SOLVED: set pda to mute... EXCEPT one phonenumber. - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

My wife is going have our baby very soon. So I want to be reachable during work, including meetings... but only for her number.
So I wonder, is it possible to set my phone mute except for one phonenumber, and if so, how?
Cheers, Arend

Just created the possibility of being practical... And what I thought of is: what I could do is use a default ringtone that makes no noise at all and set a customized ringtone for my wifes number.
Gonna test this but I think it will work.

OK. Works like a charm.

Thanks for providing a good practical problem and a solution too

Nice one...was interested to see how this worked out..off to record a silent ring tone!!

Thnx guys for your possitive responses.
To be in service, here is the silent ringtone I created. To use it, place it in "\Windows\Rings".

Being installed as I type thanks for share - emul

Profiles

Is there an app or tool that lets me use profiles, like a standard Nokia phone.
I would like an bar on my today screen where I can set a profile for normal, loud, silent, headset, meeting, etc.
With each profile have a different incomming phone call volume and ringtone. Same for Messages and notifications.
Is this availeble? or hard to create? Are should I keep on dreaming?
Thnx
try pocketzenphone (http://zendrui.free.fr/PZPForum/index.php), I use it for years now and its great!
The Ringtone you can define at the contact directly. Its not possible to change the volume for each contact seperately.
thnx
Looks like a good tool.
Only thing I dont like about it is the 30-day trail Periode.
I found Profiles - v1.2.1 on www.pocketpcfreewares.com.
Its FREE I'm gonna test it for a few days. I believe I read somewhere that it isn't all that great, but we'll see.
Thnx Calvin42
I had a little problem with my free app this morging.
I set the alarm to go of at 06:00, but it didn't.
There was no sound, so no waking up.
Gonna find me another app.
pocketzenphone is the best of all!
Try it and you won't regret it :wink:
Also give PhoneAlarm 1.30.03 a try. Personally I find it better than Pocketzenphone primarily because of the fact that it gives you the possibility of repeat alarms in case of a missed call, unread new SMS and e-mail, etc.
Kind Regards

Treo threaded sms

Has anyone got this workin on there Excaliber and does it work properly?
Try this app instead: http://benhirashima.com/software/
Ahhh thanks.....Have you tried this?
does it work well?
Thanks
I've tried this and qthreader and much prefer qthreader. It's notifications are more reliable, allows sms to email addresses and runs a lot faster than txtman.
http://www.trianglepowers.com/
get the version for the q, it works perfectly on the landscape display.
Triangle Powers isn't working... I remember seeing someone posting direct links on some forum somewhere that do work.
Does anyone have them by chance? Thx in advance. (the one for the Q/Dash)
you have to "application unlock" the dash first.
Anyone able to Appunlock the Dash? I have tried many times with no success.
qthreader works great on my HTC Excalibur.. but how do u adjust the volume on the incoming text message.. it seems that the system notification tone is bypassed by the program..

I'd really like to know this also. The program works great but I can't hear any notifications.
I dont think you can adjust the volume, what you can do is replace the default sound with another. The default sound \Programs\smsthreader\newsms.wav Just rename any .wav to newsms.wav and overwrite the one in the folder listed above, back up the original if you like.
Anyone got a link to qthreader
the above site seems to be down?
Cheers
Jamie
I just replaced the newsms.wav file with another .wav file and it worked but now the sms notification is so loud the speakers crackle when i recieve an SMS..

looks good. but it is not free.
well, i used this app since my S1. it works great. but sometimes the caller's sound is not clear/light. anyway, so far so good for me.
MOD EDIT HDser Comment removed as it is not in line with our site policy
while browsing trough my windows folders, stumbled uppon record.exe, or something, it was build in by windows, but has been removed, at least, not able to start it up, maybey a way to install it again
I have tried this software, and the voice of the person that talked with me was very low.

I totally agree
It works well if you put the speakers on during the call.
I know this way everybody in the room will hear the convo, but.. it works.
LOL.
Audio notes touch just not good enough...
It doesnt record the one you are talking with (you can vagely hear the other person, as the microphone picks up some of the sound from the personal loudspeaker).
I would like to record all of my calls (crispy clear sound from both parts), and I cant run around with the back side speaker on.
Anny suggestions?
Another ROM update or maybe another program?
thnx..

RING tone sound

hey has anybody got the sound for the rigtones working yet
is there a fix ? patch ? etc....
thanks
search the threads and you will find your answers there.
seriously?
if you want info on whether or not the ringtone/external speaker issue has been solved, check the dev threads. If there is a breakthrough they will all have updated it already since its a problem plaguing all rhodium devices.

Come on, man this was his first post, I understand that it's frustrating when someone posts without having read the stickies, but it's posts like that, which are so decidedly unhelpful.
For example, this is a good response, it berates him for not having read but it also contains USEFUL information:

Ring tones are working
Ring tones are fixed in the latest build as of 08/30/2010, i.e. sound is working in general.
In my case to actually get the handset to ring on incoming calls, I had to conduct the following steps (before that only the silent option was available as a "ring tone"):
go to settings -> Dev tools -> media scanning. Perform media scan. After that the OS restarted and the phone started ringing. Yeah...
cheers
BTW, I just noticed that the media scanning has to be conducted each time one the handset is turned on, otherwise the phone is not ringing.
Can anybody confirm that?
In addition I am not able change the ring tones in settings -> sound -> incoming calls. Why is that and can this be changed?
Has anyone found that if they use their own ringtone, an incoming call only rings once? I've tried converting my ringtones from .mp3 to .ogg but it still only rings once. If I switch to a stock ringer, the an incoming call rings over and over like it should.
ringtones
my tounch pro2 with the latest blazin build will use any mp3 i chose to use as a default ringtone and will ring more than once and play the full song. But on the other hand my other cell has all the same setup but only shows silent only, so it could be just the headset itself and not the build.

It's the card. Format it with the HP tool. Full format. Also, BLAZN is pretty outdated (9.28 was the last update).

The Speaker

Ok so far I like it - and I love the watch
Maybe a have this wrong....
Mute the watch also mutes the phone
muting the phone does not mute the watch????
So you are in a meeting and you place your hand over the phone, or flip it on its back to mute but your watch keeps ringing! Is it working differently for other people? It just seems so dumb - when would you want to mute the phone in a situation as above but want the watch to keep making sound?
App makers - start building - help us to get the most out of this new asset
I am finding the speaker to be inconsistent across manufacturer phones. I have an LG G4 and it mostly plays nice. I haven't put the call feature through the full tests but I did notice that when I was on the phone-phone and a 2nd call came through, flipping over to the 2nd caller automatically caused my watch to activate and audio conversation came from the watch, even though I did everything on the phone.
I haven't checked the muted issues, but that could really be an issue I need to really test. I have constant conference calls where I mute. I also work from home most days. I would HATE HATE HATE to mute the phone and talking dirty to my passing GF. Fortunately I do not wear the watch much at home but good to know.
sound Alarm
Sorry can not help you in terms of your question, I'm looking to settle another matter! How can add and change alarm tones or notifications, because I have not found tones than only to call?

You have to do it manually, and you have to be rooted. Admittedly this info. is in the the wrong thread, but Motawa88 posted there, so I helped him out there.
Starting at post #353: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...skin1980s-huawei-watch-kernel-t3219576/page36
I suggest maybe starting a separate thread instead of posting ringtone/alarm tones in a kernel thread :good:
