Hi everyone.

I just installed the new rom off of the i-mate ftp, installed it and have run across a major issue. When I try to install some of my basic programs like Agile Messenger or even Total Commander I get a message back saying: "The installation of <filename>.CAB was not successful." Nothing more then that. To get around this I tried installing the default_signed_disablesecurity.cab, but that will not install either. I'm stumped. Anyone here know what the problem is? Oh, i am installing these programs straight from .cab files, not through activesync.

I had a similar problem on previous upgrades when installing to SD card, when the same program was already present. Had to resolve by deleting from the card first.

Could be related.

Nope, just trying to install straight to the device. Don't have an SD card in anyway. I originally tried to install these files from my ext rom, then just from copying the cabs to 'my documents' and running them from there.
The only file I have in my ext rom that I added in that will install is the extrom_unlocker.cab.

try a hard reset (reset + fn1 + fn2) and reset before it start installing the extended rom customization. See if it solves the problem

Are you using SPB Pocket plus software??
If so, un-install it and then install the applications wich you need to install first and then install SPB Pocket Plus at the end.

Just conncet your device to the computer, and re-flash the rom to the device, don't mind if the computer does not recognize the device, just reflash.... I hope it will work.

You're not understanding me. There's nothing to "uninstall." I can't install anything so far. I have everything in .cab format so i could theoretically dump it into my extrom for automatic install. It seems like there's a new security/registry entry that's killing my ability to install unsigned cab files.

Sorry for the missunderstanding, I would suggest for you to reflash the ROM again to your device as the installed ROM might be corrupted.
I would suggest also that after reflashing the rom again to your device you should un-install the anti-virus program if you don't need it.
