Mui Editor - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi, i have one question. I will must translate some english MUI file to Hungary.
But i don't find any program (MUI editor.) I tested some program, like Resource Editor, Resource Tuner, but edited MUI was bad.
Do you now what the correct program for edit MUI?
thnx

Resource Editor works, just make sure you unsign the dll before editing, and resign it again for use
Search for unsigner and msigner here on the forums

thnx for idea

CeRegEditor NEW ver 0.0.5.2, with regular expressions

Hello,
I'd like to introduce new registry editor CeRegEditor for WindowsCE, WindowsMobile
It works on desktop PC but operates on PDA's registry.
Main features:
- keys/values create and edit
- fast search
- export/import keys to/from REG file
- create "image" registry with compare and restore service
- free for private and commercial use
- registry compare to CAB or REG files
- open REG/RGU, CAB, HV as regular registry, with all edit functions available
...and many more
link to web site: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl?lang=en
link to software: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ceregedit_setup.exe
It is still during test period, but basic features are well tested and stable
It is Polish software but with english interface
edit
If You find any error in the application or mistake in English interface please send an email to [email protected] or write it within thread
nice one! thanks!
It looks very nice! thanks
Hi!
Thanks a lot! The compare service makes it even easier to build OEM packages when kooking ROMs. Great software!
Regards,
PK
nice app.
good tool, many of cookers want to edit the registries using the PC
Nice software I have one suggestion: since this works on the desktop, one feature that would be neet was that if we install a CAB, it detects what's changed on the PPC, regarding the registry. That would be great to know what are the registry keys needed for the instalation of OEM packages!

You can use compare tool embedded into CeRegEditor.
First, create registry image(Images->Create image or F2 key) and after cab instalation perform compare registry, Images->Compare registry. It will show only differences/changes between the image and the current registry
I hope this will be useful for You
Great Work
Great work, sounds cool...thanks !
Yes, very thanks so much!
NIce Progie thanx
New version 0.0.2.2
+ added UNICODE support for export/import data to/from REG file
+ fixed header in REG file. The string in header changed to REGEDIT4. Previous string was not compatible with some other registry tools (WinCE Cab Manager)
+ fixed format of path to directory/file in REG file.
...and some minor fixes
Thank you, I was using Mobile Registry Editor to edit registry directly from Desktop but your app look nice
New version 0.0.3.0 available
Some fixes and new features!
Now, compare tool handles CAB and REG files
So, it is possible to compare registry to CAB file or REG file, CAB to CAB, CAB to REG, REG to registry image, etc.
It's possible to check what changes will be made by CAB before CAB instalation
Update details: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/index.php?id=4&lang=en
Download: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ceregedit_setup.exe
cool... I will check this out soon.
@mdziedzic, curious how you are implementig the cab compare function... are you just looking at reg entries stored in the cab? Cos sometimes the complicated ones involve self-registering dlls and setup.dll files that make reg entries also. Prime examples of this are voice command, mark all as read, and some SPB apps. For those we always have to do a reg diff before/after cab install to see what the setup.dll did (or see the self-registered dll additions).
I have been wondering if it's possible to write an app that examines a setup.dll to see what reg entries it would create. So far I don't know of any way to do that other than reg dump->install cab->reg dump->compare.
Anyway your app will be very useful! Thanks for your hard work.
congratz.

I think it is not possible! Each developer/provider creates it's individual setup.dll for CABs. Each DLL could has different structure (written in C++ or Pascal). Trying to "decode" setup.dll will be always "guessig"!

IMO, for CABs with setup.dll or exe instalators it's the best metod. In CeRegEditor, just create registry image (F2)-> do instalations-> compare registry with image(F3). After compare You can save differences to REG file

Great
New version 0.0.3.1 available

Updates:
- fix in CAB-> REG conversion
great looking ap...
I particularly like the little status monitor...nice touch.
It would be great if you could also map registry files from a dumped rom. This way you could easily extract registry settings from other phones without the need of the actual device. At this moment you still need the phone.
is this possible

Ive got a question about using ResHacker...what file format do the icons have to be in? Ive got them in .ico also I am trying to put a icon to an application that doesnt currently have one do you know how I can do this in Res Hacker
In SKtools: I'm having problems with the icon format as well...any idea what format its looking for?
I guess I spoke to soon about them running perfect
How to
In ResHacker open file u want to change the icon of, then hit the action button, and then replace icon. However, with some .exe or .dll files u cannot change there icons.
any help on this one. I have shortcut creator and for some reason when i point it to the Lnk file then to the ico file it just makes a duplicate and renames the old .bak. the icons don't change?
I tried the sk iconmaker and it won't show any of my ico files in the folder.
how can you change icons?
Well, You could do it manually. To change the icon of all shortcuts download a registry editor (PHM RegEdit is free and great), Then goto HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\inkfile\defaulticon.Edit the string value "default" to the path to the icon you whant all shortcuts to have. The path must lead to a exe, dll or ico file.

Concerning icons I like to add this thread

Changing icons

I know alot of chefs have there own icon sets for thing like the program menus and setting and things. I also no that the settings for these are linked by an "icon.lnk" file to a dll file in the windows directory. I need help trying to edit these icon's, Whether it is through the dll file or there is another round about way.
A play by play would be great, thanks in advanced.
(i have already tried editing through a dll editor and connot seem to find a program that doesn't have an error trying to edit it (everything from wordpad to Resourse explorer to pe editor.)
you can use icon changer http://www.shelllabs.com/
pull the exe file off your device. then load it into icon changer. change the icon then put it back on your device overwriting the old one. this will change the physical icon of that program.
i have used it several times and it works great.

Hello,
See my signature. Just edit the icon.dll with XN Resource Editor. Open icon.lnk with notepad and just give the icon number.

You can edit a DLL with reasourse hacker. You just need the UNSIGNER, and MSSIGNER. first you unsign, then you edit and save, then you sign.
simpler than you think. the hard part is looking for graphics

I've gotten into the file using a resourse hacker, but how do i sign and unsign?
I don't seem it as an option in any of the menu's so either i'm using the wrong program or i just don't know what i'm doing at all
Edit: and i have already created my icons by hand..... i've got graphics down easy i just have never worked with a dll before..... usually just skinning apps

Editing XML files

They cannot really be edited. They have to be complied with the program.
You can hex edit them but good luck with that.
Lookup a tool called apktool that will decompile the apk and you can edit it with smali and the xml's but a lot of the HTC files cannot be decompiled yet.
AXMLPrinter2.jar to read the .xmls and you need a Hex Editor to hex edit the .xmls.
Mods, please move to the General forum. This doesnt belong in Development.

they really help. while in android u have to edit an xml in binary format. use HxD editor to edit them but the two files i posted with allow u to convert it easily to readable xml and then find the hex strings to look for and then be able to go to binary and search for the hex string. just remember the code is in reverse when u search for it. for example u might see 01 02 03 04 in readable format (dont know what color this is its just an example) when u search for it in binary xml u would search for 04 03 02 01. hope that helps

You don't. As people said above, apktool gives you opportunity to edit XMLs normally - as if application was yours. So please don't mislead other people

i was under the impression that you have to hex edit the xml's by use of an xml editor. thats how i was shown and that was by VinceOB. Who in my opinion one of the more experienced coders on this forum.

[UDL] Make NotePad++ MortScript ready

Created an user defined language (UDL) for NotePad++, my favorite editor, thus MortScript-scripts are synthax conformally shown. Uploaded the UDL here. Enjoy.

Does your version will be better ?

I had found two files for use with MortScript in Notepad++ and tweaked them a little for myself. One goes in the Notepad++ folder and is the user defined language file. The other goes in Notepad++\plugins\APIs and is the function and description file.

Code dictionaries
Hiyas.
btw, I did previously post a Notepad++ dictionary from Sir.John in the Mortscript Source Compendium.
I will update with a link back to your thread also.
Link broken - file not found
Thanks for taking the time to do this, and so many of your other projects
Any chance you can re-post the UDL for Mortscript again?
Cheers from Australia
