Okay!!! In an attempt to make the setup process easier I came up with the below. I have tested and this works just as well.

1. Save the attached SASHIMI Link.cab to \Storage Card\SASHIMI\Program\2577.
2. Save the attached SDConfig.txt to the root of \Storage Card.

That's it!!!

SASHIMI Link.cab will create the required SASHIMI.lnk to the \Temp folder.
SDConfig.txt is configured to install the SASHIMI Link.cab and then execute the newly created shortcut.

Note to twe90kid: I may have misunderstood but in a previous post of your it sounded like you mentioned renaming the AutoRun.mscr file located in \Storage Card\SASHIMI\Program\2577. If this is the case, make sure you name it back to AutoRun.mscr. The SASHIMI.lnk that is created in \Temp points to this .mscr file. If the name is not correct then AutoRun.mscr will not execute.

Please report back and let us know if this works out!!!

But everytime i flash and I have followed the instructions my weather now is the only thing that won't save.

Its really no that hard, just create the shortcut of autorun.mscr and call it sashimi.lnk in the same directory the file its self resides and copy the sdconfig.txt to your storage card. That's it. Done, hard reset see if it works. Just setting up Sashimi its self is way more complicated.

use the cab follow quote above

S2U2:
The below registry key will allow you to restore your complete settings.

HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\S2U2

Once your settings have been set and saved, export the above RegKey to the appropriate Reg fold in SASHIMI.

BeeJive:
The below file will allow you to backup the setting for all accounts that have been created.

\Program files\JiveTalk\JiveTalk.sdf

Once all accounts have been created, save the above file to the appropriate Root folder in SASHIMI. Be sure to create the same folder structure within the Root folder (Program Files\JiveTalk) and save the backup file within the JiveTalk folder. This will ensure the file is restored to the appropriate directory.

If I see that it hasn't been documented here I'll post more as I come across them... It'll be nice to have some of the more popular apps listed in the first post...

thanks i will add to post 1 soon

i only got this error when i tired to use this setup with The TITAN it wokrs perfect on Herman.

make sure you have sashimi 8.0 use the cab and sdconfig.txt (use the newer sdconfig as it is updated to call the cab not the shortcut.)

I have 8.0 and I used the posted cab and .txt file and I hard reset twice and the same thing happens. It installs the cab fine but when it runs the shortcut it doesn't work

Based on the error you provided, it sounds like it cannot find the program responsible for initiating .mscr file which is MortScript. If your ROM does not have MortScript preinstall before SASHIMI initiates then it will provide the error you are reporting.

The below should work regarless of whether MortScript is pre-installed or not:
1. Save the attached SASHIMI Link.cab to \Storage Card\SASHIMI\Program\2577.

2. Save the attached SDConfig.txt to the root of \Storage Card.

And that's it...

Just an FYI... The above will now create a shortcut to and execute the AutoRun.exe instead of the .mscr... Let's hope this clears up the issue...

Please report back...

The UC-SASHIMI setup should not affect any previous configurations you may have had in place with SASHIMI. All we are doing in auto initiating SASHIMI as opposed to manually initiating it after a flash has been completed.

All I can recommend is to back up your weather settings again and hope that fixes the issue... I can tell you that for me everything restores after a hard reset with the exception of my ActiveSync Exchange connection which just requires me to Sync and comply with the exchange policies by setting up a simple password and my People tab. Everything else is just the way I like it...

Good luck!!!

Thanks I figured out one of the problems was that I was pasting a shortcut of the SASHIMI.lnk(SASHIMI.lnk.lnk)in \Temp and it wouldn't initiate the autorun. Second my rom isn't mortscript enabled so I needed to copy the autorun.exe. Not sure if it matters or not but I didn't have the uc part of Sashimi enabled. I noticed when I did that it would rewrite my root sdconfig file in the root directory of my storage card.
But your new cab and sd file works so thanks again.=D>

No, you do not need to have UC Enabled within SASHIMI. I believe this feature is there to use SASHIMI to copy down the SDConfig file from sashimi and initiate it to execute the commands. This is why you see it overwriting the file which you already have at the root of SD.

We are doing the opposite. We are using SDConfig to initiate SASHIMI for automation. It could be done both ways but I believe this method is easier and provides a smoother and quicker restore.

Great... Glad to see it worked out... Let's see if this helps others who were experiencing issues...

You can use sashimi to create an xml to set up activesync exchange server also....I do and that syncs my contacts, appts, and emails
