[Nov 5 08] Totally Control Your Ring - Create unlimited ring profiles

Development has ended.
Sound Option Builder BETA
DONATE FOR SOB
SOB allows complete control of how your phone responds to an incoming call. With SOB you can edit the script used by your phone when a call is received. This script, and the associated sound file (MP3 or WAV) results in sounds, vibrating, flashing LEDS, and so on.
SOB includes 5 quick set buttons preprogrammed with some helpful ring scripts. Use these scripts as starting points to create your own unique ring scripts.
With SOB you can even associate a different ring tone for each script you create. And you can preview your creations right in SOB.
For those using application launchers such as UltimateLaunch, Throttle, rlToday, MortScript, etc, SOB includes features specifically designed for you. Shortcuts can be created in SOB that when used with a launcher, or the start menu, there is no limit to the number of combinations of scripts and ringtones you can make. See the Command Line section in the attached readme file for more information.
With the ability to create unlimited ring scripts and pair them with any ring tones SOB is also a ring profile creator and profile switcher.

Interesting Software
I am looking for this kind of application for a long time due to I have to do it manually by changing the registry value. I guess this software change the registry value too.
The issuea are: i) program appearance in VGA is not correct (attached images); ii) same as changing the registry value, once I choose the Phone\Settings... to change other thing such as Service, band etc, the phone sound will be back to 'Ring'. The same with pointing to the Setting/Personal/Notification.

Hello,
that looks excellent.
with friendly greet

SOB does not supply ringtones. It controls how the phone rings. Please read the readme.txt or follow the links in post #1. In this release the only ringtones the brows buttone will locate are WAV and MP3 from My Documents and subfolders of My Documents.

There is a separate QVGA version uploaded to post #1.
I have no way to test. I hope it works for you.

This is a decision of Microsoft engineers, not me. Afraid I can't do much about that.

I am using HTC Universal which is VGA! And the screen is captured from that device. Anyway, I tried your new uploaded cab (You said the QVGA) but the program ask me to 'initiate the .NetCF with listed version...' I am using cooked ROM WM 6.1 (Ranju 7.7). Hope that infor help.

Nice looking peice of software
I wonder if something like this could be tweaked to delay the vibration for x seconds after the ring-ton starts?
Similar to the "Vibrate then Ring" mode, but in reverse.
Tim

You can vibrate after ringtone starts playing but the ringtone will completely finish before vibration starts. Your phone runs each command one at a time in sequence so they never overlap eachother.

The CAB has already had over 400 downloads. Anyone else have trouble with the QVGA version?

Sorry chuotdx. New CAB uploaded. Do not use the QVGA for VGA devices. The regular CAB is for VGA. I still cannot test it.

No problem, VGA and QVGA are confused. I re-download the cab file you supplied, then uninstall the current version on my Universal, clean the system by Memmaid then install your new cab file. Unfortunately, the problem exist as exactly same as my captured screen before (in 1st page). I saw you use Kaiser is QVGA device? It's hard for you to test on VGA device, isn't it?

More details? Your device, OS, .NetCF version?

QVGA and VGA Support
New CAB added to Post #1. Hopefully this one installation will support both QVGA and VGA devices. I have no device to test VGA.

How to increase the volume?

When I make VOIP calls, I can hear the speaker speaking, but the volume is very low, is there anyway to increase it? Thank u!

There is a thread in the general wizard section about boosting sound. To date, no one has completely figured out how to raise the volume, but there are ways to boost BT sound and speakerphone sound.
If you click on my name and check out threads I have subscribed to, you should be able to find the thread of which I speak.
Good luck.
And...if you find that golden goose, and figure out how to fully boost sound, please post it for us all to use.

There is a solution for HTC Touch Diamond. Maybe you can try something similar and see if it works on your wizard.

maybe you could upload the cab here?
has anyone tried it with the wizard? I do not remember having that file in my wizard's kitchen at all.
Is the registry in touch's oem? or is it already in sys?
I'd be willing to try this.. but cant download from that site at the moment. no computer on hand. it's at home, and have no patience for PIE. :/

WM6 Registry Editing Guide?

Hey guys,
Looking for a registry editing guide that explains a little more on the Windows Mobile registry.
Bought a Ubiqio 503G on the internet. The phone has great features but sucks as far as:
-In-call speaker volume
-MP3 ringtone volume
-Weak vibrate
Ubiquio does not support this device and eXpansys has very poor support, and a crappy tech. team.
I believe the guys on this forum have more knowledge than eXpansys.
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Much appreciated.

like with pc windows registry
every program can create registries
having whatever function for the program
as the programmer sees fit
so other then how to alter registrys there really is no general guide to
the registry

There's no dedicated guide on all registry entries, like Rudegar said, but better read this before starting to play around with registry:
http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/howto/how_to_edit_the_registry.html

Just dump your registry as a .txt file, put it on your pc (try ceregeditor) and do keyword searches until you find what you need. Play around a little with the applicable values (if found), but save the original file in case you mess up.

nice post WG very informative for users who havent tinkered with the reg before. I also like to use a desktop reg editor (whilst active synced) called CeRegEditor as well as a PPC one (PHM, Task Manager v3.1 etc), best of both worlds

Agree the best regieditor on desktop for WM is CeRegEditor, and the combining of FDC's TaskMgr.exe + Total Commander make us never need a standalone reg editing tool on device.
Plus for a real tweak addict better purchase the SKTracker, another 'tweaker's dream'.
I'm planning to repost the whole content on nir36's guide thread, a lot of code-adding work to do tho.
Edit: Done. Check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471521 This is a really useful thread for beginners.
Edit: I found this wonderful site really need some 'beginner-friendly' contents, or maybe need a seperate 'Beginner's Subforum'. Although it's already a heaven for developers, but beginners maybe less taken care of. I don't call beginners 'noobs' or 'idiots' because I'm a beginner too.

Agree. The developers know what they talking about, but the tens of thousands of mere mortals don't.
I have been reading for days and still don't know where to start to modify the Today screen, not to mention ROM.

[Q] Registry for backlight?

Hey I'm looking for the registry entry that controls whether auto-adjust backlight is on or off.
I searched and couldn't find it.
I'm doing the sashimi auto thing and would like to do all registry hacks at once.
If anyone has any other registry edits I should do, besides the ones listed in the tweak list, please fell free to list them. thank you.

Probably the best backlight program.. and very low overhead, uses almost no CPU

App which can change some registry value when is started

Hi all, is there any simple app, which can, when is executed, change some registry value to another? I am imagining in my mind some tiny exe file, which I can just run and it is done . Something fool-proof please, now I dont have too much time to learn Mort Script (but it is in my schedule )
Is there any solution for me? Or may I have to start downloading Mort Script manual
Thanks a lot for help! Have a nice day...
R.

The first thing on my mind is mort script.
So you are on the right track..

Folks, was this ever resolved?

pmsl look at Eq post above
Or look for a reg editor, probably you will have one in ur rom if its a cooked one.
