Hi all, this is my first post in this forum, so first of all I wanted to greet everybody
I have a simple question, is it possible to change the sound notification of my Qtek9090 with WM2k3?
I set a WMA music as ringtone but I would to change the notification of receipt for the sms and MMS, how to do it? :roll: :roll:
Tnx in Advance
txt and mms is the same way as call notification , but if ur wanting to customise your own tones for them then all u do is place any .wav file into the windows directory, then u can use them.
welcome to the boards by the way!
I have a question. I'm not sure if it's WM6.1 related, or if it's built into the ShadoW..
But when i view text messages now, they show up as a "conversation" .. which i din't mind, but i can't seem to move the messages into another folder. Infact, i can't even create a new folder in the tree.
The "Move" option is still there, but i can't do anything with it. The reason i "move" the messages is to clean up work and personal related messages. now they're all stuck in my inbox.
Is it a feature of WM6.1? Or is it a feature of the ShadoW install?
i have some problem too
anybody have a solution ?
i want to work with old sms system
i was never able to create a folder for the sms, i dont think it s an issue about wm 6.1
Aliencurv,
I'm guessing that 6.1 uses threaded SMS, which is a new feature. The previous version of WinMobile (6.0) used the standard SMS format that you are used to.
I don't know whether you can deinstall this feature in 6.1 or if its cooked into the ROM. What I can tell you is that it is possible to create subfolders in 6.0 and move stuff around. I do this all the time.
If you can't deinstall threaded SMS from 6.1 and if sub directories are important, you may have to move back to 6.0.
I have to say I have only briefly beta tested 6.1 so I can't say for sure what you can do with folders. However 6.0 is as I have said above.
Hope this helps.

I also noticed that I can't forward any messages now under 6.1 like I was able to before

u can bro.. just select the conversation intended ..select the intended messages by scrolling up & down using your DPad/Jog Scroll (it will be highlighted as u move along), when done selecting, click menu, select forward.. u good to go..

see screenshot below
Thanks for your reply but it seems that you have to be in a conversation in order to be able to forward and not with a message where i didn't reply. I'm not by my computer so I'll post a screen shot later.
You disable threaded SMS by using the following key:
HKCU\Microsoft\Inbox\Setings\OEM\SMSInboxThreadingDisable=DWORD:1

You could always create a new folder via "manage folders" prior to WM6.1, although now it greyed out, rather than non-existent.
For those who don't like the threaded SMS in WM 6.1, you can change its style to WM 6.0 by this key:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]
"SMSAvailable"=dword:[COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR]
Change 1 -> 0 and you'll have the old SMS

Nice! Once in a while i prefer to send/receive sms's the normal way. hehe
And when threading is disabled, i could do pretty much anything that i could do before like "Manage Folders" (create/delete folders) and move messages to/from a specific folder.
Thanks!

Just disable the threading feature using the registry tweak Cludyfa mentioned a few posts above. Disabling the threading allows you to "Manage Folders" and move messages around.
I have edited the registry and disable the "threading", but with this effect, the notification (sound or vibration) for new SMS is also disable (e.g. no sound and vibration when there is new SMS and easily miss SMS/MMS), regardless how I set it in the "Sounds & Notifications".
Just wonder anyone has similar experience?

yep, i tried the tweak on two different WM6.1 roms, there's no incoming sms notification when i disable threading. I just hope somebody discovers a tweak to remedy this.
I like the new threaded SMS a lot but unfortunately my messages (restored) from before do not show up - only SMS's after I installed a 6.1 rom - the only way to read previous SMS is by going back to the old (with the regedit mentioned in this thread) or using a 3rd party program like PocketCM - anybody know how to make older messages appear in the new threaded SMS?

Me, too. Get the same problem.
Cloudyfa,
Thanks for the reg tweak, its work. I try to get use to WM6.1 sms threading but still not use to it after 2 weeks... thanks anyw.
Is there a way to customize startup sounds or error sounds? I would like to change the sound of those, but can't seem to figure out how. Anyone help with that?? It has WinOS 6.1.
Like many of the options on the Touch Pro2, a user interface for the notification sounds appears to be sadly lacking. The default sound for my email alert, for example, it a barely audible beep. I have just had a route through the registry, and all the notifications look as if they are located here:
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
From here, there are a number of registry keys, most of which are GUIDs, but their associated function is shown by the (default) value inside each key. There's a Wave string value in each, which you should be able to change as required. I've not tried this yet, but will have a go later.
I want to be able to change the sounds for the incoming call, new text message, ect, with a clicks or two...
I have spb phone suite and it allows me to set up profiles to adjust volume levels, but i want an easy way to change the actual sounds.
I want the phone set to a certain group of sounds during the day, and then at night change to a different set of sounds.
Any suggestions on how to get this done without a ton of work or where an app is at that does this?
Again, i dont need to adjust sound levels, but the sounds themselves...
Bringing this back to the top.

I have used Phonealarm for years. It is almost too customizable, but it will change volumes, tones, vibrate patterns, light the LED, and more. Its a Today plug-in but there also a couple of ways to integrate with TF3D.
There's a trial on www.pocketmax.net and I think it will do what you want.
+1 on PhoneAlarm, although I have not tried it on the Tilt 2 yet.
Sweet, thank you.
Im installing this as I type!
Phonealarm doesnt allow you to specify anything more then then ringtone.
You cant specify the sms or mms tones in the profiles...

Au contraire mon frere, with PA 2.2 you can setup custom email/SMS alarms base on subject/sender. I have not tried it yet, but it should work.
Wait, you just one per profile? That is definitely in there.
does PA allow me also to have a specific ringtone played according to the content of received sms'? I mean, having a standard ringtone (for every sms), and a secondary one only for sms that contain the word "emergency"?
thank you

Subject or Sender. Not body. (Do SMS messages have a subject?) I don't get SMS messages (only MMS), so I have not tested it. It's got a 15 day trial, so take it for a spin.
Does this allow you to point to sound files for ring tones or do you still have to dump them all in the messy windows directory? Does this include open close? (keyboard) sounds?
I want the ability to quickly change the phone/sms/mms sounds all at once.
PA does not do this that i could figure out.
If im wrong please help me figure it out, i would be greatful.
Also, if its not any easier then navigating to the default "sounds and notifications" settings then it does no good for me.
Optimally i would like an icon in my apps to click on, and then 1 more click to change sounds.
If I understand what you're asking for, this functionality was included in 6.1 (at least on my Blackjack II and Dash/Excalibur).
I was able to navigate to start > settings > profiles, then have 4 or 5 customizable profiles to choose from. I'd typically use a "silent" profile for situations like sitting in a movie theater, "normal" for everyday use, and "outdoor" or "loud" with everything at full volume.
These profiles were selected either from the profiles menu or by quickly pressing the power button (which puts my Tilt2 to sleep) and selecting the profile I wanted to use.
This is an extremely useful feature. I've looked all over and it appears that it isn't included in Windows Mobile 6.5 which is very surprising.
It looks like there are some 3rd party apps that might do this. This one looks to be the most promising and has a 14 day trial: http://www.penreader.com/windows-mobile-software/Handy_Assistant.html
Edit: This one looks like it might work too - though a little dated: http://www.jgui.net/phoneprofiles/index.html
Ok Here Is A Better Descriotion Of My Issue
Im Using 3vo Series Rom windows 6.5 And Cannot find where i need to set tone for my text its driving me nuts please give me a better discription as to where i find this option HTC Excalibur
Start>settings>sounds scroll down and you will see the text option.
