Here is the solution...

Hi Mix, it's Mix answering (yes, I'm the same person...)...

First of all I would like to thank you ALL the people which knew the solution and were fighting to answer to my doubt...

You were so many, I wonder why the message has been read times and so many answers arrived: 0 (yes, ZERO).

Anyway, I came across the solution myself, by chance...

The problems seems being the smartphone versions of WM5 being protected against file modifications. This protection extends also to some files execution and to certificate installations (hence some problems may arise when connecting to an Exchange Server for syncronization).

Some tools are needed to remove this protection, and some experience of registry modification is required too (I will not help anyone beside what is in this message and I take no responsability for any mistakes and/or troubles you may produce or face).

First of all you need a special version of RegEdit (the tool from PHM): you should find an HTC digitally signed copy of it called RegEditSTG.exe.

Look around for it: there are many forums around which do hold a copy of it.

Place it in your phone's memory, not on the MicroSD card...

With this tool you should change the following values:

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 2 => 1 (RAPI)

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 16 => 40 (Cert)

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001017 = 128 => 144 (?)

The first is the value you will find, the second is the value you should enter. The third line has a question mark because someone says it should be made, someone not... It's up to you. I made it.

Then you should find another tool (with the same above method) called SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe which has to be run on your desktop PC with the phone already connected with USB (and possibly with ActiveSync not in the middle of a sync...).

Once you run this, you will get a message that the unlock took place (if not, it may be the first operations did not complete well).

Disconnect your phone from the USB cable and power cycle it (switch it off and then on again).

Opla'... the phone is not APPLICATION UNLOCKED and you will be able to move file around the directories as I was looking to when I first posted my message.

Now I have a very quick Start Menu, as I wanted.

Please, be aware that this operation hacks the security policies of WM5 and then any other application which may be dangerous can now run on your phone.

If you wish to stay on the safe side, it could be useful to restore the registry settings to their original values, but I do not know if this could cause other problems, since I didn't on my phone.

I actually double check every single file by myself before launching it and I do not run anything which I'm not sure it is safe.

So, pay attention... (you have been warned...).

Hope this helps someone else out there.

Ciao
[HTC Startrek] vbi:
Thanks for the tips mate! I was searching around for the same problem.

Can a hard reset put all the files back as in the old WM2003? I'm asking that 'cause if you look at the windows directory, many exe and dll files are repeated, with a different code. I guessed they are for the many different languages the phone support and the code is the country code. Maybe when you switch from one language to another those files are renamed so you have the correct exe and dll for the language you need...

If I can erase all the files I don't need (I will never change the language or maybe have only italian and english) I can save lot of space.

Am I wrong? Was that ever tried before?
[HTC Startrek] mix:
;-) I knew...

In order:

- Yes, I suppose a hard reset of the device completely restores the original factory settings, hence, the device will appear as "brand new".

- You're right: all the localized files present there are just to be able to swithc to other languages (maybe following user's settings and maybe also following user's SIM settings too...).

- Erasing the unused files may appear as a "space saving" job. It is not. First of all you will not be able to remove ROM resident files, but provided you could be able to do this, you will not be able to use ROM space as you intend...

Finally then, it's completely unuseful to try to remove them, just a waste of time trying...

Ciao
[HTC Startrek] vbi:
Thanks Michele.

Are you sure the windows directory is in ROM?

I always tought ROM was only to store the "disk" image when you hard reset the device. I was so for the Qtek S100.
[HTC Startrek] mix:
Yes it is. On the fact that it is then copied into RAM, well, this is a tecnique which was used up to WM2003 SE devices.

Starting from WM5 devices MS somewhat changed the behaviour of the whole system, hence I'm not then so sure.

Indeed, I have never been sure of anything, beside death, so you can imagine...

I'm not really so "expert".

Having used an MPx220 for over one year (with all its limitations, but exploiting it very much), using a WM5 device now is a much more relaxed experience (faster, more realiable and less troubly in terms of memory).

Just MHO

Hi all,

I've looked everywhere and I can't be the only one who wants this.....

Is there not a way to swap the placement of the back key ala LG G2? It's driving me nuts and is the only thing that is keeping this phone from being perfect (for me) can ANYONE please lend a helping hand?

Thanks

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razamataz:
Never!!!! Lol, I hate that its on the left side. I hold my phone mostly in my right hand and hate how I now need to stretch my hand across to back arrow. This is one area I really do believe Samsung got it right. It's more natural on the right side of the phone. Even if you strongly disagree , at least do what LG has done and give me the option to make it how I want it. If I want to be told how something should be without the option to change it I may as well have a iPhone!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razamataz:
I don't think this app allows you to change the placement of the soft keys does it? I don't see anything in the description that implies that, more meant to just hide the keys.

Yeah, it replaces the nav bar and let's you choose between a bunch of other different themed nav bars. I just can't get it to work without its quickbar feature/autohide.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjgowtham:
Hello guys. I am learning developmental things, i am experimenting with my phone to learn new things. I am learning a lot from searching but certain things i think i dont know the proper keyword to use. I ve been stuck without the answer for a long time. So i thought i would ask here

I had motorola defy before my xperia z. Defy had something called bootmenu which let me switch on adb while booting a ROM. Now i have xperia z, its bootloader unlocked, a rom cooked by my own which is in bootloop. It doesnt have bootmenu to do like i did for defy. How do i switch on adb from the phone's side? I have setup adb perfectly on my computer.

My ROM goes into bootanimation but adb doesnt seem to be switched on in the phone' side.

when i type "adb logcat log" it is stuck at "waiting for device " while the bootanimation goes on into bootloop
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjgowtham:
i will answer this myself

1. There is always no problem with your phone if the device has got past the bootlogo and entered the boot animation

2. If adb doesnt detect the device,use latest adb from sdk tools

3.If it says unauthorized/offline then enable access to the computer or disable adb secure

One other inquiry, if installing KK on clean IE full wipe and install kernal and keeps on rebooting at samsung logo, any suggestions
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] FFTony:
1. That depends on what you want. I know a lot of people like lean kernel. I am using CivZ and have no issues, but I have yet to really start messing with it.

2. Someone with better knowledge will have to answer.

3. Your phone probably does not like that kernel, that or you got a bad download. Thus the bootloop.

There is no absolute answer to your question OP. Different kernels will perform differently on different user's devices due to differences in how you use the device. What has the best battery life for you might not have the best battery life for another user - the same is true for the reverse. I suggest you try both kernels and make your own decision.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jornflag:
Hi guys.

I´m very new to this site, never rooted a phone, or nothing of the sorts.

However.

I´ve got an Xperia S, and I´d like to investigate the opportunity to have it cleaned and refitted with a naked android install. Kinda like the Google Nexus phones. Is that possible? Or do one have to use one of the custom roms? I want this, to get rid of the space the sony-gui and programs uses on my phone, as ram is getting short, and I just like the "naked" feeling it would give. :)

Any info would be awesome.

Thanks guys :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
You mean the Vanilla skin. As far as I know, You will have to install a custom ROM for it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jornflag:
The Vanilla skin, ok. Pardon my ignorance, but where can I get this, and how do I install it? And a custom rom, is that something on top of the existing sony-gui?

Is it possible to wipe the phone clean, and install stock android on it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Go through XDA, You will find everything here, regarding what is custom ROM, how to install it and necessary precautions. And do read and re-read again, as You are new to this.

Also, if You look, You can find the everything in forum. The ROM's are available here: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-s/s-development

Check for the AOSP one's, those have Vanilla skin.

Custom ROM usually replace the software entirely, and it is not on top of 'sony-gui.'
