Windows Mobile Registry Editor 1.1

Posted by Mike Temporale in "SOFTWARE" @ 04:00 PM

http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx

"Mobile Registry Editor is an application that can be used to edit the registry of your Pocket PC or Smartphone (Windows Mobile device). With it you can remotely edit the registry using your desktop keyboard and mouse as opposed to using your stylus/keypad on your PDA or phone. It's built as a Windows application which has been modeled after Regedit (with a few extra features such as favorites, value size, column sorting etc...) It has been tested with my PocketPC and Smartphone on Windows XP/2000 and requires the .NET Framework 1.1 to run."

This is a desktop based registry editor for your Windows Mobile device - both Pocket PC and Smartphone. ;) This version adds support for creating/deleting, and renaming keys and values, among other things. If you're looking for a single registry editor for all of your Windows Media needs, you might want to check this out.

PC Based Mobile Registry Editor

Posted by Mike Temporale in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:30 AM

http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx

"As its name might suggest Mobile Registry Editor is an application that can be used to edit the registry of Windows Mobile devices. I wrote it because I wanted an application that would allow me to browse the registry on my Smartphone from my PC. With it you can browse the registry, edit values, export keys and save your favorite keys. Features such as renaming, creating and deleting keys/values aren�t on the top of my priority list so I�ve left them out for now."

I don't know how useful this application will be if it's missing the ability to create, delete, and rename keys and values. :? If you're interested in trying out a PC-based registry editor, and for whatever reason, you don't want to use Smartione, then you might want to check out this app. :wink:

Resco Explorer 2003 5.0 Now Has a Registry Editor

Now they aren't making a big deal about it yet. In fact there is no mention of it on the product page at all! Thanks to an astute source we find that the new version does indeed have a registry editor add on just like the Pocket PC version has always had. You have to go here to get it. The download link on the product page doesn't even get you the new version yet. I'm sure that their front page will catch up with their back page but until then you can check this out now. I have already downloaded it and it is a pleasure to use. :)

Free Registry Editor with Source Code

Posted by Mike Temporale in "SOFTWARE" @ 07:00 AM

http://chrison.net/CommentView,guid,8c8c04bf-2cd0-44ad-ac59-11f93a5f335f.aspx

I'm not sure how many of us have a use for a Smartphone based registry editor anymore. Smartione has really changed how I access the Smartphone Registry. Regardless, Chris Wille has released a free registry editor including source code, for the Smartphone. I haven't installed it, but by the looks of things, I think it's safe to say that you'll need Windows Mobile 2003 to run it. You can download the registry editor here. 8)

Edit The Smartphone Registry With PHM RegEdit

Posted by David McNamee in "SOFTWARE" @ 03:30 PM

http://www.phm.lu/Products/Smartphone/RegEdit/

Frequently, there are some advanced customizations to your Smartphone that can only be done by editing the registry. The registry is a database of configuration information that determines how the phone runs, images that are displayed, sounds that go off, et cetera. Many of these things are configurable using the "Settings" screen on your Smartphone. That is definitely the preferred way of doing things.

There are times, though, when you just need to get under the hood. Smartphones do not have a built-in program to make changes in the registry, so you need a registry editor. PHM RegEdit is a popular tool that has been around for Pocket PC, H/PC, and now Smartphone. PHM RegEdit allows you to explore the phone's registry, and make changes where appropriate.

Editing the registry is not for everyone. Mistakes made while editing the registry can turn your Smartphone into a pretty paperweight, so think twice before jumping in and making changes. Also, make sure you backup your Smartphone before making any changes in the registry.

That being said, look for us to begin posting tips and tricks that do require registry edits. PHM RegEdit will come in handy!
