Restart. Did you see the hidden partitin? YES? OK.
Copy cab files, that you want autoinstall to the hidden partition.
Hard Reset.
Copied cabs must appires in autoinstall window.

Kropotov, я тоже пробывал скидывать кабы в Hidden Partition, но они не появляются в автоинсталле после ХР. Я полагаю, дело заключается в файле autoinst.bin, в который неюбходимо прописать скопированные кабы. Вопрос в том - как это сделать....? Есть идеи?

Спасибо тебе, родной! Я все нашел что нужно! Я тут изобрел кое что :) Переименовываешь файл Hidden Partition.cab в Ringtone.CAB, а на саму Hidden Partition ставишь самораспаковывающийся SPBBackap файл и все дела :) При ХР автоматически устанавливается твой HP.Cab а там дальше распаковывается все из бекапа за 3 минуты. Проблем никаких и главное что париться настраивать ничего не надо, к примеру закладки не SPB Pocket Plus!

Спасибо еще раз! Ты мне действительно помог!

of course! 1234 find the solution of autoinstall, but the different way... so the summary of his post:

1. Rename file Hidden Partition.cab => Ringtone.CAB
2. Using SpbBackup, create self-extracting archive.
3. Put self-extracting archive in the Hidden Partition

After hard reset, in runs automaticly, and you have all programs installed. All nformation and programs settings is safe (for example tabs on SPB Pocket Plus)![/QUOTE]

i opened hidden partition. I tried to put some cab files and then there is no enough space message appear.. When i check the memory status Hidden partion is Full(15.58 mb). how can i increase this partiton.
or how can i put cab files into the partition.

I suggest you to reflash the rom. It will help you get back the auto install funiction. right? it is the best solution.

put cab in the hidden partition

Simply adding CAB file into hidden partition does not work, the application will show in O2 autoinstaller automatically. Need some hack in other place.

I'm using Atom Life... and I don't see the hidden partition. I'm using Resco Explorer.

Gee... why did you do that? The files are the one that is used by the application that comes with your handphone.

Well, just go to O2 Repair centre and ask them to reflash you handphone.

Ok, now I'm wondering whether removing the cab provided will do any harm to my Atom Life as removing it removes the TRUEFFS_DOC2 (which I didn't check whether it exists or not before I installed the cab).

Confirmed that the TRUEFFS_DOC2 does not exists even after a hard reset. So, deleting it will cause no harm.

Ok, there is a difference for Atom Life and other Atom line.

Looking at the cab provided, I found out that it modified the TRUEFFS_DOC2 which does nothing for Atom Life.

Modification should be for TRUEFFS_DOC1. I just open the registry editor and go to HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC1\F ATFS and change the MountHidden value to 0.

Ok, now I'm wondering whether removing the cab provided will do any harm to my Atom Life as removing it removes the TRUEFFS_DOC2 (which I didn't check whether it exists or not before I installed the cab).

thanx programatix.
i did it & can open hidden partition, also can add or remove things to it, but the thing is they are not appeared in auto installer so have to do somthing. have any idea?

i know one trick, that is:: add anything u need to hidden partition but have to delete something from there which is not neccesory & rename the new one to it, now u can install that item from auto installer but as same name.

As I haven't found a working version of it yet I haven't posted it yet.
Will need to look into the roms I guess and try to extract the files, but will try to do that when I got time later in this season.

Kropotov, would you be so kind as to explain to a ignorant person on this, how exactly to do what you said?
Are you saying to rename the 'ringtone.cab' into something else?
Or are you saying to rename 'hidden partition.cab' into 'ringtone.cab'?
And, with spbbackup, create a self-extracting file of which file? 'ringtone.cab'?

Please help a newbie.
