Broken executables? - HTC Excalibur

Hi, I installed NRG's 1.7 rom remade by Ricky and stylez a week ago....I guess an application I've installed since then messed something up. Excel, PowerPoint and Word Mobile won't launch from the start menu...they just open up file explorer. The same thing happens if I use celecmd to launch them. The other shortcuts in the Office Mobile menu(OneNote Mobile and Adobe Reader LE) work fine though. Sorry this isn't dev related, but does anyone know how to fix this?

Open up Chome Config show the Office panel and click on them there
It's because there is no blank document if you put a blank document on an navigated to it would be the same.

Weird, first time using Windows Mobile and I assumed these apps would work differently. Thanks!

How to create/edit a Word & Excel document.

Ok I want to know if I can create or modify a word or Excel document in my excalibur?
uhm no you can't. its only for editing.
why are you confused?
yes you can someone on modaco forum post a plugin to do that...
yes u can (as long as you wm6).. here is the link to download the program that allows you to do so:
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=252990
you have to register on that website before you can download (its free)
omar
of course you can use blank docs from your pc or use the modaco app.
the op was asking if mobile office allowed you to create docs though when obviously it does not.
we don't even know if he has mobile office or wm6 so this could all be moot.

So, the more complete answer is:
1) If you are still running WM5, then:
a) You can buy Docs2Go, which will allow you to create and edit Word/Excel docs, or...
b) You can "port" the WM6 Office Mobile apps (Word, Excel) to WM5, then...
2) If you have the WM6 Office Mobile apps running (either on WM6 or WM5), then:
a) You can use the MoDaCo app DoNew which creates new Word/Excel docs, which you can then edit with the WM6 Office apps, or...
b) You can simply create a blank Word and Excel doc on your PC and then keep them around on your Dash, and copy each time you want a new doc, or edit and use SaveAs.
well thanks for all the repost.
I'm running Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone GSM w/Outlook 2002

When you click on the new doc, it will ask you where to save your new doc. and Word Mobile will start.In Word Mobile, you need to click on menu and choose edit, which will allows you to type in your next text.
Gah! so many steps!!! lol
thanks! i thought edit would be the copy paste settings.
when i hold the end button, some icons show up.
what are they?
thanks

Office Mobile not Work

Hi,
Having a problem with my Excalibur T-Mobile Dash. When I run office mobile word excel or powerpoint happens nothing...only folders come. I tried to install office mobile 5 and also 6 got in this forum but the error comes like "can't open...... " etc etc. I upgraded and downgraded between Windows MObile 6 and 5. But no result. I can't use either word or excel or prpnt.
Please help
If memory serves, Office Mobile v6 only allows you to OPEN Word, Excel, or PPT files and, in my experience, not all of them successfully opened. Office Mobile 6.1 lets you CREATE new Word, Excel or PPT files as well as open them (and, once again, that open thing is spotty).
Office Mobile 6.1 came with my Kavana wm6.1 ROM.
DF
yea to create docs you actually have to import a blank one from your pc and then on the phone modify and save that....

my way to solve the no reflow in adobe LE v2.5

I do not want to flash the whole ROM , so I used another way to fix the ADR LITE.
I extracted the exe. file of adobe reader LE from my diamond (2.09M instead of 2.01M of HD )
Tried two ways:
1. replacement of the original ROM's exe file. This worked but it ended up with failure in direct opening of the PDF files.
A grey screen will appear after the start of adobe reader lite. Then you will need to select your target file again by browsing.
2. copy the exe file into another folder, then renamed it as another name e.g. ADRLv25.exe.
If you start this ADRLv25.exe, then you can use reflow.
If you kick the PDF file directly, the original ROM ver will be started without a grey screen. But this ver has no grey screen.
Interesting - thanks, I'd like to check it out.
So what exactly do I have to do with the exe file you provided?
Do I run it in my HD and install it or does it act as a stand-alone app?
If something goes wrong, can I get the original one back?

You just need to copy and paste it can run it alone.
Try not to replace the original one on your rom.
Replacement will end up with failure in direct launching of PDF files. The program still works but you will need to open the file by browsing in the adobe reader lite manually.

Thank you both for your input!! I ended up installing the cab from "Prof. Yaffle" in the post above to have the uninstall option if needed.
It worked like a charm! Now I can open pdf files just like before (directly out of a folder) and then under Tools--View I can select "reflow".
This is a MUST HAVE for a Pocket PC!! I can't believe they took that out of the version of AdobeReader that is shipped with the HD.
I'm so glad I found this thread. Thanks for posting it guys!
I notice now that when I use fullscreen mode, I cannot get out of it. I used to double-tap (or tap and hold - I can't remember which) and I could exit fullscreen mode. Now, I have to press the HTC Home button to get out of Adobe Reader and then in the task manager I have to close Adobe Reader, then restart it.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Simplest solution without installing anything:

BTW: double-tapping is working fine to exit fullscreen....
Even better. Excellent find.
Thanks.

AWESOME - even better. Thank you for the link!
I uninstalled the cab I had installed earlier.
Did a soft reset.
Then I did the simple registry change (current_user/software/adobe/adobereaderle.25/ EnableReflow 0 to 1)
And now it all works perfectly. I have reflow and I can double tap to get out of full screen mode.
You know, it would be nice if double-tapping brought you both in and out of fullscreen mode. I wonder if that be done somehow.
But in any case - I'm so glad I got this sorted out.
EDIT: This tip should be added to HD Tweak (I already sent the developer a PM about it). I also added it to the wiki list of HD tips.
I have another question.
How come in landscape mode, when I use my finger to scroll, it scrolls like crazy regardless of how soft I flick? It's really hard to stop it and I end up losing my place in the text.
FYI - This happens whether in reflow mode or not.
EDIT: The only way to get it to work is to gently flick and immediately tap the screen once. I guess I can live with that.
Given the exceptional amount of RAM on a Blackstone, why not just go with Acrobat Reader 2.0? That way you get the automatic bookmarking. There's one wierd problem with AR2 - it can only read a single folder deep, I believe, so if you file your PDFs in multiple folders you have to move them around in order for the reader to see them. LE doesn't seem to have this problem. But honestly for me, it's far more annoying having to find my place again every time I open an old one.

reflow on touch cruise 2009
I have just replaced a touch cruise 2007 with a touch cruise 2009, and I have a problem with Adobe Reader LE 2.5. I used the Diamond version on the older phone, but 2.5 is pre-loaded on the new one. The new version does not have reflow and the installation of my cab produced an error message. I have tried the registry edit, but the registry key does not show a value for EnableReflow. I put it in and there is no effect after soft reset. Is the Touch Cruise 2009 ROM version different from the Touch HD?
Adobe Reader 2.0PPC (as available from the Adobe website) does not support WVGA devices - so it's next to useless on an HD. Adobe Reader 2.5LE for WinMo is a totally different branch, and each hardware manufacturer tailors it for their specific device (screen res, d-pad, etc.) so a version bundled with the ROM on one device is unlikely to play ball on others. 2.5LE is not available (legally) as a generic installer, it's supplied by Adobe to the OEMs under an ironclad license deal, ensuring the OEM only bundles a pre-configured image in the ROM. It's intentional, to stop people porting it without permission.
Foxit Reader works fine on the HD, but personally I don't like their menus - especially the lack of a "page X of X" text field like 2.5LE has at the bottom.
Adobe Reader LE 2.5 versus Adobe Reader PPC 2.0
I had wrestled with the problem in 2007 when I got my original Touch Cruise. I found a CAB for a LE 2.5 for the HTC Diamond, which worked pretty much flawlessly, including reflow. I replaced the Touch Cruise 2007 with a 2009 because the hardware buttons wore out, and I do want the buttons and the five-way wheel for one-handed reading.
Now the ROM version of LE 2.5 on the Touch Cruise 2009 appears not to have the reflow option at all. I have installed Adobe Reader PPC 2.0 and it reads and reflows tagged pdf files just fine as long as one opens the pdf file from within the application. If I open a pdf file from the File Explorer, Adobe Reader opens and exits immediately. Worse, Adobe Reader PPC 2.0 does not open pdf files in mail attachments correctly. It reports that the file is damaged, and tries to repair it. The repair fails and the attachment is unreadable. Interestingly, if I take the attachment back to the PC by ActiveSync, and open it with Adobe Acrobat, it looks fine, but Acrobat reports that it is now untagged...
Last problem is that, in the process, the file associations for pdf files has been switched to Adobe Reader PPC 2.0. Is there a freeware utility to set file associations?
file associations
I have solved the file association issue with Total Commander.
Still remaining is the problem with Adobe Reader LE on the htc Touch Cruise 2009. The ROM version clearly lacks the reflow. I have succeeded in installing another version of LE 2.5, both as a cab, and directly by copying the executable into another directory, and in both cases, I can set the file associations so that the new version, with reflow, is opened when I select a pdf file, either from a directory or from an e-mail. However, the program opens with a gray screen and stops. If I go to Menu --> Open, it does find the pdf files and opens them properly. Similarly, if I open LE 2.5 directly, it finds and opens pdf files normally. I assume the gray screen means the file open is aborted somehow, and it must have something to do with the simultaneous presence of the ROM version. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this? There is a workaround for the pdf attachments: I just tap and hold the attachment and save the file. It then opens normally in LE 2.5 with reflow.
registry change
Hi everyone
Sorry to ask what may seem a basic question but I am not very familiar with my device yet.
I have recently purchased a TOSHIBA TG01 and I am willing to use the reflow on adobe le 2.5.
Having read all the above, may I ask the following:
What is called registry, and can one make a step by step description of the registry change process that enables adobe reflow?... I mean after having switched the phone on, what do I do to change that registry ?
Does this registry change enable the bookmarking in adobe reader le 2.5 ?
Many thanks
cheers

Titanium plugins (CLauncher & CComm) for WM6.5 Standard

I am porting some Titanium plugins for WM6.5 Standard.
Currently, I have ported the CLauncher & CComm, both of which were originally developed by "chriscsh" and quite good.
You can find out more information about these plugins on their corresponding threads:
* Titanium CLauncher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514490
* Titanium CComm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513747
The plugins require Mortscript, which is also included below.
I have only tested and verified the plugins using the PD Titanium panels on the EnergyROM. However, I believe they should work on the 3vo ROM as well. These plugins use the ATPluginInstaller, which provides a robust installation and limits compatibility issue with other panels.
Here are some screenshots:
(CLauncher showing two applications, Facebook & Tiny Twitter)
(CComm showing the two pages, Setup & Phone connection)
(Steps for adding an application to the CLauncher panel, in this case, Opera Mini)
is there anywhere we can add another panel? one for apps another for games if possible?
Well.... not exactly. The CLauncher is a single panel.
The idea here is to be able to access and launch applications that are used very frequently (maximum of 9). It really does not matter if they are games, utilities, online applications, native applications.
The feature that you ask for would need to be implemented in a different plugin.
thats what im saying like an a cab that will let us another panel like clauncher
This two are working great, the only one i miss is the contact panel,
i dont have much experience with this type of mods, and im getting an atplugin error, so if anyone could help i would really appreciate.
can someone help me set this up no idea how
yeah working fine in portrait mode too!!! (some fix to the cpr but nothing impmossible!!)
really good job!
now we need a way to add more than one launcher... it could be great and usefull!!

O.k once you install the .cabs I had to go to Chome Config. and "show" both panels. You can the go back to you home screen and setup the CComm panel. As for as the CLauncher panel goes manual input works best; expecialy if your apps are located on your storage card, i.e \Storage Card\Program Files\Facebook\facebook.exe. Then you name it, and choose a icon. Ihave Chome Config. Icon-pak installed and I get mine form there. Hope this helps. I would love to have Chome Config work fully on WM6.5 though.
Ok, I am scratching my head just a little here. I have this set up and it is working well. I am able to launch a couple of programs. Of course I set those app's up using the "Choose from list" method. Now....here is the problem. I am trying to add the Opera Mini app using the manual method referred to in your 3th picture, but my Branded T-Mobile Dash does not seem to have a forward slash "\", only a backward slash "/". Am I blind, or just being a n00b? I have looked the keyboard over and over again, and honestly, I don't think it has it. Help please.

Ah. I see said the blind man. Heck, I didn't even know that was what that button is for. Guess it would have helped if I read my owners manual, lol. I was so used to texting on my previous phone, Motorola RAZR. Like I said before, I am new to the smartphone/full keyboard thing.
Thanx man. I would have taken forever figuring that out.

To get the "\" you must press the camera/sym key that is to the right of the space bar. There you can find backslash.

What I did is export the registry entries for my custom panels, so when I reflash just import those entries and I'm ready to go, just export the following entries
HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\""Your panel name"
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\""Your panel name"
The export is on My documents so after you export copy it to your SD card
Hope this help and save some time next time

Manilla.exe restarts *only* when I access the calender tab?

I got a Dutch stock Rhodium, done a fair bit of tweaking and installing themes etc but since today I noticed whenever I access the calender tab Manilla restarts... Rest of the tabs are fine and when I run the calender from the programs launcher runs fine.
I have fiddled quite a bit last night with some theme cabs and games so I can't tell what exactly caused this... of course I can hard reset but it would take so long to get everything the way I have it now...
I don't use my calender that intensive so not really a big issue for me but it just bugs me why this only happens on the calender tab... anyone got an idea what caused it and how to fix besides a hard reset?
I'm not sure if i can help. but i can try, but i think almost anyone who is willing to help you needs to know what you installed because something you installed is probably creating a conflict or something like that.
