Sorry BongoUser, you misunderstand me. I've read the thread so I understand about (and very much look forward to) auto-installing cab files. When I ask you to expand a little I mean can you tell me how to imbed a cert in a cab file? I assume this involves the use of WinCE Cab Manager?

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] invictive:
I'm not certain, but I think you could probably do it using cabarc? just put the file in the same directory as cabarc and then do into dos and: cabarc N filename.cab _nameoffile.xml

However I am not certain that this will work for what you want to do.

Windows Mobile 6 SDK

I think you're looking for this:

CabSignTool

CabSignTool.exe signs a .cab file and all its executable content (.exe, .dll) with specified certificate(s).

Default Location: C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Tools\Security\CabSignTool

The Windows Mobile 6 SDK, Tools, CabSignTool should be the ticket.

Certificate AutoInstall with HTweakC WMXL Edition

Yesterday, I asked the question “How do I get HTweakC WMXL Edition to Auto-install a certificate file?”

The nice people above gave some input including BongoUser who suggested putting the certificate file inside a cab file so that it can be auto-installed along with all your other cab files.

I found it a little confusing as to how I could do that but after a nights sleep and fresh look at Google I sorted it out this morning.

So, if you want to make a cab file that contains your server certificate you need just a few DOS commands, here’s how…

[Start reading here if you dislike waffle!]

Download the two M$ tools attached and extract to a temp folder (we’ll use C:\cert).

Open a dos prompt and change to the directory containing the cab tools.

C:\>CD c:\cert

Collect the certificate using the SslChainSaver tool:

C:\cert>SslChainSaver.exe mail.yourdomain.biz

Chain contained 1 certificates

All intermediate certs were present from the server.

Intermediate certs are not needed on the device.

Cert 0. Issued to: mail.yourdomain.biz

Certificate XML created. Use "rapiconfig mail.yourdomain.biz.xml" to add the certs to a connected device or create a CAB file.

Ignore that line about “rapiconfig”, that's not what we’re doing.

We need to rename the xml file for the next bit to work.

C:\cert>RENAME mail.yourdomain.biz.xml _setup.xml

Now we make the cab file:

C:\cert>MAKECAB.EXE _setup.xml mailyourdomainbiz.cab

Microsoft (R) Cabinet Maker - Version (32) 1.00.0601 (03/18/97)

Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1993-1997. All rights reserved.

100.00% [flushing current folder]

That’s it. Put the cab file in \Storage Card\AutoInstall\Cabs on your device and send cash to BongoUser for the great tool!

The main source for this post is here. SslChainSaver info is here.

SslChainSaver is just an easy way to make the _setup.xml file. You could make it yourself by copy and paste. Makecab.exe is found in the WinCE SDK and also in the System32 directory in Windows XP. It is included here for convenience.

Nice research coffeevictim! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
There has been so much going on since the last public release of WXML ...the ROM which kicked us all off and running with a WM6 release for the masses ... Kyphur...I am sure you are tracking all the updates/upgrades/tweaks/fixes being found/solved/promoted in the various other threads ... it will be great to see what you come up with for v0.30.

Sorry to ask the inevitable question .. but any timing predictions as to release date?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sjawaji:

I just donated a few bucks to support this development.

How can I access WXML v0.30 Pre Release?

Hello,

I'm very impatient to try this new version of XDA Live!

I actually have the 0.20.1 and it is Fantastic!!!

In 0.30 there will be "Internet Calling" feature?

I need it and I hope yes.

ThanX!!!

And have a nice day!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sergeantash:
Personally then I'd go for the WM6 Black v2.0 Edition - I put it on last night having tested this build on this thread too, personally I think the Black edition is quicker? And includes Internet Calling
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] eagle 1:
Yes, I was running XDA .30 pre-release beta and then tried the Black 2.0. Black 2.0 is much faster and newer than the XDA .30 release. The Black release is also a little more stable.

I did not find that the new HtweakC program in .30 that copied the CAB files at Hard reset to be that much of a help. Nice app, but I found that you only want to put the CAB files that you want in Main Memory to be in the Autoinstall Directory. (which in my case was only 4 out of 32). Because it installs all cab files placed into AUtoinstall into Main Memory. If there was an option to pick where they install it would be great.

Also, the XDA .30 is a little outdated due to all the newer build roms posted in the last 15-20 days or so.

It seems Kyphur has not posted anything in the last 15 days or so, so I hope his move to the new house has gone well and he will be back to the forums soon.

While you are waiting for Kyphur's latest release, why not try out the Black 2.0 release...Runs great and is very stable.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sergeantash:
Totally agree, Black also seems a little slicker, not sure what it is but I was more satisfied with my phone once I'd flashed it to black.

Go for it, looking forward to the next Black release! Got to comment though, still disappointed with WM6, there isn't a single major noticable difference between it and WM5?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] elivne:
is everything ok with kyphur

Is everything ok with kyphur

I'm a bit worried about the guy, didn't see him here for more then 3 weeks.

does anyone know him outside of here? did any one here from him?

Is the dude ok?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
He may just be busy unpacking and cooking?

If he's heads down trying to sort through all that went on with Black 2.0, then he probably hasn't had time to come over and post. I would assume that he isn't socializing since he's too busy.

I haven't PM'd him because I respect his right to be left alone. When in coding mode, some people focus so deeply they don't want any sort of disturbances. It's called "in the zone".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diaftia:
Does anyone know if this release is still even happening? I only say this because nobody has heard from Kyphur in a couple of weeks. Lets face it, he is doing this for free and just might not have the time to devote to it anymore with everything he has going on. Very understandable. It has been a couple of weeks since anyone has heard from him, and 3 weeks since it was originally scheduled for release. Very possible he could have other obligations than doing free stuff for all us greedy bastards. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mkent_barbados:
I disagree, I flashed Black 2.0 and after two days went back to WMXL .20 - didn't like all the extra stuff Black installed (especially the crappy PDF viewer) or the black theme (I know you can change but then your dialer doesn't match). Anyways, just wanted to say I was happy on .20 but would love for .30 to come out, as keeps getting better!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
I agree. I tried Black 2.0 and went back to WXML 2.01 right away. I hated Black. Now I have been playing with the new Cingular Black build and I have liked that one so far. I still have some issue with the Cingular Black with having to run the proxy disable before surfing the internet with PIE everytime. I have to say the WXML has been the most stable of all ROMs I have gotten from XDA.

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasjamming:
For your information, Cingular BLACK is still my ROM (based on BLACK 2.0) but with Cingular customizations for those cingular clients.

So I am unsure how you hated BLACK when you are still using black! Its the same build from my source.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
honestly champ... how about you actually read the forums!!! the Cingular ROM was and is still being based on Black 2.0!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
I'm confused..... Why would it be cingular black if it wasn't using black as the base?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] curveconcepts:
ya know, if you check his profile, his last activity on this site was March 28th. Hope something didn't happen to him.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] coffeevictim:
He's probably just having problems getting an ISP for his new house. They always seem to find a way to have you offline for longer than is reasonable.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
Or maybe?

He's busy in the kitchen and is only corresponding with his 0.30 beta group?

He got on long enough to state how his move went, and was going back in the kitchen.

Or maybe n00bs are PM'ing him while he's working and he's seen how JJ was bugged.

I could however agree with the ISP theory. Hell, I even worked for the local phone company and could only get ISDN after the move. No cable or DSL available. Even I couldn't get the love... for about a year!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
he has magically disappeared... hehehehe...

no one has heard from him in 3 weeks or so apparently...

things are looking grim for you Xda-live users....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakirkla:
Is it safe to assume there will be no Public release?

Not complaining, just wondering. Of all the WM6 OS's I've tried, XDA Live has been the most stable for me, so I was hoping for a public release of v0.30. Looks like I'll just stick with v0.20 for the future.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
I don't know what could have been the difference between the two. I had issues with the black version and almost no issue other than the proxy issue which was prob my isse cause of the Cingular settings I like to use.

Now I will say that I should not have used the word hated. That was a bad choice of words. I don't mean to dis anyone's work here.

I've played with pretty much every rom released in the last two months. It seems to me that most of these ROMs are very specific to the way a user uses their Hermes.

Jas I like your work and how you contribute to the forums. The only thing I would like you to consider is that you take things way to personal. I say this as I have read pretty much every post on the hermes in the last two months. No I have not posted a lot cause I just don't have the experience some of you have and I don't have a lot of time on my hands running the engineer dept for a metro mesh wifi company, two kids, and a wife.

I underestand that you do all this for free. I like communities like this. I hate it when lists like this go hostile.

Once again I'm sorry I used the word hate is was not really what I ment when I wrote it. I didn't have a lot of luck with your version. I didn't take it personaly that it wasn't for me. It fell slited that it didn't work well for me. I'm sorry if CUSTEL's version did. I know that his version were based on black. They did seem to run smoother for me. You should not take these things some damn personal.

OK go ahead an start flaming away and get all angry at me now.

It's almost like Kyphur lost his ability to cook, and has taken off to avoid the public humiliation. Oh, wait, that couldn't happen.. Could it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
LOL, but I doubt it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] digitalfx:
WOW...Im starting to get worried. I have .30 and no emails either. I sure hope Kyphur is ok? Its odd that we have not heard anything from him at all.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LegolasTheElf:
Oh, yeah... That would mean that Kyphur knew how to cook to begin with....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ChaoticDruid:
This coming from the person who posted lvsw's rom and quickly put up a donations link, then you WERE working on a rom from all indications.... since even noobs flamed you for posting someone elses work, and where is your cooked rom now??

Just stfu, you stupid asshole, and try to do something helpful around here.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
Hey posts like that are not productive in this forum. Lets not stoop to that level.

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] flipside101:
Play times over children lets get back to behaving like adults, this inter rom bikering and sniping just isnt productive. Personally i give props to all of them each rom helps the next build get better and better and the fact that we have 3 or 4 roms on the go means more choice and that can only be better for the community at large.

Now lets get back to the waiting , flashing and enjoying cycle that we know and love.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rainydaze:
I agree, wtf did the little elf and walshieau finally remove there noses from jas's ass long enough to take a look at Kyphurs thread?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
what ****? do you actually have something to say to me or just like leeching and stabbing people in the back???

i simply posted in here to inform you loyal xda-live users that it doesnt look like kyphur is coming back...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rainydaze:
really? I would have thought you could have done that by simply saying (maybe Kyphur isnt coming back?) instead of the diabolical

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dusank:
(5 minutes ago)

The investigation is still in progress. So far it looks like an alien abduction.

But also "they" strongly suspect a group called HTC is involved in the disappearance of man known to us only as Kyphur. Suspects are still under heavy surveillance at the HTC Base at Guantanamo Bay.

:)

We'll just sit and wait, it's not that hard...

Cheers
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] digitalfx:
I have a friend, his cousin works in New Mexico, and he told his girlfriend that Kyphur was abducted by a group that has ties to the CIA and that they now have him in a training camp in Iraq. The girlfriend also said that they spotted some futuristic looking aircraft in the same training camp and that the men that left the spaceship went into a room with Kyphur and thats the last time he was seen.

Take this with a grain of salt, but this friend is usually a very reliable source.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
I think the alien abduction theory has merit. I mean, look at the hoody he wears. What's he trying to hide?

I wonder if it's not so much an abduction, but a return to his own planet?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Martinhdk:
Maybe we should have some kind of a memorial wall...."For Those Who Got Lost To The Struggle Against Microsoft"

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] icemantwilight:
Well if he's got the ****s with us I wish he'd said so.. otherwise I hope he's ok..

He had some neat themes, alarm tones, ring tones etc.. if anyones still running one of his roms could you possibly extract them please? :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pnt7:
What I noticed was that when he released his WM6 his was pretty much the only game in town for the Hermes. Everyone flocked to his thread with questions and bug reports and, from what I saw, he got a little overwhelmed.

Then others stepped up and started releasing their own cooked ROMs, and did so with more frequesnt updates and newer builds, and then we havent heard from him since.

Im sure he got his own reasons and his own life away from this place. Maybe he figured others were stepping up so he could take a break?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] digitalfx:
personally I feel its pretty crappy for him to take our donations and not have enough respect to at least send us an email saying "go to hell, I cant take it anymore" or "sorry, but my life is to hectic for now" or even "eat sh*t"....but he just disappeared. Pretty lazy if you ask me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasjamming:
ummmm,,

the last i heard

kyphur was hiding in a spider hole (on the moon)

his orange jacket is actually hermetically sealed.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xultar:
Guys remember he just purchased and moved into a new home. I'm sure you guys have done that and it takes quite a bit to get settled. He doesn't work for XDA so I'm sure he's gotta get his job and family straight.

He'll be back.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hdbueller:
Excellent point!! I moved 3 years ago and still cannot find some things......LOL

But seriously folks, he will be back when he is settled in and finds all of his ****, I'm sure. Give him a break.........

Just my $.04 worth.....Later
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cavallino:
he could find some minutes to go to a cyber cafe and update us on the situation, he completely and misteriously disappeared! Many people even sent donation for his project.... A moderator of xda-devs doesnt leave like that!

according to his profile his last activity was 07-05-2007 08:04 PM...a week ago! so... why this silence?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xultar:
Maybe he is ill. Let's not diss the guy. People have lives families, loved ones, jobs all that stuff. Let's just hope he's o.k. He'll ping us when he can.

HTweakC error on Hard reset

I have had the opportunity to hard reset my 8525 twice since installing the .3 WXML. Once with the AutoInstall directory in place on my storage card. The other was with my AutoInstall directory renamed. It seems that this HTweakC error only appears if the AutoInstall directory does not exist.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Karzi:
At the very least a partial restore should work.

The OS is the same build? So it should work if you did a registry restore but I imagine you will cancel out some of the fixes.

So not recommended.

Restore the prog files then at least you get to keep the reg keys and settings for the programs after you have re installed them (some of them at least).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kyphur:

Also does it use the ril.dll and rilgsm.dll from the cingular rom? i would like to see if i can get PTT to work on this one as well... i feel that i am near getting this to work on some of these roms.. and looks like we are close to getting it to work on the Black edition from jasjamming... it has been a painstaking process but this battle is near end, i can feel it!
