This just worked, very straightforward and easy to do, the video just gives you more confidence you are not about to 'brick' you new device!!

Thanks to all the worked this out.

My shift is Chinese version. Can I do enable it with this Shiftpack????:confused:
[Shift General] roger2046:
can be use in chinese version

Yes.

But the office mobile cannot install. Coof diff lang

Thank to everyone make it work !
[Shift General] StefanoR:
After having followed this and other threads in "silence" for the past two weeks (since I got my Shift), I would now like to add my big kudos to Paul from MoDaCo (and those that enabled him to get there) for the excellent job done! :)

I followed the steps in the video and everything worked out fine. WM player works (used the ShiftPack), OM did not, but I installed an Italian version and now I am able to use all three apps without a hitch.

When someone will have found a way to use the SD slot (and GPS, but that's not too important for me), this machine will be the only one I

will

be carrying around.

I still smile remembering a client's face when I extracted the Shift from my bag and did a complete, 52-slide presentation with their conference room projector!
[Shift General] tessa25:
Is there anyone in the Loveland/Fort Collins area of Colorado that can lend me their sim card for 5 minutes so I can liberate my shift? I tried copying the liberate .cab file to the snapvue side by installing it as a certificate as someone else mentioned. But even though the file is on the snapvue side I cannot get the extension to change from .cer to .cab. I've renamed it to liberate.cab, but snapvue thinks it's called liberate.cab.cer.

Thanks.
[Shift General] pitt1983:
active a simcard from an operator.

did not cost so much..
[Shift General] tessa25:
Don't you have to sign up for a monthly data plan? I tried my friends sim card, but he only has voice and text messages. I checked out Go phones, but they do not include data, just voice and text messages.

Thanks.

USB tool Connection problem

Hi, wondering if anyone could help, I've ran the easy WinMo upgrade for my shift. The first time I did it, I was able to connect to vista but afterwards have not been able to. I have removed all softwares, reset both SnapVue and Vista and everything in between...no luck. Would could I be doing wrong...I have the usb tool in snap vue but it does not connect. Any help/suggestion will be appreciated.
[Shift General] Pfeffa-rah:
Hi,

I had a similar problem but maybe it's not the same.

Check out the thread about "USB tool keeps disconnecting".

[Shift General] feyisetan:
Sync Connectivity

Thanks a lot, good to play around with these things, even sometimes when you don't really know what you're doing. I unchecked the avdvance usb functionality in WM side and now I can connect, thanks fior the info. Although when I have sync connectivity, it automatically disconnects my 3g internet connection, I'm sure someone will suggest the solution. but at least I can install to my WM now.
[Shift General] Alexno1:
Where is...

where is download a shiftpack
[Shift General] genesis:
hi guys! just arrived from singapore where i bought my shift....im still exploring it for now but the liberation of snapvue to full wm is a great develpment for this device. but before i jump, i need to know how to back up the present software set up so that i can still avail of the warranty from htc. thanks brothers!
[Shift General] snorlax:
No worry

Don't worry, if something goes wrong, since the ROM is not modified by this process, a "simple" hard reset will revert everything to the initial SnapVue !

But if you really want to dump the ROM, look for the thread written by pof in this forum...

WM office doesnt work

I have strange problem - WM office doesn't work at all. I can see applications icons at Programs but could not open excel, word or ppt files or launch excel, word or ppt programs. I'm from Russia and my shift running russian WM - maybe that's the problem? ANybody knows decision? Sorry for bad English....
[Shift General] snorlax:
Did you install it ? Because links are empty after a "liberation", you have to install the Office Shiftpack...

Phone is not Working

I installed phone but it wont work.... any tips that I should do?
[Shift General] Farsquidge:
Not sure if this is relavant (only had the shift a couple of days) but after liberating, I did the SP1 update.

After update the shift would not get thru Windows startup with a NTOSKRNL.EXE error.

Could be down to a 'Bad' update but going to fully update the unit before I Liberate this time.

Bit of a bugger that I did a full machine backup to a USB drive and because this is a HDD restore of Vista, you dont have the availability of using the 'Restore a previous Backup' you have when using a CD install.

It just returns the old 0x810000EE Vista error that no backups have been previosly made on this machine when you try a full restore after HTC recover!! :(
[Shift General] NPG:
Office pack Dont Work !!

Hi All

Thanks for this great fix...now i can use the WM for something..

I Have the same problem on the Danish One of Shift ...WM office doesn't work at all. I can see applications icons at Programs but could not open excel or word..

get the error Box with nothing in and the ok check box.....

Hope that you can help me..

/Peter
[Shift General] Slotrat:
I have a Swedish Shift and I have the EXACT same problem.

I'd also be happy for a solution.

/Peter (also) :D
[Shift General] Farsquidge:
Update on my initial problem...

Did a system restore and made

all

Vista updates inc SP1 BEFORE modding anything and all working like a charm..

Still can't exclude a bad update but good thought for anyone.

Plus from this is DON'T rely on Vista Total Backup, use a third party backup such as Acronis that leaves an operating system attached to the BU file and then you can boot from USB..;)
[Shift General] TheoMobile:
Great job thanks

it works great thanks again.

I assume this is a start and there are coming follow ups or updates.

Is it right the bluetooth is not working yet or is there something wrong here?

[Shift General] cnbabbage:
thanks + ActiveSync trashed my NOTES + memory

Fantastic job, many thanks!!

One ugly problem: ActiveSync trashed my NOTES in copying them from VISTA-side Outlook to WM-side. Some appear as WM-side NOTES alright, but others show up as text files in FileExplorer->MyDocuments, and MyDocuments now also contains heaps of undeleteable bogus folders and files. SNAPVIEW_RESET on the VISTA-side doesn't fix it, and I am afraid to reset on the WM-side as it seems likely that will wipe out the LIBERATION and SHIFTpack installations.

I second all the wishes for SD card or USB stick access ... and/or is there a way to increase the memory (what is it, hard disk space borrowed from the VISTA-side??) available to WM?

When I point on the file in the e-mail from modaco site, I got the message "...The file can not be save because it is potentially unsafe.." I tried to uncheck the box in security settings but without effect.

Missing liberate in settings

It seems I do everything in the video:

- move settings to my docs

- save cab file in my docs

- save liberate.lnk in settings

- move settings back to windows

BUT when I open settings - no Liberate! It doesn't show up.

I have repeated the procedure and the shift tell me the files are in there and do I want to rewrite.

Any thoughts about what is wrong?

[Shift General] safak:
Hi Modaco ;

Can we say that liberating ( or enabling cab installation ) means changing the

string value to " wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete "

at

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CabFile\Shell\Open\Command

Please advise...

Regards

Safak
[Shift General] deprotector:
Soultion is very simple: You get that message when you click on attachement but just keep the pen pressed on the attachement in ordrer to initiate a mouse right click then select Save As. This way you can download any attachement and avoid the restrictions of the security messages.
[Shift General] VeEuzUKY:
I have three quick questions:

- Is the phone function also enabled with this mod?

- Is it any easier by enabling full WM functionality to use theird party GPS software for WM5/WM6 for navigation?

- If needed to do a hard re-set, will all of this be kept or re-set back to its default and all will have to be re-done?

Thanks much! :)

" Liberate " does not appear in settings

Hello, can anyone help please:

I have liberated my shift one month ago. It worked perfect.

Now I have deleted the complete memory and I want to liberate again.

I have done it like I have done it before, but now the " Liberate.INK " does not appear in settings .

I did try it many times ( always deleted the memory before ), but no success.

What have i done wrong?

Maybe, the files are not o.k.? Can anyone send me the original-files ( Liberate.INK and ShiftPack.liberate.Cab ) to t.brumm@gmx.de ?

Thank you for your help.

Problems with Shift Pack

Hi All,

I have tried to install WiMo on my HTC Shift. I used the video from www.modaco.com which is great. Almost everything worked fine but I have one big problem.

[Shift General] B-44:
Funny, to me it's nearly the same- only the .link file is shown in SnapVue.

If i take a look at the same eMail (i use AOL) in Vista, Shiftpack is also there.

Started searching yesterday, hope i'll find some solution.

Or maybe anyone else out there has a good idea.

btw: if anyone needs Shiftfiles, take a look here:

edit: there seems to exist a working solution where you have to do manually the things Shiftpack would do:
