[Q] WP7 Mui Editor? :confused: - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm trying to create a language pack for the WP7... I found some s000 files, some mui files after extracting the imgfs.
How can i edit these files? What is the best way to do this? Do i have to do something special after editing?
Thanks for your help!

Visual Studio

Hi, I tried to open some WP7 mui files in Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone and it tells me:
"There is no editor available for 'xxx.mui'. Make sure the application for the file type (.mui) is installed."
I also read somewhere that you must rename the file to .dll and than open them but when I do it tells:
"The following components could not be browsed:" and nothing else.
I read posts about WM6 mui files but I wonder how can i edit WP7 mui files. Should I have full version of Visual Studio?

How do i translate wm6 rom to other language ?

Hey guys.
I got a kitchen and dump all the files from my 80040000-OS.nb.
And now i want to translate the hole rom to sample-chinese, how can i do that?
I saw an article from here, it said i can download the emulator file from microsoft, and change all the language file name to 0409, then copy them to my dump folder.
But i didn't want to do that, i want to still keep the language file name like 0804. What will i do? Modify the default.hv and user.hv? Or some other way i can do?
I just want to translate my rom to sample-chinese use 0804 file not 0409 file, can somebody help me?
anybody can answer my question ?
Get all the mui files for your language (may be from emulator but be sure to have right build). hv files will have the language settings. Convert the hv files to rgu and search them through for language settings. You may need to search through each line in the rgu. Then convert the rgu back to hv and use them along with the mui files (can delete the ENU mui files).
This is not impossible but will need lot of patience and testing time. Good Luck
only edit .hv files and replace the mui files is ok ?
need other thins to do ?
Or somebody can give me anohter way to translate my rom ?

If you would have done a simple search on the forum (thats all I did to find this thread) you would have found this.

CAB File for different Devices

Hi folks
I am a newby and I have a general question for the CAB files for windows mobile devices.
Is it possible to create a CAB File which contains different sections for different devices.
For example my Cab file should create a few registry entry. Registry entry 1 to 5 is for HTC device, registry entry 6-10 for Samsung devices and 11-20 for all device.
Is there a possibility to create a CAB file who is creating the registry entries like I wish?
Cheers Tom
No. Cabs use to have support for different processor types like MIPS and SHA but today everyone uses ARM.
To do what you want you need ether to use an exe or to put a setup.dll in the cab that will recognize the device via its OEM string (SystemParametersInfo) and write the needed registry.
Is there some information available how to use or create a setup.dll file?
Cheers Tom
CAB and DLL files
You will find the DLL files that may be missing or corrupted on your computer. You can free download on internet at no cost! It’s very useful. If you're using Windows XP or Windows Vista, then your working system has fixed support for opening CAB files. However, if you right-click on items in a CAB file, you won't see all the same options you'd see for a file in a usual folder. This shows that it is not a real folder.
Hi Smithmark
I do not understand you post. I think you are talking about something else.
Please read my question above.
cheers Tom
This will tell you everything you need to know provided you can code in C/C++.

[Q] How to edit a cab file?

Hiya
So I figured that i better go a learn how to use this UC that i find extremly clever - however there's a few cab's that i would love to change abit to my use, for instance dont make it install all the apps its trying and so on...
However i dont really know where or how read the file - ive downloaded WinCE trial version and oped the cab, but wich file type does what and so on? Ive tried abit, deleting some program files however i still need to edit the install files to tell the cab not to install the program at all, so are there anybody out there who can guide me abit on the right direction?
And es ive allready searched this site and google, but i havnt found anything usefull :?

Which program is it that you're trying to edit?
Have you tried editing the config file that lists the cabs to be installed?

If you by config file means the xml file then yes - so far so good - however now im having trouble rebuilding the cab - ive tried several times using both winrar and alZip but i cant seem to rebuild the file correctly - it dosnt even have the right size even though all ive done is to extract the files and rebuild em - what am i doing wrong?
Perhaps im just too dumb to get it - but when i open the cab file in WinCE it dosnt seem to display the _setup.xml at all - so how do i edit that file and use WinCD to rebuild the cab file?
//M
Bump!
//M
use any Cab manager to do that
or cabwiz (microsoft command line utilty)
also try this : http://nedge2k.com/cab-o-matic
or, you could PM the files and i'll cab'm up

Hmm i allready have WinCE - i just dont know how to change the cab and repack it, perhaps you could help on that?
Ive also seen that link under my search - however the site just says: "down for bug squashing..." so not much help there anyway
Thx for the offer - however the main reason is i want to learn how to do it properly
CabWiz i has been unable to find for download :?

to edit a cab, you need to have the WCM file. you can also unpack it using a Package Creator (v2.7) makes the changes needed, and create the cab again with the modifications using your CECabManager

Hmm yea i understand that much - however i fail to see how i can edit anything in WinCE when i dont have the xml file when i open the cab? I do understand the i need to unpacvk the cab, ive dont the with different programs, ive also edited the xml file to fit my request but i simply cant repack the cab with my edited xml file and get it to work? What am i doing wrong?
//M
CeCABManager supports importing information from an *.inf file.. not xml files..
you can just provide the info on the cab to the app and it'll pack it for you..

Mui files and kitchen

I 've started recently to work with the kithcen found here, for DIamonds and winMo 6.5.
I also found some interesting post with mui files here.
The question is how can these mui files be used with a kitchen like ervious visual kitchen to produce a localized version of windows mobile rom?

Ervius visual ROM kitchen uses sub folders for different localities. The MUIs should all be in the form somefile.dll.XXXX.mui where XXX is the locale. If you create new folders for the locale (I think ervius visual kitchen just uses XXXX e.g. 0409) using the files ending in XXXX.mui with your files, instead of the similarly named files using whatever the old locale was, and then cook it, it should work (you'll need to change the locale in ervius visual kitchen, and remember to replace OEM_Lang_0409).
OK, here goes nothing...

Good luck!
He he!!
Something went terribly wrong!
The new ruu_signed.nbh file is 7.985 kb!!
It must be the tiniest ROM ever created!!
I attach a logfile by Ervious Kitchen.

7.985kb would be awesome... Would leave lots of room!
What about the \EXT\Diamond\COMMON\External_Packages folder contents?
There are many 0409 folders and mui files there.
What can I do?

If those contain 0409 files, you'll need to put the equivalent of whatever language you want in there...
I attach the log of the Kitchen Build batch file..

Looks like you've replaced a file with a folder... In the SYS\21725\SHARED\0408\AdobeFlash_LANG_0408\flashresource.dll.0408.mui\ folder, do you have "flashresource.dll.0408.mui"?
It's there.
Does it matter that its 0408 contents are copied from 0409?

Where are the files ?

Hi guys, I have this ambition to change the symbols in call history with ones that are colored.
I know that for this some Manila files should be changed, but I don't know where to start the search and what exactly to look for, so any advises would be more than appreciated. thanks
Hi there, files you're looking for are into windows directory, unfortunatly are marked as "read only" and the easiest way to replace them using Resco Explorer. Althought you can find .cab file here here.
Installing this you can keep original files into backup folder end restore when needed.
Bye
The cab is also on XDA forum but it replace the icons on phone menu not in the history...so I assume that the file for history is another one...this file I'm looking for but don't know how to find it...
You have to find and change some graphic file in windows directory. I'm using dutty's R5 so can't help you better.
Those files are located in phcanOverbmp.dll

I'm sure, but you need Unsigner.exe and ResHacker to replace/extract those files.
Ok, I found the dll and the resource files inside but I believe that this is for WM phone call history not the Manilla call history right...?
I found the files (Manila files) who is interested in replace them look for :
