Anyone know how to get the menu navigation "Click" sound back on WM6?
Back on the Cingular WM5 ROM when you would click the start menu, hit the windows button, or click any menu item there would be a select "click" sound that would play.
Now that I have upgraded to WM6 AT&T ROM the sound in gone.
I'm betting it is either the sound file is not there or there is aregistry entry that needs modified, but I'm having no louck finding it.
Thanks.
man, i was sooo happy that this annoying sound is gone!!
i am sorry, but i have no idea where to find it and will definetly NOT search for it.
try settings, sounds, enable for screen taps.
Yeah, I miss the click too. Not sure where to insert it into the registry. For sure it's not screen taps.
It is not the screen taps. This is a different sound trigger. It only played when you seleced a menu item.
no its not screen taps but hardware buttons..
It is neither of thoes. I know for sure. I briefly went back to WM5 after I had WM6 on the phone and the sounds returned. I checked and neither hardware buttons nor screen taps were activated on the WM5 version and the sounds played.
This is nothing that can be changed in a menu. It is either in the OS itself, an add-on, or in the registry.
yes there is a small fix file for that... i got it from an old update for my universal a long time ago. thats why you'll notice there is a 'fix' for this noted in palms upgrade enhancments...

Worked great. Exactly what I was looking for. I knew it was a missing registry entry. Thanks!

thanks for the reply
so I installed this and some of my other system sounds don't work right. Like when I normally get a question dialog or warning dialog the alarm2.wav would play. Now, I get the default.wav sound. I even checked under HKCU/controlpanel/notifications/default is set to alarm2.wav
any ideas on why this install caused this effect?
Basically it looks like the only thing modified was adding MenuPop, MenuSel, & OpenProg to the hklm\snd\event\.scheme\.allsounds, is that correct?
can someone export hklm\snd\ so I can compare?
How to uninstall it??
This cab file has messed up just little too much on my treo. My iLauncher task manager doesnt show up right, and programs that are installed on storage card, their icons doesnt load in start menu after I installed this cab file. I want to uninstall this cab file now. Can someone post how to do it??
Yeah, how do I uninstall for the WM6 menu sound fix? Not that I don't like the sound.
i dont think you can uninstall it. the file works perfect on my treo750!
I'm annoyed by the sounds and also want to turn them off, so...
bump!
Help!
How can I uninstall the fix_sound?
hi everybody, i don't like more the sount events for mi wm6, how can i uninstall the fix?
Thanks,
Walter Z.
I tried this and it still doesn't fix the menu sounds for my Axim x51v with Windows Mobile 6.1. I really miss the feedback the gentle clicks and bleeps provided - anyone know how to get this working? I'm guessing the fix doesn't extend to 6.1, only 6.
Also, since many of you posted seemingly confused about what the original question was referring, this is not the screen taps which IMO are extremely annoying and make an obtrusive "TAP" sound every single time your stylus touches the screen. It is also nothing that the sound events control panel has any option for either.
Instead, it is simply a quiet little sound when you tap the Start Menu and/or select a menu item. The actual System sound files are still present ("hsandsw" and "MenuPop") and do have sounds when tapped; if Microsoft had removed this option then I would think they would also remove the sounds themselves. So it does indeed seem to be a bug, thus I think it's worth reporting, especially as there are users who want this back. For those who do not want any sound, that's what the mute option is for (and I know plenty of people who want a completely silent PDA - I don't like obnoxious sounds (like the blunt screen taps for every single tap) but do like the feedback for just the Start Menu pop open and select, alarms, and when I want to watch a movie/play a song of course!
Thanks if anyone can post how to fix this in Windows Mobile 6.1 on a Dell Axim x51v!
Uninstall this wretched fix
Please somebody do something about this! I can't afford to do a hard reset, not with the thousands of applications and personalized settings I've got! And some of the system sounds are gone after installing this "fix" and it lacks a proper unistaller! How do I get this off my phone???????
heya folks, i'm probably waaaay off course here, but i need a small favour from you kind people out there
i need to convert a .xml file to a .csv file... anyone up for it?
the basic layout of the xml is

sort of like this in notepad...
Code:
,Nokia,1100,broken screen - 18.00,not charging - 21.00,etc ,etc,etc,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I'm not sure you can. Why would you want to go back to using .3gp?
well I got used to .3gp.
do you know the differences? between the two....
which one is preferable?
Mp4 is better.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The file /system/etc/media_profile.xml has this in it:
Code:

I don't know if changing that will result in what you seek.
So this is weird: it does create the videos in. Mp4 format but somehow changes it to. 3gpp format...I believe after rebooting or mount/unmount sd card by plugging to pc...does anyone know why?
Hi, I'm here with a solution for the low audio notes on Samsung Galaxy S5 running cyanogenmod 13 or 14, also works on 14.1.
I have the SM-G900M version, I don't know if this works on the other versions.
Well, to increase volume on audio notes (like when you record in Whatsapp) first you have to:
1- Download a file browser. I download ES File Explorer File Manager.
2- Then activate root on: Settings > Developer options* > Root Acces > Apps and ADB''
*You can activate developer clicking many times on : ''Settings > About Phone > Build number''
3- Go to ES File Explorer and activate ''Root Explorer'' and ''Show Hidden Files''. Then go to Settings (in the app) and in Home Directory select '' / '' click ''Ok''
4- ''App menu > Home'' and select the folder ''etc'' the scroll down and select the file ''mixer_paths.xml'' and open it with Es Note Editor.
5- Scroll down until you see <!-- Recording Scenario -->
6- Then change the values as I have them here :
<!-- Recording Scenario -->

7- Save the changes, go back and reboot.
8- If is to loud, or low, you can change the values that I put in ''130'', if you put instead of ''130'', ''90'' the recording audios will be hear more low.

Hi, i don't really know because i'm not a developer. But try increasing the values you've there, first make a backup of that code, and then try.
thanks dude, It worked perfectly, i ****ing love u
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to specifically increase the earbuds in call volume? Thank you
Can anyone show me how to boost microphone in video recording? All other things are working, but when I record a video my microphone sound is very, very low. What I have to edit?
Thanks.
Man, you are insane, I've been looking for this for a long time! Thank you so much!
I find 117 instead of 130 more to my taste.
I wonder if there's a way to control also the whatsapp video calls mic gain...
It works! My G900M S5 was in a lower voice and after change the values now fixed it. Thanks
Is this fix S5 exclusive? I have the same low mic volume issue on my S4 since the last update of LOS. It used to work fine in previous versions.
Great fix
I have ressurection Remix ROM on an SM-GT900T Galaxy S5 and Voice recordings and WhatsApp Voice recording were low, I applied your fix to only the three values you suggested at 130 and edited them to 120 and the results were excellent.
Thanks

I'm using Galaxy S5 g900m (klte) and I'm having the same issue, but it's not on Cyanogenmod, it's on LineageOS 15.1 Oreo.
When you record audio and send it via Whatsapp, Telegram, the sound is too low compared to the Stock ROM.
It happens when you listen to the audio as well. Everything seems to be very low, even if you put eveything 100%
mixer_paths.xml doesn't exist on lineageOS
Hi
Was given a P9 recently, been following the guides to unlock bootloader, update via model change etc - it's all updated and running nicely, the only problem I'm having is very low earpiece volume in phone calls.
Been googling etc, can't find any exact matches for this phone, but general android advice included play store apps (that didn't work) and changing values in mixer xml files. Has anyone had any success with that? Closest I could find for the P9 was this thread for headset volume, which at least helped me locate the path to the xml files.
Code:
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_paths_EVA.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_ce.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_cmcciot.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_gcf.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_normal.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_telecomiot.xml
/odm/etc/audio/hi6402/mixer_volumes_EVA_unicomiot.xml
I searched the files for "earpiece" and got sections like
Code:
<path name="call-m0-earpiece" >
<ctl name="AUX PGA GAIN" value="13" />
<ctl name="MAIN PGA GAIN" value="13" />
<ctl name="LINEL PGA GAIN" value="23"/>
<ctl name="MAIN MIC BOOST" value="0" />
<ctl name="AUX MIC BOOST" value="0" />
<ctl name="LINEINL BOOST" value="0" />
<ctl name="S1 OL PGA GAIN" value="0" />
<ctl name="S1 OR PGA GAIN" value="0" />
<ctl name="S3 OL PGA GAIN" value="0" />
<ctl name="S3 OR PGA GAIN" value="0" />
</path>
Tried increasing the MAIN PGA GAIN and AUX PGA GAIN from 13 to 30 (in every similar section with call and earpiece in the heading), started with ...normal.xml and have now tried ce, cmcciot and gcf as well, as suggested in the linked thread. No difference I can notice.
Any other settings I should be trying, any other solutions?
Many thanks for any help!
