I'm trying to create a program for windows mobile 2003/5.0/6.0 smartphone but I can't for the life of find the File Explorer. I can in 6.0 but where is it in 5.0 or 2003. Please no links to google or "jfgi" responses, I wouldn't be asking if I had yielded any success.
Thanks in advance
Have you tried looking into Total Commander. It is a 3rd party app and is a very good File Explorer for the PPC, I highly recommend it. As for the stock one, it should just be in the program folder, no?
Hope this helps.
PS If you Google Total Commander for Pocket PC, be sure to download and install the PPC version NOT the desktop version.
Nol. It isn't. I can't find the stock file explorer to save my life. Did 5.0/2003 not come with one? Am I so stupid that it's right in front of my face?
on my Jamin beofre i flashed 6.1 rom it had 5.0. I am sure the iexplore.exe was in the windows folder, 99% sure it should be there. I dont have it anymore so i can t check for you, but i have a reasonable memory
Not the internet explorer. File explorer. Or file manager. Either one. Nowhere to be found.

Lol, Ironically, he would need to search the Windows Folder from File Manager, which he doesn't have apparently
Like I suggested, download and install Total Commander. And do it with a .msi over the Activesync cable, because you won't be able to install a .cab from the storage card without a File Explorer. From there, you can then look in File Manager for its own launch program.

THANK YOU. Seriously, thank you. I wasn't sure if it didn't have a file explorer of I was just retarded. Thanks for clearing that up though.

pmsl i should learn to stop trying to multi task, that is watching the Simpsons and reading haha, missed that one!
First of all, I've to say that I spent several hours trying to make Opera 10 working correctly with the TouchFLO interface. Trust me, you can't do this editing the registry or other files.
The only way to run Opera Mobile 10 (beta) from the Internet tab is using a little app called "VJBrisk.exe". I've found these informations here; they were written in order to launch Skyfire, but I've done the same thing to launch Opera and it worked.
Here's a little tutorial. Hope this will finally help you.
1) Install Opera Mobile 10 (http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/) into your mobile. It will prompt you to set Opera as default browser. Say YES.
2) Download VJBrisk (http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJBrisk) and install it on your mobile
3) Copy "VJBrisk.exe" (you can find it into the apps list -start, etc.-) with a good explorer (I reccomend Total Commander) into the \Windows folder
4) Rename "OperaL.exe" to "OperaL.exe.bak" (who knows...) into the \Windows folder
5) Rename "VJBrisk.exe" (\Windows) to "OperaL.exe"
6) Create a shortcut to Opera Mobile 10 (you can do this with Total Commander by clicking File - >>>>> - Create shortcut) and move this shortcut to the \Windows folder
7) Rename the shortcut to "OperaLLNK.lnk" into the \Windows folder
8) Do a soft reset
That's all. 99% working on my HTC Touch Viva.
I say 99% because if you click the "All bookmarks" link (not the bookmarks...) on the left, Opera will show you an error page saying "Could not open file. You tried to access the address file://localhost/Bookmarks, which is currently unavailable..."; the same for the "Browser" link on the right. I think this is a sort of Opera Mobile 10 bug, maybe it will be resolved with the final release.
Haven't had a chance to try this yet, and don't plan to until I can get the zoombar to work with opera 10. That, or a good touchflo port to the blueangel. Thanks for this, though
This operation is not working with my Touch Pro and Opera Mobile 10 Beta2u enhanced version.
I can't try with this model, sorry
But I think this operation has to work with all HTC mobiles, because it just replaces the original OperaL.exe with another that links to the new Opera 10...
Now, when you click on the globe, what happens?

I've tried this way before using VJBrisk, but it failed for me.
Anyway, I think it's not "comfortable" to copy the entire content of the Opera folder into \Windows, what if you then upgrade to a newer version?
When I tap on the Internet tab is written:
! Opera10-armv4i.exe
The file "Opera10-armv4i" cannot be opened. Either it is...
...restoring this file.
I checked also in registry what is under /HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/DEFBROWSER and it is already with Opera10-armv4i.exe
Is "Opera Mobile 10 Beta2u enhanced version" = Opera10-armv4i.exe ???

I don't know if the enhanced version has the same executable file name, but I guess yes, so check again if the OperaLLNK.lnk file correctly redirects to Opera10-armv4i.exe and remember to place it (the .lnk) in the \Windows folder together with the vjbrisk.exe renamed to OperaL.exe

This file is a ROM file on my system (Touch HD, Orange ROM 1.59.61.2) and it seems it cannot be re-named. Any work-arounds?
Thanks!
Easier to understand instructions!!!
Opera 10 doesn't have the same OperaL.exe file like 9 did. So Touch Flo is hard coded to execute the OperaL.exe file which doesn't exist.
1st off, nothing needs to be changed in the Registry!!!
1. I basically pasted the 'VJBrisk.exe' into the Windows Directory.
2. Renamed 'VJBrisk.exe' to 'OperaL.exe' in the Windows Directory.
3. Went to Program Files\Opera Mobile 10 \Opera10-armv4i.exe (your Opera exe might be named something different. I'm using Opera Mobile 10 Beta3 Repack) and created a shortcut of that exe and copied the shortcut to the Windows Directory.
**If you want to use a different browser or have some other executable launch, just make a shortcut to what you want to launch**
4. Renamed the Shortcut to 'OperaLLNK.lnk'
5. Test that the 'OperaL.exe' now fires off the Opera Browser. If it doesn't, you probably have a typo.
6. Now go to Touch Flo and press the 'Launch Browser' globe icon and now Opera should open up for you! You can also add your new Push pages and they should launch as well.
7. Only problem now is that it opens 2 tabs in the browser, 1st tab of my Start Page like normal, but then on top of that it opens a 2nd tab to the path of 'file://localhost/home'. Anyone know why it does this? It doesn't do this when the browser is launched anywhere else besides the Touch Flo launching of it. Is it maybe looking for AT&T's MEdiaNet home page? If so, where can I restore the link to MEdiaNet's homepage or can I just tell it to go to some other webpage?
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta!

I've been messing with this for hours and finally figured it out...
Don't rename vjbrisk.exe to replace OperaL.exe because it won't work. Instead rename vjbrisk.exe to OperaL.exe in another folder and then COPY that file over the top of OperaL.exe in the Windows folder.
Finally this worked for me. The Windows\OperaL.exe file is locked in ROM and can only be copied over and not renamed over. I guess some Windows Mobile devices don't have this file locked and renaming over works for them.
Confirm success and advice not to do it
I confirm Darkbsoul. The only way to switch to Opera 10 by now is using VJBrisk. The procedure is straightforward and works immediately! No need for a soft reset.
However, as much as I like Opera 10, I will refrain from dumping HTC's original Opera 9.5 build 15316 as my default TF3D browser:
1. The error message is ugly on your face each time you fire up Opera 10 from TF3D.
2. VJBrisk's approach is somewhat slower: you run VJBrisk, which in turn runs Opera 10.
3. I lose my saved Opera 9.5 bookmarks
4. I can't use the nice Opera 10 3X3 start pages grid
I've got some solution, not perfect (and I think not for Sense, but only for TF3D), but it's one way how to launch Opera mobile 10 from internet tab.
Open \Windows\27c65cbd_manila in notepad and there you can add link to any program you want. You should have there a link to Youtube, so just copy&paste it and edit Text, Executable and ImagePath to anything you want. Don't be surprised with the qtc extension used in image path for Youtube, you can use for example PNG and it will work.
hi just want to say thank you, works like a charm on my hd2 with a custom rom that only have internetexplorer cooked in. i installed opera 10 to the device. rename vjbrisk.exe to iexplore.exe and the link to opera10 to iexploreLNK.lnk. then copied both files to my windows folder and bingo i can use the internet tab/favorites of 'htc sense' to start opera. only bad thing is i cant start the real internetexplorer anymore but who cares.

if a file is in rom then you dont have to care about it. files in rom cant be overwritten, so if you copy a file with the same name over a rom file the rom file is still there, its just somewhat 'invisible'. if you want to recover the rom file simply delete the file you copied over it, and the rom file will reapear.

Hi! You rock! This is work perfectly... with opera mini also!
But, how can I remove "file://localhost/Bookmarks" message when I tap the "All bookmarks" button? Thnks!
I would replace one file system in windows folder but it say me "access negate", I saw is a file "read-only" and because of this I haven't the access to edit it.
How I can edit it?

The built-in file manager doesn't trust us
Use something like Resco Explorer or Total Commander and you'll be able to overwrite most files in the windows folder.

New Opera version: download
You know the drill... unpack and copy opera9.exe over the opera9.exe in the \windows folder (preferably using Resco File Explorer)
Changelog: don't know
Is it better than other versions: find out yourself
thank you
Thanks very much
Thanks dude.
Hi, what about the people who do not know the drill? where do i copy the file? and then what do i do? do i have to use resco explorer, i want to use the normal file explorer. i have a T-MO HD2

You have to extract the Opera9 file and copy directly to Windows.
It is all.
Best Regards,
Hi, what you have said is a bit vague. the extrated file from the download is an exe file so dnt i need to run it once i copy it over? and what windows directory? do you mean the windows folder on the device memory? not the opera9 folder in the windows directory?
so your asking i copy the exe file into the windows folder on the device memory and just run the exe? is that what i do?
please explain properly (full file path and instructions)
Thank you very much

Yes you have to copy Opera9 file to the Windows device memory, then you will be asked to overwrite, so you should tam yes.
Afterthat you can normally run Opera web browser but in new version.
just in my head?
is it just in my head or is this much faster!?!
ty gonna try it out

Much faster doing what? Page loading times are about your internet connection are they not?
Faster optimization, screen rotation? Pleaze post !
I copied the file overiding the original and when I try to start opera, it says "Opera Loader" with a red cross which when pressed it exits...
Any thoughts?

I deleted the existing Opera.exe file from the Windows folder and copied this one, but the app won't start. I think it has something to do with the attributes of the new exe file. The ROM attribute is ghosted. Any ideas?
Thanks
Procedure is clear to me. Just overwrite .exe file with new .exe file
But to spare me hazzle and spending one day to revert: does this change my opera-settings which I tweaked in operaconfig or goof them by incompatibility ?
Does this new build support flash better than the old one ?
What EXACTLY can the new build better than the old one ?

I have similar questions,my opera is skinned and as troed mentioned
several operaconfig tweaks including having moved the Cache.
Anyone know whether these will all need re-doing if we upgrade
to newer version ?
In short is it worth the effort just to have a different version number ?

Hey Bobsbbq, do you mean the thumbnail not populating a page image? If so, yes I have. The only way I've found to get the image to show up is to open each favorite site in IE.
