Trying to put games on..

I downloaded a couple of games i want to put on my phone to test.
but im unsure how to put them on. can someone help me out..?
thanks.
and also if anyone knows any good sites i could download games aswell, that your sure that will work.

Connect your device to your PC via activesync.
If they're .exe files, run them on your PC and follow the process (i recommend installing them on your storage card)
IF they are .cab files or if Windows tells you they're not valid win32 apps then copy them over to your device. U can use activesync to this, right click the activesync icon in the taskbar and click on explore.
Once the files are on your device, browse to where you put them using file explorer and tap the files to install...
This is pretty basic stuff so keep it in mind when installing any other app/game.

active sync

To be honest I'm not quite sure what you are asking but I think it is that your windows folder is not showing on your pc when exploring thru AS. Have you tried to explore via my computer/mobile device? Is it the same when you do?

After you click on the Explore button and the window opens, click on: My Windows Mobile Based Device.
It should be the first item listed at the top of the explorer window.
Then you will see all the root level folders ... including \windows.

On your PC, double check your Folder Options in the Windows Control Panel. Make sure "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" is unchecked.

Actually that "hide protected operating system files" only applies to the PC.
It makes no difference when you are talking about your connected Windows Mobile device.
That option is checked on my PC, and I can see and browse the Windows Mobile \windows directory just fine.
When you first click on the Explore button it launches you into the My Documents folder on the WM device. To move to the root you need to click on My Windows Mobile-Based Device.

Me either can`t see windows folder, I tried both ways, with unchecked hide protecting operating blah-blah, through AS and My Computer, and I can`t see the Windows folder on my Kaiser.

how to install applications?

hi guys, im new here and got my diamond just yesterday.. its my first pocket pc, and i need real help..
looked around the forums and found a lot of good stuff..
downloaded a couple of applications like advanced configuration tools, gsen, registery editor, but i dont know how to install them. when i unzip the files on my pc the are in xml format and when i double click on the setup file it opens in notepad..
plz help me, what should i do? how do i install these applications?

Instead of unzipping the .cab files on your pc, you need to copy them to your diamond (using activesync or select 'disk drive' when you plug it in).
Then open file explorer on your diamond, navigate to where you copied the .cab file, and run it - .cab is an installer file for windows mobile applications

Do the following, hehe
When you download most programs they will be in .CAB format. Now all this means is that they can be installed DIRECT from the phone.
What I do is create a folder on my Diamond in Internal Storage called APPS and make sure my Diamond is synced to my pc / laptop using Activesync on XP or Windows Mobile Device centre if on Vista and then copy all the .CABS that i have downloaded into the APPS folder on my phone.
Once im ready to install the applications its very simple.
On your Diamond click on START and then PROGRAMS and locate FILE EXPLORER.
When FILE EXPLORER has loaded up in the top left of the window you will notice a memory card icon with the current directory you mobile is pointing to, push this and you will then see MY DEVICE and the location you are currently at.
If you have used a pc before its very similar to how the pc windows explorer used to navigate, anyway, select MY DEVICE and then choose INTERNAL STORAGE and then APPS.
Then its just a matter of selecting which application you wish to install as all the .CABS will be displayed. Select the one you want to install and follow the installation process.
If there are any small programs 1mb or less then I tend to install these onto my phone storage memory and for games I install them onto INTERNAL STORAGE but its up to you. Some programs require a SOFT RESET to work.
The SOFT RESET button is located where the STYLUS is stored on the phone, pull the STYLUS out and then you will see a RED BUTTON inside.
Push this and your phone will restart.
There is more information here at good ol xda-developers.com and also http://modmydiamond.info
Hope this helps!

Copy files to micro-SD via GUI - QtADB

Since I can't see this app mentioned already anywhere in this subforum I thought this might help someone out. I found an app which is a GUI front-end for ADB and allows you to copy files anywhere including /mnt/sdcard2 (the micro-SD card).
It works on Windows, Linux and MacOS and has a bunch of other features in addition to this. You need ADB working first to be able to use it.
http://qtadb.wordpress.com/features/

If it works as good as it looks it should be pretty handy. Been wanting to copy things to SD2 without pulling the card..

I just use Estrong exploer and use the LAN option. Search for your pc on the wifi lan, then drop any files you want to transfer into your shared folder (windows) and you can copy and then paste them on to SD2card from estrong explorer.

I feel kinda dumb.. I use the same Estrong file explorer over the lan and have just never even thought about SDcard2. Funny, I move stuff all the time between the tablet and PC. Sheesh! Maybe I am getting old!

QtADB has WLAN option too
since today new version is available
more details You can find on our website

Using 0.7.6 and it connects fine, but it wont list any files on the tablet. Am i missing something obvious? Debugging mode is on, 'adb devices' detects it.

It works with tablets so if file list is empty i think You dont have busybox. Read faq and about on our website

I have busybox and I followed the FAQ but still no files list. I'm sure i am just missing something simple.. I have emailed you a debug.log.
Edit: Sorted it out with help from 7ymekk. Awesome app

Write permissions SD card tru USB

Hello people,
When I open Windows Explorer and I naviagte to my Huawei P9, I see my files, but I can't copy of save files,
my phone is not rooted and I have usb debugging enabled.
Is it possible to edit and save files on my SD tru my USB connection?
Regards,
Ralph

Hey,
Unfortunately Android changed right managements with version 5 I think. Now you must be rooted to grant certain apps write permissions for SD card. However, the original file explorer that came with the phone (the one by Huawei) should be able to copy files. Also, you can copy them from your computer via USB on your phone. When the phone is connected to your computer slide down the task bar and click on files...there you go!

Yes I found the file explorer, but I'm not shure if this helps me.
The reason I'm asking this question is this:
I use watchmaker, and watchmaker has a folder on my SD card , and one of thos folders has a script folder with lua scripts.
I want to open a text editor like sublime text on my windows pc and open the script folder on my phone SD card and edit those scripts and save it.
so is there a way I can tell android, it's ok that everyone has access to this script folder so I can edit those files tru my pc/usb?
