I'd like to backup and re-use some keys that belongs to some apps, in order to re-import them after a new and fresh install of the app to have all the prefs already prepared.
When I save reg keys on my memory card, it saves (without extension) a WinCE Registration File (*.reg).
The problem is when I try to re-import these keys into the registry because... I CAN'T!
The device doesn't recognize the files and I don't know how to import 'em
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP please
found: done with resco

how do i set my mail and attachments to store on the memory card?
Inbox and Attachments on Storage Card
Create the folders on your Storage Card '\Storage Card\Inbox' and the subfolder '\Attachments'
Import the registry keys as below. (try Registry Workshop and you can connect to Mobile device registries from your PC and import reg files. This saves having a Registry editor installed on the phone and typing on the device). If you are entering these keys manually rather than importing a *.reg file only use single slashes for the paths. Restart your device after doing this.
>>These are String Values
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MAPI]
"AttachPath"="\\Storage Card\\Inbox\\Attachments"
"PropertyPath"="\\Storage Card\\Inbox"
The IE & Mail SD Storage link here will do this for you... just copy the cab to the phone and run it...

Hi there. Am using a Magician. Each time I try to attach a document, I'm told the device cannot find my Storage Card. Any sugestions?
I am running the LVSW 3.30.2.1 version of WM6. The hack for WM5 in the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...ermes_Registry) does not work in this version. Does anyone know how to relocate the IE cache to a storage card in WM6?
Thanks!
try sktools or pocketmechenic. it works for universal running wm6
This hack from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry (1/2 way down the page) does work for Hermes variants on WM5/WM6 such as Cingular/The New AT&T/AT&T 8525 (my backup phone) and Softbank X01HT (my primary phone) (I made a registry entry for it but of course, I use my login name such as \Storage Card\LoginName\Profiles\Temporary Internet Files, etc).:
PocketIE Cache in storage card
Create these folders:
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Temporary Internet Files
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Cookies
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\History
Add the following registry keys, string data type:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"Cache"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Temporary Internet Files"
"Cookies"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Cookies"
"History"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\History"
You then would need to do soft-reset to get the new folders to work.

PIE on Storage Card
Custel's WM6 has HTCustom (and other's like Pimp My Black) have options to change the location of PIE cache to the MicroSD card.
Just run HTCustom
Select the Pocket IE tab
and choose SD Card (or Main Memory)
Save will SoftReset your device
Be careful with the D-Pad option on the same screen. Some people don't like the way that changes the behavior of PIE as well as message reading.

Thanks, crazynut. The trick is in the registry string. This ROM includes reg strings as in the wiki and your reply, with the default path "\windows\Profiles\guest\*" I verified that that is the location where the cache files were stored and then tried changing that to "storage card\Profiles\guest\*" and modifying folder names on the storage card to match followed with a soft reboot. It didn't work, either. Could you spell out what you did in more detail?

N00b download one of the tweak tools either pimp my black V2.0 or Htcusom 1.4 and it will set the reg for you and your done.... no reg hacks no nothing just some clicking on the screen...
It works as in the wiki. I am not sure what Registry Editor you are using. You should be able to use Total Commander or a similiar product. I think a lot of people like PHM Registry Editor. I use Kilmist Registry Editor since I got my company to pay for it.
That being said, AustinSync said in another post that you can use one of the tweaking tools to click the location to the storage card (my experiencde with doing that tells me that they just do not let you choose which folder on the storage card).
Good luck.
Cheers

I created a reg file using task manager when I had Meschle's Touct 3.1 ROM installed because I needed to run a registry hack every morning to correct a registry setting change my Exchange server was forcing on me.
I've since moved to Meschles Vanilla 2.1 ROM, but there's no application associated with the REG files so my registry file won't load any more when I click on the file.
I've loaded both HTC and fpb Task Managers bu tthey don't associate the ".reg" file suffix.
I've installed Regedit, which associates the .reg files, but tha tjust opens the files for editing rather than running and loading the registry changes.
Can anyone advise what I need to do so that I can easily "load" my registry change ".reg" file again?
Thanks,
Graham
Hi there,
I use Resco Explorer with the built-in registry editor. It will solve your two problems in one: RE will let you 'associate' files so they open with an app of your choice, and the registry editor will let you import/export keys.
You could even put a shortcut to this .reg file in your startup folder so that after a soft-reset it would be imported again!
Hope this helps.
hey guys, after miri's recent v19 rom release, i've got to the point where manually reinstalling stuff is getting more of a chore than a pleasure, so i've been playing around with sdconfig.txt and self-built .cab files...
however, there are some things i cant configure due to them being in the registry.
so far this is what ive done:
- used 'CeRegEditor' to capture the active registry (both stock rom, and fully configured the way i want it to be)
- compared the 2 files, and saved the output to another file
- copied this file (i've tried both .cereg, and .reg formats) to sd card, and attempted to run. when executed from my HD, the file format is unrecognised and will not import the registry values.
so, what have i missed? why wont a .cereg or .reg file 'install' on my HD?
the idea is to have this registry file in the sdconfig.txt (or a cab, and exec'd from sdconfig.txt), so on hard reset it is a completely 'hands-off' re-install.
Create a Cab file. You can create Cab files that only install registry settings. Take the '2_Way_Plus_InCall_Recording' cab file and build upon that maybe. Edit the '_Setup.xml' to include your registry settings and then you can install them just as you would install a Cab file.
How many registry setting do you want to change?
.reg file is 260 line file - 25kb.
while there seems to be a limit on what the registry is holding, it is configuring some of the more simplier and silly things...
- Device name
- Owner info
- Manila Weather
- power settings
- 'changescreen' app settings (app found on these forums)
- 'HD tweak' app settings (again, found on these forums)
at this point in time, it's more of a proof of concept, rather than finalized version. now i know how to get things working, i can fine tune the reg settings and provision my phone.
it seems 'ceregedit' does not correctly convert reg > XML (or reg > CAB).
however, i found another tool called 'SDConfigGen', which does correctly convert reg > XML. i've been able to use the XML in my sdconfig.txt, which is what i wanted!
while the above reg keys work, it's not an exact build of how i had my phone before...
there are some things i would like to automatically configure:
- pre-configured Wifi profiles (theres maybe 4 AP's i use)
- automatically set 'touchflo 3d' as the default theme.
- a complete hands-off install. (things like pre-setup the HTC auto-configure "sim card change")
- automatically accept a security certificate from our activesync server (i have activesync config in a .cab file, but it requires you to manually click 'yes' to the security cert install box)
im sure a google will help with a few points above!
Ok I'm not sure if you program at all or if this would really easy your pain much but you can download a trial version of Visual Studio 2008. It has a project option to build cab files for ppc devices. Might be worth a look if you have a lot of keys to do. Its not much better than doing them by hand though. I've included a screen shot of VS doing it so you can see. BTW its obviously been scrunched up.
Try this

I used this to do what your trying to do, it will not import .reg files on the trial version but theres an older version on piratebay that will:

Thanks to NighPlayer32
DRMClient is MUST-HAVE!
You miss drm and releted reg key.
Also I have this problem, becouse I don't have a windows pc, so I can't use ceregedit to import the key.
If someone knows another way to import this key, let me know.
save the regkey file in unicode format, then import with total commander, thats what i did
Thanks, it works.
I set the file as unicode utf-16 and resco import the key.
However under this rom I can't get slideview working...
please help. i also have the same problem... how do i fix my slideview? i really need it because it is the default image viewer.
