Hkey_local_machine - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

hello folks!i want to ask a noob quastion!where can i find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE?because i want to change the 9 quicklinks to 16 and i dont want to put o .cab file to make job..i have total commander but i cant find it.thanks!i have hd2

you will need a registry editor like PHM regedit. I would however recommend using a cab file to do this for you. You have said that you are a noob and if you do something wrong you can end up having to hard reset your phone and it's just alot easier with a cab.

im noob for regisrty stuff but its ok!im using the cab from Co0kieMonster right now and everything is ok!thanks by the way

With TotalCommander go to root directory.
Choose //Plugins
Then choose registry
HKLM is what you're looking for.
Make changes with care.

i think you make a mistake!(but trully thanks for your answer)
i think the correct is :
root\regidtry\HKLU\software\HTC\longpressendkey\isquickshow
and you change the "0" to "1"
am i correct?

No problems, that cab is awesome BTW. Have been using it for a while

i think that with this cab my hd2 is slow....i dont know why!thats why i want to change quicklinks from registy

no answer?

changing it from the registry wont make it any better. You can try another 20 or 16 shortcuts as they may work better. The Cookie monster one comes with a few extras which may account for the slowness.
If you extract the setup.xml from the cab (using winrar or similar) on your PC you can see the changes that it makes. Also as far as i am aware the shortcuts is not just a registry change but also an edit of 1 or more the the core sense files.

Well..... wrong place to post this but, it either needs to be cooked into the ROM or you can buy Wisbar advanced!
Actually it doesn't need to be cooked in. You need resco explorer and the DLL/MUI/BMP files. use active sync to copy them to your cell to like your "My Documents Folder and the use Resco explorer to copy them to your /windows directly. You'll need to run SDKcert and a registry fix cab first though for the new files to work. Everything is in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437307. Make sure the onces you download are qvga though. That thread is for a vga device and most files are in VGA format. I've been playing around with them already.

A Question About Icons...

Alright... here's the deal. This may be a completely neophyte-esque question, but here I go anyway.
So I have File Explorer Extension v2.05 installed, and I love it and all, but I can't stand that icon! How could I keep that Extension installed but use the normal WM6 File Explorer icon installed instead?
Also, on a side note, where are folder icons stored on WM6?
Thanks much, guys!
Eh. Icons are stored..
I dont know your first question , but due to wm 6.5 letting you change your icons. They are in the windows folder/ and you go to whatever program icon u want changed. or windows/icons/edit

Yeah, I don't have 6.5... I'm 6.1, standard Verizon Touch Pro ROM.
Other question, maybe this is easier... how could I get the standard File Explorer icon, then set the File Explorer Extension shortcut icon to that?
It's a good question, and one I'd like to know the answer to.
Most programs pull in the icon associated with the .exe file - M2D is a good example when populating the launcher tab.
How do you change the icon associated with the .exe without an external program to do this?
e.g. not using 'reStart' on 6.5.
Nobody else knows anything about this? C'mon, I know people have changed icons in the past... help me out, here!

HTC Touch PRO question, Opera to I.E.

hi, im at work and tried looking for the answer before posting this but didn't find it. anyways i prefet I.E. to Opera and want to change the default on my homescreens to I.E. instead of Opera, im sure theres got to be a way in the registry. so if anyone could help me with the path and edit, i'd totally apprecieate it. thanks
If yoe have SKTools (very good application):
System Tweaks -> PIE page -> Set PIE as default browser
By Registry
Serach "browser" -> change voices "opera.exe" and "operaL.exe" with "iexplore.exe"
D'rath
hi, thanks for the reply. i tried searching my registry using phm registry editor but cant find the browser area im looking for. by any chance you wouldnt know the string and location to make the edit to? thank you in advance.

Chome visual editor only is for edit , search and use this , i used this for my works
I want to edit things like scrollbars, highlights, softkey backgrounds. This doesn't seem to do it.
Find a WM6.5.X theme file. Rename to *.cab. Extract reg, and use that as your base. Prefer classicblue myself. Now get a pic you want, convert to your resolutions, create a cab with it, and insert reg!
EDIT: If you search using the link in my sign, you will find the answers. It has been discussed in detail before.
I just figured it out that tsk files are actually cabs as you posted this! Wow, in all my years with Windows Mobile I never knew that!
How to "extract reg"??

It doesn't work properly for WM6.5.x.
Use WinCE CAB Manager to open the CAB of any theme you like and replace the graphic files with your own. You can also edit the TSK, if you want. Just learn by doing, I figured it this way as well .
This is my basic lesson of titanium, this one in Spanish
