It's about time we started some threads in here, i will start with my favourite ringtones for my O2 XDAIIs, and maybe we can build on that, put in requests etc...

This is all happening on the sister site for their phones, we should have our own.

Don't forget to do the Registry hack that allows use of ringtones on your memory cards.

What's the hack?!?

[ricmoo2003]

Open your registry editor, and do this......

go to  HKEY_CURRENT_USER - ControlPanel - SoundCategories - Ring

And change the Directory string to read storage cardringtones

then move all your ringtones from your windowsring folder into your new folder on the storage card and when you go into options in the phone you will see them all there to choose from.

Hope this helps

Ok, I've done this now. (Yay! Ringtone from SD card! )

Can it be done for notifications too? (Rather than storing them in Windows)
I've had a poke around in the registry but I can't find anything apart from editing each one individually.

Sorry to sound stupid, how do i get into the registry to edit this out???

thanks again.

[ricmoo2003]

Do a google for PHM registry editor, you will find it, it's free

Richard

[DylJones]

Yeah, PHM registry editor is what i used.

Any idea about the notifications?

[ricmoo2003]

I tried the setting in the reg for notifications but it didn't seem to work, it needs someone a bit more tekkie than me for that one, you do know that if you put wav files into the windows folder you can use them for notifications?

[DylJones]

yeah, I know but it takes up precious space on the device when I have plenty on my SD card!

i dwnloaded the file, and when i try installing this it does not show on my PDA or give me an option to select the install from the box of options..

do i need to do anything else to my XDA II in order to allow me to run this program?

[ricmoo2003]

Rand, not quite sure what you mean? are you talking about PHM Software in which case i will give you the msi file, just double click and it will install via activsync and be on your program list

Richard

[DylJones]

To be honest, I tried the MSI a few times yesterday and it didn't work. In the end I downloaded the CAB file and ran the install stright off the phone. Worked fine for me...

[ricmoo2003]

Where have the attachments gone?

[simonastro]

can anyone tell me how to change the font on my today screen?
I've managed to change the system font but it doesnt alter the today screen

cheers

Thanks for that tip on using ringtones from the SD card - much appreciated. Now if only someone does the same with notifications then I'll be happy

Moving the folders MMS saves its files to SD card saves a mass of space too, at least in my case, I receive two MMS a day from my gf cos of her vodafone picture pack
