[REQ or Question] Speed/Fast Dialer? - G1 Themes and Wallpapers

I was wondering, has anyone ever seen or heard of an app that does a 'quick dial' sound when calling a speed dial person or contact?
If you don't know what i am talking about, I am referring to the little sound that plays on a blackberry whenever you dial out....
I can't post an example due to the "new user verification" rule for these forums, But you can easily find it on Zedge by searching "Quickdial" or even googling it...i think a youtube video or two of some blackberrys might have it.
Anyways, has anyone heard or made or even seen of something like this for our beloved Android?
I didn't know if this would fall under theme or app or something, so i posted to the theme's section, since this would undoubtedly deal with modifying something hardcore...

Custom open/close slide sound

Hi Folks,
Is there a way to change the slide sound to my own one?
I have some really nice slide-sounds, but how can i use them? I searched my phone for wma, wav, mp3, but nothing simular...
hope you got the answers...
An old squeaky hinge would be my choice
Would love to know this too although I've fallen in love with the Mechanical sound
Let us here know if you find out that info and don't forget to share your sounds
I've got some sounds from the Editor of Unreal Tournament GOTY. When i have time for it, i will post them here, and try to figger out the way to apply them.
theres a few million posts in the kaiser forums and i posted the best pack icould find previously in the rhodium genral. To set the sounds go to settings>personal>keyboard sliding sounds
to make custom ones you need an open and shut sound and it's a registry key addition .. 5 seconds using the search will get you it.
As a reply to magius,
do you mean this one?

I searched the forum before i started this thread, but i think i used wrong keywords...
thanks, i will try it at home!
Yeah sorry am at work so forum browsing is a bit slow.
It should be noted there are a LOT of cab files floating around with sounds for keyboard sliding in most cases if these don't work all you need to do is change the numbering in the registry.
@ magius00
Sweet!
In the StarCraft editor are also a lot of cool open/closing door sounds.
I like the electronic sounds.
i will look for it this day, and i upload the sounds when i have time.

Change Me on Message thread

Hello everyone I would like to thank everyone for your hard work...
Second I would like to apologize if I'm posting in the wrong section..
Now I would like to ask and sorry if this has been discussed before..
I would like to change the Me option that you get in the message tread... Like when you speak with someone it says Me and your message, I would like to have a custom name....
Here is a picture that show what I mean.... how you get Me: and the name of the other person you are texting!!
I would appreciate any answer...
Thanks....
it sounds like a silly request, and im not sure if it has been answered already elsewhere, but i too would like to know if this is possible, most of my touch pro 2 is customized as far as carrier name and so on, but that "me" is still there lol would like to customize this as well.
Interesting question. I guess you stumped everyone. It'd be interesting to know though.
This is likely a resource in one of the .mui's, a simple ResourceID = "Me"
So you could use reshacker or similar to edit it, assuming it is in a .mui (which it should be)
I been looking for this for a long time now and havent been able to find anything helpful... and since I see a lot of themes, skins and mod for windows mobile cellphones I thought of this and so I ask hoping someone would know...
but it seen that no one knows...

Push notification!

I haven't seen it done on TP or Tilt2, but its on the iPhone. I find it extremely useful for things like the facebook app. I would really like to see something like this done on TP and Tilt2! Does anyone know if someone here is already working on it? I hope someone does make this work, it would be awesome!

what exactly are you trying to have pushed to your phone?
well you can have it text you or send you an email but as for the little bubble over the icon no. thats actually a constant connection with apple servers and thats not free. its part of the apple plan that includes services like apples voicemail.

Text messaging problem choosing the wrong person... anyone else?

When I go into my main texting screen, and choose a name from all my saved texts at the time, it will sometimes randomly open up a different person than the one I clicked on. I have sometimes sent the wrong text to the wrong person because of this. It does it maybe 1 in 20 times. Does anyone else have this issue. Phone specs in my sig, and also did it without custom kernel and on fresh 3.4.0.1
Sounds like you are experiencing the infamous "Android SMS Bug".

Seriously, not to sound like a troll but why does NO ONE SEARCH before posting anymore?
I'm about to unsubscribe from the RSS feeds because I get about 17 new "How do I Root?" threads every day in addition to a few "DAE have this problem that everyone has?" threads.

It's never a smart thing to subscribe to RSS feeds especially when it comes to support forums. I used to do it but got so many emails daily. Give the guy some slack though. He probably didn't know it was a bug and therefore didn't search because of it.
Yeah sorry guys. I thought it might be a rare case. Off to yahoo for me..
And it's not that it sends it to the wrong person... it just loads up the wrong conversation when touching a name and I have to double check. When hitting send, it still sends to that person thats currently on the conversation screen. Only does it with people who I've already listed in the main text screen showing all the people

Are you using an AOSP rom by the way? I noticed that it happened to me a lot when I was using CM's ROM.

I disagree:
RSS feeds are always preferred over revisiting the page. You reduce load on the server by not streaming all the content back and forth until there is a discussion you want to dive into. I'm not sure what you use for RSS if it's sending you emails but switch over to Google Reader.
I understand he didn't know it was a bug... my point was why not search for it first. The very first thing I do when I encounter something like this is "google it". That either takes me to pages where others are discussing the same issue... or proves that no one else knew about it.
A forum isn't meant to be a never ending jetstream of new threads. Look at the developer forums, they have a single thread per ROM/App/etc. and update it with discoveries and new software versions. The thread becomes the SOLE SOURCE for information on that topic... making it easy to find what you are looking for.

Nope, Fresh 3.5.0.1. Did it with fresh 3.4 also and stock kernel. But I just looked it up on yahoo and seen lots of pages talking about it.
Here is the official Android Defect. Google has already fixed the issue and will publish it in a future release (see comment 1460):

Exactly what mine does once in a while. Unlike the "google sms bug" where the sms sends to the wrong person, mine sends to the right person, but just selects the wrong person's thread once in a while. I have almost sent some "naughty" texts to my mom and boss before I looked who I was sending them too lol.

Never a good idea to have your bosses number saved in your address book if you're going to possibly.....
I'd memorize it. Anyway it happens to me so often that I always clear my inbox after each message that I send someone.
SMS texting
I guess the big question is "Is there a real fix for this"? If not, then we know we can't use that feature with this phones reliably. I see this happening a lot but I don't hear of anyone working on it? Since this is open source code, I think this could be fixed. For now my question is a possible work around that we know work 100% all the time?
What are you guys doing to ensure the message to your girlfriend/wife doesn't go to your kids?

[Q] Change google now "google" to something else

This may seem like something of a longshot, but I figured it was worth asking. I don't know about anyone else but I would personally love to be able to change the voice prompt word on google now to something other than well....google. I would like to name it like, Kelly, or Sheila, or just about anything other than saying google every time. If anyone thinks this can be done I would love to hear some ideas as I will be working on figuring it out as well!!
This is the one instance where I think "computer" would be perfect.

or even droid, or nexus, or android, or anything lol....just not google. I just think to myself, if iPhone users were like ....Apple, whats the weather like? Just seems very bland.
I've also been waiting for someone to hack this (or s-voice or any of the others) to respond to "computer". I figure it's only a matter of time.
Bonus points if confirmation prompts can be responded to with "make it so".
seeing as this is just the first version of their Siri-type functionality, I am sure there will be advancements, features and funny responses added in due time. They always seem to make things easier to use as time goes on.
speaking of funny response.... after saying google, say : do a barrel roll
HAh, it does a barrel roll! I love easter eggs.
Jarvis
Every time I watch Iron Man or Avengers, I want my phone/tab to respond to Jarvis.
Hopefully when this hack is implemented, someone will post it here.
