You just want the ringer to RING without any other indication of an incoming call?
or
U dont want an INCOMING CALL ALLTOGETHER?
I gather it is the Former coz In the latter simply turn On <flight mode>
U can also set the device to recieve calls without Ringing by setting it to Pick up after <zero> calls.
Using a handsfree here would be an advantage.
U wont Miss any call.

I just want the ringer to RING without any other indication of an incoming call. Is it possible?

I doubt it... Seems kinda pointless, having the ability to tell you who is calling, but then deliberately turning it of..

yes, but when someone is calling, there is always a delay.
When you hear the first ring, the caller already heard it twice.
Maybe by disabling this, it would speed up the process a bit

That's the network, not the device.

It can't be the network, I never had this problem with my Nokia phones.
I personally think it's a flaw in the dialer application or in WinMobile itself.

Well... The cause may be that, but I doubt showing a caller ID screen will change the times....

I agree with texarcana here, the lights begin to flash on my phone when it rings a good few seconds before the screen get around to displaying the incoming call notification.
This is on WM 6.1, on my new HTC Diamond Touch.
I assume that notifications such as an incoming call or text message are either
A) A windows message sent to a background service awaiting it.
B) An application is executed with parameters describing the event
In either case, i believe it must be possible to redirect the notification in the registry. However, if the notification method is at fault (ie causing slow response, most likely to be true if B above is true.)
I'm going to investigate, I'll post an update of my results.

Im really sorry to bump this really old thread but has anyone solved this?? I would like to disable the incomming call notification too.. cuz I just added a full screen caller ID, but the damn notification pops up and covers the photos of my contacts.. so whats the point of the caller ID if i, not gonna be able to see the pictures

well i know its in Hkey_curent_User\controlpanel\notifications\phone
but im not sure how to disable it...
or even more important (for me) only disable it for a certain #...? thanks! anyonbdy

To Diamond I found. cab which options are unblocking "flash light for." in SOUND & NOTIFICATION it didn't give but nothing. I dug around in the HKLM/Drivers/Builtln/Keylight and Keypad register and I turned off LED generally speaking but I blocked buttons

first you'll need a registry editor, then edit the following key:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Phone
Duration=1
change the 1 to 0
im not sure if this is exactly the fix you were looking for. its intended for stopping he default caller id bubble from blocking fullscreen caller id apps like s2u2.

Didn't work for my samsung i760, what about DispllayOrder? Set it to 0 too? Or what would that do exactly? I'm curious now, it's set to 1 so if all else fails, I could change it back to 1 again... I guess. I'd just like to know first before I go blindly jumping into something.. haha
Sidenote setting it to 0 did work I just had to reset my phone so remember to reset your phone after changing this, I see the curtain try to popup, or at least the frames but nothing after that... Although sometimes it does act buggy and I'll completely miss or be able to answer a call cause my phone will constantly viberate (No pickup on ringtone at all starting) then after the call is missed the viberating will stop but my phone will still be frozen... Thats when the screen is off though..
Okay after a few tests sometimes it does work and sometimes it doesn't work at all and the curtain will still show up... Then again screen off sometimes the phone wont ring at all, I'm setting it back to 1... LoL
I just wish there was a way or a more advanced notification manager, it should be just like being able to disable incoming text messages and disabling sent message notifications..
____
I'd love a fix for this too, as I already have a picture caller id with PocketX Photo Contacts Pro...
But it's annoying as all get out!! To put it politely, I slide to answer then I've got to press the left softkey too! In order to answer a call, if I could just disable the built in windows mobile caller id curtain then it'd be a heck of a lot easier...
Please let's get a scripter on this to start working their way around and tweaking it to be able to be disabled..
Thanks!!

As for ring delay which is also a few other posters concern of the phone taking it's own sweet time to decide when to start ringing... This is what I used for my i760, I'm sure someone here could turn this into use for any phone make and model:
Ring Time Limit Fix:
**772 [service code]
six zeros for the code (000000)
Scroll down with the d-pad till you see end of basic nam
hit right d-pad to change "exit" to "more"
hit middle d-pad to select
hit the down d-pad 76 times till it says slot cycle index
Change this to 1 or lower EDIT: By entering the value with the number pad and then you hit the middle d-pad to exit.
This changes the frequency at which the phone talks to the tower and will
start the unit ringing MUCH faster. the lower you go the faster but the more battery it uses. I find 1 gets the phone ringing within 3 seconds but doesn't hinder battery life.

I've got mine set to 0 though, but then again, I don't get very many calls, plus I have my phone charging a lot. Also I always carry around a spare extended fully charged battery in my holster... Usually my battery lasts a whole day... But with it set to 0 my phone picks up and rings at the end of the first ring on the callers end.

Does Slide 2 Unlock (S2U2) Work?

Hey guys.
I cannot get this application to run on my dual! It just loads a black screen. It works though because I can slide to unlock it without being able to see the screen which isn't all that useful!
So is this just me?

Same problem on my Kaiser
Hi there!
I am having the exact same problem on my Kaiser phone.. :-(
Who can help?
Henk.

It's known bug with certain devices but here's a workaround disable Direct Draw:
Edit your registry, navigate to \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2
Find the key DirectDraw and change the value from 1 to 0.
Funny enough on my dual I didn't have to do this tweak!

'slide' to unlock?
I assumed 'slide' to unlock was sliding the phone open..
after a couple of resets I found out that you had to 'slide' on the screen
I there really no way this to may it work with sliding the phone open,
thought this would be really nice..
Besides from this misunderstanding of mine it works fine, caller Id is very nice!

Wow.
You are actually amazing for making that work!
You know, that may be one of the best answers I have ever recieved. Thank you so much

My Wing was doing this also. I changed the name from wallpaper.gif to Wallpaper.gif and it works fine now.

Worked!
Worked fine for me; thx!

works after the registry key change, but....
It works lousy if you activate the callerID. When you get a call , the internal phone app. takes over the S2U2, and after you finish the call the screen just remained in the position of the incoming call picture of the S2U2 and you cannot do anything except soft-reset. :-(
Does anyone has an idea or suggestion?
TIA/Zohar

sorry for my stupid q:
may i know why you choose s2u2 instead of the WM6 built-in key-lock feature? just due to big wallpaper instead of the Today screen, or some other great features attracted you?

Hey good question.
I prefer it because its a sleeker interface to go with a sleek device and also mainly because it annoys iPhone users that I know.

haha.. lol
i personally like the big caller photo most. yet i still can't make up my mind on using it for long term, because now sliding out the keypad can only wake up the device but no longer unlock it. and personally i still prefer using the green/red keys to answer/reject calls, which means the built-in key-lock feature can also do.

..and one more
It seems that all the keys and everything is locked except the iCube.
This can be activated even thouth the S2 is in keylock state.

(for Sprint Touch (Vogue) and Touch Dual (Nike))
you can lock the cube as well by adding this reg key:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Disable4SpecificApp\S2U 2]
"ClassName" = "S2U2"

is the ' ' space at the end of the key name correct? 'S2U 2' or should it be 'S2U2'?

How to remove delay after call is over?

After i finish call i see about 3 sec delay, and i can't repeat call or any action.
How to remove it delay ??
(please if possible registry tweak)

You can change that setting in Advanced Configuration Tool. In the "Phone" settings, end call delay default is at 3000, hence the 3-second delay. You can lower than number in the settings. Works great.

doesn't work, but i enter 0 sec

Did you try 1 second? That's what I have it set to, and seems to be working well.

hmm... doesn't affect...

Ethermind said:

One thing to keep in mind is that when changing the setting, you can't just type in the number. If you do that the setting won't stick. Instead, you have to use the up/down arrows to set the value.

Did you reset the device? It works for me.

Works for me too ...set it to zero (by typing in 0) and soft reset ...no more delay ending calls (answers quicker too)
Am using R3AA

works really great! is there also maybe an option where you can get rid of that beep beep beep after a ended call?

Does anyone know the registry key for it?
Mine doesn't have the option in the advanced tab. Just 'Reject call with text messge' & 'Add new phone number to contacts at end of call'

its not in the advanced tab. you have to use Advanced configuration tool...

Use the original winmo dialer not the beautiful one

Im using the dialer from PocketShield which has a pretty nice look in my opinion.

Hi,
I just installed Shaps Advanced Config Tool, but the mentioned option under Phone is not there. Is there another Advanced Config Tool I don't know about?
Thanks
Marc

Figured it out myself =) Used an old version (2.2) instead of the new 3.3.
nevermind =)

Turn off beep when call connects

When you dail a number on your phone and you press the call butten it makes a beep. Even when the phone is in silent mode it does that.
Is there a way to turn off this beep?
I tried the sound settings but nothing worked.

Turn off the call connect notification in settings > phone > advanced (some vibrate some beep some do both)

Just tried it.
It just turns off the vibration but not the beep.
Maybe it's just my phone...
But thanks for the quick answer.

Really? I have never heard the beeping.. might be a network thing

Yup it is really weird. Could be as you say that my providex is the problem.
Oh well we just have to live with it
Great phone otherwise.

Ive got the beep problem too, and you can turn it off with a regedit:
HKCU/SOundcategories/callstart
Then turn the initvol value to zero
This does stop it but the only problem i have is that when i reboot the beep returns for some unknown reason, anyone know why?

Going to try it later on.
First i have to find a reg editor.
On my diamond2 i used total commander.
Hope it works on the snap.

dont drive urself nuts with reg edits..
sktools is the answer for that, amongst many other things you may want to tweak.
once dl'd and installed to device :
sktools> tuneup> phone edition "Beep Before Start Call" = NO

Nice!! I forgot all about SKTools, had it on my Excal but never put it on my new Dash 3G.
Just checked, the beep is off by default on the Dash 3G, I turned it on to see what you guys were talking about.. man that beep is annoying as hell.

Dash 3G Call Initiation Beep
I need help...i am using the sk tools lite to edit the registry as suggested, but I cannot navigate to the HKCU/SOundcategories/callstart because it only shows HKCR, HKLM and no results found.
I have tried following the directions here, but need a little more guidance.
I am making calls in the evening and would really like to disable the call initiation beep (1 quick beep). I have no other beeps (such as minute timer) or disconnect tone.
If someone could please reply with specific instructions on how to navigate and disable, I would truly appreciate it. I have also tried a master reset, because I thought that at one point, I had found a way to turn it off (and i wouldn't hear it at all) but that was when i first got the phone a year ago. I can't remember how to turn it off now, I thought it was in one of the settings options, but have been through each one a dozen times, and still cant find it.
Please? anyone? Thank you.

I am using the HTC Snap, and I have the same problem as you. I cannot search HKCU using SKtools
However, using Mobile Registry Editor, I can access the registry on the HTC Snap, and going thru this path:
HK_Current User > Control Panel > Soundcategories >CallStart,
and changing the initVol to 0, I can get rid of the beep
However the change doesn't stick.
It reverts back to the irritating beep whenever I restart the phone or change profile... Anyone can help?!

Help anyone?

Call waiting vibration

I am facing a very weird problem:
my phone vibrates on call waiting...
i've had this problem on Energy ROMs from 28May to 12Jun.
At present i Am on :
Energy.BLACKSTONE.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Dinik.Glass.Jun.11
it vibrates right at my ear... can't handle it. i have looked everywhere but can't seem to find a setting.
I am even using Task 29 to clear up my device before flashing every new ROM.
Some one please help. i know there could be a registry tweak to disable this. Call waiting vibration = 1, change to 0....
HELP!

You're right!
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\CallWaiting\Script
Change the value to pw3pw3p
p - play ringtone
w - wait number of seconds
v - vibrate
I'm sure there are a few more. But this ought to do the job

Thanks a ton!!

Dude ... i can't thank you enough for this!!! really..!!!
mine was set to pv1w3v1
i was tired of the phone buzzing my ear every time in a call waiting.
wonder where this started from. i have changes 3 ROMs since it first started.
Thank you very Much!! :-D

Call Wait Volume Adjustment
Is there any way to boost the volume of the call waiting tone? Been looking all over for a solution

Thank you so much for this. The vibrate is actually audible to the other line because it's so intense on my TP2. I too had searched all over the phone settings for a way to change this. I don't know why NRG changed the default on this and why it is so cryptic to change!
Much better now thanks!
