I have just bought a HTC Diamond. I am new to the world of Windows Mobile.
So far the phone is great! I love it.
I have noticed you can download lots of apps and tweaks.
I want just wondering how to instal these programs on the phone.
I have downloaded a few games, Unzipped and copied over the files to the phone. It recognioses one of the games with a '.cab' format and it installed, but the rest are .xml.
Any pointers, tips and hints for this phone?
Cheers
the program you use to extract compressed files identifies cab files as compressed. All you need to do is copy the cab files to your phone and run the file from there. If you try to extract a cab file, you'll get those xml files you talked about.
1. Copy cab to phone
2. Run cab from phone to install the program
good luck

Hi - my first post!
You mention .cab files... I expect this applies to .exe's as well (for example, hot fixes)???
Any particular folder(s) on the phone we should be copying these files to before running them? I tried to install a hot fix today, but after running the .exe and receiving a 'success' message, the phone restarts OK, but the fix does not appear to have worked.
all exe install's for pocketpc's are pc exe files which have to be run
on the pc and then it use activesync to transfer the cab file to the
pocketpc and run it there

Thanks for the response.
Unfortunately, running the exe on my PC (Win Vista) doesn't seem to work.
Error: "{C:\filepath\filename.exe} is not a valid Win32 application."
Any ideas? I'm a complete newb at this so have exhausted my very limited list of possible ideas...
some people don't distribute their apps with installers so it could
just be the program itself
in which case you have to execute it on the pocketpc
this of cause mean that it will not put a shortcut to the exe
in your programs thats just something you have
to do manualy with a program like total commander
which you can also use to browse to where you put the
exe file and execute it to start the program

OK thanks - I already tried running the exe straight from my Diamond, and although it appeared to work correctly, the hotfix didn't actually fix what it claimed to. Not to worry, I'm still learning all this stuff (only had my Diamond for a day and a half now... ).
is there a way to install games on wp7 hd2 not via market cause i have a download transfer data slow on 3g
or can i connect to the internet on wp7 hd2 via laptop to get the speed of my adsl
Probably yes, Not sure though.
Set your phone to Airplane mode and connect it to Zune on your PC.
You can download either off zune or the phone .

Hi all !
For all devices unlocked with ChevronWP7 Unlocker , we’re can easy install custom ringtones or applications .XAP format via Application Deployment , but everytimes need open start menu –> Application Deployment then browser .xap to tool for install take too much times and almost make some in us crazy
That why i decided to write Tom XAP installer , basicly Tom XAP installer and Application Deployment are the same ( Alow install custom .xap to device and emulator windows phone 7 ) But Tom XAP installer a lot convenience , it’s alow you install .xap with double click to file or simple just right click –> install xap
How to :
Download exe and put it somewhere in PC, run it , it will automatic add registry path of application and add menu , icon to .XAP files.
go to this link for download

So it's not made for WP7 man, you have to make sure it's mentioned before download.
all applications related to wp7 is .xap, and not .cab!!!!
but if you are sure that this is a game for wp7 and it's not a .cab file
try the following:
change the extension of the file to .xap,or if it's a several files so open a .xap file of what ever.
open it with winrar, and empty the xap file from its' continent and add your files of the game in it. rename the new xap file with the game name!!!!

Ok so all who have WP7 on their HD2's and having PC with Windows XP have this problem : "wtf man, how do i deploy/install .xap's on my HD2 ?"
Well i have the answer, we all have met the problem with the SDK Developer Tools installation (it was shtting about "ya need vista or 7 bla bla bla")
So after a really hard search (spended 1 minute) i found the answer !
I found this at http://www.redfrogfish.com/483/how-to-install-windows-phone-7-developer-tools-on-windows-xp/
All credits go to that guy!!!!
Ok, so if ur afraid to go to that site i will now copypaste the tut
Download the Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW from Microsoft Download Center
Extract the downloaded package by running vm_web.exe /x
Go to the folder of the extracted package & open the file baseline.dat in any text editor
Look for the ‘gencomp7788’ section and change this two entries from 1 to 0:
InstallOnLHS=0
InstallOnWinXP=0
Save the file baseline.dat
Run setup.exe /web
i extracted the .exe with WinRaR and then opened the baseline.dat with Notepad
Finally, made a shortcut to "setup" file and the "Prpoerties" on shortcut and in the end u add that " /web" thing. Run the shortcut and it should all work and dl the stuff.
Again, i won't visit this post so it's better to find a solution by urself
coul some body explain better this please?
I had problems installing SDK and running Tom XAP installer until now. Basically, I had the WPSDK installed, .NET 4.0, Tom Xap Installer and it worked just fine on my XP Pro.

Thank you for the attached archives!
It worked fine on XP pro!
Hi, guys
Does anyone knows where I can find a specification about the file format of .xap file, there are some guys saying that the xap file is a zip, but sounds it is not true, according to the xap files I downloaded from Windows App Store, the magic word of the xap at the beginning is "PRE"...
Any comment will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
XAP Files are Zip-Files. Your Problem is that when they are submitted to the Marketplace they are encrypted to avoid piracy. If you rename a regular XAP file created by Visual Studio to .ZIP you can open it and browse it. If you donwload it from the Marketplace you can't do anything with it.
Hi guys, is it possible to decompile an app installed from Windows Phone Store?
I'm using a Huawei W1-U00 rooted, running WP 8.1 and i'm able to access the file system and see the data from a .XAP app that I installed (with WP SDK), but i can't access the data from an app installed from Windows Store.
Thanks.
.xap files is just zip files, but it's encrypted - you need a extractor, it will not work in normal .zip extractor eg. 7-Zip or WinRAR. It contains .exe and .dll files. Extract it, and you can use ILSpy or similiar tool for .NET applications or disassembler for C/C++ applications to decompile .dll and .exe files.
