Hi all,

Last week I flashed my S200 with the 2.20.7.34 WWE ROM. After the flash I got this error quite often:
The file ':MSxxxxx' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.
xxxxx stands for the file that is 'corrupted'. This file differs depending on which Windows app I use (WMP, IE, Excel, etc.). After the error the backlight of the screen turns off and the screen doesn't respond if you tap on it. The only thing that works is removing the battery and power up again. I flashed my device to the 2.20.7.32 NLD (dutch) ROM with the same error. Both ROMs had the 02.61.21 radio ROM installed. Is there a sollution for this?

Thanks,

On my WM5 Phone I get around this problem using the following "SignCode" program from buzzdev: (free registration required)

Extract the SignCode files into a folder. Then you have to run it from the command line or the "Run" option from the "Start" button. Since this program actually changes the executable file by changing the embedded security certificate, you might want to make a backup copy of the EXE file first.

Here's the syntax:

<path to SignCode files>sign.bat <path to program and filename>

If you extracted the signcode files to your "C:\Program Files\SignCode" folder and are trying to fix your "C:\Program Files\SomeGame\SomeGame.exe" file, here's EXACTLY (quotes and all) what you would type in the "Start" "Run" box or a command prompt:

"C:\Program Files\SignCode\Sign.bat" "C:\Program Files\SomeGame\SomeGame.exe"

You should notice the timestamp of the file change indicating that the embedded security certificate was changed. Copy the updated file and overwrite the original EXE file on your mobile device and then try running it. This will still pop up an "Untrusted Source" type of security message on your mobile device but you will have the option to install it anyway and it will work fine after that.
