How to Customize or silence startup sound - General Questions and Answers

I have a T-Mobile Shadow which I have just upgraded to WM6.1 with a rom from Erofich and it's great. Problem is the startup sound is really loud. Is there any way to silence the WM6.1 startup sound? It appears to be standard htc sound, so is there a file I can replace with a silent or different sound file?
Any help would be appreciated.

You can use Advanced Configuration 3.0 to add a new start up wav.

I tried installing Advanced Config as suggested but the program won't launch properly. Is that possibly because the phone doesn't have a touch screen? If so does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks

here you go... replace your BootUpHTC.wav (no sound).
extract it in your phone's Windows folder.

Thank you very much, silenced that dreadful racket! I had to go back to XP and Activesync to get it to copy into the Windows folder though. Got access denied messages when I tried using MSDC on Win7.

how to change startup sound ?

hi, after rebooting, my device will be ready after a signal "bip". Can I change this sound ?

did you mean the sound which comes when the device connect to GPRS or EDGE ??
if yes, this a system sound.
if you like to have a personal sound you can copy it to windows/startup
no, if you copy the sound into startup it will start WMP to play that sound.
When I use some Rom (like Pandora 1.05, NBD or else), I turn off my device and restart it, it'll be ready after a sound "bip" (which is from default.wav in \windows). And I want to change that sound by another one.

Can I disable the change volume sound?

Hey all,
First of all, I want to thank everyone here for the wonderful tutorials. On my first try with very little experience modifying mobile phones, I was successfully able to upgrade my 8125 to the latest TNT Professional release, and am loving it!
A minor annoyance for me is when I change the volume of the device... The default sound 'notification' that plays when the volume is changed is so stinkin' loud on the louder volume levels. Is there any way to change the notification sound, or even disable it all together? Thanks!
Same here. I'd love to shut this sound off, I swear that I read somewhere about some registry settings that need to get tweaked, but I didn't find it after one hour searching... Could someone be so kind and help me (us) out?
Thanks in advance!!
Greets,
Andreas
Replacing sounds
My so-far-fail-safe method is to replace the sound file.
1. in My Documents (or wherever but not /windows), make a copy of a wav you want to use (quieter, or even silent)
2.rename the copy of the happy wav to the name of the icky wav (you get to find out which wav it is, or maybe someone else can offer that)
3. move it to \windows, overwriting the old
In rom it doesn't necessarily actually overwrite, but it's enough to fool the system into using the sound you want. Same with 2nd splash screen.
I figure it's easy enough to be worth a try, anyway.
still have this issue on Wm6.5 energyrom phoenix 2
I cannot disable the volume change sound.
Tried looking for wav files, tried using advancedtweak (And other tweak programs).
I can only get them to shut off when in a call. I want them to be disabled forever. Any solution ideas
Hi,
When browsing the HD2 forums (I'm gonna get one in a few days, yay!) I found this:
75. Disable Beeps When Altering Volume
When you press the volume key you getting annoying beeps. This tweak allows to change the volume silently without the beeps.
HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume\Mute Change from 3 to 1.
It worked on my TP and on also on my Wizard (running WM6.1) aldo the initial setting for Mute was 7. Setting it to 1 did do the trick though.
Cheers,

Yeeeeeeeeeeeee finally! It works!

Changing the screen tap click sound, how?

How do i change the screen tap click sound in windows mobile?
I have looked for the audio file for that sound( the WAV file or whatever they are using) but i cant find it. I would like to change it to something of my own. The default sound is annoying and load (even if you choose the soft click under notification)
Thanks!
Anyone please can figure this out ?
I found many notifications audio but not the screen tap audio...

Boost FM Radio Speaker Volume

The Touch Pro FM radio speaker volume is very low, I can barely hear some stations, Even the Head set FM radio volume is low.
Is there a way to boost the FM radio speaker volume?
Please Advice
Best Regards
I agree. Would love to know how to do this.
Try this.
Unzip and copy in Windows dir using TotalCommander!

what are the values in the Audiopara3 to be modified for the FM Radio Volume?
Thanks and best regards
It boosts all sounds, external speaker as well as in call volume.
Worth a try, if it doesn't work remove using Total Commander.
Upon reboot the phone will rebuild one with defaults.
Risk to break something close to zero.
Theres also an option in DiamondTweak that enables you to boost the volume of the speaker.

I have trie the file, It does increase the volume all over, but the FM is still not loud enough, That is why I asked for which setting to modify to just increase the FM volume only.
Regards
Bump*
I'm hoping someone can figure out a fix for this. The radio is a great feature, but no good at the current low volume level.
Has anyone got any ideas with this?
This is also the one feature of the Touch Pro that infuriates me...
I cant hear the radio on the bus while commuting to work, but if i play MP3's its more than loud enough, i cant understand why there is such a difference.
Thanks for help.
what! i didnt even know the radio was working on the touch pro.
It works, just no stock software for it on the Touch Pro...I searched and couldn't find an original HTC FM Tuner program but do some searching. There's a guy on here who wrote a program that will tune into FM frequencies so you can listen to the Radio..not the best UI and I think he's still working on it so give it time...but you can listen to the FM radio given you have the multi-out adapter and some headphones.
This works!

Use the audiopara.zip file found above. This works for the Rhodium. The radio volume increased significantly. Thanks!

Equalizer that works over bluetooth a2dp

Hi,
Does anybody know if there is some sort of equalizer application available for the TD2? Prefferably one that works with a2dp. I use my diamond2 to stream music to my Parrot MKI9000 carkit via a2dp. The music sounds good but a little flat. The parrot only has an option to boost the bass. I would like to have a bit more control.
Thanx!!
I tried HD Tweak to activate HTC Booster without the cable headset connected.
But the equalizer settings doesn't have any effects
I also tried SRS WOW, but the 1.5 version was not able to run ...
Hopefully HTC activates the Booster for bluetooth devices with the next ROM.
Got SRS WOW working although a bit buggy
Hi.
I managed to get SRS WOW working. It is a bit buggy.
It doesn't remember all settings after a soft-rest.
Sometimes device won't turn on. Have to soft-reset.
Not all settings have a desired effect. It seems that the equalize options aren't optimized for the Diamond2.
But if you fiddle a bit with the settings you get quite a good sound.
The file attached is the version i got working.
Install the cabs, import the reg file, soft-reset and you're good to go.
Burning Wheels
Do you, or anyone else, happen to know if this will work with the original Touch (elf).
Alternatively can you recommend an equalizer that will work with bluetooth and the Touch
Thanks
I don't know if this works on the Touch (elf). Maybe you can ask this in the Touch (elf) forum.
