Does PHM Registry Editor work with WinMobile 6?

Hi all,
I've tried many times to load PHM Registry Editor on my Kaiser with Windows Mobile 6 without success.
Does PHM Registry Editor work with Windows Mobile 6? If not, is there another one that may work?
Thanks,
Phil

Works for me
My installation worked.

mine too.. it is actually one of the few that did work, and pretty good.

It does work, give us some more details and let's see if we can help.
How far do you get?
Is it a Cab or Exe?
Do you get any error messages?
etc
Alternative - perhaps Total Commander using the //plugins directory.

Details
Hi,
Okay, that's good news to me, it will work, and it's just me
Here's the details; When I goto http://www.phm.lu/downloads/download.aspx?{940B734A-C437-41C7-ADED-2A4418802FD3}
to download, I've downloaded the ActiveSync (twice) and the CD Redistribution links and tried installing from within the phone and off my laptop via USB and each time I gotten an error on the phone saying the file is not recognizable. What am I doing wrong here?
Cheers,
Phil

Ok. From this site:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
Choose this one from the list:
Pocketpc 2002 2003 arm/pxa
Move the unopened cab file to device with AS explorer function.
Tap it to install. (I have mine installed to SD card)
Mike

I have a really good reg editor here if you need it.
(Got it from.... a tool pack)
Since the upload doesn't allow this type of file... i had to zip it
anyway put it on the device of your htc phone and run it from there.
Note: its not an install, its an actual application
Another good reg editor is resco, and total commander.
(total commander's registry is in the root //)

Hi,
Wow, thanks. That worked without a hitch and I opened it up successfully on the phone. Thank you Mike, great help and right to the point. What did I miss? How would I have known that the 'PocketPC 2002.2003 (ARM/PXA)' was the file I needed for a HTC TyTNN II with Windows Mobile 6?
No to look at some of those useful edits, after a complete registry back up of course.
Cheers,
Phil

Just for general info on downloading file types:
Many sites offer a choice of different application file types to download I always go for the CAB file rather than the EXE file. The CAB file you install by putting it on the SD Card and tapping it. The advantage is that if you ever need to re-install you do not need your PC, just tap on the CAB again to install it.
For this and most devices nowadays you should choose:
ARM files
POCKETPC or PPC files (not smartphone)
WM5 or WM6 may also be stated. Most WM5 apps will work on WM6 and many WM 2003 apps will also work.
Nearly always if it's an EXE download then this is meant to be opened on the PC with the device connected by AS or Device Centre. Very occassionally you will come across an EXE that has to be put on the device and then run. (these rare files usually have a statement telling you to do this).

Thanks Mike, great info and very useful.
Cheers,
Phil

installation of *.cab was unsuccessful

Hi all,
I am facing a weired problem,
I have installed an application, it was installed very well, with no problems at all.
But when i flashed it with a new ROM, i have tried to installed that application again, i keep getting:
Installation of 1 ACERT_ARB.CAB was unsuccessful
shortly the whole package doesn't get installed at all.
I went through the program files, deleted any old stuff, tried to reinstall, but the same problem
i have put the old ROM back, but still no luck
am i missing something here? any advises please?
regards

i get that issue every now and again. I usually have to either use a different file explorer or do a soft reset and try again.

Thanks for sharing
i have found the solution finally
the current ROM doesn't support the CAB file i was installing,
i needed to do the following:
remove the SD card
reinstall the compatible ROM which support the CAB file
i hoop it it heps other they may had the same issue

reinstalled rom...
still problem continue
has a other solution?

I recently had this problem when trying to install a couple of CAB files. It appears that something was running that the CAB was trying to update. So, for example, I was trying to install "Inbox Extender" and POutlook (and/or tmail?) was running. Once I killed that, I could install the CAB.

CAB won't install suggestion
I saw this with several cabs that I ran using Resco Explorer and I had Kaiser Tweaks set to not delete the cab after install. The solution was to deselect that setting in Kaiser Tweak, ket a fresh (never run) copy of the cab file and run it using the generic file explorer. It has worked every time since then.

Acert_Arb.cab is no more working

Its a known issue and it doesn't matter what radio you are using. There is a fix, but it takes longer and is more of a hassle. First I don't know if you have signed up at MyTomTom.com yet or not, but you have to because the version that does work is not English speaking voices, so you will have to download an English voice. Go to the link in my signature under Programs, its called "Working TomTom", download it and install it to the device. If you need help getting the voices set up just let me know and I will walk you through it.

TYKDKobes finally got that installed. hopefully its better then the other navigation softwares I've tried so far.

Thanks will try this, finally got Nav 5 installed, but would like version 6 for newer maps. Sorry to be a bit thick, but do you mean to install the file I downloaded onto my device and the try to install Nav 6?

That CAB is TomTom Navigator 6. So just install it from your device.

Got it working, downloaded voices, Thanks heaps for you help!

In my signature is a link for all the free TomTom voices instead of trying to find them all. Just download the Zip file and extract it to your computer. You will need to REPLACE your current "voices" folder with this one. For instance my TomTom is installed on my Device, under Programs, Navigation, and in that folder you will see another folder called "voices" that is where TomTom stores its voices. All you are doing is taking the one you downloaded and replacing it with the old one. **this will replace any current downloaded voices**
"the zip file is located under cabs"

will install and test the application.
thanks

Hi, can you help me, I'm trying to install Tomtom 6 to my HTC cruise. I keep getting the message to update my ROM, I tried to follow the advice in this thread, but have failed. Can you walk me through it? Cheers

what is the speed of tomtom like on your device mate? mine is painful, screen refreshes every 1.5 seconds, whereas i get 15fps on another sat nav program (which actually holds reception better than tomtom too!)
TomTom support were helpful, told me to hard reset and try again. I think its a software issue with 6.032.
The other sat nav programs arem much more graphic intensive too, so i doubt its the graphics drivers.

Which version of TomTom did you download and install. Usually that error appears when you download the TomTomWWE(World Wide English). The one you need to download and install if you get that error is the Working TomTom CAB which can be found in my signature under CABS, Programs. Should work then.

how do I install the program from you're cab to my HTC cruise? I'm a bit of a novice at this, sorry.

Download the cab file to your computer, and copy it to your Device or Storage Card. Remember where you place the cab file because you will need to open it from you Phone using File Explorer. Now navigate to the file and click on it. It will automatically start to install, usually it will ask you to install to the Device or Storage Card, but this CAB will just install to the Device.

when I do this I get a message 'there is no application associated with..' run the application first, I can't get the tomtom application off my CD? sorry for being such a pain. Thanks for you're help.

Check your GPS speed in TomTom.
Go > Change Preferences > Show GPS Status > Configure > Oter NMEA GPS receiver > GPS baud rate > COM4
The GPS baud rate should be between 4800 and 9600, if its too fast mine exhibits the jerkiness as described in your post.

Kinda confused now. What do you mean you cant get the application off your cd? If you have downloaded the cab then you dont need the CD. After moving the cab to your phone go open it, by using your phones file explorer program(single click or double click) should automatically install itself. have you made it to that point?
This is also a great resource to TomTom 6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235

I downloaded the cab files from you're signature and then had a list of files which weren't associated with any program (they had the generic icon next to them) I then put all these files on my micro SD and put in my phone. I then went to these files on my phone using file explorer and there was still a list of generic icons. Maybe I did something wrong in the download. I downloaded with winRAR and extracted all the files to a folder on my desktop. I really appreciate you helping me, thank you.

No these files dont get extracted before moving to your phone. When downloaded the file should be a blue file folder icon called a .CAB. Once downloaded take that exact file and move it to your phone. Here is the link to the cab http://www.4shared.com/file/47123724/832a2d34/Working_TomTom.html

How to install Garmin if it wont install itself?

I got the latest garmin XT from the garmin site for my Tilt, and ran the installer on my pc. usually, when i put the memory card into the device, it automatically pops up with a window and asks me if i want to install it and where.
not this time though. and now i cant figure out how to actually install it. every file that i pick from the garmin files on the memory card doesnt actually install it properly. it doesnt show up in the programs screen, nore does it even come up in the manage programs screen. it works, but i have to use file explorer to actually launch the exe. its not really installed!
im using the L26 V8 lite rom.
please help!

I had the same problem on my tilt, I am using death v4 for my rom. I thought that I accidently downloaded the nokia verson or something cause nothing looked normal after it "installed". I don't know what to do either

working on dutty
Just info really...i'm on dutty's June release and Garmin installs and functions fine. You might want to consider this plus the latest SPL with being ROM being very smooth.

i have the latest hardspl. dutty's latest releases are too buggy.
just tried it with L26 V7, same.
No one knows how to properly manually install??

Did it create a folder on your storage card called 2257? If so, is there an autorun file in there?

Yeah the 2257 folder is there, tried to run the autorun file, still didnt actually install it

Take your storage card out, then put it back in. Does autorun start?

[Q] how to backup apps?

i'm planning to flash a winmo 6.5 rom on my xperia. but i have spb mobile shell (registered!) installed and i really don't want to lose it. so how can i save it so i could install it on custom rom later?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
according to the spb home page you have received an email with the registration key
so it should be simple and just depend on whether you dl it as *.exe or as *.cab
in case of *.exe it's on the PC and you should be able to rerun it and authenticate yourself using the mentioned registration key
similar with *.cab, secure the file on your sd card (keep a backup on PC as well if you like) before flashing a new rom and reinstall/register after installing sbp mobile shell
that's just an educated guess as I don't use the product, so in case you are unsure and nobody else answers I would advice on contacting their support team and/or doing some more detailed research yourself (e.g. start here)
Best, DK

at first i downloaded a trial version (i think it was a .cab file), and then registered it. but now i can't find that file on my sd card.
edit: no, i installed it using my pc (so with .exe file). i think that's the reason i can't find it
edit 2: found the answer. didn't notice what you wrote about .exe file. thanks
