aidil916 - unless it's some kind of ROM update etc, anything that gets installed on the PPC must always use a cab file, even on PC based install. So, start the install, and does add/remove programs or something come up?

Either way, if it installs something to the PPC (i've no idea how the arabizer works), interrupt the installation or somehow stall it. Then use a program like Filetracer or even the XP search tool to find any cabs installed to your pc in the last few minutes. Track down the cab (usually in your temp folder, programs folder or activesync folder) and then take a backup copy of the cab. Then, copy that to your PPC..

Tell me how it goes.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] IMate->WM2k5:
Usually when you perform PC-based installation software asks you for target location but some programs are hard-coded with "\Program Files\ProgramName" path so they will fail to work if you place them to another locations, i.e. to Storage Card

For programs that don't allow you to change target location you can change their registry entries to correct their path from "\Program Files\" to "\Storage Card\Program Files\". Here you will also need to manually move your program to a new location (SD) using Explorer's copy-&-paste functions :)

ps: don't use cut-&-paste because some of your programs may be running and this will cause sharing violation errors

Example, I have program "ABC" installed at "\Program Files\ABC" folder.

1) Using Explorer I navigate to "\Program Files" and COPY "ABC" folder to clipboard

2) Now I navigate to "\Storage Card" and create folder "Program Files"

3) I open newly created folder "\Storage Card\Program Files" and PASTE my "ABC" folder from clipboard here

4) Using Registry Editors I search for "\Program Files\ABC" entries and change them to "\Storage Card\Program Files\ABC"

5) I do soft-reset. If after that program works Ok, I delete "\Program Files\ABC"

Check your activesync's installation location. You will find the cab file within Software name or company folder, like "C:\program files\microsoft activesync\ABC"

Cheers

There are 3 methods i use,

1st is download the CAB file if you can, copy to your PPC and install with a program called CAB Install http://www.s-k-tools.com/fp/viewtopic.php?t=44 which allows you to install the app anywhere you want.

2nd is to run the standard ??.exe PC installation file but without your PPC pluged in. After the ??.exe install file is finished it will normally produces a CAB file on your PC which will copy across to your PPC next time you plug it in. All you need to is to find the CAB file and manually copy it to your PPC and use CAB Install.

The 3rd way is to do the same as 2 above and then use an app called WinCE CAB manager which you can generally modify the CAB files standard installation directory to what ever you want to.

Hope this helps
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] zerimar:
Most software including PC based installs eventually use CAB files. For this I use a small program CabInstl.

So I just got the TMo Note 3. My previous phone was the HTC One. How is all of your speeds doing?

I'm in the greater Los Angeles area. At my work with my HTC One I was getting 1 more bar of service and LTE speeds of about 8Mbps during work hours. I'm a little disappointed to see the Note 3 is only averaging betweeen 2-4Mbps down and surprisingly 5-6Mbps up... I've been running speed test all day for the last 2 days all with similar results. I know I'm in a heavily populated area and even the 5-6 I was getting on my One was modest but 2-4 is just way too slow. Did I get a bad one?

I even changed my apn to:

APN	epc.tmobile.com

Password	blank

Server	wap.voicestream.com

MMSC	http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

Yes, I dropped it in the toilet, right after a wee... Happened an hour ago. It doesn't charge anymore, I'm desperate. Guess it's EOL for my bestest friend... Damn this sucks! Just wanted some sympathy, so I decided to share it here.

It's time for bed, hopefully tomorrow I will find a replacement... Nexus 4? Or a second hand G_N? Cyanogen compatibility is crucial. I don't know, I'm out of ideas. Thanks for listening.

Take out the battery and throw it in a bag of rice for two days... that did the trick for me

Also, if you happen to sell it for parts on eBay, would you please mention where your phone's been? =P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lex_Michdeandroid:
In a bag of rice? Who would want to eat that kind of rice?! :p :beer:

The N5 is what I would like, but I can't be without a phone for that long... I'm going to try that rice thing, but I don't think it's going to save it. Couldn't get the battery out quick enough. It started some weird downloading Andoid target thing, so I guess it shorted one or two things.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geomonroe:
Check a med supply shop that sells hearing aids. They carry desiccant in jars for hearing aids. You could dump it in a zip lock bag and seal it up. Some of the pellets turn blue when the desiccant is saturated. Cook it until it's dry and seal it all up again;)

I don't think using heat in order to dry the device is a good idea. First stage I recommend full disassemble and then rice.

Heat can damage the device. Plastic+heat=melt

Full disassembling the device + a alcohol bath will do the trick.

Disconnect the battery before doing the bath though. The higher the concentration of alcohol the better.

I need both hands when peeing. Heavy stuff! :D

Had a full day without problems, so I guess opening up the device isn't necessary anymore. I'd rather keep it closed when there's no need to open it. Keeps the dust out and sealings as sealed as possible. When the charge problems come back I'll take it apart to put in a new usbportflexthingy that's already on it's way.

Perhaps the Nexus 5 isn't even necessary, I really hope so, because I'm pretty fond of my Gnex, except for the battery... almost twice a day it needs juice...

hi there all - just bought an s3 from someone on gumtree - tried it with couple of different simcards and it worked fine... it had ics on it (csc xxale8) so i though i will change it to jellybean - so following a guide here i have downloaded stock firmware BTU (UK generic) and flashed it using odin. than put a sim in and boot and it asks me for sim network unlock code... any idea what is going on?

FYI i have reset the flash counter before flashing the rom and wiping data and cache

any help?

Some older methods of simlock break after flash. Also latest releases, non of these methods work anyone (the free methods).

I'd imagine you need to buy an unlock code now. If you do, get one that will refund you if it fails

I continue to have a problem with Air Command disappearing. I ended up completely wiping and reflashing along with wiping my internal (which I never did coming to Sacs_N4-N3), everything is running smoother now, and AC was working. Then I tweaked the animation settings (going from .25 on all to 1x, and changing from stock speed in Nova to Relaxed), making sure I paid attention to where the setting were to change back if anything happened. And sure enough, AC disappeared. Even after changing everything back and rebooting I can't get it to come back. Is there anything I can flash/push to system to get it to come back (framework, systemUI) or some setting I should change? And I've tried just toggle off/on in settings with no luck.
