Guest Kona Russ Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Has any one customised the profiles yet? It would be nice to have different ring tones allocated to different profiles.
Guest fraser Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Yup, I've done this, to a small degree. "Meeting" is a normal ring at the lowest volume level, with a vibrate first setting. Ditto the notification sound. For office use basically, see my other post in this section. What I'd really like would to be able to create new profiles. Is this possible? I know it's not via the current applications, but it may be possible to programatically do it.
Guest v1nn1e Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 How did you get the Meeting profile to have a different ringtone to other profiles?
Guest midnight Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 yeh, even i'd like to know how you managed that one :wink: cos the profile only tells the phone how it rings, not what it rings
Guest v1nn1e Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 What!!!! Midnight doesn't know! :shock:
Guest midnight Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 well, as far as i can tell, when it switches profiles it does change the registry to affect the 'script' part of the ringtone, but not the actual ringtone.... breaking it down, script includes 'a' that tells it that its a wav/midi, 'vX' (Vibrate, where X is the length of the vibrate) 'p' (tells it to play th sound i think, not 100% about this, but removing the p from keypress does indeed stop it from playing), 'wX' (wait X seconds), and 'r' (for repeat)
Guest Kona Russ Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 So do you think it is possabile to modify the profiles so that they can all play different ring tones?
Guest midnight Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 i personally dont think its possible for different profiles to play different ringtones at all, but hey, what do i know :wink:
Guest v1nn1e Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 We will just have to wait for frasier to tell us. :roll:
Guest fraser Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 Oops sorry, my mistake, it's the same ring tone, but set to the lowest volume. Wasn't thinking straight, sorry if I gave anyone false hope!
Guest midnight Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 hehe :wink: like i said, the profile says how it is going to ring, not what it rings heheh
Guest VaughanWoodall Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 Hello all, I don't have a profiles which ring different tones but.... for all the people in your address book, you can allocate different tones...so technically you can allocate one tone for mates and another for friends etc best advice I can give I'm afraid
Guest midnight Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 yup, it was the customisation of profiles we where talking about tho :wink:
Guest yatpeak Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 ...you can allocate one tone for mates and another for friends... Did you mean one for mates and one for work :lol: ?
Guest VaughanWoodall Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 i have mate and friends you see... oh come it was late and the JD had been flowing :oops:
Guest jim80b Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 umm i have a problem with the profile thing when i have tweaked the reg yo loop ringtones and change between profiles (i use auto so it changes from norm to meeting and i use the headphones alot) it rewrites the reg and stops looping. any fixes???
Guest midnight Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 nope, thats the problem with registry stuff, it can get rewritten by applications unfortunately
Guest fraser Posted March 31, 2003 Report Posted March 31, 2003 Anyone feel like copying all the binaries to the PC and HEX searching for the default script string? If you could locate it and hack it, whenever it applied a ringtone, you could make it looping by default. :lol:
Guest jim80b Posted April 23, 2003 Report Posted April 23, 2003 ok been messing around again with these and have got a result.... copy the *.prof.xml files from IPSMApplication DataProfiles onto your pc, (pref in a seperate dir) open trusty dosprompt, attrib -s -h *.* the directory, edit to your hearts desire....(eg fix that loopling ringtone, and set a differnt ringtone to a profile) attrib +s +h *.* the dir (VERY IMPORTANT OR PROFILES DONT WORK) copy back to IPSMApplication DataProfiles ive done it and it works. DANGER DO NOT TRY THIS UNLESS YOU KINDA KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING ELSE YOU MIGHT KILL YOUR PROFILES, oh and make a backup for goodness sake BEFORE you mess!!!!
Guest midnight Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 yeh, but first, go into profiles, and edit them all so they write themselves into the IPSMApplication DataProfiles dir oh, and another thing, you can actually do this with smartexplorer (to change the file attributes) and notbad (for editing the text), so you dont necessarily need to use a pc
Guest jim80b Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 umm you try that midnight... it dosnt work. period. smartexplorer doesnt give you access to the system attrib and with sys set on orneta notepad doesnt let you open the files, neither does the old free notebad but as i havent got the new one i cant say if that one works
Guest midnight Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 fair enough, just a thought, i thought you could get at the system attrib with smartexplorer, guess you cant, heh, and why not????
Guest caio1 Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 But doing that file copy operation will keep the modification even after phone reboots? Thank you, Caio
Guest jim80b Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 if you copy them back they will suvive a reboot, just make sure you attrib +s +h or the spv wont pick them up again they can by 'lost' if you edit the profiles on the phone as that overwrites your changes
Guest midnight Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 errr, you dont need the +h, in fact, better without it, cos you can see the files you are trying to copy back across, but yes, +s is essential :)
