M600 Vibrate upon key-press?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if it is possible to have the M600 vibrate upon the press of a key (when pressing the touchscreen)

There are times when I am dialling a number and it would be nice to have some fedback, or even when texting using phone pad.

Im sure some of the other PPC devices can do this but I had a look in the registry and there is no option for action upon keypress.

Im no expert but is it possible to create this action, or steal it from one of the other PPC platforms?

I'm sure I read somewhere that this could be done, but I cant find it now

Try D9 instead of the built-in dialer, that has vibration support

Ive tried the D9 before and yes it gives me the vibrate function but I dont really like the interface, not as functional as the standard one.

I wouldnt mind a feature that vibrated every time the screen was tapped - that wouldnt be such a bad thing - is that something which is possible?

Is this possible on the m600?

Add vibration to buttons when dialing a number

Description Add a small vibration for every key pressed when dialing the phone. Improves tactical feedback.

Type Registry Tweak

Date Added 04-23-2006

Instructions Using a registry editor navigate to the following keys and follow the directions. Do this for each of the listed registy keys

1. Rename Standard DWORD parameter "Sound" to "Sound1"

2. Create new String Parameter "Sound"

3. Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf#

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf*

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf0

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf1

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf2

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf3

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf4

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf5

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf6

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf7

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf8

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf9

Notes A softboot is required

to change back to the default function, go back through the list of registry keys, delete the "sound" entry, and rename "sound1" back to "sound"

note: the * needs to be entered in the value for "*vibrate*"

This tweak really makes it easier to know that you have pressed a button when dialing on the touch screen

Cheers for that i'll try it tonight - much appreciated.

Does it work on every key-press or just when using the dialler etc...

No, Only works on the numbers on the dailer keypad.

Tried loading this cab file and it installs ok but has no effect and doesnt add the vibrate fuction to keypress - anyone else had the same problem?

Sorry for all the questions, but will that include the dialler pad when using phone pad when composing a text message.

if it isnt - is this something that is possible at all?
