can you make your SPV vibrate and ring?

[Guest Dave DR]

also how can you assosiate files with programs?

cheers

There is a registry hack for file associations, i'll try and dig it out later.

To make your phone virbrate and ring go to Programs > Settings > Profiles

Select a profile and click "on call", you'll have a list of all ring/vibrate combination options.

Nice onw.. me being blonde by the looks of things... i need to assosiate Avi's with the Divx Program...

[Guest MoRFLeZ]

To associate files with certain programs use RegEdit and do as follows:

(This is an example for txtfiles seeing that's the only one I've done! But it can be done with any file-type)

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT // txtfile // Shell // Open // Command // Values // Default

In there you change the Value date to the path where your program lies. In my case it's:

"Storage CardMy DocumentsMy UtilsOrnetaNotepad.exe" %1

Remember the "

For avifiles it would be this:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT // avifile // Shell // Open // Command // Values // Default

"blah blah root to program" %1

Good luck...

Wonder if you happen to know how to make the phone vibrate longer or ongoing til I press any of the buttons, as it only vibrates only once and then never again! The reason being that I'm deaf and I wouldn't feel it going off in my pocket, would be of great benefit to me and other deaf users.

Many thanks! ;)

You can edit the registry for SMS HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Notifications

Click on Values and select Script

Now for example change the Value Data to v1w1v1w1v1

This will change your vibrate notifications to vibrate 1 sec wait 1 sec Vibrate 1 sec etc but keep your incoming call vibrate unchanged.

This works until you reboot the phone.

I do not know if the same can be applied to call notifications though as I have not found a way yet.

Thank you Awarner, for advising.

But can I ask how do I edit this and find the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Notifications

file too, is that via Activesync explore or on the phone itself? Would be grateful for step by step instructions if possible please.

Thank you. ;)

Thanks for the link and I've tried installing it but it doesn't appear to work, as it's not happening on installing into my C500 phone. Although noticed it's for Smartphone 2002, but I've got Windows Mobile 2003 second edition, would that have any effect? I've already rebooted phone but nothing still! Any ideas please, and sorry for this!

Have you application unlocked your phone? if I remember right you will need to.

I have this app running on my C500 without a problem.

If you mean the "Security levels", it's now set to "security disabled" it's one software that I got from Orange. Does this mean it's unlocked? I can't find the app on my phone. Might need a zip file installed in phone.

[Guest awarner [MVP]]

As it mentioned on the site if the installer is not working on the PC try the cab file instead.

Using activsync place this file in Storage\Windows\Start menu\Accessories then on the phone go to your Accessories folder and you should then be able to select and install the file you have just placed there.
