[stupid question] Registry - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hi everybody.
i am a new user of WM and i would love to permanently delete the not-so-useful "useful icons under the calendar as they ruin the look of my screen. However, the cab file i found on this forum didn't really work on my phone.
And as far as i see in this forum. i can also edit it in Registry Editor, but my stupid question is that how i can get to "Registry" ???
Please help. Thanks a lot.

You have to install a registry editor, WM does not come with one. Try this thread or try searching.

S710 Registry Excerpt Request Resco :RSystemInfo

Hi,
hopefully someone can help me out a bit.
I want the original System Info application back. It has been replaced by resco explorer..
Tried hours of searching the internet, a lot of people have the 'problem', but no solution.
Who can be so kind as to provide me with the original contents of registry key:
[HKEY_LM] \software\microsoft\shell\rai\:rsysteminfo
and the shortcut "System Info" located in \Windows\Start Menu\
But only if you're not using the Registry Tool from Resco, because chances are.. you have the 'wrong' info there too..
I suppose SKTools or Mobile Registry Editor users can provide the info.
Thanks and Cheers,
Roel
Edit:
I see a lot of reads.. but no replies.. it's a very simple request. I guess I forgot to say please..
Here it is then: Please help me out?

Question about editing .cab's

I've asked this question before. maybe it's a dumb question. but Id really like to change certain images inside say..A dialer skin. What program would I use to do so?
any help would be amazing. I've search all over but havent found something that can actually pull the images out of a cab file.
thank you!
Jon.
Try WinCE CAB Manager.
I also heard you can Edit CABs with Visual Studio 2005.
thank you very much!

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
Some more recent findings you might want to take a look into you need them anyway when you're getting into UC;

Use SK-Tools (not free, though partly functional) it exports registry and can create a cab! It has also a reg editor. Plus...

This Rollup is an excellent overall HTC FAQ IMHO. It'll give you a very good overall impression of how to flash a ROM.
When you too are in cooking ROM's then this thread 'll interest you!
When you PgDn you'll see Extendir Cabs a very nice CAB utility;

The big question about registry edits

Hi, i'm sorry to ask such a noob question, but it seems that i'm missing a lot of goodies when it comes to editing registry. I have edited very few registry lines to add a thing or two, but i've read in various posts that there's a lot of good things to do in the registry field, and i haven't figured out yet what are the best things to do. I even saw somewhere that if you don't have a registry editor then you only have half WinMo.
Can someone post a list of the best registry edits?
Thanks in advance.
Please remember ... changing the Registry can harm your device and you will end up in a Hardreset!
But beside of this warning
You're right. Changings in the Registry can release the real potential of you device.
Try "TSALTAs Magic Tweak". A cab that's full of registry tweaks.
As i'm posting this from my HD i can't give you the link to the Thread.
Just search for it.
best regards
fwt
