Hi,
I've been reading the forum for about a month, and have a question about the feasibility of something (or where to get it if its already been developed). I have a T-mobile PPC/PE and want to be able to play sounds while on a phone conversation (i.e. play an MP3 so both parties on the phone can hear it). options to allow it to play only to user, only to caller, or both would be nice, but so far I haven't even seen the issue addressed anywhere (I'm probably going to regret saying that - the question has probably come up before and my searches just didn't use the right terms).
So does a program exist that can do this? Is it possible to do?
Thanks,
Jon.
Just checked, and it does indeed appear that you can't make the PDA produce any sounds while in call. The PDA can record, because the call recording function wouldn't work otherwise.
No clue how to solve this.
since u guys were discussing it on the forums, i thought i might try it out
definately a great program
it can even dial my girl friends name, which is french... dunno if its just going based on her first name cause its american or ... but it works none the less. windows down music up or totally quiet
if u dont have it i suggest getting it. i find the standard ear buds that come with it to be a pain in the ass, so just speaking into the mic on the pda is much better

yessss! it sure is a great program
i originaly downloaded a 'borrowed' copy, but i appriciated the work soo much
i actualy baught a serial #
also... you CAN train it for any name u want, even chinese or wat ever...
go to the control panel, and record your own voice for the names that give u trouble dialing. absolutly great program. always turns heads when people see me conversate with a pc. hahaha
OH! by the way... since you liked voice dialer,

UPDATED!
140 Total Tones/SMS for Free download!
I made ringtones from instrumental versions of a bunch of songs. They are melodies I enjoy so hopefully others may come across something they like. I suggest listening to all before deciding its not your taste. All ringtones had the bass decreased and were slightly amplified to sound better on a phone. Please feel free to leave feedback and suggestions for other ringtones. If I can find the instrumental version of your favorite song then I will make a ringtone. Thanks!

Great post!
i was wondering if you could make some ringtones for my phone or find some that are awesome.
i'm currently making a them based on marijuana, its looking preeeeety badass at the moment, hopefully you have seen it.
Could you find me or make me some ringtones based on bong/puff sounds?
like the bubble sound it makes or something?
if this isn't what you do, let me know
Thanks in advance!
Btw; let me know what you think of the theme im creating, even if you dont like it! tell me!
LOL I will surely try to make you something....as far as your theme goes, im not sure where you have it for me to look at it, but i have nothing against a marijuana theme or the plant itself for that matter ))
Bong hit posted on the website....believe it or not, its actually hard to find free sound effects of this type... lemme know if your looking for something other then what I have posted there.

when you say voice mail greeting do you mean voicmail notification sound? meaning the sound your phone makes to let you know that you have a voice mail? if so you take the tone and copy it on your sd card to this location...media/audio/notifications Hope that helps.

You might need to reboot phone afterwards, but im not 100% sure so just check first before you reboot.
no, the actual greeting when someone calls, and I dont answer, it goes to voice mail, like I am unable to answer the phone right now......, thats the one I was meaning, sorry for the mix up

then what you said originally is correct....unfortunatly I dont know another way to do it besides playing the clip while recording the greeting on the phone. If anyone else knows a more direct way to plug and play a clip as a greeting please chime in as I would like to know this too. THanks
How do I get these?

Now while I like the "nature" theme of the SIII as much as the next guy, I've got one problem with it.
Like the title says, I really dislike the "plop" sound that you get when dialling, and would much prefer to have a proper (?) dialling tone, e.g. where each key has a different note.
Try as I might, I can't find any easy way to switch to dial tones like I had on my old SE X10, so unless someone out there's got a solution, I can see I'm going to end up switching off dial noises altogether.

Why hasn't anyone answered this question? It's important to have these tones when calling an automated system.

It does actually send the correct tone down the line, you just hear a different one locally. It's hard to say if there is an easy fix, because there should be a sound assignment to each key in the Phone apk or related, and if Sammy has replaced them all with a single one, it might not be so easily modified to point each button at a seperate sound.
All I can suggest is to get an alternative dialer, perhaps the AOSP one?
When I called my bank, it didn't work. I switched from short tones to long ones and it still didn't work.
If I can find a different dialer I guess I'll try it.

That's very strange because it's practically a critical feature that the phone dialer can send DTMF tones. I use it regularly myself so I can promise you that it does work for some of us, it could very well be a problem with your bank. Try rip the phone apk out of a Cyanogen build or similar if there are no dependencies, or if you get a dialer from the play Store pay careful attention to how reliable it is and its permissions, just in case.
I asked this question weeks ago and no one has come up with any 'fix' for it...
The tones you hear when pressing a key have nothing to do with the tones the phone sends as described.
Try calling another phone and pressing the keys, you should hear a distinction between all single tones. (If not, please have your ears checked )
Did you have a good connection when calling the bank? The tones heavily rely on a halfway acceptable connection.
If you still want to hear distinct tones, try other diallers such as Go Dialler. They might be able to do it since it's onlce purely cosmetical.
It could be a problem on the bank's end because Google Voice works.

I'm going to agree with what's said here - while plopping noise IS annoying, I've not had any problems with automated "Press 1 for ..., press 2 for ..., or wait on the line and an operator will assist you" services - they all seem to work. So, the problem - for me at least - is purely cosmetic.
I'd assumed that the plop had been part of the theme that Sammy had applied to the SIII, in which case an experienced themer should be able to undo this in favour of some a bit less crappy. Although not being a 'droid developer or themer myself (merely a user) I've no idea where to start looking for that kind of info - fingers crossed that it's in a configuration file somewhere in the system.
I have been annoyed by this also. I myself am so use to hearing dial tones, that I'm just missing the sound, and just want them back.
I found this, where a user replaced the waterdrop with DTMF tones........but its for the Galaxy s......Good news is the zip has all the tone .ogg's. Maybe someone can look and it and figure out a way to port?

I'm also missing the well known DTMF tones and pissed about that bubbles.
"Nature inspired" concept and our device desing is very nice but this chage is absolutely stupid.
Nature don't has phones growing in trees an phone calling couldn't sound like a leaking tap.
Hope somebody was able to port this SII mod to our device...
WP8 gives you the option to change SMS, email, etc tone, but I want to use my own sound. Anyone know if this is possible on WP8?

would like to know as well. Thanks!
Unfortunately no. You can only use custom ringtones. Txt, voicemail and Email have to use one of the canned tones. That and the ability to not have unread text or voicemail repeat notifications. My phone is also my pager and when on call, I need this to go off mored than once to wake me up most times. I'm hoping to find an app to address this but for now, these are about the only things I really find annoying about the phone.
Returning for Android
Well after searching for an app to allow custom tones for messages, etc to no avail, I've decided to return the phone and go back to Android. Not only are the options there but there are also better apps such as SMS Popup which I can't live without when my on-call rotation comes around again.

Never really understood the need for this, as long as it makes a sound I am good But I guess thats a personal choice to make. Good luck with Android

Simple, my phone is also my pager and when I am on-call for ~ 2,000 Windows servers, if something goes wrong, I need those pages to wake me up. Something the stock one-time-only tones won't do. I know I'll do well with Android, used it for a few years but had hopes for WP8. Perhaps future uprades will provide basic functions/features Andoird and to some extent Apple offers in their products.
Still nothing on this? What the F#$k is wrong with MS? Since MS can't or wont' can we get Nokia to do this, I mean they are doin all the work from MS anyway.
