I am looking for a way to set independently the
pda sound: like for notifications & alerts
phone sound: what you hear wen IN a call
ringer sound: what you hear when you are called, before you pick up
I noticed phone & ringer share the same setting: So whenever I set the phone sound louder (because i am in a loud environment), the earth begins to shake when I receive the next call.
Any help / suggestions :?:
pda sound: System events can be turned on/off with a tick at Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Volume , but the slider affects all system.
phone sound actually is the system sound.
ringer sound: it should be possible to set it separately in WM2003 - I know nothing about it (still PPC2002PE - xda-developers Special Edition ROM v1.2)
By the way, you can adjust the ringer volume in the entire .WAV file with SoundForge or something like that. And then - volume up!
I figured out to change the volume of the wav / mid.
But still: It should be possible to have the three different volumes set separately.
In WM2003 there are 2 volume sliders: system (notifications & more) and phone (phone & ringer)
Have you seen the Freeware called PocketZenPhone, just follow the thread on this forum. It does what you are looking for plus more. Hope this is what you mean otherwise sorry.
I tried PocketZenPhone.
To me it introduces easy acces to preset profiles very neatly.
But I did not notice that I could set different volumes for phone sound & ringer . . . .
Maybe I have to give it another try.

Yes it does, but it is only since the past few pages that this was implemented and works great.
Is there anyway of extending the ring & vibration duration?

You can make it loop if you want
(Looping Ringtones)
This tweak works perfectly you should apply it to your ppc's:
While playing a wav or midi or a wma as the ringtone the phone has a delay of 3 seconds before repeating, now this is really annoying if you've just created that great wav,wma ringtone, spent time making it loop properly in sound editor or whatever, and then the ppc does the silly delay, well, here’s the fix...
Open the registry editor:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Select 'Values'
And modify 'Script' by removing the w3 (eg. change 'av0pw3r' to 'av0pr')
"w3" stands for "Wait 3 seconds" you can make it "w1" or "w4" or remove to make the ringtone loops
Extending Ring
This may sound silly, but how do you edit the registry on the xda, I know how to do it on a PC.

Charlie
With one of these...
Thanks Bob
Will give it a go.
will this regedit work on xda II ??
cheers
yes it will work on all Pocket PC variants, including XDA2, MDA2, QTek2020, etc... (as long as they're ARM or XScale).
Thanks for that, will give it a go.
now be able to play with all the REG now.
cheers
Just to add another perspective, the amount of time the phone rings is actually a network setting (the time before it goes to the answering service) and can be changed by sending status codes to the service provider.
I'm sure if you google around a bit you will find the answer, but I changed mine from 20 seconds to 40 seconds, which greatly reduced my missed calls.
Surur
Edit: Done the googling for you. Check out this website (Tekguru) with a guide of sorts.
surur - that's a very useful tip - thanks a bunch for that
Hmm, few days ago, I found this reg values in the registry. I try some variations but with no success. I will check it again.
Maybe
a = alarm
v = vibrating
??
So, can I setup my phone, to vibrate periodic, while ringing continous a long WMA? Easyer to notify periodic, short vibrating, and it reduce battery usage I think.
Another question. I like siemens phones, because it plays a signal continously, while the ring-echo tone is hearable. It is good, because sometimes the started call interrupted.
With other phones like XDA, there is no signal while I waiting for the ring-echo tone. Sometimes the initiated call is interrupted, and I waiting for the nothing. The phone not notify me that the call is not completed.... :?
Can I make a Siemens-like tone for dialing?
(Can you understand what am I writing? )
Thank you!

Extended rimg on Orange
Does extended ring work on UK Orange? If so what are the numbers?
Thanks.
i used a wma file for my incoming SMS, but when a message arrives and i am reading it, the wma file just keeps playing. Can i set this in such a way that when i open the message, the music stops?
thanks
here is the documentation on how to set ringtones
i checked msdn , but couldn't find anything about the 'script' values this doesn't mean it isn't there, maybe I'm temporarily blind.
I would like to have my ringtone Vibrate then loop without pause with increasing volume, so i tried all the possibilities in phone settings and checked the registry :
Code:
script for ring : apw3r
Increasing ring : c50apw3c150r
ring once : p
vibrate : av3w3r
vibrate and ring : av0pw3r
Vibrate then ring : v3w3apw3r
so as far as i could figure out :
v3 stands for vibrate 3 seconds and v0 stands for Vibrate continuous
p stands for play
w3 stands for wait 3 seconds
c50 sets the volume to 50 ? and C150 adds 150 ?
a & r are used as begin loop & end loop
so my final script is v3w3c50apc150r which means
1) vibrate 3 secs
2) wait 3 sec
3) set vol to 50
4) play
5) add 150 to volume
6) repeat from step 4
I'm not exactly sure about the volume settings, but it works (as long i don't change the phone settings thru control panel)
hope this helps anyone

Nice M4io, I'll try that. thanks bro.

You can change the script in the registry. However, whenever you open the Phone Setting and click OK (since there's no Cancel button), the new setting will overwrite your modified script.
I like staccato vibrating while ringing normaly.
Like this:
Code:
ring: -------------- -------------- ------------
vibr: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I tryed some code variations, but didn't work.
In my Phone Profiles you have "staccato" vibration. I named it: pulsed vibrate. Both for rings and sms alerts.
I know that many users have problems with my Phone Profiles, but also I know how many users use it without problems (believe me: more). I still improve my softeware and make modifications and fixes. The problem depends from another software inside your hardware. Most of them are because IDCaller is inside the default OEM system in some hardware and users cannot remove this program. Alternatively you have not to use a advanced features from my software.
I give a free trial version to check how it works with your phone.
Can someone tell me how to change the volume of my ring tone or alarm tone.
This morning my alarm went off so loud it almost gave me and wife a heartattack.
Is there a way to bring it down a bit??
Read the manual

:shock:
Install a register edit program like PHM REGISTRY EDITOR:
http://www.gpspassion.com/upload/regedit.Mrln_ARM.CAB
Find the DWORD key called " RING" ( default @ \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\AutoPickUp )
and change the value to 5 instead of 3 initial.
The ring volume will be now louder !!!
Sorry for the wrong answer, I thought you would make it louder than default.
So just drop the volume down with the button !
:lol:
It works ! Thanks.
This morning I woke up with a more civilized volume
(didn't scre the hell out of me)
Hi everyone,
I have an O2 XDA Exec and I really REALLY want to shorten the vibrate alert duration on it. i have downloaded a registry editor, but haven't changed anything yet!! I have the latest ROM downloads from O2.
anyone know how to do this?
cheers
UPDATE: there are various registry tweaks on theh internet that don't work. shortening the actual tone used to a quick beep (for example) doesn't work either!!
aaaagh!!
how can i change the duration of the vibration?
when i get an incoming call my xda neo is vibrating for ~4 seconds.. can i change it into 1-2 seconds or 3x 1sec in a sequence?
can i change it separated for ringtone, sms tone and alarm clock?
I haven't done this before, but you can try. Refer to this wiki page, at the second "Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics"
I'm not sure, probably you can do a
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "v1w1v1w1v1"
E.g. vibrate 1 second (v1), wait 1 second (w1) sequence
do a backup of that particular registry before doing anything on it. Just incase.
Hi mille, here are some registry hackss that may help you solve your problem:
Looping Ringtones Delay
Ring tone has a standard 3 seconds delay before repeating. You can set the delay from 0 second to how many second that you want.
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Change 'Script' from 'av0pw3r' to 'av0pr' and you'll get 0 sec delay.
OR change it to
av0pw1r = wait for 1 sec
av0pw2r = wait for 2 sec
and so on...
Plus..heres the code
a - stands for display
r - repeat/replay the script again
c - sets the volume C50, c150, c100
f - means flash .. f1 flash for 1 second and f0 stands for flash continuously
p -means play ringtone
v- vibrate then incorporate with number to state how many seconds it will vibrate example. v3 vibrate for 3seconds or v - for continous
w - stands for wait or pause then specify how many seconds like w3(wait for 3 seconds)
heres the example
Flash - af1w60f0
Ring - apw3r
Ring Once - ap
Increasing Ring - c50apw3c150r
Vibrate Then Ring - v3w3apw3r
Vibrate - av3w3r
Short Vibrate - av1w3r
Vibrate Long Then Ring - v3w3v3w3apw3r
Vibrate And Ring - av0pw3r
Increasing Ring And Vibrate - c50apv3w3c150r
Fast Vibrate And Flash - af1v1w1f0r
Vibrate and Ring Continously without pausing - av0pr
try it out, but besure to backup your registry
cheerss...
Hm, as I have started to use eome long MP3 as the ringtone, I see that the vibro warks all the time until the melody plays... Is there a way to make vibro on-pause-on-pause wwhile just one long MP3 file plays?
Do changing these settings alter the sms message tones/vibrations as well? I want to change the vibration settings on my message alerts but not my ringtone.

i want too
I think there are no ways to change the duration of the incoming message when you switch it to vibrate mode. I got the same problem and felt very annoying on the long vibration even i had finis reading my message it still vibrates.. -.-
if there is someone who knows the way to change it please kindly let us know.. thankss
This would be in my interesst too!
Too bad that i cant customize this on my xda mini. I want a short triple-vibration like about 2sec
Thank u
vibrating
is it possible to have different style vibrations for txt/email/mms/msn etc
that way, if im in a meeting, i can feel the thing in my pocket and i know what is coming in?
it would be a very good app
plus with driving too, i'll know that if it vibrates a certain way, then its a txt, everything else would be email or something
Would this work
av1pv1w1v1w1
I am trying to get it to Vibe and ring at the same time, but pulse vibrating

Yes you can ... edit your ringtone with something like audacity, or cooledit of whatever to lineary increase volume from 50% to 100% within lenght. and then use the increase volume string in the registry.
eg. first loop @50% -- sound volume is going from 25%to50% (because of ^^)
second loop @100% -- sound volume is going from 50%to100%
now it's time to pick up your phone
i know: it's not perfect, but it's a start
[edit] oh yeah: cannot be done with factory tones I think[/edit]
