.NET Framework not cooked into ROM ?

Hi guys,
I installed the tofclock WM6 ROM which should have included the .NET CF2.
But when installing and running NET applications I always get the error message which advises me to install "netcf.core.ppc3.ARM.cab" .. isn't that the NET CF ?
So long
HonkBB

I've been installing and running several programs that depend on .NET CF2 with no problems from the first day the first WM6 Hima ROM came out. Today I suddenly ran into problems with THREE different programs.
Two out of these three are now working after extracting a .netcfsetup.msi , copying the NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab, netcfrtl.dll, netcflaunch.exe to storage card, running the cab and soft reset. If you already installed netcfsetup.msi, these files are on your desktop computer in the program files\microsoft.net folder.
I can't imagine that it has anything to do with the date of today so the only reasonable explanation I have of 4 similar occurrences on 1 day (yours plus my 3) is that there is "something" around that messes up .NET. I doubt if it could be malware. That leaves as other candidates a cab that overwrites any of the .net files or settings, or an uninstall that removes more than it's supposed to do.
It is possible that we're both victim of the same culprit, it's just as possible that there are several potential culprits around.
BTW the file you mention is a .NET v1 cab... Perhaps older programs need it even when v2 is installed?
I'm planning to cook my own ROM soon (my first one, exciting) so I intend to dive into this matter a bit deeper.
Any suggestions from .NET scholars?

.NET CF 3.5 on Diamond: how to do

I't since 3 das I'm testing .NET CF 3.5 on original ROM.
I installed it in this way:
download this and install the .cab into device (not internal storage):
http://rapidshare.com/files/74341832/NETCF_3.5_ppc_ce5.rar (thank you FAMAN)
the go to the registry in
HKLM - Software - Microsoft - .NETCompactFramework
and change as follows:
2.0.7045.00 -> set 0 (was 1)
3.5.7283.00 -> set 1 (was 0)
Soft reset
And now u have .NET CF 3.5 on your original ROM

Thanks, i will give it a try.

i am very curious on how much Speed difference would this make?
1) Will this overall increase the application startup speed?
2) Will this exhaust more memory than net 2.0?
Greatly appreciate it if you can shed some light on this.
thanks.

1) the feel is that of an increase of performace launching and executing programs.
2) the memory after a fresh start is 53.86 Mb (ROM: 1.37.408.3 ITA)

Does this mean it flashes it into ROM?
Did you notice any problems as a result of this upgrade?
Thank you for sharing

What? This means that you normally can not install CF 3.5 to diamond? Why? How is this possible? Isnt it a bug?

This just means that you tell WM 6.1 to use .NET 3.5 by default instead of 2.0
Both are still there.

thanks for yr hard work! I'm gonna give it a try!

Works finde on my O2 XDA Diamond. Thanks!

I used 'netcfcfg.cab' (attached) and did not bother going into registry.
Besides setting default .net version to use it can also define this per application.

erase 2.0?
some mentioned both version are still there after installing 3.5? Can I just delete 2.0? and how do I do it? thanks.

It takes alot of memory , even I installed it on "Internal Storage" , still it takes
abiut 2 Mega from internal memory.
I can't realize why the programers using .Net at all, and if they are using it, so they should use .Net comes with WM6.1 and not lame new .Net...

You can't delete 2.0 Since it's part of the WM...

I found out if you use netcfcfg.cab on your device you can choose what .net you want for each program.

how do you install .net compact framework 3.5 on you HTC?

i ccan't figure this out does anyone can tell me the procedure?
were to download and how to install??

Do a search. on either google or on this forum before asking plz.
This question has been answerd before.
But sins there was no thread that was acualy called like your question ill post the answer and maby next time when someone search they will defenetly find the answer
Go to the link below and download the program and install it on your computer.
When its done it will install it on your phone aswell. (so keep it connectded to the computer while you install it)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Go here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
If you read the instructions, it will tell u.
This package uses ActiveSync 4.0 to update the device. Before running NETCFSetupv35.msi, connect your device to your PC. If your device is not connected, ActiveSync will store the CAB file and will not install the package until you connect. If you are not using ActiveSync, run the CAB files on the device that correspond to the device–specific CAB files found in the install folder.

For now, it's not possible to download directly the cab file from MS site

google for the following files:
- NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
- netcfcfg.cab (saves yourself from editing registry)
You will identify trust-worthy locations easy

Easier than you can imagine.
Search MODACO forum ( www.modaco.com ) NETCFCFG.cab and NETCFv35.vm.armv4i.cab
Install both and you will have a simple application in program menu to choose between net 2.0 and 3.5. DONE
You can also choose to use 2.0 for some applications and 3.5 for other

thnks y´all i found it on modaco, got it worked!!

pls help, I can't install it
it writes: "installation error. stop all applications and processes, maximize available storage space, and run installation again. Support info: 3"
I cant even uninstall it, and I get this msg always

"installation error. stop all applications and processes, maximize available storage space, and run installation again. Support info: 3"
Solution: I kill Kaiser Notification and then I can install .NET Framework without this problem. This app. using .NET Framework.
So I think the solution is in closing/killing all running applications.

What is the "kaiser notification"?
I have the same install error.
Thank you.

i have the same installation error as the last two posters. i tried killing every program i can and i still get the error

me too !......still can not install netcf v3.5 !!

After 2 days searching high & low through internet all discussion session, still can not find a solution. Therefore I made a self tracing and tried all kinds of method, at last I found a solution without doing a hard reset !!
rename mscoree.dll under windows\ to mscoree.dll.txt
re-install netcf v3.5
no more any error code comes up
thats it !!

I am running a tytn II, with the same problem. Install, i get the error. I can't uninstall, atleast not when I try through the 3.5 installer (remove or repair) or the "remove programs" on the kaiser.
I have hard reset the phone 2x,and regardless of whether I am installing from the exe or the cab file on the phone, still get the same error as everyone else.
This past time, i tried changing the name of the mscoree.dll under windows\ to mscoree.dll.txt and mscoree35.dll to mscoree35.dll.txt
same problem. I'm really beyond annoyed. Can someone help?

have a sprint diamond, how do i check which version i have and if its the newest?
it seems like all the programs i try and install say it requires a newer version than the one installed on the device but its only a month old so im not sure.. any help would be great..
thanks!!

I have the same question. I've searched all over and can't find an explanation of what .Net 3.5 is or how to find out if I have it already. I have a Sprint (CDMA) HTC Touch Diamond. Thanks.

I had the same problem on my HTC Kaiser, but I found a solution.
I found a program that acts like safe mode on a computer.
So if you install that program and restart in safe mode (you need to select safe mode when you boot), you will be able to install the compact framework 3.5.
Probable some locked files prevent the normal installation.
The program is an evaluation version, limited to 14 days, but since you only need it for the framework, you don't need to keep if you don't want to.
The app: SafeMode 3

...still not working on my touch diamond.
i've renamed the dll and tried the safe mode app. But I still get the same error.
btw: i have this problem since i installed a cooked rom.

Thanks. Was also having the install issue (I had previously installed and then removed 3.5 but good old ms clearly didn't remove correctly).
Renaming mscoree.dll worked (I tried mscoree2.5.dll before but that didn't work as it was in use so I couldn't rename that).
Glad it worked, was facing dropping back to previous backups or installing a task manager to kill processes (a good task manager program will show all your processes), just to reinstall 3.5.

another thing that goes wrong with the 6.5 wm and tf3d installed:
when you go to the movies, and you put your phone into vibrate, with the left volume keys, the phone goes into vibrate fine,
but when you set it back to full volume, the next time someone calls, it only vibrates, you have to go to: Settings, Sound and change the ringtone manualy to make it ring again...
Sorry, Wrong Forum...

.NET Framework 3.5 not installing on Tilt!

I've been trying to install the .NET framework for my Tilt, and it keeps spitting out "installation unsuccessful". It installs fine on my computer, then it goes to install it to my phone via ActiveSync (Windows Mobile Device Center actually because I use Vista). The installation screen on my Tilt pops up saying it's installing, but the bar doesn't move at all, and after a few seconds it just says it's unsuccessful without giving a reason!
I'm using the stock ATT Tilt rom, 6.1 version. I haven't done anything special to it, so I have no idea why it wouldn't work...
Can anyone spare some sage wisdom as to why this won't install? I'm trying to use wmVista and it needs 3.5 to work .
Note: I downloaded the .NET 3.5 right from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3c6b-42f1-9fd9-0041345b3385&displaylang=en

Have you tried copying the NET CF3.5.cab directly to your Kaiser & then installing. The cab can be found in the installation folder on your PC or on this site if you do a search.
I've always installed from the cab file never from the PC installation so might be worth you trying it !

You might want to get the mobile version of .net 3.5...
http://frifor.com/download/IBI/NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.CAB
Download that to your memory card, then launch it with file explorer on your phone, and it should start to install all on its own. Install it to your device, not the media card, for quicker running .net 3.5, or if you want to save space install it to the media card, but it will run slower...
And FYI, the search function works very well, as well, if you had looked about 5 posts bellow this new one you created you would have seen a thread already dealing with this exact issue.

Ah, I saw that thread before posting but I assumed by his first post that his problem was different than mine. I just check it out again and saw the direct downloads for the cab file, so I'm gonna try that out. Thank you for your help!
(I'm a new poster, but I've been lurking around these boards for a while now looking for stuff for my Tilt)
Hopefully this works...

i installed .NET CF 3.5 on my device then after installing my camera is just plain black and doesnt show any picture.

problem solved!
- i installed Resco Registry Explorer and .NET compact framework 3.5 on my Kaiser
- opened resco registry and searched for the .NET CF
- disabled .NET CF 2.0 by changing value from 1 to 0
- then enable .NET CF 3.5 by changing value from 0 to 1

I had the same problem, used your link, it worked perfectly. THANKS!!!!

.NET compact framework

I recently updated my X1's firmware with the Sony Ericson Update Service. Since then I've been reinstalling everything. Only problem is, that for some reason I can no longer install Microsoft's .NET compact framework, which is required for some programs to run. Is anybody else having this problem, or know what to do about it?

Here:
.NETCF v37.cab

I had the exactly the same problem after installing the RA3 rom update.
It always said that the .net framework cf installation unsuccessful when I tried to install using the .exe file downloaded from microsoft.
Alternatively, you can install the CAB file from your computer.
If you use windows, look in the folder:
program files>microsoft.net>SDK>compactframework>v3.5>windowsCE for the CAB file. I used this one, NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab, and it works. Now I can use a software that needs .net 3.5.
ps: if I'm not mistaken the .net CF 3.7 is a leaked version. Therefore, I prefer installing 3.5 to 3.7.

Thank you, that seems to be working.

.Net CF 4.0 is actually available with the MS Visual Studio 10.0 beta, but beware: the damned program erased all my contacts and calendar when I autosynced (and I had no backup because I hadn't autosynced in months AAARRRG!)

I have some problem to use v3.5, hence now try to get v3.7.
Thanks...
