You just want the ringer to RING without any other indication of an incoming call?
or
U dont want an INCOMING CALL ALLTOGETHER?
I gather it is the Former coz In the latter simply turn On <flight mode>
U can also set the device to recieve calls without Ringing by setting it to Pick up after <zero> calls.
Using a handsfree here would be an advantage.
U wont Miss any call.
I just want the ringer to RING without any other indication of an incoming call. Is it possible?

I doubt it... Seems kinda pointless, having the ability to tell you who is calling, but then deliberately turning it of..
yes, but when someone is calling, there is always a delay.
When you hear the first ring, the caller already heard it twice.
Maybe by disabling this, it would speed up the process a bit

That's the network, not the device.
It can't be the network, I never had this problem with my Nokia phones.
I personally think it's a flaw in the dialer application or in WinMobile itself.

Well... The cause may be that, but I doubt showing a caller ID screen will change the times....

I agree with texarcana here, the lights begin to flash on my phone when it rings a good few seconds before the screen get around to displaying the incoming call notification.
This is on WM 6.1, on my new HTC Diamond Touch.
I assume that notifications such as an incoming call or text message are either
A) A windows message sent to a background service awaiting it.
B) An application is executed with parameters describing the event
In either case, i believe it must be possible to redirect the notification in the registry. However, if the notification method is at fault (ie causing slow response, most likely to be true if B above is true.)
I'm going to investigate, I'll post an update of my results.
Im really sorry to bump this really old thread but has anyone solved this?? I would like to disable the incomming call notification too.. cuz I just added a full screen caller ID, but the damn notification pops up and covers the photos of my contacts.. so whats the point of the caller ID if i, not gonna be able to see the pictures
well i know its in Hkey_curent_User\controlpanel\notifications\phone
but im not sure how to disable it...
or even more important (for me) only disable it for a certain #...? thanks! anyonbdy
To Diamond I found. cab which options are unblocking "flash light for." in SOUND & NOTIFICATION it didn't give but nothing. I dug around in the HKLM/Drivers/Builtln/Keylight and Keypad register and I turned off LED generally speaking but I blocked buttons
first you'll need a registry editor, then edit the following key:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Phone
Duration=1
change the 1 to 0
im not sure if this is exactly the fix you were looking for. its intended for stopping he default caller id bubble from blocking fullscreen caller id apps like s2u2.

Didn't work for my samsung i760, what about DispllayOrder? Set it to 0 too? Or what would that do exactly? I'm curious now, it's set to 1 so if all else fails, I could change it back to 1 again... I guess. I'd just like to know first before I go blindly jumping into something.. haha
Sidenote setting it to 0 did work I just had to reset my phone so remember to reset your phone after changing this, I see the curtain try to popup, or at least the frames but nothing after that... Although sometimes it does act buggy and I'll completely miss or be able to answer a call cause my phone will constantly viberate (No pickup on ringtone at all starting) then after the call is missed the viberating will stop but my phone will still be frozen... Thats when the screen is off though..
Okay after a few tests sometimes it does work and sometimes it doesn't work at all and the curtain will still show up... Then again screen off sometimes the phone wont ring at all, I'm setting it back to 1... LoL
I just wish there was a way or a more advanced notification manager, it should be just like being able to disable incoming text messages and disabling sent message notifications..
____
I'd love a fix for this too, as I already have a picture caller id with PocketX Photo Contacts Pro...
But it's annoying as all get out!! To put it politely, I slide to answer then I've got to press the left softkey too! In order to answer a call, if I could just disable the built in windows mobile caller id curtain then it'd be a heck of a lot easier...
Please let's get a scripter on this to start working their way around and tweaking it to be able to be disabled..
Thanks!!

As for ring delay which is also a few other posters concern of the phone taking it's own sweet time to decide when to start ringing... This is what I used for my i760, I'm sure someone here could turn this into use for any phone make and model:
Ring Time Limit Fix:
**772 [service code]
six zeros for the code (000000)
Scroll down with the d-pad till you see end of basic nam
hit right d-pad to change "exit" to "more"
hit middle d-pad to select
hit the down d-pad 76 times till it says slot cycle index
Change this to 1 or lower EDIT: By entering the value with the number pad and then you hit the middle d-pad to exit.
This changes the frequency at which the phone talks to the tower and will
start the unit ringing MUCH faster. the lower you go the faster but the more battery it uses. I find 1 gets the phone ringing within 3 seconds but doesn't hinder battery life.

I've got mine set to 0 though, but then again, I don't get very many calls, plus I have my phone charging a lot. Also I always carry around a spare extended fully charged battery in my holster... Usually my battery lasts a whole day... But with it set to 0 my phone picks up and rings at the end of the first ring on the callers end.

I made a small application (freeware in the first version) which allows you to fix the SMS feature of PPC2003PE.
You know: new SMS message arrived and only a short sound is played. The screen is black. (To be precise: your device was turn on to play the sound, but the screen was turn off - turn off the video buffer completely - to save battery. But I think in this way it is not working conveniently to read the message easy and useful.)
8)
Now your PPC PE device will wakup and display the SMS message popup bouble info. And you can read it right now!
You can free download:
http://geocities.com/myppcpe2003/PEFIX10FREE.zip
http://geocities.com/myppcpe2003/PEFIX10FREE.PPC2002.STRONGARM.cab
or from pocketgear.com (f.e. search for PPC2003PE)
This application displays a small icon on traybar, where you can access the options dialog or turn on/off the fix (SMS Wakeup). If you check the menu SMS Wakeup, your device will wakeup when the new SMS message arrived. Of course it will suspend again ion the time you set in general Settings/Power of your device. Then you can decide you can hide the icon and set it to auto-run after the soft-reset, so this application will work transparently.
On the home page, there is no descriptions or screens today. I will add it later when the shareware version will start (see the grayed options). Soon. I hope.
I'm awaiting any suggestions or comments: [email protected]
I 've tried it with 4.00.16 and it works fine. You rock! Thnx!
I like the fact that it keeps the screen off, but would love to fix another problem with message notification. Could you make it repeat the notification sound?
why?
why you want to repeat alert?
I tried PocketPlus which gives you repeatable sound alerts. But in the short time, I decided I did not wanted to use it in this way. Just because it disturbes me too much (for example when I'm on the meeting), or... if I use "infinitible" it can discharge battery.
Any way.
Simpliest solution, if you want bigger alert with more attentions, it is to use a longer and lounder sound file. You can set any sound file as your alert. Even with the play-time in minutes.
But.
Please check my program MY|PHONE|PROFILE.
It will give you more options to set alert files and action. You can use storage card to keep your sound files. You can change volume. And in the next version 5.0. it will give you the option to repeat alerts: 1, 3 or 5 times. I use: longer sound file in one Profile when I'm driving or shoping, and shorter sound file (just "gong once") when I'm on the meeting, and not sound at all but only vibrate when I'm on the cinema. To change the Profile - it is only the one touch of the screen.
Selly question will this work on PPC 3.17.03 PEFIX10FREE.PPC2002.STRONGARM.cab i notice it says PPC2002.
THX
thanks,
it is just my mistypped, but it works for PPC2003 only, of course
Just another question: I noticed that Phone Edition Fixes occurs in the list of actual apps. It is a bit inconvience, because if you select close all apps also the PEF will be closed. As look at Phonext which occurs in the taskbar, but doesnot occurs in the list of running apps.

In case I miss it. One of the things MS still hasn't fixed is that alerts don't play through the speaker if you have the headphones plugged in. Since it rings that way, obviously it is possible (any programmers want to take THAT on as a project?). So I miss things throughout the day since I leave the headphones plugged in while I do my business but don't always have them in my ears.
Does Pocket Plus repeat SMS alerts? I use SuperAlert, but it doesn't do those, just reminders.
Please check my program MY|PHONE|PROFILE.

I was one of the early testers over on PDAphonehome and just ended up with too many problems. I may give it another shot and see if it's stable now. I liked the idea.

For a work-related project we're working on, we are also very, very interested in making sounds come out of the speaker when the headphones are plugged in.
I am after a utility, preferably free, that will enable the XDA2 to vibrate when it rings.
At the moment the only way I can get it to vibrate is by selecting it from the volume menu, but this then mutes the ringer.
Also I am after a utility similar to finger clix that will allow you to write a text message one handed.
Any ideas would be welcome.
Cheers

No need for a utility - just go to Start -> Settings -> Phone, and in the first drop-down list select "vibrate and ring".

This is more difficult. There is no T9 style text input program, probably because nobody has the necessary database. The only thing that might help you is the Full Screen Keyboard by Spb (see http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com ).

Concerning your vibrate whilst ringing problem, I know a GREAT free app that lives right here on this forum, if you haven’t come across it yet its called PocketZenPhone, the thread can be found here, its very long, right now it's at 45 pages :shock: :shock: so I recommend you start reading from about 20 odd pages back to get the gist of where the app is heading in the future.
This program allows you to set up 5 different profiles for example vibrate, quiet, normal, loud and off. It has the ability to control both BT and Radio.
Anyway now I’m just rambling, just go check the program out.
You can download the latest version from here.
Thanks for your responses guys,
I can't believe I missed that phone setting, what an idiot.
I'll have a butchers at pocketzenpone to, thanks.
Hope this is the correct forum to post this in.
I am looking for someone to kindly develop a utility that will allow me to alter the standard 5 seconds that the vibrate option is set for within WM5.
As far as I am aware there is nothing out there that does this. HTC support in the UK simply say they don't have an option for doing this (thank you very much, not).
To make myself absolutely clear I am looking for a utility that will allow me to vary and set the length of time the vibrate function works for. The current deafult of 5 seconds not only uses up too much battery power but is a pain to use in a business environment.
The utility should ideally allow me to set the vibrate length to anything I want from 1 to, say, 5 secs in single second steps.
If anyone is able to develop a fully tested tool for this then please let me know.
Many thanks in advance.

@wb: You dont need a tool for this. You can simply make a few simple changes to the registry as shown here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
If you want to change the settings quite frequently, and find editing registry again and again cumbersome, creating a tool for this shouldn't be too difficult and i'll make it when I get time but first try it by hand and see that if it works for you...
Nice tweak but it won't survive a profile switch!
It goes back to default.
Is there a way to make a permanent change?
Secondly, which script should I use if I want, when I receive a call or SMS,
the phone to play the ringtone and at the same time vibrate every 3 seconds for 1 second?
Shantz,
I definitely need a tool for this.
The registry tweak in the wiki only works if you have ring and vibrate set together. In that instance the vibrate lasts for the duration set for the ringtone.
If you set the phone to vibrate only it will ONLY vibrate for the standard 5 secs. It WILL NOT vibrate for any other time period set by the registry change you refer to.
Trust me, I have played with this for hours and got nowhere. I have also been in touch with HTC who confirm that on vibrate only the phone will ALWAYS default to the standard 5 secs as there is no script within WM5 that will allow one to set parameters around the vibrate timelength only.
So to summarise; you can change the vibrate time period so that it aligns with that of the ringtone; however if the phone is on vibrate and you get a notification come through, eg a text message, it will vibrate for the standard 5 secs set within WM5, irrespective of the settings of the registry tweak you refer to in the wiki. The only time the vibrate will use the settings set in the registry key is if you get a phone call come through, in which case it will vibrate for the same length of time set for the ringtone, else it does not work. Hope this is clear.
So can you help please?
Thanks
WB
so then why don't you make an empty ringtone - no sound but a ringtone file nonetheless? With that ringtone selected you say yourself you can vary the length.
Hufkes,
Because that's not what I am looking for. Your suggestion is an inelegant fix, akin to sticking plaster, not a solution.
I don't want to be fiddling about with the phone just before I go into a meeting to set a blank ringtone. I prefer to do what I do now: 2 taps and vibrate is engaged, full stop.
That's why I need a tool that can allow the user to set the vibrate length, something Microsoft should have thought of in the first place!
Anyway thanks for your input.

hey wb: I will make u a tool for this...but ull have to wait for some time...i have an interview coming up next week, so not much time right now...
Yes please me too when you get a chance. Been the thing I have missed the most.
GOOD LUCK with the interview too
Shantz,
Excellent offer very gratefully received. Yep, once you are past the interview give us a shout.
Hope the interview goes well by the way.
Cheers chap, you're a good 'un!

Shantz,
Are you back with us yet to kick this off?
Cheers

Hey wb,
am sorry the interview has been rescheduled for this sunday...so though I do have "some" time but not enough to put into coding, i'm using that extra time to get some extra rest as the past few weeks have been quite hectic, especially the last week where i spent quite a lot of time studying...but dont worry i have a kinda layout in my mind for ur needs...will work on it as soon as im free...
OK mate, cheers.
You had better get that job! Good luck.
WB
finally had the telephonic interview just a couple of minutes ago...lets see if they call me or not..
btw ill start working on ur prog tmrw night if i dont have to go to a frnd's wedding..
I wish you luck.
In terms of the development of this tool, what I had in mind was, say, a script that would pop up some kind of dialogue box which would then allow you to set the duration of the vibrate. Duration could be from 1 seconds to the current 5, in 1 second steps, set either from a drop-down menu or chosen from 5 available time options presented on screen.
Once the vibrate length is set in this way then I would expect to be able to switch vibrate on, as one does now, and then have the vibrate for an incoming message (NOT a telephone call as the vibrate frequency works differently for this) occur for the set duration eg 1 sec or whatever.
Hope this makes sense. If you need more detail in terms of how I see this working, let me know.
Thanks again.
WB
hey wb,
i've just started on the proggie.. However it does not seem possible\feasible to "set" it using the earlier native way. I can fulfill the other options and give u an exe. Whenever u want to set the vibra mode with ur options, u can tap on it or bind to a hardware button. Is that ok?
wb, can you download the attached file and run it on ur ppc. check when u tap (or dbl tap) then does ur device vibrate...just checking whether the vibration code works on ur device or not...
Made a sample app for u...try this and let me know...
just tap on app to create start and stop shortcuts...then click on start shortcut to add notification for device to vibrate for 5 seconds on incoming sms.
jus check and lemme know if it works..this is a very quick implementation so i'll have to keep my fingers crossed
Hello Shantz,
Seems like you got over your illness then.
Just got home and seen your message. Have downloaded the Vibra file to the Tytn.
I ran it and it created the Start & Stop shortcuts as you indicated. Tapped on the Start shortcut but nothing happens. I guess this was not what you were expecting?
Just to be sure I soft booted and ran the whole lot again, same result.
Cheers
WB
yeah, am almost fit now...the fever's fully gone and tonsilitis is almost 60-70% cured..
actually, i had attached two different versions to this thread.
the first version will just make ur phone vibrate for 2 seconds instantaneously.
The 2nd version will not do anything at the very instant when you tap the start shortcut, but will start listening to incoming sms's. When you receive an sms, it will vibrate for 5 seconds...this was the intended behaviour..So let me know if you see anything happening on receiving an sms..
wb, I've found out why the app might not have been working. I use smssetmessagenotification api to notify my app whenever an sms arrives, now I found out online that there are 2 problems related to this:
1. This API is known not to work reliably, infact i found only a handful of ppl out of hundreds who cud get it working and that too sporadically.
2. Ppl suggest that even if interception of sms notification works (by this api or any other method), then ur normal sms functionality will be lost as this notification goes only to the first available receiver and is not "passed-through" to all the listeners.
I'll do some more digging on this but looks like wht u want might not be possible after all (atleast without a "slower" workaround, I think i can set a notification alert on the "unread sms" registry entry and diff it with previous value for any notification to see if there is a new msg and then run the vibra thing...will that work for u?)
there is a problem with WM6.5 roms lock slider:
if a call comes in & the lock is active but the phone is in suspend (power off or manually pressed the power button) the call will show "unknown caller"
you will not see the name until you answer od then you can see it later as missed call
this is annoying as you can not screen the calls & answer/ignore the ones you like
the slider lock will show the name only if the sceen has not turned off yet (did not enter suspend mode yet)
is there any fix out there?
I am thinking if someone knows how to make the screen light dim firest the turn off only (without power off / suspend) then it will work
anyone has a registry tweak to just turn screen off & leave the ppc running without suspend?
or any other fix????
i like to use the wm6.5 lock, i know i can use S2U2 but i prefer this one & hope we can fix it
thanks
Same issue !
Same problem here...
i use Chobit Company SmartLock and HTC phone Canvas...
HTC phone canvas is first to present ID caller then in communication WM6.5 lock is activate by Suspend mode in communication... because Chobit Smartlock is in use... other i have the same issue like You...
unknown caller with WM6.5 lock when it s suspend mode...

hmm i couldn't get the smartlock to work for me on my xperia
i used CsDevCtrl and it's sorta working... it auto locks my device if the backlight turns off or if i manually put it in suspend mode *power off button* and locks on wake up.... has a bunch of features i'd never use so it's a bit more complex than i'd like. but even with that auto lock i still get the unknown caller... i'll have to read more about htc phone canvas.. i'm not really liking the xperia dialer anyway... never have...
p.s. while we are on this topic of wm 6.5 screen lock... anyone else notice that alarms sometimes don't display the minutes if the phone is locked ? the slider works and everything for snooze and dismiss... but... it just shows the hour of the alarm.. and then dots like "10:...." even though the alarm is for 10:25...? plz post if you are also havin this problem...
again tho.. these problems might just because it's not the offical build yet... these problems may be worked out with an offical release... nothing i can't live with at the momemnt
so i still have no luck with this unknown caller ID issue
i am sure someone knows the registry tweak..as many programs just use screen off
for example media player as you can play music while screen is off
or S2U2 can lock / turn off screen but leave phone working unsuspended
please help
Thanks
I've noticed this also but if you use a dialer that has its own slide to unlock then it tends to work fine..at least for me anyway..
It does take about 2 seconds for it to go from unknown caller to who it actually is though..
not sure if device dependant, when a call comes in and no id showing I simply press the power button twice (off then back on) and i.d then shows
Hmmm, after showing Unknown for the Caller ID this morning, now the caller ID is showing up on wake. Strange. Only thing I have done was install the sdkcerts cab. I'll test further.
no caller id in tmobile wing after installing s2u2 1.62
Has anyone tried changing calleridmatch?
Use a registry editor and go to HKCU\Control Panel\Phone\CalIidMatch value is by default 8, i.e 8 Digits. Change that to 7 and soft reset.

Hi
i did not notice that i guess because i did not the alarm with lock screen before
but thanks for pointing it out
i fixed the problem
all what you need is to unzip the attached file..use the 2 files inside to replace the ones in "\windows" folder
i used resco explorer to replace because they are protected windows files
then soft-reset...everything works better after that & shows full clock & am/pm too

Thanks!! this worked for me. Using "Udk WM6.5 BETA2 21500 - base v2.04" (device= Touch Diamond)
When you dail a number on your phone and you press the call butten it makes a beep. Even when the phone is in silent mode it does that.
Is there a way to turn off this beep?
I tried the sound settings but nothing worked.
Turn off the call connect notification in settings > phone > advanced (some vibrate some beep some do both)

But thanks for the quick answer.

Really? I have never heard the beeping.. might be a network thing
Yup it is really weird. Could be as you say that my providex is the problem.
Oh well we just have to live with it
Great phone otherwise.
Ive got the beep problem too, and you can turn it off with a regedit:
HKCU/SOundcategories/callstart
Then turn the initvol value to zero
This does stop it but the only problem i have is that when i reboot the beep returns for some unknown reason, anyone know why?

Tnx
Going to try it later on.
First i have to find a reg editor.
On my diamond2 i used total commander.
Hope it works on the snap.
dont drive urself nuts with reg edits..
sktools is the answer for that, amongst many other things you may want to tweak.
once dl'd and installed to device :
sktools> tuneup> phone edition "Beep Before Start Call" = NO

Nice!! I forgot all about SKTools, had it on my Excal but never put it on my new Dash 3G.
Just checked, the beep is off by default on the Dash 3G, I turned it on to see what you guys were talking about.. man that beep is annoying as hell.

strange enough, I cannot turn this issue, as there is nothing on the phone edition...
any suggestions?
Dash 3G Call Initiation Beep
I need help...i am using the sk tools lite to edit the registry as suggested, but I cannot navigate to the HKCU/SOundcategories/callstart because it only shows HKCR, HKLM and no results found.
I have tried following the directions here, but need a little more guidance.
I am making calls in the evening and would really like to disable the call initiation beep (1 quick beep). I have no other beeps (such as minute timer) or disconnect tone.
If someone could please reply with specific instructions on how to navigate and disable, I would truly appreciate it. I have also tried a master reset, because I thought that at one point, I had found a way to turn it off (and i wouldn't hear it at all) but that was when i first got the phone a year ago. I can't remember how to turn it off now, I thought it was in one of the settings options, but have been through each one a dozen times, and still cant find it.
Please? anyone? Thank you.
I am using the HTC Snap, and I have the same problem as you. I cannot search HKCU using SKtools
However, using Mobile Registry Editor, I can access the registry on the HTC Snap, and going thru this path:
HK_Current User > Control Panel > Soundcategories >CallStart,
and changing the initVol to 0, I can get rid of the beep
However the change doesn't stick.
It reverts back to the irritating beep whenever I restart the phone or change profile... Anyone can help?!
Help anyone?
