I know we have a bunch of threads for sliding sounds with transformers, mario,etc. I was thinking to start one whole new thread for Sliding Sounds. I am going to be doing a video and post it on Youtube that shows how to create custom sliding sounds from scratch using sound bytes collected from the internet. It will be a full tutorial. I am also willing to do phone support for people who are better with directions when spoken to them. I will only charge 1usd via paypal and that will be donated to this forum. Any slide sounds you guys wants. PM Me i'll get the sound files you request and we can walk through creating the custom slide sounds.
I will also be making .CAB files for custom slide sounds. Put in your requests guys.
How about a nice exotic car starting up and rev?
this one is gonna be good...I have been waiting to learn how to do this....I have seen other posts describing how to do it, but I always think im gonna mess up my phone. thanks can't wait!
Hey Guys,
Just got done making a sliding sound. It's a dodge viper starting up, when you close it drives away so beautifully. This is the first cab I ever made!!! I'm a pretty smart guy so don't worry guys it's perfectly safe. I tested it on my device and it works flawlessly. Heres the CAB file. Keep sending me your requests and i'll make some more CAB files. YOUTUBE video coming soon. I'll show you guys how to manually go into REGISTRY and make your own custom sounds. Hope you guys enjoy it.
SOUNDS GREAT! Thanks mate!
I have a REALLY DIFFICULT one for you. If you can find this one..you're a STUD.
Samurai Sword going out of the sheath and of course going back in.
1. a cute anime girl giggling would be cool. Nothing too loud.
2. The noise made in a kung fu movie when someone gets his. (I think it's wood being smacked together)
3. someone saying " oooooohh aahhhh" like they are envious of the super bombass kaiser.

HAHA! Good ones!
I should have those done by tonight when i get home from work.
right now i'm working on a simpsons sliding sounds. When you slide it out you hear Homer screaming, when you slide it shut you hear Bart laughing. Should be done soon. I'll upload the files tonight when I get home.
One more. How about a turbo spooling for open...then a blow off valve (pssssssh!!!) for the close?
If you need...I have the BOV sound....just not the turbo spooling (high pitched whine ascending)
this looks like a great option for those too worried about messing about with the registry.
Many thanks.
Great news guys. Ok pardon my tardiness but I work full-time as well as school full-time. Ok guys I have a set of instructions you guys must do to install my cabs.
Step 1: open you file explorer, can be found in your start menu or in the programs list.
Step 2: go into the windows folder
Step 3: Located the files called 3_in.wav, 3_out.wav, 4_in.wav, 4_out.wav Keep doing until you are done. If you don't see them then you are ready to move to step 4
Delete them, it will delete the current custom sliding sounds you have on your device and just keep the default ones such as xylophone, piano, and the other one.
Step 4: After you delete said files drag the folder with the SLIDING SOUNDS CABS into either your Storage card or Device, via activesync or emailing them to yourself as an attachment from your computer.
**** For advanced users who have PHM registry editor or another Registry Editor program. Navigate to HKLM, Software, HTC, Sliding Sounds, Delete Keys 3 through whatever.*****
Step 5: Install the Sliding Sounds in number order as I have numbered them 0-5 Make sure they are in number order. They will overwrite those crappy sliding sounds that come with the phone.
the mario when he gets a mushroom and then loses (or gets smaller again).
Ok guys withough further ado (did i spell that right) I present sliding sounds pack 1. This pack includes:
Dodge Viper, starting up and driving away
Starcraft Siege Tank, Transforming and going back to normal (as requested, i got your back dude), Sword Play, Sword Noise and then the sound of the sword clashing with another, Wood, Sound of wood doing what would does I guess, Jet, A jet engine starting up and then Revving, Scooby Doo, Scoobys Laugh and then when he says Duh! Hope you guys enjoy them, I put some time into these. I initially said 1 dollar for sliding sound but I hope you guys will donate to this great site, as I will too. Damn Bank Authorization!!
Tomorrow I will upload Sliding sounds 6-10
They will include:
Homer Simpson Screaming when you open the phone , And Bart laughing when you close the phone
the other 3 will be open to suggestions so start poaring them in people.
Oh yeah if you guys don't want to lose the current custom sliding sounds you have in your phone, tell me which ones you will be losing in exchange for installing my cabs and I will include it in a future Sliding Sound Pack.
ALL CABS ARE WORKING 100 PERCENT FULLY TESTED.
Great work man!

GREAT WORK
Question:
You mentioned above, I have to install the files in order 0-5 . How about I just want to use one of them , number 5 , in this case. Can I just go straight to install it and skip the other ?
OK, thats great. I have a suggestion, what about some xxx sounds. U know, something like: uhh, ahh from xxx-films. That would be funny.

hope you recognize the music, It's the songs that were used in doom, which were made into midi versions in the game.
nice. the playback looks smooth. do you know what frame rate you are getting?
and, where can I get that!?
Excellent! Didn't know that existed, I've downloaded and been playing it myself for the last hour. Controls take a bit of getting used to, but otherwise its ace!
For those searching for this game, search for gfdoom to get the program then doom1.wad for the maps.
hey Mikey! would you like to release your configuration files or are you using the default ones?
this game is tha bomb. first game I played on my first PC. imho doom2 wad is the best. I just love double barrel shotgun.
thx again
bro

Any more info to help the rest of us re live this timeless classic???
Is there an option to make it into landscape mode?

Giles! its nice to see you on the forum!
First off, I'd like to thank danits for showing me how to configure doom with the keyboard.
ok so to make it landscape you must go into options and toggle the quality from low and high. this wont really change the quality, it rotates the screen.
as far as configuring keys, check out the other doom thread I made in the Development and Hacking section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369438&page=2
there is a program you can use, that when you press a key, it gives you a code. this code is required for assigning keys in doom. see my examples in the other thread.
and here's my skin file, with keyboard support.
the controls are the same as all my other config's if you've used them.
and keep in mine ive made the windows key the button to flip the screen.
That is soo cool... thanks for the video =)

its really a shame the author never finished his last update. he came soo close, it was literally just a a couple days away, then he disappeared.
his updated WAS going to contain a much easier way to configure keys
proper keyboard support
MUSIC
improved peformance i think
he was also working on a zdoom port.
its too slow, but that would have been worked on too if he didnt disappear.
Where is the WAD
ANy one found where you can get a functional WAD file.
THe link to Jimmy software is either dead or just a front screen.
google.com
Ok after playing with it last night, it works, BUT
it does not work with gfDOOM Launcher.exe.
it gives me an "Doom Error"
You cannot -file with the shareware version.
register!
If I start from gfDOOM.exe it works but I can not get it to landscape mode
no matter what I do.
I dont know why is everyone makes this hard to get this game with all necessary files.
Careful. If you have posted a link to the full game its against the forum rules (it is warez).
I'd remove it if I were you.

I've noticed a lot of the ROMs remove the original set of ringtones and other sounds and surprisingly people want them back!
It occurred to me that other like me might be happy the originals were removed but would like a decent ringtone/sounds collection to replace them with.
Does anyone have or know where a good place to get these from?
I'm aware people have different tastes but there should be a place where we can find decent collections i.e. Dance, Rock, Futuristic, Techno, Jazz, Hip Hop etc. I know it's easy for people to go through sites finding one tone here and another there but having collections in this forum would make it more ideal and a lot easier for all of us!
P.s. Searched and couldn't find a definitive thread about this matter although it's what a lot of people might be looking for!!
+1 I'd like to have this too
i have a great old phone ringtone...very loud

Now see this is what we need and maybe if there are other tones for notifications for instance, which could be considered loud, we can bundle them and make a collection called 'Loud tones'.....sorry about the original and exciting name I've suggested!!
A good collection of tones
Used to have the Nokia N81 8GB and remembered it has some interesting tones. So went a hunting and managed to track them down.
Attached for your enjoyment.
Remember: Store them on the /Internal storage/My Documents/ folder. Only the files in that folder, no sub folders or it won't find the tones. Also, don't worry the Diamond knows how to play AAC files....
In case you need to know how to change the tones: Main tabs > Settings tab > Advanced > Notifications.
Lets see some more tones from elsewhere......
Enjoy!!
Fingers crossed this attachment works!! Download here:View attachment Nokia_N81_Original_Ringtones.zip

THey are great mate- I love the variety.
Here's my contribution (23 MB) - this file includes the original Diamond ringtones for those who like them as well as a bunch of others I got (mainly from the new MS WM portal- which were surprisingly quite good) and also all the ringtones converted off my useless E90 (some of which are also quite good considering it's a Nokia)

They really are like rocking horse poo at the moment aren't they

thanks all sharing ^__^
So you say you want a cup of Joe, or a MilkShake, or some other secret code word for a lil’ something in your PayPal account for your work, creativity and energy? Hey, this NEWBIE is all for it – hell, I’m glad to donate; but I be needed some help!
Where I’m at – right now, the Midwest USA, Omaha Nebraska to be specific. Where I’m at with my phone / HH device – it is a work issued HTC Touch Pro. I’ve had it about 3 months now, Alltel is my carrier and it came with a CRAP boring, dull grey Theme that can’t be changed, allegedly, when I’m using the Touch Flo3D.
Work offers several carriers; Verizon guys with the same phone have a much cooler “stock” theme – and oh sure, I can mess with the Today setting and get some goop red called Guava Bubbles to linger above and below in the bands, but mostly, it really sucks. Plus, the damn thing is slow – I hit my 4 code password and 1 out of 4 times the damn thing says I have the wrong PW – no I don’t you beyotch, I KNOW my password. Weather? I can UbitchInStein in Upper Mongolia but not the town I grew up in, Boulder Colorado, WTF is up with that?
I know just enough about technology to be dangerous – I can find the ROM versions and all that stuff, navigate config files a little, copy files using Active Sync and so on – and hey, my RingTones rock (http://sites.google.com/site/bcwsite4now/Home/filecabine) I can strip the hell out of a DVD, edit using Adobe Premier Elements and you might laugh your ass off if you know the movie scenes.
But for the life of me I can’t figure out this deal I downloaded called Manila Editor from Sascha Lange and Dimitry (you guys sound like Russian mob, please don’t kill me) - and now I’m reading this Manila Customizer - Customize Clocks, Icons, Sliders etc [1 Nov] New Version thread from Gramps or Grumps or the Gimp from Pulp Fiction (see Ringtone reference) above and it starts to look like I am getting close – Clocks, Icons, Sliders – hmm, that’s what I want, and really cool ones!!
So I DL and UZ a bunch of stuff from some thread and now I have some cool looking graphics in a bunch of folders on my PC that look like they work together in a TouchFlo 3D setting, but I have no friggin idea how to get them from my hard drive to my phone without brickin’ the damn phone; remember, work issue phone. {http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2891202#post2891202}
Plus, over at PPC Geeks or some other board, they were all hot on some TouchFlo 3D speeder upper program and steps with a new Stock Watcher Icon using the 3G network and a better Weather app; so I PM a dude over there about 45 days ago and he tells me, “yo, newbie, read a bunch and then PM me back.”
Dude, I have 3 kids, all under 6 and a wife who likes me to do dishes once in awhile, read a bunch of stuff on Google and THEN ask for help? No thanks, I’d rather pay your arse. So, the end of my story goes like this – who wants to help me and what is your price?
Can I make my own icons, sliders and clock graphics using PhotoShop or some other program? If so, what sizes should I aim for in each at what resolution?
How do I get all the cool **** on my PC now to my phone? Say I wanted to pick one of the themes, I think, like Panosha Shine 2.2 on my phone and ditch Mister Alltel BoreMeToFngTearsGrey?
What can I do to speed this ***** up? Add the Stock Application, and make the Weather App a little bit more relevant to my small Midwest World?
My dream phone, and your personal challenge: A faster HTC Touch Pro with a rocking U2 theme in black, red and grey or white that snags icons from the album All That You Can’t Leave Behind or How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb and a cool clock that uses the font from the album War circa 1982 – hey, I’m old. It will have this much rumored, never seen by me improved Weather App and this Stock Market app so I can watch my 401K tank to 187K 24/7.
If someone can make all that happen, Monster Size Milkshakes and Jumbo Coffee all around!
Thanx for reading my rant.
No PMs plz – email [email protected]
87 Views, not 1 response or Email?
Is there a better site for folks like me -- was the potential for milkshakes and joe offensive?
I thought it was funny; maybe it wasn't? And, no comments on the Pulp Fiction ringtones??
Someone help me with the nuances of a programmer's onlline community -- there is talent out here galore; maybe I'm just 'lookin' for love in all the wrong places' -- figure of speech only.
In the immortal words of Jim Rome, Newbie is out!
I think you should try NRG's Energy ROM. It's already customized with a slew of tweaks and additional software. In addition to that you can use Showaco's BBExtreme theme for TF3D2. It's gonna take SOME reading to learn about your device so you don't brick it...and if that's gonna be a problem then I'll tell ya like I told my dad.....just get an iPhone. They're already setup outta the box with very little understanding required
1) Flash HardSPL to your device. Only have to do this once.
2) Flash EnergyROM 04052009 version. Link is on 1st page of his thread. I always flash from the sd card...safer, easier, faster, more portable. Simply plug your device into computer with usb cable and select disk drive. Copy 'RAPHIMG.nbh' to the root of storage card. Make a backup of everything. Then:
Hold down the Volume Down key while u press and release the reset button. Follow directions on the screen. After the screen appears for you to tap and align the screen, Hard Reset (Hold Vol down + Center button, then press and release reset button)
3) Copy BBExtreme cab to your storage card and click it to install. Soft reset, and you're done.
I'm afraid others are just as busy as you. I have 5 week-old twins at home and I read these forums while holding a bottle in their mouths. It's highly unlikely that anyone is going to spend hours to customize your device for you, and then provide customer service for the things that don't work exactly as they should. It takes time to learn these devices, I've been at it for over 5 years and still consider myself a noob. Good luck

Don't flash any gsm rom to a cdma device (Alltel) you will brick it. you might want to try ppcgeeks for your phone http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=68
Thanks man, forgot Alltel was CDMA.
modding your phone takes a fair amount of reading and research. i understand that you're busy but theres not much other than that we can tell you. i started out http://blownfuze.org/ there and read pretty much the whole page before i even started. And even with just that website i wasnt satisfied.
spend some time reading that website, get an idea of what on there you like, and start from there. install a ROM (i suggest EnergyROM) and go from there. it takes a lot of reading before you know what you're doing. and dont ever assume you know how to fix something, its safer to look it up here than to try it. liek if you dont know how to install a ROM, theres a beginners guide. dont just try stuff. thats how you brick your phone.
you can change the stock theme i have an altell TP and i changed the TF3D theme a couple times- do a search for touch pro themes there was a thread with a bunch of them find one you like and you can load it with a program called Diamond TF3D Config- there are a lot of good free themes but probably not one just what you described
looks like you already found some themes i think they came in a zip when i did mine, put them on your phone not in a folder just the first menu then load with the program from above, just search and you will find that program
Installing a theme won't brick your phone, but it's a good idea to back everything up prior to messing with manila. Try out fuzeberry or onyx or any of the themes listed here or in the Diamond themes forum. Since it's a work phone, flashing roms may not be such a great idea. Dear lord, if you do, DO NOT FLASH ENERGY ROM!!!!! As mentioned above, it will brick your phone. Go over to geeks and try out Mighty Rom or Jughead rom or whatever catches your fancy.
You might look up giannis86 here. He's got a ton of really cool icons, and he's done some custom jobs for folks. Maybe he'll work 4 food. Anyway, I laughed my ass off.

Graphic size?
Resolution?
Best file format? JPG?
Do I need an up and down state, similar to a rollover on a web-nav button? (Ohhhh, the newbie knows rollover up-state -- maybe he's more than just a RingTone guy)
Thanks again!

Yeah, you can make your own icons. Like I said before, look up giannis86, and in his profile look up all the threads he started. Grab one of his icon packs, and look at the files with manila editor. You'll be able to figure out the correct sizes and resolutions.

This addon for photo shop will allow you to edit/save png files.
CFC GUI (you'll have to search on here for it). Will let you get the graphics files out of the manila files and also put them back in after editing.
As far as sizes, I usually just open one of the files up check the size and then open a new file and set the canvas that size. They are all different sizes depending on what icon your editing.

Newbie here-- I'll add my Congrats on the Twins.
Our twins turn 6 Thursday the 16th ; best 6 years of my life; just about to "graduate" from Kindergarten. Carson is our boy, Olivia the girl -- she won the "lose the first tooth" contest today.
My2 cents on twins -- get them sleeping and eating on the same schedule -- its easy after that!
Enjoy.
hey guys, I really don't like the keyclick sound that is Default for the Captivate. I don't want to turn it off, I would like to find/use a replacement.
Can anyone tell me how to replace this sound file? Also were is a good place to find replacements?
I can tell you how, but not where to find a replacement.
1) Grab a terminal emulator or Root Explorer (I prefer Root Explorer myself for this one).
2) Navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
3) If I'm correct in assuming that you mean the keyclick sound from browsing around menus and such in the phone then the file you want is "Effect_Tick.ogg"
4) Copy it to your sd card, and then to your computer and edit/replace it as you see fit. Just make sure it's the same audio length as the old one. Save it as an .ogg file or it won't work on the phone.
5) When putting it back onto the phone, make sure you make a BACKUP of the old one. Just rename the one that's already there with a ".bak" at the end. Then paste in your editing file.
6) Reboot and test it out.
Hope that works. I made that up off the top of my head cause I'm not about to try it out myself cause I turned the sound off in the settings. But it should work as that's the usual method of replacing any file on the phone. Good luck, let me know how it works out for you.
You are the man!!! That worked fantastic! I wasn't actually looking for the Effect_Tick, it was the TW_Touch sound that I wanted to replace, I found it in the folder by listening to them and figuring out which one it was.
THank you again, at least I know how to change something next time if needed
Wow, thank both of you. Never thought of changing the sound, but that would be hilarious to have a pew or pow sound. Think ofbeing a kid with two army men. Thanks guys.

Glad I could help. Also, FWIW, TW_Touch.ogg and Effect_Tick.ogg are the same sound. The only difference is the name, which actually makes TW_Touch a few bytes bigger.

Again, you're very welcome. That's actually my first tutorial on XDA. I'm glad it actually worked without me testing it!
can you link the sounds you replaced to?

Still trying to find some good ones. I am currently using the SIP.ogg sound found in the same folder as the others. Its more of a soft click sound. I am still looking for a really nice replacement though, so if anyone of you find one please share, as I will do the same.
You know the keyboard isn't making a click sound with Cog Rom. I wonder if its turned off somewhere in the ROM because I have keyboard clicks turned on but hear nothing.
I like to have regular dial tone for the dial key pad. Know how to fix this?
They are regular. The sound the same as every other phone I've used.
What do you really mean?
I used to have iphone 4 and the tone for each dial keypad little different sound

I would try and get them for you, but I haven't the slightest clue on how to convert the .caf file the iPhone uses to .ogg for Android. But looking around, there are some cool mods for dial tones out there. I found this one and now I want to do it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J4RfiTi08Q

I FOUND A WAY!!!!
If anyone can provide with me a copy of the iPhones dial tone sounds, I can format them for our Captivates. Based off of what I'm seeing from my iTouch, the directory layout should be /System/Library/Audio/UISounds. I need all the files that start with dtmf. There should be 12 files in total.
Edit: I did the Daft Punk mod to my phone and it works great! I'm attaching the zip with the .ogg files inside and already renamed so you can just drop them on the phone. Remember to back up the original!

HA. Wrong. These are in iPhone format and not for our phones. My zipfile is for our phones.
I was just linking to the sounds you were looking for.
Anyhoo for some reason my keys don't make any sounds when i press them, any idea why? Would love to replace the stock sounds with the daft punk ones.
edit: n/m fixed that, now to load those daft punk sounds
Beat me to the answer, it's a seperate setting in the Sounds Menu. But now you know that yourself. I'm probably going to make a tutorial thread for this elsewhere in the forums in case anybody else is interested
The sounds seem to be mixed up, they don't match the keys in the video, seems like he rearranged them after posting that zip file. Trying to sort them now but its a pita since mpc barely plays them.
I know what you mean. I didn't bother trying to put them in the right order. It's just fun trying to play the song.
And smeltn, I'm writing up my tutorial on how to change the dial tone sounds and whatnot now and I'm giving you credit for the idea. Cause if not for you, I wouldn't have even bothered to do any of this.

HAHA thanks. Its fun playing around with them now that we know what to do. I just can't wait to see other peoples sounds.
I've searched the threads and found nothing that contained these files anywhere, so I decided to Jailbreak my IPad and pull these files off of it. I mostly did this for the Lock/Unlock sounds because I personally think they sound a lot more crisp and louder than Androids Lock/Unlock sounds. Included are 63 system sounds all converted to Mp3 at 320 kbps. Ranging from alarms, sms tones, lock sounds, etc.
If you choose to want to change your unlock/lock noise, use Root Explorer. Goto /system/media/audio/ui. You'll see "Lock.ogg" and "Unlock.ogg", rename the extension to ".ogg.old" or whatever you prefer. Than put the Lock and Unlock Mp3 files in that same /system/media/audio/ui folder and just rename the file extension to .ogg. Immediately the files should work.
I hope at least one person finds this of use.
thanks I'm sure there are some people looking for these sounds. These sounds are the least annoying to hear over and over
does this include the keyboard touchtone sounds? if so, that is all I really want. that and maybe the sent message notification sound. thanks
EDIT: Going through the .zip now. I think the keyboard sounds may be Tink.mp3 and Tock.mp3. if so, how do I apply those to my phone? in system/media/audio/ui the keyboard sounds are this: KeypressDelete, KeypressReturn, KeypressSpacebar, and Keypress Standard. How will android know which of the two apple sounds to use for which of the keypresses? if that makes any sense lol
I followed the OP's exact directions for the lockscreen and things went haywire, it was playing my ringtone for when I unlocked the screen. May not work on the ROM I am on?

That's really odd. On all android devices and roms, that's where you'll find the lock and unlock sounds. I dunno, my best advice is just to make sure you put the right file in the folder. Best way to do that is just clicking the "lock.ogg" and "unlock.ogg" file in the /system/media/audio/ui folder and seeing what your music player plays. It should play the desired sound. If it plays your ringtone, than that's your issue.
Also try a reboot if you haven't. Sometimes the phone doesn't recognize the fact a new file in the folders, so check that out too

So I was checking out the keyboard for my IPad and all the noises it makes. It solely uses the "Tock" file. That's the only sound it makes for Delete, Return, Spacebar, and Standard. So I tried it out, and replaced all the noises, I hate to say, but it didn't work out too well. If you text REALLY slowly, yeah, it would work just fine. I personally text quick as hell, so it only played once every 3 letters. Kinda annoying, so I just switched it back down to normal.
Sucks, I really don't like the typewriter noise that comes stock. I'll mess with it tonight, and see if I can shorten the audio clip ever so slightly, and see if that's the reason why it wasn't playing so smoothly? I'll keep you posted
This is great

Same with me, even if I restore the original sounds it will give me no result no matter what I use. No sounds work; lock, unlock, camera, keyboard, click, none work, only one that works is the lowbattery sound and ringtones.
Have you checked your permissions for the folders and files? this might help, even though it did nothing for me.
Can anyone help me and Rene_ajax with this problem? :good:
I made a post/thread about this and all I got was no solution.
Working like a charm on my N10, thanks OP.
Thanks OP.
But look like Following MP3 have some problem to play.
sq_lock.mp3
sq_tock.mp3
Tink.mp3
Tock.mp3
Thnx
Was looking for this, thank you very much!

Sorry to revive an old thread, but this initially didn't work for me.
It took me a moment to realize that the lock and unlock sounds are not capitalized, which of course is seen as a different file in Linux/Android. If anyone going forward has issues with it not playing, this is the likeliest cause.
Linux is case sensitive. Look at how the previous .ogg file was written. The one you replace it with must match or the system will disregard it as the filename doesn't match.
