Hi everyone,
I have an XDA Exec and my current project is to customise my extended rom to install resco, magic button, some ringtones into the windows folder, batti and not have O2 Active (just dingo's connections cab). I have sorted the above, but now I would like to export my whole registry with just these applications installed, along with all my settings 9owner information, MSN, camera settings etc...) If I export the whole registry through Resco, can I then convert that into a CAB using WinCE CAB Manager or soething similar? Is it a good idea? How do I imprt a registry file successfully into WinCE, as I have tried it in the past with previous devices and never got anywhere. I would be extremely grateful for any help, even if its just someone telling me not to bother wasting my time if it won't work!
Cheers,
Fin
WinCE CAB Manager will allow you to make a cab from a reg. However, there are limitations I think, and whether it's wise to do the whole reg is another question. Some of it is volatile. If you pick and choose relevant user settings, you should be safe.

D'oh! I just found out the hard way that importing your whole registry doesn't work for quite a few reasons! Thanks for your reply, I still can't work out CAB manager though. Is there anything particular you have to remember when importing a REG file into a CAB?
There's some issue I read somewhere that it breaks some lines or something in the imported reg. Not sure how or why...
I'd suggest just get the relevant sections, control panel, software, gwes etc... you'll have to glance through your whole reg, try it in individual sections, then compile the lot into one functional bunch.

i have been using WinCE cab manager a lot and i have found that importing small sections of 'code' is more reliable than huge chunks, and i have used this methood succesfully to create customised cab file settings (see my theme+ringtone+dialler post) where i extracted parts of the registry and posted into WinCE cab.
thanks
ok i have been reading this forum alot to find out about certain modifications I can perform on my excalibur.....
is HKLM the same as HKEY?
in my registry editor all I have is HKEY ...
am i in the wrong place?
HKLM stands for HKEY LOCAL MACHINE
figures...
thanks, makes sense
couldnt find a definitive answer already so thought it useful to open a clean thread for others. What is the best tools (preferably free) peeps are using to edit the registry (regedit) on their blackstone / touch hd ?
i find that PHM Reg Edit works best for me
I'm really amazed by Task Manager v3.1 from FdcSoft. It's a whole package deal, which is awesome unless you only want the regedit part...
This is their site
funny enough, ended up paying for the resco suite...its a great pack with a top regedit tool and only a few bucks.
thanks for your feedback
I'm on the ATT Tilt 2, no custom roms installed. I'm using Total Commander as my registry editor, but every time I try to change something I get "function not supported" in a dialog box. I did some searching on the Rhodium boards for this but have found nothing. Is there anything I can do to release this lock? Perhaps a different registry editor?
Thanks for any help,

I've never heard of that before, but my advice is to try another registry editor. I personally use Dotfred's task manager, as it includes loads of functions including a decent registry editor. Otherwise, try any remote registry editor, which allow you to edit the registry of a WM device from a desktop computer while the device is synced with ActiveSync/WMDC.
I did do a search, and there are plenty of threads out there on what to tweak, and what settings to use.... but specific thread on what registry editor everybody uses... what do you use?
Thank you!

Search for Total Commander in this thread

Google search PHM Regedit. It is small, fast and uncomplicated.
FdcSoft Task manager. Seems a bit more advanced than Total commander for the registry side of things.

I'll second that recommendation...PHM is smooth, uncomplicated, lean (low resource use) and works great for regediting duties, just doesn't have all the extra feature-sets found in Total Commander, etc (which aren't required for reg editing).
Hint...just remember to use it (or whatever editor you choose) to make a backup copy of your reg before any tinkering, and to do a soft-reset after any changes.
