You need to install a program that can edit registry and do the following change:
Look up HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Cal lStart
Change the InitVol value to 0

This is free:

Guess you have to choose the ARM version at the top in the drop down list.
Didn't get the desktop installer to work.
Copy the .cab over to your device and run it from there.
Well... why not just put it here.

After changing the value to "0" and pressing done, I exit the program and no longer have the beep when dialing. Once I shut down the phone and reboot, the beep starts up again. Is there a way to make it permanent?

There is. 1. Use Total Commander (freeware (http://www.ghisler.com/smartphone.htm)) and copy the file Silent.prof.xml from the folder Application data\Profiles to the folder \Application data.
2. Then rename the copied file name to Normal.prof.xml (or Meeting.prof.xml, if wished, this is the buzzing profile).
3. Then move the new Normal.prof.xml (pr Meeting.prof.xml) back to the folder Application data\Profiles and overwrite old file.
4. After this you'll to have to reconfigure your settings in the normal (and meeting) profile but the beep at call start won't return even if device is restarted.
Got this solution from another S730 forum. Seems the Silent.prof.xml file is the only one in which the beep at call start is disabled.

it's quite a lot easier editing your profile xml file. change the value 'CallStart' to '0' and you're done.

Hey Admins,
perhaps you can make a sticky "Tweaks for HTC Wings" including this tweak.

I tried this to do with the built-in editor of total commander and I even tried downloading and uploading the file.
I haven't had any success. I changed the value to "0" and then I wasn't able to select that profile any more.
I had to start over with "use defaults", then I was able to select and configure that profile again.
What have I done wrong?

I was having the Same issue over here.
Now I solved it thanks to Radiax!
The solution is simple, change your profile again like you did last time, but after saving the file you have to navigate to Properties (File -> 0 More -> 4 Properties) and change the System value to +. Make sure to use the latest version (V2.5, released 24th of April) because this function doesn't work in previous versions.
Hope this'll work for you just like it did for me.

Nice! This indeed works a lot easier than the steps I mentioned earlier in this thread. :)

Hi all,
I tried to set my Wings like described above, but I cann´t use the profile anymore after changing something.
I´m doing this with TC 2.5 and the system bit is set.
Any ideas?
edit: in addition - i don´t have a folder profiles in appdata, the xml´s are in windows folder on my wings

Interesting that yours are in a different location, but make sure you did not delete any of the code terminators IE <> "[} or anything that would kill that part of the script.
If you (hopefully) made a backup of the origional file just take a look at it vs what you have. Otherwise pull up another profile and see what differences there are in hopes of finding the issue. Make sure it got saved ontop of the origional file as well and not saved elsewhere...

Hi,
yes it is very strange, that the files are in another location, I had to search for them, but because the profiles now don´t work anymore I think this are the correct files to edit.
The only thing I changed was the "1" to "0" for the last entry in the profile xml.
I have now two non working profiles :-/ silent and vibrate.
Vibrate because I edited it (think so) and silent after i opened it with TC editor. The normal profile was only opened within pocketIE and still workes.
Damn, I should have realized before, I compared the working and the non working files and recognized that only non moded files stored in rom work and the others don´t

Oh damn, I´m so stupid.
I tried different things and then suddenly I had an idea.
The Problem I had was that the files to edit did not exist. So i searched for them and what I found and edited where not the profile files but the standard definitions for the profiles for resetting them. I´ve made a copy of the .def.prof.xml´s to /application data/profiles .prof.xml ...
Now I have all profiles fully functional and no more beep ;-)
