2.5 beta 2 on TMO Dash - Can't create new key under HKLM

[mnadig]

I try to add a key under
HKLM
Comm
EAP
Extension
25
"ValidateServerCert" as dword = 0

and it takes the value, but doesn't show up in the registry.

Note: I successfully edited an existing registry key under HKLM:
HKLM Software HTC Startup WAV

Seems similar to this problem that was never reproduced it seems (topic # 8661 - won't let me paste U R L since my first post - just search for HKLM under Total Commander Pocket, thread titled "discovered some bugs where are icons of editor? thanks"

thanks!

I have just tried that on my Windows Mobile 5 device - the key can be created just fine!

Make sure you write ValidateServerCert without the double quotes around it.

If it still doesn't work, it may be a restriction of your device (access denied by phone operator).

Thank you for the quick reply.

I am running WM6 if it matters.

I was able to add the key using another tool MobileRegistryEditor - but it runs on my pc and modifies the registry remotely somehow. So, perhaps if it is due to a locked device issue, this circumvents it??

Best,
