I have this alarm problem where even when i clicked on the box "Repeat Sound" it still only plays once.. does anybody know why?
i flashed my ROM to dutty V3.1

Also, I wanna know if I can add some more melodys
How can I do that????

if you want to use your own alarm tone just go to the following link and it tells you how to do it.
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/windows-mobile-faq/14552-how-make-your-own-ppc-alarm-sounds-free-tutorial.html
I suggest you just trim your own files on your computer, convert to WAV and put the file in the directory the forum told you to

sorry for double posts.. but i really need help with this... thanks!

ever tried klaxon alarm? works pretty good with every sound on your phone...
available for free in the accessories section ;-)

Helmi v 1.4 beta and Ringtones problem

Hi all,
I've searched all over the threads and can't find an answer to this problem:
I can't select a ring tone other than the default one and media player doesn't start. If i choose a different ring tone it says it's corrupted...
This happened after a few days being turned off...
I have both patches applied and no 3rd party app installed... The ringtones are in \windows\rings.
This problem also appear at the same time that psShut Xp stops working - when i click the icon on the tray nothing appears...
This problem already appeared one time and i had to hard reset to resolve it, so if anyone has a solution other that this please tell me
there is post on this!!.
this being the 3rd one.
put tone in windows or ram disk.no folder needed just drop it in..
the search is not good.dose not matter what you type in search.
you end up with more or less the same..but not what your looking for.
edit below for KERIO
the programs are on here.why not try the search of something you know is there?.
as most ov what you said is dissing me is stead ov helping ppl
if what i said as upset you.SORRY
i find what am look for(take about 2days).but this is about helping the 1st post user.

http://www.ppcgeeks.com
Not all the people are "whatever" like you.
Search is working well, but you need to know what are u looking for: OR USE GOOGLE with site:xda-developers.com
Let me rephrase myself.
I get a message about the ringtone beeing corrupted, and media player doesn't work and neither doest psshutxp.
I also said that it works fine after a hard reset but doesn't work after a while, and no 3rd party apps were installed...

Got the ****, noi Window Media player and WMA Ringtones corrupted, but then open them in explorer everything ok, found on the web about registry Rings key and Directory name dissapearing, but i checked mine and everything in the place. Also some people clkaim that it's Profiles software bug, So any ideas what is a problem?

Fixed by re-flashing the phone with Baniaczek's ROM. If only it would now sync, and use TOMTOM....

Does Any One Know How To Change The Alarm Tone To One In The Music Directory?

I have been trying to copy, paste and work out where to put files so that they can play as an alarm tone. As of yet i have not worked it out, if there is anyone who knows please tell me.
And dont say read the manual because its not in there!
Thanks,
Kapa
You can't. You have to use a third party alarms program to use an MP3 as an alarm. I used PocketMax AlarmToday and it worked pretty well.
The stock alarms from HTC Home only can use WAV files, and they must be in the Windows directory.
Otherwise, yes you need to use a 3rd party alarm app.

text message custom tones?

hey all~
so this is my first post here, hope this is in the right thread (if not i apologize and ask the admins to plz move it?)
anyhows, i has a tytn2 (at&t tilt of course) its all upto date and all. i was wondering....i know i can set custom ring tones for contacts for when they call, is there any way (free way) to set custom tones for when somebody texts?
i had my old phone (motorolla rokr z6) set to do that and would like to have my new phone set that way too but i can't find how to or if its even possible anywhere....
thanks all

Ok, I think I got two questions out of that test. J/K
1. Edit: Sorry about that. I didn't read properly.
2. To assign notification sounds. Start>Settings>Personal>Sounds&Notifications>Notifications. Open the Event: drop down, find the event, Open the Ring tone: select the sound, turn on Play sound, finished.
Notification sounds reside in the \Windows\ root folder of the device. I like to put ring tones into the \Windows\Rings\ folder. They work in other folders but I find the Rings folder neater than the root for example and thats what the Rings folder is meant for anyway.
Hope that works for you.
U cant assign different ringtones for text messages to contacts. For that u will probably need some 3rd party application.
hey all~
hurm, okay well if i can't then does anyone know of any 3rd party app that can do it? i know pcm can NOT do it for text's (but they can for calls) . . .
thanks for the help guys and gals

try mortring. you can personalize rings for calls and sms according to individual or category.
although it's been slightly buggy since i upgraded to 6.1, it still does the job well enough.
somynex~
thanks ill google it right now
~j
Try photo contacts. You can assign text tones to individuals on it
hey all~
so igrabed mortringand installedit buthad no luck with it working :-( so i guess ill look into that other suggested program....
like i said it's not a big deal, just something i would likes (it shouldn't surprise anyone as my screen name should imply i'm a linux guy [ubuntu is a linux distro.] and i love everythiing tweaked as much as possible lol)
~j
sorry to hear that mortring didn't work. in WM6 and before it seems to intercept the call and then change the ring.
But in WM6.1 it seems to have to change the ringtone for each contact/category according to the ring i set it to, which can take a long time. the first time after i set the rings, thought my phone froze up. but actually it was just taking its time setting the rings for each contact (and takes a long time when one has a lot of contacts/categories).
anyway after the first couple days of freezes, it seems to work fine now and hasn't froze up on me since.
somynex~
maybe i'll give it another go then....i tried with my brothers contact info. changed his txt tone then had him txt me....maybe i needed to let it sit for longer to 'finish the change' . . .
thanks for the extra info

No problem mate.
Here's a post of mine from almost 4 years ago that you can use with Mortring (free) to make custom notifications for your contacts.
Okay I figured out how to create a custom notification/ringer.
1: go to http://public.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php
And type in what you'd like for the notification or ring to say and then
download it after picking a voice. (keep in mind sometimes you have to purposely
misspell certain word to get them to be pronounced correctly. For example for DJ
I had to spell it as d j).
2: rename that file you downloaded into something you'd like.
3: move that .wav file to your devices /windows directory.
4: go to start - settings - sounds & notifications - notifications (select the
event you'd like to change the ring for and select the respectable audio file).
If using Mortring in step 4 assign that .wav for your contact(s).
dj~
wow thanks, from 4 years ago...kewl that u looked it up fo rme i appreciate it and will be off to create
~j
Of course.. then there's always Electricpocket Ringo. It lets u assign ringtones and sms tones individually, or to groups. The best I've used so far.

Free? I tried Ringo over a year ago and it slowed down my phone a lot.
hey all~
i got mortRing working! seems pretty good, works for sure. one thing though...it seems that everytime i get a text from someone whos got a personalized tone, that wmp opens to try to play the wav file (and go figure, wav=windows audio video...wmp says it can't play wavs lol)
i think i may have fixedn it with a registry tweak, have to wait till someone with a custom tone texts me back lol
~j
hey all~
ok so this question is probably for those who have or have used mortRing....everytime a custom notification comes my media player opens :s
i went in the registry and undid the default wmp handling of wav files (as the ringtones...err text tones lol that mortRing recognizes are wav's) but then it opened a dialouge saying it didn't know how to handle the wav file (nvm it played lol) ii changed the default to mort player but it still opens whenever one of the custom contacts text me....at least mort closes quicker then wmp...but still would be nice to get it to stop...
so any ideas? a registry hack (i'm comforatable doing that, even though im a linux guy i work on peoples win-slows computers....a LOT) anything?
thanks
~j
I have an older version of Mortring that doesn't have that problem.
DJ~
do you happen to know what version number you have? thanks

Could you zip up all the default XPERIA ringtones for me?

hey guys.
Just a simple request to those who you have the time to do so.
I recently installed Gtrab's W4X WM6.5 Cooked Rom but didn't realise it had a lot of the ringtones included with the xperia missing.
I've searched the forums and found the odd file containing ringtones taken from handsets but they are different tones.
Could you please copy and zip all the ringtones from the Windows folder from a default Xperia rom and upload it to the internet for me please
Cheers,
Hyped
I need them too. can somebody please post them?
Thank you
Press me softly....
Thank you for your help, however, unfortunately, these are not the ringtones I need.
I'm not sure where they're saved but there are some ringtones called like Alarm1, Alarm2, Alarm3 and such. And it's in this location I need the ringtones. I think they are scattered throughout the Windows folder admist the system files.
So, could you possible collect and zip these please

Big thanks, but, now, the next step...I think, we need to open the registry somehow, to insert the ring tone we really crave for it, and I think it must be a post somewhere, but, where....

Extract the rar file on your computer, connect device via active sync, once syncing click "explore" and your my documents folder should be visible, move the extracted mp3 ringtones to this folder. Hope that helps
Thx
But does anybody have also the ringtones for sms ?
There is one ringtone, i really miss on the ROM´s, but i do not remember the name
Its gonna be difficult if you don't have the name. I used dreamland on the stock rom.

I flashed energy rom so i don't have the stock ones at hand
There is a thread or two around here somewhere with a link to all the OEM ringtones / sounds etc. I'm not sure what it was titled though.
It was a rar file and nearly 38mB in size.
:edit Found it. I used the top secret 'Search' button. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=526164
