My question of the day.
How does one examine an exe/dll to see what registry items it uses? Is there a tool that can parse them out?
There is a registry monitoring tool (commercial). ZeBoxx used to use it, but I haven't seen him for a while.

You have to speak to the author about getting a WM5 compatible version I think. Let me know if you do.
Otherwise, you use IDA to disassemble it

I use a program called ResHacker.
I haven't got a link, you'll have to Google it.
Oh, forgot to mention that: Of course, it's likely the strings are stored in the exe as ascii or unicode, so you could just use a hexediter or string dumper to do the same. Cheaper then buying IDA!

Hi Vj,
In wm2003se, it was possible to inject a dll in another process and so hacking it. But in wm2005, even if the api that allows to do that is still there, it doesn't work anymore maybe for security reasons...
So I think that's why none of the tools that use this trick have been updated to wm2k5.
So as you said, disassembling is the best option we have...
Cheers,
.Fred
.Fred, the registry monitoring tool has been made comptabile with wm5, Zeboxx used it in analysing the basehue information (VJBaseHue). However, he had to speak to the author to get it aparantly. I can't confirm, just reporting what I was told.

This is great news, I wonder how he did it. Is it possible to get the wm5 version, to see what/how he does?
Thanks,
.Fred
Unfortunately, I never got speak to ZeBoxx in detail about, and I haven't seen him on the board for months. He took his sabatical at the same time as me!
Try contacting the author of the app to see if it's true... I'll be interested in buying it if it is available.

Does anyone know if this can be done on the XDA II?
One of the third party software that I used for this purpose is MTUX RintoneX. Have a look at www.mtux.com
Like Chriswo I too use RingToneX to add that missing feature of user assignable ringtones to my XDA II. It's isn't freeware but it does work well and is easy to use.
Any sign of a freeware application to do this simple task alone anyone?
RinTonex
Dear Criswo and Ednap,
to use RinTonex did had to unistall the IA software or can you get the picture from the IA SW and the ring from RinTonex?
Thanks!
Chris
P.S.: also, have you tried other appications for this purpouse? Why do you think that RinTonex is better than the other available...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=522&highlight=
IA Caller ID doesn't need to be uninstall. RingtoneX can work on top of IA Caller ID after all, one sees the numbers and find the matching PHOTO, and the other sees the number and find the matching Ringtone. They can work together.
THANK YOU!!!
WOW!
This is what I wanted to hear!!! :lol:
I wasn't sure both SWs could see the caller at the same time!
I undestanding you have used this combination and it worked! :wink:
Thanks!
Chris
Exactly like chriswo says, they can work side by side and all OK
does ne 1 have the serial for ringtonex ???

plz don't post keygens & hacks on this forum.
There are other places for them, and nobody wants to risk the closing of this one.
Time and Place for everything. I am sure we all might know places to get keygens and hacks for various needs.
However, this forum is NOT the place for it. There are other places to post that.
A moderator should remove the postings as soon as possible.
There is no other place even remotely like XDA-Developers. To get it shut down because somebody has no class would be really pathetic.
Give Phonext a try, it is free and does what the OP wants: assign a ringtone to a contact. You'll find it here:

Although the website states it is for PPC2002 it runs on WM2003 on my MDA I.

Ok, sorry
Phonext on my SX56
I can't run the "SetupPhonExt_PPC2002.exe" on my XDA. is it because its the ATT version? I unlocked it by switching to PPC2002 w/ the unlock in the ROm, then reflashing w/ WM2003. I copied the file over, and it can't install. Is there something i'm missing? It says it is not a valid application.
Can anyone here hack the SMS plus for the O2 mini?
60 view's n not one person who can hack this..umm is this impossible to hack??
Why should anyone bother to hack this? What does it better than the normal SMS writing app?
Nash. I think this app has already been cracked, a few weeks ago.
Given that it's a WM5 app, it might never work on WM2003.
Either way, it might be worth paying attention to this post:

VJ i know it has been cracked a month back..but i just cudnt get it to work on my Mini..so i just thought it wud be nice if someone can hack it for the Magician..Why are most of u guys so rude?
Nash: That's a good question... Anyone else want to respond on that one?
Hacking an app to run on it's own system, WM5, is not impossible. However, decompiling and subsequently recompiling an app to work on a different OS that it's been compiled for (ie WM2003, not WM5) would be extremely difficult. I'll leave that to someone with more experience then me to detail.
However, as I said in my previous message, "it might never work on WM2003".

Thanks V..i guess it just might not happen

Hi, I've been searching this forum for hours and still can't seem to find the hacked version of 02 sms plus. Could somebody kindly post either the link or the file here? I am quite desparate to use this and have spent most of my night looking for it.
I might be blind to not have seen it so please indulge me.
Cheers in advance!
Please if any of the rocket scientists on this forum know of some way to change that 'simon says' looking wait animation for wm5 then let us know.
I cant stand the way MS makes their interfaces look like a frikkin Fisher Price gadget and each time that thing loads and makes me watch it cycle red, green, blue, yellow the more angered I get.
:shock: :shock: :shock:
Never gave this much thought, but if it bothers you that much:
1) Get a coreres.dll.0409.mui file. (should be in any good ROM dump, or use TestWM5.exe by mamiac)
2) Change the bitmaps using ResourceHaker or any other res editor.
3)Check Asukal's posts for how to re-sign the file, then put it in windows directory.
Good luck.
This is the thread on changing for WM2003. The info might be helpful.

though i'd take that over the spinning thing too...
I loved the little hamster!
Although a few frames of VirtualGirl might not go amiss!

lol, indeed sir, indeed.
so...anyone want to try this on WM5? I know it should work but still....
Very cute idea, I will try this my self soon with a custom graphics.
Just one problem I am not anxious to combat:
In WM5 system MUI's will not load without a signature. This means creating a certificate, provisioning device then signing DLL. I know it can be done, but still, a lot of extra hassle.
Exactly. I don't think it worked when I tried it way back when, but I don't think I signed it...

Hi.
I want to use the today plugins off the v1640 ROM but on a QTEK ROM - does anyone know which files I need off the Voda ROM to get it working on the QTEK one?
I've had a look but can't spot anything.
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Look at the ext-ROM of this ... ... v1640 ROM and determine (smart guessing) the CAB files that is responsible for the plugin. just copy this over to your phone and install it.
Tried that and not had any success yet - anyone else know?
Just for more info - I've run every single file in the extended_rom of the v1640 on a qtek ROM and these haven't been added.
So the question now is, what kind of files am I looking for in the base rom and how do i register them to appear in the list of possible plugins?
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Just in case anyone is interested, I managed to work out what files and registry entries were needed to get these working on other ROMs.
It would be handy actually to be able to put these in a cab file - are there any idiot's guides for doing this?
In the meantime, if anyone else wants to know, reply to this or PM me
You just list the registry stuff here and the necessary files, someone (or I, if I have the time) to cook up a CAB for you.
BTW, good if you can include a screen shot of this wonderful plugin, to get attention
Sorry, can't do that - the techy in me won't allow me to let someone else do it for me Just give me a name of some software and i'll go and work out the rest ;-)
If it takes me too long, I might give it up though and post 'em ;-)
Ta,
Smiffy.
Could you please post a screenshot of that Today plug-in ? I'm a bit curious as I, for many reasons, switched my SFR/Vodaphone v1640 straight to WWE ROMs when I got ahold of it and I didn't think I might have missed something actually good.
Thanks !
Let's just remember that I never said it was good, just something I wanted in case you're all completely under-whelmed
It's just different plugins for messages and calendat entries and they're icons...maybe I just wanted to be different
Here ya go
And just so you know, despite the plugins and wallpaper, this is the QTEK rom

No, you're right, it's actually quite cool... Even though I'm not sure I'd see much of these icons in TrueVGA...
Thanks for the screen-shot. I wouldn't mind if you posted your manipulations here, too.

Any utilities to remove Opera?
I hate Opera (prefer IE over anything) and dont want it on my HD.
Surely, there must be some uninstall (or do you just need to delete it's directory under Windows dir)?
Thanks,
Rob
I've noticed that the wiki could do with a bit of updating. I've added SPB Backup which is useful. Hopefully others will start to add more and help update it!
