Hi,
Ive just recently got this phone from my brother, and i am adding videos etc to it successfully.
I want a good alarm tone. I have converted an MP3. file to .wav . I then added it into the windows folder. I click the main clock, click the little bell, and open the drop down list for alarm tone.
As soon as i click the tone i added to the phone, it automatically switches back to the default tone.
How do i get my normal tone, because the other ones just wont wake me up.
cheers
Have attached GAlarm it's not the newest version as it's now a pay for app, but it's far more reliable than the Windows Alarm and also very easy to set up.
Hi thanks. How do i install this?
Sorry, kinda new to things like this. I havnt bought the phone off my brother yet, so dont want to mess anything up by installing it wrong.
Help is appreciated

Unzip it on computer you will find a .cab place onto phone via async or cardreader, then with File Explorer on phone find the .cab click on it, install to device memory, in start menu will be GAlarm click it, it will promp restart, restart phone.
Now you can set up alarm
Thanks
I unzipped it to pc. opened the file, and there is another zip folder. Do i just unzip that again, drag the 1 cab file across through async, and it will install?
EDIT: Sorry for repost.
There isnt a .cab file in there when i have extracted the 2nd zip.
There is just a load of windows files ending in .152 etc
Also an xml file. Is this what you mean?

The second file is a .cab it's just that it's a compressed file so shows up as same looking, the file you extracted from original .zip do not unzip it place on phone and follow above directions

Yes yes im very stupid. I just saw it as another zip file. Looked at windows bar @ bottom and it said GAlarm.cab i was like...... .cab .
Installing it now. Shall tell you if it works Thanks
Update: Going through installation process now. Said it may not function properly due to it being made for a previous version of windows mobile. Carried on anyway. Loaded up app and forced restart. Booted it up and got another error. Booted it up for 3rd time and created my first alarm .
P.S Is there anyway of getting just my alarm on the main screen, without the added buttons? (Contacts, ringtones) etc.
Sorry for spam.
All done and added.
All i can say is thank you very much. Youve been a great help to me and im sure to come back when ive bought the phone, and feel more confident with installing new programs.
thanks

I am ignorant when it comes to tech.
I have a Tilt and i'm trying to install HTC home plug in on it. I download it and then put it on the tilt. I then try to install once its on the phone and i go to file explorer and look it up. I then click on the icons and nothing happens. I click on the setup xml file and it freezes up.
Is there anybody who can help me, i'm really wanting to put this on my phone.

Looks like you've extracted the CAB file.
You just have to copy the CAB file to your device and click it to install.
I tried again later by copying every file from what i downloaded for the plug in to on my computer and none of the programs wanted to install. I had no problem installing kaiser tweaks but this is just really irritating me. I know this may be a noob question but does the cab file look like?
no i dont think you quite understand there buddy. The file you downloaded that looks like a .zip file is actually a cab what you need to do is transfer the whole "zip" file over to your phone and open it in file explorer
It doesn't download as a zip, it downloads on to my computer as a bunch of seperate files. I put it into a zip file and then put it on my tilt. I'm sorry if i seem like i'm stupid, i'm just trying figure out how to do this. I downloaded from
http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=news&id=4618
is this a bad site to download from. If so please tell me of some other one.
just put that file into ur phone nd set it up thats it. dont zip or unzip it. you can tell if its a cab file if it has all these different files in there. or if it has ".cab" at the end of it (no quotes). the ".cab" file will look exactly like a zip file (it will have the same icon).
Thanks for the help!!!! Much appreciated
I've had my at&t tilt for almost a year now and I've been using the default theme.
Today I saw some TouchFlo themes and they look so sweet and I've been trying to get it on my phone all day.
First off, I completely suck at any programming so this is probably why I need help
I downloaded the file and extracted it to my phone, now I don't exactly know how to install it on my phone. There's a setup that when i click on it, it shows a bunch of code things for example: - <wap-provisioningdoc> - <characteristic type="Install"> are the first two lines and they go on for so long.
I don't know if i need to put any other software on my phone that will read that setup differently, or I'm suppose to do something else?
Please help, and thank you for your time.
Pictures is what I have, and what I'm trying to get:
Bump ^
do you have TouchFlo Manilla 2D installed on your device ?????????
If not you need it to run the manilla themes you have pictured.
before you ask where to find it..................the answer is use SEARCH.
Or just look at the sticky at the top of this forum
I downloaded it from this link:
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mkxonf7smhx
first I put it on my computer, then hooked up my phone to my computer and copied it to it. Not sure if it's supposed to go somewhere specific, I just put it under my documents.
here's a picture of what the folder looks like if it's correct
So basically from what I've been reading is how do I actually Install it on my phone, I copied the downloaded .zip onto my phone which contains a Setup, but that Setup seems to be doing nothing. I think I'm missing something else needed to install it.
by any chance is it a ".cab" format?
if so, DO NOT open with winzip.
just copy to phone and click it to install.
EDIT: yeah it a .cab
hmm, I used winRAR to extract the files i downloaded onto my computer first, then I copied them over to my phone.
Should I not extract it at all and just put it straight to my phone? and also, I've been reading a lot about .cab files, and nothing is saying it's .cab...lol i'm just completely lost
oh lawlz, i think i figured it out.
Ya i was extracting it before,
this time i copied the file directly
to my phone and i can install it
Please correct me if I am mistaken here. But, I think that AT&T took out the MP3 Trimmer program on the Fuze because I can't find it anywhere on mine. Does anyone have this on theirs? Where can I download this program and how can I install this? Thanks!

Just copy it to your phone and run it. (Double-click in File Explorer) Once it's installed, it will show up in your programs group.
Which folder do I have to put it in. Does it have to be a specific folder? Thanks again.

No, you can put the cab file anywhere. When you run it, it will install the program in the correct place.
I ran the setup xml file via opera using the file explorer on the phone and nothing is happening. Am I doing something wrong here?

Don't extract CAB's content by WinRAR or similar. Just copy the CAB file to your phone and run it from File Explorer on your mobile.

i think you will just need to unzip the files in to the windows directory and then soft reset
the manila's too?

OR you could just copy the files in the windows directory like 80% of the tf3d themes out there. Do you realize what it takes to make a .tsk or a .cab
@kd8dns..i was just trying to make it easier for those who dont know how to copy the files in the windows directory..your right i dont know what it takes to make a cab but i also wasnt asking you to make it..im sure their are some people who dont mind making a cab for it and helping some of these people who dont know how to copy the files..so sorry if i offended you

yes. you have to over write the old manila files
So, I don't know if I did this right. but it sorta worked I just think I'm missing stuff. I placed the glassflo.zip file in a file I made on my data card called theme. then I renamed the glassflo.zip file to glassflo.theme , then I went into touchflo 3d config set the path and installed. seems to be working, but my question now is what do I do with the rest of the manila files that were the second download from the link I posted above. You see, I unzipped them to the windows folder, which I think was a mistake. but I'm not sure. this is where I get lost. I'm sure they do something or why would they be there right. Thanks for any help. I really appreciate those of you with more experience with this stuff, taking the time to help us newbies out. also will this work better in the windows file instead of my sd card?
Rather than opening up a thread, it would've just been better to post in that thread for more exposure.
Thread closed.
i want to change Effect_tick.ogg in the /system/media/audio/ui
i try to overwrite it or delete it or movie it and im denied even in su mode.
how can i take a ogg of the same name from my sdcard or computer and switch this sucker? this is the sound file for the the screen selection setting and i want to change it.
possible? how? adb push/pull? other than adb?
Your best bet would probably be to unzip your current ROM, throw it in there, zip and sign, and flash. I don't think little files like that can be over-written.

trying that now. i would have to resign and stuff right? i never done that hmmm
okay i unzipped the rom, took MY effect_tick.ogg and threw it in the unzipped rom, rezipped and signed and the error i got while updating is WRONG DIGEST and it named the system path to my effect_tick.ogg i tried putting in... hmmm im asking cyanogen i first wanted to to it on his ROM. i do realize this is a sound and path not exclusive to his ROMs but its worth a shot thanks for the help
http://androidcommunity.com/forums/...-selection-sound-or-any-other-ui-sound-17949/
That should do it. If you have any good sound files to use as a replacement, can you please upload em so I can take a listen? or maybe suggest where I may acquire some myself possibly?
