Same here. I have even tried to rename the old file with .bak and then delete it in Total Commander, but this has no effect. I ended up arranging the files by date modified in Total Commander and deleting the ones I had just put there in order to have the same storage as before.
I am interested in speeding up the system as a whole and reducing the ROM size and so would like to use this system. Without it working with Total Commander, I don't know how else to do it...
Please help
which makes sense the "overwriting" of the rom files doesnt work unless your cooking but some of the compression is amazing
this is an old trick that was/is used for older devices to fit WinMo 6 on them
but a side effect is faster application load times
i figured i'd try it on the Blackstone and difference is noticeable
HTCAlbum loads in about 1 Second, before it took about 4
so i'm sharing this with anyone who is interested
The batch file is kept as simple as possible for everyone's ease of use
but this is pretty advanced tweaking, so all common warnings apply
and/or
if you are not comfortable with getting files from/to your PocketPC
and/or
can't figure out how to extract this zip and read the "read me.txt"
and/or
don't know what “any key”
(read the forum and the wiki a bit more, and you'll gain the knowledge)
Version History:
v 1.0 - initial release
v 1.1 - no icon compression switch added to the batch, for more general compatability
