[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] far2rare:
Hello,

Forgive me if this has been asked before, I've done a search and haven't come up with an answer.

I'm looking to start making my own sliders and icon sets, can anyone point me in the right direction where I might find out how to do this? (i.e. how to make cab files)

Many thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] a042349:
I'm not a developer or WM skin designer/ROM chef, but I think your question is a little like asking "how do I strike the bottle of Champagne exactly right when I build my first ship and launch it?".

In other words the cab file is the end of the process, the final delivery system for installation by multiple users. I would imagine that a good start would be to have created your sliders and icon sets, understanding of course where the files/icons go on the target system, that they all work properly, tested by friends, which systems are supported is known/documented, etc, etc.

Then you want to put these finished and tested files into a cab file for re-use and/or distribution to others. I'm sure there are some good tutorials (Google is your friend) out there on creating Windows Mobile cab files, when you're at that stage.

Also for general development/app questions a more generic XDA forum like this would be a better place to start.

Always remember that search boxes (Google on the outside, forum search in here) are good things to become proficient at - especially if your goal is learning some new skill.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I use WinCE Cab manager, since it seems to be the best out there. It allows you to package files, registry settings, etc., and has an easy wizard for people who don't know how to use the program. It has a 30 day free trial, and after that, it's $99, but it's worth it if you regularly make and modify CAB files.

Otherwise, if you don't want to buy that, Extendir Cabs is alright for basic CAB file needs. It doesn't do all the comprehensive stuff that Wince Cab manager does, and it isn't as easy to use, but it gets the job done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
Personal favorite for me is QuickCab. Requires zero intellect to figure out how to use it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bugsykoosh:
I second QuickCab. Only rule is that if the cab is registry values only then you need to add a file (even if it's empty) since it's a requirement. If you're just doing registry values then try this: http://www.fuzemobility.com/make-a-customized-cab-for-your-registry-tweaks/

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Free Man:
Hello all, I am looking at picking up a Diamond 2 variant (Probably the NextG one so I can get 850 3G), but wondered if Voice Dialing is support or included with the Diamond2 anywhere?

Also how easy is it to get to and actually do a voice dial of a contact? My Touch Cruise had voice tags assigned to whatever function or contact and that was easy enough, but it also has a hardware key for voice dialing only...The Diamond2 does not have that hardware key and so I wonder how easy it is to actually access the command and utilize it without going in several menus, etc.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Mutchilly:
voice command

Hi,

I used MSVC on 6.1 , installed it on 6.5 , working well no probs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Free Man:
Did it come with VC then? Or did you have to use a cooked ROM to get it, or did you buy it?

How easy is it to us VC once installed...can you assign a button to voice dialing, or is it an icon you can have on your Home screen readily accessible?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] gianton:
I am using only cooked ROMs and can confirm that on most of them (WM6.1 or WM6.5) Cyberon VSD is working perfect. You can either run Cyberon VSD from the left hard key or from the BT headset's button.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Free Man:
What is the "left hard key" exactly?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] gianton:
The send button which you use to answer a phone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Lacerta:
The retail version of Cyberon Voice Commander (not VSD, MSVC-like ) works great on Diamond 2. It supports BT button, and you can set dialing key or volume-up/volume-down keys as hardkey from its Settings.

You can download this version from Cyberon's website.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Tatsch:
If you search this forum for "cyberon voice dialer" you'll find a cab that fits for you.

By the way pocket ie was really multi touch in an older beta rom (1.30) ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kholk:
I'm thinking on this.

The HTC HD2 is the FIRST MultiTouch device with Windows Mobile.. it doesn't sound nothing to you?

We're having a device that is revolutioning the PocketPC experience and for now even the OS doesn't support natively MultiTouch features, as the MT features will be included in Windows Mobile 7...

...so, no one has developed any MT app because the first WM device supporting this is the HD2 and ONLY the HD2!

The apps that are MT capable (Opera.) are developed only because of HTC that had to ship the HD2 and had to PREVIEW to us the MT features that we'll get with the WM7 ROM...

I think we only have to wait.. :P

[G1 Android Development] dizzydix:
Hi Guys,

I just wanna ask if you can mod a rom before the update.zip install to your own preferences.

Example you download HERO Batman ROM with its own dock,bar,bootscreen.

Then you open up the files you wanna change, example dock bar colour make it green then save it and then update the rom so that it will come in as you modded it.

Is that ok to do, or will the install of the update.zip fail if we play with the files from the downloaded rom?

Thanks in advance
[G1 Android Development] kingchris:
you need to resign the zip-file after change
[G1 Android Development] dizzydix:

Thanx bro`

I just think I will leave that alone, since "signing" isnt ringing a bell.

I done some research on the net and I see its a very delicate process.

So, before I mess up my phone I will leave it alone.

Thanx for the feedback!
[G1 Android Development] bjehsus:
it's not that delicate. check out the theme forum. loads of guides on how to resign a zip.
[G1 Android Development] dizzydix:
HI

I swear I have done everything stericson tells in his how to.

Somehow I dont get the option RESIGN if I click on my mouse.

Maybe we dont understand eachother bcuz of my bad english.

Is it also good if I click on the map (with the files meta, framework, app etc.) and then make a new zip update file? Or is that bad shi*?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
i think he means recreate the zip.. so you need to make the files/folders into 1 zip file.
[G1 Android Development] dizzydix:
OK

OK, I just hope I wont F** up my phone.

You can't brick by flashing an ROM. Worst that will happen is that the phone won't boot, in that case go to recovery, wipe and flash a ROM. That's it.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jgarcia:
Hi all,

After spending a couple of hours searching through the forums I still can't figure out the exact steps to upgrade my phone's rom.

As I stated in the title I have an HTC Magik with Rom version 1.5 locked to operator and I want upgrade it to 1.6.

From some thread I could discover that my phone is a 32A.

From here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=565929 I read that I can apply this Rom and after I can patch it to make it run in a 32A phone. But still I don't know the exact steps to do this.

Can anyone, point me some clear threads where I can find information on how to do this or provide me the full information here, please?

Sorry if this is not the right place for this thread or if this was already asked a ton of times. I searched through the forum and also looked to the sticky threads and I couldn't find anything clear for a newbie.

Thanks.

[Touch Cruise General] Free Man:
Anyone else who owns a Touch Cruise have their touch screen just stop functioning altogether? I came back to use my phone which was just sitting in the car and the touch screen no longer works...Obviously this did not happen due to being dropped, though it was a little warm nothing unusual by any standard.

All the hardware keys work, everything else...just the touch screen is dead. Has anyone else had this happen and if so were there any steps to reviving the screen or was replacing it an option, if so what did you do?
[Touch Cruise General] Skinksallad:
I had this problem with mine, it was just to send it to their lovely repair center through the dealership since I still got my Warranty, they exchanged the front panel, witch senses the touching. Depending on where in the world you live you should be able to by a separate one, or get it repaired by them. I hope it solves for you...
[Touch Cruise General] Free Man:
Thanks, I am well out of the 1 year warrant and in the US, which is not even where this phone was originally warranted so there is no chance of that.

I believe the cost of repair outside of warranty, and the time it would take that I would be out of my phone would not be worth it. I am hoping that I could purchase a replacement screen and repair it myself...Anyone have any direction here to do so?

Mem Leak (Not a big problem with huge RAM)

Extra battery (Some in rom tweaks for better bat)

Speed (Latest build gives some extra speed, extra is always better)
[HD2 General] mskip:
Do you know where the memory leak is coming from? Usually Opera and Internet Explorer are the main causes of memory leak on WM devices but without using it I wouldnt know. I always use Advanced Config Tool to tighten things up as much as I can I dont know if that will be of any use but its worth having a look at the options.

I never did like WM6.5 but I guess its something I will have to get to grips with. I use QuickMenu at the moment with my kaiser but that will be absolutely no use with no stylus and no d-pad. Im also going to have to get used to Resco Explorer in the finger friendly mode :eek:
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
What makes you say that? Browsers consume a lot of memory, but that doesn't necessarily constitute a memory leak.

[HD2 General] NeilM:
It probably still won't work correctly. The Navipanel software is only part of the overall package- the other part is the HTC Car Kit which includes a custom battery cover with some extra connection terminals. I believe it is this electrical connection which adds the full functionality to the Navipanel software.
[HD2 General] Aaron McCarthy:
actually the car adapter has magnets imbeded in it and when the phone is placed it in the magnets trigger navipanel. That said... you can still launch it by just using the exe. There was a hack for a vga and qvga navipanel off of the htc cruze. I had this running on my fuze for a long while. It doesnt work on the TP2 which is WVGA.

I believe the only dependancy is footprints. there may be some other tweeks but maybe if someone could even just post their .exe file that might work

The HD2 has magnetic and electrical contact activation for the car kit/navipanel. This is (apparently) what the 3 terminals are for beside the SIM card.
