Why is it that whenever i try to install a skin i want, that is in a .CAB file, no matter what skin (or atleast all the ones i've tried haven't worked, about 5) give me an error message saying: "installation failed. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have adequate system permissions." what the hell do i do now? I want to install a skin. It's the SPV C500, and i think it's also happened on an application i tried to install.

Someone please help me.

Cheers

hi

have you application unlocked your phone? because it sounds like your trying to install a homescreen that has the extra screens skinned and that needs an unlocked phone

click on the OTA link for the quick and easy way to do it

yes. I thinks unlocked. Seeing as the other applications i've installed have worked, like smart explorer and things like that. I bought it off ebay, and it was completely unlocked, so i've got it on virgin mobile. I'm pretty sure it is software unlocked, but just whenever i try to install those, they dont work. Also, when i tried that mycabbage thing or something, menuboost and speedbost, they also gave the same message whn i tried to install them. What's going on? It's weird

:?

OK, now i'm really confused. I just went to the orange OTA site, and did the unlock, and despite being on another network, and not orange, it worked. and now the skins work.

Why is it then, that other applications worked before i did this?????

My man, nobody looks stupid for asking a question! Stupid questions are easily dealt with, stupid mistakes take longer to deal with! ^_^

Life is a learning curve...the longer do something the less steep the curve, I'm sure even the mods are still learning (correct me if I'm wrong Oh Demi-Gods! :wink: ) We mere mortals have to ask questions in order to learn!

What the? I tried to do the app unlock via the Orange site and I get this message after putting in my IMEI #. Yes, I checkd it many many times to make sure it's correct.

Update SPV

Sorry but we are unable to find the IMEI number that you have entered on our database.

If you are certain that the details you have entered are correct, consult the following solutions:

 

1. Your SPV has connected to the Internet at least once

Connection to the Internet enables us to automatically register your details, so that your device is identified prior to unlocking.

If this is not the case, please make an Internet connection now.

 

2. You have connected to the Internet and you still cannot unlock

You will need to download a short Registry application, which will initiate full registration of your SPV.

Click here for Registry application.

 

3. You have submitted a Registry application and you still cannot unlock

Occasionally this error occurs. In this instance you can contact Orange support services direct via the link below and we will ensure that your problem is rectified.

To enable us to help you efficiently please include the following details in your email to us:

  Full name 

  Name of Organisation (if applicable)

  The Mobile Number of the SPV to be unlocked 

  Daytime Contact Number

  Daytime email address

  Whether you downloaded the Registry application from this page

  [email protected]
