Doug,
Thanks a bunch for this tip! I was wondering the other day if it was possible to silence that annoying sound. Much appreciated!
Thanks.

Didn't someone make a thread... and a MOD made it a STICKY just for ATT TILT NEWBIES? I know pressing a search button and typing a key word into a box is difficult, but there is also a sticky just FOR YOU.
I think you should have to take some type of IQ test before having a TILT.
(This is actually more of a universal question, but...) How do I disable the annoying ass AT&T animation at startup?
You need a mobile registry editor to do this:
go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation
just set the "enabled" value to 0 and that will get rid of THE most annoying startup animation/sound ever (thanks to myself)

May not be my place...
Some of you are a bit harsh. This is a forum and it is here for a purpose; supposedly for seeking help.
Thanks Doug - I didn't know about that tweak either.
For those who use KaiserTweak you can add this to your XML file instead of using a registry editor:
<tweak>
<title>ATT Startup Animation</title>
<value disabled="disabled" advised="advised" value="0">Disabled</value>
<value default="default" value="1">Enabled</value>
<key>HKLM\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\Enabled</key>
<description>Enable or disable the ATT startup animation.</description>

Bluetooth Volume?

My bluetooth volume is really low on the headset, anyone else have this problem? Im using the Jawbone bluetooth headset on Dutty's v3 rom on my att tilt. Ive tried different roms, adjusting the volume to highest on the phone and the headset but callers are still hard to hear. Ive used the same bluetooth headset on my previous 8525 with no problems. My headset was even too loud when on high with the 8525. Any advice would be great because i do all my talking via bluetooth with my phone.

Yes, everyone has this problem - although I heard something about AT&T's latest ROM having some fix for the BT, but wasn't sure exactly what it fixed...

FIX?
Well if the problem was fixed either buy a chief here or htc or whomever, there should be a cab file floating around with the fix. thats what im hoping for or maybe a registry edit to help fix the problem. Ive read many threads on how the bluetooth volume suck for cars as well. Maybe if theres a fix for that, the same fix should fix my problem and many other's.

Yeah as a matter of fact you can take this into your own hands. The latest AT&T ROM has a file called "AudioPara4-CWS_V6.csv" which I cooked into my new ROM (releasing tomorrow morning) as well. The thing is you don't need to "COOK" it at all. And it is simply a comma delimited spreadsheet. I have attached it so you can download it. Simply edit it as necessary for your headset, drop it in \Windows and add the following registry key to your device:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]
"AcousticFile"="\Windows\AudioPara4-CWS_V6.csv"

Drop and Go?
So i just drop the unzip file u provided into my documents and edit the registry myself as u described? Sounds easy enough if thats all it takes. Whats the name of the rom u are releasing? Ill have to give it a try.

?
DARN! When i downloaded the file on my tilt and tried to open it i get the usual zip error of cant find the archive file crap. Guess ill have to wait to get home from work to try it on my computer.

If you're using File Explorer select "Show All Files"...sorry I zipped it directly from my ROM and it has the hidden and system attributes set. Even on a Windows machine you will need to enable hidden files AND Protected OS files to be able to see it. And put it in \Windows.

Nope
Even after i check show all files on file explorer, then click on the zip file, get the same zip error when i try to open it.

EDIT> See next post.

Any chance of making this a .cab?
Im having trouble trying to follow your instructions. Every time I unzip it, I can't seem to find it. Am I missing something?

Exactly, glad im not the only one that cant unzip this file. sounds like we just need to place a couple files in my documents then edit the reg. This might sound dumb but can u just upload the files a la carte that need to go to the my documents folder instead of making it a zip file? A cab that installs by putting these files and edits the reg would be too good to be true. Anyone up for the challenge?

Make sure you have hidden system files unchecked in Windows?
If you using Vista go to tools in any folder. Click on folder options.
go the view tab.
uncheck "hide protected operating system files"
XP should work the same way as well. This solved it for me.

Adding Registry Key
Hey I was just wondering if I did this right...or am I totally off?

Yes, you are totally off as AcousticFile is a String, not key.
Try the Cab I attached.
Anyone found this key w/ the cvs file really help anything as I don't see any problem w/ the current BT so far???

Thanks for the .cab
I was wondering if you could provide me with a screen show of what it should look like so I will know for future reference.
Thanks,
EDIT: Am I getting closer?

Whats this cab do?
Thanks for the cab file but whats it supposed to do? I installed the cab to the device then soft reset the phone. I then talked via bluetooth headset for 20 minutes after reset and the low volume was still there. Almost seemed the cab did nothing more then take up 16kb of memory on the phone. Didn't address the low volume problem in the bluetooth headset. It must be something with the phone because i know this headset gets very loud becuase ive used it on several devices and all being consistant except the tilt. Any other suggetions to fix this problem anyone?

you can try this:
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway
Tell me what yours say for the "SpkVolume" setting ??
also...
I got this tip from somewhere before ... see if this help you ... it's for the BT handset mic volume ... but within those keys ... there should be one for the speaker volume as well ( you have to search for YOUR device ... as everyone's is different ):
quote:
""
Navigate to
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Device
Under this you would find several keys. Each key represents a device you are paired with. In my case I have only 2 keys since my PDA is paired only with 2 devices (my notebook, and my handsfree) Then navigate to the handsfree key, so mine reads like this.
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Device\000c55401c45\Services\0000111e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb
You would find a dword called name, verify that the value corresponds Hands Free
Change the channel to 5 (my default was 2) 5 seems to work better with Motorolla H500.""
goodluck

Bump for some more info.

If you search the forum you will find a few posts on this subject. I have been searching through them just about every day and I have had no luck in finding an answer. Seems editing the registry doesnt help and the BT fix cab was released by HTC to fix bluetooth headsets dropping calls. I have tried the fix and I have tried using Jetware, I have not tried the registry fixes because many others have tried and said it doesnt work. Ive been through 4 headsets and non have good volume. I am still waiting on someone to find a working solution or a reasonably priced headset (below $100 thats non-stereo) that works. I think you may be stuck for a while like so many others....

Man, that sucks. I never get dropped calls on from using bluetooth, only when the phone drops the calls from ****ty att service. Guess thats why the cab didnt help out with increased volume. i did tons of searching beforestarting this thread and like u found nothing so i decided to post and see what happens. Quentin stated above he fixed the problem in his latest rom released today, 1/14/08, so i guess ima have to try his rom out to see if it helps. i really dont want to leave dutty's 1.1 rom cus of opera 8.65 and his great features cooked in. i love how dutty has the battery status under htc home with the exact percentage of battery life. anyone have a cab for that feature dutty cooks into his roms? thanks!

U don't have to limit what rom to use to have this so called BT volume fix (which I am not sure if it really working or not), just use the cab I package above.
For that battery status today plugin, you can find it here too: http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_BatteryStatus_XDA_Neo_WM5_iM_cs.htm
edit: I just noticed you are using Dutty's 1.1 rom. U can try my rom here which based on his 1.1 rom but w/ a few enhancement: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357490

Registry Hacks

I saw a thread over on the Mogul forum that had a huge list of reg edits for the mogul, all in one spot. I saw a nice edit I tried doing on my Tilt but the path wasn't there - it was to adjust the vibrate level. My vibrate is so loud when I'm in a meeting everyone looks over when it starts, it's louder than my wifes vibrator - lol
Anyways, if anyone knows where the edit for adjusting vibrate level is in the Kaiser registry can you let me know. I did a search but came up empty. I have the Kaiser tweak, but didn't see that on there.
Maybe this can be a thread where everyone posts their favorite reg edit.

No one???????????????????

take it easy

3 hours and 18 minutes.
Give people a chance.
It's a big and busy world - people are doing things.
Someone will have an answer eventually - maybe not a solution . . .

I agree. But maby if you change the topic to something relevant to the question you could get you(our) answer.

In order to answer this I think we need more details.
Tell me more about your wifes vibrator

TomTom 7.450.9028 - POI Warning Sounds

Hi All....
I've got this problem with TomTom.. it's not a huge issue, but it's kinda annoying... I've searched the forum and web, and haven't been able to find any postings on this "bug"?....
When I go to "Manage POI", I can set a warning sound (I use this for speed and redlight cameras) and it works... but whenever I exit and restart TomTom again, it resets back to the default warning sound.. ie, the first warning sound out of all the available selections..
Does anyone know if there's a fix?
I'm currently on TomTom 7.450.9028...
thanks!

have the same issue, i hope theres a solution

Try shortening the file names of the sound files. I had a similar problem with voice file names and that fixed it.
Let us know how you get on.

thanks steveianson... but the sound files aren't actually "custom" files.. they're the ones that come with the TomTom software itself.. there's a series of them and i'm only selecting from those... weeeird....

Because Jeroen........ Before I posted, I searched and searched and searched!
I actually did see that thread you're pointing me to... I even downloaded and tried the newer version of Tom Tom that's linked in the thread and I couldnt get it to work with my existing maps.
(to use that new version, I'd somehow need to reactivate maps to be able to use it?).
As far as I can see, the thread STARTS off talking about the same version of TomTom I use, but within a few posts, it's gone off topic and it is now about the newer version!
Hence, the reason I started a new thread...

I have had the same problem and it has nothing to do with the thread you pointed us to. Also, this problem has been around for a while (at least the last 2 or 3 versions of TomTom 7). I have looked everywhere but cannot find a fix for it. Using ogg files for the warnings is just too cumbersome.
Anyone have a solution?
Thanks.

Contacts And Ringtones

This may be a silly question or simple fix, but is there a way to set ringtones up by catagory instead of assigning them all individually?
If a post or thread about this has already been made I apologize in advance. I was trying the search and didn't get far

also note, I have used a tone manager, but it doesn't seem to work, keeps telling me the cab can't be opened.
