As you can tell by my newbness/post count, I'm new here. Over the past months I have been researching and watching the xda forum and have concluded that this is a great place for information and discussion!
But I have a quick question.. I've searched for this already, but I have found no luck on the issue. For the S2u2 ver 0.98, I have been trying to figure out how to change the ringtone when people call my hermes (8525) when S2u2 is running. Does anyone know how to change this? I know i probably need to edit something in the reg. but i can't find out where it is on my phone or how to do it. =/ I'm kinda new to the whole ppc registry gig.
Can anyone help?
If you can help i would appreciate it, and it's great to be here! TK!
I just change my ringtone under sounds and notifications
Hey, thanks for the reply. I'll try installing it again to make sure I had my ring tone setting and will post back if anything changes.
haha it works now >.< I had the old version installed

Hi all,
Ive recently just flashed Mary's (HelloNasty)' ROM, but i cant seem to play MP3's or the like. Is it missing the codec?
Does any know of a fix or cab so i can possibly fix this?
I'd like to avoid flashing again just because of this problem (Just fixed it all up again).
Would really appreciate any help! Thanks.
Not that it's gonna help u a great deal, but I too run the Mary rom (which I find is superb cos it retains the vpn settings for me) and it runs mp3 without any problems and did so from day 1.
Maybe a reflash might cure your problem?

You're right!
Sometimes, I don't understand these guys...
I think they have a nervous finger, and press the first button they see...In this case was "New Thread"
It's a shame that users are not used to respect the rules around here....
It's because of these things, that the forum is full of crap...and when we want to search for something, we spend hours searching in the middle of sh*t
To everyone that was diss'n me. The reason why i started a new thread was because it might not have just been the Mary rom to have this problem occuring.
I placed it out in the WM6 section because if someone had come across the same problem, they would not know that they should go into the Mary Rom thread to find such a thing.
Im not ignorant of the rules k thnx, but i figured just incase someone else had this problem happen to them, it would be easy to find it here rather than specifically in the Mary Rom forum.
Both of you above had nothing good to say regarding the request, why add useless posts to the thread? Would it not in turn indicate you are putting junk into this thread? If you cant help with the answer then please dont reply. Instead maybe send me a private message instead to let me know that i should have started my thread in the Mary Rom.
I'm loving NFSFAN's new Bell ROM, but i'm not crazy about the slide to answer on the phone canvas.
I'm looking for a way to replace the slide to answer / ignore with buttons instead of a slider while keeping everything else the same.
I've researched different skins for this dialer (there are some cool looking ones out there!!) but none of these change the slider.
Any help would be appreciated.
This one works for me; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429179. There is also a black version somewhere Google 'Black Minimal Dialer'
I've now been using NFSFAN's ROM for a few days now.
Must say i've gotten quite used to the dialer. I like all of the other features. Especially the "in call curtain". While i'm still not in love with slide to answer I understand the concept of why it was created. If I want to press a button that's what the hardware key is for!!
I wasn't really looking for a new dialer, but i've learnt the slide is an integral part of the package.
Thanks for the response anyways. You were the only one to do so. (everyone else was probably busy shaking their heads!!!)
now mine might sound like a really stupid question, but can I install the opal's slide to answer dialer on my sprint htc vogue ? are all the ## codes working for you on your phone ?
Yes, everything works (911 etc)
In NFSFAN's words, the data connection is not active during a call, it just breaks the data errors.
The dialer is included in his ROM, i'm not really sure if the same one is found anywhere in CAB format. A quick google search for "opal slide to answer CDMA" should yield some results for you.

thanks jmitr for your patient answer and the links to the solutions.. really really appreciate your patience and yes I just installed it and working fine now.. love the new dialer...
i spoke too sooon... i installed the complete cab by mbarvian and then tried juggaloo's cab but it was for VGA graphics, i tried mbarvian and conflippers cab but that messed up everything...
just mbarvians cab - didn't display the incall screen properly.... it was all greyed out...
now i can't find a single good cab which displays everything like it should... i don't want to do any more trial and error and find out... please help me on this ...
i dont mind not having the canvas - atleast i get a bigger picture on caller screen and thats all i want right now...
I know s2u2 has a large picture to answer the phone with.
I don't use it anymore, I found it drained my battery too fast. With NFSFAN's rom and the opal dialer it isn't really needed anyways.
Sorry none of the links led to anything fruitful, my only experience with this dialer is in the custom ROM. Must say it has grown on me though!!

I've been using this on my Sprint Touch for months now with out any issues. Here's a link for a post I have up at PPCGeeks for you to check out . Please let me know if you have any problems. If you don't want the lock feature, don't install Albert's cab...

I had trouble getting the dialer to work initially also. It seemed to be tied to the rom build that something changed after the 20XXX rom build was released. If I used anything earlier it wouldn't work. If your on a stock rom that may be part of the issue. Not sure, but just my experience in fixing the issue.
It is tied to a shell component.

Hey thanks for the reply NFSFAN, the slide to answer was the only part of your ROM that I didn't really like......at first. I couldn't imagine going back to the old dialer now.
It is good to learn what's possible and what's not though, thanks again for the answer.
Cheers,
Jason

Codes don't work for me on the verizon beta rom. Is it just me or do you have to use the folder rather than the dialer?
I did some searching around regarding this but could not come up with any final conclusions regarding this issue. I'm posting this on behalf of a friend of mine who has a Dash. I know it's possible to set up ppcs to have Japanese input (i've set up my tilt to do so) but can this be done on a smartphone?
If anyone has any feedback regarding this that would be a great help! Thanks!

Yup its posible I've done it before my dash.
with english and japanese/chinese characters it was a .cab file that I downloaded from some company I delet it the file some time ago because I have the new rom from kavana that has english/chinese so I din't think I would need it anymore. The only proble I had was that it took alot of memory from the phone.
Hahahahaha sorry I cant post it. you should look for it better if you can't find it I think I have the download link bookmark on my friends PC and see if I can share it....
If you could post that that would be great. I've searched for some time and have had no luck finding it. When you installed it were you still able to input with english characters as well? I'm not familiar with how smartphones work.
Anyone else know if this is possible?

I really need to be able to play an extended ringtone and it seems the Blackjack II had a registry tweak to handle this. That tweak doesn't work on our TP2s tho.
I am honestly surprised more folks haven't inquired about this.
do a search on this forum for "NoRingToneLimit" - it is .cab file and it works.
I searched the forum and did not find any hits, so I did an advanced search which took me to the archives.
There is a reference to a fix for 6.1:
mikefordmustang.com/downloads/NoRingtoneLimit.cab
Can anyone confirm this works for 6.5?
Found this as well but I haven't tried it personally. Seems easy enough to test though if you want to give it a go.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

That is the same tweak I found on a google search that was said to work for the Blackjack II. There is no such entry for WM 6.5 on my gsm TP2.
I did add the entry, using a larger value, and it did not work for me.

I tested this on my gsm TP2 on WM 6.5 and does not work. It will only play 20 seconds of a lengthy mp3 file on local memory. Still looking for a tweak/fix!!

You might have already tried this, but did you search your registry to see if that key existed in some other location maybe? I have 6.1 or I'd go look myself...

You know, I did do a search, but it just occurred to me that I searched for files, not strings within the registry.
I am going to do a search on both FileSizeLimit and NoRingToneLimit as strings and see what it comes up with. Total Commander is proving to be invaluable right about now!

I do like TC and can't deny its swissarmyknife-like utility, but for when I just want to zip around in the registry, I like the look/feel of PHM_regedit better.
thx for the tip! i'll look into that ..
Use ceregeditor and browse your phone registry form your computer making it 100 times easier.
so I grabbed ceregeditor and yes indeed, it makes it sooo much easier to search/edit registry entries.
so ... my findings:
Installing NoRingtoneLimit.cab did put an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds:FileSizeLimit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default Value Data was set to 0 .. this did not work.
I increased the value to a high # .. i saw 10487200 as a possible value when I found the blackjack ii tweaks .. that too did not work.
Im guessing everything Im doing works just fine for WM 6.1 .. but nobody has figured out why it doesnt for 6.5. I hope there are others out there with more insight into this. I really dont want to go back to my old phone when I go OnCall this weekend!

It works on my AT&T Tilt 2 with 6.5 - Have Hallelujah Chorus (eleven minutes) as a ringtone.
well now i'm bummed even more!
i am going to uninstall the .cab .. reset .. and then re-install .. and reset to see what happens.
iv'e tried different things to come up with a solution and nothing appears to be taking: repeat notifications, filesizelimit, notificationlayoutnew.dll ... i get zilch on each!
wow .. 11mins!
well i am just so frickin' dissapointed in this thing now. i just cant fathom as to why a GSM model would be that much different than an ATT Tilt2.
I guess perhaps using one of the many available ROMs on this site could help? Any advice, anyone?
And that made all the difference!
It finally works!
I knew there had to be something weird about my setup that was causing this not to work for me. I was timing the length of the ringtone and while the longest was at 20 seconds, there were times when it was a little as 10.
I started thinking that perhaps something was intercepting or disturbing the process that killed the ringtone. I never thought to uncheck DISPLAY MESSAGE ON SCREEN.
This is what made the difference. Once the txt message screen timed out and disappeared, the ringtone died as well. Unchecking it allowed the ringtone/vibration to play fully. WHEW! I swear, of all the things to check last ... when will I ever learn!

Hahaha congrats! I was trying to figure out what the heck could still be keeping you from playing them properly, and I honestly wouldn't have thought of that either! I bet this will lead to a lot of "a-HA!"s in RhodiumTown tonight! lol
does anyone know where i can find the dogbark ringtone that was on the original tilt for the tilt 2? i searched and can't find it,thx in advance
dont wanna sound mean, but i just googled "dog bark ringtone kaiser" and found it in less than 10 seconds http://www.4shared.com/audio/jWnniYtE/Dogbark.html there you go man
thx,i didnt look under kaiser,sorry, thx again
your welcome man, whenever you need anything for your phone, dont use the more common name, use the htc name, you get better results
