Hi all !

I tried to unlock extended ROM of my P3600 - but like another user in thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...n+extended+rom - described - after changing the registry keys and soft reset the device - the registry keys show the original values and extended ROM is still hidden.

Would you be so kind and describe how unlocking the extended ROM worked with your device ?

Thanks in advance !

In another thread I read (don't recall which one) that you need to exit (not minimize) the registry editor prior to the soft reset, otherwise the changes in the registry won't stick.
Maybe this helps?

Hi folks,
AFAIK in my opinion it is not necessary to close active applications instead of minimize, simply turn off the device and wait about 20 seconds before soft reset cause wm05 needs this time to flush the modify into the registry, or in alternative soft reset via a software instead stylus+hole. This is a known caratteristict of wm05 if you do a google search you'll find many threads about taht.

Hope this help, if I'm not wrong...

Many thanks - waiting about 20 seconds before soft reset worked fine. Now the extended ROM is visible. Still read only but i am optimistic.

By doing this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ EXT_FLASHDRV\FATFS]
"EnableCache"=dword:00000001

Now i can del the extROM files, and write what ever i want, but when i do a softReset every thing is erased and the extROM files re-apear.
Anyone know what to do...
