On my old ETEN M600 (RIP) I had a phone pad app/skin that gave me big buttons and when a dial button was pressed the phone vibrated for a 1/4 of a second. It was great physical feedback to feel that little blip when a button was pressed and I believe it allowed me to dial numbers quicker. Anyone know of a app that enables this for the Tilt/Kaiser?
And yes I did a search for this before I posted a new thread.
Thanks

How to set up one button press on/off with device and screen locked
Also for those that are interested. I have AE Button Plus, Ilauncher and DeviceLock by Matt Armstrong installed on my Tilt. The combination of these programs allow me to program the left softkey to turn off the Tilt. Matt's Devicelock auto locks the phone and prevents any other buttons to be pressed. When I want to use the phone I can press the left hard key that corresponds with the left soft key and that turns on the phone and unlocks it with one button push. This set up gives me one button off/on and all other keys and the screen is locked from accidental button pushes. Now I just wished that Devicelock would shut off the phone after 10 seconds if not unlocked. Right now my phone is in my pocket and if I accidentally push any button other then the left hard key my screen will turn on in a locked state and time out only after 1 minute if no other buttons are pressed. I would like it to turn back off faster.
BTW Thanks Matt
Not an app but it can be done with registry tweaking:
[It involves modifying registry keys so beware].
Navigate to HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\
In here there are a bunch of keys named Dtmf which represent all the keypad keys [0-9, #, *]
Rename Standard DWORD parameter Sound to Sound1
Create new String Parameter Sound
Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.
Save and exit, test it, then go back and do the same for all your keys, sorted.
A .cab for this?
Is there a .cab floating around for these reg settings?
It would be a great contribution to the community if someone could whip up a cab to make these reg changes ;-)
Wow, now that was usefull. I had installed some small prog to do the same, but it didn't work great. It wouldn't vibrate unless you pressed for a more than 250 ms. This mod vibrates immediately! Thanks!
someone should tell Kaisertweaks that that needs to go in
Here you go, working great on the TyTN II
That's what I'm talking about

Thanks Gizmo!
I love this place. Where would WinMo be without xda-developers???
Any chance you could upload the .cab directly instead of zipped? For some reason it won't extract on my tilt and I can't get to a PC tonight.
Thanks again.
Sure thing, here you go
Installed and it is working great. This is really a great tweak!
aren't dtmf tones what are used for things like voicemail and such? like "press 7 to delete" it recognizes the sound? does this affect that at all?
I don't think this tweak has any effect on dtmf tones. I just tried my VM and everything worked as usual.
strange...i installed this on my tilt (htc rom) and when i touched a button there was no vibrate, until about 5 seconds later, it was delayed i guess, and after that i never felt another vibrate, even after a few resets.
bump.
would like to get this working.
Will this make it beep and vibrate or just vibrate? It would be cool it it could do both at once!. Also, maybe post cab to revert back to just the sound in case anyone wants to change it back?
Mikeeey,
Try holding the number down a little longer. If you just touch it, it will display the number but not vibrate.. I had the same trouble also.
I do appreciate the afford, but shouldnt it just work when it notices a keypress, not a long keypress.
You have to hold it for a little time. Thats how it works

That's how the cab file works. But when I did the registry edits as listed in the 2nd post, then it is an immediate vibrate. I used to use the cab file version. I removed that and went with the direct reg edits. Now it vibrates immediately.

thanks for pointing that out dalewinterstein, it works for me now.
i did the manual reg edit to try and make it respond faster but it doesnt, actually the keys lighting up after being pressed dont respond fast enough to my presses, does this happen for anyone else? i mean if i hold it just a bit longer it will light up and vibrate but im normally faster than that.
Hi,
I deactivated the HTC dialer so I can use S2U2... Now I have the problem that I cannot change the speaker volume during a call with the side-keys (e.g. if I press the volume down key it opens the standard system volume application by HTC)
So there might be 2 solutions:
1st: Is there a way to deactivate the HTC sound GUI and change it back to the windows built in volume changer?
2nd: Is there a tool / little program to change the volume of the speaker during a phone call?
Thanks for your help / solutions...
ageye
doesnt anyone have a clue?
how do you others change the volume during a call if you use standard wm6 dialer and not the one from htc?
Woohoooo!
Solved it - so if anyone is interested in the solution:

Thanks for posting this... however that service doesn't seem to exist.
My guess would be that HTC have changed things in a recent update and that would explain why the Volume Control settings in Diamond Tweak don't work either - Tried in Duttys Diamond 1.8 and SwiftBL 7.0
Does anyone know any other way to disable the HTC volume control, short of cooking a new ROM without it?
Solved!

Hello,
I've a problem with my Diamond, the soft button for controling the volume have change of function. Now the work as scroll wheel.
First of all I think it's an application that change the button affectation. Not the good way.
So I try to lauch the volume manager manualy and it didn't appear.
I don't know if a reg key was the point of interest for this. But haven't found yet where is the problem. If someone have already encounter the problem.
Thanks
Partial Found:
It's S2U2 that change the softkey mapping and if sound control is disabled in this application, it's completly disabled.
If someone can send me what have been change, where and the original value for the Diamond, he'll be the "man of the day"
Thanks you
Quite randomly, the start, OK, and application shortcut buttons on my Orange tytn ii have stopped working properly.
In ScummVM, I can use them as normal, they're not DEAD, but they don't do what they should. The start button doesn't open the start menu, the ok button does nothing, and the application shortcuts seem to think they're the softkeys...
Yet the softkeys do as well.
I suspect scummvm of having something to do with it, it only started after I remapped a key I was using in that.
So, does anyone know of this problem?
If not, do you think it's likely that ScummVM is changing registry entries or something to prevent windows from intercepting the keys then changing them back on exit, and not done it for some reason?
It's got to be as easy as changing some registry keys, I just don't know which ones and what to.
Thanks in advance
Hmm, after re-setting all the buttons in the "Buttons" control panel they're working again. I'll just put this down to general windows annoyances.
I know this is probably the dumbest question ever, but I had WM 6.1 and could change the volume by simply pressing the little volume icon on the top bar..now I upgraded my phone with a rom to WM 6.5 and whenever i click that icon it just goes to notifications and theres nowhere to change the volume profile! and I seriously googled the issue like nobodys business, I don't know if this is normal for 6.5 or what! the only way i can change the volume profile is using touchflo, going to settings etc. and that sometimes takes way too long when i want a quick shortcut to change the volume asap! and if i don't want to use touchflo, theres no way to change it!
so, basically, if any of you kind people can let me know...is it normal first off for WM6.5 to not let you click the volume icon on the top start menu?
and if it is a bug..do you know how i could fix it? is it possibly a rom bug? should i flash a new rom?

try it with the HTC equalizer or SRS WOW HD to fix

Here's a nice and handy volume changing tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395695
You can assign it to one of the hardware buttons (I personally have it assigned to the top voice command button as I don't use voice dialling) and it makes changing volume easier than ever.
