backup for registry? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

I still have this pesky 'notification error' from some TomTom hangover. I think I know where it is in the registry, but I'd like to be able to backup and restore just the registry rather than everything before attempting to delete the particular registry entry. Is there a way of doing this?

Have a look at PHM Registry Editor here.
Version 0.70 supports Backup and Restore of the registry

Destroying the registry so a given functionality dies, is not the same as enabling/disabling. I doubt these programs have simple on/off switches in the registry, so instead I suggest you reinstall them.
Set a browser such as the Resco Explorer to show files in ROM, then locate and execute the file loadvdisk.exe in the Windows folder. This will give you access to the Extended_ROM folder, located in root. From there you can reinstall what you want. Names of the files you will need are selfexplanatory, the rest you can find a description on here on forum, by using the search function.

Resco registration info - where?

Pls, help. I'm trying to prepare custom CABs with all my personal settings. I cann't find the place Resco Explorer stores registration information.
After registration only one registry value is changed: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TCPEmail: REEntry, but it is not enough to restore this one. No one of explorer's file is modified. There is no one new file, also [or I cann't find them].
Have you an idea, how can I reinstall Resco Explorer and its registration info?
Might be in one of the databases. Try backing them up and restoring afterwards.

Might be. But PHM Power Toys [remote PC - too] tells me, that there is only one database = "MSN Contacts". Probacly no.
nah, many more than that.
but it could be an entry anywhere. That's where I'd put it!

How to find them or how to backup them? I'm running WM5

Strange registry thing

Hi there,
I'm curious to know if anyone else has encountered this. I'm trying to delete a certain key from the registry (the WLan key). I am doing it by way of a C++ program (using the VORegistry classes, highly recommended). I am able to delete the Subkeys from the main WLan key, but when I try to delete the WLan key I am unable to. Iam able to manually delete this key via way of a registry editor, but it seems to be prevented by way of an exe? Is the deletion of some keys in some way blocked or prohibited?
Thanks for any insights.
Best Regards,
Dav
Hi dav!
If you can delete it via registry editor, it can't be locked. (after all reg. editor is just another exe).
I am not familiar with the VORegistry class, but have you tried simply using the win32 API?
There is a simple function RegDeleteKey. You should look up API's beginning with Reg on MSDN for complete description of this and other registry functions.
Good luck!

Can't write to Windows or save Registry Changes

Hi All,
I'm trying to make some registry changes on the Mogul and when I save the changes all is ok until I soft boot and then they go back to their default values. How can I prevent this?
I am also trying to save a file in the \Windows directory and it's giving me an access is denied message, how do I unlock this directory?
Thanks,
X2K
Which registry editor are you using?
Try using Resco explorer and registry editor pluggin:

I hope it helps.
I'm using PHM Regedit
Which registry key(s) are you trying to edit? Some keys don't get saved or get reset no matter what upon reboot.
Try this:
In [HKLM\System\ObjectStore] is a reg key "RegistryType=1", which means Hive based registry.
When you set it to "RegistryType=0", which means FILE based registry, all changes you do in the registry will stay there also if you reboot with device's reset button...
BUT AFTER YOU CHANGE THIS VALUE, FIRST REBOOT HAS TO BE DONE WITH SOME SOFTWARE, NOT WITH THE RESET BUTTON.
Subsequent reboots can be done with reset button then.

Great tip, even after a year since you posted it . Couldn't get rid of the default t-mobile -MDA Vario III aka kaiser- settings (PIE homepage e.g.), but you helped me out on this one
Hello all. I have tried to make the registry change (In [HKLM\System\ObjectStore] "RegistryType=1") to "RegistryType=0" mentioned above. That worked fine but I still can't save a change I'm trying to make. I bought MS Voice Command and was told to change the [HKLM\Software\OEM\Voicecommand path to \Program Files\MS Voice Command\voicecmd.exe. I can't seem to save the change. I have used several different registry editors including PHM, Resco and CeRegEditor. The displayed path (\Windows\SDDialer.exe) will not update. I'm using a Verizon XV6800 with WM 6.1 and the Verizon MR-1 update. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Help needed with some registry entries

Ok I tried to re arrange the icons on the start screen in the registry and yes I did do a backup.
Unfortunately after making a mess of it I tried to restore my backup and the damn thing will not take it. Not sure if the file was corrupt or what.
I fixed most of it but I am looking for the registry entries for the following area
hklm\software\htc\manila\programlauncher
There are folders 0 through 31 that have the info I need. Anyone that could package that up so that I can put myself back together I would appreciate it.
Also any recommendations on a good registry editor with backup :-/
