[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bei60:
Yeah so it's kind of a strange title but I'll explain:

My phone dropped from about knee high. It has a great spigen armor case and no damage was done but I added this line just because maybe that's where things went bad.

Also, I changed it's battery a couple weeks ago.

Anyway, I was watching a video when all of the sudden my phone just turned itself off (about a day or two since it's dropped, so I don't think that was the problem because I never had any problems with it). I thought it might have been my battery but I changed it back to my old one and still nothing has changed.

The problem actually is that I hold the power button and it won't turn on. But if I do it while shaking it or hitting it against the palm of my hand, then it turns on, displayed the Google logo and then turns off after about 2 seconds.

I tried holding down the volume key and still nothing, it just won't boot.

When I plug it into a charger, it displays the Google logo and then reboots, and this problem is repeated. Logo, reboot, logo reboot, etc.

I really don't know what to do, please help me guys :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Sounds like a stuck power button. It's not that uncommon. You might have to get it replaced at a cell repair store.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bei60:
I disagree. When the phone turns on, it starts to load the Android logo after the Google logo but for exacly half a second and it always turns off at the same point.

The button clicks, and it is very easily pressed. I also tried to push it back with a small screwdriver after I opened the back cover and still, no change.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
When the phone is off plug it to the charger. If it keeps restarting at google logo then I am 90% sure it is a power key problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dicecuber:
How do you know if your phone is male or female?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldubs:
Huh? Another useless post by dicecuber
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dicecuber:
Read the thread title
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bei60:
Well, looked into it and it was indeed the power key. I started clicking it very rapidly while it was booting and I managed to turn it on.

Now everytime I click it, it either turns the screen on and off as if I pressed it twice, or it just gets stuck and does that thing it did earlier with the bootup.

Is there a way I can fix this myself instead of taking it to a repair shop?
[General Questions and Answers] DR400:
hi !

Most of our software are .exe files to be run from a PC and to be installed then on the PPC.

When one wants to perform a HR away from PC, it is then hard to quickly re-install all apps.

Having cab files stored in the SD card is the solution but what to do when no cab files are available only exe ?

My question is then the following : is there a possibility to extract CAB files from .exe files ?

Thx in advance
[General Questions and Answers] Bonusbartus:
Hi,

Often the .exe is just a self extracting archive which you can open with winrar;)

doesn't always work, just right-click on the .exe en choose open with winrar...

also, when you try to install an exe file, the .cab is extracted and moved to you phone, that means you should be able to find the cab somewhere and copy it...

most of the time in \program files\microsoft active sync\(appname)

also, when you install an app, some of them ask you where to install it on your pc, in that directory you can find the cabs you need:)

now I'm just looking for a program that can make an cab installer that can be run on my phone and installs every cab to SD...

I found one, but it doesn't work... teksoft airwizard 1.1...

[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
at times one can also just rename it from .exe to .zip
[General Questions and Answers] mcgogo:
yes copy from activesync folder is possible but i have the same problem only with this difference. On my working computer i have administrator rights and folder Program files is blocked for me. I need a program to extract cab form exe. WinRar does not work. Sorry for my bad english :-)
[General Questions and Answers] X_Farhad:
well try this: after cab transferred to your device, don't install it (and don't cancel!!) , go to Windows\AppMgr , and see if a folder with the name of that program exists with a cab file in it ...

try SettingsSaviour ... it has a silent install feature with which you can install many cabs at once, downside is silent isntall can't be used to install programs on SD, you'll have to manually choose Storage Card for each program...
[General Questions and Answers] DR400:
Very comprehensive explanations ... thanks to all of you ! I gonna try and report if any further problems.

--------------------------------------------

After trying to change the extension of the .exe, I have to report that it works with one of the files I wanted to CABized.

To MODO : do I need to stamp this thread as SOLVED ?
[General Questions and Answers] hotdog53:
What I did to keep installed cab files was I created a new folder in my storage card and named it "CABS", then I did a registry tweak to where the cab file was not deleted after installation. Now whenever I download a cab file, I "save as", CABS folder(from the dropdown box) on my storage card.
[General Questions and Answers] Knocksock:
Just wants to mention a "universal" unpacker called UniExtract - http://legroom.net/software/uniextract - it can extract many .EXEs made by install tools. Also - check out MSCEInf - which can analyze an CAB-file - http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/msceinf.shtml
[General Questions and Answers] hotdog53:
Are you able to open a exe file on your device? 90% of the programs I like have exe files and I always get not a valid pocket pc application. I've even tried to rename exe to cab or zip, but doesn't work. The file extension being downloaded is shaded out in the file type box in the download dialog box and cannot be changed. I've tried programs to convert exe files to other extensions, but all they do is convert after the downloaded exe files have already been installed.
[General Questions and Answers] mugglesquop:
thats because they are exe files that are supposed to be run on a normal PC. You download the exe to a PC, then when you have your Phone connected via Activesync, run the exe and it will install on your phone.

Alternativly, use WinRar on your PC to extract the exe, and copy the .cab files to your phone, then open them. (this does not always work, not all exe files are extractable)
[General Questions and Answers] cf222111:
My solution is:

1) keep PDA disconnected (no active sync session)

2) install exe as usual and, when standard installation dialog will appear, go on (later cab installation will begin when you'll connect phone to pc)

3) open regedit.exe

4) go to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AppMgr\Apps

5) there you'll find a list of installable cabs via active sync

6) under each application, the value ListCabFiles is the name of cab file and the value InstallDir is its position of file system.

Remember to uninstall exe after you copy/move the cab file (or delete application key) otherwise installation of cab files will start on next activesync session!!

Simple, do you agree?
[General Questions and Answers] mugglesquop:
yeh... sure :p i cant use activesync, so i just extract the exes :D seems easy enough
[General Questions and Answers] jpawciosr:
I use a program called pocketRAR like winRAR but for mobile win -extract files- get cab and run its that easy just did it with this calc.exe
[General Questions and Answers] terrykb:
I have just used uniextract to unpak my Pocket informant, I think this utility will be a life saver for all those files that i can't get as CABS. I have a lot of problems with active sync but can easily transfer to SD card with card reader or WM5Storage.

Thanks you so much :D
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
exe programs which use activesync

always get cabs from the install programs

if just renaming the exe to zip don't let you extract the cab file manualy

an installation on a pc without a pda connected to active sync would leave the cab files somewhere so next time the pda is connected the cabs can be transfered

search for *.cab and find the one you're looking for on the computer
[General Questions and Answers] Mr. Megiddo:
Ran the .exe, found the cab, copied it.

Thanks.

Oh and UniExtract looks like a great program so I'll probably be using that next time.
[General Questions and Answers] + Que PPC:
NOT ALL

Not all the apps can run on the SD... thats for sure

but always you can... use setingsaivour BTW you can edit some cabs that arent sign trusted or only read with cab manager and edit the cab to apply the default installation or tell it that you dont want to choose set default main or SD... save it and tadaaaa!

I always do that... change .exe to .rar or .zip see inside extract the cab and copy it to my Cab folder on sd... always edit the sd config... and run the User customization ! :cool:
[General Questions and Answers] thedeportee:
this is not only easy, but it works flawlessly,

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] khrizdiel:
why don't you try 7zip for pocket pc? is the best way and quick cuz you ccan estract your cab files right on your ppc

just go to menu and extract, works for executables for windows
[General Questions and Answers] Just about right:
Not to get off subject but teksoft is just one way. I know there is a nother and I can't remember where it was, but I'll keep looking for the cab install program and let you know where it is or provide a link, if I find it.
[General Questions and Answers] Cotys:
Cab

I'm using Sashimi to auto install. I need cab files on the phone to do this. I have one installer that is an .exe and does not cotain a cab file when I open it.

I ran the installer without the phone attached as someone had recommended. I then searched for .cab updated today. I found it in C:\Program Files\Microsft Activesync\"My Program Name". There are folders with .cabs for each of the .exe intallers I had ran.
[General Questions and Answers] nikolay88:
Hello,

I'm quite new as I got my HTC HD2 two days ago. And I find that those explanations you give - to install .exe on my PC and then the Active sync will do the rest - just do not work for me. I have a dictionary that I really need but all I do is to install it on the PC. I searched for a .cab file but such doesn't exist :( PLEASE help me how to make this .exe file to work on my HTC
[General Questions and Answers] Eatemadi:
Nice, got the files!
[General Questions and Answers] toviaheli:
Back to the original question in spirit

I have a similar problem and unixtractor and other other variations i've tried will not let me extract the contents of the .exe file. Any other thoughts besides those programs already listed?

I've tried:

UniExtractor

XN Resource Editor

Reshack

7z

WinRar

WinZip

I've tried changing the files extension from .exe to .zip as well.

Hi All,

So 2 years ago I went to cyanogenmod 10.2, twas great, but I am looking to return to a stock phone. I was able to reset the binary counter, but I can not seem to be able to flash any of the stock t-mobile s3 roms or recovery roms i have found, I just get failed errors. I was able to restore my phone to the original cyanogenmod upgrade I made using a nandroid backup, but I have not clue how to step back to stock samsumg s3 t-mobile.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially as I managed to temporarily softbrick my phone last night, I was finally able to fix that by re-flashing CWM Recovery using Odin.

Thanks

PS: on this current backup I am on, I am not getting any network access, just wifi.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiltz:
So I had rooted my S6 edge yesterday and install adaway but it noticed a lot of pages would not load up at all with it on, like food network for one, so I uninstalled it and installed adfree and still the same issue, in both cases if I went into the apps and reverted them back the pages loaded fine. Now the weird thing is this is specifically an issue on that phone alone, I've never had an issue before, I have adfree on my Shield Tablet and it will load the exact same page just fine, even when it's internet connection is thru the phone via wireless tethering. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this problem and if there's a way to fix it?

I have not installed adaway so excuse my ignorance, but why not just install firefox and use the adblock edge add-on? I'm curious why there is a need for adaway? Does adaway just block ads on the native android browser or does it block ads as well on apps?

Mainly because I don't like the Firefox browsers, I like chrome much better as it actually syncs between all my browsers, especially my pc side I use chrome there as well. And yes, adaway blocks ads in every app, not just browsers.

I removed the default calendar app after I installed lollipop because I figured the google calendar app was enough. I think removing the default apps broke google calendar sync (calendar is not an option for syncing in the google account settings).
