I recently started to use SASHIMI heavily to customize my HD after a ROM flash. Congrats and credits to bengalih who did an awesome job.
One option i really missed in SASHIMI is to be able to specify specific values for custom registry export, so i decided to modify the script to my needs. From what i've read in various threads/forums other people wants to do the same, so i'll share it here for everyone who wants to try.

The mod allows additional parameters in REGEXPORT.INI:
key1=<yourkeypath1>
key2=<yourkeypath2>,<value1>,<value2>,<value3>, ... ,<valueN>
key3=<yourkeypath3>,*

key1 is the traditional way of exporting registry keys as its already implemented. It exports this key including all values/subkeys.
key2 specifies a key, plus the value names you want to export (value1-valueN). Value names are CASE SENSITIVE (!), if they dont match you end up with an empty key.
key3 specifies a key, plus ALL values, but WITHOUT subkeys.

WARNING: DO NOT mix filtered (like in key2, key3 examples) and unfiltered keys (key1) in the same section, as this will lead to missing values. If you need to do this, split them into separate sections.


examples from my own usage:

[Opera vibration]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Defaults,Vi brationEnabled

[power+backlight settings]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\C ontrol\Power\Timeouts,BattSuspendTimeout,BattSuspe ndTimeoutSave,ACSuspendTimeout,ACSuspendTimeoutSav e
key2=HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight,Batt eryTimeout,BatteryTimeoutUnchecked,ACTimeoutUnchec ked



If you want to give it a shot here are the downloads:

CustomRegistryExport.txt
SASHIMI.mscr

Nice mod, m'lady!

I hope bengalih will consider it for future SASHIMI versions

Great job!

Very Very helpfull!


Thanks a'lot!

well... just tried this (kept a backup of the original mscr). The only key it exported was key9. It took what felt like 5min to get past the "mysettings.............." line.

[MySettings]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKLM\Ident
key2=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock
key3=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Vmail\UserProvidedNumber1
key4=HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications
key5=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Devices
key6=HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts
key7=HKCU\Software\HTC\People\OwnerInfo
key8=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration
key9=HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila,Weather.CityList,Weather.ServerURLOverride,Locale,Weather_Focus,Weather.Fahrenheit,Weather.PostRunFirst
key10=HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1
key11=HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager
key12=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher

And Generated this .reg file

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\]
"Weather.CityList"="37384,30914,31106,30824"
"Weather.ServerURLOverride"="http://weather.conflipper.com/htcweather/weathertranslate.php?ac=CONFLIPPER&locCode=%25ls&version= 1&device=innovation"
"Locale"="en-US"
"Weather_Focus"="United States"
"Weather.Fahrenheit"=dword:00000001

Notepad shows that all on 1 line w/ carriage returns as open squares.
Sashimi.mscr is in the BIN folder along w/ the .txt file. The weather entries are the main reason I need this mod. I think I did everything right, but looks like I missed something.

congrats ... you found a bug
Notepad showing only 1 line is normal, it cant handle lines terminated with LF only.

Is a fix in the works?

Hello ProfEngr,

I'am exporting a lot of keys with Dotfreds taskmanager.... with a simple text editor I place all of them in 1 Reg file..... and afterwards I import only 1 reg file with all the keys in it ...

Not really a solution, but a work-around

thanks, I'll try that in the interim.

I do that with normal SASHIMI too. I setup several registry settings in a text ini file, mysettings1 for registrations and program setup, mysettings2 for CHome setup like weather, used icons, launchers shortcuts etc, mysettings3 for device setup like email, ISP, bluetooth, advanced config etc and so on. So i can restore everything after a hard reset or flash, or only one set of registry at any time. From time to time i do a custom backup of the current registry.

I'll look after that sometime next week
