Reg edit for Scroll Bar Width
 
New rom's scroll bar width is very very tiny, cant use the pad of my thumb to scroll up/down.

I don't want to have to install Advanced Config, nor Diamond Tweak.

What registry edit can I use?

It doesn't actually adjust the scrollbar size, but it affects the size of the scrollbar none the less. Go to the following location and adjust the DWORDS listed,
[HKLM\System\GWE]
cxHScr = 20
cyHScr = 13
cxVScr = 13
cyVScr = 20
Now, what they do is control the size of the arrows used on the Horizontal and Vertical scrollbars.
cx = width
cy = height
The larger the arrow, the larger the scrollbar. So a higher number for cxVScr will make the vertical scrollbar wider to accommodate the new width size of the arrow button. Whereas a higher number for cyVScr will only make the scroll buttons taller.

Hope that makes sense. :)

Just took a guess, 25 was exactly where I wanted it before.

Thanks a lot.

For those wondering, 25 is perfect for thumb pad scrolling on the bar.

Just be careful, last I heard Advanced Config didn't play well with CDMA phones.

Exactly. It was a 5 sec reg edit, it's quicker anyway.
