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

Guys
What are the softkey settings for the Phone Dialer and Contacts? Basically, I want the left softkey to be the phone dialer and the right one to be the contacts on the today screen.
How do I do this using the SoftKey applet?

Start reading this from post seven...
Please tell me again how does that help me .. I have already downloaded and installed this app as specified in this thread ..
But I cant find the location to the phone dialer and contact programs .. So, I am not able to set them up correctly ..
Phone dialer is cprog.exe in windows.
Contacts is "poutlook contacts".
Just find the appopriate shortcuts in your \windows\startmenu and examine the existing shortcuts.

Thanks Vijay. That's exactly what I was looking for .. Why couldnt rename it to something simple ..
Another stupid question .. How do I examine the shortcuts?
Use gsfinder/resco/total command and choose to view properties, noramlly by press and hold on filename.
Otherwise drop it into notepad!

Uhm, am I missing something? Why would you want to map the dialer under the left softkey? When you press the green phone key (next to the softkey) it will launch the dialer already.
Because it is much easier for one-handed operation .. it's difficult to reach down and click the green phone key .. with just one hand ..
there has to be a registry hack to remove the annoying tones that are played when you are dialing a number...
lmk thanks guys
Hi - go to start, settings --> phone and choose "Off" in the Keypad drop down box.
thank you!! omg i screwed around with so many settings in my registry to try and turn them off and all i had to do was this :emb: lol
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
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,

Hi All,
Im hoping somebody can help me with this one.
Is it possible for me to remove the loud DTMF sounds when dialling a number please?
It is loud and annoying (bit like my wife!)
Any help is genuinely appreciated
Cheers

Windows key - > Settings - > Menu button in lower right corner - > All Settings
Then go Personal - > Phone and put Off for keypad
Excellent i couldn't find that setting either.
There is a zoom feature in the sound notification settings ??? I can't understand that !
