I changed the default rings folder and now I cant hear the call ring

Hi all
I have installed resco explorer and registry editor... and i wanted to change the rings folder from the registry (KCU>ControlPanel>SoundCategories>Ring>Directory) but it was unsuccessfull try.. so changed it back to the default folder (\windows\rings) but unfortunately when i get a new call, there is no sound coming out of the i-mate jam mobile even the vibration is not working.... what mess did i do guys.. please help me out here
Any help i will appreciate it...
thanx in advance

Every time the registry is modified a soft reset is required in order for the new registry entries/values to be loaded.

you know what i use to do this, theres a program that does it called sounds cool. you cant get a trial version however

i did a soft reset but does not work guys.....

If You wish to turn it back , You need to write in that reg:
"\Windows\Rings\" [without " of course]
and watch out for lower and upper cases (important in registry).

HTC TOUCH change lowbatt sound

Hi to all,
I am trying to replace the file "lowbatt.wma" in the /windows folder, in order to have a different low battery sound, but the system does not permit me, neither to overwrite the file. Is there a way to do this action?
Thanks

Check this
I guess the phone wont allow you to overwrite or replace the default lowbatt alarm...since its on the ROM. If your trying to use a customized sound file....make sure its a wav file. Have you tried to just drop that file under the windows directory and then selecting it from under sounds and alerts? I believe this should work.
Good Luck.

Thank you.
The fact is that I do not find the option to change the sound of alarm low battery in the "alert/sound" menu. Where is it? I found only the one to change sound of incoming calls, incoming messages, ecc ecc.

If your using a stock phone you wouldn't be allowed to make this modification from the sounds and notifications option. What you can do then is to add this entry into the sounds and notifications drop down menu. To do tht:
1. Your going to need a registry editing software.
2. Back up your registry before proceeding ( if you havn't already done so)
3. Before you go into the registry, make sure the wav file tht you want to use as your preferred low battery alarm is placed under the windows directory.
3. Navigate to the location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}\
4. Create a new string value here and call it Default.
5. Set its value to Low battery warning
6. Now go sounds and notifications and under the notifcations drop down you should see the low battery warning option.
7. Select it and assign your customized wav file to the entry.
And your set! Try it out.
Good luck.

Many Thanks, worked a treat!

this might sound late, but use total commander portable

how to highlight the icons /change the font colors

am posting the screen shot of my today's screem
can someone provide me cabs to
1. highlight / markout the today , people, messages, internet etc etc tab scrolling bar
2. change the color of date /operater name , call history and calender
3. change colors of the 1x, signal , battery , speaker buttons on top
thanks in advance

3. You gotta open shellres.192.dll in \Windows and extract all the files inside it and edit them =

can u tell how ?
any cab file which can make my task easier

Well no, you have to copy the shellres.192.dll from \Windows with Total Commander to your Internal Storage, then get it over to your computer, open it with PE Explorer, extract all the images and edit them, then put them back into the .dll.

its surprising that no one has ever tried making a cab for this

thanks to maranell0 for this thread and I got
DeskToon Slider Icon Set - View attachment 208557 - working on my diamond.
any more such cabs available ?

with the os customization i know i need to insert somehow the registry settings... but i don't know how.... with chteditor settings and facebook i guess is still registry settings but where and how?
I've seen sashimi... but still... I know how to use it... I don't know how to configure it...
So... plz HELP...

lots of cooked roms have an auto instal feature. put all your cabs in a folder called autoinstall on your sd card then when your phone boots after a flash/hard reset will install them.(let the phone sit for 5 mins when it first starts up, thats when it installs them.
as for the settings, build your own cab. I use wince cab manager. takes a little time but once its set up you just run it after everything else has finished (don't auto install it, cos the cabs don't necessarily instal in the right order. so for example you instal an opera tweak then install opera your tweaks are overwritten.)
my tweaks cab installs my custom lock screen, enables htc magnifier, tweaks opera cache and user agent, decreases screen sensitivity, and a few other things.

Even better, heaps better, get sashimi, study the tutorials, then you can choose which cabs to install to internal meme, which to sd, what reg keys to import, what static files to copy where, and if you need it, add scripts, certificates, run EXEs, whatever you ask.

I use mortscript for doing customisation stuff.... I generally run nrg rom's which use XDA_UC, so I can drop .reg files in the folder and it adds them on rebuild.
Code:
#Backup Ringtone Settings
outfile="\storage card\xda_uc\RingTone.Reg"
If (FileExists(outfile) = 1)
Delete(outfile)
endif
key="ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0"
Category=RegRead(HKCU,key,"Category")
SavedSound=Regread(HKCU,key,"SavedSound")
Script=Regread(HKCU,key,"Script")
Sound=Regread(HKCU,key,"Sound")
WriteFile(outfile,"REGEDIT4^NL^")
WriteFile(outfile,"^NL^",true)
WriteFile(outfile,"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER" & "\" & key & "]^NL^",true)
WriteFile(outfile,"""Category""=""" & Category & """^NL^",true)
WriteFile(outfile,"""SavedSound""=""" & SavedSound & """^NL^",true)
WriteFile(outfile,"""Script""=""" & Script & """^NL^",true)
WriteFile(outfile,"""Sound""=""" & Sound & """^NL^",true)
That is from my backup script. Creates a .reg file with the settings for the ringtone stuff in to the XDA_UC folder so my last ringtone settings carry across

thanks guys....
use the installation of software i got it... and if the rom isn't UC capable i can do it with sashimi (i have seen the tuto videos and read the doc)... also with sashimi i can do my email settings...
what i didn't understand is how to build my customization.... i just search every registry record... write it down.... and then what?.... sahii says to put it there somewhere... but not exactly how to create it.... and what if a custom thing it is not present only in one place like user or local machine?...

don't understand your question. But to create the file, use the regexport tool. You build an INI describing which registry keys you want. The tool extracts them and creates a backup file for future re-deployment.

Been searching for a topic like this for a while!
Thanks for starting this thread!
I too am a flashaholic and REALLY get frustrated at having to customize EVERY time you flash...
Installing apps is easy, dump them into the UC folder on your SD card and voila.
The tricky part is getting the Regional Settings and Time Zone sorted. I tried exporting these settings from the Registry and putting them into the UC folder, but it still doesn't work...

Just use SASHIMI. This awesome soft does everything you mentioned above!
BTW: SASHIMI has a big help-file/HowTo included and you can find good video-tutorials on youtube as well.

i'll try sashimi more... and get back...
so for sashimi... actually you need a clean install with all programs and customization manually made and after that export the registry settings?

ok.. i've found CeRegEditor... with this I saw that I can export my registry... now I need help in order to localize all settings I need... and to avoid to miss regs that are placed in more than one place...

disable my location, manila tabs config - just the order in witch they are and the tabs i don't wanna show... and cookie settings for home layout - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila
phone ringtone set to K.O., sms/mms set to alert fader high no vibrate, email set to alert shine no vibrate, missed call no alert, ring type set to ring no vibrate - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
I don't know if it is enough for the mentioned settings or if they appear in other places also.... i found out that ceregeditor only exports folders not single keys...

to export whole paths of registry keys, just go into totalcommander's registry editor, in double folder view, then COPY the selected folder of registry keys to a physical folder on the device, it will transparently create a .reg file
To import the reg file back again, either you use sashimi, or you COPY the .reg file from the memory into the registry with totalcommander
Pretty impressive huh

ok.. my first try was a mess....
i used sashimi... put the cabs all together.... this worked ok... although i have to change some names to install them in the correct order...
i made some reg files with CeRegEditor via activesync on the computer... i've put them into reg folder.... but nothing was imported... i think the format was not ok... at least i know what regs i need for the moment...
and last... i made an xml via sashimi/makisu... but this didn't worked either...
i'll keep trying....
LE: ok... it seems that i managed to make with some of the registry... with the xml file for the active sync i'll try more tomorrow....
does anyone know where I can locate facebook credentials inside registry.... not facebook the app but the sense integration...
and also where can i find the registry for
alarms
removing weather cities
removing timezone cities
setting regional setting to a specific country
thanks

Problem: the screen doesn't lights up when i receive a text message! Pls help!

when i receive a message its just play the sound... i have made some setting but i think its somewhere in regirsty... could any one help?

Set the DisableSMSWakeUpEvent to 0. You can find it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL .
With registry Editor:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:00000000

thanx, now its working.

I cannot change the value, it says Access is Denied. I am using Mobile Registry Editor.

Hmmm, strange....try with this editor....if not works we can try via desktop.....

Frank, the file is not complete. I don't see an executable. I have previously used Mobile Registry Editor to change my SMS thread to the classic style and other small settings. I don't understand why it doesn't want to accept changes.

I tried changing some values of other strings to see if the problem was with the registry editor but then I could change some, like this one:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg
but I can't change the value of, DisableSMSWakeUpEvent.

Sorry about my dumbness. Frank, I did not realize I had to install the cab file in my mobile. I changed the value successfully.
Thanks a lot for the help.
