I was wondering if there was any way of allowing voice command to still voice the notifications from the calander while the phone is on vibrate...
I dont want to have to switch a bunch of things in the phone when i walk into work to get it to work correctly... I also have htc home - schen 2.10 and would like to be able to actively switch through there for the different sound options...
is there a reg value that i can edit? or something with the htc home that i can setup to just vibrate under the last option in the menu to my custom settings to set to just vibrate and stop sounds and notifications but allow the voice command come through without issues?
Thanks,
Dan
You can use a "silent" ringtone and set the phone to ring & vibrate. There is one around called silent.wav -- you can probably find it if you search for it.
that will solve one of my problems, but what about silencing the notifications for text messages... i want everything to vibrate but the voiced reminders....
uhm maybe use the same wav file for notifications too?
notifications can play a sound and vibrate at the same time?
Check out settings>personal>sounds & notifications>notifications. The event option is a dropscreen and you can pick the different things to configure.
Cheers...
brilliant... i was looking for this before but had a blonde moment appearantly...
now, is there any way to setup the sound settings in the htc home to revert to different ringer settings with the 4th option on the page? so at work i could have it work as one setting, and outside i can select the first and i can have it revert to ring and everything as normal?
i would like to custom set the different profiles...
Problem is windows mobile doesn't have more than 3 profiles. If you want more your going to have to install a 3rd party program.

Is it possible to change something in the registry in order to achieve both vibrating and audial alerts for alarms related to tasks, appointments and such?
As I have understood, it is possible to mute the sound and turn on vibrating alert. However, I'm very interested in using them both at the same time...
I've scanned the forum, but could only find a registry change making it possible to have increasing ring tones together with the vibrating feature.
Thanks!
Not sure if i've missed something, but i dont think you need any changes to the registry.
Settings (personal tab)
sounds & notifications
Notifications tab:
pick "reminders" (or whatever) pick the sound file and tick the "vibrate" box

Thanks a lot for that! Don't know how I managed not to notice those settings...
No problem
Personally i use Pocket Zen Phone (although there are others) which allow you to have different profiles wilthout having to manually change all settings every time (ie STFU when i wanna sleep, extra loud everything at work so i hear it, same but with bluetooth for the car etc).
Basically you can then have different sounds/vibrate options depending what you are doing.
Hi,
I am using the latest O2 ROM with the latest Vodafone ExtROM, which works fine, APART from when I use PhoneAlarm.
The default setting for notifications of SMS messages is no audio alert, no vibration, no LED, just yes to display message. Is there anyway of changing this, I've searched the registry and can't find it.
Before I installed PhoneAlarm, I could change the alert to play "notify.wav" for a text, and it worked fine... After I installed PhoneAlarm, I've gone into the profile settings, and the default for SMS Alert was "<SYSTEM>" which is muted like detailed above. I've changed all the profiles so that it's set to "notify.wav", saved it, but it still mutes the settings like above.
This worked fine on the T-Mobile ROM, is there anyway to fix it? As the T-Mobile ROM is SLOOOOOOOOOOOW.
Cheers guys (and ladies)

Looks like it's nowt to do with the ROM, just downgraded to the T-Mobile one, and up to the iMate one.
Whatever I set the SMS tone to in the profiles section of PhoneAlarm, I then go to the notifications tab in Settings, and the SMS Text Notification is muted. :-/
I have the trial version of PhoneAlarm, but don't think that's owt to do with it; not going to risk paying for the full version if it's gonna do this :-/
Anyone any ides please? :-/
Regards.

I have the registered version of phone alarm and my sounds¬ifications in settings are different to what i have set in the phonealarms profile settings screen.
Best thing to do is set your sms sound in phonealarm and save settings. switch to another profile then back to the one you have just changed. and send yourself a text.
It should sound as you have it set in PA rather than the settings you have in settings\sounds¬ifications. I dont think you should go into the S&N settings as PA takes over from them the next time you switch profiles. Just make sure you have stated a sound to play rather than using <system>.
Hope this helps.
Sorry if this seems like a couple of daft questions but I can't seem to find them out myself.
1) Is there a way to make the notification sound different for a text and an email. Right now if I receive either I hear the same sound, with the number of emails I get a day I tend to ignore it which now results in my not seeing I have a text till a couple hours later.
2) Is there some way to see how many texts and calls I've made over a set period of time? All the phones I've had before would give totals for me which I could then reset but I can't find that in this phone. I've downloaded an app called Phonalyzr but it doesn't do what I'm really after.
on the first point, go to Messages, press Menu --> Settings --> Select ringtone
same for email
hmm i dont seem to be able to do that. When I change the notification sound in either the messaging app or the default phone settings it changes in both. I dont have the option to change it in mail (I use activesync btw).
Its very annoying to have the same sound for both.
The notification sound set in the main phone settings will be for anything on the phone that you haven't set a different one for.
If you then go to messages and in the first messages window with "compose message" at the top, press menu / settings /scroll down to notication setting and choose select sound - you can then choose a different sound for messages.
There's currently no option to choose a different sound for gmail or mail as far as I know.

but when i open my Gmail, Menu, Settings, i get the Choose Ringtone option....first is Default Ringtone, then others :/
You are right Suisen - Thanks - Meant the HTC Mail one, but of course you can change the gmail notify to a seperate one. I just not done it on my Hero.
With most progs, if the app itself allows you to select a sound it'll have its own, but if not, it plays the one you choose in main Phone settings.

Cheers for that, now I know when to actually look at my phone when it makes a sounds
Hi all,
I have a question about the AT&T 8525. I already know how to set the notifications for the incoming calls and text messages using the Sound & Notification function. However, if I want to quickly change from sound notification to vibrate notification, e.g. when in a meeting, I have to go to that function again and change vibration to each events. I also know a quicker way to do is tap the volume icon and change the state to vibrate.
The question is whether there is a possible to create profiles for some occasions, such as outside, meeting, silence..., in which I can set the notifications for the events separately, and map that function to a button so that I can immediately change the profile by pressing that button rather than tap this and that, just like the way it can be done with the iPhone or V3i, for example.
Thank you very much all you guys.
PS: I'm using Tai_Sw's ROM - Manila2D 21893 Black 3G
We've all seen the feature where your phone will change your wallpaper randomly or at set intervals to one selected from a list or specified directory, but how about ring tones and notifications? I kinda want to be able to setup multiple notification sounds for a person and have it randomly play one when I receive a text. Like I use all archer quotes for one person now and just manually switch then occasionally (love that show... RAAAMMMMPPPAAAAAAAGGEEE!) But would be awesome to select a handful and have them do it randomly when texting. Is this even possible to accomplish?
Edit: I'm not sure how the android coding works for calling notifications to play,but could a program like lightflow that intercepts notifications to customize sounds and led flashing do something like this as an added feature?

I wish it was maybe ask a ROM dev to implement it

Nevermind you can use ligthflow for it hold in sound to pick tones
I tried to check lightflow but it wouldn't let me choose multiple sounds for notifications, how did you do it?

Activate default ringtone and hold the ringtone and change it
