PsshutXP - General Questions and Answers

Could someone end all these threads I've read and tell me "How To" get psshutxp to actually turn off my Touch Pro? I have the Diamond version psShutXP Power Key!!

check which exe turns off your device.. like poweroff.exe or poweroffwarning.exe
rename your psshutxp.exe file to that file... and put it in your windows dir.
if you want to use skins, just copy the skin files to the windows dir as well

HTC Camera 3.0/3.3 cab?

I'm currently using Equinoexe's Touchflo rom (VERY slick BTW, kudos to him!), and the only thing I'm having a problem with is the camera that's packaged with it... Does anyone have 3.0 or 3.3 wrapped up in a cab file? I've searched and searched, and nothing comes up.
THANKS!
I believe copying files does the trick. For me it didn't. I am also looking to make it work but I gave up.
yes, any1 have cab file?
I'd be interested in the Camera files as a cab too.
Here's Faria's 3.3 camera files, but they're not in a cab. It includes a readme.txt file instructing where to dump the files.
reg key
does anyone know where abouts in the registry the reg key goes or wot prog ram i could use to import the key
i'd like to add that in the rar file posted for faria's 3.3 camera, there are files to place in windows, and instructions to also import a reg key for the camera. that reg key, however, isn't included with the package.. does anyone know what is needed?
The registration included to the package but it is hidden because the extension is reg which connected to the files system. If you want to see, you must set your windows to appear the files system.
For example Resco explorer has the option to show hidden files, then to apply the reg file, just double click it.

Problem! Unpacking .CAB Files

I was just updating my I-mate SP5m with some new programs....
I tried to unpacking a WMP skin. It asked me to choose a program to open the .CAB file, so I chose Window's Media Player (my stupidity)
Now I can't open .CAB Files. It automatically try’s to open ALL .CAB FILES WITH WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER...
How do I fix this problem?
PLEASE HELP ME
(sorry I posted in the Tornado forums, but I hope to get faster help here)

I'm going to assume that you're talking about Windows XP. Just open up your Edit menu and take a peek in Folder options. There ought to be something in there about file associations. I'd be more specific, but it's been eons since I've tinkered around with Windows.
No its on a Smartphone... It should automaticly un-compress it self and install, but all it does is opens windows media player. This is for any .CAB file at the moment
PLEASE HELP!
i suspect a hard reset would do it but if you want to avoid that..
found this page which discusses the subject but seems to be based on pocket pc, if you have a registry editor it might be worth checking out the keys they mention in case they are there on your phone. also like they say resco explorer can change the association.

I'll keep looking and post if i find an easy way of fixing this.

Slow Vista file transfer to //Windows on device.

Hi everybody,
I am, as most of you know a skinner here on the forum.
So first of all i little explanation:
All dialers that I know of install all of their images in the /Windows directory on your mobile device. So when I skin a dialer I have to copy my files to that directory over and over.
In windows XP, the browser only had to load the file list from /Windows once and when it was done doing so, it blasted all images to the /Windows folder.
So I had to wait half a minute and then I just copied over all files, great!
Now I use Vista and it has to load then complete new file list for every file it want's to copy to the /Windows directory. With my previous dialers, I was ok with that. (+/- 20-30 images) But with the new Opal and Diamond dialer it has gotten a lot more. (total of ~350 images) That means I have to wait 350*30= 10500 seconds -> almost three hours for all files to be copied! And that is just demoralising!
So any suggestions on making this work faster are much appreciated!
I've tried to use Total Commander but it does not recognise my pocket pc and nor does FastCopy.
Thanks in advance (even for reading the enitre story )
Well, for me I had to connect my phone to my PC using the USB Mass Storage option instead of Activesync to increase the copying speed. I am using a Touch Pro.
That will prevent me from seeing the windows directory :/
Only sd card is visible then.

Your device has to refresh after every file copy, or Vista has to refresh the file list? What vista file browser are you using? Are you using Windows Mobile Device Center?
I have Vista Business x64 and I'm not having any problems copying to and from the \Windows dir. I will help you as much as possible.
It's not copying from the device but to the device that takes a very long time.
I'm using the standard file browser from vista and Ultimate x86 with WMDC.
My laptop (Windows Vista Home Basic) takes ages when copying files from my laptop to the /Windows directory on my device too. When I try to copy files for a Manilla2D theme for example, it takes about 5 hours.
In Vista make sure that you have "show hidden files and folder" deselected in Folder Options. Also, try disabling the "Show system files" option as well. This should minimize the number of files that explorer will try to display when refreshing, thus a speed increase.
I'll try to look into this more, as I just copied all the opal phone canvas files to \windows from my vista machine. It only took ~2 minutes to copy all the files.

But when I do this, I can't access the /Windows directory because its a system file?

Hmmm. Do you have your device configured with Mobile Device Center (setup to sync)? I ask because I don't sync anything with it. I simply use it to connect to the phone. Maybe this has something to do with it.
I'll also check the speed settings in Device Manager. Maybe there is something to adjust there.
One option I use is to pull the card and use a USB card reader to drag the files over. Lightening fast. The other is the USB connection option on some of the newer ROMS i.e. DCDs, Scrosslers (DCD variant). Has very fast directoru refresh and copy.

Vista has it own problems. Maybe do a double boot and start XP when you need to . . .
From an IT standpoint this is why many companies and people are not using Vista . . .
I know it is not the solution fo choice but it would work . . . .

[Help] Turn off the TouchFlo Scrolling feature

Hi,
I would like to turn off the TouchFlo scrolling feature but so far to no success. Anyone can try this for me and see whether yours can be turned off? You suppose to be able to turn it off by using software like Advanced Configuration Tool, in the TouchFlo section.
Thanks in advance.
I've done this using following trick:
- create zerolength files BioTouch.exe,BioTouch.dll and StartUpBioTouch.exe
- make a backup copy of these files from Windows folder
- using Resco Explorer copy them to Windows folder and overwrite them all
- soft reset
If you want to use SPB PocketPlus for scrolling,I have it described in this forum already,so look behind in the forum.

as already all cooker know that we have to assign rar and zip files to pocket rar on first launch and for that we have to press ok button which is missed in my htc touch..
so anyone know registry hack to bypass this message in wm 6.5.x????
Try this:

How?
how to add the registry?
I use phm regedit...
Copy it to a text file; save it with a .reg extension, and then import it with PHM; if you have .reg files associated with PHM, then all you need to do is click on the file. It will respond like a .cab file, basically. I updated the stuff above with the proper header (windows registry editor version 5.00). You need to have it at the beginning of the file for it to work.
If you use XTask, you can close the settings window by clicking on the pocket rar icon on the task bar and dragging down to the 'close' button. You need to have 'close' as one of the xtask options in settings.
Don't work
Don't work click in file .reg extension....
At the click opens the phm resgistry and nothing happens ...
What to do?
If it's opening PHM, then you just need to import the key with PHM. Not sure how, since I don't use PHM, but I'm guessing click on File-Import reg key-navigate to key and click ok.
Or, get dotfred's task manager, set it to associate with .reg keys, and use it. The reg editor is basically the same as PHM, and it has many more tools. That's what I use.
??
I dont understand... what program do you use?
