Spb Mobile Shell - one more profile needed

[ctibor]

To: developers who have dealt with Spb Mobile Shell.

I would like to have only one more profile in Mobile Shell: vibro and ring together (something similar to the "loud" profile in Spb Phone Suite.)

If I would add somehow this new profile to the existing three ones, I could uninstall Phone Suite that eats up a lot of memory and practically I use only the Profiles feature of it.

If someone had a suggestion, maybe a registry tweak, or some workabout, I would appreciate the help.

cheers

I know this is probably a daft question but have you set the ring type in;
Start>settings>phone ...to ring and vibrate?

I did 'hack' the profiles in the registry...
Instead of the three profiles I have one icon that starts 'scenarios', which I believe is software from ETEN...it came with my rom. It basically has four customisable profiles.
I will see if I can find the cab file for this and the reg settings if you like.

[edit]

Here's a cab file that installs the ETEN phone suite...it should be a lot smaller than SPB phone suite! I've included the reg hack that enables the scenarios option in SPB shell. Enjoy!
:D

Thanks a lot, Andy.

I also used Scenarios but -- if I remember well -- it took more than 1 MB, so after a while I uninstalled it.

I'll give your version a try, maybe this will be the right solution for me.

But the best one would be to have a fourth icon in Mobile Shell Profiles menu that would allow toggle between 'ring and vibrate' or just 'ring'.

I have found on the wiki pages that there is a possibility to change rigtone/vibrate chacteristics in 'HCKU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script'.

But I don't know how to create a small app (or use an existing one) for changing from one script to another and back just by activating a shortcut.

Please, help me if somebody has an idea. (I am a simple user but I like fine-tuning my device-- if I can...)

Thanks,

Well SPB PhoneSuite does this...even with an active icon in your mobile shell.. :)

Yes, I know. Currently I use Phone Suite with Mobile Shell.

But my orginal point was to replace Phone Suite with a simpler and smaller app, while maintaining the possibility to have more than 3 profiles. If I were satisfied with 3 profiles, I would'nt need any other than Mobile Shell.

Phone Suite also makes the device slower (you know, Artemis is not the fastest HTC phone at all...)

If you want just profiles, than have a look at SBSH Phoneweaver ;)

perhaps PocketZenPhone? it is a freeware application with profiles that are extremely cutomizable. possibly TOO customizable, as that was what made it too daunting to me, and made me switch over to SPB Phone Suite. It may be up your alley though, it's a VERY light application (only an 88kb cab)
