I used to have the htc s620 which was great and never would have switched had the battery life been better but now I have the snap and my only problem is that the vibration mode is incredibly low. I can barely feel it and if I am driving then game over. I am looking for either a registry path to change the value or possibly a 3rd party program to assist me with this. I am using the 3vo wm 6.5 rom and any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just finished installing the new SX-56 WM03 ROM on my O2 XDA I unit. Having tried the new ROM for hours, I find it quite satisfactory and stable compared to its predecessors but there seems to be one set back though, the volume!!! It's quite noticeable that the volume had been tweaked down to about 30%, and they just made it more impossible for XDA users to hear whether there's an incoming call or message. Is there a way around this? I really hate to switch back to my old ROM just because of this!!!
Expert Advice Needed!!!
Your help will be greatly appreciated...
I have same problem... I think it's bug. If I set the system volume high, then the phone ring silent, if I set the system volume low, then the phone ring loud...
If you set the phone to 80%, means to klick under max. Than you can use 100% phone ring and volume.
Yup, that's exactly the case! you set the volume at 80% and it gives a louder voulme than having it set on 100%. I guess there is someone here who knows how to get around this problem...
So does anyone really have a clear solution to this problem? like a program I guess?

The solution: switch to ROM T-Mobile 2003 v4.01.16 ENG, and it's look like working fine without AT&T sound level bug.
I downloaded directly from T-Mobile, but I think You can find it at ftp://xda-developers.com
I would like to have the same options as on my WM5 smartphone (MPX200).
I can make different profiles for different situations. IE: normal: normal ringtone etc. headset: low volume and auto answer after 4 seconds. Outside: louder volume.
The phone auto detected my headset (wired) and switch profile according.
I've seen different (free) programs to manage profiles for the PPC but none of them seen to be able to switch auto answer in the profile or switch profiles when the ppc "sees" my BT carkit etc.
Anyone found/uses a program to do the above??
phoneAlarm from PocketMax... an absolute must. Provides even more functionality than profiles. Even let's you schedule profile changes. Absolutely Brilliant.

I second the use of PhoneAlarm as it enhances the WM5 Pocket PC so much. I specially like the ability to program missed calls and SMS repeats.
Regards
I don't like Phone Alarm. Use PocketZenPhone. Offers more possibilities regarding the profiles. Phone Alarm offers other features though, but in my opinion it's not well programmed.
Thanks guys!!
I'll give phonealarm a try first (downloaded the full trail version). Looks good so far, but uses a lot of memory just to change profiles. Not sure if I like the extra features that "invade" my today screen.
I post back my findings
You may also try PPCProfiles, which is an excellent freeware
I tried PhoneAlarm but gave me serious hangups with my TyTN and uninstalled it. I could not even use any TyTN keys after soft reset. I did a hard-reset and installed everything (except PA that is!) to get it back to normal.
Anyone had similar issues?
PS: I had installed it on main memory.
Thanks in advance

Removed from mine as well. I quite like it for a number of reasons but it is memory greedy and I aslo suffered hang-ups and freezing which in my case were borderline but not quite as serious as yours.
Have seen similar reports elsewhere.

Hey Folks-
I'm new to this mesasge board, and gotta say Nice Job & Great Site.
Today, I finally dumped my "no you can't do that with the" SideKick 3, and purchased a T-Mobile Wing to replace it.
As much as I disliked SideKick, it did have one neat feature. It had a control panel/application called "Sound Profiles". It allowed me to setup profiles for time of day sound control. Mainly I am looking to set the Wing up in a way so that the only noise it makes is the actual phone ringing between a specified time frame, so I don't have to listen to all the other sounds it makes while I sleepog.
I did disable ALL sounds, except for the ring for now. But I'd like for it to automatically for me, so I can hear email alerts during the day, but just the phone ringing at night.
Any ideas where I could find an app that would do this?
Your help is greatly appreciated in advance!
Hi folks,
Hope you can help.
I've switched off haptic feedback on the keyboard and find it a lot more usable without it. I've activated the "clicky" sound on the keys as this suits me best, however, the volume of the click driving the wife and my co-workers mental. I even got some dirty looks this morning on the train from others as I furiously (not really) typed out some emails.
Problem is, the keyboard sound volume seems to be tied in directly with the system sounds volume!
I need the system sounds high for text message alerts etc, but then, the keyboard is super loud; bring it down to an acceptable level and I can't hear texts coming in etc. To be honest even on low setting its excessively loud..
Is there any way around this? A reg tweak, substituting the wav file with a lower volume one? I don't even know where to start to be honest and appreciate any help you guys can give.
Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry guys, just saw this thread. Didn't come up earlier for some reason:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588179&highlight=Keyboard+Volume
I tried the CAB there and it didn't lower the volume noticably. Is there a way to lower if further?
I've made a quieter version (attached). It's probably too quiet now
It's probably best if you uninstall the last version first, a soft reset is required after installation
Thanks soooo much!!
Installed and its better already!
Thanks again.

Hi all,
Does any one know if the popping/cracking/volume too high is going to be sorted as I'm on my second HD2 and starting to feel I should get my money back, great device but it is a phone at the end of the day and phone call quality very annoying.
Called Htc and was told, the guys in korea are working on this issue!
But I cant help but feel this is hardware not a software issue.
Any advice would be appreciated, cheers
Call quality is great with my HD2.
Anyway, we had threads on this topic already. Don't create redundant threads, use the search function.
This should be closed.
Yeah....you must be 1!!!!!!!!!!!! of the lucky ones then.
Mine has the same issue, especially when the signal is weak, popping offen happens.
You can turn up the volume of the speaker by using the side keys. Don't know if this is a really obvious point or not cos i didn't think of trying that when i first got it.
Hi i had sound/vol problems.these were cured as soon as i upgraded from 1.43 rom to 1.61 now my sound is good ,try newer rom first.
I would love to upgrade the rom but my HD2 is branded to o2 network
Hi,
I had the problem with high volume and couldn't reduce it. By pure chance I tried the trial of Phonex from Iconsoft as I wasn't too keen on the HTC dialer and since then have had complete control over the volume. It's also a much nicer, finger friendly dialer and a much better contact manager IMHO. Well worth a try.
Hope that helps.
