I think it would be very beneficial to this forum to develop a definitive list of Registry edits known to achieve connection for various vehicles. I have a Volvo XC60 and have after considerable effort finally achieved regular automatic connection and everything working other than Own Ringtones. Once I've conquered Ringtones too and have a definitive set of reg edits, I will post those here for the benifit other Volvo users. (Or can any other XC60 drivers already do so?) I would like to propose that drivers of other vehicles do the same for theirs, creating here a list of definitive Registry edits for different vehicles.
Following will work for all Volvos:
.Navigate to HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\
Click "Values" soft-key
Change "00001001" value to 1 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 2)
Change "00001005" value to 40 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 16)
Reboot device.
2. Modify the HandsFree plug-in:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree
i. Change SupportedFeatures to 1085 (default is 1135)
ii. Add value HFBDA binary, set to same value as LastConnectedBda
iii. Add value HFDeviceType decimal 2
3. Modify the WIDCOMM bluetooth general settings:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\General
i. Change bdaddr to (no value)
ii. Change DisableReopenAudio to 0 (default is 1)
4. Reboot device
I tried this with HD2 & XC-60 but system sounds doesn't work. All others working just fine. System sounds would be fine because of GarminXt.
I concur. I've been experimenting with my HTC TP2 & XC60 for some time now and the best I can achieve is 100% functioning calls in and out with standard ringing tone. I can't get own ringtones, stored address book or 10 last dialled/received calls. Such a shame.
Find a registry editor and edit these keys to increse the font on the menus and fonts in the menu bars.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\BarFnt\Ht\change DWORD VALUE TOO 1200
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\Popfnt\Ht\change DWORD VALUE TOO 1200
More edits to come.

By using this app you can change settings, which can not be changed normally. A few I would like to explain here. I am not responsible for anything! Use at your own risk!
If you know more settings, you can share it with the other users here.
You can only change settings in the tab "System", as long as the app doesn't have the permission for this. Without root you need to use adb to grant this permission.
I recommend that the phone should be restarted when changes have been made since not all changes are updated directly.
If you don't have the setting you can add it by pressing "+ Add new setting".
Setting: hide_virtual_key
Value: 1 enables it, 0 disables it
What does this setting do: This setting adds a button to the navigation bar, which hides it. You can then make it visible again by moving your finger upwards from the bottom of the screen.
Setting: multiwindow_mode_settings
Value: 1 enables it, 0 disables it
What does this setting do: It toggles the MultiWindow function on/off.
Setting: hw_not_display_week
Value: false enables it, true disables it
What does this setting do: Toggles visibility of week day on the icon of the calender app.
Setting: app_name_two_lines
Value: true enables it, false disables it
What does this setting do: Toggles whether app names should be truncated in the launcher or if they can take two lines.
If you can't enable network speed informations in status bar this might help:
Setting: show_network_speed_enabled
Value: -1 hides it in settings, 0 disables it, 1 enables it
Information: Seems to be completly broken/disabled/removed in B420/B421.
Is there any reg key I could enter to fix it? Changing color profiles currently doesn't do anything. Could someone post registry values of Color profile on other phone models, ie. 950 etc. Thnx!
I don't post questions often but any help would be appreciated. I've searched up and down the web to no avail. This line of questioning is in regards to my Lumia 435. I've abandoned Lumias in favor of my 2nd favorite brand, Motorola. But, I have an undying love for Windows phones. I'm a night guard so I walk around with a Moto G5 Plus, a Moto E4 and a Lumia 435. I am fond of the compact size and the screen's reflectivity isn't a problem since I only use it at night on my graveyard shift. It's sitting pretty in a case with an oleophobic glass screen protector and a 1 GB Paging File, thanks to interop.
I'm running W10M and it runs great because I disable ALL background apps, except for the Store or Podcasts. However, either the one I picked up from eBay has broken lights on it's 3 capacitive buttons or they just don't light up by design. My phone is Interop unlocked. I checked HKLM / Software / Microsoft / Shell / NavigationBar to see if I might be able to enable the on screen soft buttons and/or disable the 3 capactive buttons on the bezel. No joy. It seems that maybe this would be possible with Denim but the NavigationBar key has a list of all the different resolutions, each with 6 different settings.
Long story short, has anyone figured out how to enable/disable the soft buttons? And does anyone have a list of known working W10M registry tweaks? I've looked at WPTweaker but the XAP doesn't seem to install on my device (figured it was WP8 only). Would it be possible to trick this device into thinking it is a Lumia 640 so that the aspect ratio stays the same, and the soft buttons would swipe up from the bottom of the screen? I can't find any other WP that runs W10M that has a resolution of 800x480.
Thanks everyone for even just checking out this question. I'll appreciate any responses.

you can install WPTweaker XAP without problem deploying xap from computer to phone. if you have problem, try this Interop Tools, and enable "All XAP's are SL 8.1 XAPs" in Tweaks
The keys you need are:
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: SoftwareModeEnabled
Value: 1
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: IsSwipeUpToHideEnabled
Value: 1
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: IsDoubleTapOffEnabled
Value: 1
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: IsAutoHideEnabled
Value: 1
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: IsHintEnabled
Value: 1
Type: Integer DWORD
Key name: IsUserManaged
Value: 1

I wouldn't force the device... the resolution 800x480 works perfect since you can cast/screen mirror and doesn't force the cpu. Lumia 550 has 1280x720 and the same cpu, when you screen mirror to smart tvs or screens, the video and all, except photos is very laggy and that doesn't happen with 800x480 resolution. The only way to hide the bar is increasing the resolution, that can be done with registry but i don't recommend it because you have to change several keys(for X and Y) that has the same name, the device will look horrible because it has the .dll graphics for 800x480(for example UIXMobileAssets480x800.dll) so if you increase the resolution it will look like **** and also, you will be forcing the cpu. The only way to achieve it is changing the registry keys of the resolution and replacing the .dll graphics file with the correct .dll graphics file(meaning you need a .dll from the desired resolution). Maybe there's another way, i remember that some videoplayback apps did hide the bar when playing so maybe there's another way... a key missing or some value to change...

Yeah there doesn't seem to be any way to add those keys to the registry on W10M. I'll just have to deal with the capacitive hardware buttons from now.
PS. The Lumia 435 is surprisingly capable so long as you disable background apps. The first thing I did was bump the page file to 1GB and by not allowing any apps to run in the background it performs just as well as my Lumia 640 did. I like keeping the little Lumia handy as a spare phone in my duty pouch and it doesn't take up much space. Thanks for trying to help anyway.

You need interop tools to add the keys
