Vibrate while dialing a Phone Number

[frikibabi]

First of all I love my new TyTN II and XDA-Developers!

Question: Anybody know of a hack or a .cab that will make my touch pad numbers vibrate when I dial a number? This way I know when I've pressed a touch button on the display - had it on my MDA Compact II and loved it!

PS: I've attached the two .cab files I use to have, but they don't work on the Kaiser...

it's a bit of a work, but the result is great!

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

have fun!

very good
there is a delay until the vibration begins,
if you are used to tapping the numbers quickly..
otherwise GREAT find
thank you

To be clear...

There is a delay when you push the first number. After that the vibe is almost instantaneous.

At least on my Tilt.

same with me...not even worth installing... i dont dial that slow..

[frikibabi]

Amazing Tool!

The initial delay doesn't bother me...
Simple to install & simple to use!

Big Thanks!

I installed the program and it works great when you are making the call initially...but call is connected and I tried to key in (like entering numbers on an automatic response system), it doesn't vibrate.

Normal?

[mac_d4di]

works fine for me. this is the .cab file. drag it into your phone, and run it from the phone and it should install.

do not unzip the cab prior to install. just dl it, drag to phone, open from phone, and it should install fine.

same thing with me

[RemE]

From a previous thread on this, I thought that the cab version had the delay but the direct reg edit method was virtually instantaneous, but I haven't verifed this.

[michalopoulosgk]

I installed it, was working about half the time (key presses) , then I deinstalled it. Now the standard "Options" for key tones (short tone, long tone) do not work and the keypad is not very accurate. Is there a way to correct for this?

[rico002]

dont unzip on ur desktop, send it to ur pphone and open it with pocket rar and then install the cab.

thanks rico, decided not to install it after they fixes the "bugs" with delay...

[curtosrules]

the delay doesn't bother me too much, seems to be an issue with the first number pressed. I backed up after dialing a number and it had the "delay" when I started the new number. cool little cab. thanks

i did it with the reg edit method, and there is no delay...
it took me about 5 minutes then, so whats that comparing to a lifetime? :D

[tanwill]

Sorry but dont quite understd the registry method.
You mean :

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\Sound1\Dtmf#
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf*
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf0
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf1
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf2
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf3
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf4
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf5
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf6
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf7
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf8
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sound1\Dtmf9
Notes A softboot is required

great thread. just cant understand why you would waste your time, i wrote a cab just like this and made a thread many months ago its in the kaiser software section its all over the the place. KD8DNS_KEYPAD_VIBRATE is the name of the cab.

[sNowMaN432]

ok im confused on this part

1. Rename Standard DWORD parameter "Sound" to "Sound1"
2. Create new String Parameter "Sound"
3. Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.

a little more explanation?

[sNowMaN432]

ok installed the .cab file and all the tones are messed up in the keypad. any way i can revert back how it was. the cab doesnt show up in the installed programs and i used the uninstaller provided before. both were unsucessfull.

[KD8DNS]

download KD8DNS_KEYPAD_VIBRATE you have to search for it im on my ppc right now so i cant link it. the original program is uninstallible and it works.
