Good day, new here and hoping someone can assist with a question I am unable to find an answer for. I have a touch pro on the Sprint network, I have not cracked it or done much to this phone as I am still very new to this device (retired my Moto Q). The only customization I have done thus far is instal the transparent flip clock.
What I am hoping to do is edit the tone my keypad makes when using the TP as a phone. Right now the only options available when having the phones keypad up under menu>options> keypad is Off, Long tones, and Short tones. What i would like to do is make it more costum, perhaps by using the 'clicking' sound the new BB Storm makes when pressing, really anything but that annoying standard 'beep' or nothing at all.
Sorry if I missed something in the search or wiki, I did look but nothing doing.
Thanks in advance!

search in the reg under HKCU\controlpanel\sounds i think if no luck just search the reg for sounds folder. hope this helps
thanks for your response, i did find the keys, however they can only be changed to another numeric character. The keys are labeled Dtmf0, Dtmf1, Dtmf2, etc for each key. I verified this by changing some of them. So you can set the keys to make the seperate tones, such as making them all sound like your dialing '1', or make '9' have the '2' tone, etc, but I cant find a way to make it use a sound file, any advice? Hope I was clear enough on this.
Thanks again

Is there a cab for enabling vibrating key dialer for the Tilt? I've searched for it but I can't seem to find one. I guess vibrate and dialer are too common terms or I'm just useless at searching. Thanks in advance for any help.
This is the only one I've ever seen. It's a little util written by someone, I don't even remember where. (Otherwise I'd credit the person).
It mostly works. The only issue is the vibrate is delayed slightly, so it only vibrates if you press *deliberately* on the number. If you do a quick tap, it doesn't vibrate...
Thanks. Will give it a try.
Looks like some credit needs to go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=304767
But sounds like it was a rework of previous work so it might not be his.
Thanks for the cab file so I don't have to edit the registry every time I hard reset my machine
It's just a registry setting? Can you tell me the key and value?
If some of the app programmers in here are looking for an idea to an app/tweak for the S730 (or other phones), i have a suggestion :
It would be such a cool feature if, when you are talking on the phone normally and you decide to slide out the qwerty keyboard the phone automaticly puts the call on loudspeaker, and when you slide the qwerty keyboard back in it automaticlly goes back to 'normal' phone mode.
Fx. when you are driving and need to put in on loudspeaker its easier to slide out the keuboard. Or if you want to add an appointment or contact while talking to someone its way easier to just slide out the keyboard and start typing.
I really hope someone can code such an app. I would be a very happy little piggy
Is it even possible to mske such an app?
I dont wanna go around hoping for it if it's not possible
Same for Tilt. It can really be a bugger to answer. Sliding back to vertical seems to put caller on hold. Very dangerous to answer in car w/o bluetooth.
there's clearly something being called when you open the phone. it's a matter of figuring out what, putting a watch on it; then, when activated, making the necessary reg changes/api calls to do whatever you want. Obviously. Too bad I don't have a working version of Visual Studio.

Sure thing. Actually I had installed it on Vista. Something happened (I think with an SP upgrade), and it no longer starts; and I can not uninstall it.
Lovely, Vista. Lovely.
It's pretty easy to be notified when keyboard is out and incoming call is detected.. I guess, the harder part is to programmatically switch on loud speaker (without simulating menu presses). But, maybe it's easy, i've not touch the phone or RIL API yet..
Well i really hope that you Saman-cz or bigflavor or someone else could program it. It would be really cool. I used to have it on my Nokia Communicator and it was a great feature that i used a lot.
If someone makes it for the S730 would it work on other slide out smartphone as well?
just found out:
Hit Green Call button "long" (hold it for about two seconds) while in a call and it will toggle speakerphone.
great hint. thanks
Cool. Not as good as the keyboard app , but very very usefull. Thanks.
Is it possible to assign a seperate ringtone for certain contacts? I have trawled through the user manual trying to find anything at on this but it shows nothing. I dont know whether this would require additional software to be installed or not so am looking for any pointers on this. I have tried to search on this subject but each time the results that come back are totally varied and dont mention this issue. Any help much appreciated

if you dont want extra software:
in the contact details, there is a field under mobile tel that says ringtone.
sadly you cant mute or set to vibrate only
but i think there is a prog (iirc phonealarm? someone verify on this please) that will do exactly that.
Yes. Phone alarm will do that. Doesn't do black list yet, but can also do separate tones for contacts SMS's..
Other alternatives....... Photo Contacts Pro (PocketX). Smartfilter Pro (Novosec),
But, as mentioned above, you can assign ringtones to specific contacts.
Hi Toufas, tha's exactly what I was looking for. Many thanks, if thats in the user guide, I must need better specs
i assigned specific ringtones to some of my contacts but its this morning did i realize that the default ringtone still applies whenever those people call.
i have a 6.1 rom. do you guys think this is the problem??
I can recommend Ringo. You can set ringtones to your categories if syncing with outlook, set up specific message tones and customise with your own mp3, wavs etc...
So does "Ringo" or any similar software allow us to create a category of contacts (personal, business) and assign each category a ringtone?
Also, I have recently switched to PocketPCs. I have a Tilt phone running 6.1 cooked ROM. I should say, Nokia phones give a much better profile and call management options than these phones, hands down! Nokia gave me a silent button I could use to mute the ringtone but let the call continue. This is very helpful in case you forgot to switch it to silent and the phone suddenly ring. You don't always have to ignore the call. Can HTC Tilt do something like this?
Also, one more thing I miss is the vibrate + distinct beep sound Nokia phones have. That beep is heard even when you are considerably away from the phone, very nice sound. So I want to create a vibrate profile on HTC Tilt with a sharp beep sound. Can this be done?
Sorry for so many questions in this thread, but simply did not want to create a new one.

My TyTN II used to have a Silence button when I was running Garmin's DK.3 rom... I do not know about his new roms, but since I've started running AthineOS, I have lost the silence button... dont know yet if I personally miss it, but it means that it does exist...
I got a warranty replacement Tilt last week. On my new device, I get no sounds or vibrations when entering numbers on the telephone dialer. My last Tilt used to make a sound as I entered numbers. I have Kaiser Tweak installed, but get nothing whether I set dialer button behavior to tones or vibrate. Any suggestions? I went to Sounds & Notifications and enabled sounds for Screen Taps and Hard Buttons, with still no change for the phone dialer.
did you try searching??
try these keywords:
- keypad vibrate
- keypad sound
and see if there is solution for your problem.
i guess there is, so i would suggest to use search in the future.

thanks, I had found the vibrate thread, but that wasn't what I was looking for. My search did not turn up the dialpad sound fix cab.
there is more than this one thread regarding vibrating dialpad. if this is not what you was looking for, than you could explain what you need in more details. link to sound fix was in keypad vibrate thread. please try searching. but for real this time. you can't expect to find solution with two clicks, you will need some time for serious customization of your phone.
Anyone been able to work a fix for this? WM 6 would underline numbers in received e-mail, calendar etc etc one could dial the numbers directly from within the mail?
The paste function has also been removed from the dialpad
ROM 1.37.421.3
This thread has an interesting solution.

this is bugging me bigtime!
im going try change the phone skin to the old wm6 version with advanced config, seeing as the function was there before on older phones then it should work here too.
can someone provide a solution??
The same problem for me.
I realized that when you have the status opened (it opens while you are talking) in the menu you have the paste option... but it is useless.
I also want to paste some numbers in the phone to call them... it is very annoying not to have this option (sometimes I need to copy also some numbers from internet pages... but now it is impossible!!!).
Can someone help?!?
Thnx.

Hi Surur,
Good one thx for the link, i think this was a serious oversight from MS, this is the one reason i would chuck the phone.
So far i have enjoyed the phone, i think it works well, but as i said its virtually useless if you cant paste numbers on the dialpad.
This limitation is really annoying me now; and still, a month down the line it's the only unforgivable problem I have with this otherwise fantastic little phone.
I was hoping it was a simple oversight, and would have been fixed by now. Has any of the later ROMs addressed the issue? If not, has anyone came up with a solution, or at least a realistic work around that doesn't involve pen and paper?
for over 3 years i am using a dialer "contact breeze".
the dialer himself is also of value but i am reinstalling it each time only for this tweak. long press anywhere in a meeting or task and it will offer any of the telephone numbers in it. no need of any other spaces, tlf:, etc. just type the number and it will be offered for dialing after a long press. the prog cost a few $. it worth it!
Thanks, sounds like a usable work around, I'll check it out.
Still hoping for a real solution though... Anyone?
