Re: Looking for an old custom WM5 ROM w/unlocked registry

There was, but unfortunately, it was for Titan only....

However, that's no big deal in wm6.1, because I can get into the registry easily and swap out the "welcome.exe" for a blank file. I can bypass screen calibration and use the phone. Sprint just doesn't have a clue how to activate it!! They claim it's flashed to cricket - and when I hit *2 and it says "welcome to cricket", well, it's kinda hard to argue with them....

So I have to flash a wm5 ROM back onto the phone. And I did: useing the stock sprint ROM.

BUT...it's the WM 5 stock sprint build that WILL NOT let me edit the registry!!!!! I cannot get in thru CERegEdit like I do with WM6.1. Even after I tell CERegEdit to unlock the registry - and it tells me that it has successfully unlocked it - it still says "access denied".
(BTW - that is NOT the case with WM6.1)

Which is why I'm hoping someone somewhere has another wm5 build that WILL allow me to get in and bypass the dang align screen. (I'm sooooo close to activating this phone...)
