How do I - "Assign Ring tone".

Hi,
Is it possible to "assign a ring tone" to a contact. I have looked but can't find the option.
Rob.

Select the contact you want to assign a ring tone to, then menu/ Edit, scroll down the list until you find RingTone a tap the stylus in the box, the pop-up contains your ringtone list, simply select the one you want - Mike

Mike,
I dont get the "ring tone" option for some reason when I go into the edit option.
Rob.

Rob, what make of device are you using?, when I select a contact then Menu/ Edit the following options are listed:
Name
Picture
Job title
Department
Company
Work tel
Work Fax
Work addr
IM
E-Mail
Ring tone
Web Page
Office loc
Home tel
Home addr
Categories
etc etc etc
11th entry in the list is RingTone, tap the stylus in the empty field to the right of Ring Tone and select your tune from the list - this works on both my HTC P3300 and T-Mobile Compact III - Mike

contact has to be in the phone, not at the SIM card...
Good Luck

Touchflo settings

Hi,
I am trying to find out the solution how to change the names of application with touchflo settings. When I run App Launcher I can see 6 options: email,sms/ems, ie, tasks, comm manager and calender.
I do not know how to change the names. The same situation with MediaHub options: music, photos, videos - how to change the names.
The last question about touchflo is how to activate it for a longer time. I mean no to push "windows" every time I come out from touchflo.

First question; Start -> Settings -> System -> Touch Settings
You can configure the 6 program buttons and the Mediahub.

I know how to change programs in "launcher section" but don know how to change signatures in when cube is activated
The same situation with "mediahub" I know how to change the program but do not know how to change signature under it when cube is activated.
please help

You can change the name of the programs in the Cube!
Just tap the current name in the grey box and you can change it!

change 'the other' soft keys?

Hi, I know how to change the softkeys on the "Home" page but I'm really not too happy with the Pro2's way of listing "all people" as the default address book, I really preferred the old windows mobile look where you could organise contacts through "company" and all that, I know you can navigate to "programs > contacts" to get this old look but it's not that convenient...
After having a search on the forum I couldn't find any definite so I thought I'd make this post. What I’m trying to do is when I click the "all people" button, (highlighted in red on the link) I want it to be able to open the standard windows mobile contact list that I mentioned above rather than the new HTC TouchFLO3D one. I know you can go into the registry and alter the main Home TouchFLO3D page's softkeys but I can't seem to find out how to change the softkeys on the other TouchFLO3D tabs (like mail, contacts and photos)... Can anyone help, thanks!

Making a stock ROM livable

I've been living with the AT&T Tilt 2 stock rom for awhile now and have gotten it tweaked to the point where it works well and does what i want it to do. I'm just setting this thread up to share what i've got installed and what mods/tweaks are working for me. I'll be adding to them as i go along because i'm constantly fiddling with and tweaking my phone. I've gotten most of the applications i use from right here on xda-devs, and a quick search should pull em up. So without further ado here they are:
Tilt 2 Tweaks
Changing TF3D Search Provider:
HKCU/Software/HTC/Manila
dword=InternetSearchUrl
Change to=http://www.google.com/m/search/?q=%s
Or=http://
Camera Tweaks:
going in to each one and making sure that the key "Enable" is set to "1"
Burst
Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\P6
Sports
Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\P8
Video Share
Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\P9
Change what it says on slider in lockscreen:
Under lockscreen in windows folder
In Ls_LockScene_480x800.cpr (adapt to your resolution) :
<Text ID="SlideToUnlock" Top="90" Width="480" Height="34" FontFamily="Tahoma" FontSize="9" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Middle" InnerTextType="Resource" Text="shellresapps.dll,18149">
Replace "Resource" by "Literal" and Text="shellresapps.dll,18150" by Text="Slide me if you dare !" (or whatever you want to be displayed here) !
Same for the "TapOrSlide" section
Changing color of clocks in TF3D:
If you use the manila editor you can open and export the manila images as .png graphic files.
Export using save as, then open the .png in an image editor (eg photoshop) and make your changes. (or edit the red .png number files I posted above)
Adjusting hue/saturation is a quick way for novices to swap colours.
Save as .png, then replace the image in the manila editor.
Copy the _manila files that you changed to /windows
Title Bar Clock:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=1
"TBOpt"=1
you may need to create a new DWORD value for "TBOpt"
Opera in Task Manager:
Go to: HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\ExclusiveList\System
There delete Opera9.exe (now it will show in the task manager)
To close opera by pressing the X-button instead of minimizing it follow these steps:
Go to: HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\TerminateProcess
There, create a DWORD with the name Opera9.exe value "1"
To enable/disable web page optimization for mobile browsers in google and bing go to mobile site while in browser and click settings, then select/deselect option.
Disabling Push Internet:
"HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\InternetPush\EnablePushI nternet" value="0"

HD2 Tweaks that work for Rhodium:
Improve Suggested T9 Dictionary With Custom Words
The Leo has a very useful hidden application in the Windows directory. You need to unhide hidden system and Rom files in order to find it. Find the file "eT9MyWords.exe" in the Windows directory and add a shortcut to this file in your Windows/Start Menu folder. (this might be worth it, not sure running some tests on it. Make sure u don't do what i do and copy xt9 on accident, bad things happen )
Enable LED Notification Setting in Sound and Notifications
If you want your LED to flash when you have a new message, missed call or voicemail.. well you can't as it is greyed out. However the following registry entries can be modified to enable them or use the cab at end of post. Reset after changes. Notifcation for Email sadly does not work

Real Exit for HTc Album
By defualt, when you click on the ok/X button in HTC Album, the app minimizes and does not exit. Make the following change to really exit the app and thus save some program memory: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAlbumv"ok_minim ize" = dword:0
How to Enable More Than 1 Hotmail Account in Email Tab
By default you can only check one hotmail account at a time. Here is how to enable more hotmail accounts.
1. Create a new email account.
2. In the email field write your email but replace the "@hotmail.com" with "@hotmail.con", this way the OS is not going to load Windows live messenger to sync your email.
3. Disable the option "Try to get e-mail settings..."
4. Select the email provider, in this case, Internet e-mail.
5. Complete the name and account display name
6. Incoming server: "pop3.live.com:995". Account type: POP3
7. Complete the form with your username and password. Note: the username is your full email address: "[email protected]" and not "yourusername".
8. Outgoing mail server: "smtp.live.com:25". Check the "outgoing server requires au...". Click on Advanced settings and check the "Require SSL..." for incoming ant outgoing e-mail.
9. Complete the rest of the setup.
10. Now, go to your email account and go to Tools > Options, once there, click on the email account you just created and click on "Edit account setup." NOTE: It might make you wait until it syncs 1 time.
11. Replace the "@hotmail.con" with the right one "@hotmail.com" and hit next 'till the end of the setup, and done.
Speed Up Music Album Loading on Reboot
After a reboot and you scroll to Music Tab, you have to wait quite a while for all the music files to be loaded. Now you can speed this up by making it load as soon as the phone starts and before reaching the tab. Go to your Windows folder and find the file "AudioManager_Eng.exe" Create a shortcut (.lnk file) of this file and put it in your Windows\StartUp folder. (Not sure if this is working or not, anybody have any experience with it?)

Renaming Android Start Screen Folders:
I wanted on my desktop. menu >> add >> folders. To rename them just open them and do a long press on the folder name. After that just drag and drop, I have found it is quicker to just open a folder instead of trying to navigate to different pages.

No option menu "Complete action using" to use other dialer!

Hello,
I installed MobileVoip and Viber in my HTC One X.
When I call a number from:
- default dialer,
- the contact list
- or Dialer widget
I don't get the option menu "Complete action using" to select Dialer, MobileVoip or Viber. Look at the attached screen-shot (from my previous Galaxy Note). To use MobileVoip or Viber, I have to dial the number in those apps.
I already checked the details of the 3 apps (with a phone icon) in SETTING > APPS > ALL APPS tab. And none has default action, the button "RESET DEFAULT ACTIONS" is deactivated (non click-able).
This menu "Complete action using" appears for other type of action, like opening a .LOG file or a .PDF file.
The missing menu "Complete action using" when dialing:
- Is that a One X bug?
- Do you experiment the same problem?
- If yes, did you find a solution (which one)?
Thanks and regards.
CONFIG: HTC One X. Firmware 1.29.401.11, Android 4.0.3, Not Rooted.

More screen-shots of my HTC1X to illustrate my problem.
- The menu "Complete action using" appear when I open a .PDF file.
- 3 apps (with a phone icon) found in the list SETTING > APPS > ALL APPS tab.
- the detail page of one of those 3 apps showing the "Default action" part.
Thanks and regards.

I found how to get this dialing option menu from the call history (only).
Long press a call item and you get a menu, In this menu select "Edit number before calling" then you get the dialing option menu.
Look at the attached 2 screen-shot.

Are you on the AT&T One X or the International?
Thought this was the fix for the AT&T one to let it pass US customs.
