Changing The Keyboard Slide Noise

[xyon]

Hi all,

Just picked up a Kaiser from the Orange shop this morning & the one thing I can't find to do (so far) is set my own sounds for the keyboard slide noise.

I've done a few searches but haven't found anything. Any ideas anyone?

I'm also interested in this. Who wants to hear a piano when you slide your keyboard out? Though it could have been worse... maybe a crying baby or a dog barking. Talk about irrelevant sfx. I guess a quick hack would be just to locate and replace your Piano sound effect file.

On my HTC TyTN II its simple.

Go to, Start, Settings, Keyboard Sliding Sound.

Maybe this is different with AT&T ROM.

That lets you pick from a set of three defaults .. I want to choose my own wave files.

Also, I've found the soundfiles, but I can't replace them because they're set as system files.

Found those 3 defaults by the way:
\Windows\0_in.wav
\Windows\0_out.wav
\Windows\1_in.wav
\Windows\1_out.wav
\Windows\2_in.wav
\Windows\2_out.wav

Basically u hit the registry,
hklm/software/htc/slidingSound
You will see 3 folders, 0, 1, 2

Inisde each folder theres

Default(name of the sound)
In, and out
If you want your own sound
Create a folder called 3,
Toss your own in & out waves in the windows folder.(important)
in the folder, create a String value, default with the name you want to call it.
Then do the same with the in and out except using the names of the .wavs you tossed in the window folder(include the filetype, such as 3_in.wav)
*edit* forgot to tell you guys to soft-reset after

I use vista's login/logout, sounds excellent.
Ill post the .wavs if you guys want me to.

Yeah you beat me to the punch, took a while for TC/CE to search reg for it:
HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\

Thanks for that, it worked a treat.

Still, its a bit of a mess to do it, you'd think you could just pick the files from a menu, perhaps thats something for version 2.

Well, im still an amatuer programmer and have yet to touch c++, or whatever ppc uses. You guys can ask that tweak guy to implement it in his program, that would be awesome.

the vista sound cool, could u please kindly post'em for us? thanks

I thought the sliding sound effect was the stupidest waste of processor cycles... until i put a very short wav of the transformer sound! now i have my own little cell phone Decepticon!

.wav files in \windows\ and import reg file. now you can select it in sliding sound options under settings tab.

i have resco file explorer and registry editor could you tell me how to make the reg file so i could make them for future keyboard slide .wav clips

Well use windows to do it not ur ppc.

notepad-> copy the stuff he has -> change the name(s) -> save as -> name.reg

Use a registry editor like Total Commander (which is free) or Resco Explorer (paid stuff...) follow the instructions in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336740&highlight=sliding

and you are done...

Guys! I've just figured out how to get the sounds working! (If this has been covered forgive me but I’m really excited I managed to figure this one all by myself lol) basically the wav files need to be the same as the originals (right click on 0_in.wav or 0_out.wav go to properties then summary) the file you want to use must be the same audio sample rate (16bit) and audio format (PCM) I followed the instructions to the letter and was trying to figure why I could select from the drop down list but there was no sound for a preview or even when physically sliding the keyboard up/down. So I looked to the original wavs in windows dir and discovered the wavs I wanted to use were slightly different. So just use a converter to get them to the correct format! Happy days!

Here are some more cool keyboard sliding sounds:

Starcraft Siege Tank in and out...remember?

I personally use the Light Saber in and out from Star Wars!
