Alarm Tones WM6.5?

In previous versions (6,6.1) all you had to do was drop a .wav in the windows folder and hey presto...
I'm currently on a Touch Cruise with pcarvahlo latest rom and the alarm tone shows up but if i try to select it it skips it and goes to default.
Are there any new tricks i need to know to get this to work ?
The rom is great as is WM6.5 but this is officially doing my ed in!

I found this very useful:

It seems to need to be a particular format. Just done it today and it worked.

NoDo. Want to get it right now? [Not tested with HD2 yet]

So NoDo was finally released this morning.
Well, for the EU people anyway (don’t get me started).
Windows Phone 7, by default, stores your operator identifier in a sneaky registry key, which is checked by the Windows Update Client running on the phone. This identifier is then used to check if the updates have been approved for your operator. If they are slow, like Telstra here is in Australia, you’re going to be waiting a long time.
So, let’s tell you how you can “un-brand” (this won’t remove the boot splash screen) your phone so it appears to be a generic handset to the Update Servers.
Your device needs to be dev-unlocked for this to work. Sorry folks.
1. Download this zip file and deploy the 3 xap files onto your device.
2. Run the ChevronWP7.Ringtones.xap and wait till it displays “Ringtones added… and CustClear.provxml underneath”
3. Run the TouchXplorer app, navigate to My DocumentsMy Ringtones click on CustClear.provxml and select Copy from the Application Bar.
4. Navigate back inside TouchXplorer to the Windows folder.
5. Select paste from the Application Bar, this should scroll right to the bottom and put a copy of CustClear.provxml in the Windows folder.
6. Now run the Connection Setup application and click on the Ok button (it’s the one with the tick).
And now you’re done and free to re-connect to Zune and check for updates.
Again, this is ONLY for HTC devices.

Hi guys! I didn't test this method for HD2 yet cause I still on Android. Try it out.

Has this been cooked for the HD2 already? I'll give it a try as long as I know it won't brick my HD2

IT ONLY SHOWS PHONE UPDATE FEB 2011
any idea why i am not able to see nodo update

There is another thread about this already in Q&A and General. It seems as though this method is for native WP7 devices to work around zonal or carrier based restrictions.
It has been tried on an HD2 in the other thread and the same registry issues that affected the February update prevail. This does not appear to be a solution for HD2 owners.

just tried out and still having the error happening same error

Yeah, this tread can be deleted, seems to be not working for hd2 in any way.

i have big problem my phone is locked ... and i cant unlock it since they disconnected the unlock tool what should i do guys

okay okay i fixed the unlock thing and everything and did this but this didn't work out on hd2 .. ill try more and let ya know guys

Yea, just playing around, problem is in registry.

hello,
do you know if it works on HD2 ? if I try, will I keep everything (sms, apps, ...) ?
thanks !

This does not work, it has been said hundreds times

Has everybody been taking crack lately?
How do you expect to be able to do a official update to NoDo when our roms are modded to work on the HD2, its not a native rom so even if you could get it to update through official channel it would very likely break the installation anyway.
Use some common sense guys have some patience and wait for the update to be cooked into HD2 rom.

[Q] Custom SMS tones for the quantum

My girlfriend is trying to get custom sms tones for her quantum. Touchxplorer does not recognize the filesystem of the phone so i dont know if this can be done. Any help is appreciated.

i think touchxplorer updated to support the quantum, i have file access. about to test custom sms brb.
- Welli can't seem to find the "My Ringtones" folder that's supposed to be in my documents. and cant use the search button to search the windows directory (alot of items there) so for now i'm at a loss

Where did you get this updated version from?

custom ringtones is possible via ringring. custom sms tones is a different story.
I've successfully installed touchexplorer but was never able to get access to the files needed to change the current alert sounds. I think the access rights are limited on phones other than HTC on which touchexplorer was developed.

So is there any possible way that quantum users will be able to get these in the future?

wait for Fall Mango update. Or wait for further app development for unlocked devices. Eventually it will happen (e.g. ringtones has been accomplished without waiting for MS).
edit: just see that the newest Advanced Configuration Tool seems to address your problem. looks like you can change sms alerts to ringtones that are installed. will try this now.
edit2: it lists all available tones on the phone, lots of them, however, it doesn't list the custom installed ringtones unfortunately. at least the number of choices increased.

So the mango update will include support for custom sms tones? Not just ringtones?

Has anybody found a way to get custom sms tones yet?

[Q] problems with xap and phone lock

I am on XBmod and Yuki's 7720 mango.
The day before yesterday all my sideloaded xaps would not open and returned the "revoked by microsoft, please uninstall" message.
I read around and it seems that the phone had become locked (possibly interop locked), so yesterday I tried to (b)ackup and send the DEV_UNLOCK.CAB which succeeded to install. However I still got the revoked message.
So I did a 1234 gogogo reset and set up activation etc. Interestingly, this did not affect my extrapartition as I assume a settings/about reset would. Also interestingly, I was able to (r)estore from cab sender, and all my apps reappeared (I did not check if SMS were restored doh!), but the revoked message reappeared too!
So I did another 1234 reset and set up phone and zune, and was able to sideload apps again. After a while of access to these apps, suddenly all of them wont open at all. On touching the app icon, it does a wiggle and thats all, no message.
So I tried to send DEV_UNLOCK.CAB but it didn't work because already unlocked.
Also, I have exceeded my 5 phone zune limit and can't sync apps until 23/10.
I have a feeling that we need to be full-unlocked as in DFT rom,
Also I might try WP7 root tools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265321 interesting reading) after another reset.
Does anyone else have this problem with this ROM or any thoughts?
Edit; WP7 root tools unavailable for htc as yet
Edit 2; found to be advanced config tool 1.4/tweaks/prevent re-lock. Do not use this with this ROM it somehow interferes to ruin your xaps

HD2 Windows phone All Rom errors and problems type here

This topic was opened for beginners and for those who have problems
friends help Public support will :good:
Please write here all your problems
I'm sorry for my bad english

nice idea for one topic where people can check problems and solve... maybe also good idea to add to first topic links with info for solutions to people can find easy....
here is my contribution:
Chinese region problem:
- this problem show when you use first time your Live account with WP7.8 ROM's... this is because all Chinese ROM's automatically lock to China region
SOLVE:
- try reset region (link in my signature) or open new Live account. flash "HD2_Pdaimatejam_Rom_Wp7.5_Tango_7.10.8779.8_v8.4". set your desired region and login with your new Live account. Downlod something from Marketplace to lock region. Now you can flash 7.8 ROM and use Live account...
Problem: 3G or data connection not working in latest Pdaimatejam ROM
- Solve: use 3G cab fix (first link in my signature).
For many other problems read install tutorial from my signature...

cabSend problem
I updated HTC HD2 to Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.8 OS 7.10.8858.136 RMT v8.7. This is my first WP7 ROM install. However, when I run CABsender.bat or wCabSender, update of any CAB always fails due error 0x800705B4 : timeout/not enough space. Computer sends CAB to the phone and then phone reboots. After reboot and MAGLDR phone stays black for 30 secs, than it shows "connect USB" image and after 30 seconds it reboots. WP7 says that update was unsuccessful, CAB sender reports error 0x800705B4 "Timeout/not enough space".
I have 4GB SD card and phone recognizes it fine (shows that I have 3.04 of 3.54 GB free). I tried to reflash phone ROM without SD-card, CAB sending has the same problem. I have read about this kind of problem, however it is not clear what can cause this issue.
P.S.although most of the phone and live services work fine, many programs like "Leo advanced", "Program manager", "Connection setup" do not launch.

Somehow it depends on the ROM you used. for example the below ROM developer clearly mentioned Low MIC Volume as "Known Minor Bugs" on his ROM thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953078
Try another ROM and my experience i had good MIC and Speaker Volumes with pdaimatejam WP ROM 8.7 Version.:good:

After installing
Hi
Well, I tried the latest wp 7.8 rom, trying this tutorial: Tutorial Windows Phone 7.8 On HTC HD2 15.Dec.2012 (Windows 8) Full English by JuicyBoose.
But I had a lot of troubles:
1 - Almost all apps don't work:
Office, ie.. etc won't even open!
2 - Wifi don't work:
I share my connection in my computer in wifi using connectify hotspot, it worked fine on android and WM6.5, but don't unable to connect using WP7.8
3 - WP7.8 don't read my memory card:
My Kingston 16Gb SDCard is not recognized...
4 - My changes are not saved:
After changing color of tiles, their size ... When I reboot the phone, it became red, with the same tile sizes in first boot.
Somebody save me? I'm really a huge fan of WP, but cannot run it on my htc LEO
Thanks in advance

Thanks so much for your rapid reply!
I used pdaimatejam ROM, and unfortunately it didn't work fine.
I guess I'll try WP7.5, and try if those things will work on it

7.5 work better for me than 7.8. I could never connect to the internet with 7.8 and with 7.5, I never have a problem.
