I have Total Commander via the 2.24 ROM from xelencin, and need to install three .reg files I downloaded from the forum. They are part of the Camera Registry modifications, but I don't know how to install them into the Registry.
I went to the Total Commander web site, but could find no help there. Any ideas? I know that I will kick myself in the butt when someone tells me how simple this is, but I have brain freeze.

Resco has a file explorer and registry add-on. The registry add-on acts as a standalone program and has an import feature. I don't believe you can use Total Commander to import registry files, but you can open the file on your pc, and on your phone navigate to the proper location and make the change. I like having a cache of reg files because it makes a start-up config much faster after re-flashing the phone while reducing the chance for error. Note the resco products aren't free (but trial works just fine).
Hope this helps!
Thanks. I'll download a trial version and give it a try.

Anybody know where i can download a reg editor? and should i download it onto the phone or onto my pc?
Well you can use resco regedit, comes with resco explorer.
Total commander works, but i doubt u know how to use it.

If it ends in .cab that goes on your phone, if you are unsure what filetype it is, unzip it, if you see a bunch of files in there than u just unzipped a cab file which is a no-no. So toss the cab file into ur storage card and use _insert file explorer here_ than double click it.
Is there a way to easily bypass the "Locked in ROM" problem?
As an example; when you copy a file named "welcomehead.96.png" into thewindows folder, you get a message saying you can't do it. When you look at properties, you find that the "Locked in ROM" option is checked and grayed out. Can I fix this?
Thanks
I would really appreciate it if anyone who have replaced the welcomehead.96.png file, wuld tell me how you did it, and what ROM you are using
I was able to do it with Resco File Explorer. I just copied the file to My Documents, and then opened Resco and was able to copy the file to the Windows folder. It would then prompt me to overwrite the ROM file and I confirmed, and it worked fine.
Hope this helps.
Welcomehead
Works just as SacTilt described. I have done it many times on mine.
I have used Total Commander and had no problems at all.
Thank you for the replies. But what kind of ROMs where you guys using?
I'm using Dutty's, so I guess it might have something to do with what Dutty may have done. I dunno

The ROM that you are using, shouldn't matter. What application are you using to copy the file? What is the process that you are going through to complete this?
Right, rom doesn't matter, it's the fact that the stock file explorer can't over-write read-only files like welcomehead but 3rd party file managers like Resco can.
using Dutty v3, and Total Commander to copy welcomehead.96.png file
no problem at all
Straaange. I was able to do it before, but after a softreset at some time, I couldn't. I've tried, Resco, Total Commander, stock explorer and the one with Device manager. All gives me a "no access" error. :\
I tried with Dutty v2 and the included Total Commander, it won't work
i have duttys v3 on mt tilt what i had to do was use total comander first to delete the original... then i used the file explorer to drop in the new one... but tbh i think i had to do it like that cuz i couldnt figure out how to do it all with total comanader
I have tried using several registry apps to successfully export [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Launcher] belonging to a previous Hutch 3 ROM.
I now want to re import these keys into my newly installed Duttys 6.1.
How do I do this?
Scuse the newb question (duck for cover) but on a PC you tap the *.reg and it will import into the registry. On my Kaiser running Duttys 6.1 I have PHM_Regedit but Import option is greyed out.
A search did not resolve it so any help would be appreciated.

Install FdcSoft's Taskmanager (it has a built in Regedit), by DotFred. In there you can associate .reg files with it. Then just run them to import.
Great I'll grab it. Thanks Dave I really appreciate the help. I know you all get sick to death of our newb questions.

Dont worry. I spent 10 minutes trying to use PHM before I gave up.
Dot Fred's TaskManager is a kick ass task manager as well as a reg editor (amongst other stuff).
P.S. Easiest way to associate is: Open TaskMgr, tools, options, Create RegEit Shortcut. This will ask do you want to associate.
Cool I can see how to do all that now thanx.
Only hiccup is I can only run it from my Storage card. I cannot work out how to copy it to my \Windows folder. I cannot work out how to delete the existing basic taskmgr.exe that installed with Dutty's. I guess this is because it is a system file. If I try and copy and replace I get error message saying not possible. Whats the trick here?

Don't know. I just leave the exe in My Docs, and run it from the shortcuts.
Okay. Will do same. thanks..
Resco Explorer will also do it.
To dotfred from your SD Card, do this:
Place the .exe in you \Storage Card\Programs folder. With your desktop PC, navigate to \Windows Mobile Device\My Device\Storage Card\Programs & right click on the exe file. Select create shortcut. Move the shortcut to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs using desktop pc.
Voilla! you are done, go check Programs & it's there.
this is the steps i usually take when entering in a reg file. I use resco explorer for all this. I double click. Then I make sure I close resco through the menu exit and not the X button. Then I continue to play around with my phone for a while opening up menus and stuff. Then I soft reset. Doing these steps, I for sure get my stuff to work. There might be some unnecessary steps I take, but I end up with what I want. Many people have trouble keeping their registry stuff to stick. The steps I take, I never worry about that.

Thanks for the tip. Was not aware you could make shortcuts this way. Running from the card appeals because the .exe will still be there after reflashing a new ROM and I will only need to move/copy the shortcut. Being a newb I have been somewhat reluctant to run apps from the card but I am gathering that is is a quite an acceptable thing to do.
Is there a way to place registry keys inside a CAB so that they will get imported when the CAB is launched? Whilst the above DotFred association method works a treat for me with ".reg" files I would like to find a standalone method to import registry info. So that I can pass a single file to someone else and without any extra config they can import the contents into their registy.
definitely. There are a lot of cab creators where you can just enter in your reg key and will create your cab. Someone recommended me this program. I really like it.

Thanks for the link thomasster. Does the job well. Probaly an overkill (and therefore overpriced for what I need), but I got it to work OK. Also from using it, I learnt that the process simply converts the registry keys to provxml. So now I am looking to manaully create the "_setup.xml" and then use iexpress.exe in Vista to create the CABs.
Is there a way to undo changes made by import .reg file?
I imported a reg file using DotFredd's Taskmanager. Now I want to undo it? Is it possible? How?
Thanks
I have just purchased an HX4700 and downloaded a WM6 rom....there are some very talented people out there. I have searched the web for any other rom to get the 'transcriber' functionality back but am not having any luck. I apologise if there is already an entry about this however I have not found it.
I did down a CAB file and copied to my pda, clicked on the setup...got a screen like html text, did a soft reset but nothing changed. It was called MS_transcriber. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Read this and this.
Download.
Thankyou CWKJ for the help.....excuse my ignorance but I'm not sure where to go with the info in the other threads.
I am running wm6.1. I extracted the 'Input Method Fix' and copied the files to my PDA. I then double clicked on the '_setup.xml' file and a list of text like html ran. I then did a soft reset of the device but the transcriber functionality is not listed as a input option.
Do I need to physically alter the registry file and if so how? I have done it on a PC many times but not a PDA.
thankyou for your patience.
By installing the cab, the registry should be correct.
There are tools like TotalCommander (freeware, google and you will find) which I use can help read registry, but do not try to meddle registry for new comers.
For both Recognizers, check if msim.dll is in \windows\ directory.
For Transcriber, check if TranscriberSip.dll is in \windows\ directory.
Using file explorer to check the files may not work as the files may by hidden. If you cannot find them, use TotalCommander as file explorer to check.
If it is not there, I will send them to you, and you just need to copy them into \windows\ directory.
I downloaded total commander. Ran a search for the "TranscriberSip.dll" file however could not find it.
I would appreciate it if you could send it to me thanks.
Shane
.....I had changed the preferences to look for hidden files as I did find the "msim.dll".....still need the "TranscriberSip.dll" from you if you could assist.
Tks, Shane
27/5/08: Disregard my last as I have solved the Transcriber issue. Was a *.cab install issue.
Tks again for the help.
Hey, i had a question, the TP has got many tweaks, you have to manually put them into the registry, my question is: is there a program that can do al the tweaks that i want automatically? i know there are some programs like advanced config, diamond tweak etc etc. but i only want a to put all the "Queries" in 1 txt file just like SDCONFIG.TXT. sorry for my english! hope someone can help me or make a program like this! i think a program like this could help many people, especially the people who are afraid of editing the registry.
thnx in advance
Using an XML file, you can accomplish this with SDCONFIG.TXT and a provisioning XML, see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1896955&postcount=2

ok thnx for your help!
now can anyone make a XML files with the best working tweaks for the TP ???
Use Diamond Tweak
You could use advanced confic and then select export provisioning or something like that and then select witch items you want to export and then put that into your sdconfig worked perfect for me using sashimi witch does the same thing basicaly as sdconfig just easier to add and delete cab's and whatnot.
If you know all of the registry tweaks, you can use my QuickCab utility to create a cabfile. Just put your registry tweaks in the cab file, and install it like a regular program.
Here's the thread and I'm working on a new version that should be ready for testing soon.

nice going to see that topic!
You can export/import also parts of the registry with Resco Explorer and Registry add-in. Best software for PC I can recommend is Registry Workshop to join/split/compare registry entries,etc...
