For the longest time I've tried to get the information where Resco stores the registration codes in the Registry but never been able to find it. Contacted Resco and never received an answer.
In other words I've bought their product and have the code. But I dont want to enter it everytime I install a new Rom. I want to back up the registry setting without backing up the whole registry since ill be installing it over newer roms..
I've sucessfull found and backed up the keys for thumbcal and SPB Shell and TV. (just searched in the registry for my code and backed up those keys)
But Resco cant seem to work. Does anyone have any clue where those keys would be located under?
Thank you .

I'm not sure what Resco software you're using, however, for Resco Explorer the registration information is in the file \Windows\wmtrigger.dat. I can only guess that other Resco registration information may also be in that file. I restore that file after every flash and have never had to enter my registration information in Resco Explorer after doing so.
Settings for Resco Explorer and Registry Editor are stored in the registry in several keys all within the
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Resco] branch.
Hope that helps -
Thanks.
That did the trick

after you payment is successful, resco retailer will sent a email to you, it contains registry ID and password
remember, registry ID must matches to your phone ID
you can change phone ID by edit "my contact card" in contact list
i asked the same question a while ago at the resco forum and they developers said they can't release that info so they're apps aren't easily cracked/key'd/hacked etc... after searching like a mad man all over the registry, i couldn't find it so thanks adoute for pointing out \Windows\wmtrigger.dat!

Sorry for such a newbie question - but which app is everyone using to access the registry?
Many thanks
Chris
Total Commander http://www.ghisler.com/ce.htm is freeware and works a treat.
Thanks!
Chris
p.s. is there an app which can be run from a pc to do this (i.e. over the usb connection to the wizard)?
Hmmm, i tried Total Commander on my new O2 Mini S (WM5, English IMate ROM) and couldn't get it to work. is anyone else having this problem? anyone know of another reg editor that works on my device?
Thanks.

I don't know of any software for editing the registry via USB connection, sorry.
wubaguba
Did you use the tcmdpocketarm download from http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm for install from the device?
HTH
wuba.. could you tell us exactly what part of it isn't working ?
I've got it installed - and it works fine.
If you want to edit the registry, go to the "\\" dir, then enter the registry.
I don't use it for editing the registry, though - it's not really well-suited for that. I do use it for *searching* the registry, however - as it's just VERY fast at that (it'll find all hits and display them in a list on the screen).
For the actual editing, I use PHM Regedit - it's free
http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx
Try this one - it is based on the PC and works across the USB
Thanks, flashgordonv, I had found the Mobile Registry Editor site but the user comments seem to suggest that it doesn't support WM5. Have you used it on a WM5 device?
Chris
i use PHM registry editor, and am happy with that.
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/pocketpc/phmregistry.html
Sure....I could not go back up the directory structure when trying to locate a file. that was the main issue but there were other minor annoyances like not being able to see the bottom of the screen after my windows keyboard popped up. the version i tried was this one...
http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.exe
Btw...i couldn't get to the PHM editor via the prior link but this one worked...
http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml
Sorry, can I ask the dumb question about which of the many cab files it produces I should copy onto my Qtek9100?
Just to confirm mobile registry editor works fine. I recreated my comms manager entry with it yesterday.

Most registry editors are compatible with WM5/ the Wizard. See http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/UltimateRoundupOfRegistryEditors.asp for more info.
What version of the wizard have you got mobile registry editor to work on?
I get access denied when trying to write to a HKLM value on a VARIO 1.6.2.4
Do we need to unlock RAPI?
If so how is this done?

Did you do it with the desktop-based MRE? It indeed won't work - HKLM is protected against outer access (see this article for more info on this new, WM5+ protection). Do it from a PPC-based registry editor - I've tested with Resco and it works flawlessly.
I use ROM version 1.5.X so that I can write to my Extended ROM. Hope this works with 1.6.x too. If not even Resco is able to modify anything under HKLM with ROM version 1.6.x, let me know.
Yes I can use local PPC based reg editors ok to edit the HKLM hive, but I wanted to get the PC based one working as it is more convenient to remote edit.
On the MRE web site it talks about blocked remote access and MS tools to reconfigure RAPI, was wondering if anyone had managed to find a configuration that worked.

It doesn't work with remote editors. Dunno whether this restriction can be circumvented. Use a PPC remote controller app (see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=514&more=1 ) for this to make your life easier.
I remember there was a post here explaining how to sort the programs by names in the folder Programs via correcting the register. I failed to find it. I did a hard reset in my device and need it again.
Pls., give me a link or an advice.
Thanks in advance.
I cant find it either, did you ever get it done?
i cant remember the exact key, but if you search the registry for the word 'order', you should find it
Hi all,
My other half bought a Touch Plus yesterday and I've been adding software to it to make all that much better.
The contacts are stored on the SIM and I've copied them all into Pocket Outlook. I then made the reg tweak to hide the SIM contacts which worked immediately, hiding all the SIM contacts. However, when I soft reset the device (via software or holding down the power button and then re-powering on) the registry value goes back to what it was - showing the SIM contacts!
Is there any way that reg value can be kept to 0?
Cheers
ND
Hi
I have the exact same problem and asked this question previously here, never got a answer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359152
The first thing after a reboot is to hide my SIM contacts... If anyone have a solution it would be very nice.
Kind Regards
I have found a solution...
Download dotfred's excellent TaskManager/Registry Editor from: http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Copy the exe to wherever you want on your device,
Use the registry editor in there to set the ShowSIM value to 0.
Export that registry value... to \My Documents\HideSIMContacts.reg (for example)
Create a shortcut to the task manager exe in Windows\StartUp.
Edit the properties of that shortcut (I use Resco Explorer) and set the Target as follows:
"<path to task manager>" \My Documents\HideSIMContacts.reg /silent
Make sure you have "'s around the Task Manager path BUT NOT around the path for the reg file.
Reboot...
Bob's your uncle.
I had the same issue with my previous Orange UK stock ROM, don’t know why the registry tweak does NOT stick after SR on certain ROM’s :-/ so in the end I resorted to installing the attached cab which fixed the issue
On my current HTCAsia WEE ROM the registry tweak works so no need for the cab fix! Anyway for those with ROM where the registry tweak does NOT work, you can use the fix mentioned here by NinjaDonkey or install the attached cab and soft reset, that should do the trick
AWESOME...thanks, I have a locked rogers HTC Touch and have tried many different Reg tweaks that would not stick to hide the SIMs in my Contacts, but the NIKI Sim fix above finally got it. Thanks, thank you, thanx again.
nikisimfix
hello !!
Thank you very much for this soft
Thanks guys for the wonderful solution.. I was going bonkers having to delete and add in all my contacts everytime I factory set my Niki. Cheers..
Other solution is RilhasHideSIM, for more see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467147
thanks gfreek this thing worked fine...
Thanks for sharing
Well done and thanks a lot for sharing!

"Note for users new to Windows Mobile you will need a registry editor to find and edit files beginning with either HKLM or HKCU and a file editor that can unhide system files. Resco supply both apps and are recommended but are not the only apps out there. All registry entries are in red."
Hi all,as this is my first window mobile phone,i do not understand what the above means and how they will help me.Can someone explained further.
Also,can someone advice a link that is similar to a dummy guide for window mobile phone.
Thks all for helping in advance

As this is your first windows mobile phone, I would strongly recommend ignoring that 1st sentance, and just enjoy the phone as much as possible. Then, when you know it better and have some idea what you'd like to do that it won't let you, come here and search for things (only ask after searching fails to find anything ).
If you've not had a windows mobile phone before, jumping into editing the registry and modifying system files is a 100% sure way to brick your phone. It's easy when you know how, so take your time and learn.
Other than that, welcome to XDA and the world of Windows mobile
Quite a lot of the registry tweaks can be don't in a user friendly way using a program called BSB Tweaks.The latest version is 1.6, so have a search for it here and install on your HD2.
That will probably keep you tweaking safely for a will.
thks for valuable advice,as now,i have come to understand why do i need to install the registry editor,however,i do not know the history of the window mobile phone,so can someone enlightened if there is any version on the registry editor and where can i get this.
Thank you in advance
There is a beta version of the Resco product you mention, which can be downloaded at their forum. This is the most convenient on your new touch capable device.
Please remember that playing around with registry settings can brick the system. In such a case, you will have to hard reset your device.
Also, I can only second what the other posters already recommended. Get to know your product step by step, especially with registry changes. Once you understand, it is no magic thing.
PHM RegEdit : http://www.4shared.com/file/61611749/7a9846ab/PHM_RegEdit.html
PHM Regedit "Import" grayed out
I am trying to import some previously saved reg files to my HD2. I just installed PHM Regedit from this thread but Import is grayed out on the Tools menu.
How can I import a registry file? Running the reg file directly opens PHM Regedit but does not import.
Thanks in advance!
I have used Win mobile for 4 years now, but just found XDA for 2 months ago.
So I searching for a guide 2 resco, so that i can unlock Bubble breaker + Solitere
And make screen prints like others on this side.
old htc p3300 But now Rocking on HD2
Can someone please give me a link of a registry editor that they recommend and preferably one that I can dl directly to my phone and install it from there. Id greatly appreciate it.
Total Commander
You'd find yourself lost for starters if you searched for the registry editor function in totalcommander.
You need to go to the root of the device, and go into "\\Plugins" from there to reach it.
Download this one. I think (besides Total Commander or so) it is a must have, because you can edit your registry from your PC, no need to install on your phone at all.

If you're going to edit the registry, be prepared to do extra independent research to check and double check what you're changing so you don't mess something up.

I use: CeRegEditor
It is easy to use from the PC, and have great features like, import/export, backup, and the very important compare feature (e.g., you can do a backup, and than after installing a program, compare the registry to the backup, so you can know which changes the program did).
And of course its free...
The guy wants one he can use on his phone and so do I. Any suggestions? A cab link would be divine but not necessary.
on my touch diamond on Mak's ROM's thrre was an app im sure it was ph registry editor ill see if it works on hd2
maybe next time a little research and post in the right section.

Reg Editor
The reason im asking for one to be installed on my phone is that I have it synced to a Mac.
Boot Camp
i would also like to know the answer to this... boot camp isn't the answer, nor is parallels, thats not what he is asking for...
i did use resco i think but the flashed new rom and haven't got it anymore so can't be sure. its not freeware either i believe?
any info
Does anyone recommend a program?
