I've managed to use the Extended_Rom and Config to restore an XDAII after hard reset.
Problem is that I need to add a registry entry for a control (from the config file)
I used the How to Make the extended ROM visible on your HTC Himalaya .cab

can anyone explain how i would do something similar (simply?)
thanks
Hi I am Looking for help using WinCE cab Manager
Q) I am trying to create a cab file for the GPS Patch on WM5 by using the Regestry editor part of WCE Cabman but i can't work out how to get this software to remove the Value Redirect to allow the Dword Group=2 to be activated.
You should ask the author of WinCE CAB Manager.
Cabs cannot delete a registry key... they can only modify it or overwrite it... There is a way however... Look up the patches in extended ROM... they do it by a way of using a custom DLL and an XML file in which you can specify what directory/registry to delete...
Please explain a little more, What Patches to look at?
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.
I can't modify my sym.txt file as it is in ROM and read only. I just installed a WWE WM6 rom and have a UK keypad layout in my Wizard and getting the wrong symbols is annoying. Anyone got a solution?
Download and use Total Commander to modify files and the registery. Use search and "keyboard layout" for more information. Here is one link about this issue:

I found it, thanks for the help. I complately forgot about that registry setting.
Hey there,
Does anyone know how to make a registry file so that I can easily change settings in the registry by just executing it?
For example, I have 4 different registry edits that I do if I need to do a hard reset and it is a pain in the ass to do them everytime. I want it so that i have 4 different reg files that i can execute that will help me edit them.
Is this possible?
Thanks
