I applied most of the registry edits I found on this site and they work wonderfully. I was wondering if I missed one that edits the default location of WMP 10 Mobiles Library... option (from the Menu). I would like to point to my \Storage Card instead of where it currently points.
Also, is there a registry editor similar to regedit or regedt32 for Windows non-Mobile that will let you search for items?
Thanks!

Anyone use a registry Editor for Universal? What is the best one out there?
I personally use Resco File Explorer, hit two (well technically three) things on the head with one program
excellent program, superb file explorer, with built in ftp and registry editor.
*edit* need sleep, corrected typo
Yer i find resco the triple whammy aswell
A simple Google search would reveal some excellent freeware alternatives to Resco, or you could even search these forums. :roll:
As your starter for ten, try searching for "TRE registry editor" or "PHM regedit". Both of those are free and work perfectly for me on my Exec.
Hi all
I have used Mehayuk's brill guide to setting up the wizard http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=53784&highlight=mda+vario
and have completed the following reg tweak
Turn On GPS Application (GPS not GPRS ie Navigation Stuff)
First of all, your MDA does NOT have GPS built-in; let's make that clear from the start.
However, Windows Mobile 5.0 includes a GPS Control Panel for ease of configuring Bluetooth GPS devices. This includes creating 'virtual ports' so that multiple programs can access the same NEMA GPS stream from said BT/GPS device. This is helpful for anyone who uses GPS for Navigation, War-Driving and lots of new emerging location-based programs which use GPS information available to your MDA.
Unfortunately, the Registry Wizard for tweaking the MDA available in this FAQ and over at xda-developers does not work with the T-Mobile ROMs. You have to manually edit the registry by following these instructions:
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2"
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings
But i cant find the GPS panel anywhere can anyone help me out there.
:twisted:
Also I have used Resco explorer to find the folder on my network containing my music files, so i can stream them to my wizard and play them using TCMP player, i can see the files in the folder but how do i get TCMP to play them,
Instructions for a idiot who is a bit slow please :shock: :shock:
My wizard details are
ROM 2.21.2.6 WWE
ROM Date 3/906
Radio Version 02.19.11
ExtROM 2.21.2.109
Many registry hacks require a soft reset... Just turn your device off and then back on.
I think the above reg hack is pre-aku2
The correct one is Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings DWORD "hide" change value from 1 to 0
and it will appear under settings\system not settings\connections
btw works on mine but i have no gps device - so fat lot of good it does me except the pleasure of a hack
There's also the redirect key which must be deleted.
Done the GPS Hack
Any help with TCMP Settings
I don't know about RescoExplorer, I use GSFinder which can also access network shares. So, when I want to listen to music files from my PC with TCMP I just launch TCMP -> File -> Open File and I just Open the Network Folder and select the song(s) I want to listen to. No special settings!
hmm, thats an interesting thing but....
my bluetooth gps works fine with multiple programs anyway, can use tomtom and wififofum both at once without enabling this gps hack. Maybe that why its hidden by default?
As we all know, a registry editor is pretty important when modding our devices. I personally hate doing registry edits on my wizard and it JUST SO HAPPENS that today while searching for a new registry editor (i lost my wizard in toronto a week ago and didnt have any software for it anymore!) i found one that works wonders and is based from a PC instead of the PPC. seems to work well for me. check it out! it is attached and it is freeware. it seems to work great with WM6 so i would say its safe to assume it will work with at the very least 5 also if not older versions of WM.
just thought id give back to the community since i have used this resource time and time again!
Total Commader and Task Manager, which come with many custom ROMs, already contained a full-featured registry editor with import/export functions, so why install another one?
this is not based from the PPC if you read my post. its much easier to navigate via your pc as i mentioned in my post.
Just use mymobiler. You can do EVERYTHING on your mobile from your desktop with that program. Then TotalCommander or another program can retain their value as multifunction programs capable of file management, text file editing, and registry editing.

personally as a geek myself, if there is an app that removes the actual interaction of the PPC and moves it into a native windows app id much rather use that. the problem with this app is it still mimics the physical interaction of the PPC. something the registry editor i posted above isnt doing. its mimicking regedit in windows but accesses your PPC.
just to prove my point here are two pics of examples.
Guys I know it was posted somewhere on here that you could create a shortcut to the default windows registry editor but I can't seem to find what directory it is in? I have searched and can't find any threads that detail this and can't find it in the windows or system directories (yes I am showing all files).
Any help would be appreciated.

As far as I am aware there is no 'built in' registry editor in windows mobile. There is one in desktop versions of windows like xp etc. There are plenty of free alternatives if you search around.
I am sure there was one on windows mobile or one that was free at least. There was a trial version of the resco explorer package that came with a registry editor but that was time bombed I believe (or was that just for the file explorer.exe)?
Any help on any free reg edit tools if the windows one isn't available?
by far the easiest and best way to edit the reg when at home is ceregistry editor which runs on the pc.
for free ones on the phone itself, people usually go for total commander.
Hi folks, I now recall which one I used (PHMregistry editor). So thanks for everyones comments. I like the thought of editing the registry from the PC so will give that a go also.
Once again many thanks.
Can somebody please help me with Registry Editor? I am using Romeos 1.9a and I need to add certain files in to the Windows folder using a Registry Editor. I have tried to use the included Total Commander registry editor but I am getting stuck as I do not see any option to import the DLLs I need or even to paste them manually
I am basically looking for a solution to be able to stream live tv programmes using winmo side which is a new service introduced by my service provider using 3G. I have downloaded and installed the HTC Streaming Media Cab but I also need to add some DLLs associated with the cab to be able to launch the streaming app. I simply do not know how to add the DLLs to the Windows folder using Registry Editor. The procedure and materials needed are explained in a different forum. See Post # 90 by Shahad.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=288857&page=9
This is of course for a different device but I believe similar steps should work with a liberated Shift as this is HTC's own streaming media app.
Somebody please help.....
Nevermind, will answer my own query. I managed to add the files using Total Commander Desktop together with Total Commander CE Plugin. But this adding the files caused the system to be unstable I had to re-install winmo. So this does not work. Just thought of posting this in case somebody reads the post and tries to get HTC Streaming Media app to work with the Shift.....
Closed as solved
