Making CAB file with all your personal settings

Hi all,
Does anyone have experience with making your own CAB file that contains your personal settings, such as:
- Owner info
- Common program settings
- Telco network settings (MMS, SMS, etc)
I want then to include this CAB in my Ext ROM, so I don't need to go through customizing after each Hard Reset.
A small tut would be great, and I will post this in wiki.
Thanks!

Hi HappyGoat.
I don't know if can help you, but try this:
http://www.customcabbage.co.uk/
At least for smartphones is working... Just a shot but... :roll:

hi happygoat
i really dont know if blueangel and himalaya have the same registry configuration ..
but in himalaya you can find the Owner and Notes information in this registry Section(suggest to set it already and then export it with registry editor)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Owner
"Notes" -> is for the Notes of Owner Information
"Owner" -> is for Personal Information
for Regional Settings(set the value already then just export the entire key)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls
for Clock GMT (set the value then export the entire key with regedit)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time
and in here(sometimes needs to set both)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Clock
for Changing the Default SIP
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SIP
"DefaulfIM" <- Change the value of this depends on SIP DestID(can be found in CLSID look for the Key with "IsSIPInputMethod" Subkey)
example: (Dont use this search for the SIP DestID in your device sometimes it differ in different device)
Keyboard -> {42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}
Block Recognizer -> {42429691-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}
Letter Recognizer -> {42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}
Transcriber -> {F0034DD0-2AD4-11d1-9CB0-E84BE8000000}
Phone Pad -> {51A2CB38-154E-4C92-A625-A83871C99EC2}
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SIP
Make the SIP Drageable
"DragStyle" <- Set 1 to make the SIP Dragable, 0 to fix Position or not movable[
WORD Completion Settings
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SIP
"SuggAutoCorr" <- 1 if AutoCorrect or Replace text as you type, 0 if not
"SuggChars" <-Number of letters before suggesting a word/s
"SuggWords" <- Number of Word/s to be suggested, set 0 to disable Word Suggestion
"SuggSpace"-> 1 to add space after suggested word, 0 if not
to Change the Default Control Panel Program Location goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel
on each Control Panel Module key
set the value of "Group" to this
0 -> to locate it to Personal Tab
1 -> to System Tab
2 -> to Connections tab
for example to change the Buttons Setting location goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Buttons
change the value of "Group" to 0 so you will see the button settings in the Personal Tab, 1 if you want to System tab, or 2 if you want to locate the Button setting in the Connections tab
Unhide Control Panel Program
remove the "Redirect" value in the following
Policy or AdminPassword
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\AdminPassword
Old Backlight Settings
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Backlight
Contrast Settings
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Contrast
Old Power Settings
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Power
Change the Device ID
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Ident
"Name"-> Device Name
"Desc"-> Device Description

Excellent toenailed...
I will start a nice wiki on "How To Make Your Own PersonalSettings.CAB file"
Looking forward to also include your basic network settings (for SMS and MMS etc.).
Thanks again for your elaborate work.

I have made a .reg file with all my settings. I'll post it here.
Download "WinCE CAB Manager".
With this, you can make your .CAB file.
Make a new CAB or open an existent file that you want to install and import the .REG file in that CAB.
Save it.
Copy to PDA and test it!
The better way to do a REG file is hard reset the device, export all the registry, customize all that you want and export all the registry again.
Copy to desktop PC, compare it (I use Compare It!), and make your XDAcustom.reg file.

hiya Khashim ..
AFAIK.. you cannot set Buttonlock in registry ..
use the SetButtonLock.exe if you want to turn ON the Button Lock during hard reset .. ..

Thanks toenailed

Thanks to ToeNailed, it's a really good job. By and large all of the setting for Imate PDA2k is working nicely.

Thanks toenailed for a really nice layout...!
Added a new page to wiki:

Ok I am trying...
but 1)Extract the keys from your registry using Resco Explorer or Pocket Controller software
2) Open each .reg file using Notepad or UltraEdit, and save all the keys in one .reg file by copy-paste
I have made a full backup file on my storage card of my registry with PMH, now I think to do the follow:
1) backup all programs and data with Sprite software on sd card
2) upgrade to new rom
3) reinstall PMH and restore registry
4) reinstall Sprite and restore programs
5) ... it will be ok ? I hope so because I really don't understand how to follow step 2 by HappyGoat
Thanks for pacience..

In resco you need to got to options -> add in
and tick the Active add-ins -> "My registry"
Then in the root window open -> My Registry
Long hold on what ever you want
Pop up for inport / export comes up.
Then find the file on your device
copy to pc.....

thanks all.... great tweaks and info

hi..sorry maybe is an obvious reply.. but my resco (explorer 2003 v5.13) in add-ins has only "internal zip compression" and "my ftp locations" no "my registry" box...
PS solved with another sw (PMH regedit) thanks anyway..be back soon

did you do an upgade over the internet on your device,
I had the same problem with the ftp add-in.
Best is to go over handango and download the install, run it of your desktop when connected and I think it asks you which add-ins you want.
Its a cab file that is executed on your device.
As you dont have that option the cab has not beem executed.

How to change ringtone

hi there, can anyone helpme, i want change the default ringtone for calls and for sms's. Do i have to change something in the registry???
Thanks
Andres

No, go to start--settings--sounds and notifications--notifications--then choose which sound you want to change and change it. If you want to add your own ringtones then transfer it to the phone and find it using the above method...scroll down the list and click to use it.
Next time read the manual...it will tell you how to do certain things.

Settings > Sounds > Advanced
Choose the Notifications tab
Pick the Event - ie 'Messaging - New SMS Alert' and set 'Ring Tone' as you want.
If you have a custom Ringtone, you can simply use File Explorer and find the file... hold the stylus / finger on the file and choose 'Set As Ringtone'

Already did it but ringtones only works for Incoming Calls, not for New SMS

Solved, if you want to change for a custom ringtone for SMS, Email or something different of Phone Call all you have to do is copy and paste the custom ringotne on to c:\windows and then select it from: Settings > Sounds > Notifications tab.
Thanks to all for your support.

Testing, brings up Phone information & Battery information

AnyCut is cool but I want to make something that has all that information in a collective app that i can just click and obtain info. A report would be nice too, like with the network diagnostics tool in BlackBerry OS.

Anyone know if there is a way to bring up a certain contact. I know its possible to make a direct call/sms shortcut. But i would like to be able to open the contact and then select call or sms. I dont like making 2 shortcuts for 1 contact
MArtijn

having used this before and creating a few short cuts. But creating this pic mes short cut is driving me mad. can it be done

Built-in Calendar Won't Save Preferences

The built in calendar won't save any preferences on reboot. (ATT Galaxy Note 3, KitKat). No matter how may times you change the preferences (like turning off alerts, changing the view, etc.) it will always go back to default on any reboot. I also have Google Calendar installed, that one saves the preferences just fine after reboot. I'm not rooted. Any thoughts as to either disable this calendar app (you can't, since it's grayed out and won't allow it to be turned off) or make it save these preferences for good?

[PROJECT] Automactically Switch between 12hr/24hr on WatchMaker (Android Wear)

Hello all XDA users! I created a project that automatically switches the clock format on your WM watchface whenever you switch between the formats on your phone via system settings.
===Prerequisites===
First and foremost, you need to install the Tasker (I used this on full version but it may work on the trial version) and have Allow External Access enabled, you can do this by doing the following:
Press the 3 dot menu
Click Preferences
Swipe over to Misc and find Allow External Access, then tap it to enable it
Done!
Then you need AutoTools by joaomgcd, you can download it here
Have USB Debugging enabled for ADB configuration for AutoTools
To Enable this, do the following:
Go to Settings
Go to About Device
Find your build number and click it several times until the phone says that you have enabled developer mode
Go into Developer Settings
Click on the tab that sets USB Debugging to enable it
Done!
Have ADB Drivers/Fastbook installed, here are two places that you can download these from but you don't have to download from these: Skipsoft, XDA
Have Installed WatchMaker Premium or Free Version
===About this Project===
What this project does is check if you have booted up your device and if so, it records the current time format your clock is set to. Then it checks if you have changed the format of your clock via broadcast intent, then it compares the previously recorded setting and the new setting, if they do not match, the task sends the new setting to WatchMaker and it changes the format on the watch to the new setting.
===Building the Project===
The first and foremost you MUST do is ensure that you have downloaded and got everything from the prerequisites. Once you have everything, follow the instructions for enabling access to system settings for AutoTools (you HAVE to do this in order for the profile to function correctly, as it needs to read the configuration for the 24hr format switch in the system settings, the profile will ONLY be looking at this setting). Once you have done these, you can move on to making the actual profiles
For the first profile, it will record the current clock format soon after the device boots up
So we must create an Event profile that will trigger soon after the phone finishes booting on, leave Invert unchecked
Now here's what you need for the actions:
Plugins -> AutoTools -> Secure Settings. Then click custom settings and do the following:
Setting Type: System
Name: time_12_24
Input Type: String
Leave Value Blank
Read Setting: Enabled
Variables -> Variable Set. Set %TIME_FORMAT to %time_12_24 (its the variable that AutoTools passes for the custom setting). This records the value we got from AutoTools and stores it in a global variable for us to use later on
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Vibrate. For Title: put 'Logged Format Time' without quotes, and for text, added 'Log Format: %TIME_FORMAT' without quotes. This will notify that you have logged the format and will tell what the format is.
OPTIONAL: Task -> Wait. Set it for 10 seconds. This will make Tasker wait 10 seconds to move on to the next action
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Cancel. For Title: put 'Logged Format Time' without quotes, and have Warn Not Exist checked. This will dismiss that notification we just sent 10 seconds ago
For the second profile, it will do the actual process of sending the variables to the WatchMaker App
We're going to create a Intent Received profile that will check if the specified broadcast intent has been received. For action, put 'android.intent.action.TIME_SET' without quotes. This will check if the TIME_SET intent has been received
Now here's what you need for the actions:
Task -> If. Set the condition to %TIME_FORMAT is SET. This will check if the global variable we defined in the first profile has something in it (this is for in case that you didn't boot up your device to store the value to the global variable so Tasker does not return an error since there is no value in the variable)
Plugin -> AutoTools -> Secure Settings. Like the same as like time, we're going to be finding that system variable, time_12_24. Just do the exact same steps as listed for the last time we defined this action
Task -> If. This time, set the condition to %time_12_24 does not match (!~) to %TIME_FORMAT. This will make Tasker check if the system format variable we just grabbed in the previous action DOES NOT match the previously recorded variable from our first profile. This is necessary to check because if you have automatic update clock enabled in system settings, that TIME_SET intent gets called whenever the phone updates to the network time, and because of this, we do not want Tasker constantly nagging us that the format has been update, despite that the format is the same as before.
Plugin -> WatchMaker -> WM Send Variable. Set the variable to send to %time_12_24, which is the new format that we switched to and just checked for.
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Vibrate. For Title: put 'Time Format Changed' without quotes, and for text, added 'Updated Format to %time_12_24' without quotes. This will notify that you have logged the format and will tell what the format is.
OPTIONAL: Task -> Wait. Set it for 10 seconds. This will make Tasker wait 10 seconds to move on to the next action
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Cancel. For Title: put 'Time Format Changed' without quotes, and have Warn Not Exist checked. This will dismiss that notification we just sent 10 seconds ago
Task -> End If. Close that If stated that we have created so far
Variables -> Variable Set. Set %TIME_FORMAT to %time_12_24. This will override the previously recorded value and place the new one in its place in the variable, %TIME_FORMAT
Task -> Stop. Leave everything else blank. This will make Tasker end the task from here
Task -> Else. Leave everything else blank. This basically says that if that system format variable DOES have something in it. This is necessary to check because
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Vibrate. For Title: put 'Logged Format Time' without quotes, and for text, added 'Log Format: %time_12_24' without quotes. This will notify that you have logged the format and will tell what the format is.
OPTIONAL: Task -> Wait. Set it for 10 seconds. This will make Tasker wait 10 seconds to move on to the next action
OPTIONAL: Alert -> Notify Cancel. For Title: put 'Logged Format Time' without quotes, and have Warn Not Exist checked. This will dismiss that notification we just sent 10 seconds ago
Variables -> Variable Set. Set %TIME_FORMAT to %time_12_24. This records the value we got from AutoTools and stores it in a global variable for us to use later on.
Task -> End If. Close up the main IF statement that surrounds everything.
One final thing! Make sure that your watchface in WM has this method or something similar (WITH the quotes): '{ttime_12_24}' == '24' and '{dh23z}:{dmz}' or '{dh}:{dmz} {da}'. This sets the clock format to 24hr if the tasker value is 24, and switches to 12hr if the value is 12.
Note: You DO NOT have to have items such as he notification and clock method text to display exactly as I have, as I have designed these for my convenience.
