Hard resetting a friends device is always fun :D But if you don't really feel like it, you can just run the file windows/loadvdisk.exe instead, to gain access to the Extended_ROM folder. At least that's how it works on the Magician...

mayb u should use HBK method.. if there is loadvdisk.exe in the /windows directory of ur friend device.. after that u will c a folder named ext_ROM appear.. choose that folder n find for .cab file that u think that it sounds like camera file... gud luck

Hey,

How abt copying the exe file from windows folder and replace it to the older version exe.. Be sure to take a backup before replacing :)

Cheers..

Just copy the camera.exe from \windows to your desktop with Act.Sync & attach it to the board. No need for a cab, on the magician it's a single executable, proba. on the WM2005 version too. I doubt it will work on a magician under WM2003, but I'll give it a try!!!!

WM2003SE is great news in this. Though I didn't notice major improvements in the camera builds between rom 1.12 & 1.13.

Maybe build 3.......?

yes! i transferd the camera.exe onto my phone and it doesnt work. It ajusts the brightness on the screen and rotates it but thats as far as it gets.

Just getting him to install resco to get the cab file

Ryanmt

further update - he doesnt have loadvdisk on his.

we tried to copy over the dlls that go with the camera but neither resco or over activesync will let him do it... so were stuck!

-edit

weve got
camera.exe
CameraPictureDLL.dll
CameraVideoDLL.dll

he says theres no more camera related files on his, where as mine has camera_sensor.dll and one or two others.

ive coped these files over and it still does the same thing, rotates the screen ajusts the brightness then stops.

Im not gonna upload the files into this thread as i dont want cause confusion with people thinking its a working version (no matter how many times i say it doesnt work people will still asume it does!)
If anybody wants a copy of the files though pm me and ill give you a link

Loadvdisk.exe ia hidden-, system-, rom file. So get your settings correct.

Ryanmt
25-01-2006, 03:36 PM

Try to rename that for example camera.ex_ , then it might be two files copy one of them which could copy or do soft reset & move your renamed camera.ex_ to as

Ryanmt.. b4 that try to look again for the resco explorer settings so that u can view all hidden files in the \windows dir.. after that locate the loadvdisk in the \windows n click it... after that a folder named Extended_ROM will appear.. try this 1st

Ryanmt
25-01-2006, 07:09 PM
ive double checked that, he can see all hidden files... there just doesnt seem one!

You got a Magician too, copy your loadvdisk to your friend's device.

What about to place the files here? I think, camera.exe will be enough. Maybe, it needs a reg-tweak:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera
HKLM\SOFTWARE\IA Style\IPC\Camera HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C3\Icon
BTW, just read Wizard info here:
...1.3 megapixel camera with 2.0 megapixel software interpolation and flash for night shots... heh, must be good camtool!
waiting...

the dll files that i have are totally different file sizes though (28k vs 44k) so i assume its more than just a reg tweak. my mda has more camera related files than him aswell. But ive also noticed that the old camera version works fine with the new dlls!

Ok the camera does start-up (changes the brightness & rotates the screen anti-clockwise this time) & then crashes. Noticed that in my registry there some camera*.dll files which are probably to be changed with the new ones from the rar-file. So pls grab your friend , tie him up & get either the cab-file or copy his registry keys/values belonging to *camera*. & you may release him afterwards, that's up to you.

Cheers, M

I sent him my LoadVdisk.exe he cant get it onto the device it says permission denied. checked it isnt ready and theres plenty of space :(

no way he will understand how to get the registery keys etc
