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.

Ok...I have tried several different cab file from every site...PPCGeeks, PDAphone...I have not yet found the file that will unlock and unhide the extended rom for the HTC 6800. Has anyone been able to do this yet. PLEASE HELP !!!!
You can use a RegEditor to unhide the ExtROM... but IIRC no one has unlocked the ExtrROM to edit it...
\\HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV\
change MountHidden=0, exit the RegEditor then Soft Reset
thank you to show us how2 do that. ;-)
I did the steps using PHM RegEdit.
Then navigate to the location:
\\HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\EXT_FLASHDRV \
then change the value (default at 1) to 0.
I then did a Soft Reset -- but no joy. I don't see the drive. Thoughts?
I'm a COMPLETE newbie- but i think (from reading so far) you need to wait at least a minute for any reg changes to be committed before you soft reset.
Did you wait that minute?

Hmm -- well originally I sure didn't. However, I did the hack again and then waited.
And now we have JOY!! Thanks.
What can this extended ROM offer us?
Nothing until it is unlocked and we are able to write to it. Then it will offer a few more megs of ram to install apps tr you could set up your own apps you use to start like the Sprint customizations do.
I am trying to change some registry settings to do things such as 'adjust volume settings' 'adjust backlight settings' 'turn bluetooth on and off' etc etc.
I want to use mort script to make the changes but so far I haven't figured out how to make the changes take effect without a soft reset, even when making the changes with a registry editor.
Does anyone know how to do this so that the changes take effect immediately?
Any help appreciated.
two things:
1st: all of the things you mentioned above should work without a reset. the best thing to do is change the reg value manully and if it works with out a reset then you know the problem is in the mort script
2nd: If you know how to edit xml files then download this cab and edit the xml file how you want. this should help some

this has a lot of apps in it you will be looking for the one that says tweaks
Thanks for the info irus,
Like I said, using a registry editor to change the settings does not take effect until I soft reset.
For example (and i'd appreciate it if someone could test this on their phone) changing the values in HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume...."Volume" and "Ringer" to 0 assuming it is not already set to silent does not actually turn the phone to silent until I soft reset.
Could someone please check this for me and report back.
BTW I'm using a Trinity (HTC P3600) with AX3L's LITE ROM.
Thanks in advance.
I tried it and it did not work, you sould try to edit the xml file in the program i told you about and try it there. when i get done with homework i will try it my self
Registry value is read by windows while loading. In case of desktop pc if you restart the explorer process the registry gets loaded. you need to find some way to load the registry again.

Thanks fuzzvirus but that was my original question.
Does anyone know of a way to do this?
Bump......
I'm also interested in this theme. Does anyone know an answer?
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.

hello !!

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..

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.
Guys,
I'm new in this forum so I wish say hi to everybody...
Then, I have an HTC diamond 2 (original rom) I've searched for the topic in the forum and I found just a solution working in my phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515808&page=3
I've downloaded the cab and everything is working fine, but, because on soft reset all the values return to the original one I'm forced to install the cab everytime, so it should be easier to create a button that is going to modify the following parameter in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms]
"HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended"=dword:00000001
Is it possible? There is someone helping me?
I have to keep on the wifi in order to use my voip...
Thanks in advance,
Markuz
You can export that registry key and just insttall the registry instead of the cab if the settings aren't sticking.
