Interop Tools - A versatile registry app for all devices, now on Github

[gus33000]

And as promised, here's the first pre-release of Beta 1.9

Interop Tools Beta 1.9-pre (1.9.303.0 (fbl_prerelease(gustavem).160822-1600))

Notes:

This is a pre-release version, for testing only, since I changed how the NDTK stuff works it may screw up when writing some specific reg values. Please report any bug about that!
The app will support newer versions of Windows 10 Mobile fine by the way.

Change log:

The app is now using a new lib from MS to call the NDTK service, which allows the app to better work with REG_MULTI_SZ and other things.
You can now swipe right to delete stuff in the registry browser.
The app now includes 4 new pages (all work in progress) such as:

• The Command Prompt page (will work for now after disabling the firewall)
• The SSH Account Manager (partially working, everything works but changing some values manually)
• The Keyboard Page (just a dummy ui for now)
• The Default apps page, which lists all apps but doesn't change the defaults for now.

Added a new tweak for continuum idle in the tweaks page.
Improved the cap unlock function to be future proof and dynamic with the available caps on the device.
Added proper support for REG_MULTI_SZs
The app now has a builtin custom Key suggestion bar that sits above the touch keyboard on mobile, when inputting in the key location field in the registry editor. This will be expanded to other fields in the future.
Fixed a couple bugs involving not being able to scroll down in certain pages.
Added old registry designations inside parentheses after registry value types and registry hives.
You can now access the test provider, this will be only available in the pre-releases and doesn't actually edit your registry, it's a test provider for testing purposes only. (Don't report bugs with it )
Some other improvements that I may have forgotten to include here.

Known issues:

The Default Apps page will crash with remote access.
Looks like I forgot to remove some parts of Microsoft UWP Community ToolKit when making that release, don't worry about the fbsdk being thrown in here, it's not used and would only work if I added a fb login page. You can check for yourself on MS own github at what it does.

Tests on 1.9 Beta:
- CMD as SYSTEM Access:
Blank screen, no command prompt, then "A connection attempt failed because the connected party etc."
Sometimes the keyboard icon disappears.
- SSH ACCOUNT MANAGER
You can add an user but you cannot delete it.
On Main Options tab, "User name" it's not clear what it does, because it appears that the user name to login it's still the one from User List.
"Password" changes seems to not have effect and SSH continues to return "Permission denied".

Now, I don't know if they are bugs or I don't understand how to use it..

The CMD and SSH pages are still Work in progress, User name is with what account the ssh shell will run on the phone. CMD will only work if you have the required cmd files in system32 and disabled the firewall for now. As for switching to use a password for ssh, if changing in the dropdown doesn't work, verify that your phone is on the supported list for the system level registry access, if it's a lumia, check if restore ndtk is on. All of this except the firewall part is actually explained in the template section.

The firewall thing was unexpected; I tried \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile: EnableFirewall = 0 but I still receive the "connection attempt failed" thing.

For the TextBox's password I confirm that, sometimes the user-pin registry value it's not updated. After smashed the "return" button and pressed the pencil icon , the value was written; it's not clear to me how to confirm textbox changes (how to trigger the control's event that acutally writes value into registry).

For the firewall this isn't how you turn it off actually, you need to change MPSVC service start value to 4 and reboot, to put it back like normal change it to 2, since it will break deployments when off. To confirm the edition of values, you need to type the write button, aka the button with the pencil.

Okay, with HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\MpsSvc: Start = 4 it works, thanks! And great job!

Hi! Thank you for app. What about full support lumia x50 series?

For now there's still no way of having full support on x50 devices. I'll try to find a way though in the future.

The red banner at the top of the page tells you that for now interop unlock is for lumias only. That's also more detailed in the OP.

why the first and second option in interop unlock can't be activated on lumia 1320

Turn on restore ndtk first, reboot and turn whatever you need after that. This is also explained in the troubleshoot section of the interop unlock page.

You can't turn off any option in the interop unlock page, that's by design (except for the Full FS via MTP), it doesn't work even after another reboot? The first Cap unlock option will btw turn off after each reboot, but that doesn't mean you're not cap unlocked. The second option shouldn't turn off.

I added a tweak to do that (see the glance thread) but as I said reg import is planned.
