Not sure if anyone has posted these elsewhere, happy to remove this if they have. I did a quick search as I was after the WM6 sounds (they're so much better than WM5!) to no avail. As I still have my Hermes I thought I would just copy them and see if anyone else wanted them.

I tried this this morning and as most of the files are .wma I had to convert them to wav before it would see them. If anyone needs these posting I can put them up here.

Here you go. Just checked, all the file names are the same, just had to convert everything to .wav
Let me know if anything is wrong!
EDIT: Can't upload the file, the ftp keeps timing out. Will try again in a bit!

Cool! Was just about to do it tonight!!
Perhaps you could upload it to rapidshare? If you don't, I'll mirror the files on FTP with my Rapidshare premium account so that it won't expire.
Here they are - the issue was the size of some of the phone ringtones, so I've left them as .wma since they will work as ringtones, just not any other sounds.
And here's the rapidshare link! Thanks, findus!

System write protected files
Unfortunately overwriting existing files is not so easy as the current files are write-protected system files!
Instead rename the new files to something like e.g. from 'Alarm 1' (original file) rename new file to 'Alarm 1_WM6'.
just copy the '_WM6' part and paste to the end of each filename.
Once done drop all new files into 'Windows' directory and select your chosen sounds in the 'sounds and notification' app in;
settings/personal/Sounds & Notifications
works for me
I don't have any problem with the protected files. I just press on Overwrite All and it worked just fine.

Yes I'm using Resco Explorer 2007. Ah I guess that's why. I have been using resco explorer for many years from previous versions. So I didn't notice that using other explorer wouldn't work.

I never had this problem... I just used activesync and replaced all of the files from my computer. Went smoothly and all files are working just fine with just one minor problem. The audio quality is nowhere near as nice as the originial when I replaced the sounds already on the phone. They are kinda distorted and the audio quality isnt very good.

That'll be down to poor conversion I think. So you switched back to Original T-Mobile WM5 ROM? Hmmm interesting...well good luck
thanks... was looking for these files...
does anyone know which sound goes with what notification for the alarm1-alarm5 files?
I think alarm3 is new sms

Hi everyone,
last week i got my new Tytn (italian version).
I'm not new in WM5 devices, my last device was a K-jam.
Now i can't remember some things that was very usefull with my K-jam, like:
1. where i can get the cab file that enables the BT icon in today(in the bottom)?
2. How i can use Mp3 as ringtone?
3. Where i can find the registry mods to enable the vibraton phone pad?
4. and also where i can get a freeware registry util?
Thanks everyone
well, I can answer a few for you:
BT Icon in Today?

google "phm regedit" or install the free taskmgr located on buzzdev.net. It has a very good registry editor plus a whole lot more functionality

http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=241898&hl=
i've downloaded the related .cab file, soft reset but nothing changed.
it doesn't work.
I also remeber that there is a third part software that also enable the vibratign pad, can someone remeber the name?

There's an application mentioned in the post I linked to above.
Check the first reply.
EDIT: Here it is... http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/d9.shtml
Yes, thanks for the link.
but i don't like the graphic of the pad. i'd like a plug-in for the existing pad or maybe something graphically better that the existing one.
thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Very easy to do - slightly undocumented feature
Navigate into the \Application Data\Sounds\ folder on your phone and drop the MP3 there - it will then show up in your ringtone list
I tend to edit the mp3's down to about 30 seconds of the song I want and save them as mono and at a low bitrate so they don't take up a lot of space on the phone but you don't have to do this - just realize that if you put a bunch of MP3's on there, you'll fill up your internal storage pretty quickly if you don't, but if you just want one there it shouldn't be a big deal.
yes i know this feature.... but how i can do it to use an MP3 as SMS allert?
thanks

Hi all,
Just a quick question. I have removed the video trailers (Bond trailer, jazz by the city etc) from the My Videos folder however I have discovered there is another copy on my device in the WINDOWS folder. The other thing is that the files are locked and are unable to be deleted.
Anyone got any ideas on how to remove these? I don't like having unnessasary files on my device
Cheers
Any ideas in regards to this?
Cheers
they are in rom and can't be deleted
I think you can delete them with an application like Total Commander. You should try.
yes it works - thank you some MB are free now.

Don't work because this files are in rom and after reboot windows mobile replace it.
You could always try the old trick of creating an empty .txt file and renaming it exactly the same as the video trailers you're trying to delete. Simply toss it in the \Windows dir, overwriting the real video, and then check your space free.
Hopefully that works!

Sweet, will try this during my lunch break. Hopefully it will work after a reboot too.

I would like to get rid of that darn trailer as well, and those pre-installed songs. SE should have put them on the SD card instead, like Nokia does, for easy removal instead of making the reduntant files part of the ROM.
so just making a file and replacing will be ok like bond trailer xperia x1 and replace it with same name yes.
but ive notice that if you sync up your device the videos cants be seen through explore device
are we saying it all has to be done on the device it self or make the replacement file on pc tranfer the sd card then copy and paste it to windows directory

Good question! Actually, I've not tried it. First of all, as I use only Resco for deleting files, they would show up in the recycle bin! But, I disabled the feature altogether
I'm the kind of person who mainly does shift+delete on his PC, so I don't need this feature on my phone, but I can understand that some people would find it useful.
Ah well, I had to test it! So, good guess John. File deleted with Resco -> goes to the recycle bin and you can restore it to its original location.
File deleted with Windows File Explorer -> file is gone for ever.
Hi .. bro
How to disable hd2 bootup sound in new rom 1.66
thank you...
Please change the terrible title of this thread to something appropriate. When you edit, you need to "go advanced".
Attached is a cab that removes the hideous HTC bootup sound
Thanks to Shawn_230 for the original version that I simply modified with a streamlined wave file.
thanks a lot for this helpful file
can we make it with CeRegEditor ?
Yes, but it leaves the wav file on the device, which takes up space. Just use the cab, or delete the file.
oki john !
thx

Interesting.
You could always set the registry value to that of a file that you do want to play at startup. That should do the trick.
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation\StartupWav
Let us know how you get on

Just a word of advice... You'll need quotes around the filename, if it has any spaces in it, or it won't work.
\Storage card\StartupSound.wav will read as \Storage and stop at the space.
You'd need "\Storage card\StartupSound.wav"

It probably does. And I'd imagine it probably has to be the correct format of wav file (sample rate, bit depth, channels).
Can you post the original one here for me? I've deleted it with my cab, so I can't have a look at it. Actually, can you do that and the transformers sound you want to use?
ok i've managed to change the .gif on startup
cant seem to get the original sound off my device

thats the transformers sound clip (its 7th from the bottom.)

Ah don't worry about it. It was just a thought. It would be nice to be able to implement some kind of software changer for this new "feature" they've added. I don't think it's that wise though since the thing stutters anyway!
Sorry mate. I've had a play about and can get wav files to play at startup, but they all sound really bad. The stutter in playback makes all of them useless, and you need to leave a gap at the beginning or it misses the first part of the sound, and it just stops abruptly so you've only got a set amount of time for anything to play.
The whole bootup sound thing just isn't working right. It's not worth persuing until HTC sort it (if they bother).
I've attached the transformers sound you linked, so you can try it yourself, but I doubt you'll like the result.
Thank you..
Transformer sound bite, they missed the best one:
"Hey! That Hurt!"
"It's supposed to hurt! It's an ass kicking!"
To save me searching through the device does anyone know which sound to replace with silence to get rid of the new startup sound in new roms?
or even a reg tweak to disable it?
thanks in advance!

I prefer not to use cabs though as i like to know exactly what i am doing when tweaking and would prefer not to decompile the cab to see exactly wtf is going on!
I take it that cab replaces the wav file all together?
If you didnt want to do this you can simply go to:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation\StartupWav
and edit the name of the wav file in that key ( i added a character to its file name so it would be easy to change back if needed.)
was just looking for your post! does it work properly? the stuttering tone at the mo is a tad annoying!!

Yeah, tell me about it! What's the point of putting a startup sound if it stutters? It makes the whole device look cheap right from its first powerup.
All my cab does is replace the wav file with a tiny silent one, therefore saving precious ROM space. It works fine for me, and I've not had any complaints so far.
Where is startup tone located?
Hi
Could someone tell me which folder the startup tone is located? I wanted to replace it with my own wav.
Thanks
