Sounds and buttons - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I got a Asus P525. After installing Wisbar, the sound according to the red button of the phone was changed to a terrible beep-sound. After uninstalling, the beep-sound remained on my unit. Can anybody tell me, how I can assign the originally, or any other sound to this special button, evtl. by modifying registry?

Cingular 8525 Scroll Wheel Mystery

Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I have enjoyed my 8125 and when I upgraded to the 8525, I ritualistically came here for all the answers. However, there is one issue that I have experienced that is not echoed by anyone else.
I have ROM version 1.34.502.1 and have the following apps installed:
Eten Dialer
Phonealarm
PQzII
TomTom 6 Navigator
TCPMP
Google Maps
Live Search
The problem is that when I freshly boot the phone and place a call, I can manipulate the in-call volume via the scroll wheel. Up, down, no problem. However, when I exit out of the dialer screen and return to it a few hour later, I find that I can no longer turn the in-call volume down via the scroll wheel--only up works.
If anyone can shed some light on this matter, I sure would appreciate it.
Thank you!
Anyone have any insights into this matter?

Not much help, but just an observation. The behaviour shown by your scroll volume is certainly not normal. I tested this out on mine. What I did notice was that there is some lag in the response of the scroll volume - so long in fact that it can appear to be non-responsive. It seems the device "remembers" the number of clicks up and keeps trying to raise the volume even though its at maximum. So even if I then scroll down it can take a few seconds for it to complete trying to raise the volume before it begins trying to respond to my down scroll. In fact this behaviour can make it appear as if when scrolling down it actually is raising the volume - but I think this is only due to laggy behaviour in my case?

I found that the E-Ten dialer disabled my scroll wheel short-cut to call history and quick dial. When I removed it these functions came back. Shame, I like the big buttons.
Mike
Thank you guys for your responses. It wasn't a huge annoyance for me. I just don't like it when functionality just evaporates away from my phone inexplicably. Hopefully, it can be resolved somehow? I will look for further responses.
Thank you all in advance.
It's the PQzII that disable the in-call volume adjustment. But my version is: "down" -> turn in-call volume down, "up" -> switch to today.

PQz version up
Hi all,
I uploaded new PQzII.exe for Hermes.

*) Jog wheel (Volume Down) bug fix while calling.
Please try it and let me know if you find any trouble.
cheers,
tom
*)Edit
if you use "0x76" as any function. It has been changed to "0xAA".
There are some Hermes devices as like DoCoMo hTcZ/Softbank X01HT have "MOJI" button.
The button outputs "0x76" but it could be a cause of Jog wheel problem while calling.
as for me, I used 0x76 key code for IME on/off. and changed to "0xAA".
if you don't use 0x76 you don't need to care about this.
cheers,
tom

Buttons not vibrating

I seem to have lost the vibration feature on my buttons. All tabs are checked. Not recovered even after a hard reset. Probably a pre-hard reset app I'd loaded affected this.
Does anyone know of a reg tweak or another fix?
Thanks for the help
Simon
Does your phone vibrates when called?
Hi - thanks for taking an interest. The problem seems to have corrected itself.
I had to re-load .net CF 3.5. Don't know if that had an effect but after the hard reset and a couple of soft resets the buttons vibrate again.
Thanks again

Sky740, did you experience this problem again? I have not installed any other ROMs but noticed it after I installed some other software, including hd tweak, advanced config, mobilmagic button stuff and .net framework 3.5. Did you use any of these items/think they anything to do with it? I hope my problem goes away with my first Upgraded ROM. I saw another thread with the same problem, he was about to send back for warranty, but maybe I talked him out of it. Any information helps,
Thanks!
HI Guys,
Did you manage to figure out what is causing this? I have just got my HD and have the same problem...the 'haptic' vibration from the buttons doesn't seem to work. it has been like this from out of the box and i have not added any additional progs (only got it unlocked from Orange!!). the vibration works for incoming calls so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the hardware.
Any advice would be appreciated!!
Regards
~Cinner70
well
well, haptic feedback you mean, any button you press, on touchscreen and all? The only buttons that are suppose to have feedback without touch response application installed is the home, back, phone answer and hangup buttons at the bottom. There is a setting for those vibrate items. Try settings, personal, buttons, virtual button, see the vibration check mark? Does the Teeter game have vibration feedback on yours? If these things make a difference for you, you probably don't have a hardware issue, but if your getting any vibrate, should just be settings. Some of us on here are having major vibration hardware dysfunctions, just awful
Thanks for the response!!
Sorry to hear 'bout the major vib issues
I have tried all the 'virtual buttons' settings and the touch flo settings but i dont get any response from any buttons. i tried TEETER but there's no response from that either, but again i get vibration when I'm called.
Just thought someone may have noticed a 'glitch' somewhere, cause i initially noticed that if you apply a phonelock pin on set-up, it disables the use of the end-key to lock the phone..and i thought it may have been a software glitch or something....
New to the phone and win mob so soz if these are noob q's

volume key overrides keylock

I'm using an out the box Orange Touch HD (rom - 1.19.61.1 WWE)
I have found that the volume key still works even when the keylock is active.
I have used HDTweak already for other things and couldn't see anything relating to this. also searched forum to no avail (maybe not well enough )
Does anyone know of a way to fix this as it clearly seems to be an oversight.
Thanks in advance.

At a guess, i think its meant to be like that so you can adjust the volume if you are using it as a music player without having to unlock the phone. Does it affect you when you use the phone? (sorry i don't know how to help but I just thought I'd add my opinion)
thanks for the reply. i understand what you are suggesting but if i press the volume key then by default it adjusts the ringer volume and not the system volume. This is a problem as when its in a pocket i have already had more than one situation where I have gone to get the phone out and without realising, turned the ringer to silent.
I have a related difficulty... Hope you don't mind me adding to this thread rather than setting up a new one...
If my phone (Touch HD on ROM 1.56.405.1) is PIN-locked and I receive a call, I'm unable to change the in-call volume without telling the caller to wait while I unlock the phone and alter the volume... Is there any way of allowing the volume keys to work in this situation without having to unlock? I've search high and low for an answer or some suitable app to handle this.
Thanks.
Sorry - just done another search in these forums and have seen some similar questions and responses... I'll take a look there.

Hi,
I tried using the volume keys when the device was locked, you can indeed adjust the ringer volume whilst the device is locked, although if you try doing this after you switch the screen off by pressing the top power button, pressing the volume keys has no effect then.
Providing the screen is off, you shouldn't have any problems switching your phone to silent unintentionally .
Just thought I mention this.
it's a known problem that regards standard windows mobile locking system. Only solution is using another locking program (s2u2, pocketscreen, touch lock pro, lockmelite and so on). There are on this forum aplenty.
regarding to the other problem with PIN and incall volume i am not really sure but again iirc it's a winmo default locking "feature".
strange...
When I use the keylock (long press endcall-button), my volume keys won't work.. even when the screen is on.
This has been on my stock rom (1.14 NLD), new stock rom and on Dutty's 3.3 XT...
Grtz,
Degake

[Q] Volume issue.

Hello. I would really appreciate help on this one.
I recently got an HTC HD mini T5555, OS version: 5.2.23103.
After performing hard reset everything on the cell works perfectly.
However, after a software installation, the volume buttons won´t make any change to volume when pressed.
The volume controll dosn´t even show up in the display. Now, If I perform yet another hard reset,
(the software installed will be removed) volume will be changable again.
The software itself has a built-in function for listening to music, making cals etc.
From within the software you can change the volume using its own controls (not HTC volume control).
That works fine.
The software is called "Handi".
"Handi is a program tailored for people with cognitive disabilities.
The most fundamental difference between the Handi and "normal" hand computer program
is that Handi-programs have far less information and less choice per view".
I have no experiences from other hand computer programs but assume they all work the same way.
I´m sure there is a way to fix this in the registry. Anyone got ideas or useful advice?
Need more info? I´ll try to give you as much as I know about it.
Thanks in advance!
Regards /Anders
First things that came up my mind:
1. The volume buttons are disabled by the software
2. The Volume software is overwritten (reg keys, or other files)
Maybe here is a solution by installing a cab with volume control:
http://htcpedia.com/forum/touch-hd-rom-development/1161-[request]-htc-volume-control.html
More custom volume controls:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=598997
But be careful, modifications can make you do a hard reset .
I installed the CAB but still the same...
Gonna search the registry instead. Thanks anyway!

Moto G6 Plus Volume Button Switch.

I have a Moto G6 Plus Dual Sim and would like to know if I can adjust the Call/Notification Volume on my phone with the button on the side of the phone.In the information supplied this button is set by Default to Media and what I want to do is change the Media for the Call/Notification Volume so I don't have to go into the settings and adjust the sliders.This is a pain every time I wish to alter the Volume of my Notifications as on my old Moto G5 I was able to control the Volume from the side button.Any help would be gratefully received.Many thanks Sethnettles.
Yes, the pie update has changed the volume button function. There is a sound on/off/vibrate button on top when using the volume rocker but that's it... I haven't found a way to change it. I really cannot understand why such basic functionality that has "always" been available in Android has been taken out!

Good Morning, Many thanks for your reply and now I have got this sorted can you help me with another problem??I used to receive an Audible and Vibration alert for both my Call/Notifications eg:-E-Mail etc but now I only get an Audible Ringtone for both.I have been into settings and the Vibration is Turned ON I have also been into the Moto Help and Hardware Test and tested the Vibration which works fine is there any other settings or something else that I should turn on which I possibly have either mistakenly turned off or missed altogether???I have tried all the Icons when the Volume Button is pressed and I can turn OFF and ON both the Audible and Vibrate and both are OK as is the Call/Notification Volume so all I require is for Both Audible and Vibrate to work when I receive either a Call or E-Mail??Hope you can help,Regards,Sethnettles.
I believe that it has to be set for each application individually, in the settings menu of the application.

Good Morning and MANY THANKS for your prompt reply.I have now gone into Apps-Notifications-Advanced and found the area where I can turn the Vibrate on so I have done that and I'm pleased to advise you that I now have both working simultaneously.What caused the problem is that about 500 mtrs from my house there are 2 high rise blocks ready for demolition with a lot of Cellular Antenna's on top.As the Vodafone Network keeps saying NETWORK ANOMILIY I kept loosing the Network and after contacting Vodafone they said the system was OK and the problem was with my Apps.So I uninstalled and reinstalled my Apps that were playing up and I completely missed to turn on the Vibrate in Notifications but you have saved the day.As for Vodafone they have now admitted that there is an ongoing intermittent fault on the network in my area (I suspect it's something to do with this demolition job as none of the Antenna have been removed as yet.) Once again MANY MANY THANKS for all your help.Best Wishes to All,Sethnettles.
