Relocation of Pocket IE cache to storage card

[CES1951]

I am running the LVSW 3.30.2.1 version of WM6. The hack for WM5 in the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...ermes_Registry) does not work in this version. Does anyone know how to relocate the IE cache to a storage card in WM6?

Thanks!

This hack from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry (1/2 way down the page) does work for Hermes variants on WM5/WM6 such as Cingular/The New AT&T/AT&T 8525 (my backup phone) and Softbank X01HT (my primary phone) (I made a registry entry for it but of course, I use my login name such as \Storage Card\LoginName\Profiles\Temporary Internet Files, etc).:

PocketIE Cache in storage card

Create these folders:
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Temporary Internet Files
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Cookies
\Storage Card\Pocket IE\History

Add the following registry keys, string data type:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Exp lorer\Shell Folders]
"Cache"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Temporary Internet Files"
"Cookies"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\Cookies"
"History"="\Storage Card\Pocket IE\History"

You then would need to do soft-reset to get the new folders to work.

Custel's WM6 has HTCustom (and other's like Pimp My Black) have options to change the location of PIE cache to the MicroSD card.

Just run HTCustom
Select the Pocket IE tab
and choose SD Card (or Main Memory)
Save will SoftReset your device

Be careful with the D-Pad option on the same screen. Some people don't like the way that changes the behavior of PIE as well as message reading.

. . . I made a registry entry for it but of course, I use my login name such as \Storage Card\LoginName\Profiles\Temporary Internet Files, etc. . . .

Thanks, crazynut. The trick is in the registry string. This ROM includes reg strings as in the wiki and your reply, with the default path "\windows\Profiles\guest\*" I verified that that is the location where the cache files were stored and then tried changing that to "storage card\Profiles\guest\*" and modifying folder names on the storage card to match followed with a soft reboot. It didn't work, either. Could you spell out what you did in more detail?

N00b download one of the tweak tools either pimp my black V2.0 or Htcusom 1.4 and it will set the reg for you and your done.... no reg hacks no nothing just some clicking on the screen...

It works as in the wiki. I am not sure what Registry Editor you are using. You should be able to use Total Commander or a similiar product. I think a lot of people like PHM Registry Editor. I use Kilmist Registry Editor since I got my company to pay for it.

That being said, AustinSync said in another post that you can use one of the tweaking tools to click the location to the storage card (my experiencde with doing that tells me that they just do not let you choose which folder on the storage card).

Good luck.
Cheers
