command line registry export tool

is there a tool that can export a registry branch via command line?
already search google and this forum but came up with nothing.
when my device hard resets on its own i always loose my application settings and scores in games like astraware. they keep this informations in registry.
if this tool exists, i can just schedule a daily exporting of some branches from my registry to my storage card and import them again later.

you mean the nScriptm tool?
ill check it out. looks like it is capable. let you know later...thanks.

amazing little tool. packed with powerful features. (equivalent of the almighty PowerPro for windows http://www.ppro.org. )
it's almost perfect except that it doesn't support unicode. some apps are using unicode entries in the registry.
nice find though. i'll surely find many uses for this.

Here an exemple of my use that inscribe in larger need
View with NScript help what are the commande that i used

looks like you did overcome the unicode limitation using a workaround. thanks! i'll have a look at your script.
btw, i can't understand the comments. what language is it? i'll try to run in through a translator.

It's french, sorry it was for my use

thanks. you're the best!

How to Enable Cleartype in the Dopod C730?

Hi there,
----------------------
Well, after searching a little more on the Web I found it, and would like to share the method with you (since I couldn't find it here).
You need to create the ClearType key unde HKLM\System\GDI and under it create a new DWORD named Quality with a value of 4 (some sites say to use 1, I didn't try it). Reboot and voila, ClearType for you. It works under WM5 and WM6.
To disable it again just remove the ClearType key.
I Hope it helps.
----------------------
I managed to change the system font from the Nina (wich I don't like) to Segue UI, but I cannot find an option or registry key that allow me to enable Cleartype.
It works perfectly inside applications that manage this (mobipocket reader for example) but not in the User Interface and other applications.
Thanks agains,

hello there what app did you use to add the reg key? .. i tied using phm regedit and the resco regedit apps but none of them sees to allow me to add a new key to my registry .. thanks in advance

My OEM Packages to Share

I know you can get them from other places either in CAB or in OEM Packages. However, it's just too difficult to get them all together.
So I present you some of the OEM packages which I collected, extracted or created for use in my ROM.
1. The first one is taken from Schaps' ROM. It's a 3G-Battery with Indicator. I didn't ask Schaps' permission for this. I hope he's cool with it.
2. O2 Backup is taken from O2 Life and has been fixed to work on all devices. It allows you to backup PIM & My Documents data
3. O2 SMS Plus v1.6 is also taken from O2 Life. It's sorta like SMS Threaded applications. It also allows you to send/receive vCard from other dumb phones. It also support group SMS & Scheduled SMS
4. HTC Album v1.1030.720. Taken from a CAB file with fixed English Interface (Originally Chinese). You can choose which Folder to browse.

Here are another 4 Packages:
1. Newer version of HTC Home v2.1.105.722
2. Adobe Flash Lite v2.1 with the Cool HTC Animation from Schaps
3. Schaps' Advance Configuration v1.1
4. Palm Threaded SMS with fixed database folder. Instead of in Windows Directory, I patched the database to be stored on 'My Documents' folder for easy backup. You need to rename your backup SMS data from 'PalmMsgv001' to 'Palm01' and copy it to 'My Documents' folder.

Another 4 Packages
1. KeepAlive is a very old freeware from WinCE days. It prevents your PPC from turning Off. It's very usefull when you need to let you device on all the time.
2. PowerOff is another old freeware from Scott Seligman. It just shows a tiny PowerOff buttons at the Today Screen.
3. O2 Smart Text is also taken from O2 Life. It's just another thumb inputs with T9 capability. Good for One-Handed Operation
4. Picsel PDF Viewer. Taken from PPCGeeks. A superb PDF viewer compared to Adobe offering.

I downloaded all but I couldn't install even a single one.
These are not cab files nor installation .exe files nor a folder placed in the machine to run off with.
What are they? If these are for ROM cooking only then they are outside what most of us want to deal with.

These are OEM packages for ROM cooking and since this is the upgrading forum its the right place for things like this to be posted (IMO).

I personally wouldn't mind a separate forum for cooking, as some of the questions here are rather 'off topic' from ROM upgrading (flashing) or cooking, since installing an application is not an UPGRADE in any sense of the word...
Until then, it seems like this is the right place for this...
Thanks for your contributions [email protected]...

wow...a package for palmsms...hopefully it works.

Thanks for the packages! Am sure some cookers will find these handy!

how to benefit from thsoe if you are not a cook?
Hello,
a lot of thsoe packages look really useful, but, noby uses them so far in the offical release ROMs.
Cooking your ownROM still sounds intimidaing to me (and mybe others), so is there an easy to get thsoe as cab files, or is it posible to cook a delta ROM just adding those pakcages to one of the release ROMS?
Thanks
Juju

As requested by you here or via PM. Here are the CAB files for the OEM packages.
The 3G Battery Level will replace a system file. So you need to install Certificate CAB to allow the installation.
For Keep Alive, PowerOff, Advance Configuration, just copy the execute file to your Kaiser. No installation is needed.
HTC Home & Album CABs are widely available so I won't post them again. To change the HTC Album to English menu (from Chinese) you need to copy the 'RFileShell.dll' from Resco Explorer english Version.
Enjoy!

There is another nice application called O2 Theme which works well with kaiser. This is the WM6 version of O2 Plus. To learn about this, you can go to this thread I posted in Athena board:

Hi,
the M8 is standard Software input panel (hereinafter SIP) modules, that's means if applications that follow the windows mobile design guide, it will work properly with different sized SIP.

Subject: M8 help hint
hello developers
your product M8 is very good!
one more idea, to improve usability:
make an option to let keyboard appear from top of screen, till the middle.
the reason is: some applications have text input field at the bottom, but doesn't recognize keyboard allocated this place. and doesn't redraw it's input field higher (on the top of new appeared keyboard), so application text input field becoming invisible until the end of input.
another solution on same problem:
make your keyboard application it's own temporary input window on top of keyboard.
(it may optionally include increased font size for better visibility on street)
will be waiting for your reply, and a new version
thanks
now, let's wait for new release of it (under name of O2 or standalone M8)

Palm Threaded SMS changed database folder

I guess this is somewhat helpful because it's easier to back up the My Documents folder than find PalmMsgv001 in \Windows and back that up.
However, I hardly ever put anything into \My Documents because of the chance of forgetting about backing it up before flashing a new ROM. Hopefully someday we'll see a Threaded Messaging app that has more options - like save folder, and font size (the font is so tiny!). That's why I liked TxtMan - but it crashes too often, and isn't completely integrated into the Windows messaging system.

if someone could fix palm to work on the kaiser thatd be fabalous.. i know im jumping off topic but im willing to offer up $25.00!

How to create a .reg file (what's the format)

Hello all,
I hope I used the search function correctly, I could not find an answer to this one. If You have a link to an answer, please be so kind to point me out in that direction.
Each time I do a flash of a new ROM I go through the process of installing the mayor things I need. Although I know that Shashimi (if I write it correctly) will solve this issue, I am trying to get to smoothing the job of some standard actions I do for each ROM.
I install my Resco Explorer 2008 and edit the registry.
I know all the specific entries I need, some are new, some are value changes.
There is a possibility in Resco to import .reg files. I tried to create my own by taking a .reg file I downloaded from here, but Resco complained it not being in the right format.
Can somebody inform how the file should look.
Is there a difference between value changes for an existing entry or new entries. Is there a certain Header which should be available.
I am sure these questions are answered somewhere, but the Wiki and Search did not let me find an answer.
And yes, I will go to Shashimi sometimes, but am not ready yet.
Thanks all in advance,
Ruud

I used TaskMgr to export some registry keys and it looks exactly like this:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\BTRouter]
"BTBaudrate"=dword:003d0900
"BTPortName"="COM7:"
Hope this helps

Hi ZaxXx,
exactly this format is what I see around here. But trying to import this through Resco Explorer 2008 does not work. Also simply clicking on the (text)-file with this format does not result in the registry being updated to the contents of the file.
How would You re-import these registry entries, other than by hand?
Edit :
OK, I just tried to import a file which was exported by TaskManager, this actually works.
But my files, which look the same to me are rejected. Time to start looking real careful, what the difference is.
Regards,
Ruud

OK solved it.
Or at least to some extend.
I can import the file through TaskManager and the file is accepted without mistakes. The entries do appear in the registry after that.
BUT, Resco Explorer 2008 still judges the file corrupt and does not want to import.
It will save a lot of time like this, so I am happy.
Thank You,
Ruud

I'm using PHM Registry Editor it allows me to do the following tasks:
Explore the registry to find the operating system and applications configuration,
modify system and applications tweeks not available from the standard options screens,
export all or parts of the registry to .reg files,
backup and restore the complete registry and
perform search on the registry data
Export a key, look into it with notepad (ASCII) editor, then you'll know its format

IGo8 and Primo sxs.txt generator

Just discovered this handy little tool for writing sys txt for Igo 8 or Primo.
Thanks to kimyaci and robynk
https://rapidshare.com/files/4073795642/SysConfigurator_1.2.rar
Posted it on a couple of older threads but they appear to be obsolete. This handy little tool allows you to fully customise and generate a sys.txt file for both Igo and Primo. It has an easy to use interface in English, Spanish and French. Pretty self explanatory. No more trawling forums for half remembered commands .
Basically it is a windows program that categorises many of the Igo and primo sys text commands. It provides clear explanations of what they do. You just tick the boxes for those that you want to use and the program can then generate a new sys.text file or update an existing one. Very useful for both customising and troubleshooting in IGo as it saves you having to look up the commands or even doing any typing.
The original comes from a spanish forum and I presume any updates will be published there.

Requires registration.... Upload it to a public share...

Sorry I'm not sure what that means? This is just a link to a piece of software that I thought was useful.

When I click the link it says, you must register. I and also others don't like to register and would appreciate if you could move the file to another place for downloading.

EDIT
All done. Rapidshare link now in place. Sorry about that.

Downloaded ok. fantastic thanks

425 downloads in total. Guess some people have found it useful

iGo sys.txt configurator: Excellent
@corrsea
Many thank mate. Great small software.
Unbelievable that link is still working.
Although I am using iGO since the first release on old PDA, I always use to alter the sys.txt file manually.
I did know that such configurator exists and I have never searched for it.
Respect.:good:
long live open source

just downloaded it.
Great find for me.
Thanks

Gone thu all the menu options setting in particular the warning setting The over speed warning works as well visual and voice announcement department. Set speed camera and red light for visual and voice announcement. Only the visuals come up but no accompanying voice message Downloaded sysconfigure looked @ the sys file to see difference to the gps original sys file and observed no difference in the warning list. Not knowing sys script requirements don't understand how to force voice messages via the script An example of a howto would be appreciated

did manual editing of the sys file restarted the gps then closed down primo re-writes the sys file so changes are lost! Suspect the problem is in the primo software
