How Do You Add New Keyboard Sliding Sounds?

[HTC89T]

I'm trying to figure out how to add more KSS to my Tilt? How do I do that?

There's some cabs to do it. Mine sounds very nice now.

Thanks! you still have to register it even if you have your own sounds you wanna use already on your phone?

I wanna use my own sounds. How do I go about that?

You basically have to add a branch to the registry where the reference to the files (which can only be wav's) are stored.

How to make custom 'Keyboard Sliding Sounds'


Want to create your own keyboard sliding sounds?WM6 comes with three by default, and you can't add custom ones...

Or can you?

Using a registry editor, nav to:

\HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound

There are 3 keys: 0,1, and 2. These represent the three current sounds: piano, xylophone, and whatever the third is.

Make a copy of one of these and name it 4. Inside 4, set Default to the name for your sound. Then make the In and Out point to the appropriate wav's in the Windows directory.

Soft reset your device, then go to Start > Settings > Keyboard Sliding Sounds. Your new entry should appear in the list.

Hope it helps!!

Thanks! I wasn't sure if they had to be WAV or MP3

Good looking out.

I'm having problems trying to set the KSS on my phone I already installed the Registry on my phone and found the file path and my phone freezes when I try to copy the file and it's not recognizing the wav files.

Is there a particular way or program to record as a wav file? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Or you could simple install the cab, and replace some of the new sounds with your own wav's...

How do I save it to as a CAB? Does the WAV file need to be CAB file too?

 

[surur]

No, the cab from the first post.

Anyway, the main feature of the wav file is that it needs to be small and short, and placed in the windows directory of your phone.

As I said, why dont you get the xda-developers version working first, then add your own custom sounds. One thing at a time.

One of my files are 209K is that too large what do you think is the max. wav. file to use?

I've put it in the Window Registry and it still doesn't work

What I did I didn't copy one of the files and renamed it 4 I just hit MKDir. Was I suppose to do that? or does it need to be a copy?

After I did that I went to +Add Value+ and set one to Default, In, and Out than made the contents whatever the name I wanted to call it and made the In & Out content whatever the wav file names were and restarted the phone and it still didn't work. What am I missing or haven't done yet?

And that website I made an account and it wouldn't let me log on. I never received an activate link in my email or any emails from the site and I tried to make a new account with the same email and it said it was already being used. What's up with that?


Thanks for helping me out

This message pops up everytime I try to log-in, reply, download, or post on the XDA site. What's up with this?

 

[surur]

Ive put it in a rapidshare link for you.

http://rapidshare.com/files/70457956/Sliding_Sounds.cab.html

209 Kb does seem a bit big to me, but its similar in size to the native sound files used.

Good looking out on the link I finally got this down now, now I'm gonna try to add more sounds.

Thanks again

i tried all that but i just dont see where the link from a new string to the .wav file is? how will the new string in the registry know where to get the .wav file from?

ps. the slidng sounds.cab file worked good. but to make a custom one is hard. i hae the small .wav files. 2: in and out. how do i add them to a new folder in the \\\registry\HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSounds\4

by the way when i make the new strings for in and out, it asks me for the data value. what is th data value?

also when i try to cut from "my documents" to the registry file, it tells me that the function is not supported.

 

[surur]

The wav files are in the \windows directory, so no file path is needed.

Worked fine for me. I saved the cab to my storage card and it didn't work but it did when I moved it to the device. I can't decide betweem the lightsaber and transformer sound! haha

where it load on the phone? or how do i activate it?

Just save that CAB to your phone, run it which will install the sounds, and then go to Settings -> Personal -> Keyboard Sliding Sounds and they will be in the list.
