Hi there!
This is a topic that really makes me crazy
I found a thread here that showed how to disable the Start Call Beep...but it didn't work for me...I couldn't find the reg. key on my Trin.
So what beep do I mean exactly? The painfully loud one when you engange in a call, or switch to call history and so on.... Hope you know what I mean...out of lack for a better word I called it "System Beep".
Hope you can help killing this for me!
btw. I use WM 6 with Mary 3.6
thx!!
Same problem here...
I also have same problem, really irritating beep. Please do post if you find solution for this..
Same for me I hate that bip when I press the green or red button

Remove "Slide To Answer\Reject" from new ROM

Hi
I have the new ROM from HTC which has the new feature for the phone "Slide 2 Answer\Reject".
While this is kinda cool, its really annoying me because everytime I get a call and phone is in my trouser pocket, while pulling phone out the screen drags against inside of pocket and rejects the call!! Seriously, I have rejected loads of calls since this feature
I prefer no silly answer like "dont put in pocket", "turn phone around" etc
Did install S2u2 but delay in response so uninstalled. I just want to go back to the original but far to thick to know how.
Any help?
Cheers
Go S2U2 settings and remove this function by selecting "off" inthere..

Ringer-off switch doesn't vibrate

When switching the phone from ring to vibrate using the manual switch on top of the phone, isn't there supposed to be a short vibration as feedback to let you know the phone is silenced? When I switch from ring to vibrate, I get no vibration feedback, but everything else works correctly (meaning that the ringer and sounds really are silenced and switched to vibrate-only mode).
None of the Treos I've had in the past have had this problem of the "vanishing feedback" when switching to vibrate.
Does anyone know if there is a setting or a registry hack to re-enable this feature?
It is very convenient to be able to reach in my pocket and switch the phone to vibrate and to receive a short vibration to let me know I got the switch in the right position. Thanks in advance for your help!
You should try getting into Start menu >Settings>Sounds & notifications, and then notifications !
There should be a check box where you select to enable or disable the feature
Fyi
I have a similar issue...
I'm using 6.5 23549 RealVGA Updated from imzkng in ppcGeeks with the 'no windows/ok/X button' tweak and sometimes in start menu when a push 'lock' (or anything in the bottom bar) the Treo give-me a vibrate-feedback, ok I like it! but 95% of the time it just does nothing...
I bought a LG Cookie for my girlfriend and I LOVED the feedback and would like to put in my Treo... does anyone know how?
well, I found a program that rumble the way I want...
TouchResponse
U can config it to rumble when U touch and when your finger leave the screen... and other things...
well, i have the same problem with my custom wm 6.5 rom... as for the screen, touch response is a great addition (then i know when stuff freezes too )

Change slide for answer?

Im running MattC Leo Sense which uses a slide/lock for both the phone lock and to answer phone calls. I was able to change the phone lock slider from up/down to left/right but I want to do the same with answering phone calls.
What happens with incomming calls is someone calls me and I pull my phone straight up and out of my pocket. When I do this, the phone rejects the call because the phone rubs against my inside pocket and slids the answer/slide to reject phone call. If I could change the answer/slide from up/down to left/right then this wouldnt happen.
Does anyone have this issue and/or know of a fix?
Thanks

you can just set a screen lock on it and it doesnt show up until u unlock the screen lol.. thats wat i have or else it answers or ignores people in my pocket.. so with the connect the dot screen lock it just rings and shows u who it is until u unlock the screen...
Can you please tell me how you changed the unlocker from up/down to left/right. I would really appreciate.

same problem here, i've tryed the lockscreen tactic. but i find that very annoying. I have no program skills but there must be some guy who can make a small apk that deletes the slider and replaces it with nothing =) so i can just use the hard buttons on my HD2...
Just to bring the issue up again im still having massive problems with calls being ignored or answered (depends on which way the phone is in my pocket)
Anyway have any idea, ive tried widget locker but that only seems to apply to lock screen and not phone call screen.
This issue had anoyed me for a while as well. I have tried widget locker and that works great for the phone lock, but as mentioned earlier in this thread - not for the incoming call locker.
If someone fixes this for the sense based ROMs, they will be my hero!
cyanogen mod ROM includes the "slide to answer" from lockscreen window similar to "widget locker" app. i just wish they would include the option to add widgets and shortcuts to the lockscreen like widgetlocker does

I have the exact same problem, and looking for a fix.
same problem here
people hung up on me because phone answered in my pocket and they would hear noise while I'm removing it from my pocket/case >.>
setting a lock screen is so annoying, now I remove my phone carefully so I don't answer by mistake.
[edit] I've searched around the net, and downloaded a few new lock screens. there's one called "simply lock screen" it has an option to disable the slide to answer, and it will be replaced by the normal answer buttons you get when the device is not sleeping. it might work, but there's still chance that the answer/dismiss buttons will be pressed when you remove the device from the pocket
same problem here... no one has a clue yet?
the problem is htc sense...to avoid this problem i have switched to stock android builds...
There are a couple of apps out there that can help, the best I have found is Easy Answer Button. It is a bit tempermental, but if you install it as your last app after a fresh flash, it tends to work better - at least imho.
Others are Advanced Telephone (also free) and EZAnswer which will cost you a couple of bucks. (The link is to the 2 day trial).

Why don't you just delete htclockscreen.apk from system/app.
It will change sense up and down answer to left, right standard android lockscreen.
Use root explorer or the like and reboot afterwards to see changes.
