Saw the post before, couldnt relocate it.
How do I make it so when using WMP or HTC Audio Manager, when I press the power button the audio keep playing?
Here's what I'm trying to do.
I have the Jabra BT8010 (which I love btw) and I would like to use my phone at the gym to listen to music. The blue blinking Bluetooth indicator remains flashing when I press the power button to shut off the screen, so I know my headset is still joined, but the music stops playing. When I press the power button to turn the screen back on, the music resumes.
-Randy
dont press the off button
asign a button to toggle screen it will turn off the screen
it's the only thing which can be turned off while the pda
is still on enough to play music
I'm using dcd rom 2.1.0 and audio manager 1.02 build 614.712
My audio continues to play after pressing the power button.

Can you do me a favor? Use whatever registry editor you like, navigate to [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ScreenOff]
There are 4 values in there:
blk1:
Default
Flags
upt1:
Can you tell me what the value is set to for each of the 4 items?
TIA! -Randy
Try putting the audio manager to REPEAT. This works for me...with repeat off the music stops when I power down the screen, but with repeat on the music continues right on through.
Here you go
default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 1048576
upt1 = 1

Okay... next step in the sequence lol.
How about the values in [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended]
blk:
Default

upt:
wav1:
That should be the last thing I need, I promise
default = 0
bkl1 = 4
flags = 4194304
gpd0 = 4
upt1 = 1
wav1 = 4

whelp... mine doesn't have the gpd0 value, and my wav1 is set to 0 like colonel said to do. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. there doesn't seem to be a pattern to it. it has a mind of it's own. I've decided that I'm just gonna wait for the new ROM to be released by Verizon before I worry about problems that would effect my everyday usage of the phone. Thanks for the help though.
HTC Audio Manager has always worked for me with power button off, and here is the fix for WMP as found on ppcgeeks
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended]
"WAV1:"=dword:00000000
Okay, I need a ppc genius to explain this one to me! This is very weird. I've been doing some troubleshooting here...
If I do a soft reset, music will NOT play after pressing the power button, even with the above mentioned reg fix.
However, if I connect and disconnect the phone from my computer and Activesync starts, and is closed (completely closed on the phone through QMenu) music WILL play after pressing the power button.
It also plays if I manually open ActiveSync on the phone, and then close it. It does NOT work while ActiveSync is running for the first time after a soft reset, but if I open ActiveSync any number of times after it's been opened and closed once, music DOES play after pressing the power button.
Weird... This is killing me, I need an explanation!!!
(PS - I hope this thread is getting considerable attention and views. I cannot be the only one with this problem lol)
Not a problem for me
I am on the 3.16 leak but even with 2.17 I was able to play music with screen off. With or without S2U2 using the power settings. The screen sleeps the music goes on. I can turn it on again change songs and then hit the power button and the screen goes back to sleep music still playing.
This seems to be the general consensus, but not in my case, and I'm sure a few others.
Like I said, after a soft reset I can only get it to work properly with what I described about ActiveSync. Weird, can't figure it out...
I was having this exact same issue. I changed the wav1 value to 0 it worked right away. Didn't even need to soft reset.

Okay guys after hours and hours of searching and messing with my registry I found a SOLUTION for HTC Audio Manager to stay on after pressing the power button to turn off the screen/suspend........
It is sooooo simple I'm just shaking my head, no more using psshutxp or other screen toggles.
It keeps playing...yayyyyy
First open Reg editor and go to HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager\Config
Now create a new "DWord value" name it DisableSuspend and give it a value of 1
(You can also change the value of "enter suspend" to 0 but with my new key it should change it on reboot anyways)
This was done on a Sprint Touch
Double post
i changed the wav1 to 0 on my mogul and it worked fine, then i soft reset and its not working anymore. The value is still 0 as thats what regedit shows

Hay guys and gals...
I have a question, regarding the PDA sound of the Wizard(so not the phone sound) it's the left bar on your volume shortcut...
I imagine this is a question which is on a lot of TomTom 6 users by now...
Is there a way, to increase this sound automatically only when a certain program is active, and to decrease it to standard when the program is terminated?
Tomtom 5.21 used to take over this slider, and the sound would be loud enough...after tt5.21 terminated, it would return to it's original value.
Now in TT6, the sound is related to the pda sound bar....so it's either turn up your PDA volume for all time(which I don't want to do, because all the sounds are so loud then...) or choose to not hear the voices of TomTom6 when you drive, even with the TomTom volume turned to 100%...
Hope someone has the solution for me...pretty please
Greetings!!!
maybe Mortscript???HELP PLEASE!!!
maybe Mortscript can do this for me?
But unfotunately I have no idea what strings I should use..
Could someone help me create a .mscr file to launch TOMTOM with max volume and to restore volume te previous, or set value after TOMTOM exit?
Prettyplease with cherry's on top???
got going...
Okay..
I got this far with mortscript:
run (aplication)
setvolume 255
This string turns up the volume all the way when you run the app.
Now only, I want it to go back to a preset value when I exit the program..
I tried:
Run (application)
While procexists (aplication.exe)
Setvolume 255
endwhile
Setvolume 70
But this imediately sets the volume to value 70...
even tried it with sleep 10000 between the run and the while, to make sure the app was running, no luck
Anyone gotten an idea???
No idea??
Is there no one with an idea on this???
Turning volume up is no problem, turnig it down again after closing app is what I can't seem to manage....
Maybe there's a program which does this???
:?: :roll: :?:
ANYONE????
Got the answer from Mort himself::::
Here's the solution...worked for me!!
Needs mortscript and a text editor(notepad)
My question to him on his support forum:
Haia...
I'm looking for a way to turn up the PDA volume during a program, and turn it down after the program terminates...
I tries to do this with Mortscript, using
run (aplication)
while (aplication)
setvolume 255
endwhile
setvolume 80
Even tried it with a sleep before the while...to ensure the app is up and running
This script however doesn't turn the volume up, but goes directly to volume 80...
The ap is Tomtom 6...the volume is now coupled on your PDA volume, so I have either very loud PDA sounds, or a very silent TomTom voice...this bugs me...
Is there a way to turn up the volume during the aplication, and turn it down again automatically after app exits.
Turning the volume up before the app starts is of course no problem using mortscript....but the turning it down after app ends is what's keeping me awake at night...
Hope someone has the answer....

Morts reply:
Probably the window name in "While wndExists ..." is wrong. Try to get it with GetActiveWindow and Message, and be sure to use correct upper/lower case (i.e. "Tomtom" won't find "TomTom"!).
Another way might be to use RunWait, i.e.
SetVolume 255
RunWait \...\tomtom.exe
SetVolume 80
This wouldn't reset the volume all the time, but also won't require as much CPU time. If you prefer the while loop (or RunWait doesn't work with TomTom), you should add a Sleep in the loop, so the check and volume change doesn't happen all the time. Sleep is far more CPU friendly.
Tutorial....
Okay, here goes....
Firstly download and install Mortscript, to be found at:
http://www.sto-helit.de/modules/edito/content.php?id=38
Then put the file attached to this post on your device..
Very important :!: :!: to change the extension of the file from .txt to .mscr :!: :!:
For some reason .mscr extensions are not allowed on this forum.
You can put the file anywhere you like...
Then click it to make TomTom run, The script will be executed and TomTom will start automatically..
If you find the sound too loud, take a text editor, open the file and change the value at Setvolume 255 to something less...
Same with the return sound..If you find that to much or to less, change the value at Setvolume 90...
You just have to tweak those two to your own desired volumes.
For people with devices in different languages, you should open the file with a text editor and change the value of \Program Files\Navigator\ to the value where you've gotten TomTom installed...
Good luck!!!
Works great, thanks!!
Now I have just put this script file in my "\Windows\Start Menu" folder and use this to launch TT6.
Fantastic.
BTW, 60 is the first "notch" of volume, which is where I normally have my phone.
Can anyone test the backlight function? I want to see if i can solve the iguidance problem of the battery light going off. this is what i have sucessfully working:
SetBacklight External 100, Battery 100
just found out about mortscript recently. very nice. found this thread doing some searches for solutions to my ttn6 problems. here's the script i use which gets the current volume first before setting to max.
# ace_ttn_start.mscr
# launch tomtom and keep active, set volume to max
# initialize values
ErrorLevel("syntax")
ttn_exe = "\Program Files\Navigator\TomTom Navigator.exe"
ttn_ttl = "TomTom Navigator"
intrval = 2000
# turn off connection established notification
mem_conn = RegRead("HKCU","ControlPanel\Notifications\{8ddf46e7-56ed-4750-9e58-afc6ce486d03}","options")

I have had a search around to this, but have only found solutions involving installing 3rd party software on my device, but im sure that it is possible:
My problem is that when i receive an sms (or email through directPush), my device turns itself on as well as sounding the ringtone and vibrating. When the phone is in my pocket, the touchscreen part of the phone means that i end up loading Opera, opening emails and all sorts of stuff, which is plain annoying.
What i would like to have is that when i receive an sms or email, my phone alerts me with sound/vibration but importantly the touchscreen doesnt unlock.
Also, when i get a phone call, i only want the on/off button and the green and red answer/reject buttons to work - i dont want the touchscreen to activate. If i answer the call, then i would be happy for the screen to become active, but otherwise not.
Anyway, i found reference to an app MortSaver, which seems like it will do what i want, but im sure there must be a registry way to do it?
I found the following on the wiki, and wonder if it would be possible for me to somehow use this? Maybe deleting some 'a's? Has anyone used this before?
Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics
If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To have the device 'Vibrate and Ring' simultaneously:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "av0pw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.
a = activate device
cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume
fN = flash notification LED for N seconds
p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.
r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.
vN = vibrate for N seconds
wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.

V15
V15, did you ever get a solution to this?
I didn't, no - I have found that by using the "lock device" thing on the today screen it works ok, but its a pain to have to keep going into and out of this locked mode.
It seems like no matter what you set the "script" setting to, the phone will activate first. For example, my current setting is v3w3pra, and the phone activates first. Will keep tinkering.
yeah, thats where i got to - its incredibly frustrating...please do let me know if you find anything!
Okay I read how this is done but what I am confused by is that there is only a single setting called 'Ringtone0' in the registry.
I would like to make it so when i receive an email or txt that it vibrates for 1 sec only, but when I receive a phone call it vibrates and plays the ringtone. Is this even possible?
Actually what I would really prefer would be the settings above but the the vibrate for 1sec only applies when I have the phone on 'vibrate' mode. When on volume up mode it vibrates longer while playing the ringtone
Sorry if thats confusing. I wass hoping there would be multiple profiles I could code, unless im missing something.
Thanks
anyone? i couldnt seem to get it to work
Have you tried these settings?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1357059&postcount=4
Mike
yes I used 'av1'
However I still dont understand, will this 'profile' of av1 go for all 3 modes (ie volume up, vibrate, and silent)?
I was expected a Ringtone0, Ringtone1, Ringtone2, etc and then I would somehow assign like Ringtone0 to be when the vol is up, #2 would be on vibrate, etc. What am I missing here??
Also to go back to the top, I made it to av1 and soft reset. On volume up, I got a txt and the vibrate still went off for like 7sec (default)
I too attempted this hack. I noticed the settings return to the original default of apw3r. I made the change and did not restart, then I changed it and soft booted, and then changed it and powered off. Everytime it returned to the default.
I just attempted to add 1 sec of vibrate on ring. v1
Any ideas on how to get the changes to stick or make it work?
These are the instructions I used:
Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics

I thought creating a thread that shows the various registry hacks might be helpful/useful/contructive/destructive.
I am still pretty new to all of this and would love to know what others have discovered to get 'more' from our PPCs.
Thanks in advance for the contributions!
I am using PHM Registry for my editor.
did you try searching? they are scattered all over this forum

Get rid of the voicemal icon on the '1' key (3.16+)
The 3.16 rom has added an voicemail icon to '1' key which also caused my skin to look messed up. You can disable it:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunctio n\CDMA\
set the DWORD value
"EnableVoicemailIcon" = "0"
by default it is set to 1.

Reserved - future use 2
Reserved - future use 3
i think this is a good idea as well... since ppcgeeks is down. just fyi, there are some listed on sprintmogul.net and a couple other sites.
Your really aught to just keep editing the FIRST post and as people find new reg hacks you can add them to teh first post.

go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds
Loudestincallvolume = the sound it makes when you turn the volume all the way up (that annoying little useless sound) delete this key to remove that
Quietestincallvolume = the same but for when you turn it all the way down
Networkdrop = the dropped call /w lost signal sound
Calldrop = caller hangs up before you do sound
---------------------------------------------------
18-Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics
If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.
a = activate device
cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume
fN = flash notification LED for N seconds
p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.
r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.
vN = vibrate for N seconds
wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.
NOTE: I tried this on my 6800 and changed the v0 to v1 and now it doesn't have just one long vibrate. v0 sets it to vibrate always.
-----------------------------------------------------
19-FIX THE SLOW RINGER
To do this, you will need your MSL, which only Sprint (or your provider) can provide you. Open up the phone app and dial ##778# (PST). You will be asked to enter your MSL. Enter it, and you will be brought into the provisioning of your phone. From the top left, select Modem Settings. On this page, your Slot Cycle Index (SCI) is how often your phone polls the tower for incoming calls, etc. This value is 1.28 seconds multiplied by 2^value (i.e 0=1.28 secs, 1=2.56secs) with 0 fastest, 7 slowest. The default is 2, but lowering it to 1 hasn't noticeably affected my battery life, and roughly 2.5 second (SCI 1) response time is far more reasonable than roughly 5 seconds (SCI 2)
-----------------------------------------------------
20-Change scroll bar size
Navigate to HKey_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\ and tweak the following values.
cyHScr : Horizontal Scrollbars Height in pixels (default is 13)
cxVScr : Vertical Scrollbars Width in pixels (default is 13)
-----------------------------------------------------
21-Save Attachments or the Whole Email on your SD Card
The Key in WM6 changed from WM5. In WM6 it is:
HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
For Attachments add "AttachPath" value="\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments" datatype="string"
For the rest of the email add "PropertyPath" value="\Storage Card\Inbox" datatype="string"
For the paths above to work, you need to have the Inbox folder and Attachments subfolder created already. You must reboot for them to take effect.
-------------------------------------------------------
22-add the AM/PM to your time in the title bar
To Add AM or PM
1) Open your registry editor (either PHM Registry Editor or Resco Explorer 2003).
2) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides
3) Create 1st String Value: Name = S1159 & String = Am
4) Create 2nd String Value: Name = S2359 & String = Pm
5) Create 3rd String Value: Name = STFmt & String = hh:mm t'M'
6) Soft-reset
There has to be a space after the am or pm otherwise it will not display
Also
am=aM pm=pM
Am=AM Pm=PM

23-Changing SoftKeys
Create the following keys and Strings in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 3
112 is the left key and 113 is the right.
Set Default to what you want the key to read (ie. SMS)
Now for each key create a new string named Open and set the target path.
--------------------------------------------------------

You can download and install PHM Registry Editor on your phone to modify the registry.

Great hacks. Thanks for your contribution.
big list of em over here.

im usually not one to mess up my phone (ie im usually very cautious, dont play with what i shouldnt) but i wouldnt touch that ringtone modifying hack. i just tried it, hoping to set the ringtone more like it was on an old razr of mine (4vibes and a break) and it really messed up the phone application. like it wouldnt open. even after multiple restarts, everything. after i called my phone from another one, the phone app opened, thankfully, and then it started working but gave me quite a scare before that
EDIT- nope, that didnt fix it either. even after calling from another phone, once my 6800 is restarted, the phone app wont work again. god this will be the 4th hard reset this week. lame.
Duration of the rington
Has anyone an idea if it is possible to say the phone how long the ringtone should play till the phone hangs up and went into mailbox.
I mean is it possilbe to set the duration to eg. 30 sec or more till it hangs up.
I know there is a hack to stop ActiveSync from starting automatically but I can't find it. Searched here and PDAphonehome. Anyone have it?
Hey guys, I'm an active user on the Wing forums. I was wondering if there is such a reg edit to save SMS to the SD card instead of on the phone? Thanks for any details!

have you unlocked your extended ROM? Do that and rub the IOTA cab.
Hi there!
someone knows a way to restrict waking up of the device to the powerbutton only?
it is strange on this device, on win mobile 6.1 and 5 all keys were locked except the power button, but on the touch 2 pressing any front key will wake it up.. and it happens quite often by accident.
thnx!
Check if following registry setting is in your phone or add it if you do not want to wake up by any hardware keys: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD "KeyLock" = 1 (default is 0) then Reset...
In my Rom this registry is not there btw.
