wm2005 is really a big step forward. However, I have a big problem with the clicking sounds when you choose a menu or an application. I wanted to remove those 2 sounds, but that's impossible since these are in Rom.
I can't find anything how to remove this hoorible clicks. I hope that someone has a suggestion.
thx
Why don't you just uncheck sounds fo "Events (warnings, system events) from the Sounds and Notifications in the Personal Settings?
I'm wondering if it's possible to change that clicking sound to another sound of my choice . . . Can any of the Tech Guru's Please Help ?
There is a way, you would have to search your device for the original sounds, back them up and override them with your own.
as long as you know the name of the sound you want to change; it's possible. for me, i changed the normal beep sound when the "G" icon comes up after a soft reset (GPRS). the name of that sound is "default". what i did was took a wav file i wanted to use, from my laptop i renamed it to "default", copied and pasted it to the windows folder of my unit. there will be a menu pop-up question saying something like "the file "default" already exists, do you want to replace it?" click ok and there you go; the default sound is different. the other built in sounds can be seen when you go to your sounds and notifications folder. example; the activesync sound can be changed by choosing from the drop down menu. these are the built in sounds; you can change the actual wav file by putting in a sound with the same name (like the one i did for the default sound). i think what you can't do is change the name of the built in sound...
hope that helps.
Yes , thank-you guys it works Gr8 . Only thing is that you need to use another file explorer like Resco etc etc if you want to replace the system sound cuz the built in Explorer won't allow it .

Does anyone out there have any good alarm tones as mine suck!!!
Alarms
you should be able to make your own out of anything you want. search for one, then cutdown sound and save as wav and put into your window dir. name it whatever you want and when you tap the bell icon in the alarm section you can scroll down and pick your new wav file.

All,
as you know, when sending a sms message, it notifies with a "message sent" icon and alert tone. i want to change that ulgy tone with something else. can someone tell me the reg edit location to do this? i dont see the setting in notifications which is why im thinking its a reg tweak. thank you in advance....
Please delete this reply - didnt fully read the question
my man, did you READ my post? i stated i can not find that setting in there.
refreshing this thread. can someone kindly help?
As far as I know it's not possible to assign a "sms sent" sound. That's just possible for MMS messages.
But you could use Advanced Config to enable the "SMS sent notification" in the tree "Messaging".
HTH
hello,
there is already a tone assigned . when you send a sms and the popup says "message sent", there is a sound associated with that. i know its a registry setting. its not something you can change the conventional way. this same sound has been on the 6700 and 6800.. im just looking for the reg setting.
if anyone can tell me where the sms reg tweaks are in the reg tree, i could just look around... i just dont know where to begin.
as smart as everyone is on this forum i figured this wouldl be super easy...
i appreciate anyone who can help.
System Notification
Of course you can change the SMS Sent sound. Except that if you change the below string, it is gonna be the default system notification whereby you can change it to whatever you like from control panel. Here is the string: -
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Default]
@="System Notification"
The above is gonna name the notification so that it appears on your control panel > change the sound file from there.
Njoy it...
thank you for your post!
i am not clear on the "@=system notification". what do i do with that?
further, in the string you typed "dafau lt" with a space between. was that meant to be typed that way? i know one false move can muck up the registry so i would like to make sure i have you correct.
i see the entry but its "default".... i also see i can just rename the sound, but if i can get it to show up in the notification tab that would be cool.

The @ is the string value called "Default" that reflects the name above. The sapce was unintentional result as the copy & paste just screwed it up

Put mp3 into "My Documents\My Ringtones" for RingTone
Put mp3 into "My Documents\" for SMS Tone
Cheers.
you can also just put the mp3s onto the root folder of your sd card, then you can choose those mp3s as ringtones in sound & display...

What I meant is how to change sms ringtone as mp3, but you were first with an answer thanks
Copy *.mp3 into folder Windows\ ...............!
I dont know if this has been posted before, If it has then my bad I just thought of this method.
1st. Go on the market and download a free app called " Zedge "
2nd. Open Zedge and select " Notifacation Sounds "
3rd. Select a random one because we are going to replace it. (I selected Law And Order) you will see a arrow down near the bottom press that and it will download
4th. Close Zedge and connect usb to computer " Mass Storage "
5th. Navigate to " zedge\notification_sounds "
6th. In the folder you should see a mp3 file, in my case its called "Law And Order_1.mp3" Depending on what tone u downloaded on zedge your file name might be different.
7th. Now copy the file name in " zedge\notification_sounds " and replace the name of the mp3 you made with the name of the mp3 in " zedge\notification_sounds ".
EXAMPLE: Txt tone.mp3 changed to Law And Order_1.mp3
8th. Drag and drop the tone u just renamed into " zedge\notification_sounds "
Select Copy/Replace
9th. Disconnect the phone and go into Settings/Sounds/Notification ringtone
10th. When you select Notification ringtones you will get a pop up saying Android System or Zedge ringtones. Choose Zedge ringtones
DO NOT CHECK "Use by default for this action"
11th. Lastly select the file name and press "Set Ringtone"
In my case I selected "Law And Order"
I usually just place whatever sound file I want on the internal SD in an existing folder called Media> Audio> Ringtones (or Notifications). Then it will always show up in Settings> Sounds> Phone Ringtone.
Or am I missing something?
I use handcent sms, Like zedge it gives you the option to choose it in settings/sounds/ringtones or notification, with that you can choose music anywhere on your phone, it's all there in one list, no file swapping.
Zedge is actually easier to use than that.
After you find the one you want, tap on his and there will be a down arrow (download). Once downloaded, the arrow turns into a cicle which you can tap on to set as w/e you like. Same process for the wallpaper

Yes, that is if you want to use the sound you actually downloaded, the post is about swapping out the sound to something else...

You know what- I never thought about it until now that you mentioned it...I think the file was a remnant of an old backup I did to the EXT SD one time and it never got cleaned out. Funny that it was accidental find.
That explains why I was having dupe ringtone issues a while back. *facepalm* lol
I'm pretty sure stock ROMs (at least Eclair) don't let you change the text tone for yourself. I remember looking a few thousand times to no avail before I flashed Andromeda. From then on, I've been able to use any tone on my SD card.
I use Whoisit for the same thing, an all around great ringtone manager that sets a different tone for each persons sms, mms, email, and call plus VIP section so set people will ring through even if the phone is on silent. Not to mention it covers FB status, Scheduling profiles, wifi on of with profile. plus setting the stock ringtones and notifications to anything you want.
