Changing the Registry
Introduction
Changing the registry can be a dangerous thing to do - do not make these changes below unless you know what you are doing and that you have a way to revert the changes if they do not do what you expect.
If any of the changes listed below do not work then do a soft reset of your phone. Many programs only pick up their registry settings when they start up and do not notice changes while they are running. A soft reset ensures that every program restarts, and picks up any changes that have been made.
After you make a registry change, be sure to wait approx. 30 seconds and/or place your device into standby mode a few times before doing a soft reset. This will give your device enough time to register changes.
Registry Editors
There are a lot of registry editors for PocketPC out there, if you don't have one try one of these:
- PHM Registry Editor or try a Temporary alternate download site (Free)
- Total Commander (Free)
- Resco Registry

HTC Wizard Tweaks
Browse: Windows Mobile 5 > HTC Wizard > HTC Wizard Tweaks
This list should contain only those tweaks specific to the HTC Wizard mobile phone. Duplicates already listed in WM5 Tweaks Other have been deleted from this list.
Editing the Registry requires an application such as PHM Registry Edit or Total Commander. The use of Total Commander is slightly non-intuitive:
- Launch Total Commander.
- Go to \\ (at the very top).
- Open \\\registry\HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring (for example).
Note: all "dword" values below are in decimal notation (not hexadecimal), unless otherwise specified.
Performance boost
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\MSFlash\FATFS\Filters] "DataCacheSize"=dword:00008192
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\MSFlash\FATFS] "Flags"=dword:00000040
Note: there is a small chance that "Flags" is actually 28 in decimal form, not 40 (= 28 hex).
Change location of My Documents folder
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services] "FileSyncPath"=string:\Storage Card\My Documents
Make touchpad more sensitive
(Dont change the value less than 7000, other than that increase it as you feel like it)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel] "PressureThreshold"=dword:18000
