Turning off number-key sounds - Palm Treo Pro

I looked all over my Pro and the manual, but cannot find a way to turn of the sound of the number keys. Every time I start typing a phone number the sounds ring out and I want to turn them off. Can someone help me?

Ok, sorted it out with help from Treo Central. For those who want to silence the sounds as well:
I renamed the registry keys HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf1 trhough Dtmf# to get rid of those annoying LOUD sounds.
To set the keypad to vibrate: Rename Sound to Sound1 and add a new String value with "*vibrate*".
thanks to frause from TreoCentral.

Turning key sounds
To turn Off your DTMF on your Treo PRO
I edit the registry
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Keypress
Find Script Beep mode, change 2 to 0.
Soft reset.
It works for me.

hello i am a little new to all of this. i was wondering if you could tell me which program you use to edit the registry and give me some pointers on how to complete the modification you mentioned above. the key beep annoys me way to much. thanks for your help in advance.

Use a program like total commander or PHM Registry Editor.
Go to:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Keypress]
And change BeepMode to:
"BeepMode"=dword:00000000

Probably a silly question...but if I turn off the key sounds or turn them to vibrate - will it still send the tones when I press the button?

Yes it will! No problem what so ever

Help: vibrating pad registry keys

I'd like very much to add a vibration to
the phone pad number of my Wizard.
I've tried the registry keys for winmobile 2003 but they don't work.
I've also tried Ezdial but nothing...
Does anyone know the windows mobile 2005 registry keys?
Thanks
hmm, my registry edits from my magician worked on my wizard! I'll attach a rar archive with two cabs inside. try vibrate cab file, it makes the changes for you. If you want the tones back, install the other one and the registry will be set back to your current values. remeber: After you make a reg edit, don't softreset or the changes will be lost. Better is to manually exit the regeditor by e.g. file-exit and not with the x in the upper corner. then soft reset or switch off and on by holding the power button 5 secs. Soft resetting directly after a regedit results in the edits not being saved in the ROM, hence no effect is seen.
wow! it works!
thanks very much.
bye
Thanks ! this registry edits work on my magician but I dont't that it was working on Wizard... Great !
Works great, thanks mate!
Is it possible to modify the cab-file so that you still get the vibrating number pad, but not the annoying beep when you press the red phone button?

Ring delay registry script

I found this on the hermes forum. I have a few questions related to the registry entry to be made to change the vibration sequence.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-278171.html
Now it was mentioned that the script for vibrate and ring is by default
in the entry HKCU\Control Panel\Sounds\RingTone0
script = av0pw3r
i tried changing it to av1w1v1w1pw0r
Now what happens is, the ring starts without any delay, but then the vibration sequence starts, finishes then the ringtone starts... How do i change the script such that both the vibration sequence and the ringtone happen at the same time?
search for vibro tweak in the forum possibly it'll help you
Install HDtweak 0.5.4
Launch it. Go to Phone -> ringtype and set it to "vibration and ring"
I use french HDtweak so I don't know the right english name...
I checked the registry tweak that this program makes too.
it is v1w1v1w1v1w1pw0r
This is, it will vibrate thrice, then play the music... doesn't serve my purpose, sorry.

Stop lefthanders turning off the phone ringer

I am left handed and I keep accidentaly turning of the telephone's ringer volume control, and thus missing incoming calls. As I earn my living by answering my telephone I needed to find a simple way to stop this happening.
Here is how:
load a registry editor like PHM Registry Editor from: http://www.phm.lu/Products/Smartphone/RegEdit/
Then go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\VolumeOverlay
Click on "DefaultPage" and change the value from 1 to 0 (zero)
click on OK and close the registry editor and do a soft reset.
Now if you press on the volume control by accident or on purpose the System Volume appears first, so the worst thing you can do by accident is turn off the system sounds. The phone sound is now the second option and is more difficult to turn off accidentaly.
Hope that helps someone.
Sam
Thanks.
As lefthanded user it overcomed me often.
Works fine,
Hans

Annoying sound when dialing ... (HD2)

Hello,
I have this weird problem on my phone... every time when I dial a number I get a sound from my device (HD2) ... it only stops when it`s put in Silent or Vibrate Profile.
The tone is not when I press the keys for dialing the number, it comes when after I have dialed the number with the keypad, I press the Talk Button.
The key tones are put to OFF mode, but that doesn`t help ...
Any suggestions ?
Yeah i have the same trouble, i dont like the dial tones, there ws an answer here on the forum somewhere, but it did not work for me, anybody have a clue?
Found the solution to my problem ....
Use a program like Total Commander to access the phone registry and go to :
[\Windows\HTCTone] . Then delete the .wav file witch is in that folder.
Hope that fix your problem, it did fix mine !
And how can you set the key tone to off?
Start
- Settings
-- Menu (at bottom right)
--- All Settings
---- Personal
----- Phone
------ Keypad, select Off
Press tick on top right.
Pefect thanks, why dont they just put all the sound options in one menu damnit, what a bizzare OS
