you just responded to it. just kidding. seriously though, i couldn't agree more. give some indication of what your looking for/need help with in your title.
Thread title changed!
(hopefully it's clear enough)
search for softkeyapplet.cpl
read the information on Smartskeys in this thread. some of the custom rom builders have it pre-installed in their roms, since the program definitely helps with one handed use.

Its great, except this is the questions and answers section, saying google it (without even a proper answer in the list) doesn't necessarily get the job done.
"set ringtone ppc" does the job proper. Everyone knows where google is, they probably used it to find this site. The Purpose of the q&a section is not to promote google traffic. If you are going to refer someone somewhere, please make sure you refering them to exactly the right place.

Here are some pieces of software that help you set and further customize windows mobile beyond what it is native to:

I wasn't planning on using it in the Q&A Section of course -
Being a team player!
But it will be fun to use in other cases sometimes. I will of course change the auto google search to be relavant to the topic of discussion and make sure that it directs to helpful links. All in fun

I know with my device - Audio Manager has the feature to set MP3 as ringtone.
You can follwo advice above also - . I suggest using a trimmer program to cut the MP3 to save space on your device though.
Another cool app you might want to take a look at for MP3 ring tones is the mp3 ringtone randomizer found at this link here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370527
just direct the program to the specified folder with your mp3 ringtones and it will automatically randomize your ringtone for each call. I love this.

Sorry, just trying to be funny, but the first link in the list tells him how to set an MP3 as a ring tone, and the second link in the list tells them how to set a message alert. First two links answered both his questions. What could be better than that ?
This is question and answers, but even so, come on . That is Cell phone 101 , read the manual, do a site search ( I have seen that question a hundred times ) make an effort. In some countries they prohibit you from ever owning a PDA again, for those questions.
Just , seriously, for clarification, are those the types of questions that Q & A forum is for ?
Yup - Any and every member needs to feel that they can ask any question - no matter what - even extreem "Noob" questions in the Q&A section without being flammed. It is asked that every member respect this and if answering a question in the Q&A Section that you don't just say "Search" or "Read the WIKI" but at least provide links to WIKI if you are referring to this. I personally don't see the harm in the link you provided "although funny" serves two purposes. You didn't flame the OP for asking silly question but provided a useful (and funny) link that pointed him in the right direction to answer his question and aslo made a statement that a simple search would have answered the question. I see no harm in that either as there are a lot of people who do not take the time to search for themselves or they just don't know what keywords to use in the search field. (You also provided hints on what kind of search words to use) When I answer questions in the Q&A Section, I Provide links to where they can find their answer to their question or just sometimes answer it right there it it is an easy question; however, after answering I sometimes point out that searching using certain keywords would have yielded results (I like your way better) There are a lot of questions asked that seem rather simple and "Noobish" to us, but to beginner's they need to be shown how to properly use this forum sometimes and I think that the Q&A section is a wonderful thing for everyone because, there is so much to learn and it can be very overwhelming especially for new commers.
This should work for you...
Following the raptious support and humiliation ive suffered, i guess i can only blame myself for not only including what phone i have (htc touch hd) but more so not taking the time to research such questions properly!
Unfortunately i havent had 5 mins to myself to play with all areas of the phone, but now ive managed to sort the ringtone situation out, aided by the mp3 trimmer!
I guess its easy for those high up on knowledge to look down and laugh when you dont know jack, but hey done now, although saying that, i cant find where i can possibly delete some of the ringtones/beeps that come as standard, maybe someone could help me out there? again would be appreciated.

Firstly, have a sense of humor dude, or you won't last very long here
Secondly, find those files in your ringtone folder with file explorer, or in your windows folder, file explorer>my device>windows your files will be in there.
I did laugh at some of the replies mate dont worry, and thank you for your help though, i did try deleting the tones but kept coming up "error deleting file" so i cant delete anyway but thanx

The " base " ringtones that come with the rom, are written into the rom and cannot be deleted. All other tone and notifications can be added and deleted anytime.
alright cheers, but i set couple songs to be ringtones, ive since deleted them from windows media library and on file explorer on the phone, but still they show up as available to choose as a tone????
Yes but did you delete them from the /windows folder, that is where they are played from.
Then Soft reset.
yep i did that, and still there available to choose as tones!
Hi All,
I have a what may be a DUMB question from a relative n00b.
Now, believe it or not, I have searched for this answer. So please no "your an idiot comments".
I was wondering whether anyone has put together standalone custom sound themes. I mean like full sound sets that do not change the visual but set up an entire sound and notification set.
If there is a particular name for this kind of scheme, please let me know.
As a general hello to all, I have been using this site and PPCGeeks (seemingly the same forum users) and I have to say, the developers have done wonderful things. A general thank you for all your hard work.
Best regards,
Osiris
I've searched high and low and haven't found this question worded this way. I can't post to the development, so I am asking that someone in here helps me.
If I were to search through the coding and find where the phone directs its display to the screen, then find in the code where gingerbread sends the music to the A/V cable (3.5mm), use the two to write a code to send the display to the same location, and then add a setting to turn it on and off, what would happen?
I need time to go through some tutorials and figure out how exactly to start coding with android. I only have experience in C++, Visual Basic, and HTML. I was just wondering if this was one thing that has been attempted to get TV Out to work. I work around 80 hours a week so it would be very helpful to get input and save me the tutorial time.
ps. First post here ever, and I know I'm not even on a beginner level when it comes to programming android. So only productive responses please.
First post FAIL. There are ROM-specific stickies in the Q&A subforum and this should have gone in the CM7 one. Please do a search before starting a new thread and it is better to post to an existing thread rather than start a new one. Had you searched you would have discovered that TV Out works with Gingerbread.
Hi all,
This thread pertains to the inbuilt Internet Calling feature on Gingerbread. By default, it uses g.711 but I use an audio broadcast unit which requires g.722.
Is anyone able to help me, with finding out where the prefs are for the default SIP client, and how to enable g.722 as Mon codec de preference?
Many thanks
Perhaps I should post this in Dev...
Well, according to the rules, I'm not allowed to post a development based question in the dev forum. Apparently "If it's not about a ROM, it's not allowed in the development area" - perhaps the 'Dev' area should be renamed 'ROMs', and a separate Development Area should be opened?! That way, serious questions won't get overlooked and moved down so quick with the masses of repeated questions from new members.
Anyway - thats my rant...
Here's my actual question - reposted:
Hi folks
OK, this isn't ROM related as such, but it is definitely development related, hence posting here. I'm not a programmer, but I know my way around config files etc. usually. What I'm trying to find out, is this:
Can I adjust the 'built-in' VoIP Client to use a different codec? There's no options available in software, but the config for the client must be somewhere - question is, WHERE would it be? If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'll report my findings
There's a few VoIP things I want to customise, but using the native client, rather than a third party app.
I'm not after a spoon-fed solution - just the clues where to look so I can sort it out.
Many thanks
Just unzip any ROM and look inside,
That would spare you own phone and you can check every single file.
Btw, apk are zip files as well...
I've had a look around, but still haven't found the right things.
I guess the 'Internet Calling' function is part of the main 'phone' app, but I can't find any settings or config files for this.
It should be such a simple change to make; but I'm stuck at the first hurdle!!
