View Full Version : Registry Change will not hold after soft reset

I just bought an AT&T Kaiser and modified the registry to hide contacts on my SIM card (HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\ShowSIM changed to a 0 value). It works immediately after change, but if I have to reset the phone (even after a period of several hours) the change reverts. I have made other changes however, and they hold through soft-reset. Any Ideas?

Do follow my articles in the Wiki / in the General forum, I've explained the reason (and cure) for this SEVERAL times, in SEVERAL of them. ALWAYS power down (suspend) the phone before resetting at least once. This will make sure the Registry changes are flushed back to the flash storage.

I apologize...I've been looking for a day or so and must not have put in the right search words. Thanks for your help.

This doesn't work for the Sim Contact's Registry tweak, unless I'm doing it wrong... Did it work for you Benyork?

unfortunately it did not work...actually the registry reverted on power-up, that is even before the soft-reset. Something is odd about this particular key.
