I thought creating a thread that shows the various registry hacks might be helpful/useful/contructive/destructive.

Thanks in advance for the contributions!

I am using PHM Registry for my editor.

Get rid of the voicemal icon on the '1' key (3.16+)

The 3.16 rom has added an voicemail icon to '1' key which also caused my skin to look messed up. You can disable it:

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunctio n\CDMA\

set the DWORD value
"EnableVoicemailIcon" = "0"

by default it is set to 1.
