Hi to all,
I am trying to replace the file "lowbatt.wma" in the /windows folder, in order to have a different low battery sound, but the system does not permit me, neither to overwrite the file. Is there a way to do this action?
Thanks

I guess the phone wont allow you to overwrite or replace the default lowbatt alarm...since its on the ROM. If your trying to use a customized sound file....make sure its a wav file. Have you tried to just drop that file under the windows directory and then selecting it from under sounds and alerts? I believe this should work.
Good Luck.

Thank you.
The fact is that I do not find the option to change the sound of alarm low battery in the "alert/sound" menu. Where is it? I found only the one to change sound of incoming calls, incoming messages, ecc ecc.

If your using a stock phone you wouldn't be allowed to make this modification from the sounds and notifications option. What you can do then is to add this entry into the sounds and notifications drop down menu. To do tht:
1. Your going to need a registry editing software.
2. Back up your registry before proceeding ( if you havn't already done so)
3. Before you go into the registry, make sure the wav file tht you want to use as your preferred low battery alarm is placed under the windows directory.
3. Navigate to the location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877 D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}\
4. Create a new string value here and call it Default.
5. Set its value to Low battery warning
6. Now go sounds and notifications and under the notifcations drop down you should see the low battery warning option.
7. Select it and assign your customized wav file to the entry.
And your set! Try it out.
Good luck.
