newbie question about hard reset and registry editing

hi alll... just wondering... if i edit my win 2003 registry, will they get back to the original if i do HARD RESET???? thank you once again

yes

Registry Unlock

What do I need to run on the Artemis to unlock the registry so I can make changes? It allows me to edit with PHM but after soft reset the values go back. Thanks

It is WM5 delay write on registry. Switch it on and off (optionally, wait 5 minutes) before softreseting. it should stick.

Thank hanmin. I learned something new today. It worked, much appreciated.

I know it won't help, but I have exactly the same problem...
I successfuly unhide ExtRom, but no way to write something in it...

Unlock not successfull
Hi all !
I tried to unlock extended ROM of my P3600 - but like another user in thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=273424&page=3&highlight=tytn+extended+rom - described - after changing the registry keys and soft reset the device - the registry keys show the original values and extended ROM is still hidden.
Would you be so kind and describe how unlocking the extended ROM worked with your device ?
Thanks in advance !

In another thread I read (don't recall which one) that you need to exit (not minimize) the registry editor prior to the soft reset, otherwise the changes in the registry won't stick.
Maybe this helps?

Hi folks,
AFAIK in my opinion it is not necessary to close active applications instead of minimize, simply turn off the device and wait about 20 seconds before soft reset cause wm05 needs this time to flush the modify into the registry, or in alternative soft reset via a software instead stylus+hole. This is a known caratteristict of wm05 if you do a google search you'll find many threads about taht.
Hope this help, if I'm not wrong...

Unlock successfull
Many thanks - waiting about 20 seconds before soft reset worked fine. Now the extended ROM is visible. Still read only but i am optimistic.

By doing this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV\FATFS]
"EnableCache"=dword:00000001
Now i can del the extROM files, and write what ever i want, but when i do a softReset every thing is erased and the extROM files re-apear.
Anyone know what to do...

No Way!!!!!!!

I done how you said, and effectively i can copy any file i want into the extended rom but when i make a soft reset, whatever i have copied in it,
disappear.I mean i can see only the original files and nothing else.
I have also tried to copy three other files and with the Totalcommander i have marked them as read only.Made a soft reset but had the same results.
The three files were not any more visualized in the extended Rom.
Anybody had success to write into the Extended Rom without loosing the files after making a soft reset?
If yes which is the right procedure?
Thanks in advance.

stock Registry key needed

I'm an idiot and have deleted a key from my registry when I meant to delete a sub-key.
I am looking to recreate the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items
preferebaly from a stock 1.14 ROM without anything added. However, if anyone can export the key from a stock ROM even with their other TODAY screen plugins added, I can edit it down.
I would rather not do a hard reset to reinstall this if I can help it as I have too many other things set up.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

hope this helps
cheers

You are a star! Thank you very much indeed.

Delete SimContacts from Contatc just works until next Reset

Hi,
I either use the Xperia Tweal, Advanced Config or direct Registry manupilation ShowSim=0 but all I do, after a reset they are back again and showsim is back to 1. What the hack is changing my setting back to some "default" after a regular reset?
Cheers - Susan
