problem:
Im trying to install .zip files from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2772381#post2772381
but when i go to the /windows directory and trying to copy and replace the files from my computer to the mobile it says i have not enough storage space...
Any ideas how i can fix this?
I have tryed the Total commander, but i cant get it to work, can anyone help with that part? plz
Try to see if you can deactivate the plugin, soft reset, and then try to copy the files... It might not be a problem of storage but rather of the files being used at the time of replacement. Hope this helps.
It woun't let you overwrite protected fies with file explorer so best to use is like Total Commander (Free) or Resco Explorer (commercial). Either of them will let you replace a protected file.
Active Sync works pretty well too if you have access to a pc.
Hello guys,
I've got a little question :
I need to extract some files from \windows, like manila.exe for example, but the problem is that even with resco explorer and total commander, it won't allow me to do so
I know there is a tool to do it but I can't find it back!
Please help me because it is quite urgent as i'm beta testing some few apps here and the guys needs my files
Cheers
I've never had problems with total commander. Try copying instead of cutting them out. If you are trying to cut them out and the files are active they can't be moved.
no no I'm just trying to copy it....
you're trying to copy files and it tells you you can't? what exactly is the error message?
With resco explorer, I've got "Access denied" :
And with Total Commander here is what I get :
I've tried either to copy on the internal memory and the SD card....
First I thought it was because TF3D wasn't inactivated, but I've bot the same problem if I disable the TF3D...
No.. this is stranger than i thought. I can copy everything from the windows folder.
This is weird.. but check out the properties of your windows folder..
Also, try using your PC to copy the files.
nop...even from the PC I can't copy it...
Maybe I try something else, is there a tool that can allow me to extract the file directly from the ROM files ? I mean from the .nbh file
little up guys
What is the fastes way to copy files from WINDOWS-folder from my Phone to my laptop?
Cause when I try to open the Windows dir it takes ages to read it out.
Also when I try to copy multiple files I get an Error, but not if I copy one file
The other question is:
In what manilla file are the graphics located for Sense (Cookies Home tab installed)
Is there a list available?
Thanks
Fastest way is for me doing a full Backup with SPB Backup and then read this Backup on PC with the provided SPB Backup Explorer.
Maybe,

It depends on what you will sir; if you will changed some graphics (manilla file) you can used cfc_GUI; its a free prog. and its useful and simple.
you can find a way fore download; and how to use by taking a look on a friend's wonderful thread fore that.
"°°how to figure out wich manila file is for what°°"
Using together with M9Editor, helps you a lot more.
But like I mentioned; it depends on what you will do.

First copy ure wanted files on your storage card with an file explorer like total commander or resco file explorer, then connected ure hd2 to your notebook, chose Disk Drive and copy it to your harddrive.
to your 2nd question:
extract the manila files of cookies cab : http://msceinf.softonic.de/pocketpc
and then use method of previous post (cfg-gui)
Thank you very much
But I get this Error after importing the manilla files:
It says "Done" in the import list but I can't see any files, just this Error
