making dialpad vibrate? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

i saw some tweak that should make button presses vibrate when using the dialpad. i am sure this would make dialing more secure and sure. i tried applying a registry tweak as well as a set of cab files "phonepadvibrate6", yet neither seem to work on my unlocked 8525. tried the tweaks here, http://mdatweak.com/tweak_detail.php?tweak=14 but still cannot seem to get mine to work. any ideas? a better cab? suggestions? i know it's a minor tweak, but one that i am sure would make dialing via dialpad easier. thanks!!

AWESOME: Vibrate feedback on phone key press

faysel, over at the modaco forum has come up with this awesome cab that lets you get vibrating feedback everytime you press one of the number buttons in the phone. The vibration lasts as long (or as short!) as you press the button.
Great cab, very useful for knowing whether you have indeed pressed the key.
This is great, thank you. I used to use Redial with vibrating effect on my PDA2k (WM2003SE) but this is even better
don't expect a long battery life with that! :wink:

Are you kidding me? I mean what kind of a battery effect you think it will have? Its such a small vibe that I don't expect to have ANY noticable effect on battery life. First it vibes only when you dial phone numbers (how many a day? 5? 6? even 20? Its still nothing. Second, receiving a phone call, that is the vibration during it, probably uses more power than this addition will use in 20 calls...
I really disagree... :wink:
This is a great little program!
I don't like it because if you tap fast, it wont vibrate. In addition to this, there is a serious problem with the dialer after you uninstall it.
So I had to reinstall it and now i'm stuck with it
My rating : 0 (ZERO)
@Andrew_sh: use the attached cab to get the keytones back, then uncheck from the sounds and notifications settings to get a working silent dialer back.
@Koksie
Thanks for trying but unfortunately it won't fix it.
When I press the button , the tone will sound but if I press it again shortly after, it lags and makes a higher pitched tone.
Sorry to hear it didn't work Andrew, I have no idea how to fix this. I use the vibrate and am happy with it, on my Magician going back with this cab worked fine, I have no idea what is causing this in your Prophet. I hope you can figure it out and correct it, good luck with that.

Try this, it's a saved registry string of the original keys that the .cab modified. Hopefully i'll work for you without messing up anything else.
I had to rename the file vibrate off.reg.exe to ba able to attach it. Just delete the .exe part ie. vibrate off.reg
this is a technical forum
can someone paste here the registry keys which are being modified by this vibrate utility?
thanks
Using a registry editor navigate to the following keys and follow the directions. Do this for each of the listed registy keys
1. Rename Standard DWORD parameter "Sound" to "Sound1"
2. Create new String Parameter "Sound"
3. Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf#
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf*
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf0
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf1
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf2
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf3
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf4
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf5
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf6
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf7
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf8
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf9
this mod doesn't work fine for me, I noticed the vibrate a few time but it's not working everytime I tap on the Keypad...
Strange :?
Although the mod works fine, I had big troubles removing it again.
After removing the mod with the supplied cab file any keys pressed in the dialer would lag and emmit a short beep.
i finally succeeded in removing it manually:
First reinstall the vibrate mod again so that the keys vibrated again when pressed.
Then go into the registery keys posted above, deleted the parameter "Sound" and then rename the parameter "Sound1" back to "Sound".
Do this for all Dtmf keys.
Thats all
its true if you tap fast it wont vibrate at all.. very annoying. is there a way to make it vibrate for a set lenght.. much like the dtmf tones used to be.. no matter how long or short i press..
that would be very useful.
regards,
tom

I used this mod until I found out that I couldn't turn off vibrate on incoming calls anymore. I can't be sure that they are related, but the timing was right. The next time I did a ROM upgrade I didn't install it again. I use speed dial with Photo Contacts Pro anyway.

Never mind - problem fixed
Not installing on Tytn / Black2.5
"Installation unsuccesfull, Not meant for this device"
Did anybody have more luck? How?
I don't like this
...the vibrate just doesn't trigger some of the time, which means you can't rely on tactile feedback on dialling, which makes it fairly useless. Sorry...
buhahahaha
*buzz* *buzz* *buzz*
works fine on my Jamin. Great app

Vibrating keys

Hey all I wanted to know if there is a program that will make my Wing vibrate slightly when I dial so I know I pressed the keys. I found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269024
but is doesn't work on my wing. Any thoughts out there?
Doesn't works for my LG KS20 too, is there any software to do the same job for vibrating on key pressing like the LG Viewty?
did you set the keypad tone to short under phone settings?
I cannot install it... error message.
I adjusted the reg, its faster and simpler. Did you try that?

Vibsrating Keys Cab
Here u go ..... just made a cab for it
Its lso included in one of my WM6 Roms
Thanks for the cab, i'm going to try it on my wm6 device.
i see 7 downloads..but no feedback yat..
feedback...;-)
thanks for the cab..i installed it on my tytn 2 and it works fine. there is one flaw (and i am almost sure it has nothing to do with what you did): you can press a key very lightly and produce a number without any vibration..i don't know if this can be prevented, but the problem is: you never have a 100% reliability that no vibe= no key pressed...
maybe its also related to ur touch screen pressures setting..
that sure makes sense...;-)
Have downloaded and used the vibrating keys cab on a 2003se BA. Great. No problems, and thanks!
cab only works intermittantly on a hermes/tytn/8525 device. uninstalled, and no longer get dtmf tones. dtmf is funtional, but i dont hear the tones when i press a number to dial. all i get is a singlr tone for most of the the keys, and another tone for a few of t e others. how do i restore the tones that were produced prior to this cab. Also, would someone share the reg edit that makes the phone vibe on digit press.
Works on Eten M700
Works great on my Eten Glofiish M700 with WM6
you have to make sure that under phone options, its set to short or long tones..if its set to off, you will not ave anything
Thanks for the great CAB

Customize dialpad, remove Video Call button?

Is there a way to customize the layout of the TC dialpad? For example, I would like to remove the Video Call button and/or resize the number keys. Can this be done?
Yes it can be done. Have a look at bepes WM6.1 ROM thread. He uses a different dial pad than the original htc ROMs do. I just dont know how, all I know it can definitely be modified, changed and skinned.
Hello, I don't know how customize the dialpad, but I have installed one similar to that schaggo says.
I find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354380
Hello, with schaps advanced config you can change dialpad. Just disable the phone skin and after a soft reset you've got original wm6 dialskin.

...which does not support video calls.
Thanks for your answers, I'll check out the HTC Dialer.cab and Schaps advanced config.
Is there any full screen DIALPAD? maybe something without the 2 lines for the contacts but bigger buttons.
Thanks
I miss a very comfortable "silent" button available in all mobile phones which switches off the ringtone while sb is calling you. any idea how to create such an option with TC?
thanks

Sound when you change your volume

Maybe it's just me but the sound when i change the volume of the diamond freaks me out... especially when i'm listening music with earplugs and i just wanna do it a little more louder it disturbs me.
Is there a way to make them go away? Maybe just erase the soundfiles? If yes, can somebody please tell me where i can find them?
pls help me
You can disable the 'sound beeps while changing volume' by using Diamond Tweak.
Thanks a lot for helping me fixing my problem...
I installed diamond tweak already but i did not find a tweak for fixing my prob.
I have Installed the 0.5 version is there a newer one? I couldn't find one in the internet so far...
Tweak # 1.5 in Diamond Tweak.
But it is only for in call beeps as the description says. Still you can try it. Sorry if it doesnt help.
still have this issue on Wm6.5 energyrom phoenix 2
I cannot disable the volume change sound.
Tried looking for wav files, tried using advancedtweak (And other tweak programs).
I can only get them to shut off when in a call. I want them to be disabled forever. Any solution ideas
Same here. I have looked in the registry and I can't find anything about the volume beep not incall.
i was looking for the same thing and the only solution i found was to install another volume control app
S2U2 includes a silent volume control that works perfectly
Hi,
When browsing the HD2 forums (I'm gonna get one in a few days, yay!) I found this:
75. Disable Beeps When Altering Volume
When you press the volume key you getting annoying beeps. This tweak allows to change the volume silently without the beeps.
HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume\Mute Change from 3 to 1.
It worked on my TP so I assume it'll work on you Diamond to.
Cheers,
/Cacti

Just tested on Topaz and it works like a charm
So simple
Cheers for that mate
Take care
actually tested it and it's wrong
what it does is disables events, reminders and sets notifications to silent
maybe it works on Leo but not on Topaz

Need help: touchscreen keys are locked when making phone calls

I installed PhonEx right after I got my HD2 but realized that I like the clean design of the WM phone. So, I uninstalled PhonEx and got my WM phone but realized that the touchscreen keys, e.g. Keypad, End Call, etc., are locked and are not functioning. The only way for me to end the call is by pressing the red end hardkey.
Does somebody know what can be the problem? Btw, I have S2U2 also installed.
This is a similar problem when the tap time is enabled in the BsBTweaks program. I don't know the exact reg key name, but you can download the BsBTweaks, enable the tap time, close, reboot, then disable it again. I think that will work or..
I think it's this registry key - HKLM\System\GWE\Touch\Filter - I have 0 for minimumtaptime. try to change it and see if it works.
