Good morning, The text completion on my TYTN 2 is not working at all. I've done a hard reset, I have the appropriate boxes ticked, but no joy. Any ideas please??
Delete the file compimeh in windoes directory and then softreset.
Sebastian - can you please explain what the file compimeh is? I have "compime" and "compimeh.0409" in my Windows folder - I am not sure which needs removing....
My text completion in the Pocket Outlook "To" filed does not work, but I thought that was to do with HTC Touchpad - will deleting the file you mention solve this problem?
Thanks (and apologies if this didn't relate to ribcage's original problem).
the copimeh.0409 is the dictonary of the phone. so it wouldt not help you. in that file are the words for suggestion saved in. but you can try it out. the fille will automaticaly recreated after softreset

The file named compimeh is not present in my windows directory or anywhere in my device. I looked manually and did a search. Would finding that file and placing it the windows directory solve the problem?

Yes. I think this will solve the problem.

I've tried searching but with no luck.
what is the reg setting to prevent cab file from being deleted after running it?
Thanks!
this came from searching google:
"We use *.cab files as installation files for our Windows CE versions. Sometimes users ring to ask how to stop the CAB files deleting themselves after running them. Users having been copying the cab files to the CE desktop before running them to ensure that the original remains after installing.
This is not necessary - If you change the properties of the cab file (right-click on the file and select properties) to READ-ONLY (tickbox) then the cab file won't delete itself after installation.
CAB files "self destruct" after being executed unless you make them read-only. We send all our cab files to our web server as read-only, but this attribute tends to get removed at the download stage"

I used a registry tweak to disable the default AT&T dialer and now I want to change out the images. I am having a problem copying clg_in.gif, clg_miss.gif, clg_out, and spd_lst.gif into the \windows directory. I keep getting an access denied error message. I have turned off the phone and did a soft reset, but that didn't make any difference.
I have attempted to replace the files using my desktop computer and File Explorer.
Does anyone have a solution so I can copy over the four new files?
Thank you.
resco explorer allows you to force the copy.
Thank you.

I will give it a try. Thank you.
Update...
I downloaded Resco File Explorer and installed it. I copied the four images to \windows and after confirming the files copied. I can see the correct images in \windows. I did a soft reset but the old images are still showing. I verified that the new images are in \windows. Why are the old images (AT&T crap) still showing?
Thank you.
Bumping = Bad
Sorry to bump my own thread, but I'm fairly confident that someone knows how to correct this problem.

its probably a cache issue, such as if u put a picture on a contact, then delete the picture, the picture is still on the contact.
but, i dont know how to do what you are asking.
You can just flash the rom im sure there are more customizable friendly roms out there.
Hello,
I have applied the KaiserTweak and changed the settings to hide SIM contacts, but they keep on showing after a reset. How do you ensure that they are hidden completely.
I am concerned about the problem because I just received my Bluetooth Headset (HBH-DS980), and it can't retrieve contacts information from my device.
I would appreciate any assistance,
sincerely, MN
try this
Andics,
thanks very much. I saw this cab earlier. When i download it onto my mobile device, i'm unable to run the *.cab file -- it still opens as an *.xml file when I double-click on it.
I've attached a screen shot of the contents of the zipped file...
what can i do next?

You probably have pocketRAR or something that handles cab as a compress file and it's telling the system to extract the CAB file !!!
I installed the cab file fine ... run it ... don't extract it !!
I downloaded a program called Flashlight, and I wanted to know how I could get it onto my all programs list, since it came as an .exe rather than a cab. Thanks in advance!

Either move the file to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs or Create a shortcut to the exe (Copy the file in File Explorer and Choose Paste Shortcut) there.

Ah! That did the trick. Thank you very much
doesn't work with GpsCompass
I installed a program called GpaCompass that doesn't show up in my win/startmenu/programs, so I copied and pasted the .exe there, I tried to cut/paste the .exe there, still no go. it gives me an alarm about microsoft.net, but i have 3.5 installed. I've tried using 2.0 as default AND 3.5 as default. not sure what to do. I'll try to include screenshot of error msg.

Don't copy (or cut!) and paste the exe to your Startmenu/Programs folder. Instead you should copy and paste a SHORTCUT to the exe in your Starmenu/Programs folder. By pasting the exe file itself into your folder it is trying to execute from that folder when other files that it may need are in the installation directory somewhere else on your device.
So first, cut and paste the .exe back to where it was originally located. Next copy the exe and "Paste as shortcut" into your Startmenu/Programs folder
Thanks lots
@ Rumbal,
worked beautifully, thanks a lot! I apparently misunderstood other posts I had read about doing this. And , call me an idiot, but somehow completely overlooked "paste as shortcut", and only saw "paste".
Thanks
woot!
Thanks!
This is something I just learned as well. Now I'm going to go ahead and make all the shortcuts I want!
It took a while, but I didn't want to ASK and get flamed for it. Anyway, these forms are tens of thousands of posts deep....I knew the answer was here

Amazing trick...this worked without troubles, and it can be set manually mostly for portable applications which does not install in Program Files folder.
I just did a trick with portable Dreamweaver by simply copying the portable folder to the Program Files, and then copied and pasted Dreamweaver.exe shortcut in Star Menu\Programs folder....worked fine.
Thanx for ur tips...
Some software I install is done with an .exe file from the PC. It seems like these programs simply dump the CAB onto the phone for install. Does anyone know where this CAB is on the phone so I can copy it for re-install later?

Check the location you installed on your PC, the cab is usually there too
I have a quick question. I dowloaded Xtract that game. And I extracted the zip and i dont see a .cab file anywhere. Only a setup.xml and a few other files.
Sometimes it goes into a temp folder, it depends on the software. If I see it mention a location during the install process I check that folder for the cab file.

Ohh nevermind. So with CABviaActiveSync I just click it and it will install to my phone?
Sometimes you can open up the .exe file with 7-zip and just extract the cab file. Or, if you have sk tools, you can re-pack the program into a cab with their 'installed programs' tool.

Hi Doug!
You can find the .cab file(s) in C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\XXXX
Where XXXX is the name of the software you have installed.
HTH
Thanks for the replies. This should speed-up some installs for me.
