Switching ringer to vibrate

How do I make the phone silent and make it vibrate? I swear I think my phone is missing the instruction manual.

I know I can go into settings > Phone and make it vibrate from there , but is there a quick way to just make it silent if i go to the movies etc . ?

you can click on the speaker icon and move it to vibrate.
or download vibraswitch and assign it to a button

Hi
You can also tap the little speaker icon in the top right of the screen and select the vibrate radio button. This mutes the volume and activates the vibrate function.
Hope this helps.

Here is a cab for Vibraswitch if you are interested.
You can install this on your Kaiser and then go to Settings>Home>Buttons and assign one of the buttons to Vibraswitch. I assign Button 6 (Hold) so I can put the phone on vibrate without looking at the screen.
Hope that helps.

Wow thanks you guys are very helpful here. I am starting to like this forum.

Glad you found some help. I've been lurking here for ages and have decided that it's time I gave back some of the help I've recieved here over the years...

I also had one more question but figure I might as well ask here instead of make a whole new thread. I am trying to install the mini mozilla fire fox browser, but when I run the CAB, it says installation unsuccessful . Any idea on what I am doing wrong? I downloaded the cab right from the firefox site.

I couldn't get mine to run either...
So I just use Opera mini until the new Opera Mobile comes out.

Are you using the beta opera?

I thought there was a version of vibraswitch that would toggle thru:
sound on - vibrate - mute
I have been searching for it, but I can not find it. Does it exist?

Mute call from hardware button

Update: Version 2 of this can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2905629
Hello,
I have always fumbled to get to the mute button on the phone screen while on conference calls and decided to look for a program to map to a hardware button to mute/unmute a call. I did not have much luck finding anything so I went ahead and wrote my own. This forum has helped me out tremendously in the past, so I decided to share my program here with the hopes that it can help someone else out.
I made the program fairly configurable. If a call is in progress, it will toggle the mute button. If a call is not in progress, it can be configured to run any other program of your choice (that way the hardware button isn’t wasted).
I did not write a configuration utility, so you have to configure it manually in the registry. Here are the registry details.
HKLM\Software\itsallwright\MobileMute
Options:
BringPhoneToFront = 1 or 0 (If 1 then it will bring to phone app into focus when it runs)
MuteSound = DialPadCtlKey (this is the system sound that is played when the program mutes the call)
PlaySound = 1 or 0 (if 1 then it will play the mute/unmute sounds)
RunProgram = 1 or 0 (if 1 then it will run the configured program if a call is not detected)
RunProgramPath = \somepath (path to desired program to run)
UnmuteSound = DialPadCtlKey (this is the system sound that is played when the program unmutes the call)
Config: (this is how it works – hopefully does not need to be changed, but can be for different devices)
ConnectedText = Connected: (this is the text that shows in the dialer when a call is in progress)
LastCallText = Last Call: (this is the text that shows in the dialer when a call is not in progress)
MuteButtonText = Mute (the text of the mute button)
MuteID = 0x53A0 (ID of the mute button – use spy program to get this)
PhoneWindowTitle = Phone (title of the dialer)
UnmuteButtonText = Unmute (text of the unmute button)
UnmuteID = 0x53A1 (ID of the unmute button – use spy program to get this)
I have tested this on my Kaiser with the default ATT WM6 ROM and on a friend’s Apache with an unknown WM6 ROM.
BTW - this is my first WM application, so don't beat me up too bad if it is not perfect
Enjoy,
Jay

This is very useful and should be posted in the general PPC software areas, why keep this secret for only those in the Kaiser forums?!

This seems to be exactly what I'm looking for...thanks!
Anybody try this on a titan/mogul/xv6800 yet?? I'll have to do some research to figure out my 'button ID', but it looks like it will be well worth it!!!

Excellent....
I have been looking for this functionlity of hard button mapping of call mute. I was hoping MS would implement a virtual key code for the mute function in the newer wm like for the speakerphone but never happened.
Thanks much itsallwright. It works perfect in my tilt. Now, I can use hard buttons for speakerphone & mute (long press green key and I have mapped PTT key for mute.) It was one of the most of useful things I was missing from my BB. Specially for that long conference calls where you have to occasionally say something and keep quite rest of the time.

That is a good point. It was developed for the Kaiser, but theoretically should work on any WM6 device with phone functionality (button IDs might change from device to device though). Unfortunately, I do not know how to move threads. Is it possible to move this to a better place?
Jay

Thanks a Million!
I have been searching without success for ages...more than 2 years for something like this. Search terms I used were "wm6 hardware mute button", "wm6 mute and speakerphone buttons on single dialer page", "assign hardware button for mute", "wm6 phone mute button on dialer", etc
Since there are not any apps to do this, I was attempting to use a combination of utilities (such as VJ Phone utils, AE Button Plus, Vito button mapper, etc) to try and get it working without any success. There does not even seem to be available paid non-freeware utils to do this most important function.
This certainly helps a lot. It works just perfect on my Cingular 8525 and I have the PTT button assigned to it with flashlight being the alternate application that will be used when not in phone mode.
Couple of suggestions:
1) This might already exist in some other utility, but I like your configuration capabilities and the way this utility sets up and it will be nice to extend it to have a speakerphone hardware button in a similar fashion. I guess I can do this on my own by making a copy of your registry keys and modifying them to the speakerphone code...will try and see.
2) When I am in the phone dialer with the keypad, and I press the mute button it switches to the alternate screen without the dialer numeric keys - only the mute, speakerphone etc buttons are available on that screen. Is there a way to make it do its thing without switching the dialer screen in this manner ? This is because I need to have the key pad ready when I either toggle from mute or speakerphone and back and I guess this will be most useful for people who are on conference calls all the time.
Thanks again for a wonderful must-have utility. Dialer developers and ROM cookers should consider having this standard part of distributions. Or give an option to users to have a single screen for the dialer instead of one for the keypad and another for the call staus. There is so much real estate on the phone screen that is wasted if a video call is not in progress and it can very well be used to have all the buttons on a single screen.

I am glad you like the app and that someone else will get some use out of it.

pvenkat stated above that he long presses the green talk key to toggle speaker phone. That seems to work well for me. Does that not work on your phone?

The reason it covers the keypad when you toggle mute it because the BringPhoneToFront setting is set to 1. Try setting it to 0 and it will not interfere with your windows.

Works Like a Charm
Thanks!
Life-changing app if you're on a lot of con calls.

Sweet app!!!
I was unable to install it with the instructions you provided...
But... happily, I was able to find a way around to do it
In case anyone is interested in the approach I took for the setup. Here it is:
My easy to do manual setup
1) Extract the .cab file contents (tools like winrar can do that)
2) rename the mobile~1.001 to MutePhone.exe (or whatever .exe name you want to give it)
3) Upload the exe to your phone to the directory where you want to place it.
4) Install Schap's tools - Advanced Configuration Tool 3.2 released (Link)
5) Use the keymapping feature of the app to map a key to the MutePhone.exe. My personal preference was to map it to pressing and hold the send key (Long press Send key)
Have fun with the MutePhone tool. itsallwright really created an awesome application

Hi,

I have written a MobileMute_v2 and am getting ready to post it here. I will try to post instructions to getting your button IDs at that time.

Is there a way to just execute this and have it toggle mute/unmute without hardware mapping a key and perhaps without staying resident... or are there any future plans to allow command-line execution? -- I am trying to figure out how to be able to mute/unmute the calls from another app (mortscript) in order to eventually create an ad-hoc music-on-hold function. ;-)
Thanks

Yes, that is how this version of the program works. When it starts, it will detect if a call is in progress. If so, it will toggle the mute button and then exit.
v2 is the one that stays resident to eliminate the delay caused by the program initializing. But it only stays resident if it can detect the hardware button used. Otherwise, it functions just like this version.
While writing v2, I found a couple bugs in this version. One being that the setting for button IDs is ignored. So if you need to change button IDs, get MobileMute_v2
Good Luck,
Jay

Going nuts over volume..

I've been searching the forum but can only find volume changers for the standard "Volume" function of the phone, where as i want one which controls alot of volumes or just specific phone-based volumes (that made sense?)
Basically voice commander / tomtom 7 etc really need the phone volume to be set on max (plus the application on max), which is fine.. until i send a text message & everyone in the house gets woken up by a PONGPONG!!!!! sound & i have to change my shorts.
So i need to keep swaping the volume up & down, i know this sounds like a silly thing to be bugging me but omg it does!
Is there anyway to set program specific volumes?
or any other way that'll solve my problems, just to shut up the phones OS based sounds so they play at a tolerant volume rather than so loud my ears bleed.

well, you can set the master volume to high, and disable all the sounds and notifications you dont want. OR craft up your own sound using a sound editor and tweak it to have less volume, then map it to whatever notification u desire to have a sound.

Hmm yeah i had thought of that but its alot of work, was kinda hoping someone could just say "Download this, problem solved"

Check out a program called TomTom Started located over at FreewarePPC.com. It will automatically max out your volume when you launch TomTom, and turn if back down when it closes.
For future reference, I found this answer by searching "tomtom set volume to max" using XDA's Google search engine.

Thanks mate to you and Tripp..well done.

There's a problem with the cab file mate. It tries to install the csv file into the "Windwos" folder, not "Windows".
Cheers.

How to improve touch screen sound "click"

As some people noticed with 4.3 update the "click" sound when we touch the screen its less audible then in 4.1 to solve this problem (if its a problem to you) is:
First of all have root
1- Copy Effect_Tick.ogg from System\media\audio\ui to your computer
2- edit sound volume with any program that give you an option to do that (i use sound forge 11)
3- copy it back to your phone with permissions rw-r-r
I have a sound edit with a gain of 20db if any want test i give a link https://mega.co.nz/#!N1llSQpY!8UK5NaiEPy8ukBuEurcGytL7Qwo1Og__8Hzo2cGC6tM
Good luck
I think that will work for every sound that you want improve play with gain and test.....
If you send me the files i can improve the sounds for you but when i can...... dont see this as an obligation to me....

Im trying right now i would love to gain about 20% of improved general volume but all i´ve tried din´t worked for me anyway thanksfor this the 4.3 clic sound is the sexyest sound on the phone

This click sound is improved not in 20% but 20db. But it's this sound work for you?
If you want improve system sounds you can always edit all system sounds :-o
