Ok, so I've used Nextel before and don't care for PTT very often. However, PTT is pretty nice when you're doing cable jobs and have numerous brief calls.
I know I've seen a handful of ROMs that are PTT compatible, but am really looking for a more current one.
Is it possible to cook PTT back in using Alex's kitchen?
Does the base ROM have to be ATT?
Is it possible to dump say Laurentius' shiny new FAST rom and add it in?
OK What if YOU USED THE SEARCH FUNCTION?
I think You should ask about Cooking it in A Cooking Kitchen Thread.
Mods here is another redundant threadKyphur
Mods Please close this thread.
He told you right. But more importantly select a cooked rom that has PTT functionality already enabled. _Alex_ had one. I belive Sleuth did as well.

But what if i have a comment on this... Actually i dont think its redundant, no one has ripped PTT out and made it work, so im going to open it back up momentarily..
Im not sure if this will actually work, but it might be worth a try... the only issue you might run in to is with the dialer... you will need a PTT compatible dialer.
Thanks Shogun I'll give it a shot and see.
Other two guys - shut up. I know how to search after being on the forum for 2 years. Used forum search, google search, different search terms, you name it. I know I saw it, but can't find it...redundant thread my ass, see if you can find another thread like mine.

I re-opened the thread after being closed for a reason... dont make me close it again, so please play nice!
I'd have to agree with the OP. I use PTT on the daily, but a lot of the roms I like don't include it. I know it's a dialer issue, the question is, how do we fix it?
Sure we can use cabs and have *partial* functionality of PTT, but I'd really like to know who's chirping me regardless. The cabs don't give that. So since we all know it's a dialer issue, how do we fix it so that we can use any dialer *and* the PTT cabs?
That's where we need to focus. If only I could get a damn kitchen to run correctly on my laptop! LOL!
If someone can pull all the necessary stuff out for the horrible looking dialer, or make their own.. then we should be able to merge with my PTT cab and everything should be fine! I just dont know much about dialers..

1.) Read Dutty's thread. Search for HTC Home Customizer....
2.) Read post #2 in Dutty's thread of why you have no sound Probably because you haven't upgraded your radio.
what about a working homescreen customizer?

i had the same problem...
1/ you need to use Total Command to move your HTC Home from the root directory to "Program Files".
2/ uninstall & Reinstall HTC Home custom
3/ Launch HTC HC and customize
It should work. Anyway, i just encounter a problem.. Your favorite contacts will be removed after a reboot.
oh well, need to do a search on this... good luck..
This one works great for me.

Try this for a search option. However even the xda-dev search should have yielded an answer for the radio issue!

is there a trick to getting the customizer work on windows 6.1 dutty
I hate admitting when I do something stupid, but it took me hours to figure out how to get the Home Customizer to work. I kept reading about how you have to move the Home Customizer to the "Program Files" directory. But it was already in that directory.
When I finally READ the post, instead of just skimming it, it said move the "HTC HOME" directory to the "Program Files" directory. I did that using Total Commander. It finally worked.
One small detail missed, cost me hours of research.
On the plus side, I did find some more cool stuff.
Edit: And I have the Dutty 6.1 installed

congrats on figuring it out. Unfortunately, I have been known to skim as well. Learned the hard way though. It's all good. Learning experience.
I knw this maybe a VERY stupid question but can the PTT application and button be reenabled under any of the cooked rom's. I have done much Googling (MUCH) and except for CHANGEING THE PTT Key MAPPING and can't find any info or .cab file for enabling that function. Thanks all. Very long time reader but not poster since I like to figure stuff out on my own IF possible (lol)!
I tried this in general forum with no response. PTT works in 6.0 but it seems like all 6.1 ROM's have it disabled? Am I correct?
Simply, I need to use the PTT functionality but would like to use it combined with using 6.1 ROM's if i can...
I've been looking for the same thing for a while yet. Seems like the only way to get it is to wait for an official ATT 6.1 ROM. I have hope for the new one that came out but haven't flashed yet.
PTT is not in most roms, not just disabled. Kyphur was working on a cab for PTT a while back, but he stopped because of the lack of PTT users that were available to test.

Not a lot of interest in PTT
I would agree that most people do not need or want PTT, but there are a few of us that do, and I can confirm that the new ATT 6.1 test ROM does, in fact, include PTT so there is finally an option for those few of us.
Maybe a stupid question but what does PTT do?

Thanks all for your fast responses. I am also one of the few to utilize PTT for personal and work. I also just in the last 5 min also confirmed that the 6.1 Test AT&T Beta does have PTT and does function good. But to be able to install a cab so we can utilize it in all kaiser rom's would be great. Will keep on reading and checking and posting more!!! Its a good feeling to not feel alone in this kaiser universe lol...

I too would like to utilize PTT feature I am installing the ATT Test Rom now and will see how everything works.
you can only use the ptt function in att based roms. no one has hacked the ppt function to be used in non-att roms.
edit:
@ Laurentius26
PTT=push to talk, basically a walkie talkie like funtionality
Aha... that sounds cool!
I will look into this soon as I finished my ROM.

Try this cab and let me know if it works. It should assing PTT to the PTT button.
why do some post "suggested" that this is free ??? ( just install & use/test ...etc ) ... ???
while this post by "mchapman007" with info from the WIKI suggested that it's a subscription based service ??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381104
I tend to believe it's a subscription service ... because if it were free, the phone company could be losing some money ...
and how do you initiate a conversation ??? ( privacy ?? ) ... or does one talk and evryone within range can listen in like walkie talkie ??
here in Canada, we have "TELUS/MIKE's network" ... they have their own phone type and service specifically for that purpose, gears towards business/industrial ...etc
UnicornKaz, PTT is definitely not free. Push to Talk is a service that AT&T provides for around $10 a month. Official Tilt roms have it assigned to 40C6 or the PTT button. I personally don't use it, but I think it's a lot like Nextel/Sprint's walkie talkie service.
I think because it's an AT&T only service and not many people use it, no chef puts it in their custom roms. I haven't seen to much demand for it.
By the way, anyone try my cab? Does it work? I see 2 downloads so far...how about some feedback.
It would be cool to have a kind of VOIP walky talkie.
My girlfriend and I are having both a Kaiser

It looks like the PTT cab removed the PTT button from the buttons menu? Is that by design?

Not sure if I'm understanding you right, but if you already had PTT why did you install my cab? The cab installs correctly (make sure you reboot after install) and runs the program (you will get a prompt warning you that you will be charged). Just don't know if you can communicate through it (any results? anyone?).
thx
Just got online. Trying cab file now.... will be bacj

Works great on 2 HTC ROMS except for sound effects... Looking into that now.... Thank u so much...
im looking for the files, or maybe even a .cab installer of the htc sliding sounds application. ive searched around on here for hours, and all i can find is the program by teirmann(sp).
That would be cool for the WM6.1 slider as well.
i just want to get the offical htc sliding sounds to test out stuff with. if anyone can get a dump of those from a rom or w/e, that would be great.
Hey guys, i just rough drafted a wiki page of how you can make your own sliding sounds on the kaiser.. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Sliding Sounds
also theres this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382966
You can find a couple sliding sound cab's there. I created two one is a shotgun pump and the other is a golf theme i created for someone.
So head over there, make your request and if i can find the right wav's i'll create it for you. or go to the wiki page i created and see if u can follow it.
yep, problem is tho, i dont have a kaiser. ive got a hermes. i wanna just test out the HTC software from the kaiser for my own curiosity.
hmm dont know if there is a software for it, just some registry files.
folow that wiki page and try to create them and see if it'd work for u.. i'd try it for u but to be honest.. i have no clue where my hermes is.
ive tried the registry thing, im pretty sure it also involves a control panel applet as well... i guess thats what i want/need then.

you can rip it off one of the kaiser roms. should be "keyboard sliding sound.cpl"
i think u need to look for the trigger that tells the device to activate a sound once the screen orientation is changed.
awesome, any idea how i can rip the cpl file from one of the roms???? i have brief access to a Kaiser(friend at work), so if its something that i could get from the phone while its in operation??? or any tips on how i could rip it out of the rom?? btw, i know nothing about cooking rooms or anything.
http://tiermann.net/index.php?optio...cle&id=2:slidesound&catid=2:PPC Apps&Itemid=2
yep, have u bothered reading the thread at all??? first post i said i dont really like that one. i just want to experiment and try to get the one from the kaiser rom.
Hey, if you're still looking for the Slide Sound cab file PM me and I'll send it to you. It is the Native HTC Slide Sound app that came on the Mogul but it works on the Touch Pro.
Hey, if anybody still needs the sliding keyboard sound on their HTC phone send me a PM. I have the Native HTC app and made a cab that has extra sounds with it.
Basically as the title states. I've been looking around (but never gotten around to) remapping the ptt button to something else. The logical thing for me is the camera. I have the long press key for the answer phone call set to voice command. That said with all the reading I've done I see ALOT of people have been setting the PTT button to camera so it would make sense if we had a really easy cab install for this.
Anyone up for the challenge? I would if I knew how!
Thanks,
Aaron

hi guyz & gals, sorry I know it should have not been asked here, but I found it more of ROM related query rather than anything else, so here it is.
Few days back I tried a ROM modded by soft4vn.net people, it came with a dialer, a normal stock dialer which I didn't like & wanted to change since then.
I have some cab's of phone canvas & tried them all to no avail. I am still not able to see the canvas properly coming on the screen.
I wonder if the dialer is locked or something else that its not allowing me to change it to Phone canvas. BOB & other Cook's have already given it an option to change the dialer. but this ROM is not allowing me to inspite of the fact that there is nothing specific to their ROM.
Just looking for your help if someone with same experience can help me. That would be great.
Sorry Dave or anyone else who's on duty, if I have posted in wrong section, but believe me I found this one the right one & you can delete it once the problem is sorted out...
Thanks
Sak
What ROM is it? 6.0, 6.1 or 6.5?
I did this too, with the MBarvian opalphonecanvas. Always installed the cab with flight mode enabled and killed the cprog.exe process. You could try this if you haven't already.
I am using 6.1. Hey bro cryonic90, It just didn't work. Poor I am still getting the same problem after every tweak I could perform. Thanks for your concern friends.
I am still waiting for a solution friends. hope there must be one.
Here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3400139&postcount=18 think that's your answer, well not really an answer but saying why you can't.

LOLz Thanks bro, I was suspecting this as an old build problem, thanks for your reference, I am using inesoft for time being. Hope I can get hold of those .dll's in cab file. Lets see how that becomes possible. Cheers.
