When I download e-mail in Pocket Outlook, I can see the attachments but I cannot open or save them. I think I'm doing everything as I should: after a "send/receive" the message arrives in my inbox; I hit "mark for download" to get the full version including attachment, and I click send/receive again. But after that, when I click the attachment or tap-&-hold it and click "save as", nothing happens.
Strangely, the attachments do get downloaded to the Windows/Messaging/Attachments folder, where they reside in the form of ".att"-files with long codenames. I can even open them by changing the extension (for instance to ".doc" for word files), but this is a pain as I have to copy them to another folder and try every single file since there's no way of recognizing them by their file names.
I have restored from a Sprite Backup once or twice, and since I understand these mailboxes are pretty complicated structures to recreate, I'm wondering if this could have caused the problem.
I have the following mail boxes in Pocket Outlook:
Text messages and MMS (standard)
ActiveSync, with a LOT of synchronized messages, all without attachments though (to save space)
Two e-mail accounts, one POP3 and one hotmail (with Adriansoft's HTTPmail plugin). This is where I sometimes need to download attachments. These messages usually get deleted pretty quickly, as I store everything in Desktop Outlook and keep my online mailboxes empty. However, I've noticed that even attachments from deleted messages are kept in the Windows/Messaging/Attachments folder.
Operating system is Pocket PC 2003 SE.
Has anyone had this problem before? As I don't have any attachments I need to keep (none in ActiveSync folder, and the POP3 and hotmail accounts are emptied into Desktop Outlook regularly), do you think it's safe to delete all the files in the Windows/Messaging/Attachments folder? Would this perhaps help (by forcing Pocket Outlook into a "clean start" organizing attachments)? Hard resetting and rebuilding from scratch is not an option, I'm afraid, as I use my device intensively and don't have the time to do this.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Hi Robrecht
I have been having the same issue.
Have you mannaged to fix yours yet?
What you can try if you have restored using SpriteSoftware before is using there cleaning software. It will basicly clear and reset all your mail folders, attachment databases..etc..etc.

Please let me know how you go and if you have found a way of fixing your problem if you have already done so... This file did not fix my issue but is has fixed others with attachment issues.

Same Problem here.
Anyone find a solution yet??
Thanks!
Change registry keys that points to attachments location
Got the same problem on my iPAQ 5550.
Don't know which application setup caused the problem, but I found a solution changing some registry keys that points to attachments location.
First of all I suggest to backup your pocket pc data.
Open windows notepad or other text editor
Copy and paste the following lines:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Attachments]
"BottomDir"="Attachments"
"MiddleDir"="Messaging"
"TopDir"="Windows"
"AttsDir"="\\Windows\\Messaging\\Attachments\\"
"Moving"=dword:00000000
Save the file as FixAttach.reg (or choose a different name mantaining the .reg extension).
Copy the file on your pocket pc, and tap on it.
Let me know if it works.

is there a text editor built into the phone somewhere? It would be real nice to be able to read files while in the phone itself , or do you have to be tied to the pc?
You have word in the office hub. You may create new files but syncing with pc is not supported as far as I know. You have to send files from your pc to your phone via email.
Advanced Explorer and TouchXplorer both offer full filesystem access and the ability to open any file for reading/editing in Word (although some files will be write-protected). This generally works fine for plain-text files.
Hello,

Save games will be tricky as they all are located in their own folder.
Documents are stored in \My Documents\
Pdf's are stored here \Applications\Data\BC4F319A-9A9A-DF11-A490-00237DE2DB9E\Data\IsolatedStore\
Copying them "easily" is not an easy task. For the pdf's I suggest you sideload adobe pdf reader app and than use wppowertools to connect to the iso storage of this GUID BC4F319A-9A9A-DF11-A490-00237DE2DB9E, now you will be able to see all pdf files and copy them easily to the pc. Alernatively if you own a samsung you can use WP7 Root Tools or DiagProvXML (which has built in copy pdf to office hub, from which you can email the pdf).
Docs can not be accessed and will need to be transfered trough skydrive or mail.
okay works good thanks
Sent from my Gold using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Hi everyone,
I'm posting a method today which i use to backup my XAP files and favorites. I hope that they will help others too and I'm posting some other tips too which i gathered around from the web and XDA. I will be constantly updating this post.
Most of the tips I've provided here are only for Fully Unlocked Phones
Backup .XAP files downloaded from Zune Marketplace
Access your phone's files using any File manager FileBrowser by ego zheng, Unique File Manager by Mohsen Unique Or TouchXplorer by julien Schapman.
Both FileBrowser and Unique file manager can open XAP files but TouchXplorer will throw an exception.
Open FileBrowser and Goto /My documents/Zune/PimentoCache/Lib/
There should be numerically named folders containing cached XAP files but with .ZMZ extension which will look like this
app0b792c7c-14dc-df11-a844.zmz Copy those files to another folder and rename the extension ZMZ to XAP. You should keep in mind that PimentoCache folder gets cleared after every few days. So you have to copy those files as soon as you've downloaded from the marketplace.
You MUST have XAPdeployer by Ultrashot installed for the following trick to work.
If you want to open ZMZ files in the FileBrowser to see which ones you are copying or renaming. Launch Registry Editor by Julien Schapman open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT create a new key .ZMZ open .ZMZ and create a new String value "Default" enter "xapdeployerfile" in the value and tap OK. Now you can open ZMZ files in the file browser.
Backup XAP files downloaded with Bazaar App
Using Phone's file manager Or Windows Explorer on computer Goto
Application\Data\9daf0fc-a0ee-4cfc-905a-cc812d678a35\Data\IsolatedStorage
all homebrew XAPs downloaded from Bazaar will be in this folder.
Backup XAP files downloaded with wPhoManager
If you download files with wPhoManager from W.I.N.C.O marketplace all the XAPs downloaded will be in
Applications\Data\8A011F29-D5A3-4942-B865-71198AAB94AE\Data\IsolatedStorage
Screen Goes Blank during Incoming/Outgoing calls
I had this problem sometime ago when my HD7 fell real hard and started giving these problems. So I searched the web and found this solution from some website. If you are having problems (Blank screen and inaccessible phone) while incoming/outgoing calls it has to do with the proximity sensor. It goes out of alignment and that results in the black screen during the call. While the call is active, since the screen is essentially turned off by the proximity sensor, I can’t use the keypad or even hang up the call!
The fix is to press down hard on the area where the proximity sensor is. It’s located at the top of the screen – pretty much where the HTC logo is. Just press hard on that area and that should move the sensor back into place.
Backup Internet explorer's Favorites
Browse to /Windows/Favourites and copy all the content to a folder of your choice. Put them back in after you've reset your phone or installed a new firmware. You can also use IE fav Backup by Sh4d0w86 that's also a pretty good app for doing this task.
Saved Office mobile files OR copy Documents from computer to phone
All your Word, Excel, Powerpoint files you saved on your phone are stored in My documents. If you have files in your computer and you want them on your phone. Just copy all those to My documents and they will be in your files list.
Record incoming/outgoing calls complete with environmental effects
This trick does not even need any sort of unlock. Call any number on speaker and press the camera button Switch to Video Recording mode and tap Record. Your call will be recorded in a video use VirtualDub(or any other audio extraction software) to extract the audio and Audacity to reduce environmental effects if there are any.
ZIP files
By default downloaded ZIP file's content (Which can open by default in Windows Phone 7)is in Applications/Volatile/ZipView/(This folder gets deleted when you close the ZIP file, So you have to keep the ZIP file open until you've copied). but the limitation is that you have to open each file individually. But if you want to download the complete file without any content limitation. Do the following method :-
»Open your file manager on your phone OR windows explorer on PC.
»Goto \Windows\Profiles\Guest\Temporary Internet Files\
»There should be folders with names like 9FADAF33, Q110E4PZ, U0GWIYEF and U2QKY63D(exact names can differ)
»Your downloaded ZIP file will be in one of these four folders.
»Copy/Paste downloaded ZIP file to another location where you keep your files.
This method is helpful if you are downloading ZIP files which contains DLLs, EXE or any other format files which WP7 cannot open.
Download WinRar, CAB, 7Z files
Windows phone 7 does not recognize these file types so it will not download these files if you want to. With the following tip you can download these files to your phone.
»Start your phone's Registry Editor and tap HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
»Create three new keys .Rar, .cab, .7z
»Open each key and create String "Default" with "Zipfile" as a value
»Now you can download Winrar, 7Zip, and CAB files in Internet Explorer.
If any of the above tips helps u out a little please hit thanx or reply if you have any question or suggestion.
I will add shortly:
xap handler = new registry key HKCR/.zmz and string value: Default -xapfile
unique file manager extract zipfile
Download WinRar, CAB, 7Z files
Windows phone 7 does not recognize these file types so it will not download these files if you want to. With the following tip you can download these files to your phone.
»Start your phone's Registry Editor and tap HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

Thanks for the valuable info.
Great job
It did and did not work
The rar file can be downloaded, but wp7 cannot read it or recognize it, it shows corrupted file or unreadable file by the system.
It seems we need rar code to be native so we will be to open rar files.

The reason why i posted that registry key wasn't to open RAR files but to download them on your phone so you can copy that file to your computer. Because sometimes the content you wanna download is in RAR format.

I really need 2 task:
Open PDF file within the browser.

i hope too but WP7 is closed like a fort, it's not developer friendly and it's really hard and time consuming to do modifications or add new features. You can put some minor things here and there but nothing too big.
Hello!
I copied and moved some .zmz file in my pc.
I renamed them in .xap and tried to deploy them into my HTC 7 Pro with Dynamics 1.21 ROM.
I tried with WPH Xap Deployer, wf Phone Tools and Phone7Deployer, but I only got errors (failed to open the manifest file. This may not be a valid xap).
I suppose this should be related to app encription...
So now, also without Reinstaller working, if we make whatever can delete the apps from the phone, we will have to pass through the marketplace, with app list opened on Zune on our pc... :crying:
Otherwise, a way could be:
1) to know an app's guid, i.e. with cache clearer
2) use a storage explorer on pc, like windows phone device manager and go to
application/Install/(application guid);
3) copy that folder into pc
4) right click on the folder to create a zip file
5) change the extension of the zip file to xap (you can do it at the end, there
some softwares for file renaming...)
A long way if you have some tenth apps installed...

You are right about apps encryption. Microsoft recently encrypted all their XAPs on marketplace.

Nonetheless, if we've got encrypted XAPs specific to our devices, we ought to be able to install them on the device somehow from within the device. We'd just need to initiate the install routine. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks
What I am interested in, is a way to take my games save states and back them up. I'm sick of restarting Angery Birds every time I flash my phone. lol Rest of this is super interesting stuff though.

Did you try to look into the Angry Birds folders in your device if it saves something,
for example using FileBrowser (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544399) or Webserver from GoodDayToDie?
If there's something there, you should be able to copy your states in your pc and put them back in your device, I think...

You can use Program Manager by ego Zheng to backup your angry birds settings. You just have to put your saved settings in your angry birds folder after you've flashed.
Here's the link to program manager

Trying to export my health data(motion/gps) from my IOS phone to Strava
1) For some reason my data has/is not syncing with the cloud(it stopped 6 months ago) I've re-enabled the cloud sync option in the app, but it still wont sync. Requesting data from Huawei and then converting the data and importing into Strava worked fine, using the to converter the Hitrack to TCX then importing was easy. I have linked my Strava account to Huawei Health app but unfortunatly this only syncs NEW workouts not the old data.
1) I have access to the IOS app and files, it's the wear.db (SQL lite database) that has all the right up to date data but stored in a database (mine is 1.3GB) , is there a way for this to be converted to the .json file(this is what you get when you request your data from Huawei).
2) Is there a way to convert the health data .db file to something that can be used in Strava? Either a batch converter or for individual activities.So essentially the SQL db to motion path detail data.json file that can then be used with the https://github.com/aricooperdavis/Huawei-TCX-Converter
3) I did find, https://github.com/tommyblue/huawei-health-to-gpx conveter that can convert .db files (individual hitrack files to gpx) but for the life of me can't figure out how to install(golang files?)
Has anyone figure out a good solution yet, or can help with the above?
ok so I figured this out!!
1) Browse your Health data on your phone using filza and or Apps manager, it's under your document data, not the app data so may take a while to locate, should be under the documents folder. If using filza you can enable WebDAV and then simply login via a browser then download the file onto your desktop
2) Locate the wear_133.db file, or the largest most recent file, mine was 1.3GB
3) Transfer to your PC.
4) Open with a SQL Browser, I used https://sqlitebrowser.org/
5) Go to file export data table to JSON, select the wear_xxxMotionPathDetail Table
6) You should have a file call MotionPathDetail.json file(can take a while to save)
7) Go to https://github.com/CTHRU/Hitrava and download the latest build
8) Edit the following line to match your filename.
python Hitrava.py --json "motion path detail data.json" --from_date 2019-10-03 --output_dir my_output_dir/json
change the date to date earlier than your first activity.
9) Open a CMD prompt to the folder where Hitrava is, paste the JSON file you have from step 6
10) Run, and wait, you should now have an output folder in the same directory with ALL of your latest walks/runs etc.. in .tcx format
11) Open Strava/other apps and then add activity, import the .tvx files
If your lazy use https://tapiriik.com/ and sync your Strava account to a dropbox with all your .tcx files in a folder.
Tested and working!
