Hi,
as the title says I'm wondering if it is possible to delete keys from the registry in WP8.1. If so, are there any restrictions to certain keys and what are the requirements to do so?
Thanks in advance,

There is lot of restriction to EDIT/DELETE registry on WP.
There is no way to achieve full permission to modify registry.
You can do it on "Custom ROM" / modifying ACL's.
Custom ROM is only possible if "Boot-loader" is Unlocked.
At least you have to mention your device name,certain reg keys to get better reply/Answers.

Hey,
thanks for your answer!
Actually the question is more like "is this possible in principle"?
But let me make an example: I have an huawei ascend w1 with wojtasxdas custom rom.
The registry keys I'm interested in, are all subkeys of HKCR, so for example I want to delete HKCR/.aif completely.
Would this be possible on my ascend w1 with custom rom? Would it be possible on any device?
Flashing a completely new ROM is not an option since some of the keys I want to delete are not added before some apps are installed; so I need to really modify the currently existent registry on the device.

Dears,
anyone able to enable the hidden GPS, edit HTC homeplug, add disconnect button, etc working on the new rom ?
After I edit it, it seems to reset back to original state after soft reset.
can anyone give me some advise.
TIA
Registry tweaks work perfect with latest DOPOD D810 ROM,
but only if you wait about 30 seconds after changing the values - before Softreset. The OS need a little time to write the registry back to the device.
Seems to be a common WM5 issue.

Or, alternatively, just keep the power button depressed and answer Yes to the question. This will make sure everything is flushed back to the flash ROM, as has also been pointed out in my related article.
Thanks all, it's working as it said.
BTW, anyone here in Hong Kong using 3 3G ?
It seems the old mod to able to access mobile.three.com.hk is not working.
Anyone can give me advise on where in the registry to detect the browser version ?
The previous mod as below which is not working now with the new firmware.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent
edit the "default" string as below:
SANYO-S103/1.000 UP.Browser/7.0.2.1.sn.1.222 (GUI) MMP/2.0
hey guys,
just flashed my unlocked cingular treo 750 with the new wm6 row and was wondering if there was a way to perform an application unlock...
I have a few apps that are unsigned and it won't let me run them... it's extremely annoying..
any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks paypalbid but it didn't work... Did you get it to work on your treo?
just checking.....you downloaded the one for PPC instead of Smartphone right ?
What applications are you trying to run that required the phone to be app unlocked ?
Since i upgraded to WM6 i have not had problems with app unlock
If all fail why dont you just edit the registry your self by:
HKLM>Security>Policies>Policies
value = 0000101B DWORD = 1

well for now I'm just doing a few tests with some app I developed and it just won't let me run it because it's unsigned..
I installed the cab file that automatically adds that key, restarted the phone and then I made sure it was there, and it is..
any ideas why it's not working?
try this:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies001001 has a value of 1, NOT 2

tried that and tried changing the value of 00001005 from 16 to 40 as suggested on another site but it still didn't work...
this is really annoying... can you guys give me a list of unsigned apps that I can try just to be sure it's not my own app that isn't working?
Download Wm5 Storage which is the last application on the list, it requires app unlock

well I'm not sure if it worked or not... it installed but I don't see any new apps
unsigned apps
The Hermes Tweaker 1.1 has a check box that allows you to run unsigned apps. You might need that if I'm understanding what you wrote.
Hi,
I loaded up Jack_V3 ROM today and he pointed to your page to download the Manill HD cab to update the icons he used.
I notice above a similar message to the problem I am having below but I am installing the full package.
i am having a probelm with changing the Icons used back to the stock ones. I downloaded Touch-IT blackstone manilla but I get an error reporting:
the program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions.
I have searched for hours and also tried Multiple Registry changes and HTweakC, SurrealNetworksAppUnlock etc.
Anyone, please shed some light as I have a call logged with my provider to get the phone unlocked. Is that the issue. PLEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASE.

OK. Trying to go easy on this phone and not treat it too much like a windows box. Seem the more I refrain the more posts I have.
Seems that the other ROM had manilla.exe running. Killed that with the phone service and some others and the cab installed fine.
Hope that helps someone else. Hats off to the Developer.
Does anyone have a cab installer to change the clock to black on white? instead of the white on black.
Thanks guys
Hi, I want to modify the registry with the hack for the SMS wake up, and the screen off/in-call to make my diamond better for my use.
Never done this before though, and don't want to brick it!
Have downloaded Total Commander for the job, is there anything I specifically need to do, in order, to make these changes, do I need to unlock the phone in some way??
Thanks for your help/patience!

Step by step explanation there - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398265
Yes, this is the list I have seen, but, do I need to unlock the device in some way first before making any of the registry changes??
Thanks!
No you don`t have to unlock your device / rom ... just edit the registry
Thanks, excellent news ... going to give it a try.
like the title says i need to edit the registry for the bluetooth quality link
i need to know what steps i need to do this. i have mango and all the updates, i really dont want to install another rom really, unless there is something to gain that im not aware of. i have bootloader version 5.10.xxxx.
i have been mildly reading, but am tired cuz of finals week. so if anyone can help me out that would be great thankssssssssss.
ok i managed to downgrade and install hspl. now just waiting for intrinsic rom to dl. can anyone help me on how to change registry values.
direct download of TouchXperience's Registry Editor v1.2.0.0 -> here
note.
that registry edit will be included in the next release.
for some reason, it didn't cook in.
Well you just need a tool to "unlock" your registry.
First make sure that your phone is unlocked (any unlock should work)
I have the dev unlock myself.
[Edit] I have used the registry editor suggested above too, and that one works best atm.
Tried the one I linked above but it's not supported in Mango it appears.
Hey, my hardware keys are malfunctioning and I'm wondering which rom lets you disable them and enable soft keys? I know some AOKP ones do, but I'd rather someone just let me know which rom!
You don't even need to install a different ROM for that, just follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832638
All you need is root, a root browser and a few minutes. Good luck!
Thanks but that just enable's soft keys. I also want to disable hard keys. On my HTC one X I had a rom that did that but, not sure where it's on with the galaxy s
You could try this to disable the keys.
