Question: where is "provisioning" data stored?

Does anyone know where the provisioning values are stored?
For example, as part of the first-boot customization, several cab files write values to somewhere, getting entries from a xml file within the cab. Here's the partial contents of one such xml file:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="SecurityPolicy">
<parm name="4097" value="1"/>
<parm name="4101" value="16"/>
<parm name="4102" value="1"/>
<parm name="4103" value="64"/>

HTC Network Wizard and provision.zip

Basically what I am trying to do is provision the connections on my phone without having to first install HTC Network Wizard, Reboot, then run it and configure the connection and then reboot again.
I know that inside of HTC Network Wizard is the provision.zip file which I have unzipped and located the AT&T XMLs. They are formatted with what look like non-standard CSPs:
<characteristic type="CM_GPRSEntries">
<characteristic type="Cingular GPRS">
<parm name="DestId" value="{97626DCF-818F-4be1-AC7E-77DA1B01F145}"/>
<parm name="UserName" value="[email protected]"/>
<parm name="Password" value="CINGULAR1"/>
<parm name="AlwaysOn" value="0"/>
<characteristic type="DevSpecificCellular">
<parm name="GPRSInfoValid" value="1"/>
<parm name="GPRSInfoAccessPointName" value="wap.cingular"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>

If I try to import them like a normal provisioning XML I will get an error. My guess is because the CSPs are non-standard, like "CM_GPRSEntries" and that only HTC Network Wizard knows how to import them. I may be off base here...but that's my guess.
How can I import these to provision my network connections, or is there another way, or a particular set of reg keys I can just import to get everything setup?
thx.

comparing that provxml to the one in the at&t rom dump, they are similar.
Code:
<!-- MODEM[GPRS]: MEdia Net -->
<characteristic type="CM_GPRSEntries">
<characteristic type="MEdia Net">
<parm name="DestId" value="{97626DCF-818F-4be1-AC7E-77DA1B01F145}"/>
<parm name="Enabled" value="1"/>
<parm name="UserName" value="[email protected]"/>
<parm name="Password" value="CINGULAR1"/>
<characteristic type="DevSpecificCellular">
<parm name="GPRSInfoAccessPointName" value="wap.cingular"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>

instead of importing the provxml, why not use the att settings cab, i think u can probably find the cab for it in alltheway's 4shared folder

Thanks Xtreme...you're right the files look very much the same. I downloaded the .CAB, extracted the .XML and it imported just fine.
I then took a deeper look between the two and it seems that my original one was formatted different ASCII. You can't see the difference if you open the XML in a browser, but you can if you open them in notepad.
I converted my original to proper ASCII and it now imported!
I guess the HTC program can deal with different types of ASCII formatting, but the 3rd party XML imported cannot.
thx again.
BTW...I'm writing a generic script, which is why I don't want to just use the .CAB, and need to figure out how to import XML.

wap provisioning error

I have gone real mad to find out the error. I am trying to create a CLSID key that doesnt exist. I converted this into .cab but still nothing works. Installation of cab is unsuccessful. Please let me know what the issue?

Just to see what would happen.....

I took the Touch HD system response update released by HTC and tried to install it, granted it said wrong device.....so I said hmmm if the hardware is similar lemme extract this file and copy it over in the windows folder.....so I did this not knowing if it was going to start up or not....but to my surprise it did and all I can say is wow....the X1 was retardly fast....shrugs...nothing beats a failure but a try...May be worth it to implement this into the actual roms being cooked.
EDIT: I was using itje's 3.01 rom when I did this.

Wild Child, could you give more details? I grabbed that update and extracted it, and I'm looking at _setup.xml, but see two Folder actions (\Windows and \Temp), and I'm not sure if all 10 files go in \Windows.
I could also try to make an installer that works on any device, but I just have to know the proper file paths.
Also, does it just 'feel' fast, or have you done some real benchmarks?
If the performance gain is that great, then sure it would be worth it to implement this into custom ROMs/X1 installable CAB files.
Thanks for putting up your device to the risk!

which hotfix was it? I tried one and it inverted the screen display. quite amusing to get it back again as the touch screen calibration was still the other way up.

All I did was extract the files attached to the post here, connected phone to computer,copied them into the windows folder,over wrote a setup file and soft rebooted. This was with itje's 3.01 rom installed. Now it may be me but it improved the response of the phone. I didnt do any benchmarks. I figured since the rom files where htc maybe it would help...who knows....lol
WC

tried this patch and wanted to warn everyone. it's rotating the screen 180° but not the touchscreen input like fards said.
use it with caution!

Hmm I didnt experienced any rotating screens on mine. Shrugs.... Using the same files in the X1a nam rom also with now issues.
WC

i've just tried this and it works on itjes 3.01 rom a treat.

i just tested this seems safe. i say test for your self
the device seems very responsive but i cant say for sure if it from this as or from the very nice rom as i only flashed itje 301 rom an hour ago and i have no point of reference

Tried the files I posted on itje's 2.1 and same result...very responsive after reboot.....

those files aren't extracted, that's a corrupted cab not a zip file (the second one) they need decompressing. They won't do a thing in the format they are in...
That hotfix isn't needed for the newer blackstone roms as the files are included.
The only ones that do anything are DDI and gxdma
this is the setup xml to give you an idea of the files proper names.

The hotfix files I used are for the slider on the caller ID screen, before the slider would struggle and sometime touching it would not answer but silence the ringtone. Fix really works well.
if you want to extract cab files then search for MSCEinf, it's a great piece of software.

hmmm... shrugs....the first Touch HD system zip is an exe file not a cab,which is why it was able to be extracted the way it was(ie extracted zip)...so I dont know about a corrupted file.

XML Code help for BrowserFavs

Hi, please could someone point me in the right direction or tell me where I am going wrong.
I am trying to produce a cab that contains amongst other things the addition of some Browser Favourites and the removal of the default ones. I am using WinCE CAB Manager and currently trying to edit the PREXML Code.
I can add new Browser Favourites using the following code
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<characteristic type="Test URL">
<parm name="URL" value="URL Test" />
</characteristic>
When I try to remove the current ones such as Windows Live, HTC etc I use this code
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<nocharacteristic type="Explore Windows Mobile" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<nocharacteristic type="HTC" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<nocharacteristic type="Google" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<nocharacteristic type="AccuWeather.com" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="BrowserFavorite">
<nocharacteristic type="Windows Live" />
</characteristic>
So I use the nocharactristic type which then allows me to save code but then the CAB file will not install. They refuse to go. Where am I going wrong?! Thanks
