I realize this is likely a dumb question but this is it. I downloaded a .rar file then unpacked it to a folder on my desktop. At that point I moved it to my HTC Rhodium touch pro 2 memory card. What is the best way to get this .cab installed on my phone?
Thanks in advance

click to my signature and download the .cab
But you can't get the style of T-mobile!
But you can download the skin to use=)

Cabs are installed from device.
Exe's are installed from PC.
Thanks,but i am a real dummie
If i downloaded the cab or exe file on my pc how can i install this on my device?
My device is connected via usb to my laptop.
Thanks
exe files are executed and they launch activesync and auto unpack the self extracting zip get hold of the cab file inside and copy it to the pda where it launch it installing the program
cab files are 1 downloaded directly to the pda or copied to the pda by 1 putting it in the file sync dir or dragdropping it to the pda filesystem which one access using the explore device
button in activesync
or 2 copied to the microSD card using a flash card reader which is then moved and put into the pda
cab files autoinstall when doubleclicked on in pda filesystem

i have same problem
well, i also ever got the same problem
Sometimes, HTCHomeSetting.xml is not made to be put on windows folder but on Manilla gfx folder. And that used to be my problem
try to reinstal manilla2D, and use M2DC to backup and restore your default skin, i hope it's work
Your HTCHomeSetting.xml file is messed up.
Here is the stock XML file. Turn off M2D (untick TouchFLO in your today settings), drop this xml file in your windows folder and try reloading M2d.
I always keep the stock XML for instances like this. Even sometimes the restore doesn't fix itm2d issues.

What kinda device are you installing this on?
How are you using to transfer the files? Activesync? WMDC? Total Commander?
Are you manually applying the theme or using M2D Customizer?

its a tmobile wing/ htc herald I put the files on my sd card throu activesync and then tryed to copy them to the windows folder on my phone memory. Not sure on how to do this at all I have figured out alot of other stuff just not the theme stuff
You shouldn't have to drop the XML on your SD card. Just browse for the windows folder on your device and drop it in there right away. If it doesn't let you drop it in the Win folder, then I would drop it on my SD card and use software called ''Total Commander''. TM is pretty much a file explorer but will let you change system files that would normally error.
Being I dont know all your circumstances, this is what I would do and how I have it setup on my phone. Works flawless as well. I can change themes in seconds.
If that XML file didn't cure your problems then I'm assuming you have issues elsewhere as well.
First I would remove M2D and reinstall it. Once you have that working again, download and install Manilla 2D Customizer...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
Create a new folder on your storage card and name it ''M2d Themes''. M2D customizer works with a file extension of ''.mtdct'' Some skinners will create there theme's file with this extension for you. It is nothing more then a zip file with the extension renamed.
If the theme's files your trying to install is compressed into zip format, just rename the file from ''.zip'' to ''.m2dct''. Drop the file into your new ''M2D Themes'' folder on your storage card, open up M2D Customizer and browse for the themes ''m2dct'' file you wish to install. Click ''Apply Theme'' and it does all the work for you.
I must have 30 themes in my M2D Themes folder and as I feel the need for a change, I'll load M2D Customizer and switch themes. It's a piece of cake!
Hope this helps.
My icons don't update correctly when I apply a new theme using M2DC...Someone mentioned that there are v1 and v2 themes but I can't for goodness sake distinguish between them. Apparently some hacked versions of M2D will only correctly use v2 themes...Any ideas/suggestions? I have searched all over but can't seem to find a solution other than overwriting the HTCHome...xml file...
Been searching a couple days how to install rar files on to my Verizon XV6900 vogue with WM6.1. I am attaching one of the files I am tring to install, for general help. I can seem to install in activesync, from withing sorage card, etc.
Thanks, in advance
Dave,
Unless you have pocket Rar installed on you device you cant install as its zipped. Download a free RAR extractor on your PC, unpack it and you will find your CAB or files inside...... simply copy them/it to your PPC and voila
pocket rar is installed
I did zip the file to upload it, the forum would not accpt it in rar form. When I put the rar on my device ((XV6900 vogue verizon) WM6.1 ROM 3.14.605.1), I was able to unpack it but there was no cab. I upoaded it tthinking somebody would check the contents and help me out.

Sorry about that Dave, i mis-understood what you were trying to do It would help me if u gave me the link where you got the rar file as it would probably contain instructions as to where on ur device you need to copy the unzipped files to (like /windows etc). Let me know where you got the rar file from.
cant find original thread I d/l from
It was from rstoyguy

[B]Hello all! i ve got an Htc tytn2. can u plz tell me in detail how to install cab files and Home 2
Thank you all[/B]
Install cab files is quite straightforward. Once you have copied it to your device, you use your file manager to find it. Then you double click to 'open' the file. It will start the installation form then onwards. The same goes for Home2, it also comes as a cab file. Customizing Home2 is something different, but have a look at comunity.pointui.com where you'll find all the answers.
