How to backup & restore bluetooth settings
 
I was both pleased to see that MightyMike has released a new 6.1 ROM and apprehensive at needing to set the phone up once I flashed. Using Sashimi and SPB Backup's "ROM Upgrade Mode" most of that work is relatively painless, if time-consuming. What still makes my heart sink is getting my phone paired with each of the 7 bluetooth devices that I need to pair it with.

Is there some good way to backup bluetooth settings independent of a full system backup then restore them? Where do these settings live in the first place?

Might look deeper into Sashimi's ablities. I think it can do that via XML along with email and wifi. It's under advanced tools. I might be wrong, but I thought there was bluetooth in there too.

I'll have a look. It would be great if it were in there.

Well, I've dug around in Sashimi and can't find anything to do with Bluetooth. I can't even find anything called "Advanced Tools," for that matter.

I think i got this from the SD Config \ UC Settings \ ProvisionXML thread. But i can't remember who posted it. See if this helps:

The bluetooth device pairing information is located in the registy (HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/Device). All you have to do is backup this registy portion and restore after a flash or a hard reset. You can even automate this using SDConfig.txt.
1. Download CeRegEditor and install on your PC.
2. Connect your devide via ActiveSync and fire up CeRegEditor. Locate HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/Device, right click on "Device" and select "Export". Save as bluetooth.cereg or any other name on your Desktop.
3. Within the CeRegEditor menu, select "Conversion/REG -> CAB" and convert bluetooth.cereg into bluetooth.cab.
4. Add the CAB that you have just created to your SDConfig.txt and you're done.

Damn I was wondering this for the longest time! Thanks man! I was so tired of repairing after each flash.
