The title says everything!! i was thinking the scratch sound the old moto V80 made, or maybe something else. If anyone knows how to change it please let me know!!
Thanks
I just turn the sound off, but I do remember reading somewhere about adding new sounds. I'll look around.
re
currently i have it off too but i would like to customize it!! anyone else have any thoughts??
My Herald came with a HTC app. preinstalled that enabled me to turn it off or specify another sound. It's in the registry somewhere if the app isn't installed btw.
Where can I put new sounds for the keyboard? I can only choose betwen 3 sounds. (I have the application installed)

think u have to put em in the windows folder, and they have to be *.wav
havnt tested myself but should work
Look for a key in the registry called "SlidingSound". It has 3 keys, "0", "1", and "2", each corresponding to the 3 sound options. Copy the .wav files you want into the windows directory. Choose any one of the 3 keys and change the "in" and "out" string values to the sounds you want. I tried this and it worked. I think I'll make my slide out sound like a cash register until it becomes more annoying than humorous.

where are you finding that in the registry? I found the slidingsound in the registry...but nothing where it shows the other tones or me having the ability to add mine...I'm using total commander
never mind...found the registry...but new problem is total commander won't let me copy and past the wav files that I want to use into the windows directory. it won't allow me to replace the other slider sounds also...what am I doing wrong?

Does anyone know the registry setting that initiates this? I am trying to get it to work for Hermes and have the Sliding Sound application installed.. and it recognizes my sounds, but it doesn't initialize when i open up the keyboard or close it.. any help would be appreciated
i LOVE the transformer sound for sliding the keyboard out! and your device IS ACTUALLY transforming!!!

With a registry editor ( http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml ) in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch we see the folders APLauncher + MediaHubMini. The first one it contains the regulations for the side of cube with 6 applications and the second one, the regulations for the side of cube with 3 applications.
Opening the file APLauncher we see at line, 6 files with name App0 - 5. Each one represents a button of cube, in the side with 6 applications. We are interested for the fields Name where we fix the name of application that will appear on screen and Path where we fix the path of application that we want to place.
In this example I have put the application Live Messenger changing string with \Windows\WLMMessenger.exe with preferred application. Attention, we needed exe no ink, that exist in windows folder or Program Files folder.
With the same way open the folder MediaHubMini. We see at line, 3 files with name App1_1 - 3. . Each one represents a button of cube, in the side with 3 applications. At the same way we make also here the changes that we wish. The field APNameFontSize it represents the font size.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlRVh8oA1rw
Here we see the final result. Next stage the change of our own pictures in each program, but most important is to have in the cube the applications that we want to have easy access with one hand. Most careful and those who have installed the HTC Action Screen will discover in the folder Biotouch and the corresponding regulations for this.
==========================
==========================
Another side with six applications in cube
1. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch add a folder with name APLauncher4 with the same content of APLauncher.
2. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Βiotouch add a String Value with name App4 and String APLauncher \Windows\APLauncher4.exe
3. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Βiotouch add a Βinary Value with name Cube4 with the same content of Cube3.
4. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Βiotouch change the DWORD VALUE Total Cubes from 3 to 4.
5. In windows folder make a new file with name APLauncher4.exe copy from APLauncher.exe
==========================
==========================
All that require big experience and knowledge and become more easily with copy, paste & rename.
Thanks to butzchan, atao, hawk eye tim.
Can I ever thank you enough?
Thank you so much Pano! This is a really great tweak!!!
Easier and more user friendly is carlos' touchsettings. can be found on www.fatattitude.com. Thread is somwhere in development here. No need to go to reg.
In my and some other devices, this application does not open.
weird :-( I have polaris (o2 orbit2) and works w/o probs. But i had to install cube from CAB (bloody f..ing o2 ROM) Hopefully soon will be some custom ROM
Isn't there a easier way
Thx.

Lets add another cube!!
I have successfully added another cube by making 3 regedits:
I added:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch--added REG_SZ called App4 (value data same as App3)
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch--added REG_BINARY called Cube4 (value data same as Cube3)
Changed HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch/TotalCubes from 3 to 4
I now have 4 cubes, but obviously the added cube is a clone of the APLauncher (6 button) cube that already existed. My question is (being a newbie at this, and feeling like GT330 and panosha do) how do I change the new 6 APLauncher cube to display different programs?
Is it as simple as adding an APLauncher2 Key, values, etc in the registry??
I can't find a way to make it work.

I've added the 2 registry keys and modified the TotalCubes key :
Added HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch/App4 (value data same as App3)
Added HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch/Cube4 (value data same as Cube3)
Changed HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch/TotalCubes from 3 to 4
And made a complete reset, all is ok, i have a 4 Face cube, thanks to butzchan
Now lets get some help on changing the reg values to have 6 different programs on each of the APLauncher cubes, for a total of 12. I wonder if you copy the APLauncher reg values and rename the copied values APLauncher2, it will work. Anyone?

nearly that simply
Create a new key by copying and pasting APLauncher i renamed the new key APLauncher4.
Alter the App4 string to 'APLauncher \Windows\APLauncher4.exe'
Then copy and rename the \windows\aplauncher.exe program to aplauncher4.exe
Then just alter the values to your requirement in the aplauncher4 key and reset.
Works a treat on mine.I now have another page with 6 fully programable buttons.
Great job.
Great find....
We can't have another side with contacts.

That was my next step. Now it works great! Thanks dude!
I am guessing to get another contacts page, all you would need to do is follow the same steps, just with App1 as the base.
Time to edit the other 6 apps.
OK, here are the results of our work. I will try to gather all informantions in the first post. Thank you all.

This was nice. Exactly one of the improvemets of the cube was waiting for.
Is it possible at all to do this?
Would be really nice
you have to change it in the registry.
some one on here will be able to tell you what bits to change.
i cant as mine is set to something else and you have to
set the right path and mine will be differant to what you want.

I can do better than that. I can point you to the cab I made of the relevant changes so all you need to do is install this one file!
Great job, but do tell if the video call button would come back or not if I uninstall the Cab file.
If not how can we bring it back if and when I want to
This freeware program is a great alternative. Includes a reset to default command.
http://fantasticbytes.com/products/softkeymanager
i got a kinda similiar problem..except i wanna change my left soft key which now says TODAY SCREEN to watever da the default was..i think it was PHONE on my tf3d home screen..the reason it says TODAY SCREEN was after i uninstalled the phone alarm cab i was left wit dat..now i cant figure out how to change it back..i tried da fantasticbytes softkey manager didnt change anything..so if anyone can help or point me to right link link..really appreciate it..thanx
Can someone give me the registry path, so I can choose witch programma I like to map?
I have the new 2.03 ROM installed but want to change the dailer softkeys.
Thanks
You would have to find out a way to edit the DLL from post #4.
Unlike the softkeys from the homescreen the softkey on the dialer work totally different.
I didn't realise we were talking about the dialer when I posted above!
You can change the Left Softkey to the default contacts application (iContact BE on my phone) by setting the following registry DWORD to 1:
HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\LSKContact
Cab file attached (my first ever)
Also, you can drop this file in your Windows dir. Just overwrite the original with Total Commander or Resco.

It just sets that one registry value, changing the left soft key of the dialer to "Contacts".
This launches the default contacts application - normally pOutlook but it should be iContact if you have installed it.
I installed the new iContact 0.9 and now it is default contact manager

Hi all.. i've searched for a while now and installed multiple plugins, but I still cannot add a "Programs" tab!! I want to be able to launch apps from titanium, is it possible?
I'm looking for the same thing - something to put my favorite apps on so I can launch directly from the Titanium panel.
I thought I saw something somewhere about this but now I can't find it. So I am looking too.....

There is a thread where a chome customizer is developed. With it you can add a plug in and launch your favorite programs, or you can add a new page to an existing plug in, and launch them from there,

hi, i have installed CHome editor but i dont know how to add a program to launch. any help please?
There is a very well explained guide here in post 2. I think you need a few hours on your hands to achieve results though as it does not look straightforward.

You create a new panel, Launcher for ex., then you add a new page and you add as url a program, then you add another page with another program to launch and so on. Then you can swipe from one page to the next one and tap to launch the program you want. If there are too many favorite programs you could add instead a folder with all the programs in there, or launch a program launcher like iLaunch.
Just a few thought how i would do it.
This is most likely the way to do it:
ACTIONURL= Location of exe/ink/etc for the plugin when you press on the panel or press the center D-Pad Button (Example: ”\Windows\fexplorer.exe” to make the plugin open File Explorer)
SK1URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK1TEXT= The text displayed for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK2URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Right Soft Key”.
SK2TEXT= The text displayed for the “Right Soft Key”.
DefaultXML/ExtensibilityXML= Active plugins and their order. Also tells CHome which CPR’s to use (filename).
Creating a Programs Tab
From my findings, it seems you can achieve the result you are looking for by editing 3-4 files.
1. bronzeres.dll (this contains the icons for each program you want to launch)
2. Titanium_###x###.cpr files (2 if you have a landscape mode)
3. registry change
What you need to do is change everything that is set for the CWelcomeCenter and turn it into your programs panel. Look at this post for an example of my registry change .dll and .cpr files for an example. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3651793&postcount=78
Hope this helps in your search
got it. Using CHome Editor:
1. open CHome Editor, click Add New Panel, create a name for it (ex. Programs)
2. after adding "Programs Panel", click on Add New Page, then choose "Program" from the list and click on "Create"
3. back to the CHome editor menu, click on Edit Items Value, and choose "Programs" from the list on the left hand list of panels.
4. choose Page 1, and then edit these values:
ACTIONURL= Location of exe/ink/etc for the plugin when you press on the panel or press the center D-Pad Button (Example: ”\Windows\fexplorer.exe” to make the plugin open File Explorer)
SK1URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK1TEXT= The text displayed for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK2URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Right Soft Key”.
SK2TEXT= The text displayed for the “Right Soft Key”.
5. Save and you're done

Thanks for the summary - it makes it so much easier when you see it in a list like that. Just to add for completeness before 5. above
PICTURES= location of the graphic to be displayed in the panel eg. \My Documents\Car.png
TEXT1= Text you want to appear in the panel eg. Tom Tom Navigator.
It just looks better with these added rather than having a blank panel.
TouchFlo is so yesterday
Is there mabye possible to make a cab file? Not all of us are xperienst "hackers"
If so, thanks a bunch

since they are created as registry entries, you may extract them as reg files using resco registry

Just added a new Program panel, which launches iLaunch, with text and icon and everything and it works nice. As i customized cHome quite a bit up to now, what everything do i need to backup, to restore it when i flash a new ROM, to get exactly cHome back as it is now?
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome
does anyone no how to get the slider sound on my touch pro2
i think i do... :
on the homescreen.. go to the setting tab.. don't use that tab cuz it's **** but tap 'more' in lower left corner.. then you get all settings.. and then you must tap 'Personal'(it think.. in dutch it's called 'Persoonlijk') and there you have an icon about the slidersound where you can select one..
is this what you meant?
how do we get custom slider sounds?
my quick guess. Find the location those particular sound files are held, put the correct file type into that directory.
this is what i did on a stock tmo rom. create the sound files you want in .wav format. create one for in and one for out. rename them to whatever.xwav. open up a mobile reg editor on your pc. navigate to hkey_local_machine\software\htc\sliding sound. create a new reg key. under value data,name it whatever you want,preferably the name of your sound file , do not put the file extension. just name it like kbin1 or kbout1. now create a new string value for that key. under value data, you must name your sound file the same as your key. example,if i named the new regkey 4, in the new string, the value data would be 4_in.xwav. and the value name would be in. create a new string for the out sound and repeat the process.
sliding
i do believe the sliding sounds from the raphael work also. they have a couple of cabs over there. use the search
Why does it take so much freaking work to do simple changes? You would think adding custom slide sounds would be as simple as ploping the new sounds in a directory and selecting it!
Im not one to go mucking around in the registry myself.. guess ill have to do without.
dude just go to the settings tab in touch flo 3d, then click all settings then hit the personal tab and then hit the icon that says keyboard sliding sounds.
Anyone have any luck with this?
I am using the "transforming" sound from Transformers. I have it where I can at least hear it under the Keyboard Slide Sound settings if I select it and Preview it. But when actually opening/closing my keyboard, I dont hear the sound. Just a default quick beep sound.
* Nevermind. Needed to restart the phone. Now it works!
While it was nice to get it to work, now I get a cprog.exe error anytime I open or close the keyboard with my custom sound activated. Damn it. Why cant things just work!
Hi,
To my opinion (that's what I did), I have placed all my sounds on my storage card (mp3 files) then transformed them in .wav (in the Windows folder) and re-transformed them in .wma files (placed in the Windows/Rings folder).
This way all the sounds I have are available whichever soft or event I nedd them for...
Hope it will help you.

Thanks for this useful info. I used a desktop reg editor to navigate to the hive you specified, created key 5 and copied the contents of key 4 to it making the relevant changes to file names and names. Cracking job.

Can any one upload dem?
