Need Button values in Registry - guide to come! - Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading

Hello everyone
I have installed one of the Touch Roms and currenty trying to fix the registry entries so that all Icons in Settings/Buttons will show up properly. The functions are working fine (Messanging, VoiceCmd, etc), but some buttons don't have icons and are not named properly. I found the area in the registry where the corrections are done, but I can't seem to figure out what the proper values are. Can anyone with stock ROM lock in the path below and tell me what the values are? I will create a small guide for everyone's benefit!
What I am looking for is all Reg values for all 7 or whatever number of buttons you have programed (40C1, 40C2, etc and values inside like Default, Icon, Name, etc). Feel free to ask questions and I will tell you exactly what I need. Thanks.
Registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys

I seen that no one as the stock rom on there wing and is unable to provide the keys so I went ahead and installed it back and exported the keys you needed ........................................ looking forward to the solution for the button issues

HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin - Please export

I need someone to export HKLM/security/phone/skin from their phone. I'm trying to determine what keys were lost on phone when I was trying out some skins. If you could export (or copy/paste) the reg key and the sub-keys that would be awesome. Please post the attachement or the code to this thread...
thanks
enabled 1(0x000001)
ext \windows\phcanhtc.dll
Does that help? Or do you need sub directories also?

I really need the subkeys. What I'm trying to figure out is why my call history and speed dial buttons are using the default icons instead the ones actually in the \windows directory. I've verified that skin's icons are n the windows directory but when I view the phone app, the buttons are back to default (for call history and speed dial only).
If you could export or copy/paste the 'portrait' subkey that would be very helpful.
Here you go. Need more? Let me know.

Have you done any phone dialer skinning on this phone? or is it the original phone skin?
I've got a bunch of text color reg entries so maybe that's the cause...
I did install the black HTC dialer but removed it long ago. I didn't think about that when I exported it... sorry!

no worries....
I made a backup of that key, tehn removed everything that wasn't on yours... rebooting, I'll let you know what I find.
Damn, still got the default buttons.
Griz, can you check your speed dial and call history buttons. Anyway you can snap a screenshot to show what your buttons look like?
BTW.. thanks for all your help on this. If we find a fix I know many threads that will benefit from this....
I don't know if you will be able to see this, I dont have a screen capture app on my phone so I used a camera...? If it's bad, I will load a screen capture app and retake a picture for you. Or maybe you need to see more of the screen?
actually I need the speed list screen and the call history screen. Here's a good & free screen capture util....
Install this from your pc, then assign the magicSS application to a button, go to the screen you want to capture, press the button, save the file. When you are done, reassign the button to the previous setting.
Application credits go to Lou ........ http://www.louterrailloune.com/?page_id=7
OK, how is this?
the 3rd one is what I was looking for...
hate to tell you this, you have the same issue. look at the image used in the call history button in the image above. Now, view the actual files that are used for those images in the /windows directory. The files are:
spd_lst.gif
clg_in.gif
clg_out.gif
clg_missed.gif
The above files should look different then the above image. Do they?
This is what I see in /windows/clg_in.gif
-- scratch that...
that should be the image you see when viewing call history inbound calls, as you can plainly see from your screen shots, what's in the windows folder is not what is being displayed in the phone app.
And here's the kicker, at one point it did match. The image you show above (clg_in.gif) is what my original call history buttons display like. Even on some of the skins I tried, the speed dial and call history buttons skinned properly. I just notice that it won't do it anymore.
Either a registry entry has changed (or been lost) or there's some sort of OS icon cache issue.
The only reason I don't think it's registry related is that those files are usually treated differently when skinning the phone dialer. Most skins will create a folder with the replacement images, then the install will change the registry to display the images in this new folder. These 4 files never get put into the new folder, they always get dropped directly into the windows folder, overlaying the ROM file. Also, I've never seen any registry entry for these images. I would think that the registry entries (if they existed) would be under the reg key mentioned at the start of the thread.

OK, I never noticed that these were wrong icons. But it's an easy fix. Just replace the ones that are in the /windows dir with the ones you want.
Is that what you are after?

yes that's how it should work, but it doesn't.... it's displaying a set of icons bulit into to the phone app...

How to change the main menu soft button?

Hi,
I have a Treo 750v (Vodafone version) which like what it's box said it is meant for email solution, that's why the left soft menu of the Today screen menu is set to Email.
Anyone know how to change this?
Thanks, appriciate your share of knowledge!
I forgot the details but this i know as much
You have to download the register editor program. Search around the registry is all the same when it comes to changing soft key for all WM phones.
The only problem with the Treo 750 is when you change the softkey from email to something else it ends up adding an extra short cut. So in essence you are not overwriting that key, all you are doing is adding an extra feature on top of the existing email button.
Maybe someone had better success than I did can chime in
Using a registry editor, navigate to Hkey_Current_User/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys/112
Change all 3 values to reflect your new function

wow, thank you very much mtiberio!
your link really hit the spot!
Very odd - my Registry setting for 112 was already showing Calendar as the default value but on screen it shows email.

It's all because Palm plugins - they overlay it. If you disable Active Call (or Dial Lookup?) you can have native-windows softkeys. It was all described in instructions how to ged back default dialpad.
i just downloaded the soft key changer that i found on here i think it was in the hermes section and copied it to my windows folder... after i did that it shows up in my settings and i can change both soft keys to what i want
was it:
"FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx.cab"

Backlight Fix Non-KaiserTweak Method (need)

Hi,
I want to fix the fast screen backlight issue on my Tilt w/o using Kaiser Tweaks. I've done it before, but I can't seem to find the website that listed the regsitry key that needs editing. I've searched this forum extensively as well as google but everything points to Kaiser Tweaks. I want to avoid having to use KT as I'm comfortable with editing the registry. So if someone would be so kind as to post the instructions here, that would be great. Once here, maybe should be transfered to the Wiki?
Thanks in Advance!

If you download Kaiser Tweak (wait for it, don't flame me yet...) and open the XML file that comes with it, you can ascertain what keys are modified by the application and then do them yourself.
I've done this before to get the keys for my Provisioning XML files.
EDIT:
Anyone can contribute to the Wiki, so feel free to add any information you deem relevant.

Made First ROM - Can anyone help

I finally put together my first ROM thanks to this extremely helpful site. Actually, it was just choosing, swapping, deleting files and packages, but I'm still proud of myself. Everything works great, TF3D is smooth and quick, SMS works and the phone functions are fine.
But I have one really annoying problem. In the WM 6.1 settings menu, my icons and font are sort of screwed up (too large) and the tabs are not right. I have tried adjusting the icons and fonts with Diamond Tweak and Advanced Config Tool, but was unable to totally resolve the problem. Here is a screenshot. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? How can I fix it? Do I need to re-cook and change some things in the kitchen, or can I solve it some other way? I would prefer not to re-flash and reinstall.
Thanks a bundle.
As you can see, I also ended up with 2 "phone" icons, one that leads to the WM properties and one that leads to the TF3D phone setting.
I am not familiar with the WM6.1 registry but I bet this has been mentioned and solved before
search for phone & control panel in this subforum and you'll find it
also, look at the sticky threads: jerpelea's kitchen and chefs develop and share centre
I am sure I saw it somewhere, but I cook over WM6.5 so I didn't pay attention to it...
my first thought would be: go to /windows/ start menu/ settings and check there maybe
The font size and icons spacing can be adjusted within the registry
You can use a registry editor from your PC to do it
I can't point you to the exact location of those registries but hope this helps
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone
change "group" to "Hide" =1 valve
if you cooked yourself
go and edit
goto SYS folder
goto sub-folder Shell
edit file with rgu extension (only one)
search for
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone]
"Group"=dword:1
just change "Group"=dword:1 to "Hide"=dword:1
Thanks so much guys. I recooked and fixed the problems with your help.

Pure's Default Registry Settings

Hello everyone. I've got the HTC Pure from AT&T. I was reading through some other posts about registry tweaks to improve the performance of the camera, unlock picture modes, increase photo quality, etc. All of the tweaks seemed relatively harmless to the phone, and the only risk was to the camera if something didn't work.
Well something did not work, but I'm not sure what it was. Some of the tweaks worked fine (like unlocking Sport and Burst photo modes). However, now whenever I take a regular picture with the camera the phone freezes when it displays the picture I just took. The only thing I can do at that point is press the "end/hang up" button to return to the main Today screen in TF3D. But then when I return to the camera app it won't load, and the picture I just took was not saved either. If I run the cleanRAM app, the results show between 1-2megs freed up, then the camera app responds again, but still the same end result.
I've reviewed all the settings in HKLM>Software>HTC>Camera and everything there and in those subfolders appears normal. But I don't remember what the settings were originally. I'm hoping if I return the camera registry settings to their default values this problem will be fixed.
Does anyone have a list of the default HTC camera registry settings? Also, what are the other registry keys that affect the camera besides the folder where I've been looking?
By the way, I did post this same question in the "Windows Mobile General" section, but a senior member suggested I post it here instead. I'm relatively new to this site and didn't realize a specific section existed for the Pure/TD2.
There are multiple keys throughout the registry that affect the camera.
You may need to do a hatrd reset to get it back.
I'm trying to avoid that. I was hoping that someone had a stock rom and could export the registry for me to compare, or at least the sections affecting the camera.
If someone out there (who has NOT modified the registry sections for the camera) could just share the info that would be great.

That would be amazing and really helpful! If it's not too much trouble, after your hard reset, just export the entire registry so we'll always have it as a reference going forward for anyone who needs original values.
Ok, so I finally broke down and did a hard reset on my Pure. It's a pain in the butt, but there was no other way to fix the little irritating glitches that I was having.
After the hard reset, the VERY FIRST thing I did was install PHM Registry Editor and export a backup of the entire registry. I also created a separate backup of the camera settings in HKLM>Software>HTC>Camera, because that was where I think the problem was coming from.
However, PHM creates .rbk files, not .reg files, and I don't know how to view them. It's all a jumbled mess when viewed with Notepad. There is no option to change the exported backups to .reg files either. But anyway, at least I've got a backup file of the entire registry if I need to reference it later - I'll just have to find a way to actually view these files or change them to .reg's.
