I dont know what is PKG.exe, but I can tell you its safe to remove it from statrup.

Found this strange file also in the startup folder of the HTC Touch Cruise. Might be safe to delete, but I don't think they put it in there just for fun
Anyone any idea?

google has all of 3 links about this, surely a chef will know?

So what is now the pkg.exe? I can't find anything with google, sorry...
thanks for the answer,

Google has way more than 3 links but none really answer the question. I am not a programmer but it appears that it is a generic executable to launch a package (pkg) of plugins\programs. "Pkg.exe" is used in several different applications and that is why I refer to it as "generic". It looks like it does similar function in different installs. Not much help, I know, but I tried.

I deleted PKG.lnk from the Startup folder on my Touch HD and then soft reset it. It doesn't seem to change anything as far as I can tell.

Wondering the same thing myself.
Found this in an old hyperdragon ROM thread:
pkg.lnk:
shortcut to pkg.exe. Psst don't tell anyone, it will run any application named "pkgautorun.exe" located in \Storage Card\2577 then the system will automatically delete pkg.lnk. Safe to delete.

Ok. that was a bit kryptic. No help at all really. lol.

I have it as well - you all dont have tomtom installed do you? I do remember Tomtom install executed files in \Storage Card\2577 but only the 1st time when installed

Is ther Cabs installation tutorial????

I've searched and I've asked and no one wants to help...Could someone please point me in the direction that I need to be in
Purpose
Sliding sounds
Games
and other applications..
Thanks

LOL
Are you really asking how to install a CAB file????? No wonder no one wants to help you..............
First transfer the CAB file to your phone/storage card(remember where you put the file, you will need to know to locate it on the phone).
Go to Start, Programs, and File Explorer.....Navigate to the folder you put the CAB file into and OPEN it, once opened it will automatically start installing.
I am assuming based on your question that its probably gonna ask you if you really want to install because it might not be a trusted certificate just click YES
Now its going to ask you where to install to.....option 1 the DEVICE.........option 2...........Storage Card(if you don't have a storage card then obviously there will be no options and it will just install)
Last, If you can't perform any of the above steps PLEASE don't even try OR attempt anything on this forum. Thread should be closed.

lol..kobe u went in too much detail trying to explain that..
man you have some patience..nice
i would have just said run the cab file from your phone..lol

Smoka PM me i'll make a video and send it to you so you can see how it's done.

No offense, but I'm a Noob on this forum and I know how to install a cab. BTW, I'm a girl.

Redundant thread alert ***
Why would you start another thread asking the same question when you got more than an answer in your original thread....

Send me your phone and I'll install it for you....

Lol chapman. Play nice. I was trying to help the super noob.

Maybe a Port or serialusbfn.dll problem
Hi, look at the hints of Jo_III in http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=341221&page=4
and follow exactly, if you get an error of a missing driver
or if you do not get any reaktion at all :
Try to think of accidentily using the Port to sync twice.
I had the same prob, when I tryed to use port 8 for external GPS.
PHM device manager helped me to use an unused port.

muckelmaus, your link isn't working. I tried to find that post using the seach option but did not succeed. The part of the URL that belongs on the three dots is required to be able to click it.
Thank you.

Sorry
Sorry, the link was to long to copy. Look at Post #28 and #31 at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341221
One way to install the .dll is to rename it to serialusbfnew.dll,
copy it to \windows and rename it back to serialusbfn.dll
If you try to copy without this trick, you might get an error, that it is impossible, because it´s a system file.
Maybe Totol Commander does the job at ones, normally it doesn´t care but I didn´t try it.
Thnx Maggy, I didn´t know, that there is a lenght limit for links.

Help for a beginner?

Hi everyone, before I start please don't laugh as I require some real basic help?
I have never owned a pocket PC before and for some reason I thought it would be a good idea which it was but I find the diamond a little slow, so I went on Here to see what you pros make of it, and I was amazed to find people had tweaked it with the advanced config, now this is where it gets silly...
I need help really like step by step what to do to install this, if someone could help I would really appriciate it, thanks again, I know you guys are to advanced for this stuff but would really appriciate the help, cheers again!

Are you asking how to install a .cab? simply copy it to your phone and run it from there. These things, and probably all other questions you might have is covered in many threads. Seraching for stuff is a good way to learn, and helps keeping the forum tidy, but beware and use the "search" and not just "search this thread". Welcome to the forum and may it enlighten you in the same ways it did for me

Download the file, advanced config...connect phone to pc and make sure its synched. Take the advanced config file and copy it over to your phones internal memory. Disconnect your phone...open up file explorer and navigate to where you have copied the file....click on the file ie advanced config and it will install onto your phone...install in the device memory when it asks. Once its done installing, your ready to go. Just go to programs and open up advanced config and make the changes you want.
Remember to soft reset the device after every change you make...or else it wont take effect.

here you go!
good luck!

That could be a pretty nice site if it were more wiki-styled.

thanks guys, you guys are stars, I think this phone is a bit to advanced for me !

I have tried instlling the Advanced Config, but it doesn't show up on my Diamond. This is what I did:
Downloaded the .cab file, transferred it to the Diamond in the device root.
Disconnected, clicked the .cab file. It seems to install, I even get the confirmation message that it was installed on the device. And then it's gone, can't find the program anywhere.....
Where did I go wrong????

Maybe its inside Start > Settings..
Check it there..
Regards,
Carty..

Thanks, but it is nowhere to be found. Nothing in Start > settings, nothing in Start > programs. Am I supposed to install both .cab and .zip files? I've now tried installing it on both my wife's and my own Diamond, with the same (missing) result on both devices. And I just can't figure out what the h*** I'm doing wrong! I've tried downloading with both IE7 and Firefox 3.0....
My ROM version is: 1.37.409.3 NOR

it usually shouldnt happen that way. was there any message stating that the uninstall was unsuccessful? perhaps u can soft-reset your phone and recheck your software list to see if its listed there
if u wanna uninstall it, and the file is still not there, try to locate the file in ur phone memory by browsing through the system folder. deleting the file there should be as good as removing the program. however it is a very unconventional method of doing it. anybody else has any thoughts?

well what u can do is try remove everything. the icon and everything. and try to install another keyboard. a htc keyboard or touch keyboard perhaps? or u could try to locate a .cab for finger keyboard on the forums and install it if you dont wanna remove anything from ur program files.
