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

I have been trying to trun a few apps like BeMario, and LightSaber etc, bother requiring .NET Compact Framework.
here is the details from the diamond2;
Error
BeMario.exe
MissingMethodException
The Application requires a newer version of the Microsfotr .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device.
I have downloaded what i though to be the framework, but it is all windows installers in .msi packages. I have tried this http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en and the 2.0, but both are for Windows desktop, rather than mobile. I'm confused on how to update now.
Cheers for help
You probably need .net 3.5 on your phone.
Try installing from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=373721

cHEERS FOR THE LINK, I JUST INSTALLED NETCFV3.5.wm.armv4i.cab and it works great now :d Thanks
Hello Guys,
I have WM 6.5 and seems that my net framework doesn't work. 3.7 was preinstalled but when i was trying to install a program that need Net Framework 3.5 i had an error message. I installed it, as well as .Net configuration in order to switch from 3.7 to 3.5 but still have the same problem.
Anybody has an experience on it? Any help it will be highly appreciated!!!
I am running the WM6.1 by gregory ROM and none of the .net apps are working, i get an error msg asking to quit the application, ive tried reinstalling .net CF 3.5 but no use
I think you need CF 2.0
so i would have to downgrade?
Actually some app need previous ver of .NET even ver 1.1. But in your case the problem may be different. If you are using a wm std. and trying to run a PPC app some error may occured. In that case any of .NET ver could not solve it.
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).
