First i want to thank Heathcliff74 for the root tools that the samsung focus to be able to access these parts of the registry and write to them, we were not able to reach or do before. Also want to thank Julien Schaps for the registry editor, and also his other apps. Also thanks to Reddragon93 for His advance explorer.
Thanks to XBOXMOD and others in his findings with parts of the registry edits and tweeks as those as well works for samsung.
I thought it would be nice to have a thread for samsung registry edits and how to. So everyone share your findings as you do or add one thats not here.
SMS SOUND TONES
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\SMS
and change the value data in sound:
value data: \My documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma
For those with NODO
select the ringtone in settings, rintones & sounds, that you want as SMS and goto HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\......Ringtone "0" folder and copy the value data, then go paste that into the value data for the sound for SMS. Then go back and select the phone ringtone for calls in settings that you want for phone ring.
If you dont have NODO just create the correct path in SMS sound \My Documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma
All edits are at your OWN risk.

These changes may impact the card stability issue but mine still remains stable. But i think in my experience it saves on battery and i also can tell a difference with the speed, i have no lag at all and seams to be a bit quicker!!

Yes it will show none in the settings menu, but it changes the path that it selects for the SMS tone. Just send yourself a txt and you see. It will be possible for it to show up in UI maybe when file is able to be added to windws folder I think.

Make sure you have the path correct in SMS\ sound: Value: \My documents\My Ringtones\xxxxxx.wma if you are creating the value. It works i promise, try a reset after making the edit. Being able to have it in the windows folder will only allow it to show up in the list selection i do believe.

It is in the windows folder listed as mologo.file
I think i may have the HD video resolution to be able to set higher, but havent tried to play video on computer yet to see if its full screen....will try to do that tomorrow and see how it works.
Im curious Lucas , once we have file system access (Focus) , with the mologo file , would you be able to change the file completely or would you have have to use the name mologo (even with a different picture) ? I mean personally I dont even want the screen to show up , giving me a faster boot!
My colletion of AppIcons & AppTiles for replacing the icons with Advanced Config by Julien Schaps.
Added new Glass Icons & Some more Icons to the non Glass version.
Instructions;
Download & Install Advanced Configuration Tool for Windows Phone 7 Beta from above link. Download is near the middle of the page above the comments & advertisement.
Copy the AppTile_*.png & AppIcon_*.png's to \Windows of the device using Windows Phone Device Manager or the USB Hack/TouchXplorer/Advance Explorer methods.
Open Advanced Config Tool & change to Tile & Icons tab.
Select desired app/hub & then select the desire AppTile & AppIcon png's. (Some Hubs/App are currently disabled in the Advanced Config tool because they have Live Tiles & changing those Tile images will cancel out the Live Tile Functionality.)
Select Change, then OK to confirm changes.
There's a second pop up asking you to restart to make changes, click OK if done, Cancel if you want to change more icons.
NOTE: According to the developer of Advanced Configuration Tool, schaps, it works with HTC & LG devices for change icons. The tool also has some support for Samsung devices, but NOT Icon changing. Please report any problems about it not working to the developer. This thread is just a collection thread for icons. I can't help getting it working.

Not exactly an XDA thing or on topic, but found an interesting Windows tweak for Media Center. I've always hated how if you mute Media Center, it mutes the system volume so you can't play music/youtube/etc in the background really. Well I found an app/shortcut "hack" that'll allow this. Download Media Center Mute & follow the instructions included. The just click the shortcut to mute/unmute Media center without effecting the system volume.

The site has both WM 6.5 CAB files & WP7 XAP files. You want the XAP files, he makes apps for both OS'es. You need your device Unlocked & Tom XAP Installer v1.2 to side load the app. There are quite a few thread here on XDA that have instructions to Unlock your device.

No reason, I just didn't know the specific size & figured 200 x 200 should be big enough & would be scaled down.

3 icons in metro style
These are my first icons, in metro style
Special made for:
Ascii Art SMS
DeBrander (Homebrew)
RemoveSideloadLimit (Homebrew)
I know they are not the greatest, but maybe you guys will like them
how to use the icon? which folder i can copy ?
just put them in the windows folder of your mobile (for example with the windows phone device manager) and apply them with the new advanced config tool.
@drkfngthdragnlrd Maybe you can put this in the first post
Thanks very much!!
Another question,why can not choose the people,phone,message .etc. when i change the icon.
Ok... No new thread
Sinse we can make this a Collection thread then ...
This is the first set of the icons that i will make for use in tiles.
If i find some time i will make another set...if you want any specific one
please let ne know..
Thx very much for your icons pack!
Have you an idea to find app Phone to change this to AppTile_phone.png
I can find with advanced tools 1.2..?
:-(
For now, those built in Hubs that have Live Tiles have been disabled by the Advanced Config developer. If you change those icons, you'd loose the Live Tile functionality.

It's a fact that your design goes against the metro theme. There's a reason why MS didn't make anything look like that.
my opinion is that metro is better but it's good that you're making them for those of you who don't like metro and want eye candy. It does look good though

HI. First off all i have to tell you that my english is terrible. Sorry for that.
I have made the decision to edit my HTC Hub Live Tile, because i did'nt like the HTC Logo at the Tile and more the 4 little app-icons.
I have found the registry entry "hkey_local_machine/software/htc/htc_hub/token".
There are be 4 values named feature 1,2,3,4. I have replaced any .png value with "NO_SUCH_FILE" and pressed "OK". But every time i did this, the Value changed back to his original state. Can someone tell me whats my mistake?
The next thing is to erase the HTC Logo from all the 44 pngs. I think it should be not really a problem for someone with the know how. I have tried it and it looks... let us say dilettantish.
So if someone could help me please... and sorry again for my broken english.
First part is done... xD Got the live tile now without the "tokens"

can you please upload your xap file?
It's not a xap. It's only a transparent png. I wasn't able to modify the regiytry because the htc hub app seems to reset the registry everytime the app refresh itselfs.
Thats why i searched the 4 Tokens and overwrote them with the transparent pngs.

Edit the attached images.
Note: The Number Images in that directory are the Weather Temperature in the Live Tile.
EDIT: Oh no, we need a root access to do this. The files must be hidden or you just can't copy them out to edit yet. From what I've been told, the UI is supposed to be XMl based like CHome's CPR's in WM 6.5, but can't find the files anywhere.
As for the HTC, someone posted this already.
yeah... but it looks like my dilettantish try to erase the "HTC" by myself. A friend of mine is still working on it.
Wtf? Your IE Tile is themed, too.
Looks like its just a question of time to customize WP7.

You need Advanced Configuration Tool v 1.2.0.0 by Schaps to change icons. You can't change icons for tiles with live tile content as that'd make you loose Live Tile functionality, at least for now. So Schaps disabled those hubs/apps.
See my Icon thread.
You are great. Why did you open a thread especially about customize your WP7? You have so many threads around here. It could be very usefull.
Most of my work was for WM, I did a lot of work in CHome/Titanium. I was the one who found the GUID for custom plugins, which paved the way to all those plugins like ATContacts, Showaco's Weather Panel, etc, etc. Right now, I have only found 3 hacks/customizations. Maybe once I have more, Ill link it all. For now, people can just look at my profile to find my threads.

Hey everyone,
I managed to get the HTC hub tile without apps icons nor HTC logo,
I 'm now testing the live update as soon as I get results, I will give you feedbacks + some extra files.
Note that the 4 files replaced in isolated store folder ain't enough, there are few files that need to be replaced also.
I only used the Windows Mobile device manager software with its file Explorer tab( simple copy & paste)

Hope you can supply the completed xap? If not then will overwrite my own ones when you supply the files

Confirmed working with LIVE TILE
It's a simple copy paste procedure used only through "Windows Phone device center"
Very Simple but do it carefully to avoid deleting extra files.
Use the "read me.txt" file in the attachment to help in modification.
you MUST Unpin the HTC hub Tile from Homescreen before modification.

Hi guys,
there seems to be a limitation in W10M regarding the number of tile folders on the start screen. I tried it on different devices and could create 25 tile folders, but I need more... Creating the 26th always results just in a start screen reload before the has device recognized that a tile is put on top of another tile.
Is there I way to tweak it? I suppose the layout is stored in an XML file or in a database. I'd just try to edit this resource adding more folder elements.

The screenshot you point to explains TileColumnSize that is used to define how much tiles/tile folders are displayed in a row. But it isn't a problem. My problem is how to CREATE more than 25 tile FOLDERS on the start screen.

I don't know.
So folks, I pushed two tiles to the very top of the start screen and managed to create the 26th tile folder in this way.
But now a long-tap on every tile or group results into a start screen reload, so I'm unable to edit it at all...
I suppose it's a memory issue. Can plz someone verify it? All my devices have 1 GB RAM and stop at 25/26 tile groups.
I investigated the file system but found no traps of a file that controls the start screen layout.
There is system32\layouts\defaultLayouts.xml which is used for the initial setup after a hard reset.
And there's an interesting MSDN article about customizing the start screen layout via LayoutModification.xml:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/mt171093(v=vs.85).aspx
However it states that "Windows 10 Mobile only supports one Start group". So no chance to outsource the full configuration of the start screen to that file.
Now I'd like to export the phone's registry hoping to find the tile groups configuration there.
Is there a registry export tool? Interop Tools have a registry search but it doesn't search as assumed.

Pardon, but there is no such path. Spent some time to check different locations, couldn't find the registriy cache...
However I probably found the place where tile configuration is stored:
Phone\Data\Users\DefApps\APPDATA\LOCAL\TileDataLayer\Database
Can somebody plz verify it? I couldn't copy or open them.
A link (regarding W10 desktop) says: "Windows 10 Start screen or Start menu configuration are stored in a database file named vedatamodel.edb, which is always locked or in-use by the system when you’re logged on and can’t be copied." http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/backup-start-menu-layout-windows-10/
