well, I do like phm notepad, but I just used my pc's notepad.
for registry stuff on the phone I always use dotfred's taskmgr. it has never let me down yet. and as I said earlier it has an option to associate itself with .reg's so you can just open them on the phone using any file explorer and it will ask if you want to import.

So you use notepad to open the .reg. I did but it is just invalid characters. How do I add a line? Just add a space?

nevermind wordpad was the problem

which notepad? windows xp? vista? I'm not sure it matters.

there is a button on the keyboard labled "Enter", that will create a new line[/scarcasm] lol just playing lol.

For some reason wordpad opened the file and it was all invalid characters. Notepad had no problems. I dont understand that but now it is all ok.

Just use sashimi to export regs settings. Edit the regexport.ini file and put in the keys you want. See the manual for details. That way it's automated. And if you decide in 2 months you want to change the settings, you can run the custom export (registry export quicklink)

someone @ xda modified the script to do that, but I find it best to make your own mini reg backup script (mortscript's not so tuff) for variable settings, otherwise I just hard-code the regs I never want/need to change after thier set how I want.

Didn't you guys see this reply right after mine? Just overwrite your script with the one from this link and voila, single export anything you want.

Also thank you so much to shaggylive, this was a lifesaver.

ok, my bad. didn't notice a quote so figured it was for something else.

Lines of thought get broken on here alot.

Stupid question, but what does the OP mean when they say "back up" a file and then export. I've been going in using dotfred regedit and I see the export option so i've exported them to the auto folder, but I don't know how i'm supposed to be backing these entries up.

**shaggylive** · #10 (**permalink**) 10-08-2009, 02:09 PM

I think it was just double talk. starting the sentence with the task at hand (backup) and using the program terminology (export) to complete the task.

the 'backup' portion of shashimi is different, and is useful for data & regs that change frequently. otherwise if they should always be the way you set them, just use the export to auto folder method.
