Does anyone know how to limit the time that SMS ringtone notifications? I had a ringtone assigned to my SMS notifications, it was 15 seconds long, and it played the whole thing. How can you make it stop by pushing a button like on other phones?

u can try to the volume slide key on the side of the device...or just go to www.myxer.com and customize ur own ringtone and length...u have to register but its free..from home screen scroll down and click 'explore' then search for ringtone or upload from ur PC...then right under/next to where it says 'send' u will see a 'customize' link click it and wah-lah crop how ever long or short u want and which part of song u want then just send to phone...awesome site
Why dont you just make a small 2-3secs mp3 file?

Is it accomplishable at all with the Kaiser? I don't like the NON Stop vibrate.. but if theres any way to change how it vibrates (ie: pulse) that would be GREAT.
Thanks

I agree!! I keep my phone in my front pocket (get your minds outta the gutter!!), and the non-stop vibrating notification isn't as noticeable as my pulse-vibrating razr. I know that you can customize the notifications, but the shortest vibration is 1 second. When you soft-reset the phone, there is a quick vibration, so it appears that pulse vibrating IS possible. It's just a matter of how.

Sorry, my mind is in the gutter and that just sounds rude - lol
But if you find an answer share the wealth
ive also been looking into this, all i came up with was this information which suggests that (after playing with various different scripts) that you cant get the vibration to turn on then off(wait) and on again while the ringtone is playing, it seems that the ringtone must play all the way through before it steps over to the next code in the script so from a regisrty point its an either or case right now.... anyway have a play.... maybe theres another way in which we can get the vibrate to execute from a different script than the ringtone...
Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics
If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.
a = activate device
cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume
fN = flash notification LED for N seconds
p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.
r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.
vN = vibrate for N seconds
wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.
anyone figure this out?
I have been playing with these settings and what I ended up with was no vibrate at all. Moreover it seems to reset to original script every time you switch between call notification modes. Something of this sorts seems to be acomplished with kaiser tweak (vibrate 3x and then ring) but it is not quite it. And you cannot permanently change registry script for this either.
So, so far tough luck.
so nothing at all?
SOLUTION
it's possible look:
"I made pulse vibration i'm missing such vibration in incomming calls so much.."

" pulse vibrations style and longer time up to 30 seconds"

This is from another thread. It works for me. You must install MortScript in order to make Treovibe work completely.

Never like that continous vibe either.
Here's a nice solution that I use. Treovibe.
You can make the phone vibrate just as u want it to with a bit of tweaking.

Oh, and you will need MortScript too.

i wanted to know if there was a way to lower the volume when im dialing the number. its as if my speaker is about to blow when im trying to dial a number. anyone know the registry edit?
Never did get a sloution for this, except by covering the speaker with my finger
Would be interested to know if there's reg hack, then we could pass it to the Kaiser Tweak guys!
There may be 3 ways to improve your situation.
The first would be to change from long tones to short tones. This wont reduce the volume, but if you have it set on long, it will shorten the amount of time the tone is emitted.
(Phone>Menu>Options> then change keypad to short tones)
The secdond would be to do the same as above, but to change it to "Nothing"
The third would be to turn t vibrate using KaiserTweak (a great app by the genii of xda-dev.com) where there is a setting to change the phone keypresses from tones to vibrate (KaiserTweak: Call > Dialer Button Behaviour"
u can also click on the speaker icon and bring down the volume for the mobile icon. but this will reduce the overall volume of ur device.

i dont have this option on my kaiser tweak
make sure u update your xml file, provided by nikagl
i have the one from dec. 9 and even on his post under calls it doesnt show a Call > Dialer Button Behaviour"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349009
thats the latest, and i just checked there is no dialer button behavior.
Only solution i can think of is that you would need to turn down the system volume, since it is a system sound. However, you can try searching for the dialer sounds, modifying them with a sound editor(decrease the amp, or something like that.) so you can keep your system volume up, while dialer doesnt deafen you.

If you looks through the Kaiser Tweaks thread, it's in there. Not in the actual xml thread, but in the one where you post questions. You could try searching vibrating keypad and variations of the like. He actually made an xml file for it, and it's posted in that thread, he just didn't include it in the official release.
I tried it out, and it seemed to work fine. Like a dummy, I stopped using it, because I thought it would no longer work with automated systems (like checking voicemail etc.) but then I realized the sound I hear has nothing to do with the info transmitted by the phone lol, so I may have to give it another try.
i found the right XML file with more tweaks than i had...for those that want it here it is
Lovely - I hadn't noticed the Tweak update - All quiet now!
Hi all, on my previous HTC Wizard the side slider would control the volume of callers when on a call. During an incoming call if I needed to mute the ringtone, a quick slide of it would do that too. In fact all mobiles I know will mute an incoming call ringtone by pressing volume up/down.
But how are either of these two features possible on the Kaiser?
hmmmm..my scrollwheel does control the call volume
thats wierd, even on a stock rom tilt you can use the scroller for volume during call.

Do you actually own a Kaiser? or are you just asking how it works?
as both these features you have mentioned work fine on the Kaiser's scroll wheel.
Okay I am starting to get to the bottom of this. I do own a Kaiser, but have the HTC Enlarge Title Bar app installed. This was a very useful app that made finger usage easier. When you tap say the volume icon, it produced a large bubble with bigger icons for volume, data, phone, etc.
I have uninstalled it and the scroll wheel does now change volume during a call. Before, just the bubble would pop up! Shame, as it was an otherwise nice app.
BUT, I still cannot mute an incoming call ringtone like all other phones allow you to. Any ideas on that one?

Mine mute's with the wheel.
Not muting by wheel..
I have the exact same problem; cannot silence the ringtone by using the scrollwheel, worked perfectly on default ROM...
Maybe has something to do with S2U2? (Cause i didn't have it on the previous ROM)...
Any clues would be nice!
I already posted the solution above. It does now seem to also silence the ringtone if you uninstall the Title Bar app.
Is there any way i can remap any of my hard buttons to silence an incoming call?
I check under Buttons but no dice. I've also check with Advanceconfig but couldnt find the right menu. Is this even possible?
just scroll the jog dial and it will be silent... =)
some roms hve a dialer where the left soft key button is the silence button but u gotta search around for that dialer cuz i dont have it on top of my head
search for vibra switch

As simple as that! No need to install anything else!
Or hit the end call hard key and dump the call directly to voice mail.

And remap your PTT switch to that. Ive done that,one press, instant vibrate.Good for meetings, social events , anywhere one press silence is needed, but you still need the vibrate alert.

Tried but no dice. Didnt know the END key can silence the ringtone. Thanks.
Vibra switch works wonders! It'd be nice if they incorporated a switch for the ringtones just like in the T650/T680 i had.
I've done some searching but I'm really not sure what it's called, so all my results have come up with nothing.
I just want the volume control from wm6.1, where you press the volume icon and it brings up all the notifications such as the volume icon, Edge/3G, your phone signal, and battery. Usually it brings up 4 icons.
Most wm6.5 roms now have this new htc "notifications." The only problem with it is you can't adjust your volume anymore by pressing the volume icon, you need to map the volume to a different button.
I just installed m2d on mine, and can't adjust in call volume anymore. When I scroll the wheel during a call, it just adjusts system, and ring volume, never changing in call volume. It is so loud during the call I set the phone during a call and listen from 5 feet away. So I would be interested in this as well, it would be nice to go back to the stock volume control via a .cab file.
Think your asking for Large Title Bar..... I'm not sure you can have Large Title Bar with the new notifications?
Atached is VoluPOP it installs to Windows & Places a .lnk in Start Menu/Programs so you can map it if wish?

boss1234, in the latest PDAcorner (august 11th) the in call volume problem has been fixed. alternatively, you could do what mrdiavolo did to fix the problem and install Mega Canvas:
