Probaly not a good idea to mess in the registry if you haven't got a clue what the hell you doing.
Except if you want to screw up your phone ofcourse.

It's indeed an abbreviation for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
You can find this key in your registry. To access it you need an Registry Editor.
Some freeware programs that can do this:
- DotFreds TaskManager
- Total Commander
- PHM Registry Editor

I wouldn't advise modifying the registry unless you know what you are doing. The fact that you don't know what HKLM is or where to find it, to me means you need to do more research on the subject first.

Thats cool, just don't eat them all @ once
I know this is an old thread, but I have a question related to the registry. I'm going to reflash my phone after editing the pagepool... sticking with Ricky's v24 rom also. I don't want to have to go through and redo all of the customizations that I've done, and have backed up all of my icons, cpr, and bronzeres.dll files. I also exported both CHome registry portions (that Showaco originally asked for at the start of this thread).
My question is after the flash and installing all relevant apps, as well as copying over the icons, cpr, and bronzeres files... can I just use the resulting .reg files to restore all of my panels on the homescreen?

Yes, you should be able to import the registry after flashing and doing any other setup to chome(or before setup). Just to make sure, try importing before flashing to see if your .reg files are correct and working. I've had trouble using .reg files from Mobile Registry Editor and Phm registry editor, but thats just my experience. I use CERegEditor or Resco to export/import reg files now.
Thanks... I used Resco and it worked like a charm...

Change - Icon`s, Buttons, Themes and etc (Question)

Hello to all guy`s here i just have One very simple question... will be fine if someone can answer me clear.
Befor i use only Symbian Phones and all was diferent from NOW!
Now i have HTC touch HD and sometimes i really think that is very confused to operate with this device what i mean exactly is..
I read alot in this forum and in other forum`s.. and i can`t understand One Thing.
Why for example if i wana change my Start Menu Icon.. or Action buttons or even my theme i need to do so many confused things like change this file, rename this.. overwrite that.. extract this. all this is 1st confused second is not good for the phone and for YOU.
I will explain you why..
For example now i wana change my Start Menu Icon.. but after i read alot things im not sure do im able to change it
So for example if i change it.. after a while someday if i wana get back my stock icon`s what i need to do? I will forgot what exactly i rename,change where witch file i put and etc.. and this is just for one Start Menu Icon.. imagine when you change and costumaze the whole bar`s icons etc.. after few mounths im sure you will not know witch file exactly is modifet and etc!
The question is.. befor when i use Symbian all was so clear and easy i wana change something just install the app and that`s all if i don`t wana use this icon`s or themes anymore i can easy just remove them and that`s all!
So i wonder and asking myself why here not have the same things in .CAB`s
For example i wana change my icon`s just installing some .cab and all is done when i don`t want them just uninstall all will be so clear and easy and good for the phone.
I don`t understand from this things for this reason im asking you Maybe is very hard all this icon`s font`s and other items that the whole forum write tip`s how to change this how to chagne that can`t be made in a single .CAB file?
We can make our life better with a simple .CAB installation no need to change any manilla files or overwrite any dll and etc....
P.S Sorry for my english but it`s not my Mother.. language like you can see
Regards
ive got most hings in cab files so it doesnt bother me and i flash my rom so many times that i dont even have the time to get bored with something because i dont instal it after i flashed
so i think this is a thing thats different for every user
Do u have .CAB for change of the icon`s or start menu icon?
ive got one for all the icons on top with the picture that pulls the start
the site is full of them
and i had one that only the top left one made to a scull
Sorry for bodering you but like i say im new on all this with the WM can you please give me this cab`s that you have for the scull logo and the other to install and see how they will look like on my phone!
Thanks in advance

No need to markup your story like that. People will read it with default settings as well... ...If you can't remember what you've changed I advise you not to change anything, or keep a text file containing information about your personal tweaks.
The reason that it's quite cumberstone to change things is because Microsoft never wanted you to change those parts of the software. Some clever people found a way to get pass the ideas of Microsoft and managed to to change parts of the OS that's on your device.
This is the same reason why you can't put all files in one CAB file. Some files are read only files and need some "special attention" to be modified\replaced. Second thing is that ROM files depend on their language. Most compatibility will be achieved by using a WWE ROM
You can apply changes to the OS easier by using a program like Wisbar Advance. But you will notice that the system will become slower. Thats why a lot of people prefer to do some freeware tweaking to their devices. I hope this story clears up some things for you...
Thank you for all you wrote but the point was other anyway i find some apps i was looking for the question was why the peoples don`t make .CAB`s and do it the hardest way so to change some icon`s font clock`s and everything all this is possible with a signle CAB file no need to change something or overwrite or re-name and someday when you don`t wana use this you can just uninstall the .CAB that was the point i already use some of the .CAB`s that change icon`s etc and its perfect!
Thank`s to the miniterror

Hi rotastrain
I am using Duttys Latest Leo R2 ROM and I am unable to find the file specified.
I did use Total commander and specified to search for hidden ,system files
still no luck..
In this ROM the right softkey is assigned for Menu funtions and need not be reassigned.
But the left softkey can be reassigned to either Camera or Comm Manager ..
Oh i thought u were saying manila 2.1
i need the file 7c60907d_manila if ur using new manila!(2.5)

Sorry for the confusion .. my mistake
Since the title said 2.5 Manila I assumed this thread was for only the new manila..
here is my 7c60907d_manila
Left SW key I think is stored in "07c67730_manila"
Unfortunately I can not modify this file with "m9editor3.3.0.1"
Showing an error during compilation
Even though the file only compiles and de compile then again (no change in the file), the error is there, too
Any idea how to change the file

My current work around is to leave the soft key and to remap the hard key
It is quite annoying not to be able to change the soft keys...as someone said here, the default ones are quite redundant...and, wtf, no one from HTC though it is useless?
Why do I need a phone softkey since it is easier to press the phone hard key?
The only worthy softkey is the menu one, at least for manila 2.5...cause through this key it is possible to change the quick link and related today screen stuffs...

You have to edit the CPR with the font that you like. Place new font in windows directory of phone and edit CPR with new font. There is a link to the thread on how to edit your CPR in sticky.
Good luck,
Are there any .cabs that I can download for fonts and also how would I find a file name of a font that I want to use? Im kinda leerie about adjusting anything in my registry only because I dont wanna brick my phone an what not, thanks fellas..

The CPR is located in windows directory of your phone. If you are using WM6.5 by Ookba then you have to edit the file name : Titanium_320x240.cpr. Find this file pn your phone, then copy it to PC, where you can use notepad to edit the file. Once done, you need to copy it back to phone.

No.. you don't edit your Titanium 320x240.cpr to "file name.cpr" You have to edit the content of the cpr. Please refer to the link on my previous post.

If you are no longer using the font you can rename the extention with Total Commander or Resco Explorer eg: font.ttf to font.bak then restart phone and delete it.
