Want to create your own keyboard sliding sounds?WM6 comes with three by default, and you can't add custom ones...
Or can you?
Using a registry editor, nav to:
\HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound
There are 3 keys: 0,1, and 2. These represent the three current sounds: piano, xylophone, and whatever the third is.
Make a copy of one of these and name it 4. Inside 4, set Default to the name for your sound. Then make the In and Out point to the appropriate wav's in the Windows directory.
Soft reset your device, then go to Start > Settings > Keyboard Sliding Sounds. Your new entry should appear in the list.
Hope it helps!!

And do you have cool sliding sounds for download. I already searching a long time for cool ones.
Regards, Tommy
Yeap Indeed, Can someone please link us some sliding sounds??it would be very helpfull for the p4350 community
Well, after downloading a bunch of free sound FX, I've chopped them up and sped them up/slowed them down... Here's a few to try. I think they're pretty cool, better than the built in ones at least...

I know ya gotta love the Transformers.
the transformers sounds are really cool. i did speed them uip slightly and lowered the volume
guys...what am I doing wrong here? total commander won't allow me to copy or past in any of the directories?
I followed the above steps...but when it comes down to it...I can use the "copy/move" ....but then it won't allow mw to paste.
I also can't copy my sound from my mem card to any windows directory.
I'm totally new to WM and making mods to my WING...any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
yeah i dont understand how this works either do you guys think you can make more explained instructions thanx

It seems like you try to make a classical PPC copy paste by the tap and hold and you're not supposed to act that way.
Be sure to use the Copy/Move option in the File menu to do so.
Good luck.

Im getting really frustrated because I dont understand what Im doing...I love my Wing tooo much to give up though!

i love the sound effects! thanks a lot dude!
Why not just edit the already existing sound effects.. like inside the folder 0 you can edit the in and out entries.. like on my hermes I edited '0' folder in registry to be the transformers sound by editing in with value data of my documets/slider4_in.wav and out with my documents/slider4_out.wave
For those having trouble following this guide, I have one at the HoFo Forums. Should be real easy to follow.
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195063&highlight=Sliding+Sound+Guide
My Take
For those of you who are having trouble creating amd understanding the reg file, any easy way to do it is to just edit the ones already listed. That really is just the easiest. Just make sure you copy your wav files into the Windows folder on your device. And for a treat, my sounds; a Lightsaber!

i guess the easiest way is to
1) download the wav-files and rename then to 3_in.wav and 3_out.wav (the number 3 depends on the number of previously installed sounds)
2) edit the registry on your device (as instructed in the 1st post)
3) connect to activesync.
4) explore your device, go to the windows directory (on the device). and then copy the .wav files into the windows directory.
5) restart the device
6) edit sliding sound settings and it should work
WTF...am I doing wrong
Try as I might (I am regedit savy!) I still can't get this trick / hack / addon to work.
Reg settings seem fine, softreset...nothing...???? WHY
Sound files in windows work perfectly as I've run them directly from a command line address so I know they are pointed to correctly within the 2 paths.
Any help would be appreciated.
SHORTCUT
i first copy original wav to sd. then use the rename trick. right click on original name and select rename. then using the touch screen keyboard press the ctrl key + c. then take the sound u want to use and right click it and select rename. then use touch screen keyboard and press ctrl key + v. now that u have rename ur new sounds with the original name, hightlight both in and out sounds and copy them too the windows folder, overwritting original sound. then go to settings and change sliding keyboardsounds with the original name of one u over written.
are there any programs to allow for slider sounds for the mda???
i have the star trek sounds PM me if you want tehm
Hi to everyone,
I just installed HTC.Kaiser.Home.Eng.0409.5Tab.schen.cab and I renamed right dll (I have an italian wm6).
All ok, home plugin appears but... I can't add items to favorite people or launcher. I tried with 3 tabs version and seems all ok: I can add shortcuts to launcher simply tapping on an empty space. With 6 version if I do the same thing, nothing happens. I can only delete items...
Anyone with same problem and hopefully with a solutino?
I had the same issue. Then I have installed the touch plugin.
However if someone has any solutions regarding this....
nobody has any solutions for this issue ?
did rename all theese?
HTCHome.dll.0409.mui -> HTCHome.dll.0414.mui
HTC HDlg.exe.0409.mui ->HTC HDlg.exe.0414.mui
HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml -> HH_0414_WeatherCities.xml
htcbtql.dll.0409.mui -> htcbtql.dll.0414.mui
(0414 is norwegian countrycode ofcourse, yours needs to be the italian....ofcourse )
If not there is a whole bunch of HTC home plugins, why not give them a try?
I use the HTC.Kaiser.Home.Eng.0409.6Tab.schen.cab without any problems after renaming the .dll, .mui and the .xml files
besides, try use total commander for editing.
Another thing worth noticing is that all files in windows folder are read-only, and you cant change or edit them...
But, if you use total commander, then go to your windows dir, select all files within the win folder, go to properties, then uncheck the read-only box.
Then you can in.ex change the windows boot screen (not the splash from HTC) you can edit the welcomehead.png and be able to replace the original with your new one
Ok for the moment I have the HTC home of the THT Touch.
I will remove it and install the kaiser plugin again
(I use Resco explorer)
Ok I have installed a new time the kaiser plugin and rename all the files.
That is working correctly now
Thanks a lot itje
no problem, glad I can help out, allthoug I did only point out what someone else has figured out
btw, I cant get the kaiser 10 button to work, I get that the file dont have the permissions to install, even though i disable com manager, but I got the 8 button touch com to work, its good enough for the time beeing
yes, there were some other files to rename. Thx
Ok, go ahead and bash me, I have been trying for two weeks and still do not get it. I have read post over and over and simply do not understand the "computer lingo". I have a ATT Tilt 8925. I have installed the HTC Home screen with the customize application. I live in Thibodaux Louisiana and the only city I can get is New Orleans which is 60 miles away. My Tilt has a factory ROM and the only things i installed were:
HTC Home plugin
HTC home customize
fff Finger friendly finder
large start-up menu
opera mobile 8.65
I do understand that with a new patch I should be able to receive any city. The problem is I DO NOT understand or can not figure out what patch I need. I have read a lot of post, I do not know which one I need because of the "lingo" used. I am a police officers not a tech. Can somebody please assist me in getting my local weather by laying it down in layman's term!!! This would make my tilt complete. I know a lot of guys would be happy.
ok, go ahead and make fun of me, then after please help. If you are willing I would even be glad to give a call to someone.
Thanks again !!!
Ok, here is how I got mine to work. First install HTC home customizer. Then soft reset. Then in HTC home customizer, edit the city and save it to cutom.
Then copy the .dll file to your windows folder on your phone. Soft reset and everything should work.
BTW, unzip the dll file first before you paste it to the windows directory.
Ok, I installed the HTC Custom and it workng fine. I know how to enter the city of choice but I do not understand whats a .dll file, were its located and were to install it.
Are you talking about the windows folder under My Device? And once you show me were this .dll file is, any special place in the windows folder it needs to got. I guess I can cut and paste it there correct.
Thanks for the help, just need a little more info.
What a .dll file and were its located?
What I just did was download the attached file you had and unzipped it on my PC then transported it to my tilt. I cut and paste it under My Device>windows and and paste it at the bottom. Soft reset and still unable to gather data. When selecting a new city. I selected custom and enter my city (Thibodaux)> then my zip code "70301" then country USA. After each selection I tapped "X" to save and at the end I tapped exit.
Any thoughts
Nope thats it. Just soft reset & then go to the weather tap & it should sync.
When I enter my zip code do I enter anything else other than the numbers?
I noticed at the bottom of the tab it had some format/letter etc, all I enter was my zip code numbers?
Also should I be seeing other cities when I am on the home page when I tap the city icon. It only shows my city (Thibodaux).
I do notice when it is searching, the internet is running. Also from the factory it searches using MediaNet I beleive. Also, I am not using a proxy. All my internet setting are from the factory.
Is it possible I have the wrong HTC Cutomizer downloaed. I downloaded the
"v0.8" version the other one was the v1.0????
Tried again and after searching, unable to gather data ETC.
Again, thanks and help!!
I am going to try and install the HTC Customizer on the phone instead of the storage/memory card and see if that will amke a difference. The HTC home and cusotmizer work good being on the storage card. Anyway stand by and will try.
No different, same message; "unable to gather data from selected city"
Okay, Do this. DL the attached file. Unzip & Put both files in \windows directory.
Go to HHC customizer. select the weather tab, selesct custom database, select add city enter you city exactly like this (use your city info of course):
Palo Verdes, CA USA 90732
No periods in USA or after the state abbreviation.
You will only see the citys taht are entered into the custom database, that's why only the one shows up.
Ok, stand by
ok, I downloaded the attached file you have on your last post. I unzipped it on my device and put everything under windows then soft reset and still no luck. I did notice that your file had an Opera icon (weather cities) in it. The other that I downloaded from above did not have this.
Thank for you time, any other suggestions??
I have put so many different files in here to try and get it to work, I will just load my saved "back-up" and start again.
Any help from you guys!! I really would like this application to work. Everything else I have installed has worked w/o problems except this one.
Simple' I just want to be able to located my city!!!!
I can find it on any other weather program.
To make this clear, this are the programs I have installed, is there any more I need?
HTC Home plug In
HTC Home Customize (I believe that the weather patch is installed in this program already?/? correct??)
The attached .dll file that's attached above.
Is this all I need to retrieve other cities??
I am determinded to get this right, as you can see!
Unfortunately I'm not able to help you with the HTC Weather piece, but I am running PocketWeather from http://www.sbsh.net and checked and your city is available in there. So if you are unable to get this fix and still want weather, this is an option. Unfortunately it isn't free, but you could always download a trial and see if it works for you before buying.
Another free option would be WeatherToGo from http://www.tonaya.com/products/wtg/index.php but I don't know if they have your town in there or if it can be customized.
Good luck in your quest.
Thanks, I think I will just go ahead and purchase the sbsh weather.net program if I can not resolve this issue.
1. Install HTC Home Customizer 1.05 whic I think u said u did.
2. Start HTC1.05, in the weather tab, change your city and add to the custom database.
3. Soft reset.
4. Sync phone with pc. (its just easier this way, trust me)
5. Once synced copy the .dll file I uploaded earlier (using ur pc not the phone) and paste it to the windows folder of your phone.
6. Soft reset.
7. Now you must be able to access the internet with your phone for all of this to work. Click the weather tab and click in the area where it asks you to and it will download your weather data.
Hope this helps.
I downloaded the v0.8 version of the cutomizer, does this amake a difference?
Did you go back into customizer & re-enter the custom city data & make sure there are no periods?
I've followed your directions, when I tried to paste the dll file into my windows directory through my PC, the windows directory did not show up. So I tried to copy it from the my documents directory to the windows directory using the file explorer on the phone and it said it could not copy over the file due to access restrictions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in Idaho and the closest city I can get is 4 hours away.

Ok you are just trying to find an HTC Home that will let you get your local weather? If i am correct, then download and install these files in order:
http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/SdkCerts.cab
http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/htchome-2.1-n2a.cab
http://www.pocketemu.com/request11.html
Once all 3 are installed, run the customizer and set up your weather!
I've got mine to work with all the aforementioned assistance. However, it only updates the weather either via WIFI or ActiveSync. Is there no way to get this to work through the proxy?
Thanx.
Ericc191, thanks for that post. I'm wondering if that will make a city work that doesn't work when you edit the xml? I tried before doing the regedit change to add my code in, but it still couldn't find it through accuweather.
** UPDATED **
PLAzmA's Sliding Sound Pack for TYTN II (Kaiser) and windows mobile phones with slide out keyboards
*Note: only use the NUMBERED CAB files to install if you are using a TYTN II Phone or if you have the standard HTC Sliding sound system built into your rom. If however on phones like the HTC Wizard where no sliding sound is currently present, install the SlidingSound.cab file, and then launch the program and assign the files manually. The Numbered CAB files will not work for the older phone method.
List Of WAV FILES USED:
0 : Wind Chimes
1 : Piano
2 : Xylophone
3 : Futurama Bender
4 : Might Boosh
5 : Startrek TOS
6 : Dalek
7 : Cash Register
8 : Electricity
9 : Electric Motor
10: Hal 2001
11: POP
METHOD 1: TO INSTALL NEW HTC PHONES LIKE KAISER BY CAB FILES:
This is really easy pick one of the numbered install files from "Kaiser - Modern Phones CAB Install Files.rar", you can either install the complete pack or just one of the sounds, however as it must have a constant number sequence in the registry, its programmed to replace the 3 base sounds in every pack. This is to ensure that the pack works correctly despite possible older mods. This means if you remove a pack it will also take the 3 base sounds with it, however at any time you want to go back run the htc base sounds pack, make sure you first uninstall the previous pack completely and the run the base pack install cab.
*Note: above numbered cab method only for newer phones with htc slide service like the kaiser, DONOT install onto older phones like wizard as this will not work see the next method.
METHOD 2: TO INSTALL BY ADD ON SLIDINGSOUND.CAB METHOD TO OLDER PHONES:
Install cab file and run sliding sound program, turn on slide detect service and assign wav files manually, refer to the list above for the appropriate numbers, there are two files to select from a simple "SlideSound.cab" file which just has a basic pop noise, additional sounds will need to be install manually, or to install the program and sounds all in one go, install the "SlideSound - All Sounds.cab"
*Note: above cab method is only for phones without the htc sliding sounds program built into your rom and only required on older phones like the herms, wizard etc..

Hi:
Thanks for posting this!
Sorry for the dumb question. Do I copy just the wav files to Windows, or the reg files also? If not, where do I need to place the reg files (I want to install all sounds)? I placed the All Sounds file in My Documents, and clicked on it, it opened reg editor, but did not seem to apply changes, as they are still not visible under sliding sounds.
Thanks so much for the help.
when i try to open the all sliding sounds.reg i get the message "The specified file is not a registry script" please advise
To import registry file you need phm reg edit.
PHM Registry Editor
http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
Try installing this and then open the file again

Hi Plazma:
I do have PHM Reg Editor.
I copied the all sounds file to my documents, and clicked on it, which did open PHM reg editor, but it didn't seem to make any changes. The sliding sounds are still not visible in settings etc. I have soft reset etc. and I still do not see the new sounds. Should they be visible in the standard sliding sound settings?
Any idea what I could be doing wrong? Do I maybe need to have all the reg files on phone, or is it enough to use all sounds only?
Thanks again!
Check new install

Thanks so much, I was VERY sick of the piano sound
hi all,
Any chance of uploading it elsewhere other than rapishare or megaupload? Preferably mediafire or yourfilehost? Thanks ya!
Uninstall?
I have uninstalled this after I tried to make it work on my X1 (but failed) using the second option, and I am presented with an error at startup that it could not find slidesound.exe. I have checked the registry and cannot find anything in there. Any ideas??
Thanks
Worked fantastically on my Tilt 2. I love the Dalek one
Hey guys. Well, I have the HTC Fuze (aka Touch Pro) and I love to use the slide-out keyboard. Well, using it with the latest HTC Youtube Application (v1.6.1820.4128), I found that the orientation did not switch and that a thin white rectangle would appear on the screen to show me what I typed. I think that those of us with this agree that it looks ugly.
I did a bit of tinkering and found that the Youtube.exe in the latest version does not orient Search to landscape properly on the Touch Pro. The only version that seems to do this properly is the one from the Diamond. To get the benefits of both worlds (latest Youtube and working landscape Search) all we need is the Youtube.exe from the previous version. No need to change any other files or add/delete registry entries.
Needed File: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=E8OM7PD4
Solution:
1. Go to your device's Windows folder and backup the original Youtube.exe.
2. Replace the original exe with the one you downloaded. Use TotalCommander or any other program that lets you edit system files. Overwrite if prompted. If you are unable to replace the file, soft reset your device and try again.
Now enjoy!
The only disadvantage of the Youtube.exe from the older version is that the Program Guide will not appear if you do not have any custom favorites/channels added. If you do add a custom favorite/channel, the Program Guide will appear like it did in the original HTC Youtube, but the Auto &Vehicles channel will give the error "No Videos Found". Anything you add will start at #13 and count up (14, 15 ,16, ...).
Program Guide Style Editing (If you do not want the default channels)
1. Use your favorite Registry Editor and navigate to
HKLM\Software\HTC\Youtube
2. Now inside this, find the ProgramGuideStyle key and change its value from 1 to 0. Hexadecimal or Decimal doesn't matter since 0 is the same in both number systems.
Now you will have a Program Guide whose only default channel will be "All Videos" and anything you add will start at 2 and count up (3,4,5, ...).
