Dose anyone know if??????? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi People,
I know this is going to sound really stupid but it's got to be asked.
I know you can change the ring-tones to what ever you want but is there any was to change your message notification tone?
Like i said it's a stupid question.
Thanks for you help in advance.

Go to "sound" in settings and you'll see an option - "Notification sound"
If the audio file you want to select isn't showed there, create a "Notification" folder in the root of your SD (i.e. /sdcard/Notifications/)

Messed with My Fonts :(

Hi Everyone:
I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I've already tried registry hacks and I think that's how I got into this mess in the first place. Last thing I tried was using Tweaks2k2.net and I made it even worse. Basically some of my fonts are completely messed up. I've attached a picture so you can see what I'm talking about.
If you notice at the top, the letters sorting the contacts are so big they're distorted. If anyone knows how to fix it I would greatly appreciated.
Thanks for all your help.
try this...
1. launch Tweaks2k2...
2. goto System Tweaks->System Tweaks
3. Select "Tahoma" in the dropdown list.
4. Check then Uncheck the adjacent checkbox.
5. exit and choose soft-reset.
6. after reset... goto Start->Settings->System Tab->Screen
7. goto Text Size then adjust smaller or bigger. just change what was defaulted just for this fix, you could always change it back when you dont want it.
8. check your contacts again.
have a nice day!
Thanks for the reply.
Hey There:
Thanks for helping out. I actually resolved it already, I thought I posted the response to my own post but I guess it didn't come through.
The way I solved it was by going to the same registry settings that I messed with and I set them up as HEX FFFFFFF4, this brought back all the text to the original size, problem solved.
See the problem was that I didn't want to really change the txt that I did change, I could have gotten away with going to the properties and changing the font size but I didn't know that.
Thank you again for your kind help it is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
no prob... im glad you solved it.

Custom Sounds on HTC Touch Pro2???

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??
- Just copy any wma, mp3 or wav format file(s) into /windows/ directory.
- Select Settings/Sound/Advanced/Notifications
- Pick the Event you want and select the Ring tone from the drop-down menu
Enjoy~
Thats for the regular sounds....I am looking for a way to customize the STARTUP sound like when you turn the phone on and off and the error sounds. I appreciate the help but I am aware of how to change the regular sounds....just not sure if there is a way to change the start and error.

Jeez, i dont understand why they make it so complicated! Even WM 5.0 Smartphone edition was more fluent. I didnt have to move sound files all over the dam place just for specific events. Why in the hell cant it just let you Point to a file instead of stupidly being locked into one directly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is their a way to somehow change What directory its pointing to at least?
Guess i could just delete all the default sounds and put my own in their (if it will let me delete them)
Any Ideas? is their a way to have the sounds point to a custom location?
Again.. Can you change the pointed directory for event sounds out of the windows directory?
I've been lookin for the answer to this since my sprint mogul
I could be wrong but it sounds like you may need to look at flashing a custom splash screen. You can attach custom sounds to the splash screen to be whatever you want. I'm not to sure about the error sounds. I would assume you can associate an event to a sound file and call it a day.

Just tested this. It can change the general ring tone, but not for each person, and im not sure if i just dont know how to use it, but its realyl diffacult to goto other directory's to find new sounds.

Custom SMS and Email tones

Hi, sorry if it has been asked already, I could not find it anywhere.
I want to change my sms and email notification tones but cannot get wm to see them, i have tried mp3, wav and midi but no joy.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave
first you've to copy your sound-files into the windows-folder. afterwards you go on the "settings tab" (slider), then on "sound" and then on the right soft-key..("advanced" I think...)..then on "Notifications" and voila =) you can choose out of a drop-down menu the different sounds
info: I've got the german tp2, so I don't know whether the tab-names are right

Other places you can use:
My Device\My Documents\filename.mp3
My Device\Application Data\Sounds\filename.mp3
Storage Card\filename.mp3
Hey thanks, I tried all those locations and this is the only one that woked
My Device\Application Data\Sounds\filename.mp3
Thanks again.

[Q] Increase Font Size - Accessibility Settings??

I am trying to find a way to increase the font size, in a number of places but say for example in the phone list. I would find it far easier to read the phone numbers if they were a little larger.
In the system settings there is a tab for Accessibility. However when I click it, the next box available is greyed out and inacessible.
Has anybody any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help!!
I cant believe that NOBODY knows how to do this????!!!!!!!!!!!
I can remember , when I last blatted my phone.. that area pops up with a box saying do you want to install accessibility, select no ... never seen it since .. apart from a full reset...
Must be a file to get it back some where .

Can you add touch sounds?

I am curious if there is a way to add touch sounds to the system ui media file (system/media/audio/ui). I know how to add and change/replace alarms, ringtones, and notifications. And I know how to change/replace the touch ui sounds. What I want to figure out, is how to add ui sounds. I want to have a sound for whenever apps open. There will be the default touch sound, plus an additional one (like a warble or trill or whatever you want) as the app is opening. In all of my searching, i've yet to find anything on this. Thanks for any help!
EDIT:
sorry if this is in the wrong area. It's a question, but it's theme related so I figured this was the place to post. If not, i'm sure the mods will move it
i think you are answering your own question... or i dont get it
but u are on the right track
make a sound with .ogg extension and copy it to ui thats it
