It doesn't bother me, but people on the other end of the line complain that the beeping the Tytn makes when changing volume during a call is too loud. Especially the beep at the top end of the volume slider.
I did a little digging (after searching and checking the wiki fruitlessly) and found a solution that I thought I'd share. 8) I'm new here so I'll let someone else update the wiki if this looks useful.
There are actually 3 different sounds in play here: the one at the bottom end of the slider (quietest), the one in the middle posisitions (standard), and the one at the top end of the slider (loudest). These are handled by 3 registry keys:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\LoudestInCallVolume
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\QuietestInCallVolume
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\StandardInCallVolume
within each of these keys the default 'Script' value is 'p' for 'play'
Change the 'Script' value to blank (erase the 'p')
Now the sounds won't be played and won't annoy your friends. Bonus - at least perceived by me - since the tytn isn't playing those sounds, the volume actually changes MUCH FASTER, practically instantaneously - the way you'd (or at least I'd) like it to.
Hope this is useful to someone...
Great - that really REALLY bugged the hell out of me! One for fit4cat Hermes Tweaker maybe?
Wiki updated, but don't be shy to do it yourself next time
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
BTW, the tweak works perfect on my TyTN, thanks!
Great! I'm glad I wasn't the only one. Thanks pof.
Thank you so much.
Excellent update!
nice one! that was doing my nut!
FANTASTIC
This is my first post to this forum... and I have to say that since buying my TyTN I have been plagued with the obvious "buying it in france and wanting it in english with the french HW keyb" problems, and then annoying things like the volume beeps were just exasperating.
This has made a huge difference
THANK YOU very much!!!
sorry guys but i forgot to go into the registry editing... how can i do it? thanks ;-) and sorry

You need to use 3rd party software, like PHM Registry editor or Resco Registry...
I fixed my problem when i updated my tytn with imate rom. Now, volume changes are faster with no annoying sound.
Very nice!!!
Thanks - Rich
Thank you! It's always nice to find these new tweaks, and this one certainly makes a noticeable difference.
Thanks for the tweak, my ears are pleased with it already!!
nice one cheers!!
WOW ! I didn't realize so many people would benefit from this. I didn't find any discussion of it when I searched.
Glad I could help. I won't be shy about posting new stuff I find in the future.
I also suffered from this stupid htc/windows programing bug.
Thank you!!
I read about and implemented this right after you posted it. It works a treat.
THANKS!
Nice one, mightyeric. I've spread the word on other forums... (but made sure I credited you!!!)
Does anyone have the skills to make this into a CAB for easy install?
Excellent, thanks for the tip- My 'dial' sound seems to have changed or corrupted somehow (I don't see how I would have changed it) so I've turned it off now- very handy- thanks
what are you guys using for switching profiles ?
i'm looking for a basic profiles app along thelines of ppcprofiles or phoneweaver.
unfortunately, i cannot seem to get phoneweaver to work at all - changing profiles says that the notification has changed but it never does.
is anyone else having this problem or should i blame it all on tf3d ?
thanks in advance
I always use the SPB movile shell and want more profiles too!
you could use spb phone suite. it works but imho it takes up too much place on the today screen.

i did try that and i agree - it's far too complex !
have decided upon a hard reset and retrying phoneweaver :-(

Hi there all,
you could use the Touch HD\ HTC profile manager. It can be found under the Xperia Programs, Panels and tweaks section for the Xperia. I was also looking for the same thing a while back, and found that.
hope that helps!

Can you post a link please? I can't find it and neither can the search engine.
At the moment I use SPB Phone Suite and it integrates into the Mobile Shell panel, if you don't like it on your today screen.
Sorry, my mistake... first post! Link Contained.
Here is the link to the whole thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441439
the section your after is under Touch HD utils its called volume control
Regards
Winmowgster
I dont think we are talking about the same thing? ... the volume control is just a new skin for setting the volume right? .. I think with profiles we mean like they are used in nokia phones where depending on your selected profile u ve a different ringtone, volume, message tone etc. ?
cause I d find something like this really useful .. at the moment I cant even figure out how to change the tone of when I receive a text message.
Looking at the Original Poster's request, I suggested a solution, which I thought fits the bill pretty well.
If you want to switch between silent, ring and vibrate then this does the job.
having read the request again, and googling the programs that mrdo tried, i see that i may have made a mistake. :S
The SPB Phone Suite is awesome! Well worth the dosh! Have as many profiles as you want plus automatic time or event based profile switching.

thanks for your input. i do have the touchstone volume control installed and it's very handy but i am looking for something that will allow me to switch ringtones, alerts and volumes at the touch of a button.
after a hard reset and yet another reinstall of my apps, phoneweaver still doesn't work. grrr and double grrr.
mrdo, what is the problem specifically? Is there an error on the device or do you start the application but nothing of significance appears?
I briefly tried phoneweaver and had the latter problem. Couldnt figure out whether it was running or not.
In the end I ended up giving up and going for the Touch HD simple profile manager.
I don't find HTC profile manager in that thread, can u post the direct link?

Hi you al, long time no see.
I recently changed phones from a HTC TYTN to the HTC Touch HD.
The TYTN did connect to my car BT (PHONE) with no problem at all. I don't need it for navigation because I have onboard navigation.
The new HD doesn't find the car's BT no matter what I do. I checked with my dealer and he told me that's because the car doesn't support this A2DP protocol...?
Is there no way to get around this problem?
I tried the Search button but most problems are about limited connection and possibilities but no relevant info about not connecting at all.
Any help would be great.
Greetings from Belgium
Anyone here with an idea..?
I've had no problem with my BT at all....well I did but that was because I'd forgotten to make my device discoverable...d'oh
Might help if you say what car
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\SYS\COD
Change COD to: 5374476 (decimal) and soft restart phone.
Try this and don`t lose your old COD number if this patch doesn`t help.
Thanks Guys.
The car is an Audi A6 build 11/2007 with MMI + NAV, phone and voice dailing.
As I said, my TYTN paired with no problem at all.
I tried everything and even paired the Touch HD with other devices which worked perfectly.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\SY S\COD
I sure would like to try this, but I'm not sure if I know how and were to find this...
Could you tell me this in a few words?
Thanks again.
Greetings from Belgium
Check if there are any other bluetooth devices added to your car - if they are then remove them and retry pairing them both.
Your HD should see the cars bluetooth and then go through the wizard to set up the connecton.
I had a similar issue on my BMW - this was the only way I got them to connect.

Use your registry editor application. Most roms come with one called RegEdit
Open it and use it like a file explorer and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\SYS\COD
@ arifhanid, Did that too, I removed all paired devices and tried again with no succes.
@ Fallen Spartan, I searched my HTC from top to bottom but I can't find a RegEdit program or something similar. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place... I'm not that familiar with going into the system altough, once I managed to change a German XDA II to English but that's a while ago...
If you could give me an extra tip or so? By the way, it's an HTC witch Dutch OS.
Anyway, thanks for the reply.

All roms are differently and maybe yours doesn't come with a regedit though you can get free ones easily enough if you do a quick search in Themes, Applications and Software forum
Before you do that check to see if you have a standard registry editor by using your file explorer and navigating to /windows and search for a file called RegEdit.lnk This is you registry editor. Open this file to use. If you want this to appear on your programs list create a shortcut for this file and save it into /windows/Start Menu
Now if you go back into programs it will appear on your list
Nope, no RegEdit found in the (very) long windows list.
I guess I'll have to go and check the Themes, Applications and Software forum.
So, there I have look for a program named RegEdit and install it on my device.
Then I have to change that COD as FileFixer told me.
I'll try that.
Thanks.

Just do a search for 'registry editor'. Should do the trick
Hello again Fallen Spartan,
So, I downloaded Advanced Configuration Tool V 3.3.
I didn't install it yet, but according to you, is this a good one?
Sorry for all my questions, hope this was the last one
Thanks!

Hey everybody!
This is my first post. Haven´t been a member that long. Have been checking out all the cool stuff in here and I´m deeply impressed with the content of this wonderful site.
I tried to search the Rhodium area for a simple timer but I couldn´t find one. Almost all old models of different mobiles had a timer. It seems that newer models have discarded (right word? I´m swedish this function.
So, is there a simple timer out there?
EDIT:
It´s a stopwatch I´m looking for =)
Hy,
do you mean i timer with actions for shutting down your device etc.?
i know the warhawk rom uses an app called Setup timer action v. 0.29
good luck!
No no.. I mean a stopwatch.. timer was not the right word here =)
Than i would recommend G-Watch.
klik here to see info and download
Wow, thanks alot.. *downloading*
Thanks
I needed a stopwatch and just realised my tp2 didnt have one. Thanks a lot!!
Personally,.I use MyStopWatch bt MyLostBlog...pretty good and easy to use.

Hi Everyone,
This is my first post, so please be gentle with me. I have had a little search around, and still can't find a solution to my problem.
I recently flashed to Oz rom 1.5 , and I'm on radio 2.07.50.27_2.
So basically no matter what setting I put the volume to, my ringtone and notifications are always the loudest they can be (obviously not if its on silent or vibrate) I have tried changing ringtone back to the default one, and its exactly the same. Is there a reg edit I can do? Does anyone else suffer from this?
Let me know your thoughts!
Cheers

You can have it set to have different volumes for system sounds and ringtones.
When you click one of the volume buttons, do you have "System" and "Ring" tabs at the top of the page? If you do, make sure you're on the ring one to set ringtone volume. This can also be done from the "Sound & Display" options on the settings tab.
Hope this helps mate
Thanks johncmolyneux, I've already tried that and it makes no difference. I have it set so there is only one volume control (so system and ringtone volume is combined) ... any other ideas?
Sorry mate, I know that was a bit of an obvious thing to check, but you never know on here
I guess my only advice would be to go back to the ROM thread and ask there. Maybe it's a problem with that.
no prob mate... I have asked there as well and the chef wasn't sure either...
are there any registry things I can check? I was thinking maybe my phone thinks 'level 1' on the volume is actually 'level 5' or something?
its so annoying-scares the life out of me every time someone calls!

Having never had a problem with this myself, I've got no idea where this particular data is stored. It does sound like something that would live in the registry though, so I'm sure that someone on here will be able to help you out. There's some walking encyclopaedias of Windows registry on here! lol
Good luck getting it sorted mate.
any one out there now where in the registry I should look?
cheers in advance!
