Hi,
I work at a really loud place and i never hear my phone ring. Is there anyway i can make the ring tones louder. I have them set to the loudest in the settings. I am running the att rom. Thanks

If you already have set the ringtone volume at the loudes (note that this is a separate setting from the system notification volume!), you can try to edit the sound file itself.
Install the freeware Audacity ( http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ ) on your PC, open your ringtone mp3 file and do an "amplify". To make sure that the sound isn't clipped, you can do a "normalize" instead with a maximum amplitude of 0 dB.
Export as mp3, transfer back to your telephone and use that as your new ringtone!
there should be a registry edit to do this, but making it too loud will damage the speakers.

Thanks

I managed to tweak the registry and add sounds to change the keyboard sounds on my kaiser. I even downloaded some sounds from this site and am using the transformers sound as my default; but when I try and add my own wav files...No Luck!
I encode the wave files to the specifications as the sounds i downloaded and still no luck. Can anyone tell me what settings they use when they create wav files. I use Nero 7 as my audio tool but any info appreciated...Thanks
are you talking about the sliding tone?
if so
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > HTC > SlidingSound
Within this registry folder there will already be 3 folders numbers 0, 1 and 2. Highlighy SlidingSound then click on Edit > New Key. Name the key the next available number. Most likely this will be 3. Now you can either copy the three values from the other listings, or create new ones from scratch by highlighting 3 and clicking Edit > New String Value. They need to look like the following with the left values listed under Name and the right values under Data:
Default - whatever_name_you_want
in - filename1.wav
out - filemane2.wav
make sure you put the files into the windows directory. credit goes to "Bgrngod" on the AT&T forums/

I've done this and it works with the wav files that I downloaded from the internet but the problem is when I try to use my own wave files, it doesn't work. What bit rate should I use or are there requirements that only work?
i'm not sure if there is a bit rate requirement, I've done it to 3 other .wav clip sets all with perfect results. upload your files, i'll give it a try, see if we get the same results.
Cool!!! Thanks.......it's all very odd that the clips of the same kind will not work.....Guess we'll have to wit
One last thing......what audio software do u use???
for clips from movies, i mostly just search the net for them. there are tons out there.
for songs and or audio files i have, i use mp3 cutter trial version and wma cutter trial. it only allows up to 30 sec clips on the trial, but my phone only rings for 25 seconds so any more is just taking up space.
source for the music is either cds, napster, or itunes.
Here's my wav files.....really appreciate this!
Alright i made a cab that does the registry changes and pastes the Default .wav files in the /windows folder. All you need to do is make the 2 sound files that you would like.
Name them:
Custom-in.wav
Custom-out.wav
In the settings menu there will be a new field under the sliding sound icon named "custom". select that and you should be good... ENJOY

The cab worked awesome along with the defaults wav files but my wav files still won't play? Guess I'll try different bit rates......unless someone tries my wavs for feedback

Save them as a regular wav with windows sound recorder... I say a max of 2 seconds...
And the cab comes with e40 saying UGHHHH... hahaha
I downloaded some very small 10k wav files to use as notifications and SMS alerts..
I can play them with WindowsMediaPlayer.. on my pc and on my phone..
I have them in the windows directory and can select them as an alert.. but they dont play...
is there certain wav settings they need to be?
Bit rate, sample rates, mono or stereo..
maybe a setting i need to check in the registry?
Sounds like you're having a better experience than me. Can you post some links to the software you are using for this wonderful user experience?
If you are refering to the sms program im using to assign ringtones its mortring 0.992 pretty neat program, but only seems to work with wave files...
Greetings to all,
Im looking for a program that will make my tilt ring "LOULDER"
any help?
thanks...
there's a simple work around that you can do.. which is editing your ringtones with a simple mp3 editor (wavepad) and increase the volume of the ringtone.. it takes like 30 seconds.
Audacity.
Or This Link Make My Ring Louder
haha i was "curious" so i clicked on the link. good one!
I do it by installing WOWHD plugin and selecting "Headphones" option. This trick make all sounds (ringtones included) a lot louder.
i got rickrolled T_T
Hello with my first post...
I love my Diamond very much but there is one thing that really really pisses me out. That is ringtone volume when you pick your own mp3 or waw ringtone. Whenever i use a custom mp3 as my ringtone i barely hear the ring even the phone is in my pocket. But there is no such problem with the original ringtones. Even with the ones you dl from the htc club page. I compared their properties (khz, bit rate, etc) with the custom mp3s and they all look same. You guys have any solution for this annoying problem?

You can edit the files and raise their volume. Use an audio editing app like GoldWave.
Yeah that worked for me!
I used this and set gain to 98 and the result is perfect!

Thank you mate...
Anyone else think that the lowest volume setting is really loud for ringtones? I was using a song ringtone that I transferred over from my EVO4G and it's really really loud for the lowest setting.
On another topic, I then sent it to my computer to try to edit it using a sound editor, put it back on the phone in a Ringtones folder like before, and now it doesn't automatically appear in the list. I hit the + button at the top, select the track, and then get an error that HTC sound set has forced closed and do I want to send a report to HTC. Now every time I try to even change the ringtone, it force closes. The only solution is to change the name of the Ringtones folder.... any ideas as to wtf is going on?
Thanks
hmmmm
Did you maybe change the format of the song when you edited it? Like from MP3 to whatever else, I did that once, I would look at that.
Mine is loud too, but I like that cuz i'm almost 60 lol
