[XAP - Source] Samsung Registry Editor

---

A lot of you guys have been asking about how to read/write/add values to the registry on Samsung devices, so I wrote a small app showing how to use the Samsung native DLLs to do so.

Please notice that you can use this app called RegistryViewer that works on all WP7 devices [read only for now, but useful to discover the registry] here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5&postcount=19

This app is limited too compared to the HTC ones, unfortunately a big part of the registry is restricted for read/write.

Nice! I have a samsung

There is no way to list the reg keys right?

tried to read some values, but all i get is gibberish...

how can i build the solution i get a missing reference error for "using Microsoft.Phone.InteropServices;"

Yes you can, here is a registry viewer to list the reg keys http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5&postcount=19

This is natural when you try to access restricted areas in the registry or you try to read a DWORD while it is a String and vice versa!

For the InteropServices look at the requirements in my blog post here http://www.martani.net/2010/12/readi...7-devices.html

Here is a new version of my app that support Samsung device.

Perhaps we can combine this with the registry tweaks to create an on device app limit remover. I am sifting through your code and am gonna combine it if I can figure it out correctly.
This should work.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg\In stall]
"MaxUnsignedApp"=dword:7fffffff ; Allow max number of unsignd apps

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"PortalUrlProd"=""
"PortalUrlInt"=""

I have finally gotten this working correctly. I will post my results however I will not post the product because I know it will inevidetly support piracy.

I have gotten it compiled, however it is not reading or writing to the registry properly.
