I feel like the proverbial infant trying to take baby steps when still learning to crawl in the “geek” world.
I went to the “ghisler.com" website to download Total Commander.
- Selected ‘Pocket version’ from the left column tree
- Selected ‘Pocket PC’ from the left column tree
- Selected ‘beta cabs’ from the ‘Download the Pocket PC version (Freeware!):’ graph center column (CAB) recommended for Windows Mobile 6.5
- Selected the ‘arm’ version from the ‘Devices with touch screen (Total Commander Pocket+PocketPC Phone):’
- Downloaded the cecmd.arm.cab file using my Intrepid
- After download process I used file explorer to locate the downloaded file in ‘my documents’ as indicated during the download process.
- I selected the downloaded file using the center button (Enter/Settings key in Intrepid manual), answered yes to whether I wanted to install the file/etc
- It appears to go through most of the installation process and then I get the error message: ‘Tcmdpocket252_armbeta2’ is not a valid pocket PC application
I tried the same thing as above but with the ‘arm/xscale/pxa’ download which successfully installs. I can go to Start/CE-Total Commander icon and open the program. But I don’t see anything more than I can see with file explorer in terms of finding and working with things like “HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\NotiCharger” in Haus’ tips/tricks. I checked out the buttons at the bottom of the application to see if they reveal anything more but without success.
I checked to make sure i’m using the correct processor/etc by looking up the details of the phone in the about section:
Samsung SPH-i350
Start/Settings/System/About
Windows Mobile 6.5 professional
CE OS 5.2.21743 (build 21743.5.0.26)
Processor: ARM1136EJSMSM7600
Don't know enough to know what I'm doing wrong. Help?
