Weird sound from end call key

[Soniku007]

for some reason my end call key on my Wing makes this annoying beep after i press it. I have also noticed that the Call History and delete buttons also make this odd sound. Any ideas as to why? I have tried to listen to all of the sounds that i could find on my Wing, but no luck finding the source of this annoying beep

Is it really that annoying? It just sounds like a beep... :confused:

yes it is annoying because it's not supposed to beep at all.

After some searching on my Wing, I have discovered that it's the dpadctl.mid sound that has somehow been mapped to the buttons mentioned in my first post about this issue. How can I unmap this sound from these buttons?

EDIT: I have found the solution for this problem if anyone else is having it.

Disable the "ding" sound when initiating a call and ending a call.
hkey_current_user\controlpanel\soundcategories\inc all
change the initvol to 0. do the same for hkey_current_user\controlpanel\soundcategories\inc allfeedback
The sound is dpadctl.mid

Disable SMS message sent notification:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
3. Next, click on Inbox (make sure the Inbox is highlighted) and select Edit, New Key
4. Name the New Key as "Settings"
5. Click on "Settings" (make sure the Settings is highlighted) and select Edit, New String Value
6. On "Value name:", key in SMSNoSentMsg and in "Value data", key in 1

That beep has been driving me crazy like you wouldn't understand. Thank you so much!

For those of you that are too lazy to edit the registry or don't feel comfortable doing it. Here is the fix in .cab and .reg format to disable the beep.
