registry editor?

Just a quick question: The Wiki has a number of tweaks for the registry. How do I edit the Registry on an 8125? Is there a Registry Editor on the PDA, or do I have to download one? Where can I get one?

yes you need to get one

if you plan on tweaking your phone at all, you should probably get one.No there isn't one on your device. I use total commander. It was part of the custom 2.26 rom I upgraded to. I have found it to be very useful. hope this helps

tutorial for Total Commander?
Does anyone know of a tutorial for using Total Commander? There are some things I want to do with it, but I don't know anything about this stuff.
Thanks

Resco Explorer with the Registry plugin > *.*

I've posted quite a lot tips on using Total Commander in the Registry Bible.
It's indeed a bit harder to use than alternate products. (I think you may also want to check out Resco Registry Editor because it's much easier to use.)

also if it is just registry editing PHM Regedit is pretty good.

Yup, PHM is great, but a bit restricted and, as far as multi-line strings are concerned, buggy.

i have found some sounds i like now i just need to kno how to put them in the folder for sliding sounds

heres a cab that i found in a transformers sliding sound forum. just install the cab and reset. then you can just copy whatever wav file into the windows directory that you want for the sliding sounds. you just have to name them custom-in and custom-out. its real easy and you dont have to touch the registry.

ok..and what about the default sounds? i tried the slidesound app.and it played the default sound and the one that i wanted

If someone could still help me find the reg edit folder or method of "changing my own oil". There is a little pride I get from plyaing around in the reg edit especially there is the element of risk when working in it.
Thanks for the help

you'll need a registry editor, like phm, total commander, or resco, before you can do anything at all

Hey, Do you have to use a Registry Editor in order to change the slider sound? Or is there another option? I would also like to know if anyone here could possibly walk me through the steps. Thank You

Merging registry?

I have PHM reg editor installed, but all I can do with it is restore a registry. What I want to do is merge a registry so the registry setting that are missing(not really sure which ones are) are added back and such. How can I do this? Thanks

anyone know? Please?

I'd try something like dotfred task manager for this...
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm

You can export that registry setting using PHM reg editor, copy to your pc and merge it into any.reg.

I think (although I'm not absolutely certain) that the op wants to import some registry settings, which (AFAIK) cannot be done easily with PHM RegEdit

Yes, I want to import reg settings(with out deleting the current ones on there) and PHM does not let me.

dotfred task manager has a registry import function. I'd backup before just to be safe though!

I tried it but it gave me an error and the missing registry files were not actually imported.

What are you trying to install, what registry settings?

If I knew what exact reg setting it was, I would have done it manually. I am trying to get back my predictive texting I lost after installing and uninstalling the Diamond keyboard. So I did a back of my device, did hard reset, then used PHM reg to save the whole default registry. I proceed installed the back up of my registy and then tried to merge the registry with the software mentioned and here we are now.

You need to find out which parts of the registries you want to merge. There simply isn't any piece of software with the intelligence to do that for you.
If you have both your default registry and your own custom registry in .reg format, put them on your PC and use UltraEdit or any similar editor with compare/diff functionality to spot the differences. Judge for yourself which of these are the ones you need. Put only these lines in a new .reg file with the correct header. Copy that to your device, run it, ready for test.
I believe all devices here use unicode, so don't use a .txt based editor.

well I think it maybe the whole hkey local machine I may have to merge or at least everything that does not have to do with installed apps and software.

Depends on which keyboard!
Search for "XT9" which does some of them.

then what next?

HTC HD 2 Registry

Anybody know how to access HTC HD2 registry?
I'm quite confused abt getting it done.
Use a registry editor and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Loader\LoadModuleLow
create new DWORD entry named ffmpeg.plg
assign to it value 1.
I dun quite understand how u do e registry editor on e phone? I can't seem to find.

You need a registry editor like e.g. Total Commander. I myself use Mobile Registry Editor, which you can use from your PC.
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-and-Shell/Windows/Mobile-Registry-Editor-10636.shtml

So that means after downloading the mobile registry editor I juz need to plug in my phone and make the necessary changes as in the instruction given?

Yep. Download it and you'll see how it works. It's pretty easy.
But always be careful when editing the registry, I'd suggest you write down the original values.

Thanks Bro. Appreciate your help.
I juz tried and it say access denied

You could try again. I get this error from time to time, but the next time I tried it did work.
Otherwise you could try Total Commander or RegEdit or any of the other registry editors that are available. They work from your phone. Don't know exactly which ones are free. Search this forum and Google and you will find.

Does it show all the directory or it will only show certain directory only?
Cause i'm not able to find HKLM\Software\Opera\Info

http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml
The one I use and I have never had any problems with it. Plus, you don`t need a PC in order to use it.

Is there a more friendly Finger registry editor than PHM Registry Editor v0.70
