Hello
I'm sorry if this has already been threaded but for the life of me I have not been able to change the alert tones on wp7 mango on HD2. I have got touchxperience and touchxplorer, tried emailing the file but I cannot find the downloaded file on the phone. Touchxperience 1.3 does not seem to work on my mango phone and I cannot find a 1.6 version to download I look through my volitile file in Application data in xplorer but cannot get the file to copy and paste in windows to rename it. can anyone help me?
1 Install touch xplorer to device
2 Ensure that you have no media synced onto your device
3 Sync the alert tone you'd like to use to the deivce
4 Launch touch xplorer and navigate to content folder of zune
5 Locate the file you want (will not be known as the filename on your PC, which is why it's a good idea to not have any other media synced to your device)
6 Change the name of the file to "Alert-01" or 02 etc... upto 10
7 Use touch xplorer to copy the file and then navigate to the windows directory on your device
8 Paste the file and select Yes when prompted to over write existing file - NOTE that the original tone will be overwritten.

I know someone has the the instructions on the word "Sprint" to whatever we want it to be? Can you someone help me and anybody else out and post it please. Thanks in advance!
Can someone help me with this?
Does TF3D config or advanced config tool help you?
If it does i dont know what i need to edit or what needs to be done. I know theres an expert out there.
To change the Sprint Logo you see on the upper right of the hoem tab in TouchFlo3D, you need the following:
1 - Manila Editor from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414861
2 - The file "443d5315_manila" from your \WINDOWS\ folder on your device.
Once you have the file copied over (you can use ActiveSync if on XP, and browse to the \Windows folder on your Mobile device through My Computer - just make sure you're set to show all hidden files and system files and all that stuff - if using Vista, then it's best if you use TotalCommander on your device and copy that file to another location, such as My Documents on your device, then use My Computer and browse your phone and copy it to your desktop), start up Manila Editor and select the path containing that file.
You should see the one file show up in the list (happens to be "operator_logo.qtc").
Now, on the right side, you'll actually see the logo... 256wx64h - it's a transparent PNG, so, if you make a new graphic - make sure you create a transparent PNG... Then, in Manila Editor, click "Replace" and point it to the new graphic you've made. One complete, exit, and you'll now have to copy your new "443d5315_manila" back to the \WINDOWS folder on your phone...
If using ActiveSync and showing all hidden/system/operating system files, then you should be able to browse to the \WINDOWS folder on your mobile device via My Computer... Just drag the file, and overwrite the original.
If using Vista, then copy the file back to the My Documents folder on your device, and use Total Commander on the phone to copy it into the \WINDOWS folder on your device.
NOTE: If you're using Vista with UAC enabled, you will need to run Manila Editor as an Administrator.
Hopefully this information helps you out - I just did it a few days ago and the phone looks much nicer without that harsh yellow Sprint logo (I've put my work's logo, which, conveniently enough, matches the default blue/green theme, and looks great).
I really want to try this on my Diamond but I don;t have the 443d5315_manila in my Windows folder.
Is there somewhere I can get one? At the moment it just displays the default operator text but I want to add a logo.

This worked great. Replaced it with a pic I made.
Hi,
My stock ROM doesn't come with QuickGPS.
I have downloaded this one at [URL="http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=172223&postcount=2"]this page[/URL] along with [URL="http://rapidshare.com/files/69959229/HTC_QuickGPS.CAB"]this file[/URL] but nothing works.
I have followed these instructions :
I just downloaded the QuickGPS app and also the files form RapidShare and got everything to work on my Mogul within two minutes. In my office (a steel building) I am seeing 5 satellites and using 3 at the moment. Gmaps found the satellites and locked my position in within 5-6 seconds... wicked fast!
Now, how you too can do this:
1. Download both files to your computer, then extract them.
2. Create a new folder called HTC QuickGPS and put all three of the extracted files (HTC_QuickGPS.cab, QuickGPS.exe, QuickGPS.reg) in the new folder .
3. Sync your Mogul and copy the HTC QuickGPS folder to your storage card.
4. Open a file explorer on your Mogul, other than the stock one in WM6. I personally use Resco File Explorer 2007 because it allows you to overwrite files, has a registry and FTP plugin, etc. Whtever you use, it must allow you to overwrite files.
5. Navigate to your storage card and then to the HTC QuickGPS folder you just copied there from your PC.
6. Install QuickGPS by clicking on the HTC_QuickGPS.cab file.
7. Click on the QuickGPS.reg file and you will be prompted wether or not you want to import these registry settings. Click Yes.
8. Copy the QuickGPS.exe file to the \Windows directory in main memory.
9. Open PIE, Opera or another app on your Mogul that opens an Internet connection (I did not have to do this for it to work, I presume that is because I use Activesync for push from my Exchange server).
10. Open QuickGPS and click the Download button.
11. Tap the X to minimize QuickGPS (you may be able to close it completely, I have not tested that yet).
12. Open your GPS app and be amazed at how fast you get lock, no matter whether you are inside or outdoors.

When I start it, it tells me that the application has not been signed and it doesn't want to start at all.
I have, of course, installed the sdkcerts.cab.
Does anyone have a cab that can be used on TP2 ?
Thanks
OK, found out finally how to make it work :
1) I've installed this cab to main memory
2) I've copied QuickGPS.exe.0409.mui to QuickGPS.exe.040C.mui in \Windows directory
And now, it works
It seems that it was because of my French ROM version.
Just wanted to let you know in case it helps someone else
Can someone explain how to get the manila files off the verizon touch pro 2? I cant see the windows folder from my computer when the phone is connected. Is their another way to see the windows folder containing the manila files so I can back them up and modify them? Thanks in advance.
I use Resco Explorer to locate all files containing the word "manila" in the filename under the Windows directory. Then I copy and paste them over to my SD card. Then just connect to PC to extract them from SD card.
cfc_gui will pull them from your device with no need to copy/paste. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2798441#post2798441
Thanks, I will try this tonight
I have the 3VO rom on the htc snap and when connected to my win 7 pc I can not locate the /windows directory. I of course have the option to view hidden files checked but this was to no avail.
Hi there,
That is perfectly normal if you are trying to see it from the win7 mobile device center. Bill doesn't want you to mess with the system files. In order to access this directory, you have several options :
- install a proper file explorer such as Total commander or Resco file explorer on you device, and do it from there
- I think Mymobiler allows you to access this directory from the PC. Needs a check though, I uninstalled this program that kind of bugged me. see http://www.mymobiler.com/manual.aspx
Anyway, I would assume your problem does not come from the 3vo ROM.
Hi Guys,
I was playing around and found that you can set your own mp3 ring tone on windows phone 7.
1. Install TouchXplorer
2. Upload you mp3 to your device using Zune.
3. Open TouchXplorer
4. Browse to My Documents\Zune\Content\0100\00
5. Select the MP3 file you would like as you ring tone
6. Tap ... and tap Copy
7. Tap back until you get to the root of My Documents
8. Open My Ringtones
9. Tap ... and tap Paste
You should now have your ringtone available in the ring tones menu.
Hope this helps someone out there. http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
Works great !!!
Thanks for the tip. Works perfectly!
You can also copy .wma files to your device, use TouchXplorer to rename them to "Alert-??" (?? being 01 up to 10) and then copy them to your windows folder to have custom alert tones.
Does overwrite the tone already there however.
2011 Update
2011 Update. You can now use Windows Phone Device Manager instead of Zune to drop it right into the "My Ringtones" folder.
