How to Increase Ringing Time? - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

Sorry for what might be an incredibly stupid question - my Touch Dual only rings for about 20secs which is frequently not enough time for me to answer it. Anyone know how to increase this time? I've been through the manual but can't find an answer on how to do this.
cheers

it's operator depends

Thanks but I don't think that's right - I had a Sony Ericsson phone before my HTC & I could change the ringtone length to whatever I wanted

You need to go Start > Settings > Phone > Network > Services > Call Forwarding
And in there you can set the timeouts before diverting to voicemail, but the length of times available to choose from are network dependant. The max I can set is 30 seconds.

[QUE] How to get Cell information?

Hi guys,
is there any way to get cell broadcast information on my wm5? I want to see broadcast message.
I read somewhere in this forums that it is possible by going to Start > Settings > Phone > More > Broadcast channel but I can not find any More tab on my phone settings.
Also I use Cell profiler 2.0 but each time I run it I got Failed to connect Com2: error.
Is it possible to get cell broadcast information throught GPS settings?

here is the screen shut from my phone setting in control panel there is no "More" tab.
no idea guys?

How to NOT allow calls while on EVDO?

I am wondering if there is any way to send all incoming calls to voicemail when I am using PDAnet to get online. I know there is a PDAnet setting to "allow calls when connected" but even if I uncheck this, calls still come through and discconect my internet.
The reason I'm posting this here is because if something specific to PDAnet isn't available, or possible, is there anything that I can do to the phone to not have incoming calls disconnect my internet connection? I had a Motorola Q for a little while, and there is a "bug" that actually does this automatically (sends call to voicemail while on EVDO). It was a setting in the DEBUG menu, in the field test option, called DDTM, and it was by default on (I think), and so people had to change that to off (could be switched) to allow incoming calls. It was perfect for me though. Now, I think I tried looking for a DDTM setting in the mogul and I had found it a while back, but I dont think it did anything with regard to my situation. So my questions are:
Is there anything with PDAnet that I can do besides the setting I talked about? Registry or something...?
If nothing with PDAnet, then does anyone know how to change the DDTM setting on a mogul? I got into the DEBUG menu (##33284#) and I didnt find any DDTM setting there.
Besides the DDTM setting (since it hasn't worked for me in the past) is there any other method you guys can think of that will do what I want?
Thanks!!
Try going to phone settings > services > mode of operation > change from hybrid to EVDO only.

Hmm, that does seem to work for my last option. But I cant receive any calls at all when in this mode, so I guess I would have to manually change this each time . Is there any way this entry can be automatically changed somehow with a script or a registry change?
How I dont see mode of operation under services list. This is all I have:
Location setting, Voice Privacy, Network Service, TTY Mode, and Time Sync
Found this on an old thread somewhere.
edit the registry to make that option appear in the services list. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHING\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting
Change HiddenPreferenceMode from 1 to 0
I am on WM6 and the correct registry to change to make the "Mode of Operation" selection appear is: HiddenModeOperationPage (set value to 1 to hide, and 0 to show).

I haven't used this functionality in WM before, but I believe that it is in regards to establishing a network connection (GPRS/3G/HSPA).
You can try confirming that by connecting to your carriers data service and feel for the 'vibe'

thats not for calls its for wifi etc.
Thanks very much.
What I want is something like the HTC Diamond - you got a little vibration when the call connects, any idea how to get it on the xperia?
it appears that this has something to do with diamond's phonepad? has anyone extracted it out?

How to deactivate international call barring

Hi All,
how to deactivate international call barring. I tried to deactivate it in HTC hero. But it asks a password. I asked my network operator O2 (Germany). They said, that the password is set by HTC. But I checked the HTC manual and googled, I have not the password yet.
Does anybody know this password?
Best regards from Munich
BS. theres no such password set by HTC, so it must be o2.
No bar on making international calls on my Uk Hero either. And at what Orange charge me for them I am sure they want me to make as many as I can
Or do you mean roamimg, i.e. using the phone when abroad? If so then often networks block that.
What steps did you take to try to activate international calling, because I have never even seen an option on my phone for doing that

Is the "outgoing international" box got a green tick against it? If not then the outgoing international calls are NOT called barred. On mine the ones above headed "all outgoing" and the one below headed "all incoming" are the same - i.e. with no green tick in the box and "disable" underneath. So on mine there are no bars.
But when I click on it it asks me to provide a password so that I can set up call barring, not so that I can get rid of it.
If any of the boxes have a green tick and you did not put it there then somebody has probably barred the calls and put their own password in. Since this is something that the user can do I do not think it will be HTC who will have done it
if it asks for a password, this is usually limited by the PIN2 on the SIM. This is set by the network and not by HTC.
If this is what you have got, with the ticks and everything, ask the network for the PIN2 of your SIM. They should be able to provide it as most networks set it to a default value, just as they do the standard PIN.
if you can not work around it..
You can look at calling cards.. which will save you money in the long run.
The calls are considered local calls on Calling cards.
just an idea....
good luck

Stop push e-mail

I'm looking to use the data connection only when I particularly tell the phone to do something that requires internet access.
That's because my provider rounds up to 0.01GBP whenever the connection is used. It's unfortunate, and if you know a PAYG service in the UK that doesn't do this, let me know!
On my last phone I just turned off push e-mail. But I can't see how to do this on the Omnia II. I've looked in all the menus I can think of.

Have you gone to Tool>Options in Email, then selected your account? In the next page you select "Send/Receive Schedule" and change the "Automatic Send/Receive" setting to <Manually>
That may solve your problem.
could also try
Start > Activesync > menu > schedule > sync during change the times to ever x minutes insted of as items arrive
