so i see that there is a blue angel rom with "true" crossbow sound theme.. im wondering if neone has these files id like to use them on the wizard. dont care so much bout the icons but want the sounds!
Can't remember which thread this was posted in, but here it is again.
thats only the ringtone......im looking for the system sounds and such
The ringtone file is the only thing I've seen posted in the forums.
After the mess with Palm over posting the PhotoDialer .cab and with Apple over the iPhone mock-up screen, if there ever WAS a posted file with the other system sounds it's probably had to be removed now too. But, if it WAS ever posted, I never did see it -- and I scour these forums every day.
This is the soundpack I have - I have it and have no idea where/when I got it. It has the same name as the zip posted here and has the same file plus a whole lot more. I think it's standard with the AKU 3.2.

thank you thank you
Anyone have any ideas on using the new sounds. I can't replace the files in \Windows, and cannot alter there attributes. I'm assuming you must build a ROM to use them.
I have a sounds folder in "My Documents" on my PPC and there is already a sounds folder in Application Data. Put them there and the system will recognize them. No need to replace the other ones...
-Mc
None of those work. The system still uses the files in \windows.
Try using Total commander to overwrite the files.
i used windows exploere and overwrote off the pc
You cannot just change the sounds i'm afraid, that's not worked since back in WM2002, you have to change the registry entries related to the sounds...
I reccomend a nice little commercial app (no links) called "Soundz Cool". It's a Windows based application that runs on your PC, which connects to any WM powered PDA, and pulls the sound settings from the registry. you can then edit them, and copy them back to your PDA with your own custom sound effects. Soundz Cool will even remove unused files it's copied across before to kepp your PDA clean.
Hope this helps you all, coz it took me ages to find such an application...

Is there any way (via the registry or whatever) that the system sounds, such as the stylus tap sound and start menu sounds etc can be changed on windows mobile 2003? i know there is a program called SoundZ cool but i dont see the point in paying for an app if its possible to do it yourself
They are all sounds in the windows directory.
Some you can choose in Settings/sounds & notifications
Other you can overwrite the files with another with the same name.
Probably you could change it somewhere in the registry, but don't know exactly where.
funnily enough, i havent tried replacing them as i thought they may be in rom :? ill have a go now cheers m8
nah, just as i thought - the files are stored in ROM rather than RAM so you cant just replace them. It looks like either a registry change or cooking a new rom coz the default sounds on pocket pc are rubbish! if anyone has any information on whereabouts in the registry i could change these sounds please say so! ive looked through it and cant find anything really
You are correct, the .wav files for all the events are stored in ROM, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't change them.
You can replace them for any sounds you like as long as you named them the same.
Here you have the ones I use. Just unzip and copy to your /windows/ folder on the Pocket PC and make sure you answer YES to the overwrite requestor. You are not actually overwriting anything, in fact, if you ever want to go back to your old sounds, just delete them from the /windows/ folder and SOFT-RESET.
**NOTE** I just couldn't attach the .ZIP file with the sounds, if you like to have them please email me at rayan(at)sonyericssonfans.com
Regards,
Sergio
That's correct, you can change virtually every sound provided you know what the names are of the .wav in \Windows.
I myself substituted all the default ones for those in WinXP and it sounds a lot better. I never liked the old xda sounds and so ever since having the first XDA I changed them.
I just wish I could figure out a way of letting the phone play .mid files as message alert tones...I know you can convert them but they don't sound the same.
Cheers

why does my fone say "unable to access the file" when i click replace?? is there a way to get around this??
Thanks!!
I actually changed the "select" and the "menu command" wav files to those of my liking. Thru some explorer app. such as "Total Command" I copied those two files available under Windows to some other folder and changed the attributes of the "Rom", "ReadOnly" & "System" to be "Archive".
Returned them back to Windows with the same attrib.
Overwritten them with ones of my choice such as "Spece MenuPop.wav"...
Mind you that you need to rename them exactly the original way and case sensetive.
Some how limitations are limited!! 8)
Cool.. great tutorial...

Heres my first TF3D theme. I was going to change more of the icons/buttons etc but just didnt have the time....Feel free to make additions to it, you got a month left
If you dont know how to install .theme files search for tf3d config
btw, thx to NisseDILLIGAF for his blood lol
looks great man! i love the icons
Having trouble using this cool theme
I downloaded the file, I unzipped the file, I extracted the file to my PC. I use XP. I copied the extracted file to my phone's internal memory under Pictures and I can't see it when I look for it in my phone.
Also, I can't open it on my PC, it says it's not "a valid theme."
Any suggestions? Total NOOB question, I know, but that's what I am at this point with this phone.
Thanks! Ellen

You need to change the last part in the name halloween.zip to halloween.theme
And you also need this app TF3D config, to set it as your theme. You'll find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749
Everyone has been a noob in there lifetime
WOW....love this theme, nice little touches like the spider webs behind the program icons, little pumpkins on the favourite people, great icons, grave stones and all...well done...10/10
Glad you liked it
My wife loves this theme on her diamond!

Wow. Maybe I'm just cursed but nothing is working. I changed the name of the file as you suggested, still nothing. Windows claims it is not a valid theme file.
Then I downloaded Diamond TF3D Config Setup v0.6.7.CAB per your advice above, and I can't find anything to open THAT file, either.
I had the Instinct prior to this phone and I am afraid the Diamond is waay over my head with regard to tweaks. I sure would like to come up to speed, though. I am using the Sprint issued Diamond with the burgundy flat back. If that makes any difference.
Can anyone help me with this? I want so much to be able to tailor this phone with cool themes, etc.
Thanks! Ellen
i love this theme very much thx for sharing
Absolutely kicks butt! Sprint Diamond users, delete tweak.xml from TF3D folder to make app work.
I love your Theme!
Odd, though, the last number on my clock flips back and forth from old format to new theme. What do you suppose could be causing that?

great theme
as a nightmare before christmas fan is that the best theme fo me. but is it possible to create a cab only for the tf3d slider icons? i love it and i need it rolleyes:
how do I change the applications my Cube calls for Music and Videos?
I'm using PHMRegedit to change the parameters and application paths but they don't "stick".
When I soft-reset, they go back to pimg.exe.
Don't really want to download the configuration app if I can manually edit the Registry.
Thanks,
It's impossible with original MediaHubMini. You must replace it with hacked one. Some info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325424
I've had a good trawl around...
...and found the manual installation files on the software homepage. Thanks for that, I'll have another go
http://ww2.fatattitude.com/software/software-item.aspx?view=download
edit: Still doesn't work though. I stop mediahub.exe, replace it with the hacked version and it refuses to open s2p.exe for music...keeps going to AudioManager, which is cr4p.
Never mind. I'll live without it until Santa brings me a nice shiny HD
UPDATE: These files are a part of my ROM, which came with my phone and it looks like simply copying the files over will not work. Maybe someone can try to figure out how to make it work on any device. Until then it looks like this is pretty useless.
My phone came with a built in iPhone-like Slide2Shutdown application. I did not develop the program, but I thought it was pretty cool so I figured I'd share it.
All of the files were located in my Windows directory, but I'm not sure if it's necessary for them to be located there. All you'll need to do is put a link in the Windows directory called Long_Power.lnk that points to wherever you put Shutdown.exe. I don't know how to make CAB files so if someone wants to do that, send it to me and I'll repost with the CAB.
You can probably reskin it using the png and ini files, but I'm not the developer of the program so I don't know anything about that.
Enjoy,
-David

I tried copying it from my zip file and it did the same thing to me when I ran it. Looks like it may not work for some reason. Maybe someone could modify it to work correctly.
I tried recopying it to another folder and it still didn't work. Sorry guys.
I've searched and searched and searched. But yet to find anything working well.
I'm trying to find a customizable soundboard app. There's so many sounds ide use (Dave Chappelles Rick James, Mr T, Anchorman... I could seriously go on forever)
If there's nothing out there you guys and gals could suggest for me, is there any devs out there that could point me in the right direction on how to write this app.
Cheers peeps
use this program http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-wdaft-for-wqvga-vga-qvga-and-square-mobile.html as a base. in the explorer, you can switch the sounds and graphics to what you like. p.s. this program friggin rocks!
Dude, your gonna get busted posting warez here.
Dude, your cant post warez here. read the rules
how is it a ware? it says its beta and its listed as freeware on that site.
Sorry dude. Didn't actually read it. saw the site 'ppcwarez' and though it was
my bad
Nice lil app. but how would one change the sound s and such?
its all good. i installed to my sd. i go to my device/sd card/program files/godaft. in the two folders are the images and sounds. you can make your own images or go to iconspedia.com and grab some free icons and replace them with the originals. then you can grab the sound files you want to use and replace them with the ones in there. i dont know what format it is either .wav or .mp3, but you can grab an mp3 converter freeware app from somewhere to change it. the only thing you gotta do is make sure you rename the file you put in with the one you take out.
Sweet,
Ive managed to change the header and sounds to dave chappelle's rick james.
There's only one problem. The buttons still read 'harder, better, faster, stronger'
I cant find anything related to these in the skin folder.
Any ideas?
ok i just checked and there is no button associated with the words. my advice is to just reverse-engineer the app until you find the text written into it. try using a .cab decompiler/extractor or visual studio. if you dont know how to do this then maybe look around on here for people who deconstruct files. i would look and try to write you a new board but i dont have the time and resources right now. you might also wat to try to find another sound board like the fart app. not all of them have all images cooked into it.
Dude,... this is THE BEST app ever invented. Work has never been that easy,... I put "shut up", "go away", "bring me coffee" and "cu tomorrow" in the app and I never ever have to open my mouth again

Post your sound board once you finish

I didn't actually edit the program itself. I just created the 4 sound files (*.wav) I wanted and named them L1.wav, L2.wav, L3.wav and L4.wav
Then I replaced the original sound files in the Godaft/Sounds folder with my own ones and now the first 4 buttons play my sounds. The buttons are still called "work it", "make it", etc., but they play my sounds. So if I would add more sounds, it might become hard to remember, which sound is on which button,... but the 4 I have are all I need and easy to remember

Thanks buddy.
I used 7-zip to extract the cab file and got loads of files. Extensions are .001 all the way to .052 (I'm guessing these are the resouces) and an XML file (used to install)
I've looked through the XML in notepad and cant find anything there.
So its in the resource files somewhere. How do i open these files?
Ive checked out Visual Studio, but not sure which version I'm after as don't know which language this apps written in.
I'll grab the all-in-one package though

If you mean the Rick James soundboard I'll post it when its done. But I'm quite new to all this. Never written an app before. So might be a while lol

it sometimes sucks that you have to use multiple extractors to dig out one simple image. i still got an eye out for another soundboard for you that is much simpler to edit to your liking. there was also a guitar app i seen that was crazy simple to switch...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482726. there is only 6 sound options and you have to skin the buttons the same as guitar strings.
