Roger's ROM - anyone know how to disable the red "smartphone" banner ...the file is "Rogers_branding.gif" I would like to not change it, but disable it completely. Also the startup/shutdown screens - can they be disabled, not edited?
You'd have to go into Registry and search for Rogers_branding.gif and delete all the values for the keys. Do NOT delete the keys. Just the values. Then it will disappear.

EDIT: Never mind.
Go to and change/create:
HKLM/System/Shutdown - 1 - values --> value name: Splash --> value data: \Windows\HTC_LogoImg_320x240.bmp
HKLM\System\Startup - 1 - values --> DWORD with value name: Duration - value data: 1000
STRING with value name: Splash - value data: \Windows\ms_splash.pnq
You can not edit a string or dword. So you have to delete and create!
Copie ms_splash.png to your windows folder. (change jpg into pnq)
- change the regkey: hklm\software\microsoft\shell\rai\msbranding values bannerimage value name in "none"
- change the regkey: hklm\software\microsoft\shell\rai\mscdial values bannerimage value name in "none"
Restart and your phone and startup and shutdown are like the HTC roms and all the Roger branding is gone..
Instead of deleting and creating strings you can just change the strings under these keys:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Startup\
HKLM\Software\HTC\Shutdown\
The keys here are used by the dll, so you don't really need to change anything else for the startup/shutdown...
question
when changing the start up screen
can you change it to an animated gif file ?
Yes. I'm pretty sure it has to be .gif though.

I must be tired. I forgot to also mention to soft-reset immediately following changing the carrier name. If you don't, it will revert back to the original.

Found the string on my phone but everthing i try will not make it stay. I,ve tried to soft reset hold the power button and turn back on but with the XDA AT&T back. I was trying to find that string in the default.hv file but its not in there. This is the only thing close to that string =
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone]
"Phone Status Flags"=dword:10
Is there another way to change while i'm making a rom?

I see it in the reg on the pda but i dont see it in the default.hv file.
ok found out where I can change the XDA part of the current operators name.
HKLM\software\oem\phonesettings\longnameprefix or you can disable the XDA part by changing 1 to a 0 decimal on enable3glongnameprefix.
I do not know of this what you want, but you may be looking for this "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RIL\OperatorNames" where you want to add a key (string) with your operator code (i.e. "22601"="My network").
Some codes I found here:
http://www.firstphoneshop.co.uk/mob...ra-information---service-provider-codes.shtml
In my case I use:
<!-- Network custom name -->
<characteristic type="HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RIL\OperatorNames">
<parm name="22601" value="Vodafone RO" datatype="string" />
</characteristic>

This is strange, i copied your configuration and tested it in my comupoter, it works fine.
If you opened CVE and close it normally (the configuration will be saved again while cloing), the configuration should not not looks like your posted. the lanuguage should be the first element of configuration node. It may caused by path you placed CVE or permission issue.

I never wrap the open file dialog. The open file dialog i am using is system provided, do you have any other WPF application in your computer that with a open file feature, if so, can you tested it whether it works fine?

Opening any CPR file the application is crashing. I am uploading the error log file. Please look and give a resolution.
Copied the "<language>en-us</language>" just below the configuration tag. But the problem is still the same.
All is in Chinees. is there anything else I need to check?

The exception is caused by some color string of TextStage element in your CPR file, normally, i define the color in CPR file use the #FFxxxxxx pattern.
it seems that the color definition between WM and WPF have inconsistent rules. So can you look through the CPR file and try to find out whether there is any color definition in <TextStage/> section is not follow the rule?
I will update my code to fix the problem if you can kindlly post the inconsistant rule. Thx.

Thanks for posting your configuration. I should update my build package to include the language element instead of let the users update the xml by themselves.

The language works now,
Thanks, but the app seems to crash a lot when loading an cpr.
Disabling effects helps, but the apps crashes on other actions as well.

It's caused by color token:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3952898&postcount=12
i will add more check of the token, by unless i get the inconsistant token, the color may not display correctly.
I cant even launch it
No error log... so where do i need to install all the files? it simply says that the app fails... thats all!
what im a doing wrong?
I set all in C:\ and the stwater added to windows directory
In windows 8, programs "cannot" set themselves as the default to open a file. As a programmer, I want my power over the computer, so I have found a way to change the associations.
The "user choice" of the default file handler is located in the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\[extension here]\UserChoice
Unfortunately, this key is protected by some mystery hashing algorithm that incorporates the extension, your user account, and the program in some convoluted way.
Fortunately, we can, of course, set the default file handler by brutally deleting the other file handlers with extreme prejudice, making windows think that your program is the only available program capable of opening that type of file, thereby making it default.
These are located in:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\[extension here]\OpenWithList
HKCR\[extension here]\OpenWithList
How to:
1-set your program as "default" the normal way, as you would in windows 7.
2-delete the OpenWithList keys located in HKCU and HKCR, and if necessary, the UserChoice key.
3-???
4-Profit
If you use this process, please post feedback so that I know it works. When I get around to it, I will write a program as an example.
cool thanks work form me
Thank you for sharing this information. It pointed me in the right direction.
To not let the users continually shift between the desktop and the default Store Apps (Metro applications), we want to start all images and videos in the desktop programs.
It didn't work on our versions of Windows 8 Pro. HKCR\[extension here]\OpenWithList was empty or it didn't exist. The solution for me was:
1) change as needed: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Exp lorer\FileExts\[extension here]\OpenWithList
2) remove all the keys beginning with 'AppX' for the desired file extensions in [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\[extension here]\OpenWithProgids]
If the user can use a virtual registry, you probably need to delete it for the elevated administrator and the user.
The keys beginning with AppX are the links to the Store Apps.
(Do not forget to backup registry keys before making changes)
All the extensions for video and images:
.3g2, .3gp, .3gp2, .3gpp, .aac, .adt, .adts, .AIF, .AIFC, .AIFF, .ASF, .ASX, .AU, .avi, .bmp, .dib, .gif, .jfif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg, .jxr, .M1V, .m2t, .m2ts, .M2V, .m3u, .m4a, .m4v, .MID, .MIDI, .mod, .mov, .MP2, .MP2V, .mp3, .mp4, .mp4v, .mpa, .MPE, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .mts, .png, .RMI, .SND, .tif, .tiff, .TS, .TTS, .wav, .WAX, .wdp, .wm, .wma, .wmd, .wms, .wmv, .WMX, .wmz, .WPL, .WVX
I hope this information can helps someone.

If you read the thread title, you would realize that this is referring to programmatic modification of default associations. MS "prohibits" programs from modifying the default file associations, so this is a valid workaround.

Hello,my Lumia 830's "Back" button didn't work.So I want to use virtual button bar by editing registry.but I can't find this key:HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\NavigationBar\SoftwareModeEnabled
Maybe it has changed......so,where can I find it?
Sorry my English is bad....
OS Version is 15184.36002
Thank you
This is firmware version. What other values did you find under NavigationBar?
Why not add this key using custom pfd or any other app?

Other values seem like resolution…1080*1920、1366*768…when I open it，shows:values:back,hide,search,start.and key:height,separatorheight
I used interop tool 1.8beta to add this key，but it have disappeared when I rebooted
Create the key and it works
You have restored ndtksvc path? Use custom pfd, type of value is integer dword 32bit., value = 1.
