i think most of you x01ht users in japan are aware that softbank issued a new rom update that has the new open.softbank.ne.jp password hard-coded as part of the rom image and so there's no way to extract it via extended rom or otherwise (it's not in the preconfig cabs/xmls either). they've also announced that after april 1, the old password which most of in japan are currently using will no longer work so we either upgrade to the new softbank rom or we can't access the open network.
anyway, i've been fiddling with this all night and i think i have a solution that i've tested on a couple of different roms but i'm hoping you guys can give it a try as well so that we can call this a solution to the problem. basically, i made the assumption that the password was somewhere hidden and encrypted in the registry though i had no idea where so basically all i did was do a registry dump with a clean install of the new sb rom, went into connections and deleted the softbank connection, then did another registry dump. finally, i did a compare of the before and after using windiff, figured out what changed and i ended up with the attached two reg files. one adds "SoftBank" as one of the connections (hklm.reg) and the other is the encrypted password (hkcu.reg). you need to import these using the registry plug-in that comes with resco explorer (just dl the trial) as that's what i used and it seemed to work. also, after you do the imports, MAKE SURE you power off (not reset) and then power back on. sometimes the registry settings don't stick if you simply reboot.
to really verify this works, you should first go in and delete your existing SoftBank connection in settings->connections tab->connections->manage existing connections (under internet). if you're not confident then go ahead do a backup beforehand or you can just run the sb extended rom again if you can't get it to work. i've tried this with the sb rom as well as an i-mate rom and it's working perfectly...i'll test it with a couple other tomorrow as well. if this works for you guys, i'll go ahead and make it into a cab file.
update: okay, i've gone ahead and made it into a cab so you don't have to muck around with importing reg files. so just download the cab if you want to run a simple cab install. the zip file contains the reg files if you want to manually import yourself. i've tested both and they work fine. again, i must emphasize that you power off after installing it and not just soft reset. try it out and let me know.
FOR THOSE OF YOU DOING CLEAN INSTALLS:
i didn't realize this but when you do a clean install, you still have to install a couple of the sb extended roms before you run my cab. specifically, you need to run PP_ConnVKK_1.33.761.1.CAB and Provisioning.exe to set up the device to even be able to accept the new password/settings. run PP_ConnVKK_1.33.761.1.CAB first and then Provisioning.exe...now once you run provisioning.exe, you'll find that it automatically creates the old SoftBank connection for you under internet->manage existing connections with the OLD password. go ahead and delete this connection, reboot (optional) and then run my cab (new sb settings.cab). power down and up again and it should work.
just to be sure i did a file compare of the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\SoftBank] "Entry" and "DevCfg" keys/entries with the old SoftBank setting active and with the new SoftBank settings active and the file compare showed that the contents were completely different. i was worried that maybe somehow the system was just somehow reviving the old password and not actually using the new one but this does not appear to be the case.
UPDATE:
after some more experimenting, it seems that the cab just restores the sb connection with whatever username/pass that you had installed previously. if you delete the the new opensoftbank username connection and then run the cab, it restores the opensoftbank username/password. if you delete the old "open" username connection, it restores that. very strange since the file compare shows that this registry dump (taken from new rom with new settings) is significantly different than a dump taken from a rom with the old settings yet it is somehow restoring the old settings. thanks for looking into this but for now, i think we have to say that this isn't working. so it seems that password is not simply stored in the registry. it must be in some hidden file that this registry dump somehow activates. in any case, i'll keep working over the coming weeks. sorry for getting everyone's hopes up.
Wow, I think that is great news for every Softbank customer!
Thanks it worked for me. I guess I will find out in April if it will work. I will cross my fingers.
Great job!!
You are the man! Great!!
thanks for checking! are you saying you're unsure if the file actually contains the NEW password and not the old one? well, it's definitely the new password as i created these files using only the new rom, a reg editor and a file compare tool so the old password never entered the picture.
you can actually run this exercise yourself and just repeat the steps i did if you want to be sure as the methodology is pretty simple. all i did was find where the encryped passwd was stored in registry and just imported it over to a different rom as is, encryption in tact. i've made no attempt to hack the actual passwd--we still have no idea what it is but as long as we can use the new settings, finding out what the passwd actually is unnecessary.

i haven't tried this yet, but if it works for you using the new ap opensoftbank now, i believe you don't have to wait until april to see if it'll work. those who've already upgraded theirs to the new rom should be using that new ap already.
i must try this myself later today.
trialdei, thanks for the great work.
that is indeed a great news, I was also wondering how to find this in the registery but was not sure that the different key I found were the correct ones. I will try on my other Hermes tonight and we shall see ! But the very promissing point here is that potentially I can even use these files for my universal and the mteor... which means... if you don't like the crap of the SB roms... just buy a WM5 device everywhere U want and put these regkeys !!!
Good job Man !!!
Yes this is great news, I think we might still need the password to use the phone as a modem connected to a notebook.
I think that is exactly what softbank does not want us users using the connection for since we would use the internet more.

actually, i don't think you need to enter the password on the pc side at all to use the phone as a modem. check this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...etooth+set+TyTN+to+be+discoverable#post987712
how about us with new sb rom... i don't see any wireless modem application on my phone... do you have a cab file for the wireless modem app alone?. i can't find it from ftp...
guys,
softbank is blocking the modem usage with a pc and it seems that's controlled at their open ap. i don't believe that's anything to do with the password nor the applications you use. you can fire up dun on your pc with x01ht connected via usb or bt, but the connection will fail.

i think you're probably right but then i wonder what's the point of establishing the new password in the first place if the modem usage isn't an issue for them either way? all of the x01ht's making their way to hk and abroad aren't going to be used on the sb network anyway. the new read-only radio rom takes care of simlocking already so the new passwd solves what? they just don't like the idea of people running around with foreign language roms accessing their network?

i think they don't want people without the flat rate data tariff contract to use the open ap to cap the monthly pay. there are quite a few people in japan who just had the vodafone contract and running universal or hermes bought from elsewhere.
now that i have your registry solution for the new password, i cannot resist testing it on my universal. if it works, i don't have to retire my universal after april 1. thanks again.

great job, trialdei. i have not tried this yet, but i will not have to give up a2dp if this works with the docomo rom!! many thanks!
i'm a newbie on this topic softbank open access.
so what is the main purpose of having this option available for the user.
is it allow the user to have the internet access over the softbank network.
and also if possible, please guide where i can find addititional softbank open access setup instruction, besides the information is already provided by trialdie's original post on this string.
please advice.
found the existing thread on softbank open access (unlock softbank x01ht thread). got the answer from there.
great!
this is great! i was having problems with the new sb rom and asukal's mui... i can't seem to get any network signal or even passthrough connections with that combination..
i'll try this one with the new htc rom from south africa, it may work for me.
great work dude!
no connection appears even after importing the reg with docomo rom... i will try it again when i have more time.

hi qtotter,
you need to make sure your registry settings are sticking...did you power off/on. the below new registry keys/entries should show up if you did it right:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\SoftBank]
"Entry"
"DevCfg"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\SoftBank]
"ConnectionGUID"
"SecureLevel"
"Secure"
"AlwaysOn"
"RequirePw"
"Enabled"
"EntryType"
"DestId"
if you don't see these new keys/entries then your registry changes aren't sticking.

Hi guys so i got a a US cellular ROM and used rstoyguy's blank kitchen from ppc. I took out all the unwanted programs that i dont need and i wanted to edit some registry, the thing is i couldn't find the hv files to edit. the reason for this is when i flash the phone using this ROM i edited and go to SMS/MMS and go to mms options i could get rid of USC in the servers tab. I know how to find it in the registry editor manually but what i want to do is to edit the registry in the actual rom so when i flash it to a phone the server tab in mms is already unlocked and doesn't show me USC. any ideas? or should i use another kitchen ?
In my GSM kitchen, I can inject registry changes in an .RGU file or .PROVXML file.
If your CDMA kitchen contains such files, you could look to inject your registry change that way.
Make sure to use a Text Editor that supports Unicode format as well.
HTH,
So my problem was the text editor. LOL i feel stupid now. thanks a bunch
Phone: Location Setting
Start-Phone-Menu-Options-Services-Location Settings-Get Settings
The location consent form has “US Cellular “ wording throughout the warning.
How do you edit this? I changed a lot of settings already but still no luck?
Why do you want to change that?
im just trying to make a generic rom. Without any trace of any other carrier. When you look at the USC ROM it seems to be one of the cleanest and easiest to modify, easy to understand. Once i finish this, this may help a lot of people who needs it. so please help me pls. Thats the only thing i need to take out. I found the registry in these files mxipupdate_oemoperators_104 and mxipupdate_oemoperators_106 but once i edit it just shows me a black box with scrolls on the side. I coudn't see the original consent like the once found in the registry. Instead it is blocked by another page. help thanks

Hi probably not many will take advantage of this app, but it is definitely adding some functionality to WM which normally this system is lacking. Mods please conciser that this topic is not about networking using this program but translating the program (hacking exe file) so in my opinion it should be in this section.
What is it for? PPPoE is an application to connect to wifi network with Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet authentication. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pppoe
There is no other application like that for Windows Mobile, at least I could not find it The only one that exists is made by NTT DOCOMO in Japan and is in Japanese
http://flets.com/spot/pdasetup_download.html
Since I'm not a programmer and I simply cannot create application like that I decided to try to translate it to English with help from online Japanese to English translator and BeeGee_Tokyo who helped me by translating parts where online translation failed THANK YOU!
How to start:
Install PPPoE.cab file on your device, it will create folder inside program files, name of the folder is in Japanese and if you are using wwe version you will see squares, you can safely rename this folder to PPPoE or whatever you want, the same with original exe file (you can delete it if you want). Please put my modified exe inside this folder (it is in PPPoE.zip file). I'm testing this program on my Topaz with WM6.1 TESS 2.2.1 but program might be device and system specific so it might not work on your device at all. You can also change .lnk file inside \windows\start menu\programs to correspond exe file name change.
Things left to do:
- translate last missing bits if possible,
- find a way to create a cab file with embedded translated exe, till now MSCEinf and WinCECabManager are unable to help me with that anyone can help?
- test the program in real life environment PPPoE authentication over wifi (I don't have access to such network at the moment) and on what devices it works.
UPDATE - Probably final translation, corrected some minor mistakes, still I can't find a way to translate one error page and about page but program is fully functional now, have fun.
Translation
I am sure this is not perfect, but it should be good enough to understand the program.
Most of the translation is done by Google I just corrected grammar a little bit and translated Katakana words, where Google usually fails.
Thank you BeeGee I corrected most of the problem I had with online translation thanks to you so program is ready, I will apply some minor changes and upload final version soon.
It doesn't work on my i780 even if i rename it like the japanese one (wich works)
I think it is some kind of problem with certificates or security policies or signing of the program, I'll investigate this and will let you know.
certificate error

Hi!
I need this program because my adsl "router" (of Telecom Italia) have locked configuration..
I have htc touch pro with original Rom 5.05.408.1 ITA and when I launch your translated program, Windows return a certificate error!
mmmh I have question for you..
Can you create a PDF with screenShot in English and japanese for each window, so we can use the japanese version?
thank you very much!
bye!
Any news? At least, can you post screenshot of yours so we can use the japanese one?
Stuck at PPPoE AC discovery search
Well, I tried this program and ran it successfully. I entered all the necessary info n also changed the MAC as required using mtty. But when i connect it says connecting and gets stuck at PPPoE AC discovery search. I can connect with my notebook without any problem over wifi.
Anyone has any idea about it? anyone successful?
Chinese client ???
In search of PPPoE client I saw this chinese forum. They have mentioned a lot about registry editing as well. However I cudnt download the file they hav mentioned. If any kind soul can download and post the file along with proper instructions here it will be very helpful for guys like us....

Hi all.
I can't get it to work with my mobile cel. The program works, it connects successfully, but i can't use any browser. The "PPPoE adapter" it's "not connected" and without any IP assigned....
any help? Does this program works for you?
TIA
Buddies, i have tried and connects succesfully but still i cant surf the internet here is what i have done previously on my HTC S620:
1>Installed original cab file
2>Extracted Translated file on SD card
3>Then I edited the registery settings
3.1>Go to HKLEM>>Comm>>NTTPPPoE>>PDAConTool>>SSIDList
3.2>Create a Key Folder Name "Item02"
3.3>Create "DWord" Value Name It As "Spot" And Change The Value to "3"
3.4>Create "String" Value Name It As "SSID" And Change Its Value To Your Current Router "SSID"
4>Now Change The AP Connection Settings In PPPoE Application To Your Router "SSID" Created. (See The Pic Below)
5>These Steps are Neccesary Becoz This Application only allows users to connect only NTT-West And Fletspot Users. If You Change Your Router "SSID"
To "Fletspot" Or "NTT-West" It Will Not Work Becoz If You See Its Registry Settings It Contains "Encryption Mode" And "Encryption Key" Strings Too Which We Donot Know.
6>Finally, It Connects Me Successfully But Still It Cant Find The Way To Surf Net!

Hi I was not looking at this tread for a while, all registry changes are completly unnecessary if program is working. Of course you need to setup new connection with your own network instead of Fletspot or NTT-West. How to do it? Just click menu/new network and that is it, you can add your own network but to do it of course you need to know login and password, that's how PPPoE works, if you don't know it than this program will not help you in any way to create connection.
Hi,
I don't live in the US and this phone GPRS settings are locked to AT&T. I've read several post to modify the regitry, delete key, etc. My problem is that whatever I do I get access denied.
I am currently using CeRegEditor 0.0.5.2
I've hard reset my phone...nothing works.
I would like to:
1. Remove AT&T wap settings
2. Increase the size limit for ringtones
3. Enable my GPS to use my carrier data plan
I know how to do all of these things, it just that the registry won't let me.
Also... can someone provide a link to GPRSmgr.exe file?
Thanks !
Hello
I want to ask if its possible to change cscfile in S5830XWKPO CSC-S5830XENKP7
too CSC-S5830OXFKP3 to get swedish?
Or is it impossible or even not needed? Or maybe it dont change the language....
Dont know much about these things...
Yes. you can flash different CSC files with your ROM and Csc don't include Languages!!!
the rule is flash CSC only if you are having problems connecting to internet,
if your are able to connect to the internet without any problem then probably you don't need to flash anything else
most of the times network provider send internet settings automatically to your devices you don't have to worry about it, Just in case you don't receive internet setting you will have to manually input the APN (similar to access point of nokia phones)
