I have read about a lot of reg hacks that can be done. What reg editor is everyone using?
TIA.
Google MobileRegistryEditor if you want to do it from your computer, otherwise Resco [monies] or Total Commander [free] on your phone.
Go here and download regeditSTG

Hello everybody,
I've figured a few things out regarding JBed and Opera Mini on Kavana's latest WM6.1 ROM, and I thought I'd share them with you.
Introduction
First off, a quick introduction: Opera Mini 4, a Java MIDlet web browser, is arguably the best browser available for Windows Mobile. It routes traffic through Opera servers, so it doesn't take as much data (or time) to browse the Web, and it has small-screen rendering like iPhone's. Slashdot, for example, loads in seconds under OM, as opposed to half an hour in Pocket IE. Esmertec JBed respects the system's network settings, so it works with the T-Zones $5.99 internet trick.
JBed isn't perfect, though. It has a few glaring issues: network access permissions, inability to use a MIDlet as a systemwide default browser, and ugly fonts. I haven't figured out the last one yet, but the first two are solvable, and here's how.
Network Access Permissions
Most tutorials for fixing this problem refer to the file \Windows\AppDB\Selector.utf; editing this file and replacing the text
Code:
domain=untrusted, \
with
Code:
domain=tckmax , \
fixes the problem under Cloudyfa's JBed. The version of JBed in Kavana's WM6.1 stores its data in \Application Data\JavaDB, and the selector.utf trick doesn't work. The culprit is a missing file named policy.utf, which defines tckmax. I've attached a copy of this file; just move it to your \Application Data\JavaDB directory and the selector.utf trick will work as usual.
Systemwide Default Browser
First off, you can make it easier to access Opera Mini by changing the short_IE.lnk file to open OM instead of PIE. I've attached a version of that file for your convenience; copy it to your \Windows directory and the IE (or T-Zones) button will open a usable browser for a change. This only works if OM is the first MIDlet you've installed; if you have installed other MIDlets you'll have to edit the shortcut (Notepad works nicely) to reflect the change. If OM is your second MIDlet, change s0_ to s1_; third, s2_; and so on.
Also, various MortScript scripts have been floating around that attempt to automate the process of copying a clicked link to the system clipboard, opening OM, and pasting the link into the address bar. I haven't found one that works, but a much better solution is available. The linked post contains a CAB file (which I've reposted here for convenience) that installs an actual application that works well under WM6.1. This one is hardcoded with the assumption that Opera Mini is the first MIDlet that you've installed.
One Other Thing
I recommend backing up your \Application Data\JavaDB directory once you get everything working; you can simply copy it back from your backup after a cold boot to get everything working again. I don't know how to make a CAB file myself, but if someone is up to the challenge, I'd suggest making a single file that installs Opera Mini and the Opera Mini Default Browser application, and optionally replaces the PIE button with OM. Or maybe Kavana can add this to his next ROM
Hope you find this useful!
EDIT: The application I've attached only works if Opera Mini is the first application ever installed under JBed. If you uninstall it and reinstall it, it will get a new suite number. You can look at your selector.utf file and figure out your suite number (e.g., s1_), but I would recommend clearing out your \Application Data\JavaDB folder to reset your suite numbers. Also, it may be a bad idea to edit your selector.utf file in Notepad; a hex editor should avoid corruption issues.

awesome! thanks!
very useful, thanks!
Great Job!!
How do you tell what the s number is for the OM midlet?
When I press the short key cut key I get a "Could not find suite s0_" error message. When I dismiss the message I get the jbed midlet manager window which list Opera Mini and it's the only applet listed. I click on that and Opera Mini opens up.
Perfect, the policy.utf file did the trick. I'm not so sure that I want to replace the iexplore shortcut to OM because there are still some limits to the OM applet over PIE. OM can't launch youtube for example.
Thank you ... thank you - Tim

Kinda bummed.... I cant seem to get this to work. Everytime I edit selector.utf with the new code, my opera midlet dissappears. I have policy.utf in the directory so I am at a loss. ???
Works great on my system - many thanks for this!

I had the same problem. I was using notepad to edit selector.utf which I guess is bad. Try using a hex editor or run this script. http://treo.discussion.treocentral.com/tcforum/showthread.php?t=152078

I think i figured this issue out. Edit the Opera Mini.lnk file from run s0_ to run s4_

Yes, it will depend on how many java programs you installed before so that you can get an accurate count.

Opera is the only java app that I have installed and I still get the error, however, I have installed and uninstalled a few times... so I think there may be .db remnants that force it further down the "install list" e.g. s2_
edit: just had to clean up \\application data\javaDB, works fine
Hi all,
Glad I was able to help. I added a bit of information to my original post; I recommend starting with a blank slate, so to speak, because OperaDefault.cab is programmed with that assumption. When in doubt about your suite number, and if you don't care about OperaDefault, then you can look in (or post) your selector.utf file and get it from there.

Esmertec jbed
Can someone point me to forum where i can get esmertec jbed?
I'm looking for a couple of hours already.
Please help....
Having a very strange problem with Opera Mini 4. I'm using Ricky's Rom V5 with my Dash and Opera will not display fonts correctly. They all seem to have horizontal lines going through them and appear to be slightly stretched (that could be my imagination though). I checked the Jbed version and it appears to be the latest one (I never changed it) and I'm not sure where to go from here. Opera boots and runs fast but it's not legible at all. Any suggestions as to what I can try? I searched XDA but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks,

NOT TRUE.
I tried to use from s0_ to s4_, nothing worked....
Untill i opened my selector.utf(windows\appdb) and seen that gMail is "root=s-1_", so i've change my shortcut to point to "s-1_", this did the trick.
Thanx.
I tried looking for a thread explaining the process, but didn't find one. Help?
WinCe Cab Manager it's all pretty simple once you have software infront of you.
Give it file choose install location add shortcut & REG if needed then save
Best way is to open some .cabs up and see how put together.
I made a tutorial a while ago. It's the free, but more complicated alternative to WinCE Cab Manager:

I loved my TouchPro 2 so much I bought 2 extras about a year after they came out. I'm glad I did because it is now impossible to find a Windows phone with a slide out screen.
My original TP2 died and I am setting up the new one. But...I've run into a problem. I had used CeRegEdit before and it won't seem to load properly on my new laptop (Windows 7 64-bit). It installs but then I keep getting an error message when launching:
Unhandled exception raised!
Error message: Failed to set data for "
If I click "OK" the program loads but when I try to open the registry I get this message:
Unhandled exception raised!
Error message: Cannot create file "C:\Program Files (x86)\CeRegEditor\favs.crg". Access is denied
I have tried installing MobileRegistryEditor and it won't work either.
Does anyone have any thoughts on how I can get a registry editor to load on my laptop and work?
Thank you.
Bill
I'm confused. Why are you trying to put a registry editor on the computer for your phone...? I just use Total Commander, has a registry editor built-in. I guess it would be easier to edit via the PC, but I usually made quick & direct edits to the registry and it wasn't a big deal to do on the phone.
Why I like PC-based registry editors
I prefer the PC-based registry editors because I don't have the best eyesight and doing it on the phone is a real challenge for me. CeRegEdit was fantastic, but I just can't get it working on this new laptop.
I've never tried loading Total Commander directly to the phone. Are there instructions posted somewhere?
Thanks.

I don't think you really need directions, it's quite simple! If you have an aftermarket ROM like EnergyROM, it's already included. http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm if you don't have it.
Then just go up until you see the \\Registry, and have a ball.
Edit - if you have issues seeing the screen, why not use MyMobiler?
I'll try it
Thanks for the tip on the screen enlarger. I will try it.
Quick question on the Total Commander. I am unsure which CAB to download and install.
Processor type Windows installer CAB Notes
ARM/XSCALE/
PXA tcmdpocketarm arm/xscale/pxa
(english only) Most users will need this version!
MIPS/SH3
x86 (CAB only) tcmdpocketmipssh3 mips | sh3 | x86
(english only) For older devices
Additional languages included language page Only needed if you install the CAB version
Or try 2.52 beta 3:
(recommended for WinMobile6.5) Forum beta cabs Supports FTP via SSL, bluetooth with WidComm/Broadcom stack
Download CAB files of Total Commander 2.52 beta 3:
Devices with touch screen (Total Commander Pocket+PocketPC Phone):
arm
mips
sh3
x86
Total Commander Smartphone (devices with NO touch screen):
arm
x86
Total Commander for Windows CE:
arm
mips
sh3
sh4
Any suggestions?

I guess the page is a little confusing, but in reality there's only 2 cab's to the page I linked you to. I figured you'd know it's ARM/XSCALE and not MIPS, but hey .
